supervision of Mr.. & Mrs. D. s. Richardson, aided
by Thomas Marshall, A. B., and several other COM

We are glad to say that the large and commodi-
GUS new Seminary is now assuming the appearance
of completion. The old Seminary will be used un-

speak for Mr.. Mrs Richardson large school, as
they well deserve the patronage Of parents and 9TH

GREELEY, of the Tribune, who was once a men,
Der of Congress, gives the following account of the
annoyance to which an Honorable representative
is subjected:
I'VE cannot comprehend the passion for a seat in
Congress. What is it to be an honorable member?
We will tell the reader what it is 1t is to live in
mean hotels and pay magnificent Bills it is to be
obliged to breathe bad air, TO sit in an uncomforta-
BILE seat, to be bored by long speeches. TO be impor
tuned for pamphlets, to attend to the business of
other people, neglecting ones own; to exist in per-
petual fuss of ranking, to watch your districts
much more closely than you watch the kingdom of
Heaven; to miss your nights rest, to be slandcred
to be bothered to be importuned, to be embar-
raised land, the Honorable Horace might have
added from his own experience, to be horse-whpped
for his Insolvency to make speeches listened to by
nobody, to mail them to everybody to be read bv
nobody. to frank until your arm aches and to miss
the greatest growler in the District at last Others
are proptated, but he is offended He has the soul
of forty conventions bubbling boiling and bursting
in his manly bosom. He appeals to committees;
he is the flea of conventions; he is the man who
goes out when he is wanted and who comes in to
speak and to vote when he is not wanted who
growls when he should grin, is when he should
be amiable, is always in the way, and always hard
to get out of the way; and who caps the climax of
his absurdity and bother alton by setting up a small
party upon his own hook, or by going over bodily,
and with all his baggage to the unfortunate enemy
up there in unexpected places after little town
and county training, they are ready for anything;
season in the Legislature fits them for dozen diff.
icult seasons in Washington; and they are spoiled
for all purposes Of utility. They can no longer keep
shop; they can no longer make shoes; they are
idle save for public work, and they are dumb save
for public talk they become fussy and fretful, and
whether they get to Congress do not get there,
they are the torment of society. Two-thirds of
their ielow-citzens care nothing either for their
failure or success; but they manage to have every
body by the ears before the canvass is over. The
whole thing becomes WEAKNESS and scandal {;
and It's very fortunate if no ProSlavery member
slips in, while the most orthodox characters are
squabbling for the succession. We advise our enc.
mics, the Administration men, to make the most of
this folly. There Districts which they may pos
sibly carry, unless our friends please to act like
wise men. One might think that Mr.. Burlingames
District was worth saving, it being perfectly certain
that either the incumbent or a hard.shell Hunker
must 60 back"
Greedy has very just appreciation of his own
party and the elements Of which it consists The
administration men will probably take Horace's ad-
vice in this instance and elect one or two members
of Congress from Massachusetts.

RAILROADS IN TENNEssEE.-Yesterday had q
conversation with Col. Payne, State Commissioner Of
Roads and learned that there will be more iron laid
in Tennessee this year than has ever been laid in one
year.
Col. Payne says too, that there will be more road
bed prepared for the iron this year than ever before
in the same time. This is very remarkable con-
diton of things, and it shows the astonishing resour
ces of our people, who despite the extraordinary
pressure of the past twelve months have been stead
ly pushing SO large an addition of the road i'm
provement.
An additional item of interest which gather
from COL Payne, is that there is now in active ope-
ration in this State go miles of railroad that, by
the first of January next, there will be S75 miles
running; and that by the first of January 1860, the
number of miles in active operation will be 1l46.
COL Paynes entire familiarity with the progress and
condition of roads in this State renders the above
statement perfectly rel;ably.-Aemphis Eagle and
Enquirer, august IA.

OREGoN-A letter to the Philadelphia "Press'

says:
"Oregon is preparing to come in as State soon
after the meeting of the next session of Congress.
United States Senators have been elected. and all
the arrangements for State Government have al
ready been provided The population Of Oregon is,
it is said, rising $4,000, whereas 90, 900 is required
for Representative in the lower House. How it
may be said, can Oregon expect an enhancement of
its numbers when California throughout her length
and breadth, complains of lack of muscle? 1t is
expected that to the bill for the admission of Oregon
an amendment will be proposed for the admission of
Kansas.

OPINIONS OF THE PREss-From the opinions ex-
pressed by the Press throughout the country far and
wide, it seems that the character of friends
Samuel Swan Co., and the reliability of their Lot
terry institution is by means problematical Facts
stubborn things, and it is impossible to get
the mass of evidence in their favor, touching the
whole business management of their concern If
their enemies could single out the first questionable
act it would crafty them, doubt but they cannot
do SO. The Messrs. Swan Co. know their position,
deal honorably, pay promptly. and have gained
reputation which places them altogether beyond the
reach of the most vindictve foe.
PASSING AwAY.-Littleton Waller Tazewell, of
Norfolk is believed to be the only surviving men,
Der of the memorable Virginia Legislatures Of 1898
's9, and 1899, 1900. Maj. Yancey, Of Buckingham,
died last year, and Maj. holland, Of Loudon, a year
or two previous. ....--
Of the 4s Senators who took their seats in the
eighteenth Congress in 1928. but two survive, viz
Martin Van Buren, Of New York. and John Branch

NATIONAL WEALTH-From the last number of
DeBow's Reuiew we take paragraph which pre-.
sents summary of the aggregate wealth of the
United States which is worthy of preservation 1t
will be that the agricultural wealth is by far
the larger item in the list and considering the vast
expanse of country which is yet unbroken by the
plough, and from which no golden Larvests are
cleaned. we may we'll wonder what our national
wealth may be at the end of twenty years, if anat
cism will allow us to continue nation so long.
We have neither space leisure to indulge in spec
ulations which would otherwise be agreeable, and
