Gruide to Washington. AVe now propose to take the traveler to all the places of note in and about Washington, commencing with the most prominent building, which is the Capitol. This magnificent structure is situated at the intersection of Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and Maryland Avenues. This is a building of which the American people may well he proud. It is built in the five ordei^ of architecture, with ten different kinds of marble, surmounted by a dome of solid iron. The entire length of the building, from the Senate Chamber, in the North, to the Hall of Representatives, in the South, is 850 feet. Its l)readth, from East to West, is 500 feet : the Dome having a base diameter of 96 feet, and a clear height of 220 feet. The Dome presents a magnificent spectacle when illuminated with its thousand gas-lights, presenting to the eye its many historical paintings, designed and executed by the most eminent artists of the world. Having introduced you into this magnificent building, we would suggest that you procure a small guide, viz : "a pamphlet which can be had in the Rotunda, (at a trifling cost,) containing a Key to the Senate Chamber and House of Representatives ; also of everything (^f im])ortance in and about the l)uilding. From the (Japitol proceed to the Smithsonian Institute, via 7th Street cars, to the East gate, where you will pass through grounds beautifully laid out and handsomely decorated. TJiis is a department more particularly cal- culated to interest the antinuarian, but, nevertheless, any scientific mind will here find much to its edification. This Institution has recently lost many of its chief atractions by fire, consisting of ancient paintings, engravings, &c., Avhich can never be replaced. Anima's may here be seen ranging in size from the smallest insect to the lar2:est and most o-icantic kinos of the History of the ITITar. Although Ave might go many years back to find the first seeds of the rebellion, yet this record properly commences Avith the assembling of the South Carolina Convention at Columbia, on the 17th of December, 1860. The Southern leaders foreseeing the defeat of their measures by the election of Abraham Lincoln, issued manifestoes and made violent speeches, calcu- lated to arouse the jjassions of the people. After the 6th of November, the Southerners prosecuted war measures energetically. Cabinet ofiicers scat- tered the army and navy, and robbed the Federal Treasury. Many of the more moderate fought against secession for a long time, but were finally overwhelmed by the tide and carried with it; All eftorts on the part of com- mittees appointed by both Houses of Congress to harmonize the antagonistic elements were unsuccessful. On the 8th of November, the Palmetto flag Avas hoisted in Charleston, and South Carolina voted $100,000 to purchase arms. On the lOtli a committee Avas called, and the United States ofiicers in Charleston resigned. Georgia also voted $1,000,000 to arm the State. Major Anderson Avas placed in command at Fort Moultrie. President Bu- chanan took the position that the General Government had no authority to coerce a State if she AvithdrcAv from the Union. Louisiana at' once appro- priated $500,000 for military purposes. HoAvell Cobbj Secretary of the Treasury, resigned. President Buchanan opposed the reinforcement of the forts of Charleston harbor, and then Gen. Cass, Secretary of State, resigned in disgust. On the 20th South Carolina seceded by a unanimous vote in hei- convention, and the ncAvs Avas joyfully receiA^ed throughout the South. One t'ori'st.
