We see at other places arrange
ments to celebrate the 4th of July, but
if any are being made in Winchester or
Franklin county, we are unaware.
Still, we would be glad to see the day
observed in a genial and proper manner,
disregarding sectional feelings and all
uniting as one in keepingup the memo
ry of the day when the Declaration of
Independence was signed. Fanatics
North and fanatics South, who never
smelt gunpowder in war, may object,
but true men on both sides, who wore
the blue or gray, will enjoy the occa-
sion. Let US celebrate the day.

DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA.
HANYTarv

The report Of the commissioners Of the Dis
trict Of Columbia herewith transmitted will
inform you fully Of tho condition Of tho affairs
OF the District and the vital importance of
legislation for the reclamation and i'm
provement of the marshes and
for the establishment of the hsrbor
lines along tho Potomac river
'front.' It is represented that in their present
condition these marshes seriously affeot the
health Of the residents Of the adjacent parts Of
the city, and that they greatly mar the general
aspect of the park, in which stands the Wash
ington monument: This improvement would
add to that park and the park south
Of the executive mansion q large ares
Of valuable land and would transform
what is believed to be = dangerous nuis-
auce to an attractive landscape ex tending to the
river 'front.' They recommend the removal Of
the steam railSav Zines from the surfaco Of the
streets Of the city, and tho location Of tho
necessary 0ep.6 IN such places as may be con-
venent for the pabl,c accommodation. They
call attention to the deficiency OF the water
supply, which seriously affects the mate rial
prosperity Ct the city, and the health and com
fort Of its Inhabitants Icommend those sub
lects to your favorable consideration
