Ladies Re- vlosltory 1 i T7e Hall of Representatives. A mem 1 ber of Congress, writing to his paper from Washington, iu regard to the Hall cf the J House of Representatives, says: "An old member has an immense advan I tage over a new one in this respect, viz: ( he knaws how to select a seat. This ad vantage consists not in comfort or conve nience ; for all are alike in this respect. i Nor in the advantage of making a speech ; "Much advantage depends upon ma king the right motion at the right time. In getting the Speaker's ear, there is the greatest possible difference in the fate of and hence a good seat may determine the fate of a very important measure. Ex perianced members, however, can turn the poor seats to very good advantage by different modifications of the voice and different turns ofthe body. Yet all this is a matter of great care as well as incon venience. "It is not generally konwn that so poor ly were the principles of acoustics consul ted in the construction of the ball, that two men may be whispering together so low that their next neighbor cannot hear them, and yet all they say is distinctly heard on the opposite side of the House, - . . . Men often address the Speaker on one side ofthe House and he turns bis eye to rec ognise them on the opposite side, mista king the echo for the voice itself. A gen tleman who was occupying the Speaker's chair many years since, told me that he had heard in his seat, imid a warm de bate below, the whisperings of a young man in what is called "the love corner" of . t. 1 ., .1 . . 1 1 . . c r r f-: r..-.rirwi wiciauirs g-nj, uw a9HWMU6iu''- sals to a young lady in so low a tone thai her own mother did not know what was r ..r, c;.i r. -I was at. wn wn. iuiuwu1""' - tending to her duties, and she was atten- ding to mine. 1 was listening to the very imrmriant Hp.h;if between her daughter andr lover, whilst she was listening, to lips.

' ; ----- ' PI 1 INTERS, NOTICES. i ., 1 Among the most amusing - portions of the columns of every paper arc these no tices which occasionally nppear at!!the head, in a most prominent and conspicu ous position, requesting the subscribers lo said papers to pay up their subscriptions. The tone of these duns presents a marked contrast to the laconic and decided style of those which tradi-smen and others- put forth in advertising columns, and in which they briefly but explicitly inform their debtors that, unless their accounts are, -speedily adjusted, they will be put in the hands of an officer for collection. Tha printer on the contrary, speaks in a rhod est and deprecatory manner, asif be were' in danger of committing a nftoral sin by reminding his subscribers that something more is necessary to the patronage of a paper than a name and an unredeemed promise to pay. Such is generally1 the character of his first notices. Rut finding N ' that these do not succeed, and discovering that, of those who are indebted to hinT probably 90 out of a hundred amuse themselves with his greenness in expect ing to collect cash with a few soft words, our printer waxeth wroth, and issues an other pronunciamcnto full of fire and fury. He tells his obdurate debtors that printers cannot live on air; that the paper maker must be paid ; type, ink, fuel, light, rents. ! &c.. cost money; so docs live printers daily bread and finally he exclaims jn a tone that he expects will rend the very rocks, we want money and we must have it." Rut unfortunate mortal he is a printer, and printers are the last men in the world to resort to compulsory mea sures. It is the general impression that their " bark is worse than tbdr bite1- so they lose thousands where other men would not lose hundreds. We would jiko to see an accurate statement ofthe losses sustained by newspaper establishments from the neglect and procrastination of their patrons. We think we may safely, conjecture that no other employment or profession suffers so much loss. Could those who thoughtlessly defer or altogeth er omit to pay their newspaper accounts -reflect upon the trouble, difficulty and sometimrs ruin, their negligence occa sions, they would learn to observe justice, punctuality and system as strictly 'with newspaper establishments as with mer chants and mechanics.

Mr. Miller was a native of Pittsfield. (Mass.) and during the last war with Eng land served as a Captain of Volunteers on me northern lroniier. He began to speaK .n public assemblies upon the sub ject of the Millennium in 1833, and in the ten years which preceded the time which' he had set for the confirmation of the pro phecy, he labored assiduously in the Mid-' ,dle and Northern States, averaging, it is ! said, nearly one sermon a day for more than half that period. lie was uneduca ted, and not largely read in even the com mon English commentaries; his views' were absurd, and supported but feebly ; yet he succeded in building up a cect of some thirty or forty thousand dtcciples, which disappeared rapidlyafter the close of the ,kday of probation" in 1813, after 1 'which time Mr. Miller .himself did not often advocate or defend h'rs views I in " public.
