Letter from the Federal Capital.
WASHINGTON, July -, 1865.

w ALUMINIUM, July Ii, lCUU.
To the Editor OF the Press: sa ega . 1 81
The readers of your journal need not be as
sured of the profound sorrow with which the
news of the Portland confagration was re-
ceived here. The grief felt in this community
in view of that terrible calamity, griet by no
means confined to citizens of Maine, is likely
soon to find more satisfactory than any mere
" verbal expression. As soon as the disaster
became known, various individuals took meas
ures for the relief of the sufferers on their own
responsibility. Among these may be men
toned Mr.. George A. Bailey, of the Congress
sicnal Globe, whose donation of $1,000 must
have received an added value from its promp-
titude, Hon. E. B. French, the Second Audi
tor, and Mr.. Llewellyn Deane, of the Patent
Office. A public meeting was called by the
Mayor of Washington, and was held on Tues
Gay evening in the City Hall. A considerable
number were present, and after addresses from
HON. 1ohn A. a. Poor, and Hon. Sidney Perham,
committee was raised to organize measures
of relief. At ameetingo of this committee held
last evening, at which Senators Fessendan and
Howe, Representatives Perham and Rice. Hon.
Hugh McCulloch, Hon. Messrs. E. B. French
Horatio King and John A. Poor, Maj Gen.
Howard, and other prominent gentlemen were
present, steps were taken to present the nee
essities OF the Portland sufferers to the people
OF Washington, and a worthy response is ex-
pected Hon. Sidney Perham, Gen. Howard,
MIR. G. A. Pitcher, formerly of Belfast, Me-,
and Secretary McCulloch have each subscribed
one hundred dollars. may be permitted to
add, that While the misfortunes and sufferings

spirit in which they have met this appalling
calamity commands an admiration no less r!ils
versal. True to its ancient legend, the city
will rise again"
The close of the Orphans Fair on Tuesday
evening was scene of no small interest. The
voting tor the sword, Senatorial cane, and sew
eral other articles, was conducted by sealed
envelopes during the last hour. When it was
announced that Gen. Howard had received
1868 votes for the sword, a majority of 1853
over Gen. Thomas, the next highest candidate
for this honor, the result was greeted with
hearty cheers. Senator Doolittle got the cane,
the policy" men Of this city being determined
to give it to him. The aggregate vote was
about 740O, at fifty cents each, Of which Sena-
tor d. received over five thousand five hum
dred. Ii he runs as well among the people of
Wisconsin, he may deem himself fortunate.
Senator Fessenden was voted silver pitcher,
graceful acknowledgment on the part of the
ladies employed in the Treasury of his efforts
to procure for them an increase of pay.
Political affairs here are in rather confused
and unsettled state. A squat has arisen lit
tie to the westward of the Capitol considera-
bly, larger than mans hand. Postmaster
General Dennison having recently returned
from the West with strong impression on his
mind that there neither is nor can be more
than one Union party in the country; that
the johnson movement is an utter failure, i'm
potent to do more than lead over few mer-
cenaries to the rebels and copperheads; that
it is best no true Union man should longer al
low himself to be placed in any eeuivocal po-
sition-has withdrawn from the Cabinet, or
least rendered his resignation. Montgomery
Blair and Assistant Postmaster General Ran
dali are spoken of as likely TO succeed to the
vacated office. Other changes are considered
imminent, Harlan and Speed being expected
to retire shortly. Doubts are entertained
about the course of Secretary Stanton.
There can be no doubt as to the meaning of
a reconstruction Of the Cabinet 1t is simply
an official declaration of what Randall is said
to have affirmed the other day, "this matter
has got to be fought out between Congress and
the President; and again there is to be gen
eral removal of all postmasters who do not ia
vor the Presidents policy"
In this state of affairs, it is very uncertain
when Congress will adjourn. The caucus last
evening thought fit to take no definite action
upon that subject. 1t is said to have been
very. harmonious, the Union men standing
cordially and firmly together. The postpone
ment in the Senate of the Tariff bill till De-
cember next, by the decisive vote of % to II,
indicates the fate of other important meas
ures. The Bankrupt bill will hardly be con-
sidered, much less passed. It's. p

ARCHBISHOP wHATELY.

A new biography of Archbishop Whately,
EDITED by his daughter has appeared in London
from LoDgman's press. 1t consists chiefly of
the Archbishop's letters which are carefully
arranged in chronological order. pleasant
sketch of his early life shows that he was a
very nervous and shy child, naturally more
cared for by his sisters than by his brothers.
He learned very early to read and write read
eagerly, watched spiders, tanned ducklings.
could distinguish notes of birds, and had so
strong natural turn for arithmetic that at six
years old he astonished a man past sixty by
telling him, and rightly too, how many minutes
old ne was.
" The calculation was made mentally For
about the three years between the years of five
or six and eight or nine this passion lasted
The child was calculating morning, noon, and
night. Absorbed IN multiplication, division,
and the rule of three he ran against people in
the streets. But none of the calculation was
worked upon paper. The passion died out and
at school vanished so utterly that Whately was
he says of himself, "a perfect dance at cipher
ing, and so continued ever since" "But," saws
his daughter, 'he always looked upon himself
as Ounce in that line, though the readiness
with which he solved curious problems and
aIithmetical puzzles would often surprise and
battle the irst.class mathematicians. The clear
ness ofhis explanation of the processes of arith-
metic was always remarkable; but he was never
distinguished as mathematician at college,
The following are among the anecdotes told by
Miss Whately;-
