present month the equestrian statue of General
Jacksun, in bronze, will be completed, and placed
on a granite pedestal in Lafayette Square, oppo
site the President's house. The proportions of
this statue are represented as colossal, and the
figure is said to be thrown into a very striking
f attitude. It differs, saVs the letter, from other
equestram statues in the particular of the horse
being self poised. In that of Peter the Great the
horse is supported in tis position by fastening; the
tail to the pedestal. This statue is the first of
bronze ever made in this country,. and, it is said,
will reflect great credit on the. artist, who is a
young American of great genius, Mr. Clark Mills.
The work was ordered by the Democratic Asso
ciation of Washington, and the Government fur
nished the material in several pieces of cannon
that were taken from the British at New Orleans.

Correspondence of thealtimore Patriot.
Washington, Jan. 10, 1849.
I forgot to mention in my letter written
last .evening, the fact, that the Senate yester
day removed the Rev. Mr. Slicer from his
post as Chaplain to that body, and filled the
office with the Rev. Mr. Butler, the Pastor
of one of the Episcopal Churches in this ci
ty. On he 6th ballot the vote stood : for I
Mr. Sheer, 30; for Mr. Butler 30; where!
upon the Vice President gave his casting
vote for Mr. Butler, and elected that pious
and excellent gentleman. '
Although Mr Slicer is a very decided par
tisan, and a sincere believer that the party
ovt of power ought to be in so believing
from instinct, and not from study and Ire
search into the merits of the principle and
masures of the two great parties of the day
j yet it was. not on account of his politics,
that he was proscribed. He belongs to the
party which professes to Delieve in the doc
trine of rotation in office, and, therefore,
may Console himself with the belief that he
will be rotated into place again, one of these
days.
In the Senate, to-day, a warm discussion
was carried' , bv Messrs. Hale and Chase.
on the Nofw.Miitside, and Messrs Clemens
and Butler on the Sduthejrn side-i all ahout
the resolutions of the "ermont Legislature.
There was good speaking all round ; but the
subject was one calculated to interest but few
save the agitators, South and North.
Finally the subject was laid aside, and the
Senate, after a short Executive session, ad
journed over to Monday next.
No Clerk was elected in the House. You
have the ballotings and the result by telegraph.
Mr. Foot, after running up to 103 votes, and
beating Mr. Forney one, on that ballot, was
withdrawn, at his own request, as a: candi
date.
To night the caucusing going on is not
slow. I gather that a Locofoco Clerk will
will be elected to morrow.
Investigations are going on by the 2d and
3d Auditors, in the matter of the extensive
system of forgeries of officers' accounts,
which I alluded to in a former letter. .Some
astounding developments have been made,
which will soon come before the country in
an official shape- ..
How like you Abbott Lawrence t recep
tion in England, and his speech at the Scotch
Benevolent Anniversaay ? Have I not al
ways maintained that he was one of the first
men and soundest statesmen in the conntry ?
As Vice President, as Secretary of the Treas
ury, as Minister Plenipotentiary to any For
eign Nation or distinction, Abbott Lawrence
is the man to acquit himself with high credit
to himself and high hoor to his country.
The 'Senate will soon put a stop to the idle
rumor that Mr. Lawrence is to be rejected.
POTOMAC.
Attaining Wealth Scddeslt By Adver
tisings Men, in this country, often attain wealth'
very suddenly. I his is enected in various ways,
yet in none more speedily, perhaps, than in com
pounding and vending patent nostrums. The
following instances are to the point :
" Brandreth, with his pills, has risen from a
poor man to be a man of extensive fortune. He
has now at Sing Sing a three story factory for
grinding his medicines. Aloes are carried into
it by the ton ' and whole cargoes of the pills are
despatched to every part of the Union, and 'down
everybody's throat. He has expended thirty-five
thousand dollars in a singleyear : for advertisements.
