THURSDAY MORNING........APRIL 4 ======= ——>Mr. Davis yesterday handed us his usual supply of papers, and Mr. Fish furnished us with the first State paper issued by the Confederate States that we have seen. ———<>——— ——>Some friends at the Capital have sent us two or three copies of the Report of the Committee appointed to investigate the Northern State Prison abomination. We do not know who they are but thank them, nevertheless. ———<>——— The New Administration. Never before did men assume the guidance of a great government under such unfavorable circamstances as those that confronted Mr. Lincoln and his Cabinet ou entering upon the duties of their respective positions. For months treason had run riot through the land. It had invaded the Cabinet of the preceding President, and its rauiificfttions extended through every branch of the public service sapping the integrity of officers both in the civil and military departments until it became impossible to tell who should be trusted, and who discarded. Day after day some new outrage upon the government was brought toligbt some additional instance of breach of faith on the part of oflicials made known. So entrely did many of the army and navy officers disregard their solemn oaths, that the government had no assmance that the beat vessels in the navy would not be sur rendered as did Gen. Twiggs with the finest department of the army. So sudden was the attack upon federal authority bo wide-spread the disaffection, and bo timid and hesitating the movements of Mr. Buchanan that the National Capital itself was endangered, and everywhere patriots began to despair of the republic. Under these gloomy auspices Mr. Lincoln was inaugurated and delivered hi3 celebrated inaugural address. This address wonderfully revived the hopes of those who had well nigh given up to despair. He immediately gathered about him, as his advisers and assistants, the most eminent men of the nittion men esteemed at home for their integrity, and abroad for their talents and statesmanship and the new administration was at once set in motion. Congress, prior to adjourn ment,"refused to pass any law that would have a tendency to strengthen the new President's handsi or enable him to maintain and uphold the national honor. They voted down a bill authorizing him to call on the States for men and money, and to close the ports of cities in the seceding States or to collect the revenues from the decks of vessels itationed without their harbors. Having tied Mr. Lincoln's hands as completely as they knew how, the sagacious law-makers retired to their homes to await the result. Soon the painful rumor became current that Fort Sumter would have to be abandoned. Various reasons for this course were assigned by everybody except the Administration . itself tho most plausible of which seemed to be that the fort was no longer tenable, front the inability of the Government to reinforce its garrison or supply them with provisions. This rumor was speedily followed by conflicting reports in reference to Fort Pickens. It was stated that the Administration intended vacating that fortress in order to placate the border Slave States and convince tr.eni thnt its policy was to be eminently conciliatory and peaceful. Republicans, who had bitterly denounced James Buchanan for not taking prompt measures to crush the Rebellion wheu it firei began to show its hideous front, commenced manifesting symptoms of impatience and displeasure at the apparent apathy of the new Administration. Some of them even went so far as to call in question it3 " backbone." Without fairly comprehending all the difficulties that surrounded the President and his Cabinet they hastened to decide what Mr. Lincoln should do and then growled because their recommendations were not adopted. In the meantime, while the country is lost in doubt as to what course Mr. Lincoln will purftie ; while the papers are discussing and placing their own constructions on his inaugural the new Cabinet is busily at work. The foreign missions have been filled with the very best men that could have been selected. The home patronage has beeu rapidly dispensed. The home squadrou has been collected and concentrated. The army of Tcxa3 has been removed from that State leaving it to the ravages of Camanche Indians and Mexican bandits and concentrated in the forts bordering on the Gulf. Silently,but with the certainty of fete itself, have been its movements, and its designs have remained unknown until their accomplishment makes them public. No Administration that has managed the Government, ever kept their intentions so profoundly secret as have tho Cabinet of Mr. Lincoln. , The Foreign. Ministers have received their instructions, yet the tenor of those instructions are an l are likely to remain a mystsry to everybody except the Ministers themselves. Orders from the War Department are traversing the country thick and fast, and yet the indefatigable newsmongers at the federal city fail to furnish us with any correct information as to what they are. So completely are they at fault that they frequently are compelled to correct in tho afternoon, statements they telegraphed in the morning. An Administration that can thus keep its own secrets when it is beset by a horde of impudent reporters who are paid to pry into and publish, its intentions and orders is not likely to fail, if success is possible. Gradually, however, its movements nre demonstrating its intentions. The dispatches of the past five or six days unmistakably indicate that no American will have reason

