FROM WASHINGTON.
THE PARTY OF ONE IDEA.


From Our Special Correspondent.
WASHINGTON, Monday, April %, 1856.
This is the most idealess Of Administrations, and
deserves to be expelled from power for its bar
reppess. II has but one thought, and that is
Slavery. To strengthen Slavery where it exists,
ard to provide for its spread where i. does not, is
the only object on which we find any expression of
its activities. In every other respect it sleeps,
save where it may be found pulling the wires of
small politics. Mr.. Marcy is shrewd and not
unwise man, who manages our foreign relations
with commendable sense of propriety, and no
ms an share of ability. Mr. Guthrie watches over
Uncle Sans strong box like any other decent man
who would not choose to be implicated in stealing.
Mr.. Campbell looks after the mail routes,
and Mr.. McClelland oversees the landed
estate. Mr.. Dobbn takes care Of hi,
health and attends to the routine of the NAVY mag.
pif,ipg his Office what he can. The President and
the two remaining members of the Cabinet. Jeff.
Davis of the War Department and Caleb Cushing,
Attorney General plan and execute what Ia done
in our domestic relations, well inspire an oc.
casional newspaper splurse on foreign affairs for
bunkun. The central thought of these men. and
the one on which all their activity and that of the
Administration is displayed, is Slavery. Mr..
Pierce uses it as an engine to secure his re
election: Mr.. Gushing as the most ready instrumen
at his hand to perpetuate bis official elevation; and
Mr. Davis is filed with it because be is intensely de.
srous 10 spread the institution, with view to give

TuR HOUSE ON ITS RULES.

The Speaker having on Thursday last decided
that it was competent for the House to act con-
cusively on the bill to refund the Duties imposed

morning, Mr.. WATSON of Ohio moved reconsd-

The California Mails, of April S, were brought
yesterday by the steamer Illinois, from Aspnwsll,
with over $1,900,0OO in gold. The news is not of
special importance. The great drouth of the past
Winter has prevented sufficiency Of water fer
the active operations of the miners, and it is
thought that diminution OF the gold product for
the next few months must be the consequence.

frmed, and interesting particulars 10 addition to
those already received will be found in our columns

Cascades have been attacked, ard every building

THE ALLEGED LAND-WARRANT
FORGERIES.
From Our Ow1 Correspondent
WASHINGTON Wednesda

From Our Ow1 Correspondent
WASHINGTON, Wednesday, April 30, 1856
The recent telegraphic statement that torgeries
of land.warrants for one miuioa acres had been
discovered here, is wholly unfounded. gang of
forgers in these operations were detected at New
Orleans some time ago, who had plans prepared for
large issues and perhaps to the extent repre'ented
but their certificates and apparatus were seized BY
the authorities and consequently the whole scheme
failed. Frauds have doubtless been committed,
but rarely with loss to the Government. lnd'-
viduals are the principal sufferers from forged
assignments, which, with every precaution, can
hardly be prevented. They were more frequent
under the first acts ten years ago than now. The
Courts have held that there is no law for the pun
isbment of forgeries of land.warrants, and this
decision has encouraged depredations. MIR. Nc
Cleand has recently recommended On act cover
ing this defect. The Government has Information
of contemplated frauds which may lead to impor-
ant results; but the ends ofjustice require silence
at present 40 to locality.
New-York daily tribune., 1856-05-01

90 extent commemorate with ths desires Of the
slaSeholdiDg population.
II is In the cultivation and expression and deyeI
oPment of these ideas that the brains Of this Ad-
ministration find their full scope and exclusive
occupation. 1t Is in deridipg and scorufully defy.
ing the generous sentiments Of Freedom, the tran.
quill good sense which objects to the spread of
Slavery on economic grounds, and the promptipgs
of spirit Of philanthropy and justice which de.
cares against it on lofter considerations, that the
pen Of the Administration finds its chief employ.
ment Everything else is neglected to this end.
Comprehensive views Of our national position, re-
lations, necessities and destiny, share no part Of
the attention Of the gentlemen who inspire its
action. What can be done TO compose and tran
ouilize and harnonize the distracting elements of
our national organization, occupies no portion Of
their thoughts. The great material interests OF the
country are wholly overlooked in their specula-
tons No attempt is made to strengthen the foun-
daton of our institutions by inculcating the max
inns of justice, liberty, equality none to nourish
genuine patriotism by showing the value and mag
ntude of our example as liberty-loving people to
the nations in bondsge The Administration has
ignored ts proper function and Legitimate duties,
and entered upon the ignobIe employment of taking
up and petting the institution of African Slavery.
To this institution it devotes itself
1t has espoused its cause with animation and
beariness 1t champions it with messages and
proclumation,. 1t ygilautly proclaims its nten-
ton TO defend every inch Of territory on which it
H.. eL.koo = ,nkar oaaI 10
its further spread 1t denounces all its opponents
az enemies 10 the Union, and those who would pre-
vent its extension into free territory as rebels and
traitors to the Government
In such empleyments il appears to pass its days
and it's nights. Slavery would seem to be the one
topic which occupies its sleeping and It's waking
hours To Slavery everything else is postponed
and deferred. The opinions aud course of the Ad
ministration upon II are made the sole test Of par-
san orthodoxy throughout the party ranks The
party debates in Congress all turn upon the same
hinge.
To soy nothing of the heartess wickedness of
this policy, we contend that it is absurd and dis
gushing. The idea that we have no domestic con-
cern worthy of the attention Of an Administration
but Slavery is little too preposterous. We can
not see that it admits of any question that an Ad-
ministration which can find no more appropriate
occupation for its members its writers, it's orators
and its supporters generally than to be exaltins
and magnifying and carressing, and aiming to
spread an institution that has cursed with igno-
rance and sterility and decay near one half tho
States of the Union, should be dismissed from
power summarily, and with contempt. The dere-
LECTION of duty involved in such course is saffi-
cienty Odious and revolving but the littenesso of it
is deopicable. Us. ?.

if they can be said to enjoy decline equal to one
to two cents on the pound of beef which, as COM
pared with last week, took place a! the great cattle
market in Forty fourth street, where 2,722 bull
locks were on sale that would probably average
$50 pounds of meat per bullock, making 2,O41, 800
pounds of beef sold in one day for city use. We
think the average price did not exceed ten cents,
and our cattle market report shows that some of
the very best in market sold at prices equal only to
ten or eleven cents. The prospect is much more
