Wasmivarox, D. 0., Nov. 20.—Becretary Robe- 8o continuos to push forward his warlike prep- and in proportion as the magnitude of his opera- tions ia discloasd and public curiosity or appro- heusion aroused, the efforts of tho suthoritioa are {ncroased not anly to canceal the cacee of all thid sctivity but aven prevent the publio from knowing its extent. Every ono connected with tho Navy Departmont is forbidden to givo any information in rogard to the fittiog out of vossels or transfor of officers, whilo membors of tho Cabinet either protend to know nothing at ail sbout the matter or say that the Bocrelary of the Navy Is eimply making lis aonudl trans- fers from colder to warmer watora. One momber of the Cabinet said to-day that for twenty-five yeurs, except during the War, it bad been customary to withdraw all veesels that oould be spared from warm latitudes and un- bealthy climates, and that at this scason of tha yoar s greabnumber of them are always sont back, This yoar Lio sald wo havo MORE AVAILADLE VESSELS thav herstofors, and therofore theao transfers maks mors atir. This, ho sald, was suficient ex~ planation for all the prosent sctivily in pavy circles, but this esplanation, which haa beforo boen given from oqually high sourcos, does not sstiafy tho public mind. The amount of money now being eent by the Becretsry of the Navy is vory great, and Dot warranted by the appropristions made durlng 1o Jaat mesaion of Congress unless it is intonded to spend the groster part of the available funds now aud ask for wmore money after Congross moets. Ib 18 indesd now learncd that overy availsble iron-olad veasel which tuo Goveramont owns has eithor boen made ready for ses or is rapidly spproaching thst condition, sud thet esch ono of them has been supplied with outfit, torpedoes, and torpedo-apparatus, which bave beon propared in tho groatest hasto. It is also reported that the Quartermaster-General's Do~ partmont of the armny has chartorod a vessel in New York to TBANSPORT TROOTS TO PENSACOLA, Tt is impoesible to verify this latter report to- night, but stmy oficars say, if it Is true, 1t will ok necessarily have any important slgnificance, since it is customary to keep somo troops at Pensscola, and it wonld be & very natural thing, at this sesson, espeolally in view of tue prova. 1sace of yellow fevar in that pact during the paat two yoars, to send naw troops to take the placo of thoss who are pow or bave been recently there, Twonew theories have been proposed witbin the past two days in explanation of the mysterious naval movements, The firat is based on & report, which seemed to be authoritative, (st Becretacy Fish had, ton or fifteon days sgo. sent Bpain s peremp- torly demand that sbe should wake good Lier promiss to abollsh alavery in Cubs, and that the Presdont desires to emphashto tuat de- mand by tho presence within su availsble diatance of & #trong naval fores. At the State Departmeont it is not dsnied that the subject of slavery in Cuba has been often mentioned {o potes that havo boen sent Cushing, and that oor Gavernment has rapeatedly complainod that the Spanish decree of smancipation hea not been made effective. Indeed, it iaquite probable that this subjecs was noticed lu 8 note sant two or threa waoka ago, but it s denled that this question of . slavery to Cuba has been made a prominent matter in any recent commuaication. ANOTHER LEFORT that has also gained currenoy here i as foliown: Guatomala some tme sgo recognized the bel ligerency of Oubs, an act which was nos at pieasiog 1o the Bpavish Goverowent, Beveral moonths sgo Bpain sent » messenyer 10 Guate- mala to remonstrate agalost thia sction, and ask for its reowlon, Tuis the Government of Quatemals refuscd to do, aud now it Is amd Bpain proposes & movemant sgainat the Ceutial American Republics, which the President of the United Siates, {n sccordance with {he Monros doctrins, cspnot permit. This story is sleo utively deuted at the Stats Depariment. It P: true that Bpan did send s communica- tion 1o Guatemals in rewsrd to her recognition of Cubs, and tbat the wannos in whick it was um,—bz ihe mititary oilicers attached to thosial of the Captam-Geuerst of Cubn, instead of by n accreditod diplomstic agont,—more than ity utstanco, dlspleastd the Goverument of the Iatter, bus Gustemals mada s diguitied reply, and 0 the watter eudud four montlis sko.

