the Union. ' 12 .,'':.''
The ordeal of -war tins tried the strength of
our Government. Its fire has purified the
nation. The defence ot the natiou's life has
demonstrated who ""were its friend?. The
principles -vindicated in the field must be
preserved, in the councils of the nation.' The
arch enemy of freedom must be struck or.ee
more. All the friends of our Government,

t'orritjwndince cf The Aihghanian .-
A person who visits Yasliinglou frcuc-rally-
makes it a poiut" to cxuutiue tlte
National Capitol Ru'tlding. This imposing
structure tloes rot !a:l t: impress the be
holder with surprise and vcnler, and
after perambulating its numerous balls
and corridor? for hours, he ollcn goc- away
with but an imperfect knowledge of its
vastnes?, grandeur and magnificence.
He visits the Senate Chamber, and from
the fpacious galleries takes a view of the
distinguished men there assembled, notes
the gravity and becoming dignity which
characterize the American Senate, hears
pcrndventure, some honorable Senator's
speech, and goes away, if 1 e be an Ameri
can citizen, with the satisfactory conclu
sion, that here at least, i? an august body
which truly represents American ideas,
aud the grave and patriotic purposes of
the American people. Leaving the Sen
ale Chamber, he strolls through the ad
joining rooms, substantially, though not
gaudily furnished, where the Senate clerks
and attacJies cf the Set-ate congregate to
perforin the duties assigned them, takes a
Ipuk at the President's room, the Vice
President's room, the lleception room, the
Postoffice, and then moves on towards the
Rotunda. On hia way Ire will be likely
to pause and probably step into the old
Senate Chamber, near the gathering place
of the U. S.. Supreme Court,, where he
will behold a number of grave and digni
fied: gentlemen in gowns, known as Jus
tices of the Supreme Court of the United
States. , Hero the great questions of Con
rtitutional and public law are discussed
and decided. Moving on from the Court
room, the visitor will pass through what
is called" tho Pit, ("cot. a very interesting
spot,) to the llotunda,'a spacious gallery of
paiutings, crowned above by a .series, of
historical groupings in fresco, all of which
in a future number (if time will permit)
we will try and describe.' The Rotunda
is a feature in , itself, and the following
description of its vastness may not be un
interesting to the readers of The Allcgha
nian. ' The height of the deme from the
base line of the cast front is 237 feet and
6 7-1G inches; height ot the dome from
the top of the balustrade, 217 feet and
11 7-1G inches: height of the figure,
Goddess of Liberty, crowning the dome,
PJ i. feet 4 inches. The weight' rf this
figure U 14,860 pounds. Greatest diinen
Kion of the baeo of this dome, J"5 feet
5 inches; greatest dimension of tho tlcm
proper, 1-4 feet 9 inches ; dimension
of tie Ilctunda, to feet . d inches;
height from the fioor of the RotuTida to
the top of the canopy, ISO feet 3 inches.
This'is but a poor account of it upon pa
per; to be fully appreciated, It mu?t be
seen. . . :
After the visitor has taken a view of
the pictures in the Rotunda, and ascended
the winding ftair-casc to the top of 'the
dome and taken a look at Washington
and the surroundings, iu all thoir uia&iiiii
oence, he will naturally move on to the
old hall of .the House cf Representatives,
and notice by the way the statues there
gathered, and possibly, xafl to mind seme
of -the distinguished men who enact laws
for the government pf the country. The
ext place of interest which will be likely
o Attract the attention v( the visiter will
be' the House of IU prefer Stive's ; and
,in cocve future number we wilt attempt
seme description of this pplcndiJ Uall,
and also note feme of the ka-lirg juem
bcra cf the Thirty-ninth .Cor'gre'ss. Jt
remains now that we -describe the extent
of the CapitoUs it stands. WhoU' extent
of buildino-, 751' feet 4 inched length
of the old Capitol, 352 feci 4 inches;
width of. the wings, 142 feet S inches;
depth of wings, 324 feet ; area of grounds
actually covered, 153,112 rnuare feet, or
more than three and a-half acres. . Height
of ' the base line of the entire building
Above tide water, 87 feet C inches. The
building complete will challenge tLe ad
miration of the world, aud travelers from
Europe who visit it, fay, that there is no
public building of the kind in tho old
world which is comparable to it.