to Mash fof the honor of his flag remains in Mr. Lincoln's hands. while i it keebij clearly evident that not only does the Administration intend to hold Fort Pickensi but also Sumter, if its re-enforcement can be in any way accomplished. Mr. Lincoln will not make a miserable Star-of-the-West failure. It he concludes to attempt the re-enforcement of that fort, it will be strengthened Tho seeming inactivity tf the government has been masterly t and will Boon be acknowledged as such. Thank God ! our government still exists. Though faction and fanaticism and treason assail and beat upon it, it yet stands. Its flag yet waves proudly the stars serenely smiling from its azure field. Tho Union is not destroyed andifa second baptism in blood is essential to its perpetuity the sacrifice will be cheerfully made. No ! the Union is not sorely best, but " A tome toll cliff that lifts iU awful form Swells from tho vale and midway leave the storm, Though round it breast tha rolling clouds are spread ; Eternal sunshine settles ou in head. Editorial Correspondence. Avisce Hocsk, " Washington City, March 30, 1861. J D&ab Journal : The crowd of officeseekers is diminishing as place after place is given out, and the stock of " the needful " runs low in the pockets of aspirants. Every out-going train takes off some, and the in-coming trains bring others, but not in sufficient numbers to supply the vacant places at the hotel and boarding-house tables. Landlords begin to fear lest their best customers should all desert them. They have been reaping a rare harvest together with hackmen, boot-blacks; newsboys, and others who flourish where strangers " most do congregate." All of our newly-elected Republican Congressmen have been here, but some have left Messrs. Colfax, Porter, and White amongst them. I presume the remainder will go in two or three days. The Senate adjourned tine die as has been announced by telegraph on Thursday. A large number of appointments were confirmed before adjournment. A number of prominent men have been boarding at thi3 house amongst them Cowan, one of the new Pennsylvania Senators ; Helmick of Ohio and Covode of Pennsylvania, Representatives, and D. K. Carter of Cleveland, Ohio, the new Minister to Bolivia. I have visited most of the points of interest since I have been here, and have seen much to wonder at and admire. The Capitol is a noble, wonderful, and beautiful edifice. The two immense wings which have been added to the ancient main building, though unfinished lacking the finishing touches add vastly to the appearance of the structure.- They are of white marble, and furnished throughout with the utmost elegance. Polished marble stairways and balustrades, tesselated marble floors, bronzed iron and variegated marble columns and pi1 asters, panels of rare woods highly polished, large gilt mirrors, costly window hangings, stained glass sky-lights all these lend an air of palatial elegance to the edition erected for the accommodation of the Nation's lawgivers. The Senate Chamber is in the North wing, the Hall of Representatives in thn South. The Supreme Court of the United States meets in the old Senate Chamber, made famous by the genius of Webster, Clay, Calhoun, Benton, Clayton, and a host of other statesmen. As 1 stood on its floor and viewed its almost sacred walls and surroundings, I wa3 awe-stricken with the associations which hallowed the place. The Supreme Court is not now sitting, and the Chamber is vacant and silent; but a vivid imagination readily peoples its precincts with the ghostly forms of the mighty dead who once flourished there. The old Hall of Representatives the scene of many a contest between intellectual giants is now dismantled and deserted used only as a store room for the statues, etc., designed to adorn the rejuvenated Capitol. The dome, when finished, will be the crowning glory of the Capitol. There is much work yet to be done on it. It has to be raised many feet higher and crowned with a gigantic statue of the Goddess of Liberty. I ascended to the dome and obtained a grand view of the city and surrounding country. The interior of ' the dome, or rotunda, will be when finished impressive in the greatest degree by its vastness and elegance of adornment. Now, the dome not reaching to its full height, and a large amount of scaffolding obstructing the view upward from the floor, the spectator does not get a just idea of the extent of this rotunda. - But, nevertheless, it is magnificent, with its great height near 140 feet to the temporary roof and its wall of wide sweeping circumference, "ornamented by large depressed panels in which are scenes of early American history in alto relievo, by its . eight large paintings representing similar scenes, and by portraits of Ex-Presidents and other distinguished men. The grounds surrounding the Capitol are beautiful and spacious. The East front of the Capitol is the principal one and the most elegant in architectural and artistic design, but it is the West front that faces Pennsylvania Avenue and the main part of the city. Approaching the West front one goes up a gradual ascent through avenues of trees until within thirty or forty yards of the edifice, where wide stairways lead to abroad terrace, in the center of which is a large fountain, and basin containing gold fish. Other flights of stairs lead to the entrance of the balldlng. On the East side the ground is level the Capitol being on the crown - of a ridge. A grand stairway, flanked by statues, leads to the main building, and other stairways are in course of erection in front of the two wings. A large park lies beyond the open space before this front, well supplied with grass and trees, and decorated with flowers and evergreens. In this are two imposing statues one of the i Goddess of Liberty, and the other of George Washington. The latter is mounted on a blue granite pedestal. The figure faces west with a benignant aspect; its right hand points with extended forefinger to heaven, its left is extended horizontally and holds a sword, the hilt pointing outward and blade resting on the arm, as if being given np. I visited the Capitol and grounds a few evening3 ago, and .approached while the last rays of the setting son fell with beautiful etfect on the splendid edifice. The impression I received, as I viewed the vast pile surmounting its green acclivity, clothed with traditionary glory, and embodying the idea of American nationality, was such as I shall never forget. I have passed considerable time iu the Senate Chamber, hearing, the debates and looking at the ' grave and reverend seigneurs." They ocenpy very cosy seats, and are ranged in a semi-circle in front of the Vice President's desk. "'Tis distance lends enchantment to the view," Camp-
