The Washington Monument.

hASHlNGTON, Aug. 70.
Lieut.. Ives, the Architect and Engineer in
charge OF the Washington National Monu-
ment, has made an official report TO the Sec
rotary, in which he says that when raised TO
the height of 600 feet, the entire weight of
the shaft and foundation will be 20 900
tons. The weight of the structure in It's
present condition is 40, 900 tons.
Lieutenant Ives has been unable to detect
any appearance of settling or insecurity. By
scient tic calculations he has arrived at the
conclusion that the weight alone of the mon
ument at its full height, would offer resist
ance nearly eight times greater than The over
turning efforts of the heaviest tempest To
which it would probably ever be exposed.
1t was proposed to the Monument Society
many years ago To surround the foot OF the
obellsk with ii base of Pantheon form, and
an engraving was made of the monument as
it would appear il completed in accordance
with the plan. An impression has been ere
atcd in this way throughout the country that
the design has been adopted and cannot be
deviatcd from without tearing down what has
been already built but as il has not been the
Intention OF the Society to accept the plan
referred TO, and as tue error which exists
seems TO have an injurious effect, Lieut. Ives
suggests the expediency Of notifying the pub
lie officials that the obeiisk is the only Dor

been decided upon, aud that the determine
tion OF the design for the base is still open tor

wondered at that banks and bankers have
turned the screws of late. or. that the great
stock markets have felt the Tightening.
Specie cannot be sent out of the country in
such amounts, without affecting banking
operations; and. unless the drain is checked,
i: must be followed by disasters which can
not easily be estimated.
After all, the great reliance of national
prosperity is in the agricultural products.

nous production and limited consumption
confront each other, and consequently this
excess involves absolute waste in part, and
dininisbes prices for what may be sold. This
is one of the inevitable results of free trade

have shaped the public policy so long. They
have aimed to create jealousies and hostility.
between the agricultural and manufacturing
interests, promising the former a market in
Europe for their products The time is at

to buy There never was material fact of
larger consequence to the country, than this
which is now visible to every eye and paIpa-
BILE to every understanding. 1t demonstrates
cencluslvery that harmony of interests can
alone prosper and elevate labor, and that the
farmer, manufacturer, miner and mechanic
are alike interested in a tariff which will en-
courage our own industry and protect US
against foreign competition. If the tariff of
1872, or any other recognising the great
principle upon which il was founded, were

corn which the west could furnish would

capncious and uncertain demaLd abroad.
Every new hand put to work in a mine a
factory, or workshop, is a gain toagriculture
and an accession to the home market, which
the farmer first OF all others, is TO profit by.

FREE NEGROES V0TrSG WITH THE DEMoC-
RAcY IN KENTUcKY.-TheG Georgetown Journal
has been informed by a reliable gentleman
that one of the grounds upon which BRUTus
j. CLAY, Esq, will contest the elaction OF Col
PRAIL, before the State Senate,i is the fact,
that, in Bath county, four men of negro des-
cent not only voted for Col. PRALL but for
the whole Democratic ticket The fact Mr.
CLAY is prepared to prove. What have
southern Democrats to say to this? Not
only the Aboltionists, for which we give the
evidence of the Free South, the Abolition
paper published at Newport, but the free ne
groes voted with the Democracy of Ken

To what low debasement aud degradation has

IN addition to this, we also learn that a
number Of the most respectable men in Bath
county will go before the proper authorities
and swear that they voted for Mr.. CLAY, and
yet their votes have been found upon the
poll-boOks recorded for Col. PRALL
1t is with a view to the exposure of such
viliainy as above indicated that Mr.. CLAY
has been Induced TO contest Col. PKAL1's
seat. He does not entertain the thought that
a Democratic Senate will give him his seat.

that GwIs has responded With great bitter
ness. and the war promises TO go on most
furiously. What is to be the result Of il, we
cannot at this distance conjecture. II Is to
be hoped, however. that the disclosures and
exposures made ON both sides, will satisfy
the people OF California that they have ele-
waited bad, corrupt men 10 Office, and move
them TO depose the whole set. The following

NS- Dir. STURGEON. the London preacher,
has recently received legacy under peculiar
circumstances. A lawyer called on him, and
informed him that a Mrs. W., lately deceased,
had left him considerable amount by will.
The reverend gentleman thought there must
be some mistake, as he knew no such person,
but, on investigation, learned that it was
fact. He went to the residence of the tes-
tatrix, and actually saw the lady in her
coffin; he then recollected her as being a con-
slant annoyance to him, many years ago,
in the Park-street Chapel, where she
had pew directly opposite to him.
She never spoke to him, but was con-
tinually watching him, look wherever he
would, till he was under the necessity of
speaking to some congregational friends TO
persuade her to vacate her pew. From that
time to the present he had lost sight of the
lady. So states Tie London Court Circular.
