From thir Own Correspondent.
lUviiK-nK-ORAcn, Md., Miy22,'1809. It Is in
Ihe recollection of many whose Lends have
whitened with the honr fronts of ago, tho intciine
feeling of Rrccd occasioned hy the near approach
to the flnirtliing stroke of the engineer on that
important liuk of Internal navigation, tho "Suh
.inelianna and Tide Water Canal," connecting
Philadelphia and Baltimore with tho vast hoards
of wealth then lying inert and unproductive In
the forests, tnluc,,ttnd prolific fields of Pennsyl
vania and Southern New York. In regard to
the value of building lots In thin'ancic.nt town,
anterior to tho projection of the canal, the
chief and absorbing pursuits occupying the pe
riodical attention of its sparse population, were
fishing in spring-time and gaming in autumn,
the interval filled up by knitting of the seine,
tho repair of their duck guns, and the remaining
time spent or wasted In aquatic sports, the spin
ning of yarns, and interchange of friendly visits.
Reversing the order of things, in the natural
habits of the black bear, incubating during the
season of tho year when all other occupations
arc aroused to activity and vigorous effort, dur
ing the summer, the unique characteristics of its
inhabitants were exhibited in one peculiar to
seaboard life, the genuine philosophy of rest or
repose.
No cankering cares ploughed their corrugated
line upon their smooth and placid brows. Jolly,
hospitable, and kind, they Wero indifferent,
whether "school was kept" or otherwise. Al
though not Inscribing upon the tablets of time
and the hearts of their nation, an illustrious
reputation and name, their homely domicils
were those of no small degree of comfort, plea
sure, and content.
Every placo, however remote and obscure,
lias its reminiscences of incident, has a history
This town has its legends of the past, its ro
mance. England furnished its Jack Shep
pard und Clifford. The vicinity of this town
was the theatre of the exploits of the daring
yet generous highwaymen, Hare and JIutton.
, During the struggle of this country in 1812
With Great Britain, Ilavrc-de-Gracc challenged
the chivalry of the world in the acts of its
adopted citizen O'Neil, during the disas
trous, and to us disgraceful, incursions of the
execrable incendiary Cockburn on the shores
f tho Chesapeake Bay, add the attack by gun
boats on this town, then a hamlet of a few
houses. This gallant son of Erin, alone, con
fronted and maintained his position in the un
equal combat, loading and firing his musket
until knocked down and disarmed by the dis
embarked red coats, after which they plundered
and burned the few time-stained shanties com
prising the village : then electrified the old
'continents and cities of Europe with the asto
nishing intelligence of the capitulation and cap
ture of "Havre-de-Gracc," and u few days later
the downfall of the fortified town of ''French
town," consisting of a tavern and one or two
habitations of poverty, which had not even
O'Neil to elicit their pugnacity.
an
These glorious feats of tho wooden walls of
the Mistress of the Seas gave occasion to illuini
uatious and rejoicings, on the part of our old
querulous mamma, that she was not yet inca-
' pacitated by age to flog us for being so naughty
as to question her prerogative in the enforce
ment of laws rcirulatinj;.' 'free trade and sailors'
rights." It is manifest, therefore, that this now
quiet and unostentatious city occupies upon the
nace of thrilling incident no mean 'place. It
will be borne in mind, also, that it was pertlna
ciously insisted upon as the most eligible site for
our National Capitol. It has had also its histo
rical panics and pecuniary ebullitions. It came
to pass, as the wheels of time and fortune re
volved, the placidity of its quaint denizens was
destined to be excited and disturbed.
Cupidity, that grout agitating element of our
fallen nature, which has caused in our day a
disregard and severance of the most ancient and
sacred tics, domestic and fraternal, in quest of
the golden placers of California and Australia,
burst with resistless power upon the proprietor
ship of Havrc-de-Grace, causing them to ignore
all propriety and sense of justice in the estima
tion of values upon their building lots, charging
fabulously extravagant prices resulting in the
discouragement of capital Investments for busi
ness or residence. Speculation was rife, many
suffered by the explosion of the evanescent bub
ble or became hopelessly bankrupt in attempting
to carry the weight of its fictitious reputation as
t he prospective centre of trade; it being, instead
the distributing point for the commodities of the
valley of the Susquehanna and its dependencies.
The great mistake of such was in not compre
hending that the relation and nature of all busi
ness Is to seek the great absorbing metropolitan
cities, attracting centripetally the elementary
resources upon which their very existence de
pends. Those days of abnormal disturbance passed
away with its victims. Then the original inhabi
tants, with those from other States casting their
lots with them, engaged in legitimate avoca
tions, and have pursued the even tenor of their
way, despite discouragements, and have 6lowly
but surely advanced, until thrift and modest
prosperity are evinced in all the surroundings of
persons and place. It is becoming almost im
perceptibly a city of note and importance, espc-
' dally as regards the interests of manufacture.
: A nucleus is formed around which i9 clustering
manufactories, assuming proportions that give
promise in the future of operations
of such magnitude as not to be con
jectured by tho most sanguine and ardent.
The shipments have been aud contiuuc heavy.
Its Merchant flouring mill demands the cereals
of the surrounding fertile fields. The saw mills
in and near it, on Swan creek, turn out millioug
of feet of lumber that reach our city via Chesa
nnnkc and Delaware Canal in barges, and by
vessels distributed throughout the districts
irderinor on the noble Chesapeake ray aim
contiguous sounds of the Carolinas, and of that
description of lumber from the white pine re
gions; while it is a notable fact that the enter
prising proprietors f those mills are making
heavy drafts on the yellow pine of Virginia and
the Curolinas to keep their mills amply sup
plied with logs under all contingencies, which

