So, also, bas the Star officea Book Bindery connected with It, equal in its capacity to turn out book bindi: of al descripttions to any other in the District o; Columbia. SPIRIT OF THE MORNING PRESS. The Unron commends Albert Pike, Esq , of Arkansas, for the frankness with which he admits and seprobates the sectionalism of the Northern Know Nothings and the rottenness of their new platform, in an address to the South ern Know Nothings over that gentleman’s initials. The editor, however, is decidedly of opinion that Mr. Pike’s conclusions are singu- larly lame and impotent when his premises are taken into consideration; insomuch as he counsels his political friends to preserve an armed neutrality, rather than to join forces with the Democracy. The Intelligencer, continuing its argument with the Union relative to the arguments used by the Demoeratiec presses and oratorsin the recent New Hampshire canvass, insists that they wore “two faces under a hood’” with reference to the Nebraska bill. ee Mr. Ciiveuan’s Appress.—See first page for the conclusion of this able political paper. New Mvusic.—Hilbus has published some fine new music, which we shall notice to- morrow. PERSONAL. a +++» Mr. Randolph, Col. Kewen, and Mr. Ferror are all talked of at Grerada, as Mr. French's successor at Washington. +++« David White, of Madison, Indiana, an extensive pork packer, has failed. His liabili- ties are snid to be $83,000. +++» Col. Oliver Towles, of Nashville, Tenn., long known ag prominent man in affairs on the Turf, died in Columbia, @a., on the 8th inst. +--+ Iyan Golovin, a Russian exile, who lectured here las winter, is about to issue a newspaper in New York, under the title of European Mail and Ladies’ Newspaper. ptain Bowman, Government Agent jection of locations for New Custom visited Alexandria on Tuesday to ex- Houses, amine the lots offered there for the purpose +++» Professor E. V. Scherb, late of the Uni- versity of Georgia, is delivering in Boston a course cf eight lectures on ‘‘ The Great Reli- ious and Philosophical Poems of Modern Times.’” February last, on a visit te Eng- land, and there is some reason to believe that he will visit the United States before his return home. ++++Mr. Cone, of Peru, Berkshire county, Masz., lives in a house one and a half stories high, which is so completely covered by a hugh drift, that it has been found necessary fo dig atunnel thirty-seven feet in length, from the door in order to give persons inside a chance to get out. +++» Madame George Sand, who is becoming universal, is writing a pantomine. She has finished her ‘‘Memoirs of My Life,’’ caused to be represented at the Odeon her play of «Maitre Favilla,”’ commenced a new romance in the Presse, given a new play entitled “Lu- cie to the Gymnase,’’ and has in rehearsal the poy of ‘Francoise at the Francais."’ Total -- Rufus Choate's great lecture at Boston, on Monday night last, was not devoted exclu- sively to the ‘* Last Days of Rogers,’’ but to his position as the last of the race of brilliant poets to whose works the world of readers was s0 much indebted. The lecturer said that on behalf of those readers he had appeared, and his theme properly would be the expression of their obligation. Never did gratitude find more elcquent expreszion. +++» Col. Ward B. Burnett, in relation to a Proposition, that the State Legislature vote a sword to each of the surviving officers of the N. Y. Regiment, that served under him in the Mexican war—suggests that the thing be not thought of—until the Legislature discharge the debt which he says, (but without specifi- cation already owes to the officers in ques- tion. The gallant Colonel hints that the “sur- vivors’’ are more in need of something to eat, end something to wear—than a sword. +++» Col. Faller calls the whole system of Mercantile espionage, whose headquarters are in the holy “Trinity Buildings” o New York, a8 contemptible in spirit as it is injurious in practice. To send a parcel of sneaks about the country, prying into every man’s business, investigating his private habits and relations; counting the number of segars he emokes, the glasses he drinks, the new coats he wears; and even into bis daily domestic expen: in- cluding his market and ‘ocery bills, an pars upon private rights and liberties that shoyld be promptly punished by the strong arm of the law . Gerrit Smith, at a recent Kansas meet- ing in Albany, N. Y., was chosen as the man of most dollars, to rule the roost. He had pronounced ontempt of the Republican movement. He also pronounced his contempt for the Missouri Compromise, for President Tyler, “the shameless Fillmore,”” for Henry Clay, who first m lavery Nation: Chase, because he had not, in the case of claim for renditi called out the milita and driven the Kentucky kidnappers out of the State, or shot them down. Slavery wasa wolf, it bad no right except the right to be killed. He derided the Submission of the Kansas people, to the forms of law. He said they must resist, and we must stand by them. . eine :2 Norrotx axp Porrsuovva —The corn mar- ket of Norfolk was very active Saturday. The a Dotices sales of 10,000 bushels yellow at 60 cents, 12,000 bushels white at 58 cents, and 4.000 mixed at 57 cents. A meeting was called through the Norfolk Press for Satur- day night to consid Some means to relieve the city from ‘legislative oppression.’” The Portemouth Trarscript, in noticin the call suggests the consolidation of the city and ar- nexation to North Carolina.
