PREFACE In presenting this work to the public, we desire to say a few words defining its mission. It is a known fact that strangers visiting our city naturally feel a desire to witness and have explained to them the magnificent works of art and Govern- ment buildings with which our city abounds. Heretofore the travelling public have been compelled to place themselves in the hands of io-norant hack-drivers and trust to their rude bal- derdash for explanations and reminiscences concerning the Dis- trict of Columbia. The Gazetteer will be found a safer and more intelligent guide, and will more satisfactorily explain the advantages and beauties of Washington than any other medium. Hence the traveller can learn what inducements we have to ofi"er him to make our city his home. Aside from its histori- cal and pictorial information, the Gazetteer will be found to contain the names and address of all tlie principal business and professional men in the District, a feature which commends itself to our citizens and which makes it desirable in every counting-room and office. In addition to the above, will be found the laws passed by our legislature regarding license and taxes, hacks, vehicles, &c., and the act of Congress creating the new territorial government for the District of Columbia. We feel confident that our aim is good, and bravely push our effbrt before the people as candidates for public favor. CONTENTS. Page.

WASHINGTON CITY. The city of Washington, the capital of the United States, is situated on the Potomac river, at the mouth of the Anacostia or Eastern Branch. The site was chosen by General George Washington, the first Pres- ident of the nation. The design of the city Avas made by a French- man, L'Enfant, who originally intended that the Capitol should occupy the centre of the city ; but from various causes it has grown principally westward. Pennsylvania avenue, the great thoroughfare of the city, ex- tends from the Eastern Branch to Georgetown, and is justly considered one of the finest streets in the world. From the Capitol to the Treas- ury building this magnificent boulevard is paved with the Nicholson wood pavement, and ornamented on each side with beautiful shade trees. The largest and finest mercantile houses of the city are on this avenue. During the " gay season " Pennsylvania avenue presents a most lively appearance. Every evening, just before the last rays of the setting sun sets below the horizon, may be seen the beauty and fashion of the American capital here parading in luxurious equipages. Unlike all other American cities, Washington is not a commercial city. To a stranger she is more like Paris. Being the political capi- tal of one of the largest and most powerful nations upon earth, her streets are naturally thronged with strangers from all parts of the civilized world. The Government buildings, works of art, and national souvenirs, not only make her beautiful, but more than ordi- narily attractive to sight-seers. In attempting to give a sketch of the attractions of the capital of the nation, we naturally begin with tlie 'j-i'eat centre of atti-action. 58 TPIE CAPITOL. Not the temple of Solomon at Jerusalem, nor the temple of Diana at Ephesus, in the olden time^ nor St. Peter's at Rome, nor St. Paul's at London, in modern times, afford the beholder (either in ideal con- ception or in reality) so grand an idea of harmonious yet magnificent proportions as the Capitol of the United States, with its cloud-piercin,^- dome and extended wings. The first exclamation of the visitor as he approaches the American Temple is that of astonishment at its pro- poi'tions, the symmetrical lift of its mighty Dome, the harmonious stretch of its extensions. The corner-stone of this magnificent edifice was laid hy General George Washington on the 18th day of Septem- ber, 1793. A critical inspection of the Capitol and its departments is not to be accomplished in an hour, nor in a day, while a minute description of its main features would fill a volume. The length of the entire structure is 751 feet, (nearly a quarter of a mile,) and the pile of marble covers about four acres and one-third of ground ; the surrounding reservation grounds embrace thirty acres more, embel- lished by fountains, statuary, &c. These are yet to be greatly enlarged and adorned. A condensed description of the edifice will assist the observer to a correct tout-^enscmhle of the whole. The Senate Chamber and Hall of the House of Representatives are located in the new wings, the Senate on the left and the House on the right, as you ascend the main stair- way leading up into the great Rotunda. The Dome, which lifts its tremendous frame above the Rotunda, is 220 feet from floor to apex, and from the base of the Capitol about 400 feet. The figure of the Statue of Freedom, which crowns the Dome, is of bronze, twenty-one feet high, and weighing 14,985 pounds. This statue was commenced by Crawford, the artist, and completed by Clark Mills. Jefferson Davis, then Secretary of War, and having super- visory charge of the Capitol, suggested to the artist the "helmet cap" of eagle feathers and beak that now ornaments the statue. This great Dome is modern in its structure, and that there is none other that rivals or equals it in the world is the opinion of famed architects in this country and in Europe. A smaller dome on each side would, per- haps, add grace and harmony as a whole, but their absence leaves noth- ing to regret in the contemplation of the edifice as it stands. The Senate Chamber and Hall of the House are especially worthy the inspection of visitors. Their arrangements are reputed the best that the genius of art could suggest, and their adornments quite take away the beholder's ideas of republican simplicity. The Senate wing is 113 feet long, 80 feet wide, and 36 feet high ; the galleries will seat about 1,200 people. The House wing is 139 feet long, 93 feet wide, and 36 feet high ; accommodation of the galleries about the same as the Senate. The Rotunda is 96 feet in diameter, and 220 feet high ; something near the elevation of the highest church steeples. On the first floor it is divided into eight panels ; in each are paint- ings representing, respectively.

