Old; the finest site in Landon utterly spoiled:
There are two contemptible fountains; the jet

lay only for a few hours in the day.
Parliament street, with the Admiralty, •

*bald buy a lot ofiand' and. Viand a substantial,
-edifice upon it,'which, with the usual repairs,
lAvould last for several generations—there aro
'hundreds such buildings in Philadelphia, 'olier
a 4 eentury old, which exhibit no symptoms of
decay.' There John Bull -runs' up a house
will last him until the end of. his land-'
14.86 ; . and, instead of a substantial building,
its Inaba walls only a single brick thick, with
partitions of lath plaster, and the front
90saired• over with Roman cement, which
I 'stone-colored paint brings Into a similitude
le Portland 'stone. When HORACE GREELEY
Malted London, in 1661, he was charmed with
'tegeut street, and, in his very entertaining
ietters to his own Tribune,- gave a glewing
*Stription .of 'its architectural beauty, par
4:Wady complimenting it (if I recollect
ghtly) upon the beautiful stone frontage of its
*prams. He was not then aware that he' was'
praising a _great cc sham "—that the seeming
stone-frontage was painted cement—that the
houses themselves, built on land leased for
ninety-nine years from 1814, were destined to
last just until the expiration of that term, and
that the annual paintings, piecings, decors
tioni, and repairs, which the climate of Lon
flen;and their want of substantial force render
'necessary, cautea an annual outlay which falls
upon the tenants' pockets.
n'e comparison of Washington with Paris
bas sometimes been made; but there is very
little parnilelism. Fedi, which is over a thou-
Sand years old, is a very different city from
modern Washington, which became life me
tropolle die United States in 1800, and was
I lialtr , coinnsenced 4 - es to; Its buildings, so
lately as Apiii; - 1761=tnirve5..........C...0- o f the
Capitol itself not having been laid witit
Umber 1793, when the Father of his Country,
whose illustrious name the new city received,
personally officiated. Ae a good Free-mason,
he did his work, "by line and rule," in a mas
terly manner, and then, as on all occasions,
in •publits or private, acted "upon the
square."
It is impossible to say, with adherence to
the truth, that Pennsylvania Avenue, With its
numerous good points, reminded me of the
far-famed Boulevards of Paris :—lndeed, it
struck me, at first glance, as beariag, a pretty
close resemblance to Sackville street, in Dub
lin, which, by reason of its great, width 'and
truly line edifices, justly is considered .as the
finest street in Queen Victoria's' Angliceri
dominions. And, as Da bit n is' mentioned, it
may be fair to add that, in one important re
spect, it has features not unlike those ,siffileh,
give such a smirked character to Washingion.
I allude to the great public buildings, in each
City, being near, although not crowding, each,
other. in London, in Paris, in Vienne, in Nu;
plea, in Brussels, in all the great cities of the old
world (St. Peteralffirgh, excepted,) the public
buildings oresq much acattered about, that it is
quite a journey to get even a transient view of
them all "within the compass of a summer's
day." Now, in Washington they lie within rea
sonable contiguity, yet not so close as to dwarf
ono by comparison with another, its neighbor.
The Boulevards which form a circle around
what may bo called interior Paris, aro gene
rally, though not always, wide streets, finely
macadamized, well shaded with trees, and
consisting of stately stone houses, the ground
story of each being usually converted into
shops or restaurants, or caps. You stand
in the Place de la Concorde, the Obelisk of
Luxor, (originally erected in part of the groat
Temple of Thebes, by the Great' Sesostris,
over 3400 years ago,) occupying the spot, it
is said, where Louts the Sixteenth was guil
lotined. At your back, on the other side of the
Seine, is that stately building, the Chamber of
Deputies ; on your left, stretches the long
avenue of the Champs Elysees, with the fa
mous Arch of Triumph at its extremity ; on
Your right lies the Garden of the Tuileries,
and the Palace, now united to the Louvre.
The Rue do Rivoli, now the most handsome
street in Europe, forms the outer boundary of
the Gardens, the. Palace, .and the Louvre, as
far as, and even .beyond, the Palate Royal.
Right 'before -you, at the end .of the
Rue Royale, is the magnificent Church
of the iledeloine. Reaching that, what an
extended and stately succession of Bottle
' verde circuitously winds through the city. Ori
ginally, it is known to have actually' formed
its enter surrounding. Indeed, it was so late
ly as in the year 1670, by command of Louis
XIV, that the walls and towers which sur
rounded his 'Paris ' were pulled down, the
ditches filled up, 'and the broad street con
strlicted and planted, which still indicated its
origin, by retaining the name of Boulevard—
which means bulwark or rampart. Twelve of
these Boulevards, each a continuation, encir
cle the city on the right Bide of the Seine,
then, crossing the bridge of Austerlitz, six
more Boulevards complete the circle, ending
within sight of the Place de la Concorde,
whence you started. From that place to the
Porto St. Martin, there is great business and
great fashion activity,—but there is some
thing very like stagnation in every other Boa
levsrd. What strangers cannot help seeing,
and what makes their first impression of the
riches, grandeur, activity, and beauty of the
Boulevards, is that extent which runs from the
Church of the Madeleine to the Porte St. Ma
rtin—actually only a sixth part, as far as length
goes, of the whole circle of the Boulevards.
-Ascend the highest point of view, within
Faris, or on the hill of Montmartre, and you•
sou a splendid city, dark with the weather
stains of ton centuries, through which a small
creek, here called the river Seine, winds its
way, dividing the city into two unequal parts—
a chaos of benies, churches, hotels, and pub
lic buildings. Vastness and confusion seem
the elements of that great city. In the same
way, look over London, from the summit of
St. Paul's, or from the hill of Highgate, and
the Self-same sort of view is before you.--
only that tho streets are very much darker
(vim coal•smnt; the Thames is three
times as wide as the Seine ; and, Whereas;at
most seasons; Palle luxuriates in a cloud!, SS
sky, a dense dun , cloud of smoke ever hangs
over London, like a pall, and is-visible -for
miles before the city itself Is entered.
;Now, come with me to the Capitol at'Wash
ington; and judge, how *eiy different Is tlle
view. The city is bounded; on' one side, by
the Pbtomac, a river,wider at this place than
the' Thamee,itself, some mileS below London,
between Greeiwiah and Biackwall., And then;
looking down right before. you, lies a, city
beautifully laid. but; Without a narrow street,
or court; or alley, while the streets, Containing
houses, - cross each other at right
angles—except where 'the Avenues mterseet,
there being fifteen of these, called. after ,the
States - which 'first went into the combination
of the United Provinces," so soon to be
comi the United States.
The noblest of these Avenues, and one of
the finest streets in thb world, three times the
width of the widest parts of Etioadway, (of
which the Now 'Pork provincials boast so much
and' o absurdly,) is called after our own'Key-
Stone State. It is truly very magnificent in'
many respects. Commencing at the eastern
branbh of the Potomac, this 'Peninsylianii
Avenue rare straight to the west fagade of the
Capitol. Fibin the" east front, the 'Avenhe pro;
coeds with it is interrupted by the 'Fred.
dential mansion and grounds, and • finally,
passing, these, continues auto Rock' Creek,

The Railroad Committee, in the Senate, made a

startling event have caused a flutter; bat whether
it may be regarded as s. finish to fanoifal'soliemis

The supplement to the Germento*n Passenger

The discussion on the Inaba to postpone the

supplement occasioned some feeling. The Alle
