Yes, lift the rash, and with it lift

And let the cheering light they shed

With mellowed brightness en my head.
Oh ! oh ! farewell ! a last good night! ,

The serenade was hia.d by him, ,
While sleeping sohndly was thelady.,
The pumpkin was not meant to be
An instrument of death, sh, no—
It only made the minstrel see
Stars that do net in heaven glow.

He uttered quite ea wild a yell • -
As if there'd struck upon his " block"

linlirOssiousr of Washington—No.' I.
. . .
Johrt-Iltandolph's satirical remark that
Washipitten wail a city of magnificent dis
13ncea has dedeived the old world, in which it
1.104 beon accepted as truth. It is forgotten
that'hOt Roanoke was a chartered libertine
in his sietkeh, and that a long period has
elapsed sirice'ret -indulged in the sneer. Clan
vase evenr the edaaited elasses , “ in the' old
country',' tor an antichistorT °pinta', for a
preconceived impression of Washington, and
1 it will amount to this—that Washington, laid
out in thohope of one day becoming it-great
metropolis .of • a mighty empire, was coin,
menced tipon a scale too vast—that, from the
Capitol it one end to the White House; at
the other',. was a distance, of several miles—
that streets and squares existed only upon
paper,..thens really being only a' single
street oi- any importance—that, except
during the'Session of the Legislature, there
were few., ibabitants—that, in the •few busy
Moilits," t ti;V bnlir..„4 the' residents.or. visitors
.lived in jrnmense hotels—that some five
hundred, betties, or so, constituted the whole
city, andtlist those were "few and far apart."
Such, I tinol:4Clo confess; was thq impression 1
of Washington which I received in England,
chiefly from books; 'and though it was
weakened and somewhat altered during some
years;residenee in this country, such was the
general impression on my mind before actually
visiting the-city itself.
There had been enough written to the con
trary, by-foreign tourists, during the last five
and-twentx.years, to ,cause a modification of
this impression—travels by Basil Hall and
James Stuitii; Harriet Martineau' and Mrs.
Maury, Thomas Hamilton . and 'the late Alex
ander Mackay, Archibald Prentice and Charles
Dickens, Yetties Silk Enckingham, and Others'
of minor note; in Which, a more flattering and
faithful Moir of 'Washington was communi
cated. But tin, each and all of these works
there, perpetually 'reenrred: that unfortunate
phrases unity oftnagnitleentdistanges," which
seemed to ha t iso struck allthe different writers
as being , true' vas well as antithetical. And
thus, the original impression remained, very
slightly modified by travellers' descriptions.
How that4mpression originated it is not
easy to aseettfdn. Very probably from youth
ful peruffalAf Tom Moore's poems—which
Were Yerf falfiEitir to Irish schoolboys—when
he was in , hifi, prime. Moore's ic Poems Re.
lating to: 40rierica" (published after his
Little's Poems and Translations from the Odes
of Anacreotts has singular fasebudion for
young IrishTpeople from the time that the co
lebrated Iriskdifelodies and Leila Roolth etiar
'bled MOM,* take rank as a great' poet.
At that time,,,pamely,: within the first quarter
of 'the prase* 'century, Moore's name. was
such • a houffeltold word all over Ireland, that
it would have . been very difficult to have met
any man, wetatin, or child of tolerable educe,
tion unable to - repeat many of his finest lyrics,
most of his exquisite passages.' In his
poems relating, to America, (which country
he visited in t . B-1/304,) several passages depur
relating to W,Spington—as he saw it in 1801. 77
not long aftere . the Executive Government had
been 'removqr thither, from' Philadelphia.

