WASHINGTON, March 49,
The Senate and House have each passed
bill TO protect female passengers. 1t
only remains for either branch of Congress
to concur in tho action of the other, mat
ter more of form than substance, as the two
bills are similar in their provisions Such
an arrangement will probably be consum.
mated during the present week
Accounts from Chill represent seme =
what improved condition of affairs so far as
our country is concerned. 1t appears fur-
ther that both the Government and reyoluS
tionlsts had been collecting certain bands Of
American citizens, but by the prompt inter-
vention of Senator Bigler, the Government
was made responsible Negotiations with
Nicaragua for another treaty will be re-
sumed. The rejection of the one on Friday
was surprise to our Government, which
had no doubt Of its ratification by the Sem
ate. The impression seems to be the Com
gress will remain in session till about the
| lst of July.
The Washington correspondent of the N.
Y. Tribune says
The special Pacific Railroad Committee Of
the House discussed the various propositions
yesterday, and will resume the subject
tomorrow with the intention of taking a
decisive vote on Tuesday. All the indica-
tons warrant the belief that they will re-
port in favor of the roads; one already be-
gun under the auspices of J. Edgar Thomp-
son, Mr.. Stephens, and various rail road
