THE BUCKLAND MANUFACToRY.-We spoke
a few DAYS ago of Wooden Goods manufactured
at the auckland Factory, judging from hand
some specimen OF all wool-merino-cloth, that
we had seen, and been presented with. 1t was
a first attempt at all wool fabries-but 1t was
highly successful one We understand that
the propretors are enlarging their Factory, by
new buildings and machinery, and expect by
the first of December to be prepared to manu-
facture goods, in texture and finish, equal TO
auy made in this country. And they will, we
have no doubt, realize fully their expectations.
The piece OF goods we have, excellent as 1t is,
will be improved 80 per cent, when the ma
chinery adapted to its manufacture IS finally
adjusted. The proprietors further hope-and
may their wishes be amply iul6lled-to make
their establishment equal to any in Virginia,
in the quality of all the goods turned out there.
Their superintendent is a competent and skiltul
manufacturer, acquainted with the business in
all its details, and capable of the execution OF
the very best work We need not say that we
appreciate the benefits ct all such establish
ments in our State-and how grati6ed we are
to see them springing up in the neighboring
counties We trust this one at auckland will
become one of the institutions of old Vir-
GINA, and be source of profit and honor to its
owners, and all engaged
The Buckland Factory is at Buckland, Prince
William county, Va, and its proprietors are
Messrs John B. Huuton & Co.

ALEXANDRIA WORKMANSHIP In the beau
tiful study hall of ST. Mary's Academy, on N.
Fairfax street, itself one of the most elegant
school rooms we remember to have seen any
where, we were shown yesterday some elegant,
new, double desks, just manufactured for the
Institution by Messrs. Green & Brother. They
are Of the Boston style, supported on beautl-
fully ornamented, cast-iron pedcstals, painted
green, and are finely grained, in imitation oil
oak. The chairs are supported on iron cyin-
ders, are grained to match the desks, and the
general appearance of the whole room thus fur
nished is calculated to produce most agree
able impression on those who enter 1t, The
entire work was executed here,sthe castings
having been obtained from the foundry OF
Messrs. Jameson & Collins; and the cost Of
the desks was somewhat cheaper than they
could have been obtained at the North
Teachers in Virginia who want school furniture
made should send to Alexandria; they will not
regret it.

His reason for refusing to interfere is, that

One of the editors of the Washington Star,
lately travelling in the West writes from St.
Louis as follows" People out here have q set
tied conviction that the seat of Government
will be removed here or hereabouts within the
next twenty years They say that they will
have it, not to give Importance to any particu-
lar city or locality, but as an emblem that the
seat of empire is 10 the Mississippi valley. The
capital, they hold, will come to them natural
ly and inevitably in the course of a few years. y
