OUR NEW VOLUME.

One year ago we commenced the publication
of this paper and have faithfully completed the
first volume. Our labors have been relieved
by cordial support on the part of number Of
individuals, and by the public generally. We
now eEter upon new year, and hope that our
patronage will gradually increase, as it steadily
has since the first. No paper in the state has
a better paying list than we. Nearly all have
paid in advance for the first year; and the few
that have not, We feel assured are ready to do so
when called on-by the way we hope they wall
hold themselves in readiness.
As heretofore, our paper shall continue to
advocate whatever may tend to promote the
great industrial interests of the people
We believe that the building up of Manufacto
rieS and the improvement of Agriculture in E.

to increase our population and general prosper

Ihes. II. Galloway, Esq, former President Of
the East Tennessee and Georgia rail road re
signed that Office in September last and C.
Wallace, Esq, of Knoxville, was elected to fill
the vacancy. Mr.. Galloway has filed the Office
OF President OF the road for about two years
during which time he has conducted the affairs
OF the Company with much efficiency and great
ly to the satisfaction of the stockholders: who
we're anxious to retain his services, but his pri-
Vate aiiairs beng OF an engrossng nature, de-
naanded his whole attention, and caused his res
,gnanon. The well kncwn character of Mr..
wallace, as an energetic business man. is an
earnest that the efficient policy of Nh. Galloway
Will be carried out, and that the Stockholders
and community will not suffer by the change.
This road has been in operation to Ioudon.
eightytwo miles, for about one year. and is now
being pushed forward to Knoxville with great
energy. The construction Of the BRIDE over
the Tennessee river will cause some delaS in that
extension. The contract of Messrs, Gattvs &
Co, for this work, has, by mutual agreement of
the parties, been annaiicd; the masonry has
been reiet to MeSsrs, Seward & Hobart the eff:
hcIent contractors for the bridge eff lie Mem
pins and Charleston road over the sane river
at Decatur Ala, and to Mr.. George Sapsw. well
known upon southern roads as an enerrttic and
experienced builder. Messrs Maxwell Briggs
u Co., have the Superstructure. Thee con-
tracts will ensure the completion of the bridge
early next summer.
Mr.. Wallace with Mr.. Prichard the enrineer
OF the road, have recently closed contnct in
tins city n. Y J on very favorable terms, with
Messrs. Raymond & Fullerton, for the irol rails
necessary for the completion of the rod to
Knoxville, TO be delivered in the spring. This
will enable the contractors for the track il com
plete the road by the time the bridge is finished:
and the entire road to Knoxville will be opened
by the lst of September next. Above Knox
vile the East Tennessee and Virginia road is
progressing with great energy, and is expected
that thirty miles will be read, for the rails as
soon as the lower road can deliver then to
Knoxville. The remaining portion of the road
is in state of forwar1ness sufficient TO warrant
the assertion that the whole track will belaid
continuously from Knoxville without any DELAY.
and will be completed by the the first of Sep.
tcmber. 1855, to the state line of Virginia By
this time the Virginia and Tennessee road from
Lynchourg will have reached the same point
This will complete the great inland air line
rail road from New Y ork to New Orleans. Its
gratifying to learn that the different companies
forming this line are in excellent financial posi-
ton, and will be able to push on their works il
spite OF all present or prospective stringency ii

Baltimore Platform, the Presidet's Inaugural,

those National Democrats who nominated and
elected Gen. Pierce. They also declare that
though they have confidence in President
Pierce. his appointments in Essex county

gE7% The Editor of the Rogersville Times, in
one of his letters from Nashville, published in
his paper of the 18th inst, speaking of the
election of Public Printer, makes the following
strictives upon the action of certain gentlemen
who did not vote as he wished them to-
II regret exceedingly to tell you that Maj. NJ.
S. Temple, one of our immediate representa-
tives, and Senator Bewley voted against me-
Mr.. Hubbard of Jefferson also voted against me,
though had asked him to 90 for me. White
and DIR. Carriger and Mr.. Ellis of Granger are
noble fellows. They shall not be forgotten. AS
to Mai. Temple. probably no man in Hawkins,
Hancock, Greene, or Jefferson supported him
more cordially than / in the election last
summer. have my reward and no thanks to
Mgj. Temple.
This is a manifestation of M:feeling we did
not expect to see from our friend Poats,-espe-
cially as he had proved successful. Had he
been defeated, under the circumstances, he
could have had no Just grounds of complaint
against Messrs. Temple, Hubbard, and Bewley.
They did nothing but their duty-to themselves
to Mr.. Poats-and to others who were equally
with Mr.. Poats entitled to their favor.
1t was understood that the Rogersville Times
coud not get any thing from the Nashville COM
bination; and in the absence of Mr.. Poats, who
had not then arrived at Nashville, Messrs. White
and Temple placed his name in the combina-
ton of Moseley & Co.,and were pledged to that
Ticket Some time after his arrival Mr. Poats
withdrew from the Moseley combination and
joined the other side, and thus compelled these
men to vote against him, or else to satisfy their
previous pledges.

