REMOVAL OF THE UNION OFFICE.

After an occupancy of nearly thirty years the
Union Office has been removed from its old and hon
ored quarters ON street, between 18th and 14th
streets to the new and spacious building, expressly
erected for our use ON the same street. between llth
and 18th streets. The removal was completed yes
terday for it has been the work of weeks, and the
present number of the Ui,ion is issued from
quarters and under such embarrassments and disad-
vanages as will naturally suggest themselves to the
reader For few days to come we shall have to
crave the indulgence OF our friends for all errors of
omission or commission part.
We left the old building from necessity, not
choice for it is endeared by associations of the
most gratifying character and not without pecu
liar interest for our felowcitizens throughout the
country. As simple, unpretending, and even shabby
looking as the old sanctum was and is, it was hon
ored in its day by the frequent friendly visits Of
Presidents jackson, Van Buren, Tyler, Polk, and
Pierce and by most, if not all those distinguished
statesmen who were officially connected with their
respective administrations. Its plain, pine, uncusl
ioned chairs--we have them still--have been occu-
pied by the representatives of the wealth, ge-
MUS power, and intellect of the nation--by foreign
aUlOaSSauorS ana HatlNe
Webster, Clay, Haync, Forsyth, Wright, McDuflie,
and other great and gifted patriots and statesmen
whose fame fills the country and whose memories
are still warmly cherished by grateful and an adj
miring people.
Our new Office is admirably adapted to the grow
ing wants of our growing establishment 1t is fur
nished with all the improvements which have
wrought such vast change in the journalism of the
last ten years; and its location is central could
be obtained and Of convenient access. Whether the
new Office viii be highly honored in the character
Of its visitors the old will not venture to pre-
dict; but do not hesitate to say in all truth and
sincerity, that friends and patrons in all parts of
the counryNorth, South, East, and West--nay
confidently rely upon hearty welcome whenever
they favor us with O visit. We only add that it
shall be our constant endcavor to merit the conf
dence and support which have through the of
so many years been so steadily and generously ex-
tended to the Washington Union by the democratic
party Of the whole country.

PARTING OF THE ATLANTIC CABLE.

The steamer America, which arrived at Halifax
yesterday morning from Liverpool, brings intclli-
gence of the parting of the Atlantic telegraph cable
and the probable abandonment of this great enter
prise, for this season at least This news, coming
it does at the very moment when millions of our cit
izens were looking for despatch announcing the
successful completion of the stupendous work, will
fiji the whole country with regret and disappoint-
ment. The regret, feel sure, will not prove uIl-
availing nor, think, will the disappointment be
long continued The work is in the hands Of men Of
capital of enterprise of science, and of indomable
energy Of character and who cannot and will not
suspend their labors until their great task is crown
ed with perfect success.

GIVING TT UP.

The Montour American, the backrepublican
paper of Montour county, surrenders the political
battle in the following language:
" From present indications there is prospect Of de-
fcating Packer triangular fight must result in the
defeat of the opposition and in present divided
state we feel assured that we have the numerical strength
to succeed if united single ticket We defeated
and rendered powcrcss by the impruden zeal of ultra
republicans and intense Americans. The settled
victon of mind has been that united we stand
divided we fall.
The settled conviction of our mind is that the de-
mocracy of Pennsylvania have clear majority of
from ten thousand to fifteen thousand the black
republicans and knownothings combined, and with
all their forces in the field We venture the predic-
ton that General Packer majority over Judge Will
mot will exceed fifty thousand, fusion no fusion

pERsIsrING IN ERROR.

The Charleston Mercury persists in stating that
the vote in the Kansas democratic convention on
the proposition to submit the State constitution
to the suffrages Of the people was 40 TO d.
persists in giving countcnance to mischievous
telcgraphic blunder which has again and again been
exposed. The correct vote is 40 yeas to one nay.
There is scarcely an intelligent newspaper reader in
the country that is not aware of this fact. 1t may
not be out of place here to addfor the further bene
ft Of the Mercurytnat up to this time the admins

THE ELECTION IN MISSOURI.

The general if not universal impression is that
Col Stewart, the democratic candidate for governor
of Missouri is elected by very small majority. The
st. Louis Republican of the 23d instant says;
We did hope thai returns from the whole State would
have been received in official form before this time
settle definitely the election of governor but in this
VIC have been disappointed The only county heard from
officially yesterday was Adar which gave Stewart 223
majority being three votes less than assigned 70 him
in table and thirty-seven than the Democrat
would concede to him Greene is elsewhere explained,
reduces Ronss vote in that county twenty-five, making
Stewarts present majority twenty four Nodaway- Pc

FINANCES OF TENNESSEE.

From an article in late number OF the Nashville
Daily News, we gather the following facts in relation
10 the finances of Tennessee. The present State
debt proper is $4,l40s56. Besides this she has is
sued eight and half millions in bonds to her rail-
roads. of which she has in progress 1859 miles
in twenty different lines. She has agreed TO issue
81 500 additional bonds to these roads they
progress in tenlnile sections taking first lien
curity. This makes her entire debt present and pro-
spective, S24, ,254 1856, of which over twenty mil
lions 20 for railroads. Each company is required by
act of Legislature to deposte in the Bank of Tennes
ace the amount of interest the bonds apportoned
to il at least fifteen days before il becomes due In
case of failure of such deposite the comptroller is
authorized to pay the interest out OF the State treas
ury The act provides also for sinking fund, re-
quirng the company to begin FIVE years after the com
pIetion of the road and to deposte annually in the
Bank of Tennessee amountl equal to two per cent
of the bonds issued to it, to be applied TO the
dempton and surrender of the same to the State.
The Nashville aud Chattanooga Company, the only
one whose road has been 30 long finished, has paid
$4,000, and will pay $4,000 more to this sinking
fund the present year. The taxable valuation the
State is over three hundred millions of dollars.
