DEMOCRATIC PRosPE CTS IN Viz.
GINIA.-We are permitted (sayi
the Washington SentineD to make
the following extract from letter
addressed by distinguished gen.
tleman Of Roanoke county, Virgin
ia, to friend in this city. The
writer says:
"Thank God the know-notl,-
ings consist almost exclusively OF
wings. The democratic party will
present an .unbroken front-more
determined than ever before to do
or die. y The oppo-
sillon begin 10 look as if their hopes

A Good Joke,

The Wing Fusionists were nice
ly caught at the late session of the
the Illinois Legislature. A Demo-
cratic member introduced a resolu-
ton that the Legislature had right
to instruct United States Senators,
and that the latter sought to obey
when the instructions are not repug-
nant to, and inconsistent With, the
Constitution of the United States"
The Wing Fusionists seized hold Of
this bait, it being their intention to
pass some very offensive resolu-
tions of instructions to Mr.. Douglas
on the slavery question, by adopting
it unanimously. No sooSer was it
done than the same Democratic mem.
Der, Mr.. Tanner, offered the follow
ing as sequel to the resolutions al-
luded to above:
Resolued, That as our Senators
voted for the Kansas and Nebraska
Bill, in OBEDIENCE TO THE IN
STRUCTIONS of the last Legisla-
ture, they but discharged a duty
made incumbent on them by said in
structions.
Nothing could equal the chagrin
and establishment of the Wing Flu
sionists when they heard the last res
oiution read. They saw they were
nicely caught, and, as the only way
of getting out of miserable diem
ma, laid it upon the table, and thus
evinced their contempt for the doc
trine Of instructions when it worked
to their disadvantage.

those who doubt that whiggery and

much the candidate OF one as the
other:
Col. GENTRY IN OTHER STATES.

the following: "Hon. nj. P. Gen

He is one of The abIest men in the

Why the 4th of March was Selected

The Portland Advertiser cor
rectiDg the laundering statement
which every year or two goes the
round of the papers to the effect that
the fourth of March was selected as
the beginning of the Presidential term
because it will not fall on Sunday for
three hundred years to come, says:
ssThe selection Of the fourth of
March as the day for the beginning
of the Presidential term, seems to
have been the result of accident.
The old Continental Congress, when
the ratification of the new Constitu-
ton by the necessary number Of States
had been asccrtained, passed a res
olution September 13, 1858, ap-
pointing the first Wednesday Of the
next January. for the Presidential
electors. the first Wednesday Of Feb
uary for the election of President and
Vice President, and the first. Wed
nesday in March as the time for the
organization of the new government.
The first Wednesday Of March hap |
pened to die in the year 1889, the
fourth of March,. and as the ad-
n;nistration which began on that day
Eas limited to four years by the
Constitution, the next and all sue
,eeding administrations have begun

I At u recent convention held in
the district Represented in Com
gressior many years by Hon. George
W. Jones, the following resolution
WAS unanimously adopted:
/ s.Whereas this meeting has heard
with regret that our present distir-
guished representative in Congress,
Hon. George w. Jones, has signi-
fed his intention not to be candi-
date for reelection: therefore,
"Resolued, That since he has
been our representative the course
pursued by him in his untiring ener.
| gy, bis superior business quali6ca-
tons, and his devotion to the con-
stituiion and to democratic princi-
piles, has met our entire approba-
ton, and we deeply regret this me-
cessity which induces him to de-
cline being again a candidate"
Mr.. Jones filled place in Con-
gress which few men are capable OF
supplying. lie was emphatically
the guardian Of the public treasury,
aud if it were possible to compute
the amour; that he has saved to the
government by his sleepless vigi-
lance and his great influence, we
are confident it could only be
counted by millions. Possessed Of
an intimate acquaintance with the
complicated rules of the House, he
availed himself successfully OF his
superior knowledge Of parliament
tary law for the advancement Of the
great objects which he kept con-
slanlly in yiew-the protection Of
The treasury against every species
OF fraudulent or wasteful expendi-
lures. He was no respector Of
persons in his opposition TO appro-
priations which he considered un-
lawful or extravagani. He was as
fearless and determined and perse-
vering as he was vigiIant aud eco
nomical. With him economy in
the public expenditures was a great
cardinal principle, and lie acted up
OH it conscienliously aud unshrink-
ingly on all occasions. He had the
confidence Of all parties in Con-
gress, and his long experience, bis
unoblrusive demeanor, his intimate
acquaintance " IT'D all the business
before Congress, bis uudisputeG dis
interestedness and integrity, and bis
accurate and extensive information,
gave him a power and influence
in tie deliberations Of The House
which few men have ever possessed.
The Withdrawal OF such public
servant from public life is a nation
al loss, and it will be regretted as
well by the democrats of other
States as of his immediate district.
For sometime past il was apparent
to bis friends that bis laborious de- !
votion to his duties as represents
tive was destroying his constitution.
We sincerely hope that he may soon
be restored to the enjoymen; Of Wig
orous health. We see the names
OF four or five talented democrats
spoken OF as probable candidates
TO succeed him, but as yet none Of
them have heeniormally announced.
The district is democratic by a
large majority, and there is no
doubt that an able and true demo-
crat will be elected. The names
mentioned as probable aspirants,
are Major w. Z. Venable and Col.
J. W. Carter, OF Franklin county;
Joel Jones, Esq, of Lincoln coun- {
Iy; and Major w. II. Polk and {
James II. Thomas, Esq, of Maury /,
county. The two latter have here ,
ofore been members Of Congress.

THE MERE MAN OF BusrNEss-Hc who
gives himself up to business, and to business
alone, will find when too late that the spring Of
his mind is broken. He can no longer lift his
thoughts from the ground. Books and knowl-
edge, and wise discourse, and the amenities Of
art, and the cordial of friendship, are like words
in strange tongue. To the hard, smooth sur
face of his soul, nothing genial, graceful or
winning will cling. He c1nnot even purge
his voice of its fawning tone, or pluck from his
face the money getting mask which the child
does not look at without causing to smile
Amid the graces and ornaments Of wealth, he
is like blind man in a picture-gallery. That
which he has done he must continue to do-he
must accumulate riches which he cannot enjoy,
and contemplate the dreary prospect OF growing
old withou, anything to make age venerable OF
attractive; for age without wisdom and with.
out knowledge is the winters cold without the
winters ire.-.N Y Ledger.