More than 50,000 Inventors have availed themselves of their services in procuring patents, and many millions of dollars have accrued to the patentees, whose specifications and claims they have pre- pared. For the past ten years the cases filed in the Patent Office by them are about one-third of the entire number>f applications filed Their corps of specification writers and counsellors are made up from the ranks of the Patent Office, and are men capable of rendering the best service to the inventor from>e experience practically obtained while Examiners in the Patent Office. They make searches and give opinions as to the novelty and patentability of inventions or the scope or validity of patents, prepare and file caveats, prepare and prosecute applications for patents, re-issues, and extensions, prepare and attend to the registry of trade marks and copy rights, prepare and record agreements, assignments, powers of attorney, conduct interferences and appeals. They also prose- cute rejected applications which have been improperly prepared by the inventor or incompetent attorneys. Good inventions are often rejected for no other reason than that the^cases were not properly presented to the office. Inventors will find it to their interest to consult them about matters relating to patents, and they can do so either in person at their office in this city, or in New York or by letter. In all cases they may expect an honest opinion. For such consultations, opinions, and advice, no charge is made. All business committed to their care and all consultations are kept secret and strictly con- fidential Pamphlets containing laws and instructions how to ob- tain patents sent free on application; also,>amphlets giving cost of obtaining patents in all foreign countries. Munn & Co. have solicited a larger number of European Patents than any other agency, and they have agents located in London, Paris, Brussels, Berlin, and other chief cities of Europe.

The main entrance is on E street, b}' a flight of gran- ite steps leading to a vestibule ; to the right and left of this vestibule are spacious corridors leading to the different apartments in the build- ing. The Postmaster General, together with his assistants and their clei'ks, occupy the whole building, with the exce})tion of a portion of the first story, which is now occupied and used as the city post office, the entrance to which is on F street^ opposite tlie Patent Office. There is a little incident (related to the writer by one of the oldest inliabitants) connected with the survey of the ground on which the Post Office now stands which may be of interest to the reader. After the present site had been determined upon, the Government surveyor and his assistants proceeded to the spot and commenced driving down stakes to designate the exact position of the building. After laboring hard all day they returned to their abodes, but on arriving on the ground the next morning they found all the stakes pulled up, and an old lady standing in a threatening attitude in the centre of the lot, and who, upon tlieir approach, declared in most positive words that the work should not go on. Paying no heed to this remonstrance, the men proceeded to I'epa'r the damage, but as fast as they would drive down a stake, the old lady, with heroic fortitude, would pull it up, and finally, seeing their deter- mination to destroy her property, as she declared, this female cham- pion of landlords' rights seized a club and drove the desecrators of her home away from the scene. Andrew Jackson, then President of the United States, hearing of the difficulty, repaired to the scene of action, and was immediately approached by the female warrior and warned off the premises. The old General tried threats, but they were unheeded, and finally, after a great deal of coaxing, and the promise to build her a house to live in the balance of her days, the old lady surrendered. The President in after yeans often told the story, and claimed it as one of his great- est victories. THE STATE DEPARTMENT. The building occupied by this Department of the General Govern- ment is situated on the corner of Fourteenth and S streets N. W. It is built of brick, and was originally intended for an orphan asylum^ but is leased by the Government for a term of years, and until the new State Department building is finished. The site of the new State Department now building is on Seventeenth street, west of the President's Mansion and adjoining the War and Navy Departments. It is to be built of granite quarried near Eichmond, Va., and when completed will be one of the finest structures in Washington. THE NATIONAL OBSERVATORY is situated on the corner of E street north and Twenty-fourth street west. The site is a beautiful one, and commands a fine view of Georgetown and the surrounding country. The Potomac river, one of the most majestic streams in the world, flows by, and like a huge serpent rambles silently on as far as the eye can reach, until lost below the horizon. The reputation of this institution is world-wide^ and, al- though only established in 1842, it is said that there are none superior to it. 73 THE XAVV-VARP. The Navy-yard of Washington, occupying an area of twenty-eight acres, is situated on the Eastern Brancli, about one mile southeast from the Capitol. It includes an armory, foundry, a laboratory for prepar- ing ordnance stores, and, in lact, all the conveniences for ship-build- ing, &c. Among the vessels built here in former days may be men- tioned