During the adm'nistration of Secretary Beat- weil, Treasury department were fre- quently agitated by reports of a controversy tetwen Chief Clerk Savilie and Supervising Architect Mullett over the euperintendence of the department building.

HOW THEY CAN BE UTILZED. Editor Star: For over a year, a8 we all know, we have had very bard times, not only here, but ip nearly every part of the country. Mechanics and laborers have been and are still ont of employment. Consequently there have been hundreds of cases of actual suitering for the necesearies of life. This state of affairs has been brought about by the money panic of last year. Since that time business of every kind has been a'most st astand--till. This condition of affairs is telt but very little by the agricaltaral community, tor land has prodaced as well, and there is #8 great xbaudance of grain and fr of every kind as we have had for several vears past, and at the same time these prolacts have not decreased in price to such an extent as to materially aziect the agricultaral interest. ‘These tae's have protapted the writer ta make & tew evggretions, which he thinks would, if 4, lead to very ndvantageous results to mMUDIty, as Wel! as afford Very profitable investment. it ia strynge that so imany thoa- fan's of acres ct Iai d shou'd be idle and uncul- of the Capital of the popalation of about one hundred thousand to feet, with comparatively speaking no manutacturing establishments to supp rtit. Take trom us the annual appropriations by Congress, and we woul certainly be in a deplorable eandition. We ali know that we are dependent oa other places tor nearly all the supplies for the # of this greet population, an Wares and prodacts of the mechauleal arts are manufactured elsewhere, and atter passing through several hands, each making a email pront over 2 manafacturers’ prices, we ure com y all of these profits Berore we can poses tes thas mana- factured away from Lome. The same ts trae in regard to ths protuctaof the svil, the greater portion of our eatavles are | pa ta other sect.ons of the country. Our d ppert early ail tue laily vegetables mostly come trom Nortuik and ach as Places farther south, and our fruit ples, pears, peaches. (uinces, grapes, mostly brought from Eastern Maryiand, L Ware, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and New York. And our millers and teed dealers otten have to purchase their grain from the west aud northwestern states, or, they would not have nongh to sapply the demand it they hat to depend on the neiguboring counties of Ma iand and Virginia.

Here aud ai others of the many fine locations on this stream factor:es and shops for the manutacture of ploughs, har- rows, reapers, Ecvd ters, horse powers aud threshing mac htues and all kindsof agricaltaral implements, might advantageousty be estat lished, aud othere again for the manufacture of wagons, carte. drays, &c., such 4s we see hare, huncreds of them, made in New York, Phila- de}phis, Baltimore, Con20rd aud other parts ot the country— made there and shipped here at a heavy experse, carrying thousande of anpually out of this District that coald ba ke near Lome. ‘Luere is tho best of timbar 0° every kind for wagou and carriage work a!) along this stream. ‘Thep, again, let n* have factories for the ‘acturlng of tabs, buckets, washing ma- chines, churns, and wooden ware of every de scription. All we need is the right kind of a spirit of enterprize on the part ef the people of this District, and. ina few years we can have all these things establisned and in successful operation. They will give profitabie employ- ment to hundreds of our intelligent and use. fall mechanics, who now find it dificalt to make a living almost at anything, and will prove 8 profitable investment to any of our mopeyed men who would be wise enough to lend their aid and intinence to the buildizg of such enterprises. CULTIVATE THE LAND. Next we come to the matter of the agriculta- ral pursuits. As we have said that there are thousands of acres of land uncultivated within afew miles of the District, which if properly managed, will produce all the fruits and vege- tables that can possibly be consumed here and leave a surplus to ship away to other places, so that we can be sellers instead of buyers. Agitis advisable to organize companies for manufacturing purposes, I don’t kuow but it would be #8 well to fellow the same plan in re- gerd to farming operations. If a company or companies would organize and buy some thou- sands of acres of land, and then divide it up into small farms of twenty-five, turty, fitty, sixty and one hundred scree, and sub-let them to good, industrious farmers and gardeners for &term of five or ten years, binding them to farm the lands as directed by the compayy or its agent, and to always have in view the im- provement of the lanis, to plant fruit trees. araperies, &c., inafew years this land, which Can be bought row at b very little expense to the purchaser ot the land ex- ceptthe first cost. It should b> understood that the tenants cou r farms at any time at a reasonable profit on the original cost. We have here thousands of loads of stable msnure and fertilizers of different kunde, the greater portof which are shipped away to Norfoik and other places, where the gardeners bay ali they Can get at A cost to them of about fifty csncs per yard, and they say i: pays them well. This show not be, when we have so mach poor land that's in need of ati the fertilizers that we have, without sending any away; and, besides, it it pays them to ship that distance, it will pay us better to keep it for our own lands. ‘These lands are as weil adapted for grazing and stock raising as any lande I ever saw. With the proper cultivation xad management, grass of every kind takes weil, and it ia a kind of soil that will stand a drought for a long time with- out injury to the grass or growing crops. As I proposed, in the tirst place, to make some enegestions that would be a benetit to the mechanics snd taboring class who have been out of ewploymest. anda great many who are stl heron ag ithink I have shown very conclusively to the mind of any one who will give the subject due consideration, that if these aes were adopted and carried out, il would be of incalculable advantage to the classes proj to be benefitted thereby, aud at the samé time the capitalists who would be fortunate enough to invest of their means in come of these undertakings will be certain to realize @ profit on investment, and will have the satisfaction, at the same time, of kvowing that they are benefitting their ow- men.
