WHOLE NO. 6673, AFFAIRS IN WASHINGTON. "Whe Completion of the President's Message ‘The Ostend Indian Report ‘The Tariff, de, de. OUR WASHINGTON CORRESPONDENCE. ‘ Wasutnoron, Nov. 29, 1854. "The Result of the Ostend Confirence—How the Ad- ministration Regurd it—Cuba and the Presiden- fiat Race in 1856—Sloop of war Albany—The Sandwich Islands. Among the politicians who have just arrived in ‘town is the Hon. Lynn Boyd, the Speaker of the House of Representatives: These are busy times @mong the clerks in all the departments, preparing ‘statistics and facts for the various reports, The public printer is already at work upon some of these documents ‘The great question of the coming session will be, “Cuba or not?” It is the policy of the ad miuistra- ‘tion to make the ‘‘Queen of the Antilles” the great vugbear, upon which the session shall spend its en- ‘tire force. I say bugbear, because it is not the do- wire of the administration that any definite action ‘shoul? be had upon this subject, but that it shall be agitated, debated and talked about 20 as to raise an excitemsnt throughout the Union, which shall last till after the next Presidential contest. Tho Con- ference at Ostend was tie first step for accompMsh- ing this object. The result of this conferencs has “been Isid before the Pres!dent, wo has re‘urned a reply to those who composed it. The propositions ad recommendations of these belligerent American Ministers were, as I learn, an follows:— Ist. That Cuba, from locality, naturally helengs tothe United States, and reccssity demands that she should possess it. 2d. That the United States makes an cffer to Spsin to purchase Cuba—cffering s liberal sum— which, in tie eyes of the whole world, hail appear @ jost and fair equivalent. $d. Spain will refuse. The United States shall then make this refagel a matter of inquiry, and de- ‘mand of Spain the reason of her non-acceptance of oar offer. 4th. It she puts her refusal upon the ground that she wants Cuba. for commercial purposes, to reject ‘this statement as false and hypocritical, inasmuch a8 Spain is not acommerial power, and cannot need Cuba for its commerial advantages. Then, to ‘Assume tliat the real object in retaining Cuba is that Eogland, France and Spain may enjoy it ass maritime fortification agaiust the commerce of the United States, in the event of a successfal te-mina- tion of the war in the East, and that national ne- cessity demands tbat we should have it, to thwart ‘avy euch combination against our interests in the gulf. Tre above was the tone and aud:tance of the communication to the President, the whole pro- gramme coming from the brain of Mr. Soalé, and ‘by him ard Mr. Daniel fo-ord through the Ostend metting. This, moreover, isthe key expianatory ofthe action of the French gove: nment toward Mr. Soulé, placing him in the position of an enemy to stheir- interests and their State. It is the purse and aword policy, which they hoped would reveive the genoticn of their-government, The administration, ‘itis pretty well understood» replied, to the Ostend Wartiore; but the naturo is reply is yes conjec- ture. I understand from sources which at least are entitled to mach consideratioz, that the Ostend pro- gramme vas only in part adopted. It was con- ceded as proper to make Spain the liberal offer re. commended, and in case of her refuadl, tien to de- ‘mand most peremptorily, indemnity in the Biack Warror affair; to back this demand with the sword, and if in this way it msy used, to unaheath it at the demand of Congress. It is believed that the visit of «Mr. Piatt, the Secretary of our legation at Paris, is ‘upon this mstter, and that he brings the final deci. alon of Spain, whether or not she will dispose of Caba at ay price. It was probably awaiting this visit of Mr. Piatt, that the President has left till so late a day the portion of his message relating to our foreign affairs, a suggestion strengthened by the fact taat he commenced’ eo industriously, as soon sa this gentleman arrived, to hunt up all corres- pondence and law affe.ting these relations, for put- ting the final touch tothe message. This matter, ‘then, of Cuba havirg been #0 prettily conducted that i is now fairly before the administration, the Presidest, it is thought, will talk firmly of it in his -Mersoge—not advising immediate and decisive ac tion, for that would spvil his game, but so to speak of it as to give it an important position before the -coming Congress, and leave it for them to spout and battle upon till their adjournment in March next. This, they reason, will enwrap the whole nation in ® war ex-itement— the question of “ Caba or not,” im 1856, throwing Nebraska and Know Nothing is- ~ees in the shade, avd the war party carry the present administration again to victory, amid the clangor of war trumpets and the clashing of arms. ‘This gives different dire: tions to the desires of the “Ostend Congress and the administration. The refu- gees at Ostend were probably sincere in their desire to plupgé this country in a war at all hazards, to seize Cuba, plundering Spaia and humbling France. With Mr. Soulé such a consummation would be balm to his pereonal hatred to that country, for reasons which date back to his early life, and which hatred probably now more shapes his action