Wise, Exq , Com- missioner of the western section of the City Canal, addressed to the City Councils through one of its members, and which on being read in the Beard of Aldermen, was referred to the committee ap- pointed to attend to the interests of the city before Congress, with instructions to bring the snbject before the committees of Congress on Pablic Buildings and Grounds, contain some suggestive facts. Our epinion heretofore ex- Pressed, is that the Canal ixa nuisance, which must sooner of later compel its berg filled up or fevered over, bat as long ax it exists there can he no doubt of the propriety of having it tho- Tougbly dredged. We suppose not one in a hundred of the citizensof Washington are aware tbat the Milth of the sewers emptied into the canal does net pass for the most Part into the river, but ts Washed packwards and forwards along the tine of the canal by the fides, and is thes con- Unually stirred and shaken up for the benefit of the public nostril. We believe that Commis- sioner Wise has made some experiments, show- ing that light articles of the same density as the water, and therefore traveling with it. thrown junio the canal, at say Four-and-a-balf street bridge, never pass into the river, but are cangbt by the return tide in the neighborhood of Four- teenth street bridge, and brouyht back to their starting place. Tois is rather a startling fact taken inte connection with tue kaowledge thit upon the introduction of Aqueduct water. the canal is to be made the receptacle of the filth of all the privies and sink« of the city. Should Congress make an appropriation for grading and filling up the low gronnds south of the Capgjol, the deposites dredged from (he canal could used advant: ously for such filling. Wasnixeton, Jan 30, 1859 Mr. J. F. Brown, of Board of Alderinen : Sta: As chairman of the committee on drain- age and sewerage, I bez leave to address you with respect to the amount of sediment that finds i's way into the Washington City Canal from the sewers and drains of Washington.

He was very anxious to obtain some employment, and stated to Mr C. Bohn, book and print seller, that he had come to the District with letters of recom- mendation to a merchant in Georgetown, of whom he had expected to obtain a situation as clerk; but that on Mid? tr hy him had found his expected clerkship flied by another party. He bad no money, and appeared to be very much distressed at bis anpleasant situation. Mr. Bobn, iking bis appearance, gave him money to pur- chase a night's lodging, and requested him to call on him in the morning, promising to do something for him. The next morning the young min called. and after some further conversation with bim Mr. Bobn gave him money to purchase a clean shirt, and promised bim work. The young stranger ap to feel very grateful for this kinduess, and seemed anxious to go to work soon as possible. Accordingly, Mr. Bobn ve bim a specimen copy of a work which be had in hand shortly to published, and sent him out to canvass. In two or thre days be had obtained some twenty-five sub- scribers; aad in the meantime, Mr. Bobn, to encourage his industry, paid him some six cr seven dollars on account. A few morninzs since, he entered Mr Bobn’s store, on Pennsylvania avenue, in the absence of the proprietor, and fobtained of the young mn in charge a dozen copies of the new work just from the press for delivery to the subscribers Since that time, he bas not seen fit to return to account for his stewardship, though Mr. Bohn has ascertained that he delivered the copies to the subscribers and received the money for them, which money he probably appropriated towards his traveling expenses. Mr. Bohn bas since learned that this young scamp, before leaving the city, exhibited his :1'- gotten cash tothe barkeeper of the hotel where he boarded, and boasted that it was his regular trade ta go about from ene city to another and oo bis swindling calling. ‘He also told the ¥ wie 2 tbat he had pares the same game suc- c-ssfully in New York, biladelphia and Baiti- more, and that he was now going probably to Richmond to try it on there. Athis boarding house he exemplified his adroitness at swindling by leaving his board bill unpaid, and by carry- ing off a valuable knife which he bad sold to the barkeeper and received pay for. Our neighbor- ing cities would do well to keep asharp look out for Mr. Magnus Witherker, shonld he do any of themthe honor to givethem a call. Doubt- ies if he bas gone to Ricbmond, he has laid his plans to make a good thrifty business capital out of bis obsequious manner and seedy coat. Wo EsTasLisHeD Cugar OMNIBUSES IN Wasutncton ?