General Hazen states in a recent nnmber of the North American Review that the area of land suitable for agricultural purposes ?'in the Middle States of tbe great West" is so small, together with tbe insufficient and pre? carious rain fall, that the new States arc eure to decline, while the older members of the Union will reoeive a proportionally larger accession of peo? ple. The New York Herald, in a leader on the "Birth-day of Washington," says: "The guido who accompanies visitors and explains the objects of interest at Mount Yernon, is accustomed to tell every party he condnola that nothing within those revered precincts woo de? faced by the license of soldiers dnring the' war, Confederates and Federals alike paying voluntary homage to the great patriot whose repose there." , THE GREAT SOUTHERN 9BY MBJB.
