An invita- tion was received from the Western Rail Road Co., to unite in a celebration of the opening of the road on the 4th March, at Springfield. Several petitions were presented in favor of the re-chartering of the North River Bank. Mr. Swacxuamer presented a petition, praying for the immediate redemption of broken safety fund bank notes, dc.

Itis the best thing that hae happened for some time to arouse the minds of the “family raising community,” to a sensable view of the folly of sending ‘‘Miss in her teens” far from her home, and her “mother’s apron strings” to receive the gilded paraphanalia of fashionable boarding school accomplishments, at some distant inatitution, with far-fetehed teachers and far-fetched studies, and where all sorts of fashionable animals, made up of buckram, starch, moustache and whiskers, im- pudence and fashionable etiquette, have access to them, corrupting their morals and leading them as- effect. _ Ripe ro Atsaxy.—The Mouse of Represente- tives yesterday, voted to accept an invitation of the Directors of the Western Railroad, to visit Al- bany on the 4th of March next, and to meet the New York Legislature at Springfivld ; that the House should adjourn over from Thursday to Sa- turday of next week, and should draw no pay for Fricay.— Boston Transcript.
