STAUNTON, VA., March 21, 1867.
FaIEND Wifirstatt—As several of my friends
in Erie requested use to write them, and you
amongst them, I thought I would do so through
the medium of your columns.
When 1 left Erie, on the morning of the
12th ioet., the ground was covered with two
invitee of snow, which fell the night previous.
This snow extended as far as ffarri.burg,
where there wee but little, and at Baltimore
the weather was fine. I arrived in Washing
ton 10:30 a m t . of the 18th inst.—stopped at
Willard's to be in the crowd, but could not
get quarters satisfactory, and in the - evening
changed to the Metropolitan, which is a capi
tal hou.e. After attending to two other mat
ters. I dropped into the House of Repr.een
tatives on Thursday. As the members are
anxious to adjourn, a very short iteesion watt
held. They say they are only waiting the
action of the Senate on the Supplem.ntiire
Re
anretructinn bill. I met Judge Scofield who.
received me in -hie uanel smooth, courteous
manner,—here I saw Morrissey and Idutler
Well. Morrissey (who, perhep., should never
have been sent here.) is a gentlemanly looking
fellow, while Butler ha. the most despicable,
devilish looking physiognomy levergased np_
on. Claiming to he something of a judge of
human nature. I have always believed thit a
greet deal can be read in the physiogn ta4 of
men,and in the instance of Butler the Almighty
has written an intelligible hand. Crossing to
the Senate I found the Republicans wrangling
over the Supplementary , Bill. Amendment
after amendment was offered—speech after
speech was made—and - ell fair propositions
were voted down._ Here I heard Wilson pro
claim. boldly and honestly, that he would go
and - stilton the South, and that they musthave
MP9 elected of their cree.:l 7 —ttUnion men" he
etyled them—who would come into the Senate
pure and loyal, and vote with their party. 4 " - It
is shameful to Helen to their
: stump speeches
in the Senate of the United Stites. On Fri;
day evening I met Judge Marvin at the Me
tropolitan and concluded to remain over Sun
day in the city. It snowed all day in Wash
ington. On Saturday the Judge and I called
at several of the departments..and on Sunday
we attended the Church of the Epiphany. Here
we met Cal, Perrin, of Tenn., who spoke so
fluently in our Court House at the lime Gen.
Blair was in Erie.
I left Washington at 6:30 a. to., of the 18th,
via. Orange & Alexandria R R. The country
on the line of this road hes been completely
, desolated as far as Gordonsville 05 miles from
Washington. Many old picket. stations are
yet to be seen along the road, chiefly at the
bridges. The station houses . are all gone, but
few plantation residences left, the timber near
ly all cut. and no fences remain. At Burke
Station, 20 miles out, la one gond residence
and 'a few old shanties. N rat much else is to be
seen except scrubby oaks and cedars. At Ma
nassas. 33 miles from Washington, the Coun
try has ono day been better cultivated—there
are a few more residences and better ones—
juncdn of Manassas Gap- R. R. cross the
famous Bull Run. The battle ground is three
or four miles to the right, in the direction of
e Blue Ridge, which is in full view the whole
way to Gordonsville. Noteeville, like other
station's. coasiste , of a log cabin or two—there
is a fine plantation and house near hy—a very
pretty lady and little boy get aboard. .At
Warrenton Junction a few houses are seen in
the distance; the land becomes more rolling.
At R4tpshanock, 57 miles, we cross the river
—here there are a few cabins at the Station
and several good residences nearby. The soil
seems to he much better here. Culpepper, 68
miles from - Washington. has about 300- popu
lation and several neat brick and frame build
ings Here the poor nigger appears unon the
platform, looking for some agent of the Bu
reau. Rapidan is 80 miles from Washington. It
has a very good station house and good resi
dences near. the station.—the people are be
ginning to fence some. Here we cross the
Rapidan river The valley begins to grow
n'rrower. Six miles farther- on is Orange
Court How, a town something like Wesley :
till.. This county is Picking no slowly—
there are quit* a number of good farm houses
The next - Station is Gordonsville, 05 miles
from Washington. There are a few new, cheap
shanties here. At this station four trains
meet and we change cars for Richmold and
Staunton. The country nn to Charlottesville is
an excellent wheat soil, though of a reddish
day nature. Charlottesville hes.l should think.
a population of 2,000 Here is located the
Virginia University. The buildings erg fine,
and I learn it has over 6110 students in attend
mice. From here the country grows more
hilly, as we Approach the Blue Ridge.. At
Greenwood. 40 miles from Gordonsville, we
are winding round and up the mountains, on
grades of 70 to 80 feet to the mile. The scen
ery in the summer must be surpassingly grand,
exceeding that of the Penns. R. R. crossing
the Alleghenye. Far below you, and in the
midst of the mountain'', is a beautiful fertile
valley, dotted over with fine farm house.. We
pass through three 'tunnels. one seven-eighths
of a mile long ; after passing this one we be
gin to descend the mountains, with Wayne!.
born in the distance, surrounded by a beauti
ful valley, a part , of the Shenandoah. We
soon reach Waynesboro, a town of 300 or 500
population: and here we see more of the poor
"down-trodden." Mao and Rodney would run
well fee Mayor here. I . met a Mr. Davidson,
of Lexington, Vi., on the train, who gave me
much informatioi, and when we arrived at
Staunton. (4 D. to., of the 181 h.) my friend
stooped over until morning. From here a
stage runs to Lexington, 36 miles. At that
place'is Washington College, over which Gen.
Lee presides, and has over 500 students, in
cluding those of the Institute. My young
friend introduced me to several gentlemen of
Stanntan,:all of whom have treated me very
courteously and kindly ever since, end they
introduced me to °them of their citizen,.
Amongst them, and the first men I was made I
acquainted with in the place,was Gen. Echols,
a very large noble fellow, pleasing and onur--'
Leona—he has settled down to the practice of
law, and is also President of the National
Bank. The General is said tube one of their
beat lawyers, and they claim for their bar the
beet legit talent in the- State. Staunton has
a population of 4.000. It is located in a basin
surrountled by high lands, the streets - and
buildings' extending up the sides of the
hills ; on 'the surrounding rising grounds are
some fine residancee, as well as in the basin,
Hare are located the Deaf and Dumb and In

