'I‘h strects running enstward from the pitol were to be continuous arcades, like the sequestered slcoves of Bolog and Venice. Between the capitol and the president’s reside were to be elysian fields, and palatial dwellings for the forvign ambassadors, aud the public \mll«ln|g~ But even at that eurly day s and “jobs” found their account. The indignant Frenchman, beset on all sides by venal legislators and self-seels- ing jobbers, threw up his commission in disdain, and the city as it stands was perfected by Andrew Bllicott.

Churches, schools, colleges, even Harvard itse! were indebted to the wheel for mo to secure their usefulness! In 1796 the president’s house und the capitol were the only evidences of a city where the traveler now sees squares and monu- ments, edifices and gardens, that eclipse Paris and Vienna in beauty and taste.
