C?ttfMBTA, :'& c. ?undiy -Morniri?r, Joly 17, 1870. Til? Cuiuury ?vt Large. That it is the duty of tho journalist to lift his thoughts above the plain of local politics ond to take within his view the whole country, is a proposition that few will deny, liet us, in this spirit, consi? der*, in u concise way, how mutters staud. No thinking man oau fail to be impressed with the material greatness of these United States. With o territory stretch? ing from the lakes to the gulf and from ocean to ocean-with numerous States in full development .and others in em? bryo- with a people that illustrate in themselves, maby of the'virtues that per? main .elsewhere to /separate nationalities with magnificent rivera and beautiful lakes-r-with vast prairies and grand forests-with canals and railroads-with resources of all kinds, including mines of metale precious, os well as of thc .baser sort-who can deny that thc future of the conntry is grand in its possibili? ties? li?t us ask now, what is wanting to make this a prosperous and happy land? It is necessary /that to the bless? ings and gifts of-?Providence, there bo added the wisdom and virtue of'the peo? ple and their thiers. Wo need good government. We need a political sys? tem that. shall make political Develop? ment and strength not inconsistent with the.rigkwj pf. States.'and; the liberties of individuals. We need a, political ma? chinery that shall vfisaly pvovput popular tiScesse? and promote peace and security, and at the same time ba vu the necessary power to euforco thc laws and secure order. Nor must our fellow-citizens of the South foil to bear in miud that the poli? tics of tho country, beyond South Caro? lina, is a matter of great moment to them. The South dreamed of indepen? dence. She aspired to separate nation? ality. She fought grandly for it. Her women endured and toiled much for tho great prize. Our best blood flowed liko water. But defeat elispellcd tho dream, aud at Appomattox the Hunt li saw that the Confederacy had ceased to exist. What, now, is the position of our sec? tion? We have again become part and parcel of tho United States. Our for? tunes ore, therefore, more or less linked with the fortunes of thc United States. Such being the case, let ns seek to exert our rightful influence in the Union, of which we form a part. Let us keep ourselves in accord with that national organization, which, in our judgment, is seeking, by a policy that wo approve, to promote the, good of the country. We are aware of the feelings in which our people, in mauy cases, indulge with respect to Federal matters. It is to let them severely ulouei on thc ground that they do uot concern them. But they do concern us, and this greatly. We must have a Federal policy as well as a Stato policy. And we have very decided views upon this subject. Of the two great parties that uow divide our people in a national sense, it is thc Dcmocrtic party that, in our judgment, seeks to make the proper impress in tho main upon thc character and policy of the Govern? ment. Wo do not desire to seo this party wage war against negro suffrage, for this were a bootless struggle-a mat tor that bas passed beyond the sphere of debate, and we are willing to let it go upou ita trial. But as respects the spirit nud the attitude of the Democracy upon most of the great questions that pertain to our uatiouid interests, it is an organi? zation that commcuds itself to our hearty recoguition. As for tho Republican, or radical party, we oppose it at homo and abroad, and if the National Democracy stood upon no other ground than opposition to this political incubus, that would be enough to commend it to us. The truth is, reform is not the less needed in n national than in a local way. Wo aro for reform at home and abroad. Al home, wc strike for good aud honest go? vernment upon the basis of a liberal recognition of the claims of all classes of our people. Wo move fairly for the relief of South Carolina, aud disdain not the co-operation of good aud true men of all parties. Abroad, we inovo also for reform upon tho basis suggestetl ia the address of the Democratic mem? bers of Congress. And whilst we bow to the popular decrco that puts {jeneral suffrage in tho fundamental law of tho laud, we would promptly link it with such a representative reform as shall make it not subversive of tho free iusti tutious that wo profess to havo in this land. REFORM, then, ?3 tho word, and whilst it includes tho State, let the cir clo widen nutil it embraces the co intry, aud gives us a redeemed Stato aud a republic saved.