the Wasp, the Essex, the Brcmdyivine, and Columbia. During our late war many iron-clad vessels were built and rigged at this yard, some of which are at present stored away within the spacious docks, relics of the nation's skill, old friends whose services are no longer required, and, like old friends, are being too nearly forgotten. Why is it that our Government in time of peace pays so little regard to the necessity of keeping their navy-yards in good order? Not only is the Washington yard neglected, (the entrance to which is a disgrace to the nation,) but nearly all the others are suiFering in like manner. The yard at Portsmouth, Virginia, particularly, is more like a truck- dealer's yard than anything else we can compare it to. England, Rus- sia, and Prussia have, by wise and liberal management and by judicious legislation, finally succeeded in so improving their facilities for ship- building that they now possess the finest navies, as well as the most com- plete navy-yards, in the world. The United States, notwithstanding the terrible lesson taught her in 1861, still permits her splendid facilities to lay idle, and her reputation for shipbuilding to become a thing of the past. THE WASHINGTON ARSENAL. The Arsenal occupies a tract of land on the extreme end of Green- leaf Point, and commands a fine view up and down the Potomac river. The principal buildings are the repository for the storage of arms, the officers' quarters, and the commandant's residence. The grounds are very tastefully laid out, and are properly cared for. Along the water front are fine rows of shade trees and gravel walks, and at intervals large pyramids of cannon balls loom up and indicate at once the character of the institution. THE WASHINGTON MONUMENT. The National Monument to Washington, an offering of love and reverence from a grateful people to " The Fathei- and Defender of his Country," is situated on what is called the Mall, south of the Presi- dential Mansion. The corner-stone of this grand piece of architecture was laid July 4, 1848. As this is intended as a tribute from the peo- ple of the United States, as well as all others throughout the world who desire to honor the great hero and statesman, only contributions from such sources would be received toward it. Through the energy and perseverance of George Watterston, Esq., and others, the project was pushed forward until it reached it present altitude of 150 feet. The plan and scheme are grand, and it is hoped that the American people will soon exert themselves to raise tlie necessary funds to complete it. The honor is due the immortal hero. Besides, it is a duty that ought not to be neglected. The obelisk or base on which the Monument rests is 81 feet square, and the whole structure^ when completed, is to be GOO feet high. The 74 base is a temple 250 feet in diameter and 100 feet high. Surmounting the portico of tlie entrance is to be a colossal statue of Washington, 30 feet high. The figure will be represented in a chariot drawn by horses driven by Victory. A magnificent terrace crowning this pan- theon will be opened at the four cardinal points, and each surmounted with a circular temple embellished with symbols of Immortality. Trenton, Brandywine, and other scenes of the Revolution are repre- sented on tablets of sculpture on each face of the main shaft. Around this pantheon is a colonnade, the columns of which are sur- mounted by an entablature 20 feet high, containing the coat of arms of every State in the Union. Over this is a balustrade, forming a colonnade surrounding the terrace. The stairway in front of the portico is to be embellished with the statues of the great herofS of 1776. Ascending the stone steps, we reach a gallery which leads to a series of cabinets, one for each State, in which are to be deposited the names of the contributors ; also, the records regarding the Monument. There will also be in the grand base a number of apartments curi- ously and ingeniously constructed, and wliich will be in itself a won- derful subterranean apartment, as difficult of exploring as the wildest forests. This grand structure will be, when completed, a fit monu- ment for the gifted son of America, and one that will reflect honor upon the nation. Why, then, is it not completed ? Why, when the crowned heads of Christendom have contributed their offering to this emblem of a nation's love, do not the American people come forward and complete the work? Let us hope the day is not far distant when they will ; and when that day does come, let every American heart rejoice in possessing the grandest monument upon earth, and in the satisfaction of having done their duty. HOWARD UNIVERSITY. This institution was organized under an act of Congress, and is intended to be a university of the highest gi ade. Although in the act of incorporation there is no mention made of either race or color, yet it is understood to be designed especially for colored people. The buildings are located on Seventh street, and are situated in the midst of beautiful grounds, and is easy of access by railway from all parts of the city. Although only recently established, the institution is gaining an enviable reputation throughout the country. THE MEDICAL MUSEUM, is situated on Tenth street, between E and F streets. Here are collected all casts of surgery taken from actual operations performed during the late war, both on the field and in hospital ; also, many rare curiosities of more than ordinary interest to the student of medicine.

