MEssu.s.E.orrous: A few days ago I had occasion to pass through WestH7empfieid iltoWnship 'en business; - Being , a', resident and 'voier in said township, I .asked whether I would be at. the election on the coming Friday. My curiosity being aroused, I inquired what superogatory thing was.going to , trarnspire, when I was 'informed that they wanted to elect a school board in the township in favor of erecting new and comfortable school houses, as the present ones are incompat ible to subsorve the hygienic and aesthetic aspirations of the rising generation.— Every man who has ever transmi grated this delectable territory knows this to be a fact. There is a party however, who are op posed to spending the mighty dollar, and are going the rounds trying to induce others to join them in their opposition to improvements in learning or any of its facilities or comforts. Tiles° men I presume would rather see their children raised to eminence above a compost pile, than to be well-adneated and be inspired with heaven-born aspirations and new fledged energies. Gentlemen, when I - contrast West Hempfield township with Manor, I blush to think how far we are behind the age. Thirty years ago, Manor was a region so desolated that whipporwills, passing over it, had to carry knapsacks, and where 'ignorance was bliss for half a century, 'but new ideas began to sprout in the minds of the present populace, and the result is that such men as Jacob F. Frey, Jacob Stoner, Jacob B. Shuman and many others whose names I could men tion, are driving everything to the wall for the benefit and education of the ris ing generation. Look at the change that has been wrought in that township. Compare their lands now with what they were twenty years age. Such men as I have mentioned are the kind of men we want for school Directors in our town : ship; men who not afraid to 'spend - the mighty dollar for the comfort of the children. The school edifices that were erected in Mane/ township are a credit to the school board and enduring monu ments of their liberal sentiments. -With proper school houses, the teach - - ers.can be obtained, and proper habits of cleanliness and order are instilled into the young. Besides, when school houses are properly furnished, and tastefully -laid out, there is a pride in keeping -everything-in proper condition. Look at the school houses in West Hempfield. Doors all shattered,' win dows broken in, walls yielding to their in feriority of .ereetion - ., . _ Mr. Eaditor.l, thought I , lived'- in the age of improvewent, but when r think 'of the dilapida tedsrickety pens that we call school houSes, it makes me feel that I belong to an ancient ,generation. We hope, therefore, that the' present men who pledge themsefves not tb improve will meet - with defeat at the ,ballot box, and that. their names may be . engraved or imprinted in some way on the old rickety school houses that now - disgrace our township, there to remain as a 3varn in'g to all Men of that class - for all time to come, So that rising generations: may t know who Abortion were who opposed the-building of comfortable and tastely, schoolhouses. AGE OF IMMOVEMENT Letter from Washington. WASELINGTON, March 13, 1866 MR. blinTort : March with all its blustering is _upon . us, the clouds of dust that have'swept, through the streets meeting you .a,t every corner, filling eyes, nostrils and mouth have been almost un bearable. With a few exceptions the streets here - are not 'paved not macadam ised. The red soil strewn over with ashes thrown out by, and to Suit the Convenience of the inhabitants, eompose the thoroughfares. The consequences arc, in rainy weather we have mud'Makle deep, and when Government wagons were plenty I have 'seen the mud reach to the hub of the whcel,again by the dry ing March winds the clouds of dust that rise, blind the eyes and hinder locomo tion. Dust, as every one knows is an indispensable concomitant of travel. It is at once easily appreciated from the fact that. it can be felt'and easily seen— from the fact that it gets into our eyes. It rejects the advice of Polonius, "Be ever familiar, but by no means vulgar ;" for it is irresistibly familiar and uncom monly vulgar—it rushes into your hair, stuffs up your ears, looks into your eyes, strays up one's nose, enters your mouth goes down your neck, chokes up your throat, dirties your collar,_ soils your bosom, spoil your clothes, or, in the more expressive language of poetry, "It spoils your collars, spoils your clothes, Stuffs up your cars and tills up your nose." As long as this city has existed, yet as regards improvements, comparatively speaking, 'tis 'only in its infliney. Till the commencement of the war the in habitants lived in a kind of haphazard style, relying on Congress for im provements. Since the war, they have been ruieiy awakened, yet they are dil atory in following up the example shown them by yankee enterprise. One thing they know thoroughly ; to charge well for everything they have got for sale.— House rents arc rather lower now than for years previoutly, and marketing I understand is as cheap as iu Pentisylva ni a. The Receptions at Speaker Colfax's in 4 1 1 street arc well attended by Sena tors, Representatives, Generals and elite of the city—occasionally a sprinkling of Department Clerks are found there, and as cordially received as the highest rank. Next Thursday evening will be the last of these receptions, as the House has re solved to hold evening sessions for the despatch of business. Saturday last was devoted to speech making in the House. Mr. Orth, Indiana, occupied his hour in a clear well read speech, after which Mr. Stevens from Penn'a. The galleries were crowded in anticipation of this speech. The Uou. Gent caused roars of laughter by his replies to Mr. Price of lowa. After Mr. S.'s speech the House thinned out immediately. It is certain ly an unexpected sight for country folks to see a member reading a long speech to an almost empty house, not more than twenty members being present, and the Speaker either reading a newspaper or chatting with an ill. C. Were it not that St. Patrick's day is so near, we may almost infer from the specimens of good weather of the last few days, that March having "come in like a lion was going out like a lamb," I t but like the Ca adians just now,we must not 6.114 St. trick; ore their . admirers too much. T eir was a Fenian meeting here on Wednesday evening last. After the usual amount- of spouting, the meet ing quietly dispersed. Of course money is asked, and by many freely given.— 'TiS not supposed our amicable relations with Groat Britain will be disturbed by the contemplated Fenian movement. I am glad to see the proper authorities are waking up to necessity of Sanitary measures before the warm weather is upon us. This city has had scenes of sufferinf , and death to appal the stoutest. Long trains of ambulances filled with groaning, mutilated braves—wendinr , 0 their wz - Ly to the hospitals. Along other streets might ae seen sail processions of those who had ceased to suffer, wrapped in their Country's flag, tending towards the resting place for the weary. May such sights ne'er again be seen, either us the effects of war or pestilence, therefore it behooves the proper authorities to see that sanitary measures are strictly en force. Having heard that you contemplate a visit, I say come on. The N. C. R. W. having finished the double track, and the excellent arrangements to be found ou it, as well as on the Baltimore Branch of the Balt. & Ohio R. R. invite a trip to the Capitol of the Nation.

Freedmen's village has been instructed by Major General 0. 0. Howard 'to divide the Arlington estate into five-acre lots,to be rented on written agreements, to the freedmen, the rent to be paid at each harvesting of the crops. Fifteen acres on the west side of the road are assigned to be aivided and rented in the same, manner, about twenty. acres to be used as a garden by the dependents of the .Freedmen's village. This estate is not confiscated property, and therefore cannot revert to the heirs at the death of the owners, but it was sold for taxes,and purchased 'by the aovernment for the purposes to which it is now being ap plied. • —Jefferson Davis is now afflicted with a sore throat— . --:-Albapy ilrgus.
