GEN. JAS. G.. BENEFIT


In regard OF Coleman's and Browns, it is settled
that they are both most excellent hotels but the
example Of reorganization, modernzing, and Of
Gothamzing, the hotels OF the seaboard from Bos-
ton to the latitude of Richmond, is due to the
Coleman brotherhood. Indeed, the men OF the
North, in other branches of trade and business,
creating quite reaction in the South. Orlan-
do Fish IL Co., OF your city, have introduced quite
a rivalry among the hat and fashionable nicknack-
cry stores of Washington Mr.. Stevens, agent Of
Mr.. Fish here, desires the measure OF your head
Tor premium hat, as specimen in their line
We have won a hat in the election, and are inde-
pendent


In Virginia, the New York colonsts are rapidly
reviving. the agriculture of the poorest, worn out
lands, OF the most impoverished counties-i Is only
necessary TO mention Fairfax as an example. The
great tide OF progress" like that OF the barbarlans
into Rome, evidently sets in from the North In
farming, in commerce, in the mechanic arts, in the
in newspaper rprise, (the Herald. for instance
the North is l-adiDg the way The age OF clock
pedlars, and Yankee tlnmen, and skulkipg aholi-
ton,sls, in The South, has gone by, and the OF
an honest rivalry IN advancing enterprise has sue
ce-ded. We want more good, practical North
men in the South. They are lnfuslng and dffus-
ing new vigor wherever they go. Give 'em notice
to come along.


Your official correspondent gentleman OF taste,
talents, character and education-wilI advise you
OF certain new movements regarding Mexico and
Texas, Gushing and China, &c The question OF
the annexation of Texas Will lead to most spirited
aud comprehensive re-agltatlon OF the whole sub.
jrct IN the Senate. The people, in the election Of
Polk, being considered having expressed their
assent TO the capitalization between the two cOun-
tres, the friends OF the late treaty in the Senate,
1t thought, will call up that precise project again
for reconsideration In the form of bill. We ex-
pect not. bill, probably, will be introduced in
the House, with various important notifications
Of the Tyler treaty; but will it be passed at the
present session. No, sir IL will be reserved for
the signature of the next President, and for the
more deliberate action of the first long or extra
session of the incoming administration.


The friends of Oregon will not be idle. vigc-
rous effort on the part of the Hooshiers, the Suck
ers, the Wolverines, the Pukes and the men of
Arkansas will be made for that fine territory. The
wagon-road discovered through the Rocky Noun
talns last summer has given new impulse to emf
grafton, and it is predicted that with the protection
OF our Government accorded them, thousands of
movers would shove out to Oregon next Spring
Nor should we be surprised if a proposition were
set aoot for the exchange of California for certain
unredeemed Mexican lndemnities, in part paw
ment. Il would be agood hit. California is finer
country than Oregon-has better climate and
Mexico will never do any thing with it as long as
she elects her President at the point of the bayonet
Let us enlarge the boundaries Of freedom.


Members are arriving slowly. Board is dear in
Washington, and the gentlemen OF the two Houses
are generally prudent and economical men in their
private expenditures.


The great democratic jubilee, several times post
poned, will now come off positively on Wednes-
day, the 9th, if fair Torch-light, transparencies
and an illumination IN the evening. Boz.