Tlie President's Views.
Two different delegations have, called
upon.President'J ohnson lately, to1 obtain
ah' expression of his views upon; certain
important points. The first of these was
a delegation of negrces, headed by Fred
erick Douglass acdGeorgo T. Downing.
They were kindly received by the Presi
dent. Mr. Downing, on behalf of the'
delegation, stated the object o tbeir visit
tj be to solicit Executive" assistance toward
securing the enfranchisement of the black
race throughout the country. The Presi
dent improved tho occasion to give his
views fully- on the vexed question., he
substance of his remarks may be stated to
be. that he is now, and ever ha3 been, a
true friend of the black man, still, believ
ing, as lrc dec, that to enfranchise him
now would lead to a war of races ia trie
South, he cannct give his consent to the
proposed measure. The whole question,
he said, must be submitted to the people
for arbitrament. The general tenor cf
his .remarks. ha& loft, the impression that
he has it in contemplation to veto the
bill which has passed the House and is
now pending. ia the Senate, extending
suffrage to the colored people of the Dis
trict of Columbia. Such a course of ac
tion would probably result in an open
rupture between Congress ami the Exec
utive, and so endanger the triumph of all
measures essential to the future peace and
safety cf a loyal people, who have just
rescued the government from destruction
through appalling sacrifice. .
The other delegation consisted of a
committee from the Senate aud thcllcuse
of Delegates of Virginia, who bore a reso
lution to the President representing that
Virginia accepted the issue, of the 'war,
recognizing the Government of the Uni
ted States, would stand by the Union, and
regarded Slavery as overthrown constitu
tionally. They oprt-l in general terms
the conferring of the elective franchise
upon ' tho freedmcn, - expressing at the
same time the kindest feeling for them.
The President's reply was chiefly .taken
up with reiterating the. doctrine' he had
so often expressed, that States could cot
secede from the Union, had not success
fully seceded, and were still in the
Union. In reference to representation
from the Soulh in Congress, .- he "made,
loyalty a condition, and intimated that if.
the -South-elected loyal men, they would
be received. 'He referred to extremists
in the North as well as in the South and
conveyed the idea that . the integrity . of
tho Union must be, sustained against
them. . The address was ia good-' taste,
and couched at times in 'eloquent terms.
Coolness!
In looking over the published report of
the proceedings of the Republican Coun
ty Committee of Indiana county, at their
meeting held on the 12th instant, we find
the following paragraph : o
Resolved, That Indiana County concurs in
the appointment of Dr. It. S. Hunt, of Jeffer
son County, as Senatorial Delegate from this
Senatorial-District to the. Utiion State Con
vention meet at Harrioburg, on the 7th -of
March, 186G. .
In other wordy, concerning the appoint
ment of a Senatorial delegate, Indiana
couuty, laboring in the interest of Jeffer
son county, proposes (if we interpret the
meaning of the resolution aright) to total
ly ignore Cambria county, and to send a
man to the State Convention in whose
choice we shall' have neither voice nor
v0c a rxian who shall not have been em
powered to represent the political senti
ment of the district by the only competent
authority which i'n the present order cf
things can exist, a Senatorial' Conference,
but rcaoh-ed into a delegate by a brace of
County Committees !. -; .
We protest against this way of doing
business.' It is arbitrary, illegal, unjust;
and we are not used to it here. Cambria
county comprises a third part of this Sena
torial district, and is entitled to at least a
hearing in any matter affecting, the inter
ests of the whole district. If a delegate
is to be sent to the State Convention, we
have a right to vote for or against that
delegate; it it is to be declared that any
particular roan is the choice of tho dis
trict for Governor, we have a right and
possess a desire to indicate our preference
in that direction ; if any other business
is to be transacted for or in behalf of the
district, 'wo have a right and feel it our
duty to perform our share of it: These,
Ve contend, arc our natural, inalienable
rights,'-nnd we insist on exercising them.
