WASHINGTON CITY: SATURDAY May 30, 1857. EVENING STAR. SPIRIT OF THE MORNING PRESS. The Intelligencer, in commenting upon the ovation to General Walker in New Orleans, thinks— “« Thot one who has deliberately renounced the high calling and proud name of a ‘citizen of the United States’? to become a roving adventurer wader a far other banner than that of the stripes and the stars, and who has thus expatriated him- self in contravention of our municipal law, as well as in defiance of the law of all civilized na- tions, should, at the close of a career marked by the carnage of his deluded followers and the op- pression of those to whom he came in the guise ofa chim plaudits cf ‘‘ten thousand’? voicés in the streets of an American city, cannot be regarded as avery happy sagury for either the intelligence, hum ity of patriotism of those who participated in such ill-directed acclamations.** The Union is oceupied with news matters and correspondence “Wes tHe Goverxuext WorKS HERE ARE Fixisusp’’ —is a common expression among those who reflect little upon the progress of the country in agriculture, the arts, indus- | trial improvements, &e., &e. It involves an entire misapprehension of a fact assuredly in- eidental to the future of Washington, if the Union holds together and this city continues to be the Seat of its Government. So long as these two things continue, * the Government Works here’ will never be “ finished.”” As our coun- try increases anywhere, in population; as new railroads, farms, water-courses, &c., are open- ed; as more machinery, steamboats, ships. &c., come into use—all requiring the transaction of more business on the Government's behalf in this city—so must the edifices and facilities for its transaction multiply.

All the districts as faras heard from elect the democratic members fo Congress—same as last year. LyNcusurG, May 29.—Bocock, dem., for Con- lives sacritved at ine shrine of pestilence and pi- ratieal warfare. For of the thousands who flocked to his standard, probably not five hundred survive at this hour; and of this scanty remnant perhaps one-half are doomed to life-long disease, and the others are demoralized in principle, and for life settled in purpose. barr Add to this The misery that has heen inflicted upon families, the damage done to our nati reputation and to public morals, the sla’ and destruction wrought In a neighboring and friendly country, and the wealth expended, with the many indescribable evils that have followed and will yet follow in the wake of the expedition, and who, with a human impulse ia his heart can fail to regard the whole business with horror and unqualified condemnation? And then what has been achieved? Not an acre of territory has been acquired. Nota cent of returns for the tens of thonsands of dollars expended. Nota single foot added to the area of ljberty to compensate for the unjust means employed professedly for that ob- ject. The history of the expedition from the first is one of expenditure, slaughter, demoralization | and—utter failure. « Walker and his companions ought to be tried and punished by their own countrymen for their bold and persistent violations of their country’s -laws; but we have a very faint expectation that they will be, albeit our national reputation de- mands their indictment at the hands of the United States Government. It cannot now be pleaded that Walker and his followers have expatriated themselves or are beyond the reach of the laws of the United States; and it surely will not be con- tended that their temporary absence from the country screens them from the operation of their country’s laws, now that they have returned. It is easy to see where such a doctrine would lead. But, although the Government may be indisposed or unable to vindicate the national reputation by te ; Pigs . t 264. ¥ ‘dem.. for the punishment of these its citizens, we indulge | £T@S5, du; Wie ker .

Now, thousands are required to the same end From the removal of the seat of government to Washington city until to-day, the Govern- ment has been altering, extending, building. aud in every conceivable way adding to the fa cilities for the transaction of its business here: inereasing its annual expenses of that descrip- tion pari pats with the increase of the popu- Jation of the country and of its industrial re- seurces Yet. to-day, the pressure upon its cramped facilities here is almost as great as at any moment in the last half century. No bet- ter type of the expansion of our national terri- tery, industry. numbers. power and interests is to be conceived, than is involved in the growth of these facilities and the population of the Federal metropolis. But two or three years ago the Interior Department proper was cooped up ina private edifice on F street. Already the magnificent wing of the Patent Office build- ing. subsequently completed for its temporary accommodation. is absolutely required for the purposes for which it was originally designed— for the accommodation of branches of the Pat- ent Office Burean, which expands so rapidly in importance as a business institation. In the next year or two a new structure for the accommodation of the Interior Department must necessarily be commenced, whieh. when | finished must be a larger and more elaborate pile than the whole building. in a single wing of which its affairs are now transacted; also new ftate, Navy and War Department buildings, each one of which must be larger. and cost ten times as mach as all three of the buildings now thus occupied A new City Prison of at least double the ca- pacity of the present one, must also be almost at once built, with all the improvements made necessary by the increased skill, genius and desperation of rascality over those qualities of the raseality of the times when the present one waz built. We might mention a dozen other public improvements which all reflecting and | informed persons are well aware must be con- structed here within the next decade, by theend of which. the advance the country will have made in the meanwhile will as forcibly suggest the necessity for new ones as yet undreamed of. He who entertains the idea that the Gov- ernment can ever cease putting up great struc- tures and making vast improvement here, must surely bo looking forward to the advent of the era when omr country will cease gtowing in power, commerce, @gricultare, population, and in the arts and sciences. Tux Exp Ox’r.—There is a moral in the end of Walker's burg!arious raid on Nicaragua that should be enforced on the American public ! mind in these times, by all really interested in the future character of the population of the United States. Hence the persistence with | which we keep the subject before the § readers, under a sense of moral duty which has not permitted us to flag an instant for long years in its discharge. We rejoice to know that | our position on this subject and the earnestness with which it was defended has done at least its hare in bringing about the expulsien of those who disgraced the name of Americans from Nicaragua. In so doing. we have done much towards reopening the Niouraguan isthmus route to the commerce and travel of our countrymen, as well as to demonstrate to the comprehension of all Americans. that those who would getsuch % ise! | tinued. Capt. Tyler, Mr. Jno. R. Staples, Rev initiated in wrong, and so defiant of morals, pa- triotism and international justice, can be perma- nently successful ; and no temporary or partial success should blind a nation to its iniquitous and | unjustifiable character. * Nor with any man who retains his humanity | can the most vociferous applause or the most flat tering ovations c nsate for the consciousness having violated his country’s laws, or stifle, in the hours of solitude and thought, the recollec- tion of the misery he has inflicted and the lives he has sacrificed at the shrine of his reckless am- bition. With all the glorification that greeted the fillibuster at New Orleans, and though he may escape the punishment his deeds deserve, General Walker is not to be envied, neither are those who have soup led the sinews of his op- erations and seduced men to join his ranks whose bones now lie bleaching on the soil of Nicaragu ‘The mortification of utter failure cannot be o} erated from their minds, any more than the recol- | lection of the fearful cost of that failure can pass from the public mind.

Our citizens generally will doubtless be pleased to learn that Georgetown ix soon to be graced again with at least one handsome military com- pany which it can call its own. Some eight or | ten years since, on all public occasions, ourstreets were all alive with the numbers. and handsomne- Wy adorned with the brilliant uniforms of our | three companies, viz: The Potomac Dragoons, | Independent Giays, and Morgan Riflemen. From | some cause, however, they all disbanded, aid ever since we have been compelled. however re- luetant, to acknowledge that there was not patri- otism enough among our 10,000 inhabitants to keep up one good military pany, asx an orna- meut to the town, or safeguard for protection in case of riot or anything of the kind. The re- Proach, we are pleased to know, is soon to be wiped out.

Waters; Second do —Andrew Jackson Jones; First Sergeant— Jobn B. Davis; Second do. James A.
