Of komhug, called his into reputation. The
e.rticle had been found to answer when u-ed
with woolly horses and unicorns; but it wore
it4elf out in couple Of months at the Crystal
Palace. Puffs, posters, flaming advertsem nts,
rammoth concerts, and pathetic appeals to the
lahoriDg classes were fred Il in rapid succes-
sion but like the rock ts on Q Fourth,
though the dirplay was brilliant for the mo-
ment, it scon faded into utter darkness and
silence. Then the Snowman gave IL up, and 1t
became clear that humbug eouldn save It.
The last scene in this strange eventful history
has yet to come, namely, the aucti1n of the
effects of the dear departed. The sooner the
better the case demands final requieseat in
mace.

HE WASHINGTON CITY WATER 0RKS.-The
House Of Representatives, after voting ten mil.
lions of dollars for the Gadsden treaty, and
half million for custom houses located from q
thousand to fifteen hundred miles from salt
water, rejected the appropriation of s5O0,O0O
for the water works Of Washington city, by a
vote Of 81 to 60.
These works have been commenced, and one
appropriation of 100000 has been expended
upon them. The plan adopted is an aqueduc,
tapping the Potomac river ct the head of the
Great Falls, fourteen miles above Washington
and the whole cost Of bringing the water to the
city in the greatest abundance, has been vari
ously estimated at from three to FIVE millions
We have had some reports of the mismanage.

plan-of the want of confidence in the parties
having the work in hand; but all sides admi,
the necessity Of securing against fire the public
buildings and the public archives In Washing
ton, by convenient and bountiful supply Of
water. It is the duty of Congress to make this
provision in behalf Of the government, the
treasury, the capital Of the republic, the Con-
grese, tie citizens and strangers in the city,
and for the credit Of the country at large.
Nothing is lost by appropriations TO the federal
capital, which, while they subserve the purposes
of the government, contribute to make
the city attractive, worthy Of the grandeur
and resources Of the Union, and better
able to support itself. As piece Of specula-
ton, the proposed water works would pay the
government in the increased value Of its vast
amount Of real estate, In the shape Of house
lots located in various parts Of the city. Pri-
vate property owners, In this view, would no
doubt be ready TO contribute . fair per cent
age.
These water works are said 10 be an admins
tration project. If 20, there must be screw
loose somewhere. The ten millions of the Gads-
den treaty were carried through easily enough.

ministraticn candidate for Mayor, nything to

real estate Of property owners and Of the trea-
surys 1t might shame the House into a sense
Of duty. We. are rather inclined, however, to
think that splendid corporation banquet and

IL Dr. YOUNG who is celebrated for curing
all private complaints of both sexes, has discov-
cred remedy for the cure of old long standing
cases of Gonorrhoea and elects, which he has tried
in more than one hundred cases, successfully many
of which had baffled the skill of eminent physi-
clans for years and in not one single case has it
failed, nor can it ever fail. as the nature of the
remfdy is such that it strikes at the ROOT of the
complaint, and eiadicates i. completely in very
few DAYS. New cases cured in an incredibly short
space Of time, without change of diet or hindrance
from business.
