WASHINGTON. June Is, 1871.
The "spcck Of war" in Corca, of which
official ndycgS from the naval authorities
In ASiatc waters give intimationS, pro-
duccS considerable comment here, and
further intelligence from that quarter is
looked for anxiously. AS Admiral Rodgers
stated tho fight would be renewed, the
eaccrncsS for further reports approaches
intensity. This circumstance may lead to
international communication between this
and European nations concerning the pro-
lection OF the interest OF civilized Govern
mcnts on that coast. and there is every GER
tainty of it securing renewed and earnest
consideration by this GoVcrument.
The Ohio Republicans are exhibiting an
increase of nervousness over their pros
poets during the campaign now on the eve
OF inauguration. At this time, so far rs all
adviceS received here go, they arc in de-
li@htful state Of uncertainty what to do in
taking issue with the progressive Demo-
cracy, though that matter must he settled
in very short time. SO FIR as heard from,
General Grant is not giving the dilemma
his personal attention, though the friends
Of his administration regard it forcgone
| conclusion that he will bo duly covered
with glory In the Convention platform.
Secretary Delano having returned from
the South, where he was in no way moleSt-
| ed or made afraid by kukluX demonstra-
tions, or even by the belief OF their exist
cncc, is taking short turn at his desk in
the Interior Department, the Assistant Sec
| rotary General Cowan) having lclt the city.
Mr.. Bcknap is still on hand, aud will not
| make summer trip Of any duration. Bout
well is still in Washington, and passes his
time in attending to his Treasury-Depart-
ment duties i'll the morning and patronizing
baseball matches III the afternoons, when
iii st-class clubs compete. In this admira-
tion of the national game Secretary Bout
we'll is warmly seconded by the British
Minister, who rarely fails to be OH hand
when there is a game worthy Of notice in
the field.
Washington, which has been without any
place of amusement for several weeks, is
about to attempt the support for Il week,
| commencing tomorrow night, of negro
minstrel troupe. The chances are against it.
| 1t is reported from Pennsylvania that in
some OF The districts the old-School Demo-
ciats were disposed TO growl about the
| "new DEPARTURE" but the overwhelming
| sentiment existing in the State in defence
OF the advancing policy Of the large party
opposed 10 the present Administration, en-
| iircly di>sipatcd all intimations of G>con-
tent. In truth, all reports coming here,
| buth to Conservative aud Radical quarters,
prove the wide strength of the Democracy
with their advanced standard. Some i'll The
| North, who were ut first disposed to be
| lukcwarm i'll the matter, have been taught
reason and wisdom by lessons from the
| South, aud it will bear repetition that in
| almost every conversation Oh the topic agi-
tatiuy political centres Virginia comes in
| for large share of the praise which has
resulted from the force of good example.
Two or three delightful rain->torns to-
day have cooled the air to L degree which
| is very consistent with comfort. Tonight
the northern heavens displayed Il brilliant
aurora.
FlDanciers are awaiting with no little
anxiety tie arrival in Europe of Judge
Richardson, Mr.. BoutwelPS assistant, on
| his mission TO circulate the new loan
| throughout the capitals and business marls
OF the old World. Spinner is in the adj
vance paving the way, but very little has
| been heard rs TO whether he is successful
III accordance with the Government eX-
| rcclalionS or not. Richardson will per-
| lapS he more communicative.
! Although the status Of fcN-ReprcScntatiye
| Bowen, recently convicted of blgamy, us
Il man Of little or no moral attributes is
| perfectly we'll understood here, there is yet
Il iatcnt sympathy developing i'll lis favor,
growing out of The impression that his
| trial Was the result OF prosecutions, origi-
mated by parties VINO had gcudscs TO tcttlc !;
and Is Il result OF this, il seems certain that
his pardon by the Executive would pro-
duce no extensive comments OF dl>iayOr.
There Is no indication, however, of the
manner in Which the petition for pardon
has been received by the President.
