Affairs at Washington.

A bill has been reported by Mr.. Col
lamer, in the Senate, authorizing the
Postmaster General to carry into effect the
provisions heretofore made for reftsing
and preparing the building owned by che
United States, on Chestnut street, Philad-
elphia, for the use of post Office and the
United States Courts, provided that the
whole expense of the alterations shall not
exceed the unexpended balance heretofore
appropriated for that purpose.
Judge Thomas, of Massachusetts,, from
the Committee on the Judiciary, has re-
ported in the House bill to facilitate judi
icial proceedings in adjudcations upon
captured property, for the better admins
traton of the law of prizes, which provi-
des that the Prize Commissioners shall re.
ceive and place under seal any property
captured and brought into their district,
and place it in custody Of the Marshal of
such district. If the Commissioners find
on such examination that she property is
perishing or pershable or dcteriorating in
value, they shall report to she Court, and
the Court shall order, upon evidence, an
int crlocutory sale thereof by the United
States Marshal The proceeds to be de-
posted in the registry Of the Court, to
abide the fnal decree.
The Military Committee of the Senate
rep orted unanimously in favor of the
nomination of Daniel L. Sicklos to Il Brig
adler Gencraship. I his removes all
doubt of his confirmation by the Senate.
1t is reported of Secretary Stanton
that he says "The army must now earn
its living" The soldiers in the dismal ,
inactive camps reply that all they desire
is something to do. With such accord the
country will know what to expect,
Gen. Mcclellan is daily out in the nc
tive discharge of his duties.
Robert Wilson was sworn in as Senator
from Missouri, Gen. Pomeroy, Of Kansas
vouching for his loyalty. Gen. Pomeroy
lives near enough to Mr.. Wilson's home to
be authorized to speak confidently of bis
sentiments and position.
J The Postmaster here has issued notice
that Treasury notes will not be received
in payment for stamps, unless they are
purchased in snms of So SO.
The Hutchinsons, are to be prevented
hereafter singing their abolition songs in
the loyal camps. Let them 60 and indul-
ge their proclivites among the rebel
camps, They are sadly ia need of music
The male Hutchinsons ought to throw
away their song books and take up the
musket, and make the rebels sing, then
they would prove that they believe in the
abolition trash they undoubtedly very
meodiously chant. An eztinquisher has
been put on their vocalism by General
Mcclellan. He has sent instructions tc
all the Generals of Divisions, ordering
them to forbid the ''family" from singing
within tn cir lines.

The Presidential Question.

The Democratic - Pottsville- Standard, 4,
in lengthy and ably written article, ,nom'
inates the Hon, WILLIAM BIGLER, OF
Pennsylvania, as the next Democratic
candidate for President OF the United
States. We agree with cur b other of the
Standard, that than Senator BIGLER there
are few purer, abler and better statesmen
10 be found under the flag of the Ameri-
can Union. 1t may be considered pre-
mature, to agitate this question, but when
the proper time arrives, Ex Gov Biglcr,
will have host of lends in every section
of the country and command respectable
support of the Democracy of Pennsylva
nis.

A Contrast.

Decidedly the most brillan. military
which our Country ever engaged
was the Mexican War, during the admin
istra.icn of President Polk. tx. President
Buchanan, was, at that time, Secretary Of
Sta.e, and the late Governor Marcy, Sec.
retary of War. The most extensive means
had to be provided for the maintenance Of
large army in distant country, and
millions of money passed through the hands
of the government officers But we do not
remember that any one of them was ever
charged with pcculation or dlshoncsty.-
Certain it is that not whisper was ever
heard affecting the integrity of Mr.. Marcy,
and he retired from Office enjoying the re-
spcct of the whole country. The demo-
cratic administration of President Polk, in
that campaign, set an example which
might have been proftably followed by
those holding high places under Mr.. LIN
colin. 1t certainly is not necessary to the
successful prosecution of war that all
concerned in conducting it should turn
highway robbers.--Easton argus.

Ess- For goodness sake let US lose sight
of the negro and strive to ameliorate the
condition of the white man. The st..
Louis Republican says, as it touches upon
the abolition fallacies and forcibly asks,
."Where are those general uprisings of the
slaves, so confidently prophecied in Ger,
tain quarters, as the inevitable result of a
civil war; Where are those servile butch
cries that heated imagiuations conjured up
as the probable result of our domestic con.
fict ! Where is that universal unrest of
the blacks, which was expected to deplete
the Southern States of the 'brawny sons
of toll, and lead them to safe refuge in
the North ? There have been no insur-
rectons and there are likely to be none.
May not, thereio ore, the Abolitionists, Who
have been mistaken in this idea, be equally
mistaken in many other notions that they
are so constantly and pertinaciously fer,
cling upon the public? The holiday sea-
son is over, when custom allows the slaves
of the South almost unrestricted liberty,
and yet we have heard of no gigantic
revolts, such as have been promised as
following the occupation of the southern
country by the Federal troops. Isn't it a
pity to try to wreck country out of pre-.
tended consideration for race who can
have no appreciation of such sacrifices for
their benefits ;"