Comstock begun with nothing, but by crowding
his patent medicines, he has bf en able to pur
chase one of the finest houses in Union Place, and
give magnificent soirees, suppers, &.c. Moffat,
adding bitters to pills, has run up a handsome
fortune of 4300,000. Sherman, taking the loz
enger line, has emerged from his little shop in
Nassua street, into a buyer of houses and lots by
the wholesale. I need not mention Swain of
Philadelphia, who by forcing his Panacea into
people's stomachs can afford to buy a single head
pearl for his daughter worth $20,00t0 to prove
that we are a pill-eating and bitters-drinking peo
pie. i
A Hint to Lexicographers to Comb.
As Haynau passes current now as a syn
onym for everthing that is cruel, and wick
ed, and bad, we think the word V heinous"
could be made more expressive jf it were
spelt " Haynaus." The same with the word
heinousness." It would gain greatly in
meaning and cruelty of expression, if it were
to be written, for the future, " Haynausness."
An Interesting Chritmas Dinner.
We understand that ApollosWood ward, Esq.,
of this borough, provided a Christmas Dinner
for his children, grand-children, and great-grand-children,
and had at his table on that
day, a family rising of fifty, to cheer him
with the'iB happy countenances. ; Few per
sons.at the age of seventy-five years, can
boast of as numerous a progeny, and still
fewer of havirig a daughter , scarcely! three
months old ! Besides, if all had been present
who came within the above degrees of rela
tionship, our venerable neighbor might have
almost rivalled Priam of old, not to speculate
in any way upon the future ! .

COMHIUNICATION.
, I fOR THE REGISTER.
1 4 Fort Defiance -Jany 3,-1850.
Mr. Gals t In my communication writ-i
ten 4t the Warm Springs, on the 8th of Nov.
last, 1 1 advanced some reasons why a Rail
Road should be constructed, connecting our
Central Rail Road with the Tennessee and
Virginia Rail Road, by a line running from
Salisbury, through, or near to Statesville, Tayri
lorsyille, Lenoir, and through the Joh n's Riv-'
er Gap or the JiJue Kidge and valley of Wa-i
taugi river, to the Tennessee Rail Road, at
or near Jonesboro', Tennessee. I shall now!
conclude with some further views in connec
tion with that subject.
" t ayetteville, in the communication re
ferred to, was a mispri t, and ahould have
been; Taylor sville, JV. C. My design was,
to present this Road from Salisbury to the
West, as an extension ot our Central Koad ;
as the main stem. of a general system, worthy
of the noblest efforts of a great State leav
ing all the necessary branches to be construc
ted by individual or private enterprise. This
extension, in connection with other Roads
already chartered, would serve directly all
the great interests in the State, and to some
extent, every portion of her citizens. It
would also open much the nearest connec
tion jwith Kentucky and the North-western
Statejs, and quite as near also with Knoxville
and the " far West," for Charleston, Norfolk,
and the Ports of our State, as any practica
ble route connecting with our Central Rail
Road at Salisbury. Should this connection
be made with the Central Rail Road at Ma
jor Rufus Reid's, near Davidsons olleze,
U 1J l.'jui e
me fty&iem wuuiu oe sun more penecu
1 he travelling intercourse between our
State and the West and North-west, would
be united upon c vr wnRoads to which
may , be added the iron-tense travel between
our Federal City and the South-west, espe
cially so long as Virginia refuses a connec
tion through the Valley, with Winchester.
In regard to J? reight, this route would pos
sess fequal or superior advantases to anv in
the Southern States, especially if extended
t T v " n crrr ITenf nlrxr irKam St irnnlt V.-..
,fal Connection with the North-west, and
a continuous and tolerably direct line, pass
ing through every variety of climate and pro
duction in the United States. A highly com
mercial and lucrative interchange of commo
dities would thus be created, and new life
and energy infused on the very day that the
contracts shall be let. Passing too, through
a large section of country possessing superior
advantages in climate and water power for
manufacturing purposes abounding in stone
coalj plaster and sail, also in Inexhaustrbre
supplies of iron ore, pronounced by men of
science equal to any yet discovered, and su
perior to any other on the American Conti
nent All these elements of wealth would
serve to swell the tide of commercial and gen
eral prosperity.