To prevent ua from so exercising-these
rights, would be to overslaugh Cambria
county, which is a course cf action we do
not believe our pister counties would care
to attempt. '
The , only legal mcihod . of appointing
a delegate to the, Statu Conventiou, who
will be indeed an exponent of the popular
sentiment of his constituents, is through
the medium of a Conference representing
I the tchole district. A delf gate appointed
in nny other way is a fpurious one, and we
repudiate him.

' ' Harrisburg,' Feb. 19, 18G6.'
To the E&iior of The'lAUeghanian :
- I have been unwell. for fome days-rcasti
and coDsequerltlynot able to attend to the
proceedings of-.the Legislature, or any
thing elsa.-But.I thinknot,much Jiaa
been lost to you or your readers by : this
misfortune of mine, as but little-of any
public consequence, and nothing pi-? a
locaL character to interest you, has transr
pired since my last; and now that the
Legislature has adjourned over to the
27th, we need r;ot look for legislation of
any kind, public cr private, before the
ls.t of March, when the real, business of
the session will probably commence, and
there 'must be much industry displayed
on the part of the two Houses if they ex
pect to get through by the 29th of March,
the. day fixed upon for., the final adjourn
menti. However, we do not look for the
accomplishment of this task. It is too
laborious to be epdured by the - physical
.constitutions of the honorable :iriembers,
and so public opinion hereabouts assigns
the latter, end, or at tho earliest the mid
dle of April as the more probable time of
final adjournment. Whilst upon "this
subject, I may as well express the opinion,
which is very generally entertained by
those who watch the course of legislation,
that the Legislature is falling into a very
bad practice cf rushing bills through
without proper consideration. The fact
is that such a pile of private business is
accumulating upon , their hands that it
cannot be disposed of in the ordinary
course of legislation in less lime than a
six months session would give them ; and
as they are not1 inclined to sit so lone,
and as, also, the good people,' their con
stituents, might grumble at such an' enor
mous consumption of time without any
corresponding benefit, they have adopted
the very objectionable course of dispens
ing with the rules, postponing the regular
order of the. day, and rushing certain
bills through with lightning speed, some
times against the protestations of one
third -of the members, who have not only
not read them, but' actually never heard
of them 'before the instant .when they
came up for consideration. In this way
occurs much pernicious legislation, and it
is the sentiment of all reflecting, minds
that the' custom (of late an every day one)
would be u: more honored in the breach
thau in the observance.". You may form
some conception of the amount of business
before the. Legislature when I tell you
that during' a siugle session of three
hours, bne hundred. and sixty-three bills
were read in place and reported from the.
different standing committees.
Since my last, one bill of great public
importance has passed both. '"Houses -I
allude to the bill' amending the revenue !
laws of the commonwealth. This bill re
peals the tax on real estate, and imposes, I
among other taxes, three-fourths of one
per centum upon the 4gros3 receipts of
every railroad, canal and. transportation
company in. the State, in addition tOithe
taxes now provided by law ; and one per
centum upon the par value of the stock
held by each individual. .stockholder in
any bank, State or Nalioual, in the com
monwealth the three-fourths of one per
centum tax on railroad?, &c, to be pledged
for the redemption of the military loan
created under the act of May 15, 1SG1.
This, you will perceive, -change? entirely
the revenue laws of the commonwealth,
and is, indeed, an act of the very highest
importance. .'.'.,' ' '. ' . '
.In politics we-have nothing specially
interesting. There has. been much quiet
talk among Republicans in 'reference to
the" views recently put forth' by President
Johnson, m his interviews wnu the Fred.
