FROM OUR WASHINGTON CORRESPONDENT.
Wahhinoton, Oct. 2&, 18G7.
Iear Editor: The President to-day called
General Grant's attention to the petition of
some citizens of Georgia, in which they com
plain of General Tope. It is not the first
time these Georgia gentlemen have complained
ct General Tope. About six years ago,
down the Mississippi, a delegation waited npon
Lim with a speech, wanting to know what
"you nns come down here to trouble wee uns
for; wee nns never went to you uns." The
Secretary of War returned the paper to the
TreBident, saying that he would write to
Pope himself, and see what the trouble is.
think there is a great deal of the Napoleon
bout Grant, particularly as to his desire to
sustain the temporal power of the Pope,
(N. B. If you think this a good joke, don't
lo afraid of putting it in the paper; it may
i new to some of your readers.) Every
tAUOg IB vary no down uore $xkn uow, us yvu
will see ly this letter: ' 'nuttier goak," as Mr,
Ward used to say, poor fellow I
Some little sensation is occasioned here in
the golden circles by the report of the suspen
lion of S. M. Clark, Superintendent of the
Printing Bureau of the Treasury Department.
Several reporters who attended the conspiracy
trial were down here, but left in disgust when
they found he was only going to be suspended
from the performance of his official duties, in
rtead of from a platform. This kind of Capitol
punishment they see every day.
To-day they are putting down the new car
pets on the Senate floor, and for once,
GENTLEMEN HAVB THE FLOOR,
f adverse political opinions, without being
railed to order by the chair. On putting down
the new carpet reference will Ve had to the
fitness of the times in its color; consequently
it will be blue. Any member who treads the
floor the next session will feel blue.
There will be a pickle tub in the office of
the Sergeant-at-Anns, in which
THE ROH IN PICKLE
will be kept. This feature of the next Senate
will be a salt, with intent to kill, within the
meaning of the law. I believe I Bhall see
General Butler about it, however.
The Hall of the House of Representatives is
now cleared of its desks, chairs, and sofas,
preparatory to laying down its new carpet.
Indeed, the gallery is cleared at last, which
the Speaker a year ago threatened daily and
liourly to do, but never did. The House of
Jteps. is going to have the chairs oovered with
rep, as is appropriate, and in view of the new
Representatives expected from your State and
Borne others yet to hold their elections, the
floor will be covered, very appropriately, with
green, to represent the position of those free
States that send slaviuh Representatives.
Th Supreme Court will be thoroughly over
hauled and refitted. This it wants badly
enough. Two or three of the dummies ought
to be taken down off the bench, dusted, var
nished, and sent to auction, and some live
figures put in their place. This I don't sup
pose will be done; they will be merely taken
Aown and whitewashed, and set back again.

All through the entire Capitol, carpenters,
rainters, npholstererfl, and plasterers are
busy. New lights are being put In the Capitol,
which will be an improvement; new coloring
given to many of the acts of the last Congress,
and the plasterers will leave a quantity of
slack on hand for the use of the new members.
The upholsterers will stuff the members with
every subject except
WOOL,
which will not be brought into use except for
the purpose of pulling it over the eyes of the
minority. So everything that art can do Will
be done for the next Congress.
General Butler's Committee on the Assassi
nation was to have met yesterday, but none
of the members have arrived. If there ever
was a sassy nation, it is this.
THE ORPNAKCE COMMITTEB
was also to have had a sitting yesterday, to see
about the cannons changing their breeches for
the approaching winter.
The Impeaching Testimony is in the hands
of the compositors at the Government Printing
Office, and they are Betting on the case. About
one witness is set up in ten days, and is then
locked up and put in the vault. The "Chase"
used in this trial is the same as that used in
the conspiracy case, 24 by 38, made of
wrought iron. The Government printer re
gards the President's case in the "form" as
dead matter, and expeots to distribute it as
soon as they can get the time.
General Grant has so far recovered from his
indisposition as to attend to his duties. lie
has been much indisposed to do that hereto
fore, so the President told me.
Governor Ward, of New Jersey, arrived this
evening. Secretary Seward acknowledged him,
and introducod him to the other foreign visi
tors here, including Mr. Romero, the Mexican
minister.
The White House was well attended to-day
with visitors seeking interviews with the Pre
sident. The President's views of things are
generally of the stereopticon nature double
The Postmaster-General has issued propo
sals for carrying the mails to Sitka. Next
spring he will issue proposals to the different
shipping houses to carry the females there
likewise. Yocr Own Correspondent.
THE MAID IN THE "NECK."
Of a "trucker's" maid I now will sing
Down in the Neck she dwelt,
Iler heart much felt for others' woes,
(Her hat was made of Felt.)
Iler toilet was of simple kind,
And so it came to pass,
She had no mirror she herself
Was a good lookin-g-lass.
She sold the sweetest violets,
And roses white and red,
And every kind of savory herb
That's how she got herb bread !
At early morning in the street
Her cheery voice did reign,
"While other people cried for loss,
She only cn'et for gain.
And though the sale was rather slow,
And folks were very funny,
Yet, being sage, she all the time
Did make a mint ot mcney.
An undertaker lived a-near,
A man of poor degree,
And though he was robust and strong,
A nailing man was he;
And every morning when he heard
The maiden's tender try,
He said, u0h, would I were a bird,
Prom woody ware to fly I"
And still he long delayed to ask
If she with him would wed;
His head was turned by love, and so
He turned it in hie head.
Yet oftentimes a pleasant chat
Did he contrive to gain;
And when at last he owned her sway,
Then first sho owned her swain.
So in the ripening Autumn month
This Bartlett pair were wed;
And then she no more walked the streets
A-crying for her bread.
So her "Sweet William," proved a "pink,"
A "balsam" for all ills;
And, if for more particulars,
You'll have to see "small Hills."
ADVEUTISEMENT.l
-WANTKl A K1KHT-OLABS RULER.
Ainu, three oirlg to feed. Apply to W., etc
Surely this is a very proper want; but does
the adverser epeak in a national sense, or as
an individual f if the former, the whole coun
try would join in with him, and cry," Wanted
A First class Ituler V Who shall satisfy the
want, is the question jut now llng discussed
among the varioun Grant Clubs.
The latter part of the "adver," though, is
rather a stunner. How anybody can want
"three girls to feed" just in the face of ap
proaching winter, and business dull, we cau
BOt imagine. "lt we write Ike oonga of a.
Ill
RHR
nation," said Fuller, "and I care not who 1
makes its laws," would in our day be varied
to read, "Let me write the 'advers' of a peo
ple, and I care not who reads them; they'll
be none the wiser."