By referring to a good map, it will be se'eftt
that this plan will carry out, in effect, the
cherished plan of our own distinguished and
lamented Ur. Joseph Caldwell ; also, the ori
ginal' design of the Charleston and Cincinna
ti Rail Road, with greater advantages to 6ur
State ; also, the design of the General Gov
ernment, in 1831, in ordefing the survey of a
RoaiJ from Portsmouth, on the Ohio river, to
the I Sbuth-westem extremity of Linville
Mountain, in North Carolina, for the con
struction of which the House of Representa
tives, in 1836, instructed a Committee to en
quire into the expediency of making an ap
propriation. -
The failure of these projects Was manifest
ly attributable to difficulties which do n-A ex-.
ist in the plan proposed, and which have un
fortunately discouraged further efforts. ..The
line: from Portsmouth to Linville, surveyed
by Lieut. Col. S. H Long, Topographical En
gineer, in 1836, was perhaps the most imprac
ticable that could have been selected, for uni
ting the interests of the Southern and North
western States, passing as it did through the
roughest portion of Kentucky and North Car
olina, and almost directly across the moun
tain ranges of Virginia and Tennessee; the
passes through which Col. Long describes as
" not presenting any tolerable coincidence vrith
the line of the contemplated Road" His de
scription of almost the whole route is unfa
vorable, excepting his allusions to the fertile
valleys in the mountains of North Carolina
and Tennessee, and a flattering notice of
Clinch and Holstein Rivers which, he says,
" are to be regarded as channels oj incalcula
ble importance, whether viewed in connection
with our present project, or in reference to
their Juture high destination, which ensures
to one of their vallies, as least, the distinction
of becoming hereafter a portion of the great
thoroughfare, connecting by the most direct,
eaRy, safe and practicable route between the
Cities of New York and New Orleans. Al
though the difficulties and expense of ren
dering these streams navigable, may render
such an object unadvisable or even hopeless,
yet no doidits are entertained, that the facili
ties afforded by their valleys for the con
struction, of Rail Roadtrz.re such as to ensure,
in.allrhuman probability; the eventual acr
complishment of the latter."
Precisely through these " fertile valleys" of N.
Carolina and Tennessee, the Road now proposed
is designed to run ; and the passes through the
mountains do present a remarkable coincidence
with the direction of this route. Passing smooth
ly between the South and Brushy mountain ran
ges, at some point in the valley of the Catawba,
and through the Stone aud Iron mountain ranges
along the banks of Watauga river, to its junction,
with the Tennessee and Virginia Rail Road, I be
lieve there is no very -serious obstacle in the waj ,
except the Blue Ridge, at the John's River gap ;
and there is much reason to believe that this can
be more easily passed thanany other gap of !the
Blue Ridge in the State.Jy tne junction alluded
to, the connection withKnoxville will be comple
ted. Leaving the Virginia and Tennessee Rail
Road at some point above Knoxville, and follow
ing the survey of the Charlotte and Cincinnati
Rail Road, (or possibly a nearer route), the con
nection with Lexington may be also completed;
j It does appear clear to my mind, that this plan
would be one of the greatest importance to the
;welfare of the States of North Carolina, Tennessee
and Kentucky one of vital consequence to the
Rail Road interests of each and a strbnglnrndaf
untom a nona wnicn might prove to oe Vie true
" Keystone" in the arch of this great Republic,
and enable these three States to say with united
voice to ultras, NoTth and South : " thus far'shall
ye go and no further !"
j As this project is truly national in its character,
and a similar one (of far less importance) lias
been recognised as such, by the General Govern
ment ; we might with justice and propriety ap
peal to her for aid : But shall it be said that these
three great States are unequal to the task, with
their own best interests State pride and a lofty
patriotism to stimulate them! Shall it be said
that either of them could not pay a few millions
0f debt when all the great elements of veatih,
with which a kind providence has blest hem,
shall be brought into a state, of activity J Shall
citizens, of North Carolina still say this ! Oh ban

are on the train,, when a negro waiter
runs up, and holding a hat to public gaze,
asks, " What man habvgot the wrong hat?"