dissatisfied with the working of 'the Desimers:
tie Government of the 'United States, and de
lighted Many aristocratic readers in England;
we dare say, by affectedly lamenting the
"youthful decay," which, he contended, was
already deep-seated in the core of the coun
try. It pleased him, also, to . exercise his wit
upon the newly-founded City of Washington,
which, to his surprise, was by no means so
extensive er complete as London, Paris, or
other great European capitals, dating a thou
sand years back, to say nothing of snob ve
nerable, though faded antiquity, as Rome
herself. He granted that, the situation was
good, "beside the proud Potowmac's stream,"
but attacked the city itself, (then only a few
years old.)
This - embryo capital, where fancy sees
Equares in morasses, obelisks in trees ;
Wnioh Beootd-sighted seers. e'en now adorn
With ehrines nnbuilt and sages yet unborn."
Nor, doubtful, perhaps, of the reception of his
own mere opinion, did Moore neglect to back
it up with corroborative evidence supplied by
other travelldrs. Be quoted very freely from
the travels of a Mr. Weld, who had visited
Washington even earlier than himself, and, if
possible, was more discontented because, at
the matured oge of t two years, (A. D. 1802,)
it was not already so complete a metropolis,
or so extensive and populous, as any of the
great capitals of the great European empires
and kingdonit. Weld had one sentence which
Moore quoted with great apparent satisfac
tion : it ran thus gg To bo under the necessity
of going through a deep wood for one or two
miles, perhips, in order to see a next-door
neighbor, and in the same city, is a curious
and, I belieee, a novel circumstance." Moore
himself, writing in 1800, declared that the
publitilmildings, when he was in Washington,
were in a state of suspension, and that if the
private buildings exhibit the same character
laths displaio&arrogant speculation and pre
mature ruin; and the few ranges of houses
which were began some years ago have re
mained so long waste and unfinished, that they
aro now for the most part dilapidated."
But, it may be urged, this evidently referred
to a very' early time in the annals of Wash
ington 7 True enough—but hence came the
early impression, strengthened also by Ran
dolph's oft.quoted sentence. Moreover, wheb
Moore collected all his Poems, in 1841—'2, for
a miffed edition, though - he qualified some Of
his opinions relative to the GOvernment and
People of America, he did not withdraw any
statement which he had made as fact. At all
events, up to the period of actually visiting
Washington, the Moore-fah impression con
tinned so strong that I expected to find a city
planned upon a magnificent scale; adorned
with a splendid Capitol and several noble Go
vernment buildings; studded, at long inter.
vale, with great hotels, principally consisting
of wood Ind plaster; and some five hundred
stores, dwelling-houses spread over a great
extent, some miles in extent from the Capitol
to the Profident's Mansion. How widely dif
ferept tbi fact was from the impression re
mains to be frankly communicated. As, by a
delightful fiction, the editorial We" is sup,
posed incapable of being in the wrong, this
article is written in the first person.
-Apropos of this editorial infallibility. It is
a tradition, aniong press-people, that, once
upon a time, an Editor who rather piqued him
self upon the fullness and accuracy of his
cclocals," received intelligence, on what
seemed to bo sufficient authority, of the sui
cide of a wealthy and respectable gentleman,
residing In a neighboring village. Of course,
there was the usual expression of " deep re
gret" for this cc much-to-be-lamented catas-
trophe," with a strong expression of sympathy I
for the Defunct, and a glowing eulogy on the
excellence of his character, and so forth.
Next day, while the editor was engaged, in
his sanctum, in the abstruse labor of cut
ting paragraphs from his exchanges, a
stout, gentlemanly middle-aged person ap
peared before him, suspiciously accompa
nied by a horee.whip. My name," said
be, "is Smith—James Smith, of Welbore."
Looking up from his occupation, the engaged
and somewhat indifferent Editor responded,
" Indeed ?" "Xes, sir," said Smith, „ the
Very man whom you killed off in your paper
yesterday. Pray, sir, why did you say that I
had committed suicide I?' The Editor men
tioned his authority for the statement. Ah !"
'add Smith. to So it was that villain Jones?
, He heard me say that it was enough to make
a inanihapg himself to, see the way that my
farm-servants waste my fodder. Well, Mr.
Editor, you are not to blame. That is clear
•enough. But yqn will explain—you, will
apologize—you will state' in your next paper
that you were misinformed, and that I never
.committed or contemplated suicide ?" ;The
Editor drew himself up to his full height,
Which did not happen to be much;"
and - responded in a grave and dignified
manner : "Mr. Smith ! Yon demand 'an
impossibility. What I state in my paper
must never be discredited nor contradicted by
myself. The influence of my journal requi . res
that its readers shall Implicitly belieie in the
eternal accuracy of every sentence write."
"Surely," said pertinacious Smith, "Surely'
you cannot hesitate to Flay that lam elhie,
which all my neighbors will see is,onlY the
fact ?" After a pause;thenolemn Editor re
plied, "Having said that you committed sui
cide, lam bound to stand by it. Theionly
concession I can make, as you seem tube a
'sensible man, is to say that the rope brolie be
fore life was — quite—gEdthed, and : that hopes of
yimr, final recovery arealrengly_entertained."
So much for maintaining the in of
the Editorial "We."' -
Coming back to our theme i Leaving , Balti

miles was gamily reached. In an hour and
half, a'• branch' - that
ihncted line, the Baltimore and Ohio Rail