admiration and elicited exclamations of delight

great chain of Intercommunication with the in
terior, accessibility, salubrity of climate; the
riches of its waters contributing to the pleasures
of the table; the attractive beauty of its noble
harbor, all demonstrably true, are sulllciently
fascinating. But should the "project" now en
tertained of uniting the lakes with the Chesa
peake Bay (a splendid conception, and
perfectly practicable) be prosecuted
to n success, by extending the Pennsylvania
Canal from Lock Haven to Cleveland or Eric,
on the lake, what comprehension is equal to the
computation of the value or extent of the trade
that i would seek au outlet at this point, or
measure the glorious results to those identified
with its welfare? This can only be, and should
be, accomplished by tho several corporations
mentioned above acting as a unit and co
operating with each other in promoting this
grand scheme; invoking also the countenance
and aid of the Boards of Trade interested iu
its consummation. In such event, Havre-de-Gracc
would be as rapid in its growth as its
prosperity would be permanent. l. s. c.
WASHINGTON OFFICIALS.

Don I'iatt Maya of Tlicni.
Don Piatt writes to the Cincinnati Commer
cial his opinions of the character and manners of
Washington ollicials. lie speaks in the follow
ing strain:
AT THE STATE DEPARTMENT.
I have a vivid remembrance of a visit to the
State Department when I was younger and
greener than I am now. I remember it was on
a Thursday, and a card was hung upon the door
knob, warning the visitor that none but members
of Congress, foreign ministers, and secretaries
of legation were admitted on Thursdays. I tried
to pass the messenger in tho hall by assuming a
brusque air, but his keen eyes and diguiiled
bearing quite unuerved and belittled me. and lie
turned me outdoors with a manner that charmed
while it maddened inc. I went up the next day
the messenger knew me, and with a sneer bade
me go up stairs. There 1 found a man who
could gain a position in society at any court in
the world merely on his appearance. T felt hu
miliated in hi presence. lie observed me with
great composure, and ho knew in a minute that
I was not a member of Congress nor a Secretary
of Legation, aud he knew, therefore, that I was
of no consequence. He turned me over to
another man, who also put on scollops aud
treated me something like a convict. He looked
me over, and then transferred me to another. I
spent two hours in that department, trying to do
what ought not to have taken ten minutes.
AT THE TREASURY DEPARTMENT.
You are rather better treated here, merely be
cause nobody pays any attention to you. "You
ask the cluster of messengers about the table in
the hall fronting the (Secretary's olliee if the
Secretary is within. They say yes or no, as the
case may be. and continue scribbling on scraps
of paper. They give no further notice to you.
and the stranger is left in ignorance of what is
proper for him to do. If you make further in-
luirv, vou will probably be snapped ott Willi ;i
short word, or receive no answer whatever. If
vou produce a card, and ask to see the
Secretary. one of the messengers will
probably take the card in, but he will do it
ill such it v ay as iu mime vuu wimi lie nau not
done it. You will get along well enough with
Boutwell, if you get to him, but I pity vou if
he has not the information you seek, and you
are rcierreu to some cieru or subordinate.
I'licn Toil will see where the laugh comes In.
You will not only be required to give your
name, residence, and the extent ot your lannly
but you will be asked lor what purpose you de
sire the information, and the business you fol
low. The humiliation you sutler before these
autocrats is something beyond conception. You
approach them with lint in hand, and remain
standing in a respectful attitude until thev arc
ready to talk to you. They will then look up at
you disdainfully, frowning an inquiry as to your
reason lor troubling tnem. len cnances to one
you nave not tne courage, in sucn presence, to
tell your business intelligently, and you are only
too glad to leave them when thev" have given
von unvthintr like an answer. As fortransactiiiL'
business with some ot these voting popinjays, it
is not to be thought of. They have only to cast
their eyes on you, and they can tell the texture
of your cravat, the cost of your coat, the mate
rial of your pantaloons, and the maker of your
hat. The more broadcloth you have on, and tho
larger the diamond iu your shirt-front, the better
M ill be your treatment. The same is true of
every department here.

