The I'ntnre Capital of the Ame
rican I niou.
From the 7,onrtn Pall Mall Oairtts.
Yt w moro memorable events have occurred in
the history of the world than tlio transfer, byUon
stantine, of the dignity of capital city of tlio civil
ized world from Home to Byzantium. Historians
have expatiated with more than usual of roman
tic description on tho unrivalled site and other
advantages of the new metropolis, and on the
circumstances of the empire which rendered the
change advisable, If not indispensable. New
Koiuu succeeded old Rome amidst tlio applause
of a whole generation, except tho citizens of the
deserted city themselves, and the wealth of the
world was lavished ."i order to render It a Uttluif
centre from whence .'he world Bhould bo gov
erned, lint no abiding treaty can bo made, says
Schiller, with the powers of destiny. The
transfer of dominion was tho signal of its over
throw. Only forty -seven years utter Constantino
had founded his scat of government tlio over
grown realm burst asunder, and Constantino's
descendants, in tho words of Gibbon, executed
nt Nuissus "the solemn and final division of the
Roman empire."
llistorv lias to record, in later times, one
more change of the capital of a first-rate
State; It Is that performed by Peter the Groat
when he removed the residence of the Czar, a
hundred and lifty years ago, from Moscow to St.
Petersburg. Aud tho change was a success
ful on; uw has nny evil omen respecting it as
yet had Its accomplishment. Nevertheless, there
are fcigns abroad which seem to indicate that the
great achievement of tho great man will one day
Lie reversed, and tho Government retransferred
to Its ancient seat at Moscow. Tho site of St.
Petersburg is open to many serious objec
tions; these were counterbalanced, at the time of
its foundation and for a century afterwards, by
the inestimable advantage of direct maritime
communication with tho rest of tho world; but
since the spread of railway communication that
advantage has lost great part of its importance,
and the oueient inland city, seated amidst Its
i'cnile plains, peopled by the flower of the Mus
cevite nation, has attractions which the situation
of the city of marsh and ice no louger counter
balances. These considerations arc suggested, naturally
enough, by the speculations of which the Ameri
can newspapers are now full respecting the
probable removal of tho seat of the Federal
. Government from Washington. There are many
difficulties in the way of the scheme; but our
cousins have a wonderful aptitude for carrying
into effect by a sudden and simultaneous effort
what they have Bet their hearts upon. The
legendary citizen of Chicago, who went to sleep
in a prairie and woke up witli a hotel over his
bead, may be a typo of the great Republic her
self, established almost without a warning in
some new and flourishing locution. It Is, how
ever, far more likely that the event will bo for
Borne time retarded, not so much by practical
impediments as by the rival claims of other
places eager to appropriate so enormous a
windfall.
Washington itself now threatened with aban
donment was, as we all know, invested at
second hand, In defiance of superstition, with
something of tho classical prestige attaching to
the Eternal City. It was said that a small col
lection of houses on the site had been casually
called Eome. Names of other localities were
adapted on purpose. The Capitol arose
"Where tribunes rule, where dusky Ravi bow.
And what was Goose creek once la Tiber now,"
as Tom Moore sang in his anti-Republican days.
That the choice of its site was a mistake is now
pretty generally alleged. But it is after all
rather rash to affirm this of an expedient which
has now Berved its purpose for seventy years, in
a country subject to so much change as the
United States. It was certainly well placed as a
sort of city of compromise between North and
South, uutil the great West came in to alter
definitely the balance of power. Its advantages
as a ee'at of trade- turned out inferior to
what was expected; but its founders did not in
tend it for a city of commerce. Its neighbor
hood is no doubt melancholy now, since tho old
planting interest, the only shadow of European
aristocracy which existed in the country, has
Been its long decay completed by recent events,
and Arlington House, once tlio residence of
Washington himself, overlooking the city from
its grand 6ite across the Potomac, has been
turned into the centre of an enormous eemctery
of the soldier-victims of the civil war.
But there is great natural beauty
in the endless forest glades around
Washington, and in tho long ravine which the
noisy Potomac has cleft for itself through trans
verse ridges of rock, even down to the suburbs
of the place. It is, no doubt, very ill laid out;
its choice sites were granted out to speculators
in building, regardless of convenience and uni
formity: and its exaggerated scale interferes
Badly with capabilities for paving, lighting, aud
draining. As to tho complaint so commonly
urged of its unhealthiness, we ore inclined to
believe them very much exaggerated. Ameri
cans take them very much on trust from mem
bers of Congress, and of the huge "tail" which
accompanies them people who go there un
willingly, and join the fashionable cry against
the "overgrown village" which they visit on
compulsion. Europeans very seldom do
more than pass through it, unless attached
to the diplomatic corps, habitually and in all
parts of the world tho most accomplished grum
blers among mankind. Lord Palmcrston used
to say that until he became Foreign Minister,
and had to read the correspondence of her Ma
jesty's Ministers and Consuls abroad, he had not
lormed the least conception 01 two inmgs tue
variety of disease to which the human frame is
liable, and the expense of living in any part of
tho world. At all events regarding the matter
from a sanitary point of view only it is dillicult
for a foreigner to understand why Washington
should be one of the most ineligible residences
; in the States, while Baltimore, only two hours
distant, and placed under very similar ciroum
Btanccs of site and climate, should pass for one
of the most eligible.
