 The following sketch wss handed us by . friend. We hope i. is the commencement of series, which will be generally interesting Though partiality seems so have governed the dclineatious in some cases. they will, for the most part, be acknowledged faithful;

 A Peep at the Legislature. j Entering the Senate Chamber, the eye na-  turally falls on its President, WILLIAM K. SEBASTIAN. He is rnansrather below mid- dle size, with face indicative of goodness; lawyer by profession, and has filled high judicial offices in this State; ready deba- tor, with clear head, and fine legal attain ments. He is peculiarly fitted for a seat on our Supreme Bench. He has many of she elements of gree, man, but lacks decision and boldness. In the contest for the U. s. Senate, he east bis vote for Davis Thomp- son, which brought down on him the ,hun- der cf the Helena Journal. No right think ing man, who is conversant with all the cir cumstances surrounding him, can condemn Sebastian for his vote. Time, which sets all things right will bring him out "right side up." He is, by long odds, the finest orator in either branch of the Legislature. He is a democrat.

 Turning from the President, the eye lights on THoMAs ". NEWTON, the whig Senator from Pulaski; fine looking man, of sound mind, with good business habits. Mir. N. is . fair debater, but belonging .c tAs beisssr- ous school, He settled in Arkansas long time ago, but abandoned ii for Kentucky.- Afier an absence of eight years, he returned to resusci,ate lis fallen fortunes. and lucky has he been. Offices of trust and honor and profit have been actually piled upon him, and he is now aspiring to i'll Tells vacancy.

 Leaving the Senate Chamber, we will pro- ceed to the Representative fall. That fine looking man, who is occupying the Speakers Chair, IS ALpERf RusT, native of the Old Dominion. He is quite young, but a more gallan. leader no party could have. He IS prompt, bold and decided. His errors are those of head and not the heart. He has nc, sufficient caution, neither doe. he calculate sufficiently close the chances Of self-advance- nent, to make good leader for party. He looks not to consequences. IT he deems a measure right, he boldly advocates it. As a speaker, he gives very general satisfaction. A candidate to fiji the vacancy in Yell's case, it would seen strange, if a party, so largely in the majority as the democracy in ,hs State. should overlook hls claims. He is destined to high rcnown. His talents, and grea, personal worth, can no. be kept under.

 Leaving the Speaker, up the aisle, and to bis right, sits CHARLES P. BERTRAND, the member from Pulaski. Charley is small of stature, but big of heart. He is the personi- fcation of whig principles; self-made man, who has resided in this city for more than . quarter of century. He is not eloquent, but most sensible debaser; enc of the mos, useful men in either House. His clear head and sound judgment his business habits and great industry, make him most valuable. He commands great respect, and we'll does he deserve i,

 Immediately in ffont of lte Speaker sits ths Rev. Mr. BRuTox, of Rope;--a deep thinking man, who, when he becomes versed ia parliamentary ruies, will make powerful debatef. He Is democrat, but no par,izan.
