They would ppiear to have been created by nature in a reakish and Irresponsible mood. One might imagine them to properly belong in some Dther world than this, only hall Ulive as theT seem and assming such extraordinary and1 nren absurd forms. Certain naturalists have imagined that they must be relics of a vegeta. tion belonging to a period long prior to the ileolopment of the plant life famil r to the present generation. Their characteristic pnes. entitling them to the name of vege- table hedgehogs, accentuate thetr impossibil. ity as contemporary species. 'lbe larger rorms, some towering to fty feet in eight and other individuals weighing a ion or more. plentifuly adorn the Mexican ladiacape, which in imany parts obtain an spect extremely weird from these astonishing Iowths. That country, in fact. contains three- rourths of the entire number of varieties known. Nature provides the cacti with spines n order to save them from being eaten by aninals. Horses are very fond of them and will frequently devour them, after kicking ofi he prickly surface with their boots. Thee are few known plants which afford mch beautiful examples of symmetrical struct- are as the 'mammillnria" group of cacti, many Kf which resemble exquisite pieces of mechan- sa finished with the utmost minuteness and securacy. Others might be imagined to have andergone a kind of crystallization, their whole mrface being frosted over in geometrical pat- erns. Of them the eelebrated botanist. Lind- ey, said: "Gentle reader, hast tion ever seen in a display of fireworks a crowd of wheels all a motion at once, crossing each other inevery firection. and canst thou fancy those whcels rrested by some magic power, th-eir rays re- lined, but their fires- extinguished-t Then sweyest thou conceive the curious beauty of this ittie herb, a plant so unlike all others that we would fain beleve it the reanimated spirit of a race that flourished in former ages with those tideous monsters whose bones alone remain to tell the history of their existence in the quar- r*ie of our sandstone, slate and clay." It is from a species of cactus that cochineal is obtained, and for the purpose of gathering ,rom it the insects so valuable in commerce treat estate* are planted with it in the West Lanlies. Algeria, the Canary Islands and India. rhe pinuts are aet out in rows. trimmed to the saight of four or live feet. In August or Rep- easber of each year is the season for what is ailed the "vowig," when the field handi attach to the cacti by means of thorns leaves movered with female tnigs, which are thus left in order that they nay produce their young. 1he atter quickly swarm over the plants, from which they ar- resoved four monthi Ater with blunt knives. This process is a tedious one. 70.030 being required to make a pound.

The old library was the wonder and admiration of my boyhood, and was supposed to be ample for the accommodation of the collection, then looked upon as complete. . The need of more space became apparent, as additions were being constantly made. and in the magnificent pile in which the university will And "ample space large enough" for some years to come pro- viion was naade for a library commeasurate with the growth of the institution. Mr. Peltz when he designed the university building made special provision for this great seed, and in the southeast corner of the third story a hall was provided for this storeboose of knowl- edge. bus the straitened cirnastances of the collage when this great building was om- pleted rendered delay in the prelain tion of the library aluost indeflnite. At the oclebra- tion of the centeninial of the college Father Richards, the rector, announced that Mr. E. Francis Higgs had volunteered to orovide the funds to tit up the library ini the mot approved manner in memory of his fatber and brother.