The scones at, tho Cop i toi from day to day aa the Beacon of Congrega is drawing to a.-close, in most interesting. Not withitanding; the rapid progress made darlhg'tho last few days nr legislation, there will still remain lots of unfinished business which tho lobbyists pretend to say is vastly important to tho nation, thongh the people hore, generally, feel will b_car time for consideration, und not suffer in consequence of delay over till next session. . Among.thc one or two hundred bills now upon the Speaker's table, there are tho Southern Pacific Railroad bill; the New York and Washington Air Line Railroad bill; the New Apportionment bill determining the nnmber of M. Cs for the next Congress, and bills granting land subsidies to different railroads in the South aud West. It is possible that the Senate may ask of the House a post? ponement of adjournment for a few days for the purpose of .concluding ac? tion on the Yenesuola question ; the abo? lition of polygamy in Utah; the lud?an bill including definite action on the ques? tion on the validity) bf . Indian treaties, aue? the admission of New Mexico as a Stato nuder the name of Lincoln. There has been no inconsiderable in? terest felt here among all classes of peo plo as to thc result of thc Howard inves? tigation. Fernando Wood, of New York, somo three montbs since, preferred most astounding charges against General Howard on account of tho way ho used Freedman's Bureau funds while Presi? dent of that Bureau. General Howard tho organizer of the Howard University, locatod in Washington, and now Presi? dent of that institution, has become identified with tho interests of Washing? ton; aud thc mauly and enterprising course pursued by him during his resi? dence hero has ingratiated him in tho favor of the people. Your correspondent himself kuows of nothing of tho verdict of the committee having his case in charge. Tho rumors, however, is that thc ninjorit}- of the committee havo ex? perienced no little trouble iu agreeing upou a report. The minority, .consist? ing of Democrats, will, of course, present a,minority report, which it is thought will sustain nearly all of thc charges first preferred by Mr. Wood. The report is expected either to day or to-morrow. If tho Capitol movers will let us alone we will make a considerable city ol' Washington in a few years, aud one which the country will bo proud of; but every DOW and then they raiae a howl and tho timid and old fogy .portion of our population are ,'so frightened that they come to a stand ?till. These draw? backs retard progress, but, of course, cannot stop it. We have made mauy improvements during the last eight years. Before the war Washington was a Southern oity. Wo had slaves, a slave trade and all of its concomitants, among which wore a gaudy chivalry, a delicious satisfaction i*n thiugs as they were, and a wastery inactivity in all cases of import. When tho war came on wo had only Pennsylvania aveuuo paved, and that was the poorest of its kind. In tho early part of the war it was not an uncommon thing to see Government wagons stuck in thc mud upon F street, between the patent and post office in the very heart of tho city, and your correspondent baa soon upon Fourteenth street, our fash? ionable drive, holes scooped out by thc wheels of vehicles uutil they were so deep and long that when a wagon went down into ono of them the top was just visablo abovo tho surface This was re? medied some during tho war. Siuco thc war a great improvement has been made. A number of our avenues have beeu paved, sewers and gutters have been made, and a different and more modern class of residences have been erected, Our population- has been iucreascd ir numbers to about doublo, aud there has beou au infusion of Northern and West ern energy, which is highly refreshing aud interesting. . Cougrcss has seemed more alive to oui interests during tho present session thai] ever before, and while they have not passed a groat many bills which will be? nefit us, still they have reported a num? ber aud manifested a disposition to dc so. Tho President has signed tho bil! for re-paviDg Pennsylvania avenue, and we hope that before Congress again as? sembles, wo will have the most beautiful street in the world, paved with wood, tili only material which should ever be usec upon a fino drive. Admiral Dahlgreen has been a resi? dent of Washington tho most part of tin timo for nearly thirty years, aud hu suddcu death, yeserday, was most pain ful to tho citizens here, with whom ht has been so long intimately connected. He was estecmod as a gentleman of un exceptionable character, aud his sympa thy for tho poor was best appreciated bj tho thousands in indigent circumstance' for whom ho yearly contributed to sup port. This is considered the dull season it the patent office. Tho bot season i? rather against invention., of all kinds Tbo muscles are of less elasticity, tin physical parts of man generally degene rates, and tho mind consequently is want ing tho vim and ouorgy necesssary to in veut. But there aro still other reason why tho patent businoss is duller at thi seasou of tho year than nuy other: Tb agriculturalists, with all the help possibl to obtain, aro busy attending to harvest iug their crops, and have no time to cou s?mate iuveulious, let alone the prepara tioDB of modela for the patent offlee. Pa? tents iaaued for agricultural implements aud improvements are vastly important to th? progresa of oar country, and are increasing in numbers every year.. . I will, af toi' Congress adjourns, give your farmer readers an interesting account of ?patents on agricultural implements, and tho yearly proportion as compared with others issued during the last fiscal year. There are nearly one-third of all the applications for patents rejected, and the models of the rejected cases are retained by the patent oilier?, and put away in ap? propriate eases for future reference, for tho benefit of the office. There baa been 7,111 patenta issued from the offico du? ring thc last half of the fiscal year just ended, among them, 2S3 are re-issues; 4S5 designs, and 94 are for extension. Caveats filed, 1,875.

