to Baltimore. His friends in that city gave him
grand dinner in honor Of his brilliant deeds.


CIRCUIr CouRr.--U. S. vs.. Wall. The Court
took this case up yesterday, and are still engaged
upon it.


THE CAPITsL.--We paid flying visit this morn
ing to this far-falned ediico. The busy note Of
preparation even at this early day broke upon our
ears from every quarter. We first paid our respects
called from the star carpet, we suppose, the many
brilliant stars that congregate there annually. We


ound the floor stripped ofits beautiful caipet-the rich
and splendid chair and desk Of the Vice President, the
desk Of tho Secretary, the chair and desk of the
Senator'S thes gorgeous curtains that adorn the wall
and window, the magnificent drapery that surround


the chair Of the President Of the Senate had all been
removed TO be renovated aud cleaned. The splendid
Benton chandelier has been removed not to be re-
placed in consequence of the introduction OF gas; Of
which wewiIl speak hereafter. We thought we had
noted all, but inadvertently casting our eyes up to
the richly ornamented ceiling, the American Eagle,
the proud bird Of our country, met our gaze, with
bundle OF arrows in one talon and the olive branch
in the other with his beak and talons extended, he
appeared to be about to utter scream Of dlslnay at
the desolaton which surrounded him. Still one
object more met our eye-it was the admirable por-
trait Of the father of his country hanging against
the wall over the gallery occupied by the reporters
lie too appeared to be looking on tho confusion be-
low, but il was with that calm, clfpossessed cou-
tenance which was never uled amid the din Of bat
tie in the coulsels Of his country, or the cheerful
hearth of his own fireside We notice also some
change in the rotundolho picture Of the Baptism
OF Pocahonlus and tho Landing of the Pilgrim,
have changed places, for what reason, we did not
learn


We next visited the hall Of the House, here, too,
we found all in confusion-all the drapery and car
peiing have been removed, for cleansing All the
lamps in the Capitol, perceive. have been removcd
and their places supplied with pipes for the introduc-
ton Of gas. Mr. Crutchet, tho enterprising propri-
etor Of the gas has just received from Baltimore
splendid spar one hundred and five feet long. which
will be placed the dome for tho great lantera TO
rest on. Mr.. c. informed us that the mast will he
30 feet above the dome, the lantern will be raised
25 feet above the top Of the mast making clear above
tho domo los feet, and nearly 500 feel above the
level Of the avenue. We heard several gentlemen
remark, as the spar passed Office last evening,
that the dome would be unable to support its weight
We learn that the dome will be braced and secured
by iron bars Of sufficient strength to render every
thing perfectly strong and secure. The long iron
cistern for the gas will be completed this week We
congratulate our fellow citizens that, from all APP
pearances the apparatus for manufacturing and con-
Quoting the gas and lighting the Capitol grounds
is nearly completed.
