and dilapidated at beet, 1t seems now like q

br easfworks that surround It. The North

have gone, the Senate Chamber, Representar
tlves' room, Hobbies, corridors, and even tbs
dome, have marks OF barracks. Soldiers can
guards round the dome, hundred and dft7
teet above the Etreets. The white tents Of the
soldiers are seen on every side, mixed in with
forts, ba11icades, horse ndmu1e corranes, and
rapidly riding OFFICERS and troops.
Jefferson City is made up Of hills and deep
gulehes and TaV1nee. From our boats We az
