Three Minutes on the potomac.

The harbor of Georgetown and WASH
inuton and the channel of the lower Poto-
mac are subjects of investigation, in view
of the rapid revival of the whole Chesa-
peake basin. Let us drift down stream on
chip. The Potomac, under the Aque-
duct bridge and along Georgetown. is
deep, and forms basin with the rocky
island OF Analostan, behind which. IN the
stagnant morass, emigrant vessels used to
lie. From seventeen to thirty-four feet
of water extends below EasbY's point,
and then the Georgetown or Virginia
shore channel falls off to little above seven
feet, and grows narrow and deeper toward
the draw Of the Long bridge, where there
are, perhaps, thirteen feet. For all the
distance to Gesboro point, more than
three miles, the wide flats between this
channel and the capital city are covered
by a broad mile Of pond, from one
foot to five feet deep, a problem
indeed to SO great a populace.
Through this mud, under shore, a
narrow channel of seven or eight feet
creeps up to the city wharves. The Ana
costa. with thirteen or fourteen feet, in a
similar contracted gut, satirises the super
| fetal grandeur with which it joints the POI
| motac, making all the show of amplitude
| that the Nacostino Indians formerly did
when they pressed to the Potomac and

the living faith of the Alexandrians in the
fortunes of their town. which they hold tc

a proper one, except in the matter of rail
wav interference. With such water VIZ
would be thrice happy.

The Washington correspondent of the

A strange turn in the remarkable politi-
cal tide has thrown to the surface a col
ored democratic member Of Congress from
South Carolina. 1t appears that Rainey,
the present republican member from chat
State, brought to Washington colored
man named Lee, whom he had appointed
on the capital police force. When Rainey
was renominated this summer, he sent for
Lee to come to South Carolina and help
him among his colored friends. Lee went
down, looked over the situation, saw the
dissatisfaction existing among his own
people, and decided to ruin against kainey
The democrats took him up and elected
him. 1t will now be in order for Lee &c
get Rainey PLACE on tho capital police

:, TEXT FOR, .YouNG MES.-A better sub
ject for young men to mediate upon was
never written than the following by Swift:
mo man ever made: an i'll figure who I'M
derstood lis own talents, nor d good one
who mistook them" Young men do not
fail in pursuits in life because they lack
ability to sticceed, half as often as from
the neglect to study the real calibre
their minds. A moderate capacity, indusf
triously directed, will accomplish much
more than al wrong application Of tn
most brilliant qualifications. Therefore
study yourselves. Aim to find out the ac-
tual talents you possess, and endeavor to
make the best use of them, and you can
hardly come short of making good figure
in the world, and, what is more, being
one amongst those who live not i'll vain.
Study yourselves. .-->-. /
