WASHINGTON NEWS A —_ - Tax Prorosep Taroven Ratinoap Coxsrc- TIox.—We are satisfied that it is the aim of the managers of the Baltimo: Ratna’) Company, if possible, to # mning the through passengers through the sity of Wash- ington if they can compass the ¢ hactraamt of their bill to authorize the construction of their its present shape. In that shape, it authorizes | them to select between tunneling Capitol Hill and running to a depot to be erected at Buz- zard’s Point to accommodate the travel from: the Orange, and, Alexandria railroad with a branch running to the Southern Line's wharfjat the foot of Sixth street on the one hand, and their own plan of running around the city, crossing the Eastern Branch ata point above the Washington navy-yard, and locating their depot either on the Eastern Branch or onthe | 4 Potomac below Washington, as they may prefer. If it should pass in that shape, as a matter of course they will make the sclection most profit- able to themselves; and that scheme will not be one that makes their depot inour midst. It is the interest of those who control the policy of that company to grant as few facilities and create as few inducements for travelers to stop here before reaching Baltimore as possible. | G While we should be last to advocate tho policy | of ereating obstructions to the prompt transit of through-travelers through Washington, we know well that the interests of our city require | that every facility to accommodate those who would stop here should be provided for, and daly secured, in the bill in question. To that eng we trust that the bill will be so amended as to compel the company to locate | their through passenger river-side depot within the limits of our own city. It will make a very heavy pecuniary difference against Washington city if the company be allowed to carry out their evident plan, though they are said to pro- fess indifference as to the point of its location. It is high time that those interested in the fu- ture of the Federal Metropolis should be exeri- ing themselves to prevent the consummation of the scheme of the Baltimore and Ohio Rail- road Company, in connection with this matter, only to be prevented by explaining to members of Congress, who aro to vote on the question, the injurions effects of not compelling the com- | pany to locate the river depot in the limits of | Washington city. | Apropos—the government has spent a very | large sum to construct an United States Mili- tary and Nayal insane hospital in the District | of Columbia, and the plan of the railroad com- | pany, if assented to, will entirely defeat the purpose of privacy so intimately connected with the success of such an establishment. The | railroad extension, if crossing the eastern | branch, would necessarily be carried through | the grounds of the Asylum, and would compel | the Government either to abandon the present | location of the hospital or construct a long and very high wall between that and the railroad. | Mrirary Maps.—We are in receipt of the following maps just completed under the super- | vision of Capt. A. A. Humphreys, the Chief of | the Burean of Exploration and Surveys of the | War Department: Map of Nebraska and Da- | cotah Territories. by Lieut. G@. K. Warren, of the corps of Topographical Engineers, from ex- plorations made by him in 1855-6, while at- | tached to the staff of Brevet Brigader General | W. 8. Harney. when that officer commanded the Sioux expedition, and in 1857, under the | immediate direction of the Bureau above men- j tioned. This is gotten up on a scale of about j twenty miles to the inch, and is very replete in | detail, thereby becoming valuable for refer- | ence. From the well known ability of Licut. | Warren, and, also, of the Chief of the Bureau, Capt. Humphrey, there can be but little doubt of its accuracy, not only in the general features, but to the greatest attainable degree in the | minutive. ! Also, a map of the Territorics of the United States between the Mississippi river and the Pacific coast and Mexico and the British pos- | sessions. This was prepared at the order of | Hon. Jefferson Davis, late Secretary of War, to accompany reports of explorations for a Pacific railroad route, and was compiled by Licutenant Warren from authorized explorations, and other reliable data, under the direction of Brevet Major W. H. Emory, in 1854, and Capt. A. A. Humphreys, in 1855-6-7. . Of its general ascn- racy and great importance for reference no mention is nevessary, as the time and care spent in its preparation leave no room to doubt them Its scale is two and one-eighth inches to the hundred miles, and its lithographic execution | highly skillful. : Tur Peracuay Exrepitiox.—The Navy De- | partwent is in receipt of the following commu- nication by this morning's mail : Frac Sure St. Lawrence, Off Montevideo, December 13, 1858.

Moreover, because of the proximity of Cuba to our coast, and its position at the entrance of the Mexican Gulf, the resolution farther asserts that this Govern- ‘ment cannot remain neutral under any policy which should tend to separate Cuba from Span- ish dominion in favor of any other foreign Power. = Mr. Collamer then addressed the Senate in opposition to the acquisition of Cuba. He con- tended that Cuba was not necessary for our defence, that-its inhabitants were not suscep- tible of assimilation with our own, and wore unfit to become citizens of this country. He denied that the requisition of Caba would tend to stop the slave trade, and contended that the Southern States wanted it in order to strength- en and perpetuate slavery. Mr. Slidell thought there was a small party at the South in favor of re-oponing. the slave trade, and if the French apprentice system continued that pes would inerease. if the ntleman would introduce a bill authorizing ‘is Government to seize imported Africans he would give it his support. Mr. Collamer continued, and denounced the acquisition of Cubs as a dangerous, preposter- ous, and absurd policy. Mr. Mallory followed in advocacy of the bill, and by reference to the geographical position of Cuba, clearly demonstrated its importance to this country as a means of defence. He also brought to the attention of tho Senate facts which plainly indicate the existing necessity for prompt action by this Government, if we would prevent Cuba falling into the hands of a stronger foreign power, w! hostile feelings towards the United States are well known. Mr Mallory gave way, and the Senate ad- journed. - Is tue IHovsr. yesterday, the motion to sus- pend the rules to allow Mr. Phillips to intro- duce his tariff bill was not agreed to—yeas 122, nays 91; two-thirds being required.

An evening session being held, Mr. Abbott condemned the alleged extravagance of the Ad- ministration. Messrs. Foster, Gilmer, Otero and Jackson obtained leave to print » hes. Mr. Lovejoy complained that the anti-slavery fecling was less rampant than it used to be, and he thought the country was degenerating in morals. Mr. Hatch advocated the improvement of lake harbors.