A passenger on the platform takes it, and re
peats the question vith as little effect, then
turns it round, and after a slight glance at the
inside, cries, " No. .158 ! who claims the
baggage !" (the miaker had the number of
his store in very large figures) presto,
change ! A Frenchman at the extreme end
of the car jumps up, looks forward, and rush
ing hatless to the door, exclaims, " Numbaire
von hondred fevety-eight, my hat!" takes
it, and goes to his seat, muttering "Ah, ze
hat, moi hat."
The negro desiring an exchange, the pas
senger went to Noi 158, and the following
dialogue ensued H-
" The waiter wants the hat you brought
out."
" Massa Ned's waiting for it." ;
" Ah, mon ami, ie hat, moi hat, numbaire
158"
" Well, where is the other?"
"Ah, me expl?ih you see, me meet at

1 But where the devil is the other hat ?'
Reaching under the seat, he drew forth a
napkin, for a moment looked at it aghast,
and then, with a smile (such as is a French
man's atone) said Ah, mon ami, pardonnez
moi, I zink it vas ze hat ; I take him in moi

Cliaw Shirts. Almost every person has
something of which he prides himself, says the
Olive Branch, and not a few think more of their
dress than any thing else some of one article,
and some of another; and the article is as likely
to be a shirt as it is a dress coat or a new hat, A
clean shirt is everything with one man, while, a
dirty one seems equally the pleasure of another.
Many years ago we heard the following anec
dote of Judge Parsons, of Boston, and Harrison
Gray Otis, who was then a lawyer of the Suffolk
Bar. Gray w.as noted for his clean linen, and
the Judge was' noted for his opposite extreme.
One day when they were together, engaged in
pleasant conversation Gray said,
Judge, please to tell me how often you change
your shirt?'
Once a week,' replied the Judge. How of
ten do you change yours!'
Every day K to be sure' said Gray.
' You must be a dirty fellow, then,' continued
the Judge, to be obliged to change your shirt ev
ery day.,f -4
But it seems other great men have cracked their
jokes on the dignified subject of clean shirts, as
the following anecdotes will show :
The late duke of Norfolk was notorious for the
carelessness of his habits, which occasionally de
generated into something worse than slovenliness.
He complained, one day to . Dudley North, that
he was a martyr to rheumatism, to remove which
he had fruitlessly tried every thing.
Pray, my lord,'; asked North, 'did you ever
try a clean shirt V
Anthony Pasquin, as filthy in person as in
mind, having received a ticket to a masquerade
from Lord Barry more, asked the donor to help
him to an easy disguise.
4 Oh!' said his lordship, 'go in a clean shirt,
Anthony, aud nobody will know you.'

THIS Institution is situated about twoandahalf
miles from tbovillage of Lenoir, Caldwell Coas
ty, North Carolina. It has been in operation about
five years, and is now in a mora flourishing state than
at any former period, tbe number of pupils baring
gradually tecreased. The location is very fine, and
has proved itelf remarkauly healthy, not a solitary in
stance of sickness having occurred among the RecterV
own Children, or tbe pupils boarding in his family,
since the commencement of the School. There is
probably not another place in tbe State where bay
are more pleasantly situated ; more effectually guard
ed against the temptations that beset the young ; er
where they can be more thoroughly educated at s
little expense. They are prepared, if desired, for any
College in the United States, or fitted to enter apasi
any profession, at the exceedingly moderate cess ef
$185 per attnum. This charge covers all necessary
SchKl expenses, except books and Stationary. For
