NEW PKESIDENTIAIJ MANSION.-It is
said that efforts are being made by a
number of influential gentlemen to
get Congress to purchase a large and
beautiful tract of laud, on the North?
ern side of the city, well and favor?
ably known to the residents of "Wash?
ington as the resort of pic-nie and
pleasure parties, for the purpose of
erecting thereon a Presiden tin 1 man?
sion, with a magnificent park attach?
ed. There is a famous spring of
water upon the place, the ground is
well wooded, and is in every way
desirable for thc object proposed,
having ac area of between 300 to
400 acres.
The unhealthy location of the pre?
sent Executive mansion is a suffi?
cient reason for another site, though
its modest dimensions and architec?
ture seem to us more in keeping with
republican simplicity than an edifice
more spacious ??d o tn toi y If we
build a palace, who knows, but thc
next thing, we may make a king? Thc
present building is, however* so much
out of repair, that it might be cheaper
to build a new ono at onen. The sums
expended, for repairs would put up a
very decent edifice. $G,000 were ap?
propriated for that object in ISO] ;
about 10,000 in 18G2; 7,000 in 1863;
12,000 in 1864, to re-build the stable;
besides $6,000 the. .same year for re?
pairing, refitting and re-furnishing
the President's summer residence at
the Soldier's Home. These appro?
priations, in addition to those; for
furniture for the White House,
amount, in the. last four years, to
$75,000, and the Committee tm Ap?
propriations, during the present ses?
sion, announce that a further expen?
diture of $30,000 for furniture must
be made forthwith.
It would be well enough to build
an Executive mansion which will not
be in such constant need of repairs,
and to have plain, simple and strong
furniture, able to stand the wear and
tear of the multitudinous visitors,
who it seems'regard the dwelling and
furniture as their own property, and j
do what they choose with their own. j
