From Washington

WASHINGTON, Nov. 23-0ur Minister to
Spain, Mr.. Preston, is expected home by
the next steamer. The President has
given him leave of absence for six months.
There is such information in Washing
ton as warrants the belief that all the
difference between the United States and
Great Britain, growing out of the Clayton
Bulwcr treaty, will soon be adjusted
through the agency of Mr.. Wyck, the
English Minister to Central America. A
part of the arrangement was the recent
settlement of the boundary of British
Honduras.
Thomas T. NIeagher to-day brought dis
patches to the State Department from
Minister Dimitry, of Costa RIGA, who, it
appears, has made a favorable impression
on the Government of that Republic
The President did mot receive visitors
to-day, being engaged on. his, annual mes
sage, which he expects to finish during the
present week.
Fifteen hundred cases are pending in the
U. S. Court of Claims, but thirteen only
are ready for trial
Judge Douglas is still confined to his
room, but he is gradually recovering his
health
Daniel B. Martin has resigned his COM
mission us Chief Engineer in the Navy.
The various Government Offices will be
closed tomorrow, which will be generally
observed here as Thanksgiving Day.

Shutters were closed and lights extin-

continued until 10 o'clock, when it was
ascertained that the sentinel. had mistaken
COW for man; that she would not halt
when he commanded, and he fred.
Another alarm at o'clock this morn
ing was occasioncd by the report of three
guns; sentinel came rushing in and re-
ported that he had hailed three men, who
instead of hating, fired at him. Scouts
were sent out, hut no men could be found
about and the town was in an uproar
