The CapitOI SURROUNDINGS,

The item in the civil service bill apprOpri-
ating 100000 for improving the Capitol
grounds ELECTED pretty sharp debate in the
Senate. Mr.. Beck said that $4,000 had been
appropriated for repairs on the Capitol and
100000 for repairs of the Interior Department,
and large sums for the new State, War and
Navy Departments, the building for the Bu-
reau of Engraving and Printing, Sc; and
now, in the bankrupt condition of the Treas
ury, it was not time to spend this 100000 in
making approaches to the west end of the
Capitol.
Mr.. Morrill, thought it was passing strange
that when Senators will make liberal apprO-
priatiOns for completing public buildings
everywhere else, they begrudge every little
picayune amendment here and compel the
compile ion of these grounds to be prOcrasti-
mated year after year.
MIR. Voorhees, opposed the appropriation.
He was astOunded at the lavish appropriations
that were passing through Congress; and
moreover, the money applied to the Capitol
grounds had been wasted. The approaches to
the Capitol twenty years ago were pleasant
and beautiful. Now they were ragged and
unsightly.
Mr.. Window thought it took good deal of
courage to declare that these grounds were
not improved. He remembered the old Scraggy
cottonwood trees that existed here when he
first came to Washington. He remembered
how carriages used to stick in the mud when
they drove around the building. He remem-
bered once distinctly riding in stage within
block of the Patent Office and having to get
out while the driver Pritd the wheels out of
the mud with rails. He remembered the Old
fence that stood around these grounds. He
remembered their dilapdated condition and
looking at them now he would have TO be very
courageous to say that there was no improve
ment.
The Senate seemed to agree with Messrs
MCrTil and Window AZ the amendment of MIR.
Beck proposing to strike out the appropria-
ton, was defeated by vote of . to g.

The resolution of the Vermont Democratic

The Press Upon the District LegisIa.

nave
seen, Is quite unanimous in expressing Sitis-
faction at the legislation of Congress this ses-
sion upon District affairs. The following, from
the New YORK Graphic, gives in pretty com
pact form the tenor of the press utterances on
Il @ matter:
The District Of Columbia has ALWAYS Jared
tadly in matters of taxation. Congress ignored
the District, unless when it was proposed to
levy or legaiiZe the levying of enOrmus taxes.
Now, by The permanent ACT Congress has sol
emmy pledged the faith of the nation to paw
ha1 OF the expenses of the District Gov.
eminent, and also One-half of the cost of all
puDnc Improvements. TO those who under
stand the position of affairs at the capital this
Will seem no more than fair. The government
eXpends the money through its own commits
SlOnerS, II always has II in its power to reduce
expenses and refuse to carry on improvements:
besides, 1t owns large tracts of land and costly
edlhces, and, in one word, makes more use OF
the city OF Washington than all the other occu
pants put together. Why, then, as long as the
city Is means of government, should not the
Whole people pay proper portion of the eX,
penses? The city Of Washington will have good
reason lOr holding in grateful Temem Drance the
Forty nth CODgreSs-the first Congress that
ever tried TO study their interests or minister
to their wants. The National Capital will now
enter upon new era. Washington is destined
to become great seat of the higher learning
OF art and OF science. There, as the nation
grows Uder,will be sure TO be founded great
National university, as was proposed by Pres
idenI Hayes. The great Congressional Library
which, when properly housed, should be called
the National Library, will afford unrivalled
facilities for the prosecution of historical re-
searches, and will attract students of our inSUi-
tutiCns iron all parts of the world. Already
We have in the Smithsonian Institution the
nucleus of great National Scientific Museum
which IS sure to grow. Washington will be-
come an art center and literary center.
Washington is now a beautiful city. The per-
manent act assures the country that il will
continue to improve and that il will be made a
worthy home of the National Government of
the represent aives of foreign nations and of
the p, rSOnS and the interests that are natu-
rally attracted TO the seat of a great govern
ment."

gated by his bondsmen to-day. lie is behind
some $4,000, and the whole affair is shrouded
in mystery. In a letter addressed to the public,
which was found in his safe, he says "By one
hour of neglect have wrecked my own happi-
ness. I have been robbed, whether through
negligence or not am at q loss to say, but such
is the fact. ] cannot meet my bondsmen, can
not meet my friends, with suspicion written in
their faces ] have raised sufficient money to
carry me safely and securely across the ocean"
This letter was written on the night of the

yesterday, postmarked Cincinnati, August 18th,
said that he was making for Canada or England.

TAKE THREE.-Every wise and patriotic far
mer should take three papers at the very least.
lie should take his local paper because OF the
important advertising service it is rendering 10
the particular section in which it is published,
and for which it exists; he should take an agri-
cultural paper that he may know all about the
latest improvements in his business, that he mfy
keep his ideas bright, and that his sons and
daughters, if he has any, may learn to love
country life through an acquaintance with its
literature and he should take one Of the great
political weeklies-something thoroughly cos
mopolitan, and that will give him the freshest
and best from every corner of the earth. The
farmer who has such an outfit cannot be behind
the times.
We don't know who wrote the above, but
whoever he may be stopped short of what we
conceive to be bounden duty Of every head of
family. No family should be without its
church newspaper. The leading political paper
should give place to the church paper, in our
| opinion.
We regret TO state that many families in this
County take no paper at all, not even their
County or Church paper, either Of which could

already organized themselves into Young Mems
Christian Association. They meet, rs q body,
every Saturday night to hold religious services,
and different divisions hold prayer meetings in

They require every ono who joins, being q

working for the Lord and we are assured that !,
