WASHINGTON, March 6.
Tile New Adnainistrotion--Th CONFERENCE.-The
Anti- Slavery Party-The Cq6inet-Remouals,
dc.
The new administration have taken charge of
the federal government, and we have, in the char
acter of the President and of his advisers, and
also in the principles laid down in the inaugural,
assurances that it will be wise, prudent and nation
al.
The compromise of 1850, which has been &C
cepted by the people as obligatory upon them, is
fully endorsed and will be sustained by the new
administration. The declarations of the Inaugural
on this subject are strong frank, and explicit as
could be desired, and will confirm public conf
dence in the stability and harmony of the Union.
1t is very plain that no anti-federal, anti-const-
tutiona clique will control General Pierce, al
though he is State rights man. 1t is not i'm
probable that his policy on this subject will be put
to test The anti-slavery party is not dead, and
it will first show itself again in opposition to the
execution of the fugitive slave law, and under the
pretext of regard for State rights.
The new Senate will be organised tomorrow.
There may arise debateable questions upon the
right of certain members to their seats. Mr.. Ben
iamin's right is to be contested on the ground that
he is not naturalized citizen; but presume that
the objection will not be sustained by the facts
The right of a state governor to fill vacancy oc-
casioned by the failure of the legislature to elect
may not be brought in question, for Mr.. Dobbin,
as soon as nominated for the cabinet will, of course
resign his seat. The Governors of Rhode Island
and Mississippi have not made appointments The
question is one that ought to be settled and is
to be hoped that it will now arise.
The cabinet nominations will be made to-mor
row. There is no well grounded uncertainty as tt
them.
The determination of Gen. Pierce's policy il
regard to removals and appointments was received
with marked applause by all who heard his ad
dress, and will, no doubt, be approved by all wh'
read it. 1t will justify pretty general sweep
without invidious discrimination. IoN

What was done in Congress.

The Washington papers of Saturday do not con-
tain official list of the titles of the acts passed
by Congress, but we learn from the Republic that
the civil and diplomatic bill, which was passed,
raises the salaries of the Vice President and the
heads of the Departments, from six to eight thou
sand dollars per annum; appropriates one hun
dred thousand dollars towards Supplying Washing
ton with better supply of water twenty thcus-
and dollars for the repair of the Long Bridges, and
thirty thousand for a bridge at the Little Falls J;
and creates the Office of Assistant Secretary of
State, with salary of three thousand dollars per
annum.
All the general appropriation bills, were passed;
and, in addition to other measures of Importance,
the bill establishing the Territorial Government of
Washington.
We learn from other sources that the army bill
makes among other appropriations the following
Remounting four companies of Light Artillery,
$18 50O Defence of San Francisco, 500, 900 !;
Tortugas Island Florida, 100, 900 Fort Taylor
Key West, $4,000 Fort Pulaski, Ca, 20, 900 /;
Fort Sumpter, S. c., 10000; Fort Carroll, Sol
ers' Point Nd, $4,000; Pea Patch, Del, $780,
600; Fort Knox, Penobscott, Me-, 55, 600; Fort
Warren, Boston, 45,OoO Fort Winthrop, Boston,
90, 600.
The sum of $4,000 was also appropriated for
a survey and exploration of route for railroad
from the Mississippi river to the Pacific ocean, by
the Typographical engineers, and such other per-
sons as the Secretary of War, under the direction
of the President, may deem necessary.
Bills were passed to incorporate the Sisters Of
Visitation in the District of Columbia-to prevent,
in certain cases. failure or delay of justice in the
courts of the District of Columbia-establishng
the territorial government of Washington and au-
thorising the incorporation Of the Georgetown and
Catochie Railroad company.
What was not done or rather what has beer
left unfinished, would occupy too much space to de-
tail. Suffice it to say that among the bills mo-
) disposed of was one appropriating land scrip il
full and final satisfaction of Virginia military boun
ty land warrants. A joint resolution to supply
the Washington City Juvenile Guard with arm
was not finally acted upon, and motion was lief
pending to reconsider the bill in favor of the me
mortal of the defenders of Baltimore, praying 70
further grant of land in consideration of thei
services. The resolution to procure ice boats 70
the Potomac, the bill to amend the charter of tn
e city of Washington, the bill to incorporate tn
Pioneer Manufacturing Company of Georgetown
the bill establishing retired list of army officers
: the bill establishing private bonded warehouse:
It the bill to reorganise the U. S. Navy, and the bi
It giving further remedies to patenees, were all lie
= without final action, with large number of 9th
