YROM A REGULAR CORRESPONDENT. Wasitxetox, April 6, 1853. In consequence of Major Stevens’ appointment as Go- vernor of the Territory of Washington, the Coast Survey office in this fcity has been placed under the immediate direction of Captain Benham. The reconnoissance of a northern route for the Pacific Railroad, has been confid- ed to Major Stevens, and he is organizing an officient company, numbering forty to fifty, and om- bracing eminent scientific gentlemen and engi neers, for that purpose, He designs starting from St. Paul's, Minnesota, ani proceeding by the most direct, practicable route to Puget’s Sound, Two or three other routes via New Mexico, &c., are to be explored by parties who will probably be under the direction of the topo graphical engineers, Not only the best route for the rail road, but also much valuable scientific information, is anticipated from these surveys. Governor Stevens, on arriving out, proposes immediately to organize the terri- torial government. There isa rumor of a change contemplated in the Cabinet—Mr. Dobbin to tnke Cushing's plaag, and Cushing to take Dobbin’s, or go abroad. No doubt this arrange. ment has at least been talked of.

THE CHARGES AGAINST GOV, RAMSEY, INDIAN SUPERINTENDENT. On motion of Mr. Semasvian, (dem.) of Ark., the Pre- sident of the United States was requested to cause to be investigated the charges of fraud and misconduct in office, alleged against Alexander Ramsey, Superinten- dent of Indian Affairs in Minnesota. ‘THE SENATE DRRATES AND THE INTELLIGENCER, The Sempte proceeded to the consideration of Mr. Badger's resolution, that the Secretary of the Senate have pubiiwbed'in the Nation!

Mr. Gwiy replied, because it was thought that would conflict with the provision of the law restraining the pur- chase and distribution of books among members. On this point a discussion followed, and finally the re solution was modified by entrusting the Secretary of the Senate with the distribution of the charts. INYORMATION WANTED RELATIVE TO THE RECENT PROCEEDSNGS OF CAPT. HOLLINS, AT SAN JUAN. Ox motion of Mr. SEWARD, (free soil) 0” New York, it was resolved that the President of the United Stataa'be requested, if in hi8 opinion it shall be compatible with the public interests, to. communicate to the Senate such official information as he may have received touching the recont transactions between Capt. Hollins, of the sfoop- of-war Cyane, and the authorities of San Juan de-Nica- gua, together with the orders and instructions which have been given to Captain Holling, in relation to the af fairs at that place. OPEN EXECUTIVE SESSIONS PROPOSED. Mr. Cuasr, (free soil) of Ohio, offered a resolution that all proceedings of the Senate shall be public and open, oxeept when matters communicated in confidence by the Presidont shall be received acd considered, and.in such other cases as the Senate, by resolution, from time to time, shail especially order. He supposed that every Senatoy understood the object and charactor of the resolution, and therefore it was necessary to say but little upon the subject. As the rules now stand, the treaties and nominations are considered in secret session. If the rules shall be altered as he proposed, treaties com- muniegted in confidence would still be considered in secret Kession; but there is m large class of treaties, in- volving important public considerations, which may be acted upon in open session. He saw no reason why de- bates on nominations of a public character should not be conducted with open doors, except in such cases where secrecy is considered absolutely necessary. Our institutions are based on the principle of publicity. Mr. Huxrer, (dem.) of Va., said this proposed an im- Portant change in the rule. As it now stands, when the Executive communicates treaties and nominations, the deliberations are socret, unless the body chooses to order otherwise. The proposition is to reverse this rule. The result will be, no more secret sessions of the Senate, Say there should be a secret soa- sion, it would be directly nosed abroad that the charac- ter of a nomihee is to be discussed, and thus an asper- sion would be thrown upon it, and the nominee would desire to know of what he is accused. So of treaties. If the Senate should go into secret session on a treaty, it would be suppored there was something especially ‘deli. cate in our foreign relations, and a question would arise affecting pence or war, and the credit and stocks of the country. He did not believe a serious amount of mischief has arisen from secret sessions. He believed that the Senate had deliberated with quite as much wisdom, and for the public interests, with closed doors, as if the. seal of secrecy had been removed, It was far safer to adhere tothe old rule, Mr. Bortanp, (dem.) of Ark., was sorry to differ from the Senator, and thought that there was no danger in subjecting any or everything to the popular scrutiny. Mr. Huntr asked—*'Do you think it better to ex; os the deliberations of the President’s Cabinet Council to public serutiny?” Mr. BoriaNb replied he would not object so far as they could be made public, He believed the popular intelli- gence was able to dispose wisely of every question which may come before the country. There should be nothing secret in the examination of a man’s character when he pcs himself for favor. The public have a right to know his standing, and whether he is fit for the office. He could not conceive it necessary that treaties should be acted on in secret, and he believed that if the doors were opened, and the reporters for the ress admitted, some treaties would not be ratified. le did not believe that under such a state of things, the treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo would have be- come the law of the land. He did not believe the Clayton and Bulwer treaty would have been ratified, and it'was his opinion that many of those who voted for these trea- ties would now be glad to reverse their yotes. Mr. Pures, (whig.) of Vt, remarked that during his experience in this body, various efforts had been made to change the rule relative to executive proceedings. To his gratification every attempt of the kind had been defeated; and he said that from the very commencement of the fenate down to ee ae day, the rule now in exist- ence has governed. They should not, with a bare quorum, undertake to change permanently the character of the Senate, and regulate the proceedings of those who are to comeatter thera, He argued further against the resolu- tion. Mr. Bort AnD was not surprised at the Senator. It was perfectly natural for one of the gentleman’s political sehool, for he understood this tobe the fundamental principle of the whig party, to take the ground that the government is separate aud apart from the people, and that therefore the people have no right to question the government. He was, however, surprised that the Sena tor from Virginia, (Mr. Hunter,) who belongs to anoth- er school, and acknowledges his responsibility to his con- stituents, should oppose the resolution. The arguments advanced were from the other side of the Atlantic, where governments hold that the people are disqualified, by want of intelligence, from discussing and considering matters relative to their own interests. Butin this country the government is based on tho intelligences of the people. If the proceedings of the Senate be right, there is no fear of the people; if wrong, then they should know it. Mr. PHeivs said he might retort on the Senator by asking him whether the Senator from Virginia, (Mr. Hunter,) is the exponent of whig principles, and whether there is not something like a family warfare in the gentleman's own ranks? If the rule requiring secret sessions is one of the fruits of whig rule, why has not the Senate, for a larger portion of sixty years democratic, abrogated .BuTizr, (dem.) of S.C. said this was not the first time such a proposition had been brought forward. It had repeatedly been urged, and always defeated by the fathers of the republic, and by Clay, Calhoun, Webster, and others, who insisted on the security of seereey. This is not a democracy; if it were, the question would be more appropriate to the occasion, ‘Weare a oontedera: tion of republican States, living under a written consti- tution. He was a friend of that people whose judgments and epinions are to be respected; but he Was not a friend of that people who are to be regarded as an ir- responsible multitude, and whose transient sentiments are to govern. He wished to preservo the government in its ancient forms and confine it to its conservative sphere; and would not, therefore, break down the land marks prescribed by our fathers. Mr. Suman, (free soil) of Mass, remarked—At the organization of the government, the legislative and executive business wore alike conducted in recret session; but in the course of the third Congress, in 1795, resolution was passed to open the doors to the public when the boly was engaged in a legislative capacity, unless in such cases as required se- crecy. Tho rule thus established has substantially con- tinned down to the present day, and the rule adopted at that time was in harmony with our institutions. The resolution now under consideration proposes to take one step further, and to open the doors, except when secrecy is required on treaties and nopinations: and to this he vas agreed—publicity is required by the spirit and ge- nius of our institutions. The Athenian, who built fis house go that all might sce what transpired in it, af- forded a fit model for the American Senate. ‘The further consideration of the resolution was post- poned until to-morrow, and after an executive session the Senate adjourned. The Senate was in secret session to-day, for about an hour altogether. Items from Baltimore, RAILROAD INTELLIGENCE—CONVERSION TO TILE RO- MISH FAITH, ETC.

