Bed romnahoiilJ never have papered walls; ihey shnirld either he fainted, or if of com mm plaster, aiinply whilewashed, two or three times a year. Painted walls allow of iheir being washed frequently, which is posi tively necessary lor health and cleanliness. This cannot lie performed on papeied walls, therefore, let all consider that Ihere should be none of them." Various reasons might be adduced to back up what we have assert ed, hut we think Ihn Hi n' t i e.-es-arj ; Ihe annunciation is just a plainly stated f.ici, a se!f-evi lent one. In papering walls, some tipboisiers and others, as we have known, sometime" em ploy corrupt pnslc, under the wrong impres sion that il makes the piper adhere to the wall mnch better than when freh. Flour paste and glue size are both employed to put on walls for paper, and both ere equally per nicious when put on in what i .raited a lour stair. Il is quite common f.T newly paper ed rooms to have a most unpleasant smell, and when the pnpor hanger ia spoken to on the subject, he will make ihe excuse, "oh, a few Java will set all right Iho smell will soorl go off."' A putrid odor from a newly papered wall is an evidence Unit Ihe paste is corrupt, lhal it emits a gas an f IHuna dan- j gernus lo health, and which Ood has given; our noses to delect, or of what use are llie j at all. There is nothing so sweet as fresh air, not all Ihe perfumed waters ever made can purchase a substitute (nr the pure inodorous almosfphere for a room, by using lliciu as a substitute lo banish the evil smell of putrid paste arisMig from newly papered walls. The ulfensive odor wiil not depart unlit the paste is perfectly dry, h is a very bad plan lo pasle new over old paper on a wall, merely to save trouble by polling llie old off. There are instance on record of disease anil death being caused by gas arising from flie. decay injr pasle of old pa pered walls which had become damp. Rooms should be thoroughly dried after be ii.g ptpered before ihey are inhabited. Some alcohol put into paste prevents fermentation until it diies. No person should allow old pasic to be used for pulling on paper, and tilt n it should be dried as soon as possible af terwards, d.irjifiic .VMtruun. 5l""5v!S25i..wt.- -; 1 c. as s ji s A J w j I- ; , 5 (- - '--I "-j : '-a 'x't '.t -i In r -i -1 ?1 S 'g g 'j -i z 'i 'j t x- II w , f.' w K. . rvs ClV ' -V w "t "Is From llie Southern Planter.

According to lhal paper this giganiie w ork, which is 670 inileslotijr and wonh at least $10,000,000 has become ihe property of less than a dozen individuals without die oull.yv of a sibgln cent from their ow n private pockets. The following concise hislory ol this mat ter will amply repay perusal: " The Stale of Ilhin ts in I8;0, wnh a pop ulation of houl UO.OOl) sin dl farmers, author- izod a loan of 12,1)00,000, or U0O for every family in tlie Slate, to construct public works.

The Stale spent otrttiis work 63.500,000 'and failed. In IH50, the United Slate granted eqnnl lo 2,672,000 a cres of land, within fifieen milts of the route of die road, to aid in ii construction. The dozen gentlemen alluded lo alepped forward and proposed lo the Mate to lake lliese Iknds. and build Ihe mad with it. The State accept- ed ihe offer, and passed an act, l'eb. 1731 incorporating the said gentlemen, and endow ing ihem wilh 2,072,000 acres, and, in addi tion, all the old properly and remains of the Central road. This charier i perpetual, being a mere contract between thu Stain and the Company. In consideration of llie lands, the company is to put the road in operation. After that -it pays the Stale 7 per cent per annum on the grof income, in lieu of taxes, forever. The Stale, hat iheii no control over Ihe Company, and any dispute between them must be sniped in the United States Court, l il y miles ol this road are nearly ready for the rails, and ns soon at the cars run on these fifty mil.-s, the Company ran proceed lo sell ita lands. Now the land are selected in alternate six mile section, the Federal Government reserving the intermediate sections. At ininiim price, die Company's lauds were valued at 14 14)00, 000, more than sufficient to bnild the road; but ihe Feda.al Government ha this Fall, put its alternate sections upon the market, and ihe price have ranged from M to 17 per acre, whore lormcrly they would bring only $1 23. At these prices the land of the Company will bring fully 940,1100.000. . The surface of the couniiy over which the road runs is.one of Ihe moat faroiable fur such structures in be found in the world. Should the road ba built for 920.0000 per mile, which ws (he eosl of ihe Southern Michigan, il aggregate will be 913,000,000. But should the final cost bo some 920,000,000, it will be entirely paid Troin Ihe proceed of the lands donated by the Federal Government. Thai heing the case it follow that the whole road, oppurlen snccs inclusive, comes into the hands of the dozen genllem'n referred lo, without the ex penditure oCone single dollar from their own mi vale norkcls We Ilo not repine al (he good luck of the dozen individuals, who have thus suddenly, and with so utile trouble, liemimo millionaries. but when it is borne; in mind thst their im mense acquisition are the fruit of If gislalive puliation, a tul that the old Slate of the U nion have been robbed of their share in .the public dointtiii. in order lo enrich land jobbers and apecuhinrs, wc may be excused lor look ing with no very favorable rye on this "mag. niiiffnt speculation. e have not the s'ignti'st objection, n a general rule, Ui seeing our neighlr grow rich; but when they wax fat at our expense, and ihrir pockets filled with money, filched from our own purse, we submit that tho trial i too severe for human lo hilar in ail nee, and that we should be sllnwei!, at least the privilege of grumbling Jtiilgo Donglis, of filhbuelering and .land grabbing notoriety rliiim. all Ihe eredit of carrying mroiilili emigres the great Illinois Und grant., lie holds litis, w believe, to hare been hi most l-,r,lli:nit achievement in Hie held ofsiatcsmaiiship.

Thr timely measure of relief has raised Illinois from a conditinn' of bsnkruptry, and given a new and powerful impulse lo her growth and prosperity. When ihe Central Railroad was projootrd, the Slate bad only 40,000 families; it has now 250,000. 'llie road rnns through a country of immense fertility, and the hene ficiul results llui must flow Imm its comple tion are almost beyond Ihe reach of calcula tion. This is a spcelaele which cnmiiiciids itself lo the sober and serious contemplation of llui people of Virginia.

J The public lands are rapidly passing away under the unjust and partial legislation of Congress, and this spoliating policy, we have every rcssoii to believe, will be pressed wilh renewed vigor at no distant day, - I he land pirate forces will soon receive a formidable aciesaion in the person of Colonel Benton, who vows his determination' to transfer, if possible, the whole publio doimin lo the new States, and invites these communities lo rally and stand together upon this issue.
