Southern Members Of Congress

iti -i permdoí commercial distress, the Northern Member of Congresg, as ho returns to h9cons(ituent3,sceSevery where the evüs they endure. In tho deseited atreetsof onuo crowded cities; in sioreá tenantless; anti by all the various forms by wiiich a decay ofprosperity is usuaily tnanifested in mhantile and mqao'facturingcommuniiies. But the Southcin member of Congres vhen he returns to lus coiistifuonls sees none of these things. All that he does see looka as it ahvuys did. lío sees ihe saine Lornhardy popInra wuving over the house whece hr, and iss iallier, and his nncestora wcre bom. The saine rickety coachc.-; rytiibjing aboul the same bad roads as they did in the cl.ivs. oí hjs boyhood. The same old negroe?, looking as if they wcri'd never die, sunning thcmselves outsidc iho "quarteiV'and gurolous with the recolleclion of the past; und iheenme worm fences, lean catíle,and worn out soil (hat he has always seen. IÜ3 overscer Icèis him Ihat 'he baa put ihe field in corn which was n follovv last year, ihat the fíy is in the wheat, and the worm ín th tobáceo, that Poly'a Jim has'he aguo, and that oíd mammy Kato s clead. Elis neighbor comea in to see him, and tell him tSiat Clayton Randolph, of Powhatan, has cliallenged a son of Col. Dangerfield; that Torn Grayson's colt out of Anetta by Prlam, won tho faur míle heat at the late races. That his friend Montford s ruined by going security for Frank Carter, and tbat Ned Walker isgoing to mnrry General Sluarts e'dest daughter. He sees at dinner the same hountifu! 6üp'p!y of the good irungs of thig life, for which his country is famou?, and wondersbow any body can coinpbin of liar limes when there is lish and oysters in the river, and plenty of negroc3 to brin thern to your door for notlüng. Such nïan can have no sytnptrUiy vrdh the so ciety or the pursui!5 of those who in!:abi the Northern and Miridie St3les. He see no necesiiy for regulating tlie exchanges or for a uniform etirrency. If he wants a jquarter cask of Madeira from Norfolk o iRichmond, hc sends down a load of tobáceo or corn. If he ia hard pushed 'or mon lc', he selts oíFa negro or l'.vo. And as i ís vvith him so it is with his neighbors. - They are hmegeneous in their pursnits They live apart on their estajes, and do not congrégate into towna as we do. A villago is their abhorrence,íind a man who shouldbuiJd hi-i house upon ihe main roac would bc considered as insane.
