Y iicbting is a very elegant sport, but so costly 
that only gentlemen with bottomless purses can 
indulge in it. As to the recent trial of speed 
across the Atlantic, which has excited so much 
comment, in the first place It was a foolhardy 
piece of business, entailing a needless sacrifice 
of life ; and in the next place the feat performed 
was nothing wonderful, as regards speed, for old 
Newfoundland fishermen smile at It and tell of 
dozens of instances In which it has been sur¬ 
passed by smaller craft not half so well manned

From Waidiiiigtoii, 
The work of rebuilding that portion of the 
Smithsonian Institute building destroyed by the 
Are of 1865 in progressing quite rapidly under 
the direction of the building committee, consist¬ 
ing of Chief Justice Chase, General Delafield, 
Professor Henry and Mayor Wailiteii. The new 
roof will be constructed entirely of wrought iron, 
with a slate covering fastened with copper wire, 
forming a room at- olutely Are proof. This prin¬ 
ciple of construction has been carried out uni¬ 
formly, and much has been done to strengthen 
the weakened walls of the building and towers. 
An important improvement has been effected by 
the erection of substantial iron stairs from the 
northern orjmain entrance, The expenses of all 
the work are defrayed by the savings arising 
from the limited income of the Institute fund, 
no assistance bavins been received from the 
Government, although a large amount of Gov¬ 
ernment properly is stored In the building. The 
payment oi' such extra expenses is a heavy tax 
upon the fund created by its English donor for 
scientific purposes, and this fact accounts for 
the apparent want of alacrity in prosecuting the 
scientific labors.

Death of Washington Hunt. 
Ex-Gov. Washington Hint died in New 
York ou the morning of the 2d. He was born 
at Windham, Greene county, Aug. 5th, 1811, was 
admitted to the bar at Lockport in 1834. and in 
1886 Was apnointed First Judge of Niagara Co. 
In the beginning of his political career he be¬ 
longed to the Democratic party, but afterwards 
joined the Whigs and was elected to Congress 
three times in succession —1848 to 1849. I u 
1849 he was elected State Comptroller, and iu 
1850, receiving a plurality of 262 votes over 
Horatio Seymour, became Governor. In 1802 
he was again a candidate, but was defeated. 
After the dissolution of the old Whig party, 
Mr. IIfnt,|w1io had been a leader of the con 
servative wing, became gradually identilled 
again with the Democratic party, in whose ranks 
he had first entered the field of polities. Of 
late years, however, he has not taken a very 
active part in political contests, except in 1804, 
when he was a delegate to the Chicago Conven¬ 
tion and stumped this Stale in the ensuing 
campaign, lie lived in retiremeut on his farm 
near Lockport, and gave his attention chiefly to 
books and horticulture. He was a prominent 
member oi the Protestant Episcopal church, and 
was- repeatedly a lay delegate to its triennial 
conventions. 
Compliment to an Inventor. 
On Saturday evening, Feb. 2d, a large num¬

assembled at tiie rooms of Prof. C’Lnu, inventor 
of the Aelloscopc, which we described iu the last 
number of the Rural, to bid him good bye on 
the eve of his departure for Europe, whither he 
is going with his instrument designed for exhi¬ 
bition at the Paris Exposition. An elegant 
6upper was provided, toasts offered and congrat¬ 
ulatory speeches made. Prof. Clum gave an 
interesting account of the labors performed 
and the difficulties encountered during the 
quarter of a century he had. given to the work¬ 
ing out of his idea, and acknowledged his 
special obligations to the press of Rochester for 
assistance rendered in bringing his invention 
before the public.