THR AMENDMENT OF THE CONSTITUTION. ‘The special order being the vote on agreeing with the report of the Committee of the Whole on Mr. Vanderbilt's canal resolutions, Mr. Cornvas.(dem.) tcok the floor in a genera} expo- sition of his views, and against the proposed amendment. Mr. C.’s speeeh went so fully into detail that justicecan only be done it by a full report. He claimed that the licy of Mr. Hoffman had been fully sustained by lessrs. Dix, Bouck, and Corning, and the most distinguished’ of the’ democratic party. Mr. Cornell had ‘thougbt there were no longer sections of the democratic porty. (This remark seemed to elicit a smile of incredulity.) And he regretted to hear Mr. Loomis’ plan denounced 5 anemanation from the barnburners. He considered it an attempt to evade the responsibility rightfully presning. upon the Legislature, and to throw upon the peoplo-a. decision which the peo- ple, in their constitution, determined should be met by the Legislature itself, Mr. C. then elaborately contrast- ed the two s—that prapored by Mr. Loomis and that by Mr. Vanderbilt. Mr. Jones (dem.) followed, and gave a_ minute history of the manner in which the State, in 1842, ‘had been. compelled, by the exigency of the deficit caused by the expawion of the debt policy, to raise money. ‘The Legislature of 1842 did not stop the public works. All they did was to. provide the means of paying the debt, and preserve the credit of the State. That Legislature was one of the most enlight- ened that ever assembled within these halls, and.for their conduct the people sustained them, and the people are not ow prepared to abandon the guarantee of tha constitu- jon. Mr. Coorey (dem ) asked whether Mr. Flagg did not do all he could to destroy the public credit, rolling up all the State and municipal debts, and publishing his circular far and wide, to alarm and frighten; and with all these attacks the credit of New York stood higher than almost any other State in the.Union, and nearly aa high as that of the Union itself. The canal never was a burden to the treasury, and it nover will be if fairly dealt with. In 1842 the depression was not peculiar to this State. It extended far and wide over other States, as well as our own. The canal must be completed, and they will be completed. Does the Senator from the Ninth (Mr. Jones) ry of the Herkimer plan of tolling the rail- roads’ ill the Senator answer’ Mr. Joxes—Not at all, nor have I said so.

The Departure of Santa Anna—What Will He Do ?—Tha Colombian Republic, ete. General Santa Anna left yesterday for Mexico via St. Thomas, in the British steamer Trent, together with Dr. Hegevisch and Signor Salvador Varnés, the two Commia- sioners who arrived per last steamer to solicit his return. He is accompanied by his ‘wife and his lately married daughter, Mrs. Carlos Maillard, formerly Miss Carmite Santa Anna. There is a great feoling of grief manifested here on his departure; but Iam inclined to believe it ia more to his money bags than to the illustrious “champion of liberty,” as he is termed in some of the sycophantie addresees made to him prior to his leaving. He will only goas far as Vera Cruz, where he will issue his proclamation, and, if attended to, ho will them take the reins of government; but if not, he returns to his favorite retreat of Furbaco, to fight cocks for the re- mainder of his days. He will, no doubt, be invested (if ited) with extraordinary powers, and as he has been rd to say that he would never return to Mexico until he could govern her alone, it is rational to suppose that he has been offered this.
