THE GROWTH OF THE CAPITAL.

'NO w w WV y q ~ ias
The rapid growth of Washington IS
well illustrated by the remarkable in
in the number fpersons and firms
engaged in the real estate business as
agents or brokers.
In 1871, when change of Govern.
ment took place in the District and the
comprehensive plan of improvement
was inauguratcd, under the energetic
push Of Ex-Governor shepherd, there
were only some fifteen to twenty firms
devoted to real estate business, while
today there are upwards of one hun
dred and sixty live, active, energetic
establishments engaged in that prosper.
Gus line of business.
Through their acquaintanccs and
business relations they WELD a power
full influence in promoting the general
prosperity and advancement of the
material interests of the national seat
Of Government
They are always on the alert to eX-
hibit to visitors and investors the nu.
merous grand attractions of the Capital
City, and point out with intelligent dis.
course the many growing improvements
of public and private character and
The onward destiny which must incvi.
tably follow with the grand develop.
mcnt of the Republic.
The increase in population and
wealth of the United States insures the
advancement of prosperity at its capi-
tai. AS the Nation prospers so must its
seat of Government. The whole
country contributes to the growth of
Washington. Its prospects were never
better or brighter than to-day.

SUNSET.

The golden gates Of day IN quiet close
After the king has passed, and fold on fold
His crimson banners are together rolled
And laid away. The valley Of rcpose
Is hid TO which the stately monarch goes:
lie spreads his couch beyond the mountains

Wrapped In the drapery Of living gold,
And leaves the night 10 us, which darker
grows,
At such time, how beauty as a queen
IlneCrs among the arChe of the west
And nations look enchanted ON the scene
And praise the yesper star upon her breast;

ADARK LOOK AHEAD.

General Benjamin +. Butler, who
was supposed by some people to be
running for the Presidency in the last
campaign, takes n rather gloomy view
of the times generally. lie thinks that
our grandchildren will live to see the
Vanderbilts and Goulds hauled to the
nearest lamp-post and hung. Some
day, in the opinion of the Essex states
man, real red Communist" will lead
the people who are dissatisfied with
the present bad and rapidly growing
worse condition of affairs.
As for monopolies, General Butler is
down on them all, with probably a
mental reservation in favor of the man
ufacture of bunting, in which he is
popuiarly supposed to enjoy an eX-
elusive interest, and the market for
which he will doubtless want to con
troll even when the stars and stripes
give place to the red muslin of the
Commune.
No remedy for present and pros.
necllVe eVllsls proposed, but there was,
according TO General Butler, n remedy
last year, the advantages of which
were not realized by the people 1t is
unnecessary to say that this remedy
was the election of himself to be Presi-
dent, The mistake which the General
thinks he made was in running against
a stone wall. He was foolish enough
TO think that the people had
grown better and wiser and that the
workingmen of the new Republic were
intelligent This age is not different
from any other, and experience has
taught him the same lesson as history.
1t must be admitted that the General
is always interesting in what he says and
often strikingly epigrammatic. We
are sorry to see him become 50 much
of pessimist. The first thing he
knows the artists will all be after him