All drop letters must be prepaid by postage stamps, at the rate of 2 cents per one-half ounce. Prepayment by stamps required on all letters to places within the United States. Full prepayment by stamps required on all transient printed matter^ foreign and domestic. All letters not prepaid by stamps, all such as are received in the office with stamps cut from stamped envelopes, or with such postage stamps as were in use prior to 1861, or with revenue stamps on them, are treated as " unmailable " and sent to the Dead-Letter Office. Letters for Georgetown, D. C, require 3 cents for each one-half ounce. Letters which have not been delivered can be forwarded, without additional charge, upon a written request. Letters once delivered from a post office cannot be remailed without prepayment of a new postage. Quarterly rates of postage cannot be received for a less time than one quarter. 105 When the subscription to a newspaper, periodical, or magazine commences at any other time than the beginning of a postal quarter, the payment must be made to the end of the next following quarter. Parties claiming to have paid postage in advance to the late post- master must produce a receipt or other satisfactory evidence that the postage has been paid as claime;,!. Potatoes, apples, peaches and other fruit are not mailable matter, and should be excluded from the mails. Winter-green leaves, sage leaves, and herbs for medicinal purposes, are subject to letter rates of postage. Any printed matter so marked or written upon as to convey any other or further information than is conveyed by the original print is subject to letter rates of postage. Lead pencils, shirts, and towels, if sent by mail, are subject to let- ter rates of postage. Manuscripts and corrected proofs for attorneys' briefs and arguments are subject to letter postage. Manuscripts for pamphlets or lists for agricultural societies are also subject to letter postage. Valuable letters should be carried to the Post Office and registered. If money is to be remitted a Postal Money Order should be obtained. Money should never be enclosed in an ordinary letter. All letters to be mailed must be plainly addressed, and the name of the Post Office, State, and County clearly written. Care in this re- spect will insure the prompt delivery of all letters, while a defective address carries them invariably to the Dead-Letter Office. MONEY-ORDER OFFICE. Especial attention is called to the Money-Order system as a safe and cheap method of transmitting small sums through the mails. Orders are issued in sums of not more than $50. Larger amounts can be transmitted to the same person, at the same time, by additional orders. Rates. On orders not exceeding $20 10 cents Over $20 and not exceeding $30 15 '' Over$30 '' '' $40 20 '' Over$40 " '' ' $50 25 " Money-orders can be obtained on any post office of Switzerland at the above rates. REGISTRY DEPARTMENT. Letters may be registered, by paying postage in full, and a registra- tion fee in stamps, for — United States 15 cents Letters ca7inot be registered to France. POSTAGE ON PRINTED MATTER, ETC. Neivspapers. Newspapers sent by mail must be prepaid by stamps, unless "^ regu- larly issued and sent to regular subscribers " by publishers or news- dealers, when the following rates are charged, payable quarterly in advance, either at the mailing or delivery office : 106 Dailies 35 cents Six times a week 30 '^ Tri-Weeklies 15 '' Semi-Weeklies 10 '' Weeklies 5 " Semi-Monthly, not over 4 ozs 6 " Monthlies, not over 4 ozs 3 " Quarterlies^ not over 4 ozs 1 " Newspapers, periodicals, and circulars dropped into the office for lo- cal delivery must be j)repaid at the rate of 2 cents for 4 ounces. The postage on regular papers, &c., must be paid in advance to the carrier or at the office, otherwise they will be charged at transient rates. Postage to Canada. Postage on books and other printed matter, including newspapers, can only be paid to the Canada line. Books. Not exceeding 4 ounces in weight, 4 cents. And for each additional 4 ounces, or fraction, 4 cents. Unsealed Circulars. Not exceeding three in number to one address, 2 cents. Over three and not exceeding six to one address, 4 cents. Any larger number the same proportionate rates. Transient Printed Matter. One package to one address, not exceeding 4 ounces, 2 cents. And for each additional 4 ounces, or fraction thereof, 2 cents.

