Thesurvey is not yet completad, and it may be two or threa weeks hefore the oMicial report is sent im. This work is baiag done (under the superintendence of Captain Patzerson, the hydrographic officer of the Coast Survey) by Assistant OlarenceFendail.for Gen. Michler, of the U.S. Engineering corp: Missioner of Public Buildings) with a view to the ultimate tmprovement of the chanuel o thetiver. Nothing officis! in regard to the re. sults of the survey has thas far transpired, but it fs thought the report will be of si a cbaracter as will induce Geo.

Tum Conrinmation?.—The snvoancement (made by the Sraz exclusively yestertsy) that the Senate after its protricted session bad confirmed the nommations ot Horace Greeley as Minister to Austria; Gen, Capron 8s Commissioner of Agriculture, aud A. C. Hunt Governor of Colorado Territory, crested some surprise from the fact that it had been supposed that these nominations having besa made at the July sessio® Wouid have to be sent in anew. it was known that some of the Senators were of ttatopinion, but it seems thar the Senate, after 1ull discussion @ecided that the present continuation of way com- need on the 4th of March last. It is anderstood that General Capron had but three opposing votes, and that the con- firmation of Mr. Greeley was pretry warmly opposed by Mr. Tipton. Lt is believed that Mr. Greeley will not sccept the position, 1? 19 UNDEReTOOD that the President regards the :esston of Ma'ch last as ended when Cov- gress adjourned 'n July, and that “he nomina- tions sent im to the Semace expired a: that time. We may possibly therefore decline to commis- sion the appointees confirmed by the Senate yesterday, onthe ground that they were not Jegally before that body.
