has not progressed in the rapid ratio which it's
founders SO sanguinely predicted. Although
they may not have anticipated any thing to
compare with the magnifcence and luxury
which in many of the European courts have
almost sufficed to build up a city, yetthcy prob
ably overrated the attractions Of the Govern
ment and Congress. ......... .s.... b..
The greatest drawback upon the prosperity
of the place has been the enormous debt con-
tracted in order to carry out the plan of its
founders for connecting the Potomac and Ohio
rivers. The main burden has, however, been
removed, and, with the completion of the canal
as far as the coal regions, it is hoped that new
element of prosperity will be introduced.
With regard to the Smithsonian Institution
just organized, it was remarked that, if half the
plans are fulfilled, the effect must be, sooner or
later, to concentrate in Washington one of the
largest and best collection in the country, of
books, apparatus and other facilities for the
prosecution of Investigations in science and art,
giving m interest to the place, throughout the
year, for other attractions besides those of mere
political metropolis and attracting thither as
citizens class of men who will give more of
permanence and tone to its shifting society.
In all other points of view--in relation to
health, expense and habits Of living, and acces-
sibility--the judgment of its founders has been
fully confirmed.
1t can never become great city in the ordi-
nary sense of the term, that is to say, it can
never be the seat of very heavy commerce,
and consequently of long rows of warehouses
and striking contrasts between the extremes of
wealth and poverty; but it may become place
for the cultivation of that political union, and
that social intercourse which more than any
thing else unbends the sterner feelings of our
nature, and dispels all sectional prejudices. It's
prosperity will be no unfit emblem Of the pro-
gress of our Republic; for it is now occupied
in about the same proportion with our extended
territory, and every sensible increase to tho
population of the Union adds mite to that of
this city, since it augments the machinery of
government

The NEW COSTUME FOR WOMEN. On Satur-
day afternoon lady made her appearance on
Chestnut street, in the new female costume
short skirt and Turkish trowsers. She elected
general remark and some admiration for her
costume as well as her courage in wearing it.
We have received communication on the sub
jeot of this proposed change in dress, which we
lay before our readers 1t is from the pen of a
gentleman of high standing, the father of
family, and one held in universal esteem. We
present it to our readers as giving the views of
at least one of our best citizens:
Retorm.-We 90 for the rights of women to
certain extent, and especially for their right
to reform their own costume, when they can
make it more convenient, and equally modest
and handsome. Mrs. Bloomer, editor of paper
in the State of New York, called "The Lilly
has determined for herself to discard long skirts
and TO adopt what for little girls are called
'sfrock and trowsers" Thus far we learn that
a few ladies have had courage and independ-
ence enough to adopt this new costume, and we
have noticed with pleasure that one importer at
least has sent out orders for the manufacture
of dress materials with borders suitable for the
new-fashioned skirts
We like Mrs. Boomers independence in lead
ing off in this manner-preferring utility eco
nomy and convenience to fashion-and sincerely
hope she may find many of her sex who will
have the moral courage to follow her example
Our ladies have been entirely too much the
slaves of custom i'll regard to dress. In ar
ranging a suitable costume for the sex, we adj
nit that due regard should be had to modesty
in appearance, and, when this is maintained,
there certainly ought to be no objection to
change which is productive of utility, economy
and convenience. This is emphatically the age
of improvement, and why should it not have
improvements in dress as we'll as in houses, fur
niture, and Thousand other things which add
tothe comfort and happiness Of our species:
If we could only divest ourselves of old pre-
JUDGES, it is very certain that the form and
| figure and action of lady would appear to us
more graceful in the new dress; and that if it
were once generally introduced, we should soon
wonder how it was possible the sex could have
borne so long the membranes and annoyances
of the long trains, subject to be trodden ON and
torn by every passer-by.,

MECHANISM, No I-BY JOSIAH HolRaooK.