The weight of packages of seeds, cuttings, roots, and scions is limited to 32 ounces. FREE DELIVERY. The deliveries of letters and other mailable matter by carriers, in the central and business sections of the city, are made as follows : 8.30 and 11 o'clock A. M.; 2 and 4.15 o'clock P. M. In the outside districts deliveries are made at 8.30 A. M. and 2 o'clock P. M. Collections from the street boxes are made at the same time of the delivery in each section. Collections are also at 6.30 P. M. for the evening mails. Parties now renting boxes, or receiving their mail matter through the General Delivery, can receive their mail at their residences or 107 places of business, regularly and without risk, by the Carrier System of Free Delivery, by giving orders to the carrier of their district, or to the Superintendent at Post Office. The advantages of a free delivery system cannot be too highly esti- mated. It is more regular, more secure, and more convenient than the box system. If the business community could be induced to cease sending hoys to the Post Office for their mail matter, and accept the means provided by the Department for a safe delivery through responsible carriers, a great evil would be corrected, and many losses (now occurring) pre- vented. Carriers are required to collect all arrears of postage upon delivery of matter, the law being imperative in this respect. The Postmaster General recommends that safe and convenient boxes for the receipt of mail be provided at private residences and business offices. It is only necessary that a letter should be plainly and accurately addressed to insure its prompt delivery, and in making such address, writers should, in addition to the number and street, be careful to add the quarter of the city, as N. W., S. W., N. E., or S. E., as the case may be. It is believed that the carriers will, in all cases, be prompt and faith- ful in the discharge of their duties, in which they can be greatly aided by the public, by providing receptacles for the mail, as above sug- gested, or by promptly answering the call of carriers at their doors. Any neglect on the part of carriers should be at once reported to the office, that it may be corrected. ENVELOPES. No additional charge will be made for printing the name and ad- dress, with request to return to writer, on any of the envelopes fur- nished by the Post Office Department, (samples of which may be seen at the Stamp window,) when ordered in lots of not less than 500. The occupation of writer will not be printed. A request for the return of a letter to the writer, if unclaimed within thirty days, or less, written or printed, with the writer's name, post office, and State on the upper left hand corner of the envelope, on the face side, will be complied with. The public are earnestly recommended to procure stamped envel- opes, with printed return request, as the expense is less, and letters thus endorsed, if not delivered to the person addressed, are returned to the writer free of charge. Stamped envelopes spoiled in directing are redeemed at this office. DO NOT DETAIN YOUR CARRIER. It would prove a great assistance to the carrier system if persons would avoid detaining their carrier in collecting his postage, or keep- ing him waiting at the doors of private residences ; for the carrier, while waiting only a few minutes, would be able to serve nearly a whole square. Delays can be obviated by procuring a letter-box, to be placed on the door, or in the entry of one's residence. (A specimen box can be seen by calling upon the Superintendent of Carriers.) The Post- master General recommends the use of these boxes for safety. 108 FOREIGN MAILS. j^S*- The asterisk (*) iadicates that in cases where it is prefixed, unless the letter be registered, prepay- ment is optional ; in all other cases prepayment is required.

