THE PROTECTION or TIE CAPITAL,
After much hesitstion and delay, arrangements
were made 10, day for the protection of Washing
ton, which will insure it against any probable
danger from conspiracy within or invasion with
out Another company Of light artillery will b.
brought here tomorrow from Foot McHenry,
which is to be substituted there by one from
West Point. THIS company, and tae present
troops, are to be posted az different psrts of the
city, under military organization so perfect chat
all NAV be concentrated, within a sh,rt time,
effectively. The cOnspiratOrs and their allies are
much exercised by ths presence of this precaa
tiopary force, but mainly because it disconcerts
and defeats their wellunderstOoo plans, ans stops
the contamination of disunion, which contem-
plated the seizure of this capital and archives
part Of the rebel programme. Tn, Batiimo1s Snn
this morning raised its disunon mask sufficiently
to ab.t this conspiracy without much indirectlon.
THE ADMISSION OF KANSAS.
Kansas is at last in the Union. The House
thought it better to accept the Senete's amend
ment creating judicial district than to run the
risk Of returning the bill, although it was INTENDED

to linger some time before confirmation, and
perhaps till after the 4th Of March.

law made superintendent at West Point last Fall

tied to the position by lineal promotion. lie ex-
ercised a similar influence at Annapolis, and in
all the departments public service, for the benefit
Of his relatives and partisans. Mr. Holt has
restored Mr. Dela6eld to West Point for the time
being, and Mr. SlideI is more for disunion than
ever
MR.. TYLER AND HIS MISSION.
John Tyler will return to Richmond tomorrow.

structiOn which the cOnspratOrs have adopted to
conceal their treason and mslead the people.
VIRGINIA.
Mr.. Hunter expresses the confident opinion
that Virginia will pass an ordinance of Secession,
and Join the Southern COnfederacy. All his ID
Huence has been exerted in that direction, with
the view Of being made President No man has
been deeper in the plot, from the beginning, or
advocated it more Jesuiticaly, under the pro-
fessed garb of conservatism.
EUROPEAN ENCOURAGEMENT.
The Disunionists pretend TO have received let
| tiers from important sources in Europe, giving
encouragement to the idea that their bogus ex
| pertinent will be recognized. The foreign Powers
have enough to do in looking after their own
concerns, without meddlng with ours, even if 30
/ dispOsed-which they are not. The Cotton States
cannot borrow dive in Europe, OF be admitted
| to separate diplomatic or commercial intercourse
| without having first obtained the recognition of
this Government.

of apy of the Committees of the Senate, as has
