From Washington.

WASHINGTON, August lO.-lt is ascertained, from
an authentic source, that the 18th of June the
United States Deputy Marshal for Northern
Florida, informed the Government of the preva-
ence reports that vessel vessels expect
ed the coast of Florida with slaves from Africa,
and made some suggestions as to the best mode Of
ntercepting and arresting them-the Marshal him
self being absent in another part of the State.
The Secretary of the Interior, on the reception
of this communication. Immediately telegraphed
the Deputy, informing him that revenue cutter
had been ordered from Charleston to cruise along
the coast of Florida under his direction. The
Deputy accordingly went ON board of the cutter on
the 90th of June, and reached New Smyrna Inlet
on the Sd of July. Two weeks thereafter he wrote
that he had boarded various schooners, to which
suspicion might attach had carefully inquired for
many miles along the coast, and concluded by say
ing that there no information to verify the
ports of the landing of Africans.
1t further appears that Marshal Blackburn him
self was far behind the times, he did not inform
the Interior Department or those rumors until his
deputy had investigated their truth, with the above
mentioned result. These facts are CLEANED from
| official papers. hsa
Further returns from the North Carolina cleo
tlon show that Mr.. Vance, opposition, has been re-
elected to Congress from the Sth district.

meeting ofthe property holders on Eutaw street
to the number of about 200, was held last evening
at the New Market engine house, to take into con-
sideration the subject of city passenger railway
track along that street. Mr.. T. E. Hambleton was
called to the chair, and Mr. j. d. Early appointed
Secretary. The chairman stated the object of the
meeting TO be to take measures to the inter
ests of Eutaw street, in the proposed railway
track. The City Council had granted charter for
the laying of track along Eutaw street. provided
majority of the property holders desired it. Pro-
perty holders another street not far distant had
already taken steps to the laying of track
their street, which, if successful would be greatly
to the detriment of property holders on Eutaw
street. 1t was their duty to be prompt in their
action. Eutaw street presented many advantages
over Howard street. Its grade was mnch lighter,
the street was more lively, and it pissed through
the best market in the city, 1t had been ascertain
ed that it would receive larger amout Of travel
than any other street running in that direction. If