All these, however, aro minor considerations:
the verdict must go agalust Washington on tiio
main issue. Its sitaution is not central enough
even for preseut circumstances, still less for tho
probable future circumstances of the great re
public. Its abandonment ana ine selection 01 a
substitute form only a question of time. And
the first problem which has to bo settled is
whether one maxim of tho traditional wisdom
of the founders and fosterers of American lib
' crty is now to bo set aside. They wero strongly
governed by the consideration that the scat ot a
government, still more that of a legislature,
should be removed from the corrupting and in
timidating influence of great cities. J. his was
notoriously one of the reasons for the selection
of Washington. The same argument (together
with that from ceutrallty of site) prevailed in
the case of many State capitals: tho small rustic
city (in those da'J-s) of Albany superseded New
York as metropolis of the State, Harrlsburg was
preierrea to rmiadcipiiia oy reunsyivania,
Columbus to Cincinnati b v Ohio. One of the latest
instances of this kind of selection took place in
our own dominion of Canada, when, on tho
Union ff OlA twr nrnvlnppa thn fcoattnrad h.-irdr.
woods village of Ottawa was taken for the capi
tal, in defiance of the competition of halt a
dozen commercial towns. At present a klud of
reaction iu favor of the choice of large cities
seem to be taking place in the political mind.
It is thought thut the atmosphere of little scats
of government, which are nothing else, becomes
'vitiated. American newspapers represent that
one of the great advantages of moving from
Washington to a place of more varied Interests
will be the getting rid of the "lobbying" by
which the Capitol is pestered. It is curious to
observe, here as In other nations, how history
eproduccs Itself. There can bo no doubt that
no ot Constantino great reasons for
loving Byzantium was to escape fro.n
he vicinity of tlio old senatorial fauii
ies of home, their cstabllshud iniliie.neo.
!helr lobs, their slow traditions, their addiction
to whatever classical substance answered to the
character of red tape. And Poter tho Great, in
going to 51. Petersimrg, wus very certainly lnllu
cneed, among other motives, by delro to shuko
himself lice from the obstructive clique of tho
liovnrs of Moscow. But 1 It really so easy t
get rid of "lobbying" by change ot o'l.ice ? J'ont
(jitHi'in urdi't, we suspect. Loudon Is a city pos-cst-ing
more varied iutcrcts iliun any other in
jhe world; but is "lobbyl.ig" therefore any the
less powerful at Wesliulu-ter ? Would private
bills be passed at all less under Hie Influence of
private interests than they are now if Parliament
were to move to Oxford ?' We doubt It greatly;
and fully expect thut the future Washington,
whether city or village, will in this respect
closely resemble its predecessor.
Assuming, however, that an existing city Is
fixed on. which will it be? At present, popular
opiuh.n Fccms to hcbitato between Chicago and
St. Louis. Chicago Is. to our mind, too far
north; It 1ms, on that side, only the expanse "of
Lake Michigan between Itscif and the frozen
forests which extend to Hudson's Bay, and
which are, moreover (though this may be of
Miiall account to a sanguine citkcnl, at present
under British dominion. St. Louis, to speak from
the map. possesses a far more imposing site, in
the very licurt of the vnt fertile prairies, and
commanding the Mississippi and its branches
that is, the liquid roads to the Rocky
Mountains westward, to New Orleans
pouthwiird, and to the heart of manufacturing
Peniisyvaiiia eastward. And already we see iu
sundry journals such disparaging criticisms on
the climate, water, air, and soil of St. Louis, as
lead us to suppose that her claims are regarded
by other places as very formidable. New York,
we are told, expects to come in first by reason of
tho rivalry of other competitors. But we can
hardly fancy tho popular judgment acquiescing
iu a choice which inevitably have to be made
over in a few years if tho West continues to
progress at its present rate. San Francisco,
meanwhile, bides her time. The Queen of the
Pacific may yet arrive nt tlio dignity of presiding
mistress of the I nion also: that is, if the Union
holds together long euough. May the change,
whenever fixed on. be less omiuou- than that
made by Constantino!
The Itobulliik.
BY THOMAS M. IIKKWHlt.
Always excepting the Mocking Bird, whose
wonderful powers place it so far above and
beyond comparison, our most popular aud wel
come musician is the Bobolink. Original,
natural, and never imitative, its song is in the
highest degree exquisitely musical. Iu the '
variety of its notes, the rapidity with which they
nre uttered, and tlio touching pathos, beauty,
aud melody of their tone and expression, they
are unequalled by those of nny other bird to
which our cars have listened. Wo
certainly have nothing among the
varied songs of our feathered musicians
of America that resembles or even approaches it.