We are pleased to notice that the orditrance
prohibiting loafers from congregating on the
streets and street, corners is being enforced by
the police. It is to be hoped that their labors
in this direction will continue, 'zed not, as
heretofore, last only for a week or two. And
while they are about it, we trust they will not
fail to keep an eye particularly upon the cor

The mania for office which prevails in this
country 'vas never better illustrated than in
the number of applicants for the various posi.

least half . a dozen applications have been
made Or each of these 'positions. and the
jarring and wrangling over them has led, in
several!instances, to enmities that will prob.,

The probabilities now are that the room in
Noble's bleak, 'lntended for the poet otEce;will
be ready for its purpose by the let of April,
and if sc the office will be removed to its new

livery will also commence on the let, when the
city will be divided into districts, and a carri

out charge.' This regulation will be a great
convenience to those who resiile at some dis
tance from the.office, or do not have sufficient
mail to require frequent visits thereto.
The U. 8. Collector of internal Revenue for
this district bas seized upon the Kalvalage,
rues', Koehler and Jacobi breweries, in our
city, for alleged violations of the laws, in not
making proper return,. They have each been
placed in charge of a person representing the
Government, and meantime an effort is being
made to have the.diffioulty settled by the own
ers paying the amount of revenue in arrears,
which, it is said, will require from twelve to
@Real thousand dollar,. The proprietors of
the brewerieti put in the plea that they did
not understand the law and. were not guilty
of an intentional violation of its provisions.
The Manehe.ter paper mill (near Swan Sta.

two Woes of the Observer, and part of the

not been entirely satisfactory, we 'are deter

we once get to thoroughly noderetand the
mole of working the paper, it will be found

It will be recollected that, 'owe time age,
Wnt. Walker, former landlord of Brown's Ho-
Leone arrested at the instance of Messrs.
Loomis, Follansbee end others, charged with
obtaining money : froth them by fraudulent
means The cases were settled in some way,
with neversi.if not all the parties, end we have
heard nothing of it Mom In retaliation,Mr..
Waiter has instituted a suit againet Messrs.
A. T Loomis and Joshua Follansbee, charging
them with having unlawfully opened a letter
directed to his address. The case was tried
before 11. 8. Commissioner F. F. Marshall, on
Monday, John H.lralker appearing on the
put of Mr. Loomis, and Elijah Babbitt on that
of Mr. Follansbee. The
..witneeses examined
were Messrs. Wm. Walker, Sidney Kellogg-,
Min McCloskey, Henry Butterfield, and M.
B. Whitney, from whose testimony it appears
that an unopened letter, addressed to Mr.
Walker, did arrive at the hotel from New
York ; that Loomis and Follansbee read it, al
leging that Walker was playing a trick upon
them, and calling in McCloskey to *ikons
what they did ; and that they nfterwuds took
a copy of the letter and returned the original
to Walker's-box. The Commissioner post.
poned a deaision,upon the cue until Saturday
next, and held the parties to bail in the sum
of $4.000 each, to appear at that time. The
charge is more serious than most persons.
would imagine, a heavy puslty being attached .
to it by law; and unless .the circumstance'
under which the letter wu read are consid.
ered suffielent justification for the deed, the