He translated frmA the tpanish fer private distribution some rare manuscripts lie lad obtained rela- tive to the early history of this country. The brother of Mr. liggs was a scholar ani Mr. E. Fiancis Riggs is a gentleman of thorough scholarly attainments. This appropriate me- morial is now finished, at a coat of #7.000, and a more beautiful library cannot be -found any- where. More elaborate there may be, but for the purposes of a library, embellished with taste aid skill, I do not think the Riggs library can be excelled. the plans for the execution of this work was submitted by Mr. Paul J. 1eltz, the architect of the national congessional library. He proceeded with the work, and after some de- lays, incident to the prosecutionof such an un- dertaking. after two years' labor it was com- pleted, and now conrins the collection of rare and valued works which has been from time to time accumulating during the long years of the college's existence. A VAST MALL OF MAoyrrrcEsT DIXMEsIowsU. The library is a vast hall of magnificent dimensions, forty feet wide by sixty feet long and thirty-two feet high from floor to ceiling. The center portion, or remiing room, is open and unobsti ucted, affording a full view of the sixteen columnal upright. Out trom the cen- ter of the liorary there are twelvo alcove spacee, and theme twelve spaces are subdivided uito four stories, thus creating forty-eight alcoves. Ataircuses lead up and connect with these upper galleries. Above the top alcoves there is a cornice, which terminates with a glass ceiling. Two skylights supply the amplest light for all the upper alcoves. and the eight large windows. divided into sashes by mullions and transome, are in geometrical designs. All the posts and nprights and gallery floors are of iron and the doors are of slate siaby. The shelves are of Clitornia redwood. In the cornice eight of the columunal uprights carry coats-of-arms, the iliggs family arms, the col- lege shield and the shield of the Society of Jesus. and the national shield and coai-f- arms with the tootto, -E planbus unum." The emulazoning or painting in heraldic colors ian been donc under the supervision of experts in heraldry. the United States shield being kindly furnished by Mr. ievellon H. Brown of the De- partmnt of State, an alumnus of the college. 1here are many points of artistic interest in this beautiful hall. The grotesque figures from the nimal kingdom ornhate-ntirg the window muiiion4 are by Mr. Henry J. liscott, sculptor, and the capitals by 31r. Moreau. The charms of the whole is the exquisite decoration, which is a masterpiece of its kind, the tones so blended that, rich as are the litishings, they do not dazzle, but satisfy the artistic eye. The library huf a shelf cal:aciiv for I0,0j00 books, and if the friends of the unaversity will emulate the liberality of Mr. Laggs these shelves will not onig remain enpty. The whole of the work has been suamirably executed, and the plans of the ac- conaphshed architec: fully carried to comple- tion by our own citizens. The iron work is b Mr. E. L. Dent, carpenter work by Mr. J. 11. Kid- well, sheet nietal work by Whyte bros., tale door- ing by ilaywood a itutchiuson. in all of which they have excelled. Through the princely generosity of Mr. E. Francis logge as a tribute to the memory of his father ant; brother this venerable institution of learning is eaabled to present to those who visit it one of the most commodious, as it is one of the most beautiful, repositories. of books in the country. The llev. Mr. 3lulvaney, the libraitan. will be pleased to extend to all who visit the university a cordini wel-onwe to the library. Too much praiase can- not be. bestowed ou Atr. P'elta, whose study of this branch of his profession wdll be demon- strated in the great national library. TUE arrroxAL Joenlxam or 1825. Enjoying the beauty of this new home for books I came across two vo'lumesi of the a- hsosai Jos-nal, published by Cot. Peter Force. of the years 1825-224t. The very first page of the Journal of April 23, 18:215, contains law pro- ceedIngs agninet the corporation of Washing- ton by Chastain Clarke to compel the payment of a prize of *l100.0% he drew In a lotter3 chartered by Congressftor the purpose of build- ing a "Lascastria school house. penitentiary and town halL" The case was removed to Alexandria and the celebrated William Wirt and Mr. Swann appeared for plaintiff and Gten. Walter Jones for the defendant. the defense being that the corvoration had sold all their rights to a Mr. Gileupio for $10,000, who me. samed all risks. The Jouna appears to have been the organ of Mr. John Quancy Adams administraion. and the editorials are full of comeudation of It and the President. Much space I-s devoted to the defense of Mr. Clay, then Secretary of State, from the charge of bargain and corruption made against him for having voted for Adam, and then accepted opice under him. George Kremer of Pennsylvania, the tool, as Mr. Clay always ehr eto Mr; Buchanan, is here stated to re writlen a lettce to Mr. Clay withdrawing the charge and apologizing for It, whichi letter. the Jour-naj syMr.Ingham, Member of Congreas,of Pean-. sylvania obtained and suppressed; and in a lter Josunl a reply appears froms Mr. Inghans adamitting he had the letter. but aisdald it.

If it was built it has entirely escaped my mem- ory. Te only museum I remember was Pauley's, and that I think was in a wooden building on the reservation on 13th street, built by Mr.Tanderlyn, the painter of the es- barkation of the l'aritans is, the rotunda of the Capitol for a panorama. At this early day the project of a canal to connect the Atlantie and the Pacile was being discussed in Europe, and a movement for a joint survey was inaugurated. One of the most conspienous uerhants at that time and for years belore was Mr. Raphael loas. He was the only Hebrew in the city. anol a amn of very extensive learning and nireraally esteemejL He was a daily visitor to the oee Of the Aaoanal lnel?*Nyer and a friend of Me. Gales, who regarded him an a very extesordis- ary man. Not long aince a gent-e-m in- quired of me if I remembered a pesne, named Itaphael Jones. as he said his family, makingsome repairs to the family vault, found in it a coffin with that name upon it and none of them could remember any rela- tive or friend of that name. I cannot remem- ber wben he died, but it must have been forty or 11fty years ago. The remains were in the vault of the Keyworth tmidy and I have no doubt Mr. Keyworth and Mr. Jones were friends, as they were cotemporaries in busi- noes. PUBmIc irnOvx3m0Ts. There are several advertisemeets inviting proposals for building setiesm of tb national road, the project which was one of Mr. Clay's advancement and upon which he deUvered several speeches.in advocating the measures of internal improvements by the general govern- ment. The Chesapeake and Ohio canal was then being pushed, and the commiesioners were samuel Harrison Smith. the president at the branch Bank of the United States and the orig- inal proprietor of the Kationasl Initepligemer, Anthony C. Casanore of Alexandria and Geen- cot Smith of Georgetown. On the 30th June, 1825. the theater, then on Louisiana avenue near 6th stree, was opened for a brief aeason with the rand spectacular and musical drama of "Der uts," with selections from d opera.