—By the debate in the Councils, at their last meeting, given in yesterday’s Star, it will be seen that some of the members did Mr. Venderwerken great injustice, in representing tat to others than himself was due the credit of establi cheap and comfortabie omnibuses oscd that every man, woman and child in Washington knew that, to the energy, perseverance, and business-like capabilities of man—Gilbert Vanderwerken—they are in- debt d for the cheap yet most comfortable facill- ties of conveyance now enjoyed by them. The history of omnibus lines in this city isin brief as follows: In November, 1519, Mr. Vanderwerken, asso- ciated with Newell & Russel, established the lire of omnibuses About this time, Mr. Thos. Fitnam purchased two coaches from Vander- werken, and ran in competition for two or three mouths, when he sold his stock and two coaches to Vanderwerken. in February, 1550, Mr. Vanderwerken par- chased the interest of Messrs. Newell & Russell, and continaed on his own aecount. In March. 1550, Reeside took charge for Vanderwerken and afterward was associated with him for a time In December, 1950, Mr. Vacderwerken moved to the District to look after bis own interests.and in October, 1851, Reeside withdrew and Vander- werken bas continued the business until ncw on his own account. Sinee Mr V; erwerken started the line, vari- shave been started in competition, but have been withdrawn. This is the plain record case, and shows sutticiently to whom sdae " Penaw !-The locatizer of the Richmond En- quirer alludes te a matter which has caused some scandal lately in the fashionable world of Rich- mond and Washington. Not long sincea very prepossessing young lady was escorted hither, under an assumed name, from Washington city An affrire d'amour with a distinguished polit - cian in that capital, led to a responsibility that both parties thought had better be removed from Washington The fair one came bither, and soon a bright Ittle baby laid a claim upon Rich- mond as its birth-place, but had an extra claim claim on Washington for its papa. A contiden tial servant, well known as * Dick Judab,”? was sent on by the parent to atend to the lady and child. The latter was nabbed by the Police, on a charge of “ going at large,”? but let off on Tues- day on showing his right to do so.

In a Dartinlariz’ trickdly notice of Lanman’s “Dictionary of Congress,”? (a book which every body seems to be talking about, but which I have been unable to purchase,) pub- lished in the “States”? newspaper, it is asserted, on the authority of Lanman, that the Hon. Jobn 4 Dawson is dead, while the Editor remarks that he isnot. The testimony of Messrs. Heiss & Pryor cannot be doubted, and yet the assertion quoted from the Dictionary seems to be corrobe- rated by the subjoined notice which I find in a volume of 432 pages, published in Boston by Hon. Nathan Croxby, and entitled ‘ Annual Obituary Notices of Eminent Persons, who died in the U.S. in 1857.” “Dawson, Hor. John L. Brownsville, Pa., March 10, 1857; from 1851 to 1855, representative in Congress from Pennsylvania. It is said, he was one of the victims of the National Hotel dis- ease, and that twenty-seven persons died of that complaint, and that many other persons remain in astate of decrepitude.”? Now, the question is, is Mr. Dawson dead or only ina ‘state of decrepitude ?”” ‘The Boston devoted merely to members of Congress. I beg you tell me, is the truth? Were there two Dawsons in Congress bearing the same name? and if so, which of the two was an ‘eminent person?” Ifthe friends of the ‘States’? Daw- son ‘made believe’? that he was dead for the Purpose of obtaining a ‘ first rate’? notice, they nade a great mistake in not posting up Mr. Cros- by; and if a manof genius be might have been treated as was the good nuime of Albert Pike,a few weeks ago, when the telegraph told a false- hood about his death. With revard to the friendsbip which Mr. Heiss seems to entertain for Mr Lanman, [ have noth- ing to say, only that it is evidently allied to that which he entertains for nine-tenths of the baman family; and the affection of the associate editor, or “critic of the States,” has a habit of oozing out after the same manner. But if you would ike to witness the appearance of a delicate sting, when nestled Ia the words of “ injured inno- cence,” I invite you to read a certain little “card” which has been circulated about town. In the meantime, tell me, if you can, “is Dawson dead? As all the gentlemen who figure in Lan- man’s Dictionary are supposed to be candidates for the Presidency, it is impo:tant to know whether they are dead or alive. Yours truly, Notes ax QueRins.
