The Congressional Library. OJT ?BK BOOK-MEN OP CONOBESB —HOW OUR PATRIOTIC SPEECHES ARE PREPARED. Washington, July 11, 18 M» Tlio most costly and wonderful front of the Capitol faces away from Wash ington City ; but the quietest and cool est face or the building is that which overlooks the shady grounds at the head of Pennsylvania avenue, and of this, the very centre is Library Hall. It comprises much of the main build ing of the original capitol; the majes tic-iron dome directly overhanging it, and close to its interior entrance are the most venerable and historic places—the old Supreme Court, the old House, the old Senate. From ita windows Is afford ed a glorious prospect, made soft and sufleruble close to the eye by the foliage in the sloping lawn and the plash of waters in the basin where Thomas Ben ton stopped to drink every morning be fore going to his desk, aud chequered, and sunny, and rolling, further away, by the cluster of the city, the silver of the river, the stride of the high Arling ton Heights. Within this Library Hull, the best men of the country have felt their little ness, sitting in silent alcoveß to hear what letters had to say for their yet un delivered argument, and gaining Insight as they gleaned of the methods of the Master Orators who had passed the fever of statesmanship and left the ut terances to discourage imitation. This library is in great part repro \ duced every year in the address of our public men. The Globe may be called J 'reissue of it in parts. There is no agiarist so gieat as au orator. But a »zen or so of his models have lived.— emosthenes, Cicero, Cato, Chatham, Mirabeau, Webster—these are the men, the rest are the mimics. The Congressional Library is assum ing, by the spacious extensions of it, now almost completed, and by the more generous contributions which are filling eveu these new corridors, a place of dig nity among the collections of the world. It lias now in it 135,000 volumes, with capacity for 50,000 volumes yet unbought. HISTORY OF THE LIBRARIES OF THE UNITED STATES. In 1802 an act of Congress permitted the purchase of SI ,000 worth of books for the use of the two Houses. Only 3,000 volumes stood in the library when the British burned the Capitol in 1815. Then Thomas Jefferson, being in straitened circumstances, offered to sell his private library of 7,000 books to the United States. They were appraised at 523,000, and paid for in bonds of the United States. To this transaction the Feder alist party, on personal grounds, made a stoutopposition. The library of Jeffer son was not the leading, private collec tion of the country, but was well adapt ed to a lawyer and politician, and to such nleasant smatter of morals and metaphysics as Jefferson loved to in dulge in. No oneconspieuous donation of books was ever received from a private individual, and Lho general yearly up propriution for the purelmse of books continued to be from SI,OOO to $2,000 a year. Now and then the British Mu seum and the French Jiihliolkcquc Jm periale sent a package of their own publications to its shelves; but in 1801 a defective flue caused a lire to break into the library, and of the 55,000 vol umes there assembled but 20,000 were saved. The firemen, with a traditional disregard for letters, introduced a hose into the library, and wet everything from JosephUH to Kossuth. The value of the books lost, marketably, was prob ably $200,000. in 1552 tiie old library hud been re built, according to the designs of Thus. 11. Walters, at a cost of §U2,(IU(), entirely of iron. Jt was in 1852 that Congress gave its only liberal appropriation ($75, 000), since which time the common sum devoted to this cause has been $7,000 a year. Next year SS<>,UUU will be asked for, to meet accruing indebtedness, which is as many dollars asT.be British Museum annually receives pounds. A recent act of Congress transferred to this place the 40,01)0 volumes of the .Smith sonian institute. THE EXTENSION. The two new wings have cost $lOO,OOO. Their ceilings, shelves, walls,and lloors are of solid wrought iron. Only the hooks are combustible. They increase four times the former capacity of the place. The shelves have a uniform space between them, aud the bottom shelf, around the entire library is prac tical, so that it can be removed to admit the great folios. There are three lloors or stories in the main library, and four stories in the wings; these stories are common in each wing, but are gained from below by two stairways only, in the main hall, which is the south front of the capitol, the architectural decora tions next the ceiling take up the fourth story’s space, all of which is utilized iu • the extensions. On each lloor there are 44 alcoves for readers, making upward of 140 in all. Aud there are, besides, tables iu the new wings, which will make the library accommodate as many as 300 readers at a time. The ornamentation of the library is not unlike that of the Astor Library, too ornate, possibly, in the main corri dor, but not glaringly so; while in the wings care has been taken to subdue all decorations to a consistency with the quiet and contemplate purposes for which the place is to be used. The plaster busts and casts of Socrates, Plato, and other-worthies, which adorned the library some years ago, were, happily, destroyed by the tire. They were cheap. They turned the library into an image vender’s shop, and brought into it big booted admirers, who