Vlrif Tity iavsItis astonishing bow, bh close observation bf these celebrities, the polish gets rubbed off from them, and they become, most of- them, very ordinary mh. They drink," and smoke, and chew, and expectorate on the floor, and swear, and talk nonsense, exactly like common people. Of course these latter remarks don't apply to all the Senators some of them are high-toned gentlemen and men of genius. Let us take a glance at some of the prominent ones : ' First, there is the Vice President, Mr. Hamlin. He is a gentleman of about the medium stature, stoop shouldered, complexion as dark as Tom Corwin's, dark hair, soft voice, and remarkably unassuming in his demeanor. He makes a popular presiding officer. There on the Democratic side (the right of the V. P.) is Douglas. Many of our readers have seen the " Little Giant." He is quite low in stature, but burly. His head is leonine, large in proportion to his body, hair long, face rubicund and slightly, colored with " the wine of the vine benign." His mein is imperious and bis utterances dictatorial, as if he had been " born to command." Near him is Breckinridge. ' He is tall and of a dark complexion, and has recently raised black whiskers (getting fashionable since Old Abe raised 'em.) His nose 13 depressed, brow overhanging, eyes expressive, hair black, sprinkled with grey, under jaw long the whole physiognomy giving the impression of determination and fearlessness of character. His independent swing when walking deepens this impression. Not far off is Andrew Johnson of Tennessee. He is about five feet eight inches high, and well built, has dark hair, shaven face, pleasant countenance, and does not appear to be the powerful thinker his speeches prove him to 'be. In fact he seems a very ordinary man. He is much sought after and admired by Btrangers, especially Union men, and returns advances with great suavity and cordiality. Jesse D. Bright he is pretty well known to our citizens. He is about six feet tall. portly, and seems well fed and " comfortable. 1 thanK you." Mr. B. is a good liver, and if it were not for the sudden attacks of rheumatism, etc., that affects him whenever he wants to dodge a vote, he would enjoy life very much. Probably he does, not with standing. He is a courteous gentleman, and aside from his politics i9 well liked by the people generally. Hunter, of Virginia, A dark complexioned gentleman of ordinary size, long hair, and forbidding countenance. Mason, of V irginia, A large, gray haired personage, of the "Old Virginia gentleman" style. He is a fine looking man, and knows it, for he faces the lobby half the time to display his proportions. In intellect he is notoriously of not much force. Bayard of Delaware. A tall, rather heavy set old gentleman, sandy hair, inexpressive face, and an awful dull speaker. He bored the Senate and cleared tho galleries a few days ago by a speech continued through three days, occupying an hour and over each day and that when public business was very pressing and the Senate was anxious to adjourn. Rice of Minnesota. A tall, sandy-com-plexioned, smooth-faced gentleman, of a pleasing aspect. Nicholson of Tennessee. A tall, Blim, Roman-nosed mac, wearing whiskers. He is the gentleman to whom Gen. Cass wrote his celebrated "Nicholson letter." Clingmau of North Carolina. A medium sized man, firmly built, slim, swarthy complexion, and wearing whiskers and moustache. Wigfall of Texas. A medium sized, thick set man, with black hair, whiskers and moustache. He has a villainous lookiner countenance, and knowing the character of tne man, one would immediately select him as the bully of the Senate. But I have said enough on the personel of the Senate for the present. In my next I will give sketches of some of the Republican Senators. I learn that our friend L. S. Gilkey will get the Rock fort Postoffice. Messrs. W. French of Jefferson ville, and Kercheval of Grandview will it is said get the two Evansville and Louisville route agencies. John W. Wilson gets the New Albany Postoffice. He has made two bard races for Congress in the Second District and deserves what he gets. Our readers will be glad to know that Mr. Tielding Johnson, an old and estimable citizen of The Pocket and of Evansville, now of Quindara, Kansas, has been favored by the Administration with the Agency of the Delaware Indians, who reside near his locality. This is a most excellent appointment and a good position for Mr. J. The weather is Gne and spring is openlne' ' "- ' J U McN' N. B. Risixgsb, Editor of the Princeton Indianian, called on us yesterday. He proposes to wait on our merchants and Bolici' advertising favors. CO?" The Maysville (Ky.) Express says the prospect for a heat j ,,rheat crop was never more promising than now in that section of the State. aT" The Louisville Journal sayg it was rumored in that city on Monday that Dr Hines, of Bardstown, father of Blythe Hines of this city, had received the appointment of Resilient Physician to the U. S. Marine Hospital nt Louisville, made vacant by the resignation of Prof. R. J. Breckinridge. MARRIED : On the Uth of March, by Rev. J. W. Johnson, at the residence of the bride's father, Dr. W. K.
