“Statesmanship’ Kefeshing reading is the ‘‘argament” of Mi Merrick, of the memorialists, who has, if pos- sible, been growing daily longer In the profile as it grew apparent that nobody could be ruined by the testimony. Not torain the Governor was the failare of the whole camp, aad Mr. Merrick directed bis gigantic powers te work the com- mittee up to this point. He says: “Are we to pass over those whose duty it 12 to fake care thas the lawe be faithfal- execu! u trembling goderlings of dics? Are wo to excuse the Board of Pabiic Works, required by the statute to bave a civi! engimeer as one of its body, and lay the blame upon the chaim-carriers and’ the feild? Are we to excase the is bard on Kurland and | Chtenadin tn tiber tho canesal of tame eon voluntary acts. We recommend that the me Tlalists take up contribution for them, and for the disconsolate safe-burglars. As to the “trembling waderiings of office,” we are unde- | cided, until we can learn where the quotation came from. It must bean exaggeration of Mr. Merrick’s aristocratic brain. People do not | tremble now-a-days, exeept with the fever and | Wasbington. It is Ingubrious to hear these old country lawyers lament the fever and ague, and slavery, and bacon and greens. And noth- ing should have so much incensed Mr. Merrick Ss to see clean streets, modern institutions, | taste, ornament, and, in short, an elegant | American capital where he hopsd the dying | cavalry of the rebellion would apply the torch, | sack the public buildings, and pat abolitionists | and contrabands to the sword. We can smile | at the impotent language he forces up to a dis- | mal rhetoric, which, we are glad for his sake, was not illuminated by his highly animated | countenance. He spoke from behind the scents, like his friend in the play: “Then know, that I, ,one Snug the joiner, am, No lion fell, nor else no lion’s dam.” The tribute Mr. Merrick pays to Washington city a8 the place of the -‘dreams of his y sath, ze of his “brightest visions,” and the “shrine of | former liberty,” alarm us not a little. Our de- sire had been to have several first class funerals, credited to the disease called <‘chagrin,” bat perbaps we are to be afflicted yet many years with these old rempants of as Indicrous self. esteem, and exaggerated Personality, and | descent. The British who burnt the Capitol in 1814 will presently get out of their graves and say that they, too, esteemed it in the dreams of i their youth and brightest visions. We are glad, | however, that there was a time when Mr. Mer- rick had something cheerful in bis composition. He looks like one of the “old masters” in Mark ‘Twain, which had come down from a frame and sadly needed cleaning up. “ our Own Impending Reservoir. ‘The high service reservoir in Georgetown, to which reference was made in yesterday’s Srag, | is a brick stractare, circular in shape, on the crest of a hill above the town. It was at first | intended to cover it with a brick dome, but the intention was only partly carried out, and the curved wall, cut off at half ite height, has been surmounted by ornamental! iron work. The Oddity of the structure and its lofty and isol: ated position makes it ene of the most Prominent | objects in a view of Georgetown from almost Sny direction. Water was first pumped into it during the war, but the bottom gave way. The leak was fortanately discovered in time to pre- vent damage, and the water was drawn off and ® Bew bottom pat in, since which there has been no sign of weakness. Asa matter of pre- caution, however, the reservoir is never filled to adepth of more than 14 feet, for fear the Pressure might develop another leak. As the | reservoir contains $1,000 gallons to the foot, | this limits its capacity to 1,176,000 gallons, The single pump which supplies it forces 8 gal- | jones at a stroke, 480 gallons tothe minate, 23,800 gallons to the hour, 316,800 gallons to the day | Of eleven hours, which is all the time the pump is worked. This reservoir supplies Ave thousand | people in upper Georgetown with water, and ip event of an secident to the pump or reservoir they would sutter from a water famine. As it | is, the supply is often reduced on Monday morn- ings (the pump being idle on Sunday) to half a | million gallons. There should be a larger ree- | ervoir on the higher ground north of this, and | ‘nother and more powerful pump, 80 as to | 1589,on the keep one at work all the time. In event of a break in the present reservoir the pressure would be partially relieved by opening the | several valves which connect the high-service with the mains down town. If the sapply was full and constant the great pressure from the | reservolr might be advantageously used in case | of fire by throwing open these connections with | the lowerjeystem, answering the same Purpose | as the stand-pipes which are used in Philadel- phia and i perhaps other cities, or The Next Presidency. ‘The political pot begins to simmé? géntly | although the next Presidential election is so far | ahead; and here are some of the speculations Ventilated by one of the political seers who makes Washington his headquarters: | ‘The scheme of inflation and the President's | veto have made a sectional division which | threatens to be irreparable, but meantime the President's action in the Baxter matter has | subdivided the two sections of infationists, crawing away the South, and rendering it pretty certain that if renominated he would, between his patronage and the conservative support, carry every state formerly in rebellion, New | York as well, with the codperation of Governor | Dis, N England and Obio, and with Senator Cbandier’s cooperation Michigan, and the | Pacific coast. It is the opinion of a sagacious public man that the next republican convention will be | controlled by the tnflationists, who will hold the | organization minus the patronage and the ap- prehensions of the country,—that the contrac- tioniste will bolt a platform advocating cheaper Or more money, that the President will then be | nominated by the bolting element and go for- ward, with steady accessionsas the campaign proceeds, flanking both the regulars aud the Gemocrats. New York is the third state of the Union to | try the experiment of a compulsory education | law. Under the provision of the bill which re- cent.y passed both houses of the legislature and Was approved by Governer Dix, ne child under fourteen years of age is now allowed to be put | cutteemployment unless a teacher or school offeer certifies to the fact that he has been taught for fourteen weeks of that year the branches of s commen school edacation. And for each and every year thereafter the employ- €r js held bound to allow him a similar course of €ducation for at least fourteen weeks, under a penalty of fifty dollars for each and every of- ‘Watterson, of | @ letter a dipngray or snd champagne,” in which Playing Ce-ar and riding into and a Fourth.