In tho earliest approach of spring, in Louis,
iaua, when small Hocks of male bobolinks make
their first appearance, they aro said, by Mr.
Audubon, to sing iu concert, and their song thus
given is at once exceedingly novel, Interesting,
and striking. Uttered with a volubility that
almost borders upon the burlesque and tbc
ludicrous, the whole effect is greatly heightened
by the singular and striking manner in which,
lirttone singer, and then auollicr, one following
the other until all have joined their voices, take
up the note and strike in, after the leader has set
the first example and given the signal. In this
manner sometimes a party of thirty or forty
bobolinks will begin, one after the other, until
the whole party unite in producing an extra
ordinary medley, to which no pen can do jus
tice, but which Is described as very pleasant to
listen to. Suddenly the music ceases with a
suddenness not less striking and extraordinary.
These concerts are repeated from time to time,
usually as often ns the llock alight.
By Hie tnno these birds have reached. In their
spring migrations, tho fortieth parallel of lati
tude, they no longer move in largo docks, but
have begun to separate into small parties, and
tonally into pairs Here In New England tho
bobolink treats us to no such concerts as those
described by Audubon, where many voices join
in creating their peculiar jingling melody. When
they first appear here, usually al ter the middle of
May, they are in small parties, composed of
either sex, absorbed iu their courtships, and of
course overflowing with song. When two or
three male bobolinks, decked out in their gayest
spring apparel, are paying their attentions to
the same urao-coioreu uemoiseuo, tne contrast
of whoso sober brown apparel is so striking,
their performances are quite entertaining. Each
seems to endeavor to outsing the other. 1 he
females, on tho contrary, appear coy and retiring,
keeping closely to the ground," but always
followed or attended by the several aspi
rants tor their
altectiou. Alter a con
test often quite exciting, these rivalries
arc adjusted, the rejected suitors arc driven
oft by their more fortunate competitor, and the
happy pair take possession of their new home.
In these lovo quarrels their song appears to the
greatest advantage. They pour out incessantly
their strains of quaint but entrancing music,
now on the ground, now on the wiug, now on
the top of a fence, a low bush, or the swaying
stalk of a plant that bends with their weight.
The great length of their song, the immense
number of short and variable notes of which it
is composed, the volubility and confused rapidity
with which they are poured forth no humau
ear being able to separate one note from the
other tho quaint and eccentric breaks, in the
midst of which we detect the words "bob-o-llnk"
so distinctly enunciated, unite to form a general
result to which we can find no parallel iu any of
the musical performances of our other song
birds. It is at once a unique and a charming
production. Nuttall speaks of tholr song as
"monotonous," which we consider neither true
nor consistent with his own description of it.
To us they are ever wonderfully full of variety,
pathos, and beauty.
When their love contests aro ended, and the
happy pair take possession of their allotted
meadow and prepare to construct their nest aud
rear their lamiiy, then we see tne male uira
hovering in tho air over the spot where his
homely wile is brooding over her charge, and
all the while warming toriu his lucessaui ana
happy love-song, or else swinging on some sleu-
dtr stalk or weed that beuds under him, and
ever overflowing with song aud eloquent with
melody. As his domestic cares and parental
responsibilities increase, his song grows less and
Ices frequent, then degenerates Into a few short
notes, and at last altogether ceases. His five
children in due time assume tho development
or mature biros, anu an wear tho sober garb ot
their mother. Ana now there conies a mar
vellous change over our once gaily-attired mu
sician. His bcautilul dress ot glossy white and
black, bo striking in Its contrast, changes with
an almost magical rapidity into homely brown
nru firao, until he is m no wise distinguishable.
cither in dress or in note, from wife or children.
In the North, where the bobolink breeds, he
never molests the crops, but confines his food
almost entirely to insects or to the seeds of
valueless weeds, in the consumption of which
he confers a benefit rather than harm. At the

ai'd ot preying upon the rice plantations on his
return, they appear, in inmost innumerable
Hocks, lu the middle of August, among tho
marches of Pennsylvania, where they aro
known as reed birds. Two weeks later they
begin to Bwarm among tho rice plantations of
Soiiih Carolina, where they nre generally know
as tho rice birds. In October they again pass
on southward, making another halt In the
est Indies. There they feed upon tho seeds
of tho Guinea gruJAipon which they grow ex
tensively fat, and aro known in Jamaica as
the butter bird. Everywhere they are sought
out by frportsmcu and shot lu Immense num
bers for the table of the epicure. More recently

As a companion to the spread of female

that Jugganath Is this year loft like a broken

have struck against the sacred monkeys. It is
rudely observed that this modern desire of the
natives to deport monkeys lrom their towus and
villages is rather a severe commentary ou the
anxiety of Europeans to claim origin"from the
monkey tribe. As there is more room for them
here, pcrhnps the monkeys may come back to
the homes of their ancestors.
