Mr. Swann said the committee on appropria- tions had carefully examined this whole subject, and found the United States under obligations to this District todosomething for it. The lands and squares ceded to the general government by property-holders here would run up to an smount of more than thirty millions of dollars.

Mr. Maynard (Tenn.) compared the city as it | was now with what it was years ago. It was now a pride to exhibit the capital to the citizens of the country who came here, and he had yet to find the first citizen who objected to the improve- ments or to the amount of taxes.