Over a column in the Nationea Joura is occupied with an account of the presentation by the state of Virginia of a sword to Gen. cott at the state capital with impoasg parade and ceremonies, and the trial of Commodore David Porter, the father of the late admiral, for some interference with the local authorities at Porto Rico in violation of inter- national law. A letter dated irom Meridian Hill, where Commodore Porter resided, having built the old musmot of which but little remains, asked a sopenion of public epinion until be has been heard, through his counsel. Gen. Walter Jones. There were innumerabs lotteries in these days, and Vates & MeLatire, who were one- ceeded in businesa by Mr. John W. Maury, ad- vertised "the Washington Canal Letet." In one of these lotteries the late Dr. John i. iilake drew a prize of 430.003, and it wne for sone year before the courts here, the doctor having sued the corporation for that sue. Joam F. umi.

enorBsQes Cert.Most strange and grotesque of the plants at

6he Botanie Garden are tho cacti. They wouldppiear to have been created by nature in areakish and Irresponsible mood. One mightimagine them to properly belong in someDther world than this, only hall Ulive as theTseem and assming such extraordinary and1nren absurd forms. Certain naturalists haveimagined that they must be relics of a vegeta.tion belonging to a period long prior to theileolopment of the plant life famil r to thepresent generation. Their characteristicpnes. entitling them to the name of vege-table hedgehogs, accentuate thetr impossibil.ity as contemporary species. 'lbe largerrorms, some towering to fty feet ineight and other individuals weighing aion or more. plentifuly adorn the Mexicanladiacape, which in imany parts obtain anspect extremely weird from these astonishingIowths. That country, in fact. contains three-rourths of the entire number of varietiesknown. Nature provides the cacti with spinesn order to save them from being eaten byaninals. Horses are very fond of them andwill frequently devour them, after kicking ofihe prickly surface with their boots.Thee are few known plants which affordmch beautiful examples of symmetrical struct-

are as the 'mammillnria" group of cacti, manyKf which resemble exquisite pieces of mechan-sa finished with the utmost minuteness andsecuracy. Others might be imagined to haveandergone a kind of crystallization, their wholemrface being frosted over in geometrical pat-erns. Of them the eelebrated botanist. Lind-ey, said: "Gentle reader, hast tion ever seenin a display of fireworks a crowd of wheels alla motion at once, crossing each other ineveryfirection. and canst thou fancy those whcelsrrested by some magic power, th-eir rays re-lined, but their fires- extinguished-t Thensweyest thou conceive the curious beauty of thisittie herb, a plant so unlike all others that wewould fain beleve it the reanimated spirit of arace that flourished in former ages with thosetideous monsters whose bones alone remain totell the history of their existence in the quar-r*ie of our sandstone, slate and clay."It is from a species of cactus that cochinealis obtained, and for the purpose of gathering,rom it the insects so valuable in commercetreat estate* are planted with it in the WestLanlies. Algeria, the Canary Islands and India.rhe pinuts are aet out in rows. trimmed to thesaight of four or live feet. In August or Rep-easber of each year is the season for what isailed the "vowig," when the field handiattach to the cacti by means of thorns leavesmovered with female tnigs, which are thus leftin order that they nay produce their young.1he atter quickly swarm over the plants,from which they ar- resoved four monthiAter with blunt knives. This process is atedious one. 70.030 being required to make apound. Finally the insecte are killed by im-aersion in boiling water and dried in the sun,lint being the eonditionin which uey are ex-porteLOie of the most surprising curiosities In thisbrauch of the vegetable kingdoi is the "Old

don Cactus," which derives its name from theiihery white hairs that cover the upper part oft stima, giving it a cijar reisiiblance tohe hoary head of an Igtei man. The lin area realty soft, weak spineq.