G E o K G 1^: T o w :n , the second city in size in the District of Columbia, is beautifully situated on the east side of the Potomac and separated from the na- tional capital by Rock creek, and is distant about three miles west from the Capitol. It was originally laid out in 1*751, at which time it belonged to the State of Mary kind, and was incorporated a town in 1*789; Robert Peter, Esq., being the first Mayor. Under the pro- vision of the act of Congress entitled "An act to provide a government for tlie District of Columbia/' approved February 21, 18T1, George- town, like all other portions of the District of Columbia, lost her in- dividuality as a being corporate and became a part and parcel of the " New Territorial Government." The city is noted for its fine schools and academies, foremost among which we may mention Georgetown College, situated on the Heights^ immediately north of the city, com- manding a fine view of the Potomac liver and the surrounding coun- try. The position of Georgetown is remarkably salubrious. It is handsomely situated on a succession of hills, so that its streets are thoroughly cleansed of every impurity on the occasion of any con- siderable rain that falls. The trade of the city consists of lumber, coal, tobacco, flour, soap, candles, &c., and although not very con- siderable at the present time, in former years she was a place of con- siderable importance. To give the reader an opportunity to judge of the energy and enter- })rise which characterized the early inhabitants of tliis interesting little city we append hereto a short sketch of her younger days, which has been kindly furnished us from the pen of one of her most eminent lawyers, a gentleman in every way fully capable of doing the subject justice : " Georgetown, situated at the confluence of Rock creek and the Po- tomac river, was laid out by an act of the legislature of Maryland in 1751; and being situated upon a noble river soon became a place of trade and commerce with foreign countries. The planters and farmers brought their cmps here lor sale or shipment to a distant land. As high as 5,000 liogsheads of tobacco have been shipped in one year^ and not less than 300,000 barrels of flour have been inspected in the same length of time. Many of our citizens remember the ships Eagle and Shenandoah, which sailed regularly to Europe loaded with tobac- co, and brought in return cargoes of salt. In course of time our ships went the way of all ships by being stranded at sea, and our noble town felt the great loss of the vessels that were wont to unload at our wharves, amidst the shouts of the boatmen and the songs of the sailors. A number of enterprising citizens afterwards purchased four ships, named the Francis Bepau, Southerner, Caledonia^ and Catherine Jack- son. They made their appearance in our harbor in the summer and autumn of 1836, and after making several voyages Avero finally sold as being' too large for our commerce. " Our merchants then engaged in the coasting trade, having a num- ber of vessels sailing to Boston, Newburyport, New York^ and other 158 cities, carrying away large quantities ol" flour and produce brought down the Chesapeake and Ohio canal, which extends into the interior of Maryland a distance of 184 miles. Others extended their com- merce to the West Indies, and we had large quantities of sugar and productions of tlie Indies brought in every few months, and sold upon the wharves at ])ublic sale. In course of time the sailing pack-ets passed away, and we have in their place steamers plying between our town, Baltimore, New York, Philadelphia, and Norfolk, which al- ways arrive heavily loaded witli freight, and carry away in return cargoes of flour. The heaviest trade carried on at this time is in the article of coal. Thousands of boats arrive at our town by the canal from Cumberland, loaded with coal, which is shipped in vessels to distant ports, and is largely used by the ocean steamers and manufac- tui-ing establishments. Our river is frequently covered with vessels, Avith their forest of masts reaching toward the sky, awaiting their turn to be loaded, before sailing to a distant clime. " Our town is so located that the Potomac river has a fall of thirty- three feet within four miles from the Little Falls to the canal basin, and the canal flowing through the town having the same fall to the river, renders its banks desirable for milling purposes. The conse- (}uence is, we have a number of merchant mills in our town, located on the canal and propelled by water power. The first is the mill of D. L. Shoemaker ; the second, William H. Tenney & Sons ; third, Mark Young ; fourth, James S. Welsh ; fifth, George Shoemaker ; sixth, Ross Ray & Brother ; seventh, George Hill's paper mill ; eighth, A. H. Herr, at the foot of the market. These mills will shell out from 150 to 300 barrels of flour per day. Besides these we have other mills in the neighborhood of the town, as the Lock Mills, on the canal, about two miles above the town, Lyon's Mills, and the Columbia Mills, located on Rock creek, all of which are supplied with grain brought down the canal, or by vessels from a distance. "Our town was chartered in 1789 by the legislature of Maryland. From that year to the 1st day of June, 1871, it never had but two clerks : the late John Mountz was