Douglass, committee the ..Montana com
mittee, and the i delegation from the Vir
ginia legislature, in which he defined
pretiy clearly, hia reconstruction policy
and his idea of the 6tatu3 of the freed
men. There is, of course, some .diversity
of opinion on the subject, but, undoubt
edly, the majority of Republicans incline
to favor the policy indicated by Congress
rather thau that foreshadowed by the
President. So far as the Republican
members of the Legislature are concern
ed, I think there will be a decided ex
pression of opinion on- the question before
the close of tho session. '
In reference to the gubernatorial ques
tion, the star of Gen. Geary1 seams yet to
be in the ascendant ; though some intelli
gent politicians are of opinion that he is
not yet out of the woods,, and will . be
'closely pressed if not passed in the race
by Moorehead. Time will settle' the
question, satisfactorily, " I. trust, . to the
whole party. The most astute demosrat
ic politicians' with whom. I converse, in
cline to tho opiuiou that Hon. Asa Packer
will be the nominee of tho 5th of March
Convention. : I think, myself, from all I
can learn, that the fight in the. Conven
tion will eventually be between Cass and
Packer. Clymer will .probably :be 'drop
ped after a lew .'ballot. ; j
Yours, Truly.
Important Notice to Taxpayers.
Collector. Royer has: issued tbe follow
ing notice, b'y which it wilP-loe 'seen that
the ten per cent, penalty for neglecting
to pay' the - tax within' ten days from the
20th of each - month wiir hereafter be
rigidly enforced. For example, all taxes
assessed forJanuary must be' paid 'within
ten days after the 20th of February, or ten
per cent, penalty will be added and collect
ed. Here is tho notice : ' ":
, .. .. ...Johnstown, Jan. 17, 18GG.'
. Important Notice to Taxpayers.
--Taxes due under the United States Reve
nue. Law are reepuircd to be paid within
ten days from the twentieth day of each
month.- . Taxes assessed' for a particular
month ' must - be paid within ten days
after the twentieth day of the subsequent
month.
To save taxpayers from trouble and ex
pense, I call their attention to the follow
ing extract from Instructions to Collec
tors, issued by the Commissioners of In
ternal Revenue, under date of January 1,
1SGG: : ; ' -, ' ""
: " For failure to pay within -the" pre
scribed' time,5 the taxpayer is liable to a
penalty of ten per centum on the, tax.
This penalty must le collected in all c ises
when a taxpayer has become liable there
to, as the Collector' has no discretion in the
matter; but in order to'avoid all occa
sions for dissatisfaction, (Hectors are ad
vised to issue notices to all persons assess
ed, immediately upon tho receipt of the
list, informing them of their liability un
der the law, and ' Form 17 ' has been pre
pared for this purpose. It must be dis
tinctly understood, however, that as this
notice is not required by the terms cf the
law, but is entirely gratuitous on the. part
of revenue officers, no person can claim
exemption from the penalty by virtue of
the non-receipt of the notice."
After the expiration of the ten day?,
the Collector must proceed to collect the
tax, with the penalty and cost?, by dis
traint. Therefore, a strict ' compliance
with' the law will save Collectors from the
performance cf an unpleasant but impera
tive duty, and taxpayers from the payment
and' penalties and heavy costs.

The Restoration of Tennessee.
The - Sub-Committee on Reconstruction,
who have been engaged for some time
taking testimony and inquiring into the
condition of affai-H in Tennessee, have
submitted their repOrt to the committee
of fifteen. The committee have had the
matter under consideration, and on hriday
the question of making Tennessee an ex
ception, was' discussed at considerable
length.' It is said that a majority cf the
Committee are willing to admit Tennes
see into the Union as a State if her Con
stitution is reprblican in form and a
proper application is made to that end.
It is .aid thai a portion of her delegation
is willing to adopt that principle and ask
for admission. This, however, is in di
rect opposition to the avowed policy of
the President, who maintains '-that Ten
nessee and : the : other Southern States
were never cut of the Union. A majori
ty of the Committee are unalterably op
posed" to adopt any other course, and are
willing to, and probably will, adopt it.
Stop Talking Treason- General
Grant has issued the following eloquent
circular letter to commanders of military
departments :
" You will pleaso send to these head
nuarters as scon a? practicable, and from
time to time thereafter, such copies of!
newspapers published in your department
as contain sentiments of disloyalty and
hostility to the Government in .any of its
beeches, and state whether such paper
is habitual in its utterance of such senti
ments. The persistent publication of ar
ticles calculated to keep up a hostility of
feeling between the people of the differ
ent sections of the , country cannot .be
tolerated. This information is called for
with a view to their; suppression, which
will bo done from theso headquarters
only." : . '