THE MEETING
BY MRS. s. BELLE POLAND,

--,'' % DEbl1L rOLANn
Apart from thee my bosom bounds
10 the fond heur our lips shall meet"
Oh! have watched and waited for thy coming.
with eager look, and anxious trusting heart
And by this throbbing tumult in my bosom,
Thou art know full well of life part.
Yes! since the dawn I've looked and listened fer
While every sound falls upon my ear, Tthee;
But makes me quickly start with Joy and gladness,
Then sadly sigh; to think thou art not here.
Oh! have learned to love thy highest whisper,
Thy calmest words, to me are words of bliss,
long to ashland have thee answer truly
If theu hast known for me- love like this.
Thou art the light that brightens all the future.
The beacon star, that leads me trembling on,
If thou withdraw thy smiles of heavenly sweetness.
Then all my dreams of joy on earth are gone.
1t seems an age since las: I sat beside thee;
Since last clasped thy gentle hand in mine;
And strove in vain, to say how well loved thee
Or how Iprized those low breathed words of thine
My eyes are growing weary with their watching,
My heart is heavy with its weight of pain
Yet thy sweet words at parting were-''at sunset
Where we have met so oft--wen meet again.
Be still my heart? thy weary watch is ended,
Thou needs st not tremble now, with doubt rpain,
For see, my fond one comes once more to meet me,
This heightened vigil has not been in vain.
Now joy TO me, once more thou art beside me,
Our lips have met in one pure thrilling kiss
Thy gentle words and loving fond caresses
Are all I ask, to share on earth of bliss.

The Senator from I5nnessee.-The Lepisla-
ture OF Tennessee, now in session at Nashville
has again elected John Bell to the U. S. Senate.
This Is the second term for which Mr. Bell has
been chosen to a seat in that body, and we
take occasion to express our approval of the
principle on which the majority of the General
Assembly are understood to have acted in pre-
fering Mr.. Bell, to his distinguished and very
worthy competitors. Col. Nelson and Mai.
Henry-namely, that when candidates are all
men of tried capacity, honesty and fidelity,
experience IN public affairs constitutes an add.
tiOnal recommendation which ought not to be
overlooked. Mr. Bell has been in the national
councils nearly thirty years-was Speaker OF
House of esentatives,--Secretary of War.
and always leading man in Congressional
committees, and chief debater on great cues.
tons of Foreign and Domestic Policy. With
out cOndescending to engage in the little low
contentious of the hour, between extreme par.
ties, his voice has always been heard on every
really momentouS National subject. On such
occasions he is always listened 10 with interest
and with instruction. His speech upon the
Policy of Intervention was universally regarded
as the most statesman-like production of the
last Congress. But his address to the citizens
of Tennessee, delivered IN o2A II
known as ''the Vauxhal Speech" is the noblest
effort of his oratorical and political wisdom
1t is a lofty and solemn rebuke to the madness
of Party and contains much that is applicable
to the present times.
We cannot but regard it as creditable to the
people of his native State, and advantageous to
the Nation, to retain the services of such a
man; and this, we doubt not, will be the prevail
ing sentiment throughout the Union. Never
an uncandid partisan, and now tempered by
advancing age, Mr.. Bell will undoubtedly give
the administration always "fair play and an
independent support, whenever, in his Judge
ment, its measures tend to promote the public
good Gin. Commercial.

A gentleman having a remarkable long visage,
was one day riding by school, at the gate of
which he overheard young Sheridan say to an
other lad
That gentleman's face is longer than his
life.'
Struck by the strangeness of this rude OBJ
servation, the man turned his horses head, and
requested an explanation.
Sir said the boy, Il meant no offence in the
world: but have read in the Bible that mans
life is but span, and l am sure your face is
double that length.
The gentleman could not help laughing, and
he threw the lad sixpence for his wit.

When Mr. Gallatin was member Of Con-

ted as a State into the Union, and sent her first
Congressman to Washington. One day, while
in his seat in the House, Mr.. Gailatin noticed
tall. lank, uncouth looking individual, with
long locks of hair hanging over his brows and
face, while queue hung down his back, tied
with an eel-skin. The dress of this individual
was singular-his manner and department that
of backwoodsman. The appearance of so
singular character on the floor of the House
of Representatives naturally attracted attention,
and a member by his side ehquired who this
strange genius was. Mr.. Gallatin replied that
it was a member from the new State. "Weli'
