CORRESPOifDESCE
Washington, D. C., Feb. 24, 1864.
Mr. Editor —l have to-day listened to a
spe<*b which T think no less an honor to
the orator than to human nature. In
these dark hours of radical cant and ex
ecutive tyranny, it is something to see a
man stand forth fearless of both, and dis
course wisely, eloquently, and truthful
ly of the troubles of the country. This
rare spectacle I have, however, enjoyed
in hearing in the Htui.se of Representa
tives, one of Pennsylvania’s truest and
noblest sons, the Hon. .Tno. L. Dawson.
1 shall not attempt to give a synopsis of
this admirable speecli. Suffice it to say
that Mr. Dawson boldly ignored all the
new-fangled theories of the day, and dis
cussed the subject from the stand point
of our national traditions, and with the
unerring lights of the constitution and
contemporaneous history. He has thus
thrown into strong relief a class of facts
of the first importance to be kept in
mind by any one who aspires to the
character of the true statesman, yet
which it is but too common, in the civil
turmoils which involve the country,
recklessly to disregard. As a Democrat,
1 felt obliged to Mr. Dawson for so ably ■
vindicating the true principles of democ
racy. As a Pennsylvanian I felt proud
of him.
Mr. D. has not often claimed the at
tention of the House the present session,
but when he does so, no one can fail to
remark tin- deference and attention with
which lie is listened to. • This was illus
trated hv the m inner in which were re
ceived si.in.- djiy" -inec, his remarks
upon his proposition for paying - the sol
diers of the Army and Navy in gold or its
equivalent. The Government organ
here did not omit the occasion to in
dulge in some ungenerous fling towards
Mr. Dawson, but it was e\ident to the
most casual reader th.it they furnished
no answer to lbs argument.
If you are now having as pleasant
weather as that which the citizens of
tliis Capitol have been for sometime en
joying. I hope you have no cause to
complain on that score. We have, in
cited. had a few days of piercing - cold,
but the dryness of the season has been
remarkable Washington society, too,
has been intent upon it? enjoyment to
the utmost. The season of Lent has
commenced, hut ii< inlluencc is but littb
peiceptible here. This spirit has even
communicated itself to the army, and
several hundred ladies, among - whom
I hear were a number of the fair daugh
i is of Pemba, —went down e>, to
i.'tend the ball of the 22d. viv. n by the
2d Army Corps.
Notwithstanding this festive tendency,
which usually characterizes Washing
ton winters, to one acquainted with the
Capitol in the old days of peace and
harmony, there is much that is wanting
to a satisfactory picture. The number
-of mutilated specimens of humanity
which constantly meet the pedestrian,
awaken only, emotion.-of sympathy or
horror. Formerly the cripples were
only so by the unhappy violation of
nature or accident. Now thev are the
miserable victims oi deliberate arrange
ment. Alas ! when shall this groaning
and distressed land, witness the return
of the halcyon days which it knew be
fore the war. Ma rchand.

Large Assortment of Pianos.—
The large assortme t of pianos now on
hand at Mr. Mellor's ware-rooms is so
large and varied that we think it but an
act of justice to call attention to the fact.
Commencing at the low-priced and
strongly made instruments of Emerson,
Guilet and Miller, Gibson & Co., we go
through intermediate styles of finish,
size and tone of (’bickering, Hazleton ami
Jardine’s ninke until we reach a superb
“grand” of Cliickcring’s make. This
charming instrument is alone worthy of
a visitto Mr. Mellor’s rooms. Tlieiieep
resonant tones in the bass, and the spark
ling brilliancy of the treble are marve
lous. The style of furniture is ouen an
entirely new pattern,( lmstc and elegant.
All tastes in recant to tones, appearance
and price can there be suited in a
piano; powerful and sweet toned instru
ments, handsomely carved and neat
plain oneßand prices ranging from $250
to $B5O. Wo commend Mr. Mellor's as
sortment to iho attention of the public,
and especially to those persons In search
"of a good instrument.
General Sherman’s Expedition.
A9*there are many Pittsburghers in the
army under Gen. Sherman, whose move
ments just now is the theme of general
conversation and speculation, we give
t.he following paragraph from the New
York Herald' .< cot respondent, who ac
companies the expedition :
"There i* not a tent ’.i the inluf command, not
even Jot the ojfurr* We coruwajuently moveraj*-
idly. Headquarters. arc covered only'by the can
opy of heaven, and an I u rite these" few lines ol
to-day's operations. I look around me and see
of the staff already snugly coiled up under
their blankets, with a long line of feet facing a
camp-fire of similar length. Fortunately the
weather has been aH tliat could be wished, and.
if it continues, this expedition will undoubtedly
be one of the most successful and glorious of this
winter * campaign
From the above it would seem that
thus far all lias gone well, and
in a few days to iir.tr of decisive re*ults
from that quarter.