The most simple object which can be brought
to view probably is the equilateral triangle-a
figure with three equal sides and angles. 1t is
us curious as it is simple, and because it is
simple. 1t is perhaps the most important ele-
ment of material forms, and the most powerful
instrument for measuring the heavens and the
earth. ltis the element of snow-fakes, in their
greatly multiplied forms; of the crystal of the
diamond and of very numerous mineral sub
stances; Of the honcycomb, and of insect archi-
lecture greatly extended; of the structure Of
numerous leaves of plants, of vegetable fibre,
and Of the mechanism Of vegetables under diff
ferent notifications; ; Of mountain architecture
as sometimes exhibited; and Of natural mechu.-
nism, as produced by the hand of the Creator,
in forms too numerous to be described, and too
beautiful to be conceived. The work of human
skill in greatly multiplied forms, has also this
same most simple figure for its element. The
paving of streets, the structure of floors, the
forming of bed-quilts, the work of the engraver,
the engineer the architect and of artisans and
artists, in their roughest and finest mechanism,
can, not unfrequently, be traced to the equilat-
eral triangle as the starting point.
This same figure, modified by divisions and
combinations, is wholly indispensable as an in
strument for surveying land navigating the
ocean, determining the forms, magnitude, dis
the heavenly bodies.
In making and applying this fruitful element
of material forms and powerful instrument,
both Of human and divine purposes, are brought
into use the slate and pencil, pen, ink, and
paper, scale and divders, the brush and paints,
scissors, knife, saw, plane, chisel, and various
other tools. by these tools, applied to their
appropriate materials, this one most simple of
all figures may be so combined, modified, and
extended as to present forms Of beauty, taste,
and practical utility which cannot possibly fail
to secure the admiration Of the most obdurate
dulness, or to show it's varied and important
uses to every farmer mechanic, and house
keepcr-indeed, to every being having hands,
eyes, and mimi ...... a..a#-
ExPERIMENTs.-Opportu offered to boys
and girls to prepare illustrations of mechanism
in its first elements never fail to afford them
the most delightful Of all amusements; espe-
cially as they thus produce fruits securing the
admiration of their friends. Such specimens
Of juvenile skill, sent, a short time since, from
Washington to a "ScHoLARs' FAIR" i'll New
York, were objects of general admiration by the
crowd of visiters viewing them, and noticed in
strong terms Of commentator by several editors
present on the occasion, in the public journals
under their direction. Mechanical drawing is
now regular exercise in the New York public
Schools as it should be in every school and
every family in all countries.

THE CosDEN MuRDER-Thc Ntrderers Dis
corered.-We learn from gentleman who came
up yesterday afternoon from Chestertown, that
the full particulars of this most brutal murder
have at length been developed, and that the
iends who were the principal actors are among
the persons now confined in the Chestertown
Jail. 1t will be recoected that shortly after
the murder was committed, it was stated that a
certain female in Delaware had intimated that
she knew all about the matter, but al attempts
to find out her whereabouts proved fruitless
until few days since, when it was ascertained
that she was residing in New Jersey. TN FRI
day last she was brought to Kent county, and
upon her representation q man named Shaw
was arrested in New Castle county, Delaware.
and brought to Chestertown on Saturday night
last. On Sunday, Shaw made full confession
acknowledging that he was one of the party at
Cosden's house on the night Of the murder;
that he was induced to go there for plumber
only; that Abe Taylor shot Mr.. Cosden from
the outside, and also shot Mrs. Cosdcn when
she came into the yard that Shelton entered
the house and murdered Miss Cosden, and after
wards went up stairs and killed Miss Webster:
that although Murphy and himself were present
during the time, neither Of them had any thing
to do with the murder He stated that he
SHAW was bitterly opposed to the murder. 1t
will be seen that the statement of Shaw cor
roborates most of the facts alleged by Drum
mond, now in jail, although that individual
varied his statements in regard TO the details so
much that his confession could hardly be cred
tied. Drummond was not one of the party en-
gagged in the murder, as he has always strcnu-
ously asserted and Shaw entirely acquits him
of all participation -Bdltimore 4mcricda Of this