- The Dispatch, a few days age, published - a
story to the effect that an organized band of
flve hundred Feniano exiefed in the city, ready
to march at short notice wherevr their lead
ers required them. Our--cptemporary hasA'
either been egregiously impelupon or con
coated the-statement to create a. eensation.
We have inquired of a - number of our Irish
citizens. who would be most likely to know
the facts, and they, one and all, esy no such
organisation is In existence. On the contra
rY,..;the Fenian movement, - has always been
looked upon with suspicion: by the Irish peo
'pie of Erie, and the endeavor to start a utile
ly here wee so poorly encouraged that it wee
long ago given up in despair. The Irishmen
of our city stand preparedlo lend anj efforts
within their power to any measures that will
be likely to liberate their native land, but - they
have too much good sense to throw away their
lieu and means upon a fool-hardy enterprise,
-inch as making war upon England when she
is completely at peace with the rest of the
world. They realize that the time to strike is
when that conntry_becomes involved in an
other coatlice with the United States, and
should' that, period ever arrive, we predict that
there are not, many Irishmen in Erie who will
not have a hand in the struggle..
We regret to learn that a movement is 'on
foot among a certain portion of the Republi
cans to contest the right of E. Camphausen,
seq., to hold the office of Justice of the Peace
for the West Ward, which he 111414.1 d for near
ly five yel l " .ond to which be was re-elected
at the late election, over James Skinner, EN.
The grouiid on which it is based consists in
the fact that Mr. C. is a resident of South
Erie, and the claim is set up that a person liv
ing outside of a district cannot be lawfully
elected to fill an office within it. We fell as
mired that nothing less than personal or party
malignity could have started such a movement.
Mr. Camphausen has lived where he now does
during the whole, or nearly the whole, period
in which be has held the office, and no person,
ptevions to the late contest, thought of deny
ing his right to serve in the capacity of Jus
tice. The question wait first broached during
the municipal campaign, and was strongly
urged as an argument against Justice Camp
bausen's re-election, but with so little effect
that, although an uncompromising Democrat,
he received a considerable majority in the two
strongest Republican distriMs in the city. He
Is admitted on all hands tolhe one of tho beat
legal officers we have ever had, and received
the nearly unanimous support of the members
of the bar who reside in the Ward.

ample. No ene can justify himself for doing
wrong by saying that somebody else did the
same thing.
The Radical party is getting badly demor
alized in all the counties of this section. In
this county the war„of the factions has been
kept up for a number of years; in Crawford,
last year, the fend between Messrs. Pettis and
Finney came nigh splitting The party in twain;
and now in Warren, a vigorous fight has
sprung up between Col. Allen, member of the
Legislature, and the Tidioute Journal, which
promises to be of the most sanguinary char
acter. Allen °beiges the Journal with mis.
representing facto ; the Journal tilts back by
calling Allen a liar, and endeavoring to prove
it in a three column article. Pietols and cof
fee for - two are daily expected.
In . our notice, laet week, of the election in
South Erie, we unwittingly made a statement
that might lead to erroneous impressions as to
the extent of the debt of that prosperous heir
ough. We learn from a gentleman whose re
liability Is unquestionable that the entire debt
is lees than $4 0001 sum, which, comparing
it with that of the tfity, would not be one
fourth ac large in proportion to the popula
tion. It Is hardly n y to add that we
had no intention of red••cting upon the finan
cial management of the borough officers.or of
conveying on impression whit& might tend to
retard the prosperity of our progressive little
neighbor South of the railroad.
We are gratified to announce the re-electioa
of Henry rail, Esq., as Justice of the Peace
in Qirard borough. Mr. B. a sound Demo
crat. and the fact of Me re-election in a Re
publican borough, is evidence enough of his
qualifications es an officer Hltioimonent was
Mr C. L. Randall, the lately removed post.

feW years - ago, when she pretended to be
Democrat, received a Dernecratio nomination
for a county Office, and afterwards flung it
hack into the face of the party, at the Vo‘x
ing of•some of his Radical friends, is well re

Da. LISTON, Albany, N. Y —Sir—l think it
my duty not only to you but to the communi
ty at large, to acquaint you with the happy
result of your treatment upon My person. I
suffered for over thirteen years with a die

derful success in treating diseases of the Eye
and Ear, I concluded to avail myself of your
valuable services, so in Jane, 1866, while on
one of your visits to. Binghamton, N. Y., I
called and placed myself under your treatment,
and in a short time was entirely cured. It is
now fifteen months since my ears ceased to
discharge. Thanking you' for the great good
which I received from your treatment, I re
main, Yours, very respectfully,
ARTHUR L. SCOTT.
We would again remind 111 who are afflicted
with any disease of the ear, eye, throat, catarrh
or Chronic Diseases of whatillter form, that