Trouble In the f'nhliirt ItrrwiiiK Tin.
lii'iM'-eiieriil (Vnniirt-il.
At
The N. Y. JJerald's correspondent at Washington
shvs:
A strong effort is liclng made to have the President
dismiss Attorney-iiencrai iioar irom tne cabinet.
He has rendered himself extremely unpopular with
those who have had business to transact with the
Attorney-General's office, and especially obnoxious
to Senators and members. "1 will bet a champagne
Slipper,' said a Senator the other day, in the pres.
ence of a dozen gentlemen, ''that you cannot find a
single Senator or member, not excluding the
delegation from Massachusetts, who will speak
well of this man Hoar." The company, which
was composed mostly of Congressmen, echoed
"That's so" to this remark, and nobody took
the bet. Hoar is eminently against the politicians,
and he nuts down In t his category all the members o
both houses of Congress. He was so insulting in his
manner towards tho Congressmen that a couple of
members of the Cabinet who happened to hear about
it went to him and advised him to change his policy,
.otherwise ne would make nosts oi enemies ior i
administration. It appears, however, that he has
refused to adopt the advice, alleging that ho did not
take charge ol the Attorney-General s omce to please
the politicians. The Congressmen say all sorts of
hard things about htm as, for instance, that he is
run by ex-Attorne.v-Geiieral Kvarts and they threa
ten tliat If he is not removed before Congress meets
a resolution of censure will be introduced upon him
inid passed, strange as It may appear, the most,
bitter against him are the members from Massa
chusetts. (i OLD WIN SMITH.

lias (ioldwln Smith come to this country as an
emissary from the Itrltlsh Government to be around
our ciuiip tires and weaken our hearts on the eve of
battle' Now, Just when Mr. Sumner has kindled a
lire of righteous Indignation in the minds of the
people, Mr. (ioldwln Smith, leaving his chair of his
tory ut Cornell I'niversity, nroceeds to pour cold
water on the enthusiasm, and endeavors to scare us
out of our revenge. Mr. Smith, before an assembly
of citizens at Ithaca, N. Y., last evening, replied to
Mr Sunnu r s arguments, lie warned the American
people against cherishing the hone of seeming li
lanilor Camilla or one of the llritlsli West India
islands in payment of the Alabama claims, lie
declined I hut Mr. Sumner's speech was bitter and
rancorous, and mum only bringing us to grief in
England ; and he repeated that (Kale old fib abont the
riinndllness of the English Government towards this
country (luring the war. In fact, Mr. smith gave us
a side thrust, which Is very aprsrravatlnu, coming,
from such a quarter. Ills speech, thoujrh apparently
tn a very moderate vein, was unbecoming to a pro
fessor of ono of our colleges, and was perhaps a
violation of the courtesy extended to htm when he
was Invited to a chair In an American university.
Mr. Gold win Smith's speech will, however, have very
llttlo effect, for wo urn now In a condition to wait
Jst as patiently as England may desire for the set
tlement of this business. So long as we can see
Kngland contort and twist, and writhe and struggle
under one speech from a single Senator we can grow
fat on our own sense of Importance, and leave Mr.
Smltli to grow poor on his speeches against war.

From the huchpnrt (.V. I'.) paper, May 18.
On Mondav last. James M. Seaver, Collector of the
town of I lartland, Niagara cinintv, committed sui
cide by shooting himself In the heart. Mr. Seaver
was elected Collector in 1Sfis. and last winter It was
discovered Hint the tax-roll, lliad been tampered with,
and Mr. Seaver was Indicted for forgery. The un
fortunate man mado restitution as far as he was
able to those who suinmsed tliev had been wronged
by him. and In making restitution, a note of hand,
purporting to be endorsed by his father, was used by
him. Later the endorsement was pronounced a for
gery, a circumstance which affected Mr. Seaver very
in in li. Kxpcciing ins trial would luxe piace mis

ing his Innocence to the last, as will be seen by the
following letter written by him:

left, I would give my kind regards from the bottom
of my heart; to those who are persecuting me I for

them and me. v mist tney were at tneir domes per

where mv fellow-men went down bv the hundreds