disturbed the readers. In respect to the material of the door, the library is defective. Every step on the hard marble disturbs the reader, while in the British Museum the doors are of gutta percha, on which the wheels of chairs and the march of visitors is noiseless. The gilding to which we have adverted as possibly out of keeping, will probably be found not too bright for the dark days of Washington, when even the soul of Carlyle would be uneasy. THE LIBRARY DIRECTORY. There ia probably no gentleman in America possessing a more practical knowledge of books and authors than the present Librarian of Congress, Mr. ' A. It. Spoflbrd of North-Eastern Ohio, an appointee of Mr. Lincoln. One of his lirst labors has been the cataloguing of the books, a conscientious work which comprises 1,2(10 pages. He has given a stimulus to the collection which has already made it of credit throughout the country and foreign nations, and it is to be hoped that in this case, at least, the country will possess one public savant not subject to the limitations of The -Congressional Li brary now outnumbers in the quantity of its works any collection in America. Two hundred thousand dollars spent in collecting books in Europe would make it so invaluable that the Capital City would soon become a resort for scholars of all specifications. Mr. Spoilbrd lias eight assistants, and his control of the Smithsonian Library will place him in correspondence with l,o()U learned societies in all parts of Europe. 'With these there will be constant exchanges of books and pamphlets. Mr. fcipollbrd is also resolved to see that the copyright act, demanding a copy of every printed book to be deposited in the Library, is also carried out to its extremity. No copyright is valid without such deposi tion. curiosities of speech-making. To this library.come all the preparers of “set” speeches that they may find wisdom and phrase. MeDougall, of California, is a steady reader of Comte's Positive Philosophy; Mr. Leming, author of the famous Marlborough, Hannibal and Grant speech, read 12 weeks here to get it up. Charles Sum ner reads more books than any other Senator and Representative ; they are his messmates. Gratz Brown is a close student of mental science and political philosophy. John L. Baldwin and Mr. Edmunds, of Vermont are attentive readers. Conness, of California, and a few others never drew a book from the shelves. The State Department has a special library of 24,0U0 volumes, and from these Mr. Seward gets his easy diction ' and perpetual hopefulness.— N. Y. Tribune. General Grant’s Insignia. Since his promotion to the rank of General, there has been an informal meeting of General Grant’s staff and several prominent army officers to dis cuss' the subject of his uniform. The conclusion arrived at was that a metal lic Bhiefd, substituted for the large cen tral star on the shoulder-strap, would be a proper device to indicate the rank of General and Commander of all the armies of the United States, A Leading Republican’s Opinion of tbe Republican Party. Henry J. Raymond is chairman of the National Committee of the Repub lican party. That Is the highest seat which any man can occupy In a politi cal party In this country. Mr. Raymond is also a leading Republican member of Congress. Nor isthatall. Heisowner and editor of a leading Republican newspaper. All that ought to consti tute Mr. Raymond very good Republi can authority. As such we accept him, and would direct the careful attention of all our readers to the following notice of the Republican party, which we find in Mr. Raymond’s paper of yesterday: Bo intent, for four years, were the electors, upon putting down the rebel lion, that no very rigid scrutiny was instituted as to candidates for office. Loyalty was a sufficient, if not the only test. We were all demanding the de struction of Slavery as a penalty for re bellion. But we all in favor of forcing universal negro sufirage upon other States, nor are wo all in favor of negro social equality. In reference to the latter question the Almighty estab lished a social distinction between the white and black raceß against which we are not disposed to rebel. But the rebellion ended, as it inevita bly must have ended, in the destruction of Slavery. It ended, also, leaving the Northern State Governments and Con gress under the auspices and control of the ultra political Abolitionists, oDjoy-. ing largely the confidence, of the people/ That confidence, however, has been abused and betrayed. Congress met to rush through the House of Representa tives a bill for universal negro sufirage in the UistrictofColumbia. The leaders In both Houses announced their deter mination to make negro sufirage a con dition of restoration to the Union. The whole power of Congress was surren dered to a “Committee of Fifteen.” When the popular sentiment revolted against uuiversal negro suffrage, that Committee adopted a scheme intended to keep eleven Stutes out of the Union until after the next Presidential elec tion ! Congress, for eight months, has been holding back the work of reconstruc tion. It is committed, by a dozen votes, to the monstrous falsehood and absurdi ty that Tennessee was out of the Union, forgetting or disregarding the fact that in every such vote were stultifying and condemning themselves. Tennes see was represented in the Republican National Convention of 1864. She was then, if ever, out of the Union! Every