The Nation.

The publishers of this admirable newspa-
per announce that hereafter it will be issued
twice a week ON Wednesdays and Saturdays,
and that each number will contain sixteen
pages instead of thirty as at present. The
object in making this change is to secure great
er freshness for its comments upon political
and commercial topics, thus removing one of
the greatest objections which in this rapid age
attach to weekly paper. The Nation has
now been in existence for something like nine
months, and during that time it has attained
among the political and literary journals of
the country an undisputed pre-eminenee. Its
leading articles are marked by a candor, a
moderation and largeness of view as far re-
moved from all partnership as from laxness OF
Indifference to principle, its communications
and correspondence employ some of the best
pens both at home and abroad, its reviews
and literary notices are marked by great fair
ness and discrimination, and its tone through
out is dignified, honorable and in the best
sense, national From no paper on our list of
exchanges do we more frequently have occa-
sion to quote good thing, a fact Of which our

Portland Harbor Breakwater.

Portland Harbor Breakwater.
The breakwater on Stanford's ledge wa.
never completed to the extent of the origina
design, and its benefits have been only partial
The work was suspended in 1852. At tina,
time there was a gap of 100 feet at the shore
end, left it is understood, for the purpose o.
delivering stone at high water; and 600 feet
on the seaward end had not been completed
bYputting on the cap-stones. The breakwa.
ter has remained in that condition ever since
Everybody who is interested in the security Of
the port will be glad to know that there is a
prospect that the work may soon be resumed
and pushed forward to completion. A very
heavy sea still rolls into the harbor during
northeasterly gales, and can only be efectual-
ly shut out by an extension of the breakwate1
of about 400 feet. The bill for the improve
ment of rivers and harbors, recently reported
to the House of Representatives by the Com
mittee on Commerce, appropriates S105, Ill
for the purpose Of Gaping the uncompleted
work and making the necessary extension
The bill furthermore authorizes the Secretary
Of War to make such surveys as may be desir-
able, and small preliminary survey will
probably be found necessary to determine the
exact direction Of the extension. The general
direction will be about 1So east of north
The direction of the part of the work now
built is about $50 east of north -t--5'lm
1t is probably to the efforts of our Repre-
sentative IN Congress, that we are indebted
for the resumption of this important work.
There is a great deal of work to be done in
Congress, besides making speeches. II is es-,
sential that laws be wisely and prudently
drafted in the committee rooms, in order that
they may be worth defending in debate. And
the only debate that ought to be tolerated in
congress, is that which concerns the merits Of
piiis actually under consideration. The long
speeches inflicted upon the country every Sat-
uaay, under the pretence of considering the
fesiaenfs. annual message, have become a
hoiSance which really calls for abatement. 600