The old library was thewonder and admiration of my boyhood,and was supposed to be ample for theaccommodation of the collection, thenlooked upon as complete. . The need of morespace became apparent, as additions were beingconstantly made. and in the magnificent pilein which the university will And "ample spacelarge enough" for some years to come pro-viion was naade for a library commeasuratewith the growth of the institution. Mr. Peltzwhen he designed the university building madespecial provision for this great seed, and in thesoutheast corner of the third story ahall was provided for this storeboose of knowl-edge. bus the straitened cirnastances ofthe collage when this great building was om-pleted rendered delay in the prelaintion ofthe library aluost indeflnite. At the oclebra-tion of the centeninial of the college FatherRichards, the rector, announced that Mr. E.Francis Higgs had volunteered to orovide thefunds to tit up the library ini the motapproved manner in memory of hisfatber and brother. 'The elder Mr.liiggs was a lover of books nad aman of extentire reading. He translatedfrmA the tpanish fer private distributionsome rare manuscripts lie lad obtained rela-tive to the early history of this country. Thebrother of Mr. liggs was a scholar ani Mr. E.Fiancis Riggs is a gentleman of thoroughscholarly attainments. This appropriate me-morial is now finished, at a coat of #7.000, anda more beautiful library cannot be -found any-where. More elaborate there may be, but forthe purposes of a library, embellished withtaste aid skill, I do not think theRiggs library can be excelled. theplans for the execution of thiswork was submitted by Mr. Paul J. 1eltz, thearchitect of the national congessional library.He proceeded with the work, and aftersome de-lays, incident to the prosecutionof such an un-dertaking. after two years' labor it was com-pleted, and now conrins the collection of rareand valued works which has been from timeto time accumulating during the long years ofthe college's existence.

A VAST MALL OF MAoyrrrcEsT DIXMEsIowsU.The library is a vast hall of magnificent

dimensions, forty feet wide by sixty feet longand thirty-two feet high from floor to ceiling.The center portion, or remiing room, is openand unobsti ucted, affording a full view of thesixteen columnal upright. Out trom the cen-ter of the liorary there are twelvo alcovespacee, and theme twelve spaces are subdivideduito four stories, thus creating forty-eightalcoves. Ataircuses lead up and connect withthese upper galleries. Above the top alcovesthere is a cornice, which terminates with aglass ceiling. Two skylights supply theamplest light for all the upper alcoves. andthe eight large windows. divided into sashesby mullions and transome, are in geometricaldesigns. All the posts and nprights and galleryfloors are of iron and the doors are of slate siaby.The shelves are of Clitornia redwood. In thecornice eight of the columunal uprights carrycoats-of-arms, the iliggs family arms, the col-lege shield and the shield of the Society ofJesus. and the national shield and coai-f-arms with the tootto, -E planbus unum." Theemulazoning or painting in heraldic colors ianbeen donc under the supervision of experts inheraldry. the United States shield being kindlyfurnished by Mr. ievellon H. Brown of the De-partmnt of State, an alumnus of the college.1here are many points of artistic interest inthis beautiful hall. The grotesque figuresfrom the nimal kingdom ornhate-ntirg thewindow muiiion4 are by Mr. Henry J. liscott,sculptor, and the capitals by 31r. Moreau.The charms of the whole is the exquisitedecoration, which is a masterpiece of its kind,

the tones so blended that, rich as are thelitishings, they do not dazzle, but satisfy theartistic eye. The library huf a shelf cal:aciivfor I0,0j00 books, and if the friends of theunaversity will emulate the liberality of Mr.Laggs these shelves will not onig remainenpty. The whole of the work has beensuamirably executed, and the plans of the ac-conaphshed architec: fully carried to comple-tion by our own citizens. The iron work is bMr. E. L. Dent, carpenter work by Mr. J. 11. Kid-well, sheet nietal work by Whyte bros., tale door-ing by ilaywood a itutchiuson. in all of whichthey have excelled. Through the princelygenerosity of Mr. E. Francis logge as a tributeto the memory of his father ant; brother thisvenerable institution of learning is eaabled topresent to those who visit it one of the mostcommodious, as it is one of the most beautiful,repositories. of books in the country. The llev.Mr. 3lulvaney, the libraitan. will be pleased toextend to all who visit the university a cordiniwel-onwe to the library. Too much praiase can-not be. bestowed ou Atr.

TUE arrroxAL Joenlxam or 1825.Enjoying the beauty of this new home for

books I came across two vo'lumesi of the a-hsosai Jos-nal, published by Cot. Peter Force.of the years 1825-224t.

of Mr. John Quancy Adams administraion.and the editorials are full of comeudation ofIt and the President. Much space I-s devoted tothe defense of Mr. Clay, then Secretary of State,from the charge of bargain and corruptionmade against him for having voted for Adam,and then accepted opice under him.

At this early day theproject of a canal to connect theAtlantie and the Pacile was beingdiscussed in Europe, and a movement for ajoint survey was inaugurated.

I cannot remem-ber wben he died, but it must have been fortyor 11fty years ago. The remains were in thevault of the Keyworth tmidy and I have nodoubt Mr. Keyworth and Mr. Jones werefriends, as they were cotemporaries in busi-noes.