Republican member of Congress voted for Andrew Johnson, while Tennessee was, if ever, out of the Union ! Andrew Johnson remained in his seat iu the United States Senate, side by side with Sumner, Wade, Wilson, Chandler, Trumbull, &c., after Tennessee, if ever, was out of the Union ! Away, then, with fhe miserable false-pretense that ordinances of secession took States out of the Union. We denied it at the be ginning and during the rebellion. It was our best aud and strongest ground. We rallied aud united the people upon that ground. They gave their money and shed their blood to dispel the heresy of sseession, and to vindi cate the integrity of the Union. The occasion and necessity which produced the Republican party, have recurred again. That party has broken from its anchorage aud swung from its moorings. It is at sea with unrelia ble pilots aud an erroneous chart. The Congressional leaders have con strained a Union of the conservative elements of both parties for the sake of the Union. They have made unprovo ked, wanton,fierce war upon tbe Presi dent. Tiie Republican party has been distracted and demoralized at Washing ton, The Destroyed Bridge at Uarre-de-Gracc. The bridge of the Philadelphia, Wil mington and Baltimore Railroad Com pany, at Havre*de*Grace, the wooden spans of which were blown off into the river by the tornado, on Wednesday evening, was one of tliefinestspecimens of bridge architecture in tills country, aiuh next to the great English Victoria bridge, the most expensive ever erected by any corporation. Crossing the Sus quehanna at a point 3,195 feet from aiiore to shore, thirteen spans were re quired. These spans rested upon piers, fourteen in number, and the magnitude of the work may be imagined when it is known that some of these piers stand in forty feet of water. The piers were commenced in 1861, and were not ready for tiie superstructure till October last, wheu the engineers began tiie construction of the wood work. The bridge was known as tiie Howe truss, each arcli consisting of four ribs, eight by nine inches, making, with die interstices, a beam of thirty-seven and a half inches deep. The traces and girders connecting and strengthening each span made a huge mass of timber, sufiieient in appearance to resist almost any amount of pressure. There were twelve of these immense spans , each two hundred and fifty feet iu length while the draw was one hundred and ninety feet in length. All the spans, with the exception of one to the west of the draw, were in place, and the un finished one was rapidly approaching completion when the storm occurred. What is most remarkable of the storm is the fact that the little steamer Port Deposit was but a short distance above the bridge when the wind struck it, and those on board only felt a strong breeze. Frail temporary structures erected on rafts and moored near the bridge were left entirely unharmed by the wind. Hanging sign boards on poles at the water’s edge, and dilapidated frame buildings escaped uuhurt, while the immense structure, built as strong as it was supposed wood and iron could make it, was almost in an instant lifted up, and falling into the water, sundered. The storm was one of the most singular ever experienced in this countr y.— Baltimore Sun.

Diseases of the skin are numerous and, with hut oue or two exceptions, may ail be traced to impurity of tho blood. lu muny persons tills impurity is born in tiie system; while others acquire it through improper treatiueut of scores of diseases. (Juder tuis head may bo classed— Ist, Scrofula,—Tuis disease is hereditary and is transmitted from generation to generation. It is caused by a transgresslou oi the laws of nature, botli moral aud physical; in other words, it Is caused by tncc. Acting as a latent poison, it reduces the vitality of tho blood, aud weakens the depurating organs, so that ihey fall to discharge or cast out the Impurities are continually generating In the system. A person physically pure acquires gouorhcea, or some other secret disease; he undergoes a course of mercury, tin- disease is dried up, and the patient pronounced well. Vain deluslou. Tho complaint is not cured, Its channel is only diverted. Instead of maxing its appearauce outwardly, it acts on the Internal organs, and scroiula, which is bequeathed from father to sou. Is the resuit. Many persons who ure per fectly free from all immorality and vice are ai llicted wlili scrofulu. They are suffering for the sius of their fathers anu laboring under the curse inscribed In the Bo kof Books. “ 1 will visit the iniquities of tho fathers upou tlielr children.” 'lo cure this dreadful complaint It Is neofe.s sary that tho blood should be thoroughly puri fied. all the organs of the body brought lnloSw healthy state of notion, and the system braced up and strengthened by invigorating tonics.— Look at ilie articles used in compounding Mlshler’s Bitters; see the array of purifying und luvlgoratlng mendlcaments, and say whether there is au article In the whole list of medlctues that equals it. We here emphatically assert, without leur of contradiction, that MISuLEK’S BITTERS WILL CUKE ALL KINDS OF SCROFULOUS DISEASES. It purifies the blood, It strengthens the Inter nal oigans and aids them to perform thair nat ural functions, It is u stimulant aud a tonic aud It will cure Scroiula. 2d, Running bores and Ulcers.—Running sores aud ulcers Invariably indicate a scrofu lous laint.