clerk from the passaire of the char- ter until 1856, when he was superseded in office by William Laird, Esq., the present clerk and treasurer, now settling up the financial affairs of the town. Mr. Mountz became disqualified for the active duties of clerk by advanced age, and was still retained by our corpo- rate authorities as consulting clerk until 1st August, 1857, when he died^ at an advanced age, ' an honest man, the noblest work of God.' Mr. Laird, his successor, lias no superior as an accountant in this coun- try, being the son of an eminent merchant of our town, qualified by a liberal education and long service in the counting-room. He ful- filled the expectations of the people. Now our charter has passed away, and we have entered upon a municipal District government, the question is, shall we be benefited by the change ? Three corporations are now concentrated into one municipalitJ^ We are now with Wash- ington, one town, one city, and one people. If the new government is strangled in its infancy with too much ' pap,' we shall perish. Other- wise Ave shall float upon the tide of prosperity, and the genius of our commerce will spread her white wings over every sea, until we shall become renowned throusrhout the inhabitable globe.'' 159 The only other phices of any importance in the District of Columbia are Tennallytown, Brightwood, and Uniontown, the first two named being very small we will only briefly notice the latter. UNIONTOWN. This little village is beautifully situated on the Anacostia river, near its mouth, and opposite the United States Arsenal. Its location is very picturesque and desirable for private residences. Resting on the side of a sloping hill, commanding a lovely view of the city of Washing- ton, Uniontown appears like a Swiss village, and its neat white cot- tages present an air of liveliness and thrift. Many wealthy citizens have taken up their residence here, and have built beautiful rural homes on the summit of the hill overlooking the town. Its close prox- imity to the national capital affords its citizens ample market facilities and intercommunication with all parts of the country. The Wash- ington city passenger railway leaves the Navy-Yard, only a short walk from the bridge connecting Uniontown with the capital, every five minutes during the day for all parts of the city and Georgetown. The village contains a few small stores, churches, schools, &c. MOUNT PLEASANT.. Mount Pleasant is situated upon the elevated plateau northwest of Washington and about half a mile from Boundary street, the nominal limit of the city. It is approached by Fourteenth-street road, which forms the present eastern border of the village. Sixteenth-street road, which is about to be opened, will intersect the old Georgetown road at James Esslin's, and follow the route of that road through the western part of Mount Pleasant, passing the residences of S. P. Brown and Mrs. General Walbridge, to meet the Fourteenth-street road at Piney Branch. Being upon a high, sandy plain and remote from marshes, Mount Pleasant is, perhaps, the most healthy suburb of Washington, as is proved by its complete exemption from chills and fever and the au- tumnal fevers of malarious districts which frequently prevail in the city, particularly in some localities in the outskirts^ and during very dry or very wet and changeable seasons. Mount Pleasant was commenced in 1866 by opening Howard street and the erection thereon of five houses, Mr. B. P. Davis, the present superintendent of schools, being the leader in the movement. Each residence had a full acre of ground^ so situated as to be divided when desirable, the cost at that time being $650. At present, 1871, ground is worth from 5 to 10 cents per square foot, or from $2,000 to $4,000 per acre, and rapidly rising in value. Excellent water is found by digging wells to the depth of thirty or forty feet, and the earth being sandy or alluvial, there is no difficulty in making driven wells simply by driving an iron tube, properly pointed, until water is reached, and then by attaching a pump at the top a full supply of underground spring water is obtained. Mount Pleasant has grown, and is now growing, very rapidly, and in connection with the improvements of College Hill and the Merid- 160 ian Hill properly, it will soon be continuous with the city of Washing- ton. A good school has been long established, and a large school house is now being erected for higher classes and a properly-graded school. Witli Columbian College on the border of Mount Pleasant, the opportunities for education are excellent. An omnibus is owned by those who do not keep their own carriages. It runs regularly to the Treasury and Patent Office, and three times a week it goes to Centre Market, and waits there to take home marketing ; and as soon as Four- teenth street is graded, the contract for which is already given out, the horse-railroad will be extended half a mile to Mount Pleasant. The residents of Mount Pleasant are very intelligent, and many of them highly educated^ and they sustain a literary and scientific so- ciety, in which both sexes and all ages participate. Also, they have an informal church, which ignores sectarianism, under the belief of Christian union and Christian works, and not creeds. F. CERMUILLER, VT'.A.sniisra-xoKr, id. c.
