The Original Plan of Washington
From the Washington Star.l

Thrown in careessly among mass OF
maps and plans in the gloomy little base
ment room occupied by the architect of the
Capitol has lain for years the original plan
of Washington drawn by LEnfant in 1900,
from which Andrew Ellicotts plan was made
in 1892. The Ellico,t plan is better known
through its having been very deliberately en-
graved and representing, instead Of the
bowling wilderness that the new Washing
ton then was, a city of unparalleled magni-
hcencc, and circulated to the extent OF thous-
ands of copies. L'Enfant's plan was
never engraved, and is yellow and worn
with age The lines marking the lots have
palcd until they are almost invisible.
In half dozen places it has been torn, and
certain colors of ink on the margin have dis
appeared entirely, The plot itself is elegantly
gotten up, the writing is like copperplate,
and the whole work is as beautiful as
that OF countertelter. From the marginal
notes orc secs that certain Ideas were held in
1900 as TO the national capital which were
never carried into effect.
One was for national church. and The ref
erence to the point, and where the patent
Office now is, says "This church is intended
to be for national purposes, such as public
prayer, thanksgiving, funeral oralons, etc.
1t is not to be assign, d to the use of airy par
ticuhr ct or denomination, but il is to be
equally open TO all. 1t will be Likewise a
proper shelter for such monuments as were
voted by the last Continental Congress for
those heroes who fell in the cause OF liberty,
and for such others as may hereafter be de-
creed by the voice Of grateful nation" An

historic column was to be located on point
Il, which should he one mile from the Fed
eral house or Capitol, and should form the
mt asurc Of distances for the continent OF
America. On point "a naval column was
to be erected TO celebrate the founding of
the American navy and it stands there as
monument of its rise and its achievements.
AT another point on the plot great cas-
cade was to be made out of Tiber Creek,
and this was to be one of the sights of the
city.
An avenue was to run from The Capitol
east to the Potomac branch, 1856 feet wide
and a mile in length. On each side Of this
arcades were to be erected, and these were
to be filed with shops and fancy Stores
going, as 1t was then supposed, through the
main part Of the city. The fifteen squares,
colored yellow, were divided among each of
the fifteen States of the Union, either to i'm
prove or to furnish a sum of money equal to
the voluc of the land to be used for their
improvements. Each square will admit of
statues, obelisks, or any other ornaments,
such as the State may select to perpctuatc
the memory and honor of such individuals as
were conspicuous in giving this country lib
erty and independence, and also noted heroes
of other ages and countries.

"Rose and Queen" aud was afterward
patronized by the rollcking wits who were
associated with the fortunes Of the "Beggars'

successes as a journalist were connected
with short hand reporting, which has stood
him in good stead in later years His report
Of the trial OF Smith OBren brought him to
the attention Of the Cork Historical Society,
but John Mitchells' failure led him to seek
advancement in London, where in ignorance
of his powers he confined himself to short
hand reporting. Not till 1860 was he
employed as an editorial writer, on the
Liverpool Northern Times, He then went
back to London, where by brilliant article
in the Westminster Reoieu he attracted the
attention Of Dim Stuart Mill. He soon
became foreign editor and then cdtor-in-
chief of the Morning Star. He now exerted
himself in behalf of Ireland and enjoyed
the friendship of John Bright, who was part
proprietor of the Star. When Bright be.

the "Waterdale Nelghbors," and his stories

His American career was so successful that
he stayed until 1871, and returned as
parliamentary leader-writer of the Daily
Netos. His keen perceptions, vigorous style
and rara coolLess and sense of humor made
him master of the situation. The
last fifteen years of his life have been emf

novelist was increased by "Our Lady Dis

Now, in the season OF flowers,
Now. when the Summer is bright,
When PhUOus stays long with the hours,
And the earth hardly knows any night,
The time for enjoyment is ours,
The time for delight.
Ere the chill wir ds have scattered the roses,
IRE the petals lie dead on the earth
Ere the season OF sweet blossoms closes
And the cold winter months have their birth
Let us join ere the year its youth loses,
In laughter and mirth.
All. sweet youth can last not forever,
But will fade like dream that Is nanght
Though we fancy that Summer dies never,
And on winter bestow not a thought;
But time Is weariless weaver,
His task is sc on wrought.
Then well spend not our DAYS in sad guesses
AS to what the dim future may bring,
But well cast of each thought that Expresses,
For life Is a fugitive thing;
And happy in loves soft caresses,
Well dream but OF Spring