A BRAIN ATMOSPH?RE.-A new theory is propounded to explain why one hap? pens to think of persons he has not seen for years just before meeting them. A ! similar phenomenon often bappcus when one has impressions of the death of friends who may bo thousands of miles away, and subsequently learui? that they died at that particular moment. A writer in the London Spectator thinks that there isa braiu atmosphere extending through spaco more subtle than the air, or evon than the electric fluid. As tho undula? tions of the air occasion sound, and tho undulations of the ether give the im? pression of light, so the undulations of this braiu atmosphere may couvcy im? pressions between sympathetic niimls. The theory is a very ingenious oue, aud there are certainly many facts which it will explain very satisfactorily, but these different atmospheres must be curiously constituted, if so many different vibra trations, moving from so mauy different directious, do not inierfere with one an? other. The theory of light, with its hundreds of millions of ethereal vibra? tions every second? through the vast space between the earth and the suu, or between the earth and a distan s nebuhe, has always been a tough morsel for our mental digestion. Thu masters of sci encejay down the law, and we submit, but our faith is weak. And now comes a new atmosphere, with a new 6ense of motions. ?It is a little too much for us, wo confess, and looks "aw'a muddle," os the world did to poor Stephen Black? well. With vibrations of air, vibrations of ether, vibrations of braiu atmos? phere, aud vibrations of electricity, (we supposo that must vibrate, too,) things will get mixed up badly. 'Tis no wonder insanity is increasing, for so many sorts of vibrations are enough to addle any weak brain, and make it impossiblo to distinguish ono from t'other. We must beg our scientific friends to bold up, aud keep their discoveries of any more at? mosphere to themselves. We shall bo crushed under tho load, if the number ia increased. There is a limit to human endurance.'-Providence Journal. EXTRAVAGANCE IX NORTH CAROLINA. A pamphlet issued in North Carolina gives nu exhibit of the reckless expendi? ture of the people's mouey b}' tho plun? dering set now iu possession of thc gov? ernment of that Stato. Tho cost of car? rying on the State government for oue year of Worth's conservative administra? tion, 186G-7, was $364,679.54; while that of one yetir of Holden's rule, 18GS '9, was 8746,860.40, showing that Iloldeu spent in one year ?332,180.46 moro than was spent by Worth the year before. Tho conservative Legislature of 180G-'7 had only thirteeu men to wait upon it. Tbs radical Legislature requires thirty six. The total expenses of the General Assembly of 1366-7 were 8llS.392.77; those of tho Geueral Assembly for 1868 '9 were $227,392.56. Theso figures aro not gotten up by mero guess-work for au election document, but aro taken from tho radical State Auditor's report. Tnii COLORED CADET.-General O. O. Howard has written a letter to J. W. Smith, thc colored cadet at West Point, whose complaint of hardships and rough treatment was recently published.

To be a soldier, tho General says, ono need not only bo bravo in battle, but have au abundance of genuiue fortitude. EX-PRESIDENT DAVIS.-Tho editor of an Augusta (Arkansas) paper saw Hon. Jefferson Davis tho other day at a hotel in Memphis. He says: "Tho last time we saw him was down in Georgia, riding thinly by our thin lines, roviowiug. Aud thero ho sits-a gray-headed Confeder? ate postngo stamp-eating his supper. Ho wasn't iusuriug lives when we be? longed to him." Laurence Sterno, who never aspired to the reputation of a special morality, onco wrote: "I should never drink; I eau not afford it; it costs me three days -thc first in sinning, tho second in so boring, and tho third in repenting." An erring Indiana hen was recently fouud in the back part of a hardwaro store, whero tho misguided fowl bad struggled for threo weeks, trying to hatch ont half a dozen white porcelain door kuobs.
