An extraordinary meeting of the Cabinet was sum

bring together the reports, some Of which had been
submitted 10 the Presldent privately before Mr. bn-
ohanau lays great strss upon the conduct Of Mexico,

facts at bis command he will throw the responsibility
upon Congress of vestng him with discretion " meet
whatever emergency may arise after the adjournment
He foresees danger ahead and perhaps may not Do
unwilling to have = collision occur to promote various
cherished obects. Ii is no secret here that comoi
nation has been formed, with the knowledse, IL no,
with the conrivance Of the Government TOR socalled
revelation in Sonora looking TO l's acquisition, with
port on the Pacific. This scheme was medi,ated last
WINTER ard in fact was feature In the movement tor
n Territorial Government in Arizona, which Judge
Douglas killed of at first, and was willing to resusci-
tate aerwsrd Other experiments having failed, the
Administration now fills back upon that panaceA oi

The Navy report this year, will be twioe the length
of the last owing to the details Of the operations In
the Gulf during the Summer, the equipment OF tho
Paraguay expedition and other matters Of interest In
that branch of the public service. Although an en-
desvor has been made to reduce the expenditures the
attempt would seem i'm practicable, In view oi ths
large cost involved in the outfit ~ Paraguay and the
uncertainty Of the length m time for which this outlay
will be- required IL may be six months or year, or
more, according u circumstances. which cannot
now be ioTeseen.
The receipts at the Treasury Tor the past week

In fact, there has been substantial Improvement Of
foreign commerce since then, or OF that domestic

The revival must be Glow, under the most fsyoripg

Secretary OF Treasury, adhering to his fixed idea:
OF freerade, and hoping against hope Tor Increased
imports will not this, and thence eserts the iniu
Of his position against any substantial rebel As
necessary consequence OF this course, he must rely
on borrowing only 10 meet the ordinary expenditures
There no other resource, since, mt the present ras

will respond cordially.
WAsHISGTos, Nov. ~, 1863.
From cacu.tion based upon the statistics 81 past
sessions am confident that there win not be seoeay
aOyking days during the session. The amount OF pri-
yate business left undone at the adjournment Was
great: Secretary CObbs estimates will doubtless be
nearer So 900 900 than the sums which others have
figured them at the Pacific Railroad people will n-
sst upon their scheme in short, the honorable Sena-
tofs and Representatives, must go 10 work 10 good
earnest, or an extra session will be necessary.
Senator Davis has even astonished his southern
friends here, by his onslaught upon JUICE llougss
and upon the North after his return home His coli
league here, Gov. Brown, continues TO defend the
Senator from Illinois while the Little Giant him
sef has gone 20 "tsry the war into Africa" and 70

drcd years ago. He married Miss Bowling, and
gave dleunCr a (ouretete to some five hundred
friends at the Gilmore House, which Is 40 excelenty
