From Washington.

WASHINGTON, March 23.-It having been
currently reported that the title to the new
quicksilver mining company of California, was
finally settled by the recent decision of the
supreme court of the United States in the Al
MAIDEN case, it is proper to say that the gov
ernment holds and claims the title to the prop
erty embraced i'll the decision to which refer
erence is made. The new quicksilver mining
company it is believed, hold their title under a
Mexican grant to Justo Savois, which was
confirmed by the supreme court several years
ago, as has heretofore been stated, but that
confirmation when the surveys were made I'M
der it, left out the richest portion of the mines
which were worked by the Almaden company,
and now decided to be the property of the
United States. The question as to the sur
yeyS and boundaries is still in litigation and
pending before the supreme court IN which
the United States and the quicksilver mining
company are parties. The quicksilver min
ing company, organized under the laws of
Pennsylvania, irsued eight million dollars of
stock: the annual net earnings Of the mines
estimated at about $750,000.
A gentleman recently arrived here from
the neghborhood OF Charleston, S. c., says it
is uncertain when an attack by our forces on
any of the southern Atlantic ports may be ex-
pected, but preparations were being made for
a heavy demonstration at pointwhich it may
not be now prudent to mention The officers
of the navy feel confident of success, but time
is necessary to perfect all the arrangements to
secure that end.
The commissioner of Indian affairs had a
satisfactory conference to-day with the repre-
sentatives of the Cheyennes, Kowas, Ca
manches, Arapahoes, Apaches and CuddoS.
These Indians are from the Rocky Mountains,
Denver, the borders OF New Mexico, &C., and
the tribes are scattered several hundred miles.
A delegation of Utes is expected this week.
The object of the government is to concen-
trate them, so as to render more safe the
routes to the gold mines and the Pacific, and
to conclude treaty OF peace with them.
The eighth census of the United States is
rapidly approaching completion. The pre-
liminary report which has been printed will be
followed by volumes on population, agricul-
ture, manufactures, mortality, etc. They are
nearly ready for the press. BY the resolu-
lions of the two houses the publication is
placed under the direction of the superintend-
emit of the census, who hopes to have the most
important portions of the work ready for dis
tribution before the next regular session of
congress.
The government has information leading it
to share the opinion entertained in Washing
ton circles of sympathizers with the insurrec-
ton, that the rebel army on the Rappahannock
Is making preparations to fail back toward
Richmond, probably as far as the lines of for
tiflcations constituting the detences of that

gets a trump like these two, he ''makes em

The battle Of Wayrow, fought on the 9TH of
February between the Russians and Poles,
furnishes an incident OF thrilling interest.
They were of about equal numbers with the
advantage Of position so much in favor of the
Russians that retreat of the Poles seemed
inevitable. AT this junclure two hundred no.
bles, most Of them young men Of twenty
years, offered to sacrifice themselves for the
good of all; they mountad their horse and
charged furiously upon the twenty guns of the
Russian column. For fifteen minutes they
kept the attention of the enemy occupied; at
the end Of that time a charge of Russian in
family settled their fate, and it is said that eve
ry man of them persisted or was captured.
But the main body had meanwhile made good
their retreat and when the enemy had again
time to look about them, the Polish force had
reached q place of advantage, from whence
their fire kept the opposing army in check.

city. The apprehension of the JEFF Davis
government is that an attack is intended by
way of James river, and this backward move
ment is considered necessary to thwart it.
Refugees from Richmond confirm this theory,
and add that Lees force has been much re-
duced by the withdrawal of Longstreet, the
two Hills, and other rebel generals with their
commands, who have gone to other parts of
the confederacy.
Before taking measures to put the law into
operation, the government is determined to
bring back to the national armies all the de-
serters who do not flee the country. 1t is re-
ported that the number of these men has been
ascertained from the army rolls to be not less
than 100000, and instructions have been Civ
en- to the proper officers to take the necessary
steps, under the recent proclamation of the
president, to return as many as can be found
to the ranks.

TEMPERANCE LECTURE.-Rev. II. w. Lewis
gave on Sunday evening last, at the Laurel
street church, the first of a monthly series of
discourses on temperance to be delivered I'M
der the auspices of the Worcester Temper
ance League. Mr.. Lewis text was taken
from job, II i: "Canst thou draw out levia-
than with hook?" The giant evil of intem-
perance was compared to the great levia-
than; the head of the animal was The distiler,
its body the retailer, its tail the drunkard, and
its scales and fins the temperate drinkers and
apologists of intemperunce. Its teeth were
compared to the kegs and demijohns we often
see. The general subject was discussed I'M
der several heads. Intemperance might be
ikened to the leviathan from its destructive
powers destroying wealth, health, hopes,
happiness, life, and the soul itself Can we,
he asked, draw out this leviathan with hook !?
In order to do it we must use the hook of
moral suasion, legal suasion, and gospel sua-
sion, combined.
A large audience was present, and the dis
course, which was an eminently practical and
instructive one, was deliveredin very forcible
and eloquent manner, enchanting the atten-
ton of all.

to accommodate l2O scholars. An order was
also adopted, authorizing the mayor to pur-
chase for the city a lot of land in Pleasant
Vile, for a school house, 120 feet front by ITO