They are, However, “but makiDg bad worse,” lor the Impurities that were discharged from the system inrough tiie medium or the sore now act lnte.naliy and cause Innumerable diseases aud oiten death. Tiie only true and sure cure for all running sores and ulcers is Mishier’s Billers, a continued and persevering use of which will most certainly effect a per viunent cure. 3d, ball Rheum.—bait Rheum Is a vague, In definite, though, popular term given to al most all the non-febnie erupLious of tne skin which afflict adults, ills generally an erup tlou of vesicies in small, distinct ulcers, ac companied with a smarting, tingling sensation, with a tendeuey lo creep orspreud over the ad joining sunace.

Numerous remedies were recommended by friends, and some of them tested, bul with out relief. Your Hoollatid’a German Bitters wero recommended by persons wnu hud tried them, and whose favorable mention of these Bitters induced me to try them. 1 must con fess that I nad an aversion to Patent Medicines from the “thousand and one" quack "Bit ters,” whose only atm seems to be to palm off sweetened aud drugged liquor upon the com munity in a sly way, and the tendency of which, I fear, is to make many a coullruied drunkard. Upon learning that yours was really a medicinal preparation I took It with happy effect, its actlou, not only upon the stomach, but upon Hie nervous system, was prompt aud gratifying. I feel Hiut 1 have de rived great and permanent beuelll lrotn tne use of a few bottles. From Die Kev. E. 1).

Yours truly, E. D. FENDALL. From Rev. I). Merrige pastor of 1 lie I’ossyunk Baptist Church, Philadelphia. From the many respectable recommenda tions given to Dr. Hooliand’s German Bit ters, I was induced to give them a trial. Alter using several bottles I found them to be a good remedy for debility, and a most excellent tunic for the stomach. From Rev. Win. Smith, formerly Pastor of trio Vlncentlowu aud Millville (N. J.) Baptist Churches. Having used In my family a number of bot tles oi your Hoofland’s German Bitters, i have to say that I regard them as an excellent med icine, specially adapted to remove the diseases they are recommended for. They strengthen and invigorate the system when debilitated, and are useful in disorders of the liver, loss of appetite, Ac. I have also recommended them to several of my friends, who have tried them, and found them greatly beneficial In the resto ration of health. SHULTZ A BRO. Yours truly, WILLIAM SMITH. (XW Hutchinson street. Philadelphia. , i D From the Rev. Levi G. Beck, Pastor of the Baptist Chiirch, Pemberton, N. J., formerly of the North Baptist Church, Philadelphia, at pre sent Pastor of the Baptist Church, Chester, Pa. I have known Hoofiand’s German Bitters favorably for a number of years’ I have used them in my own family, and have been so pleased witli th> lr effects, that I was Induced to recommend them to many others, and know that they have operated in a strikingly benefi cial manner. I take great pleasure in thus publicly proclaiming this fact, and calling the attention of those afflicted with the diseases for which they are recommended, to theseßltters, knowing from experience that my recommen dation will be sustained. Ido this morecheer full as Hoofland’s Bitters ls-intended to benefit the afflicted, and is “ not a rum drink." Yours, truly, LEVI G. BECK. From Rev. J. Newton Brown, D. D., Editor of the Encyclopedia of Religious Knowledge and Christian Chronicle, Philadelphia. Although not disposed to favor or recom mend Patent Medicines in general, through distrust of their Ingredients and effect*, I yet know of no sufficient reasons why a man may not testify to the brneflts he believes himself to have received from any simple preparation, In the hope that he may thus c utnbule to the benefit of others. I do this the more readily In regard to Hoof land’s German Bitters, prepared by Dr. C. M. Jackson, oi this city, because I was prejudiced against them for many years, under the im pression that they were chiefly an alcoholic mixture. I am indebted to my friend, Robert Shoemaker, Esq., for the removal of this preju dice by proper tests and for encouragement i o try them wnen suffering from great and long continued debility. The use of three bottles of these Bitters at toe beginning of the present year, was followed by evident relief ana restor ation to a degree of bodily and mental vigor which I had not felt for six months before, and had almost despaired of regaining. I therefore thank God and my frJenddirecting me to the use of them. J. NEWTON BROWN. Philadelphia. From the Rev. Tnos. Winter. D. J>., Pastor of Roxborough Baptist Church. Dear Sir : I feel Itdtie to your excellent prep aration, Hoofland's German Bitters, to add my testimony to the deserved reputation it has obtained. I have for years, at times, been troubled with great disorder in my head and nervous system. I was advised by a friend to try a bottfe of your German Bitters.
