"No, pa, no. That's not Washington. Why that man is just like any body else!" Our Capital.--Well, I have seen Washington, and been disappointed. Have seen, for the first time, this noted centre of wealth and wisdom, of power and influence, belonging to that famous old gentleman, called "Uncle Sam." John Randolph designated this same place, "the city of magnificent distances." Since then it has no doubt partially filled up. Yet still it may fairly be defined by the young lady's comparison of her admirer's beard. Dandy must have whiskers. That he would. The entire...
