Colonel Webb—regu- Jar army—will, no doubt, entertain the s ition that such a bank would be “indispensable to the succesful operations” of the organ.

Hethought himself bound by consistency, because, in his letter of 1841, he referred with approbation to the exam- ple of Jeflerson, Madison, and Monroe, as men who “neither took nor seemed to take any agency in their own advancement”—and in the same letter quoted Mr. Monroe’s ‘declaration, when urged to bestow an office on one of his own personaliriends, whom he did not-believe qualified—“‘No man con feel more grateful than I do tor personalacts of kind- but in making this appointment, I have a hixh duty to perform, and I must look to the public Now, to make such ridiculous professions as were disposed din! be ie) eh if rer encour- |, was re to them, to coiaoves to convince CY caraiag ‘ones here, the rs and managers of the party, that they were pele ing more than Isr ‘was too bad.

The complimentary ball given to the Misses R., on the eve of their departure for Washington, took place some few evenings since, in the fine spacious rooms of the Richmond Academy, and passed off as pleasantly and happily es the friends of the ladies to whom it was given in compliment cotld have desired. In fact, nothing o¢eurred to mar the general joy of the evening. ‘The ledies looked pretty, as they always do, and the beaux were in trim, and peer opecccayod pleased with each other's ‘We were at s loss which st to admire, gentle, foveliness mt Mise qui ‘the Ne ble beauty of Miss ih or yet the with locks of chert, sweetest of Lenn. inses ie or bb od. ieainct cette? or the lively and’ teens C. ‘around whose bead the victor’ neces iodine 7 ere. old Vii 's dangh- pride and glory, Tent their presence to dec: the Our, re is new ved tire profitable Tas to tbe esti Iai + of blils have been a ‘some 0! von a prin nye Tonge ments, There have been very few, ifany, winded, ‘bes, no useless consumpt: but all seemed anxious to econo. py 9 ‘as practicable, to co the business ‘sent, have & short heesion, and e report to their constitu. state of affairs, or the m aes ects of Ly ge own sing or! oo the minority sie ary sree, Yo a provided spent inoue aya th of time, frarepucaae Tok ‘ could it have ag°. dry, verbore, spec f the Ho!