Letter from Harrisburg.
Correspondence of The Prem.]
lleuurantiaa, February 3
The House of Representatives has adopted a,
resolution to print all the passenger railway,bills
that have been offered in that body, in a collected
forth, for the use of the Members and the pnblie
information. There is no likelihood that the
House will take action on any railroad" bill until
this printing is finished. The complication of the
subject arising out of the number of these bills
is so great, that this course Is absolutely necessary
to enable the members to some to their considera
tion with proper kcowledge. Thera are not only
bills for almost every available street, but some
times several for the same street. The clashing
of interests proclaims great turmoil and confusion'
and Harrisburg is filled with the friends and
'agents of
. the various routes, the different sets of
commissioners or corporators, and of the railways
already in operation that will be damaged by the
establishment of rival railroads on adjacent streets.
The hotels are lull to overflowing, and the lob
bies of both houses thronged with these self-con
stituted representatives.
The audacity of these borers passes all desorip
tion. They form combinations among themselves,
naming in their bills commissioners from all parts
of the State ; men, some of whom have never even
seen the city of Philadelphia, who are thus ap
pointed to lay railroads in her streets, solely be
cause of their supposed influence with members
from the interior counties. They beset the mem
bers from dawn to midnight; intruding npoir the
privacy of theiriodgings ; interrupting them while
in the discharge of their duties in session; dogging
them to and from the committee rooms, and poison
log, their very meals by their harassing and im
pertinent annoyances. , They have not stopped at
mare representations of the propriety of granting
what they desire, but have actually got so far as
to threaten members with opposition to measures
in their charge if they prove not docile and obe
dient.
Under the former action of the rule establish
ing the private calendar in the House, a mem
ber in the interest of any one of these outside
rings of speculators could defeat action on any
private bill, by objecting it off the calendar
week after week through a whole session. But.
Mr.
week_
now rule, regulating the ope
ration of the calendar, has broken the effeot of
this, In great part, by providing that a bill could
only be' objected off of it in this manner once,
and coma up necessarily for notion In the following
week.
In the Senate, however, the most effectual steps
have been resolved upon to destroy this whole ne
farious system of boring. About two-thirds of the
senators have determined that they will no longer
submit to the insulting dictation of these lobby
members, or subjeot themselves to the degrading
suspicions which necessarily attach to legislators
noting under such pressure. They have oome to a
cordial understanding that they will not pass any
bill, for railroads or for other purposes, pressed
upon them by lobby influence, and that the sure
effeot of an outside combination to procure the pas
sago of any bill through the Senate shall be to
work its defeat. You may depend upon the cor
rectness of this information. It senses from the
best authority, and the birds of prey who are
spreading their wings for a flight to Harrisburg
had better make up their minds to roost quietly
at home.
Those who have gained a dishonest living by
services as borers may turn their attention to
more reputable business, and the legislators will
be left in peace to attend to their duties. Sessions
will be shortened, and work better done. The
wheels of legislation will roll more smoothly, and
the laws will be far more in accordance with the
public interests than heretofore. The people, who
have long looked upon this boring system as a foul
ulcer upon the body politic, corrupting our law
makers, and sapping the foundations of free go
vermient, will hail with joy the adoption of any
means to bring it to an end. The Senators who
put the lobby to death will both deserve and se
cure the lasting gratitude of the people in all farts
of the State. BENTLEY.
ACCIDENT AND DEATEI.-012 Friday week,
Mr. James Miller, residing some three milts west
of Greensburg, Pa., set out from home for a neigh
bors, at some distance, taking with him his gun.
Not returning in • the evening, some anxiety was
felt for his safety, and on Saturday, in traversing
the country in the vicinity in a direct line between
the points, some one discovered him lying on the'
line of the ffemplield Railroad, In an excavation.
It is thought in passing that way at night he must
have fallen down some fifteen or twenty feet, re•
calving suolvinjuries as to prevent him from get
ting out alone; and he perished during the night,
.there being considerable mud and water at the
spot. Mr. M. was an aged man, a Sootehman,and
served in Wellington's army at the battle of
Waterloo. . V