Steriat Corresporulence of The Chfcags Tribune, Wanmsorox, D, C., Nov. 27.—It is protty determinatoly rottled by tho Grest Omnlscicnts of aur politicat {nner-lifo that the Premdont, in nils coming mcakaga to the coming Cangross, intends to propose to that body tho recogmibion of Cuba's rights as & belligerent nation, and tho acknowledgmont in amplest terms of her belligerency. The apathy with which our eoun- try Liss horetofors regarded ths struggles of the Liberators in Cuba, for thiir freedom from an over-tho-ses dospolism, in & wonderfal pe- culisrity of public sentiment, that owes ita riro to forgetfuloens of pass persousl bistory, and ita continuanca to thoe eame, superinduced by Lhomo-iroubles of an engrossing vature.

But the timo s at band whon the everinsting fituoms of thiogs ia 1o be bronght into scttve operation, and the sontiment and spirit of a dor- mant Administration are st length revolution- 1zed nfo positive action, whose vivid results will immediately obliterato » groat deal of the timidity of the past. What has heratotors mili- tated ngaivat Cuba with us, a5 well na wsnt of thought upon the aabject, is ignorance.

" Bo ‘mtrcoz aud prevailing was this opinion that i is by no meaus certain that tho poo~ ple would not bave ranctioned thoaction of Con- gross had it chareed the Government jtuelf with the ditoct exccution of the enterprise. Desides, there was 8 vast, unpopulated tarcitary lytng batween the Miwssouri sud Sacra- mento luvors, practically wortbless without the facilities aflorded by & rsilrona for the trans- portation of persons and property. With it construction tho agricultural und mineral re- rources of tho territory could bo developed, aud seitlomeuts made whero soltlemouts wera poasiLie. Clioaper trapAportation was noeded for mails aud_ supplics for the srmy and Indians. Tho bwilling of the road was universally deemed » bold and bhazardous dudeitaking. It was nothing to the purposo to oay the difticultics disappeared in a great meas- ure after the trizl, and that tno road was con- structad at leas cost of time sud money than wes copsidered posmible, No argument can bs drawn {rom the wisdom that comes after tho fact, Tho project was not concoived for privato ends, and tue prevalent opiuton was that it could uot bo worked out by pn capital alone. It wes s natlonal work,originating in 8 natiousl vecessity, and roquiring nstional nssistanco.

True the schemo contomplated profit to Individ- uale, for wittous reasonable expectation of that tha capitsl could not hiave been obtained oor tho requisite axilt and enterpriza. Dut tho Gov- erutyent sustaiued tho enterprise to advance its own interests, and 1t endeavored to evlist pri- vato capital a8 & means of securig tho building of theroad to bo used for Governmental pur- poses. _ Whatever obligation, thoretore, reated ou the Company must dopeni! on the truo moan. 1ng of the enacimont 1teeif, viewed in the light of coutetporaneous history, [Lhe Court goea on to ccnatrue the aeta incor- poraung the Compaoy. Evou tho titlo to the original act of 1662, which seoms to Lave besn the subjoet of apecial canmderstion, dectarad tha Dational character of the work. The body of tho sct containa the expraseion that its object 1 ta promota the public interosts and wellare, and tosaccuro to the Goverumout at all kimes, but particularly in time of war, tho use and benefit of tho samo for postal, muitary, sud other purpases. 1 this bill had been equally explicit in relation totho bonds, thoro would have been no occaslon for thia auil; but even in that particular tboro is no serious diliculty in gotting at the truo wmeaning of Congross,” It proffered Inducemonts to build tho road in tho way of lands snd iuterest-bearing bonds of the Uoited States. Thero is no coatroversy about tbo torms op which the lands were granted, and the only point s tho nature sud axtent of the obligations on lll\l}ummu)‘ to pay thoss bonds. It is not doubied that TUE GOVERNMENT 18 TO I BEIMBURSED, princijal aud interént, but tho precise question is whettior tbo Company 13 required to pay the intervst befors tho waturity ot tbo priocipal. ‘Tho #olution deponda upon the meaning of the &th aud 6el soctions of the sot of 1862, and Gtn woctson of tho uct of 18G4, The mauifest pur- pase of tho 5th section of thasct of 1662 is to take a lien of tbe proverty of the Company for the ul- timato redsmption of the bonds, principal and interest, but tho way and time are fsft to further provisions. ‘Fuat the Uoverument wau expoctod, b cwo trst instance, to pay tho tuterest is clo auough, for tho 1mortgagu wos taken tu seuure thio revayment of tue bonds, together with all tho iuterest thereon paid by the Uovernment.
