city was to be. Coteraporary accounts repre
sent it as desolate in the extreme, with its
long unopened.avenues and streets, its deep
morasses, and its vast area covered with trees
instead of houses. It is enough to say, that
Washington projected the whole plan upon a
scale of centuries, and that time enough re
mains to fill the measure of his great concep
tion.
The Senate continued to occupy the North
wing, and the House of Representatives tbe
South wing of the Capitol, until the 24th of
August, 1814, when the British army entered
the city and burned the public buildiugs.—
This occurred during the recess, aud the Pres
idem immediately convened the Congress.
Both Houses met in a brick building known ns
Blodget’s Hotel, which occupied a part of the
square now covered by the General Post Office.
But the accommodations in that house being
quite insufficient! a number of public spirited
citizens erected a more commodious building
on Capitol Hill, and tendered it to Congress;
the offer was accepted and both Houses con
tinued to occupy it until the wings of the new
Capitol were completed. This building yet
stands on the street opposite to tbe North
eastern corner of tbe Capitol square, and has
since been occasionally occupied by persons
employed in different branches of the public
service.
Ou the Cth of December, 1819. the Senate
assembled for the first time in this chamber,
which has been the theatre of their delibera
tions lor more than thirty-nine years.
Aud now the strifes and uncertainties of the
past are finished, we see around us on every
aide tbe proofs of stability aud improvement;

are we to the secure enjoyment of a freedom
elsewhere unknown, that we are apt to under

great results were not achieved without wis

heroic record is before the world ; but to all

has been cast a great inheritance, have only

It would be a pleasing task to pursue many
trains of thought, not wholly foreign to this
occasion, but the temptation to enter the wide

pardoned, perhaps, for oue or two additional
reflections.

Uses of Camels,” by a correspondent who signs
himself “Jatros.” The purpose of the article is
to induce inquiry as to the usefulness of the
camel in the production of com and cotton, and
on our plantations generally. I laving.been oc
cupied now ten years with the experiment of
introducing the camel into this countiy, permit
me to offer, through your columns, briefly to
‘Jatros,’ and other inquirers, a few of the results
of reading, observation and thought upon these
points. To do so concisely, and at the same
time sufficiently, I will follow them in their or
der, as presented by your correspondent
The climative range of the camel, within
which he has been known, indisputably, to live,
thrive and be useful, may be stated at from 50
deg. Svuth to 52 deg. North latitude. The mean
temperature of this xone may lie rated at from 50
deg. to f>8 deg. Fahrenfieit. As animals, we
know, arc diffused over tlie globe, first, accor
ding to zones of climate, and second, according
to degrees of longitude; and as we know, that
“camel land,’ and the United States arc inclu
ded in the same zones of climate; and as, fur
ther, the secondary order of arrangement by
[longitude] is hut of trivial importance, your
correspondent is right in Ills supposition “that
the camels would flourish in any latitude within
the United States.”
The cost of a camel, a good serviceable one,
landed at Mobile or Pensacola, may be put down
at from ^150 to $200—not more, I think, if tlie
purchase and transportation are judiciously
managed. The greatest expense in general will
be in the freight In any project, therefore,
for the introduction of the animal, this must'be
the main item for close calculation. So far as
the voyage is concerned, there need be no ap
prehension, for I know of no animal so little
troublesome and so comfortable at sea as the
camel. I speak from a tolerably large experi
ence in the transportation of horses and mules
during our war with Mexico. So far as the
motion of the vessel goes, whether in calm or in
gale, one hundred camels would not cause as
much anxiety or give as much trouble as ten
horses.
The camel docs not consume more food than
a horse or mule; prefers a coarser diet; satis
fies itself readily with cither scanty grazing or
browsing; requires feeding but once a day, be
ing a ruminant; and would be with difficulty
distressed for water. It requires no close sta
ble; only a slied protecting it from cold north
erly winds and from falling weather; and re
quires no grooming, though certainly healthier
and better, like all other animals, for a elcan
skin. The camel is undoubtedly a hardier and
tougher animal than the horse; not surpassed,
if equalled in these respects, by the mule; and
with half the forage of either, and with two or
three hours of grazing or browsing, can be kept
in condition. In addition to the economy of
forage, the use of camels saves the outlay for
wagons and carts, harness, shoes and the nec
essary repairs of them. The pack-saddlo being
so .simple in its construction as to lie readily
made on the plantations, its cost will be but
trifling. Its weight, moreover, compared with
that of a wagon or cart, increases the physical
energy devoted to the transportation of goods.
For short distances, say about a plantation, or
for six or eight miles on the road, a strong cam
el will cany on an average from eight hundred
to one thousand pounds. The Tiulus of Asia
Minor, the produce of the double-humped Bac-
trian male on the single-humped Arabian fe
male, will average, for the same distances, from
one thousand to fifteen hundred pounds. All
of tlie statements in my official report of what
was done by the camels under my direction in
Texas arc made from accurate weights and
closely computed distances.
So far, the general advantages from using
camels mav he summed up as follows:

Misplaced Kindness.
Our-A'oung fi ientl Sam D has a heart
keenly alive to the afflictions of humanity, and
is ever giving vent to its generous promptings
by administering to the comforts of his suffering
friends.
Poor II was brought into the town
where Sara lived, in a rapid decline consequent
upon tubercular consumption, from which he
had been suffering hopelessly for many years,
lie was carried to the hotel,' where his numer
ous friends waited on him, and set up with him
at night, rendering those kindly offices which
men delight to give to those who need them.
Satp was invited to perform hi* part in sitting
up, Ac., and appointed the approaching night
for his ministrations. It happened that H \s
physician thought it advisable that evening, to
liave him removed to a private house, away from
the hustle and noise of the hotel—which was
accordingly done, but without Sam’s knowledge.
At the hour designated, he appeared at the
room once occupied by his sick friend In the
meantime, a drunken man, named Jones, had
stumbled into the room, and gone to bed in the
same one Sam had seen poor II Noise
lessly he walked about the room, fearing to dis
turb tlie sound slumbers of the supposed in
valid, watching every motion, with scrupulous
vigilance. About midnight the sleeper turned
about, and groaned; Sam ventured to ask,
“H , how do you feel this time V” When
nothing reached his ear but a confused inter
mixture of a grunt, groan and growl. Satis
fied that all was right, Sam sat down, to await
any change that might take placo during the
night.
About sunrise next morning, a servant came
in to get Jones’ boots, and seeing Sam setting
up there, said “Mas Sam, what’syer doindarV”
Sitting up with II , Jim.” “Lor! Mas Sani he
done been moved to Mas Ben’s house, yistiddy

Mil Jonx Buight, M. I*.—The London cor
respondent of the New York Times, says of this
leader among the English radicals:
The angularity of the man, and total want of
tact, are drawbacks indeed which would always
prevent him from being the head of a numerous
party. His fearlessness of opposition, sincerity
ol purpose, intense confidence in Ms own powers
of intellectual vision, and perhaps, above all, his
keen relish for a fight—all contribute to make
him one of the most controversial of thinkers
and talkers. Mr. Cobden used to say of him,
long years ago, that “if lie had not been bred a
Quaker he would infallibly have been a prize
fighter.” I heard the other day an anecdote of
him, illustrative of his mode of dealing with dis
tinguished strangers whom he met in his recent
travels abroad, which serves to show that time
and sickness have not quenched in him the old
habits or pugnacity.and hrusquerie. When at
Turin, he was invited to meet Count Cavour at
dinner, at the British Embassy; and the first
thing he said when seated opposite to him at
table, was, “How could a clever man like you
have been made such a fool of by Louis Napo
leon and l’almerston, as to go to war with Rus
sia »” The amazement of the company at this
uncivilized sally, may well be imagined Mr.
Cavour, who declines conversation in English,
