As a freight and passenger packet, she is not excelled on the river for the trade in which she runs. She is officered by very clever fellows, who take great delight in making passengers enjoy themselves. ......This is the proper day for the little Grey Eagle, but we do not know that she will be down. We have not heard that her repairs have been finished. ......The new low-pressure boat, A. J. Cotten, passed down yesterday. We were on the lookout for the celebrated pelican flag on which the Courier has harped so much. It was not to be seen. Whether the Captain was ashamed of it in these latitudes, or whether he desired a little freight at this. "abolition port,'' this deponent sayeth not. ......The Union on her way to the Wabash, was deserted by her crew at Henderson. They complained of unfair treatment on the part of the cook. This was on Wednesday. ......The Louisville Courier of Wednesday has among others the following items: The River continues to fall rather fast, with eight feet water in the canal by the mark, at dark last evening. On the falls there were six feet water in the pass. During the previous twenty-four hours it had fallen four inches at the wharf, and twelve inches at Portland. The weather is rather pleasant, though freezing cold yesterday morning. Capt. Thomassen of the Admiral has sold back to Capt. Baird the half interest he held in that boat, which is now commanded and wholly owned by Capt. Baird. Southern Republic is the name of a splendid, first class boat, now plying the Alabama rivers, below Mobile and Montgomery. She was made in Mobile. The old High Flyer was towed over the Falls Monday by the Pink Varble No. 2, to be used, we understand, as a boarding house or floating hotel at the canal enlargement works. ———<>——— RAILROAD RECEIPTS.

About forty clerks are required in the respective departments to read and file applications for office. There are nineteen in the Postviffice Department alone. No important Ohio appointments have yet been made, though they are gradually being agreed on. The pressure is so great on the President from the West that he cannot settle the relative claims of the hordes of office seekers. Yesterday afternoon and to-day, a large number of Western men left for home. Some con'inue to arrive daily, and the number seems to be equally balanced. Indianians are here in swarms. Most of them are spending their funds with pleasant prospects for returning without office in the course of a few days. Hundreds who arrive here soon become aware of the small chance they stand. Gov. Chase is overrun with, office seekers as usual, and at times, too, when most of his official hours are required for the business of the Department.

Washingtos, March 21. Sehate. Mr. Douglas's resolution was taken up. Mr. Bayard resumed his remarks from yesterday in favor of recognizing the independence of the Confederate States. He discussed the causes leading to the withdrawal of se en states, among which was the formation and success of a sectional party hostile to slavery, and whose ultimate purpose was the extinction of slavery by the indirect action of the government. He argued the right of property in slaves, and the duly of protecting such right. Without concluding, The Senate went into executive session. FROM NKW ORLEANS. . Nkw Orleans, March, 21.

The Treasury Department is preparing instructions to collectors for the execution of the new tariff. Dispatches from Major Anderson, say that formidable batteries have been erected in the rear of Fort Sumter, which is its weakest point. A New Orleans dispatch to the Tribune says advices from Montgomery, announce that arrangements had been made with the commissioners at Washington to wait the withdrawing of the federal troop3 before opening negotiations.

SS&The following additional Washington items we find in the correspondence of the Cincinnati Gazette : Connuissioner of Pateuts, Hollo v.iy, it is intimated to-day, will be transferred to some other position. Fogg (.f New Hampshire, is understood to make a personal point that the office was tendered to bim, but before he could accept he was forced to go to New Hampshire, to attend to the interests of the party election there, pending which the priza slipped from his hands. I have not heard what disposition is to be made of these two gentlemen. Ripley of Minnesota, who was nominated as Assistant Secretary of Legation to Berlin," is cot likely to get the office, after all. His confirmation has been reconsidered, on the ground that he was appointed to enable him to forward European claims, and that his political proclivities do not tend much to Republicanism. Dr. H. Fletcher of Minnesota i3 pressed very hard by the Congressional delegation from that State, for Commissioner to the Sandwich Islands. D. T. Smith, of the same State, is an applicant for one of the bureaus under Secretary Chas;. The Republican caucus has determined to change the officers of the Senate. Asbury Dickens, who has been Secretary of that body for some thirty-five years, is to be removed, and William Hickey, Clerk, is to be appointed in his place. The latter gentleman tins been connected with the Senate for twenty years. W. Lavery, of Illinois ; W. Reynolds, Jr., of Iowa ; A. M. Swan of Illlinois; F. M. Heaton of Indiana, and Miles L. Yetter of Indiana, have been appointed to first-class $1,200 clerkships, in the General Land Office, to fill existing vacancies. James L. Thompson of Indianapolis, Ind.; Mark Tilton of Madison, Ind.; John II. Bunn of Springfield, III.; Edward Gallagher of Louisville, Ky., and August Thireme of Cleveland, are appointed Pension Agents. Thomas Jefferson Robinson of Kentucky, has been removed from his third-class 1, COO clerkship in the Indian Bureau, and Mr. Jesse Conrad of Indiana, has been appointed to a second-class $1,400 clerkship in the same bureau. The New Missouri Senator. from the St. Louis Democrat (Rep.) Monday the General Assembly elected Waldo P. Johnson, Senator, to succeed James S. Green. In the Presidential contest Mr. Johnson was conspicuous as a supporter of Mr. Breckinridge; He was one of the Commissioners to the Peace Conference, and we understand exhibited anything but a disposition for compromise. In politics he differs little, if at all, from his predecessor. They are both conditional or prospective Secessionists extreme Southern or States rights men. Personal considerations must, therefore, have decided the choice of the majority in preferring him to Green. The Senator elect has always borne a high character for integrity aud personal propriety of conduct among his neighbors, the people of the Southwest. In the struggle between Benton and his enemies, Judge Johnson sided with Bentou, and opposed Phelps. For various reasons, we regard the election of Johnson an omen of the overthrow of Phelps, whe, it will be remembered, had a very narrow escape last August. The number of. Conditional Union men elected to the Convention is an accurate criterion of what its strength was iu the hour of greatest excitement in the State. Yet Messrs. Polk and Johnson are of it and in it. The latter ha3 lost nothing by rejecting regular nominations. He supported Hancock Jackson against the incumbent of the Executive chair ; he supported Breckinridge against Douglas. In fact, he has laughed at Conventions and regular nominations. His election plainly signalizes the rise of a new party on the ruins of the old Democratic party. irom the St. Louis Republican Demorraiie. During the past winter, Judge Johnson was 6ent by the Assembly as one of the Commissioners to the Peace Congress, at Washington, attended there, and recently gave an account of his mission to that body, which looked secession ward. Explanations made prior to the balloting, which resulted in his election, leave room for donbt as to the extent which he is willing to go in that direction, and we shall wait, now, for some authorized statement of his political status. If disposed to represent the people of Missouri, he will give up any extreme opin ions such as have been maintained by Mr. Green and seek to carry out the wishes of a constituency which is now, and is likely for a long while to be, loyal to the Union under the Constitution.
