A PUBLIC PARK Editor Star: During the past sessions of Uon-, gress, while the su’ eal aPablic Park wasto frequently alluded to, it seems really strange that due importance should fot have been at tached to the beautiful park'we have, almost ready atour hands—the «Public Mall.” Itcov- ers aspace thatextends from the square east of the Uspitol, directly weat to 17th street, vary- ing in width from 200 to 500 yards. Wereit pro- Posed to purchase this large tract of ground, in the very midst of our city, we might jastly pause at the enormous expense it would in. cur, but when we reflect that it is already the property of the United States, and especially Teserved for the use of the public, and the com- paratively trifling appropriation it would re- quire to \hrow the whole of these reservations (including President's grounds and Lafayette Square) mto one continuous public park, it seems really surprising that they should be left in thelr present unmteresting condition. To advocate the advantages of such a park to our city would be an annecessary task to any reasonable being, yet while suggestions are made tor the purchase of property adjacent to our city, and difficult of access, our people seem blind to the advantages of these public reservations for park purposes, which are in our very midst. At present the majority of these are but big public squares, surreunded by high paling fences, and generally as unin- teresting a8 so many acres of stubble. We will search in vain for a tract of ground (that we are likely to obiain) that has so many advantages as the public spaces indicated, for & public park. This tract of ground is acces- sible by at most @ ten minutes walk from almost any part of our city. It runs parallel to Penn- sylvania avenue through its entire length, and bemg immediately adjacent thereto, it would not only supply s delightfal retreat, but could be made to farnish a magnificent highway for those passing to and froin our city who have business in the departments, and who wish to escape the alternating mud and dust of Penn- sylvania avenue. While on this subject I will alinde to one that iramediately bears upon it, and which has been heretofore discussed. 1 refer to the plan for re- claiming the low grounds adjoining the Mon- tment Square and near the little island at the mouth of the canal. By filling up these low grounds some fifteen acres of land could be made for the Government, and the appearance of the river front at that part of the city great- ly improved. Viewing this last projected im- provement in connection with the conversion of the public mall into a park, its importance will be perceived if we imagine the improve- ment made, a bridge thrown across the canal at Sixteenth street, and direct communication thus afforded between the avenue, President's House and Departments, and the objects of public interest in the southern part of our city. This connection would not be as now, through dusty thoroughfares, but through @ beautiful and interesting public park. It is not thought that these improvements are atall in conflict with the plan of the ta- | mented Downing, but rather that they are in | support of his plan; but his ideas seem to have been consigned te tue “tomb of the Ospulets,”” | and the mali remains an unsightly barren waste, only intersected by the ordinary streets and a by-path here and there for predestrians. It is only my purpose to suggest the general idea of speedily converting the mall and adj1- centgrounds into 1 Public Park, and leave the | details of carrying it into execution tosuch en- gineers as may be charged with it. Were the Suggestions not premature I might say that the present unsigntly fences could be removed, the northern and ‘southern border of the grounds enclosed by a neat low iron railing, orvamental entrances made where the street intersect the mall, and the most frequented thoroughfares well- paved and heavy draughts cenfined to those thus payea. Again it would vary ihe monotony of straight streets and square corners to have some of the ronds in- tersecting the mall and connecting the two portions of eur city as above made in curved lines, or in shape of the figure 8. whien would leave pretty elliptic&l plots between the road- ways, The Washington city canal might then cease to beam unsightly object. We could haves daily influx of pure treah water held between its walls and covering the offensive objects | that sometimes assail the eyes and noses of | those in its vicinity. Were the suggested im- provement, in the mall carried eut, the tem- porary places of business on the borders of the canal would and should be removed to where they properly belong—the river front. Some may think that this might decrease the enues of our corporation, but if all the canal trade were removed to the river front the merease of the valuation of property on the river front would cause the assessments of taxes thereon to counterbalance the loss of revenues from the canal. Washington ts in the anomalous position of & city with a good river front, om which but Httle business is done, while the major part of its trade is carried on, on its largest thorough- fare, trom three-fourths of a mile toa mile from the river. The canal, now, is neither or- namental nor profitable. Intersecting, as fit would, the public park spoken of, it could be made highly ornamental. Its banks could be widened at any point, its depth lessened, and an artificial Jake formed; while the remaining portion could be enclosed by a small iron rail- ing, and the whole of it used for sewerage in the same manner as at preeent. A small dredger kept therein would be safficient to re- move the sediment and deposit from sewers that would from time to time find their way therein. Practically one cannot see the advantage of the canal for business purposes, and the best Teason to be given for that opinion is the fact that wood, coal, lime, sand, cement, lumber, | and such articles as are generally sold on its borders can be purchased at the sime rates in any otber portion of our city and deliy- erable at any other portion. The force of these suggestions will be felt by any one who will pass from Pennsylvania avenue, pause fora moment on one of our bridges and ob- serve the class of trade and buildings that the canal has created on i:s borders, and then pass on to the mall. ‘These are only a few general ideas roughly | thrown together. The subject is one, however, that will be found to grow in the hands of any: one who will devotea litte reflection to1t, aad whether we are to have a “Park” just outside the city limits or not, we have the material for a park here in our midst, within a stone's throw of Pennsylvania avenue, which a com- paratively trif_ing expenditure would convert into @ most beautifal retreat. 1t would in- volve no great expense at present; perhaps the planting of trees is the only thing really neces- sary now to prepare these public reservations for what they should be according to the de- sign here presented. An article in the /nfelligencer lately pointed ont how overdrives could be made across the streets running through the Public Grounds for the accommodation of the carriage-ways through the Grounds. W. D. Wise. Freedmen’ Bureau—The ‘ Astounding Disclosures’ of € ade Jew “Data” writes to the Sun: -The President has received a letter from New York signed by a large number of colered per- fons, beside the members of a colored church, asking the appointment of Fred. Douglass, or either of the several other negroes named to succeed General Howard, in case the latter shall be removed from the Freedmen’s No action will be taken in Gen. Howard’ for some time probably. The eo-called “astounding disclosures” of Tevolutionary purpores of the radicals and members of the Grand Army of the Republic, ‘with regard to party interests in the South, made by Colorado Jewett to the President, have not received the serious consideration of Mr. Johnson, as alleged. The story is on its face improbable, and is not supported by a scintills of verbal proof. General Gordon Granger proposes to leave to-morrow tor Memphis, to join his regiment. There is good authority for saying that Judge Black did not advise the President to issue his amnesty proclamation, and that he is opposed to granting amnesty now. s@Green Clay Smith is counting upon the chicken of Senatorship from the ungatched eggof the State of Montana, &7 A newspaper has been issued in the City of Mexico, in the Englisn lan the “Two Republics ibe idole MASONIC —WASHINGTON . i Compa LODGE, NO 14, F.
