WASHINGTON CITY:
'RIDAY October g, 1871.

The great number Of public and private build
ings now being erected in this city makes the
subject Of ventilation a very important one, and
every suggestion of a method of introducing pure
air-so essential to the health Of the commu-
nity-into our dwellings and all houses where
people are congregated for longer or shorter
time, Is worthy Of consideration. 1t is claimed
by writer in the Philadelphia papers that the
problem of thorough and perfect ventilation
has for the first time been satisfactorily solved
in the Philadelphia Hospital. All the wards in
the extensive buildings of that institution are
warmed and ventilated on the same general
Plan, viz: Every ward according to size) has
one or more Independent hot-sir chambers, and
one or more fiues for ventilation of its own, in
dependent of any other ward, open only very
near the floor, and going out at the roof. This
II said to be a vital condition to success. An
opening in a ventilating flue near the ceiling is
represented to be fatal to il, and in the Phila-
delphia almshouse all the ventilating open
ings near the ceilings have been bricked up.
In 1865, when the cholera visited the insane
department of the hospital, il was the most
fatal in those wards where there was a strong
ventilation from near the ceiling and none from
the floor, but on bringing it down the cholera
Immediately disappeared. Not a single case
originated or occurred, unless brought in, in
any ward of the institution where there was
thorough ventilation from the floor or an open
fireplace and chimney. To secure good yentila-
ton in summer, heat is introduced into all
needed parts Of the house twice a week for two
hours each time, and Oftener if required. This
warns the ventilating lues so that they draw
all the time and the wards are kept sweet. 1t
has been found by experience that if fresh air is
desired from window, it is better to raise the
window from the bottom than to lower il from
the top, as the latter seriously embarrasses the
ventilation from the floor. Some persons adyo-
cate ventilation from near the ceiling, or the
lowering of windows to let the heat escape.
This will be very effectual if the openings be
large enough, but the healthful, fresh air will
90 along with it, leaving behind the foul, used
up air near the floor.

As if George Francis Train, Weston, the
fraud, and Daniel Pratt, the great American
traveller, were not peripatetic nuisances enough
for one country, Mr.. l.. L. Reavis, the St Louis
capitol mover, is scattering circulars over our
distracted land, announcing his purpose to lee
ture this winter in every city of the country in
favor of his hobby, and to distribute his PAM
phlet at the same time-both lecture and PAM
phlet 10 be furnished free of charge. The PAM
phlet may be made serviceabIe in various ways-
waste paper is worth cents per pound-but
how utilize the lecture? With becoming mod
esty he only asks that those in favor of the
removal Of the capital furnish him halls to lee
ture in, and that the press will give his card
general publication. Reavis Is welcome to this
advertisement Of his scheme in our columns.
and We would suggest to his faithful allies in
this city, the anti-imprOvement men, who, if
their ideas could be carried out, would do more
for capital removal in a year than such HARM
less lunate as Reavis can do in a lifetime that
they might let him have Union League Hail for
a night or two Their dull meetings as now
managed, have gradually dwindled down from
a dozen or two to an aSsemblage of one and we
believe Reavis would he able to inflse some life
into them, and while he could do no harm
would furnish more amusing entertainment
than any OF their local or imported orators have
done 50 far. Don't go back on Reavis, gentle
men, he Is just as much opposed to improve
ments IN the District of Columbia as any OF YOU.

Our immediate Congressional rep
resentative took occasion recently to
contradict a false newspaper report
that he had expressed a desire to
"charge through the House with a
body ofcavalry shooting and killing F"
and said the statement was simply
ridiculous and preposterOus. He had
never felt from the day of his admis-
sion or given utterance to sentiments
that could warrant such a statement.
He concluded as follows: "Like the

represent, | desire and intend to
obey tho laws of my country, and to
do all in my power for its peace,
prosperity and its glory"

THE GRASSES.

A glance at the Public Park, in
our city, will satisfy any dOubter
that there is no better Grass growing
region than this we inhabit. 1t is
true that the soil does not naturally
hold all the essentials to nutritious
growth; but it is equally true that
everything lacking can be easily
supplied and that with proper tillage
and fertilizing this whole region Of
country may be clothed with the
most luxurious verdure.
May be The time not distant
when it t0iH be. 1t only needs in

and intelligence land this is cOming)

lessen the demand for expensive and
exhaustive labor to compel nature
to yield more readily to our necessi-
ties by changing our bleak cotton
aud corn fields to arabic lands, feed
ing almost spontaneously droves and
herds of innumerable stock.
Our soil is unequalled in suscepti-

any region of the globe. And the

GRANT AND SOUTH CAROLINA
The Tribune reports the interview
between certain South Carolina wor'
thies and Grant last Tuesday, about
sending troops to that State;
The President said that he thought
that there is more disorder now in
South Carolina than in any other
Sod,hern State, but that he will use
all the power delegated to him; and
he limited that he thought that he
had enough to support Gov. Scott,
and assist him in protecting the
peaceable citizens of that STATE
off two regiments will not do it," he
remarked, "ten shalt be sent there,
and kept there, too. if necessary, as
long as this Administration is in
power" He added that if Demo
cratic President is elected in 1872,
one of his first acts will be to with
draw the troops, and Gen. Grant
said that he would advise Republi-
cans to follow the troops out of the
State.

strides of the governmental despotic
power. The elections are all telling
against Congressional uSurpations

system of government adopted at
Washington.

The General explains himself
even to the satisfaction, no doubt, OF
our friends of the Macon Telegraph

tions of Congress, so far from being
"a dead issue" is the only vital is
