Senatorial.

We observe that D. r. Neal, Esq, is
announced in the last Parkersburg News,
as a candidate for the State Senate. A
writer in that paper also recommends the
holding of Convention at Richie Court
House, on Tuesday, the 9th of March, for
the purpose of nominating candidate.
1t is, undoubtedly, the true policy of
the Democratic party of the district, to
hold Convention and nominate candi-
date for the Senate. 1t is the only man
ner of harmonizing the party upon one
man, which is absolutely necessary to Sc
cure its success. We presume that none
will oppose fair Convention; for ourself,
we can say that we always favor them as
the best means of procuring fair express
sion of the wishes of the people, and make
it an invariable rule to support the nomi-
nee of convention. in preference to any
other candidates.
Cooper's Clarksburg register. [volume] (Clarksburg, Va. [W. Va.]) 1851-1861, 1853-01-26

We are not opposed to improvements
in the eastern portion Of the State I'VE
are in favor of them-we are in favor of
completing some of the leading lines from
the seaboard to the Ohio river, and then
establishing the Antwerp, or some similar
line of vessels, to foreign ports. But We
want those most interested to endeavor to
help thelnselves-not depend entirely on
the state-to judiciously use the money
that is appropriated for their benefit. and
not be continually begging the Legisla-
ture for money for themselves, and ever
ready to oppose charters for other inn
provements which ask no money from the
State.

CLARKsBuRe, Jan. rs. 1853,

Mr.. EDITOR Permit me, through the
columns of your paper, to say to the citi-
zens of the corporation of Clarksburg, that
at the instance of some friends, l have
concluded to present myself as a candi-
date for the Office of Constable, at the
election to be held on the Sd Monday in
February next, under recent act of the
Legislature.

Mus1cAL.-Rev. S. L. Bebee will deli
yer a lecture in the Presbyterian Church.
on Tuesday evening, the lst of February
next, at O'Clock, on the Rise and Pro-
gress of the Science of Music. From the
many eulogiums we have heard passed
upon the character of Mr.. Bebee, both as
a minister and private individual, we
do not hesitate 10 say that it will be well
worth the time of every one who has the
advancement of the science at heart, to
be present. We, like Martin Luther, be-
lieve that Music is the art of the Prophets.
and that it is the only art that can calm
the agitation of the soul SCI! and nut the devil
to flight Let him have full house. =

A xc1ESr AND MODERN C,r1k

ANCIENT AND MODERN ClrrEs.-We are
apt to consider London as a considerable
city and New Workers regard their village
as an immense municipality, but if the
mayors of Nineveh and Babylon could re-
visit the earth they would laugh at the
pretensions of the moderns. The area of
Babylon was two hundred and twenty FIVE
square miles and that of Nineveh two hun
dred and sixteen square miles. whilst that
of London and its environs is but one
hundred and fourteen square miles.