in this matter thon his love to American interests, regard” Jess of private and personal wrongs. What is said of Mr. Sonlé can be said of most, if not all, who composed the Ostend Ovongress. Were they su- preme in their autiority, war to the hilt would no doubt be given us at once. Beyond this, it {s bat fair to suppose they have no aim or desire. But with the administration it is different. The coa- test of 1856 alone interests them, with which in Importance a!l Cuba {s insignificant and worthless. So far from really cariog for the annexation of Cubs, they would dis-snrex Texas, or any other Stare, if this course of action would give them 8 victory in 1856. So long, then, a3 Caba can be . Beld asthe ace of tramps in the next Presidontiat -@nwe, s0 long it will be cherished and held back, to aweep the board at thelast. So long as the Con @ress at Ostend he.ps to shuffle the pack that this special trump shall tarn up, s0 long will all the members of that Congress be fm their course as the beat assistants of ‘he admivist-ation. Ihave not heard to-dey of any despatch autnenti- cating whet I spoke of yesterday from Norfolk in ‘regard to the sloop of war Albany. From present appearances there will be s quorum -of members present at the opesing of the session on Mondsy next, snd the various reports will be {aid before it without delay. It has been published that a treaty for the annex: ‘ation 6f the Sandwich Islan‘is is here, signed by all the parties necewary for this, excepting the Pre- sident. This, no doubt, was put forth by some one who draws more upon his fancy thaa his facts. It is not beileved that the nezotiations for the ‘Paarl ~of the Pacific” have proceeded #0 far as this. i Nau.

This | is by far the ab'est and most interesting documeut whici bas emanated from the Indien Barean for a long time. It discloses frauds upon frauds under the last administration, the publication of which will astonish even the perpetrators themselves, 80 bold and unscrupulous have been their character. | The report also eaters at length iatoan exposure | of the stupendous fraud attempted on the Dele- |} ware Indians, by the land sharke wh) laid } off and rold the lots in the town of Leayooworth— | pocketing the proceeds. This town ia situaied in 8 tract of land ceded to the United States in tratt, by the Delawares, to be soli to the highest bidder | for their use and benefit. Of course the wholesale, which has taken place, was fradolent, tho venders | having no color of titlk—and the Indian Bureau | will claim the property as the trustees for the Ia- | @iane, Colonel M. catis upon the War De 2artment | to aid him in protecting the rights of the red man, and exposes, as he should do, the perpetrators o the fraud. The great amount of legislation upon | the subject of Icdian relations, the Jaige number of Indian treaties being constantly entered into with the different tribes, aad tne constant and pe-se- vering efforta by agents and others to circum: | vent the law in order to plunder the treasory, render the Indian offi e one of the most responsible, perplexing and laborious offices under the tederal governmert, and Qolonel Manypenny has now the gratitude of the country for the very able aud faith- fal manner in which he has discharged its onerous duties. The reason assigned why the President was un- willing for Col. J. W. Forney to resign his office ag | Cierk of the House of Representatives, is that the | Presiden! desired he (Forney) should organize. the next Congress, which he will have the right to do by virtue of his office as Clerk to the present Con- gress. Why the President should desire this, I cannot imagine, unless it. be that he anticipates | another New Jersey case. ‘The rumer that Senator Atchison would not be | bere daring the present session of Congresa, proves | to be falso, as be is now enroute for Washington, | and will be here by Menday next. So saya a pri- | vate despatch. Mr. Piatt, Secretary of Legation at Paris, left here this morning for the West, on a short visit to his friende. He brings a copy of a letter addressed hy Mr. Soulé to Louls Napoleon, which will appear in @sbort time in the columns of the London Times. Mr. Soulé saye, that as the Emperor has seen proper to mabe the insult offered him a personal, and not a national ene, he will pay his respects to his Highnesg in return, and he gives @ few coiumns of the most scathing abuse a Frenchmen ever penned. It is be- Jieved by the few here who have bad a peep at this Tich morceau, that it is f fr. Soulé’s desiga, having | shot tte French Minister, to demand a fire at the body of the Em eror himself. So look out for som thing spicy by the next steamer. > OTHER NEWSPAPER OORRESPONDENCE. {Correspondence of the Philadelphia Ledger. 4 Wasmxarox, Nov. 29, 1854. The Leading Topics of the Forthcoming Presidential dovee Sa parte Rit nad | next iG ed— By | oldation*and Texas Orelitors Bills. y ‘The President’s message: ts not yet fully written, and there may be a chance of its being forwarded io the Northern cities, to be delivered in time for its publication | on the same day it is sent to Congress; but this I r ther think doubtful. T have already given you the principal topics of the message, which, recapitulated, arv chiefly these:— Peaceable relations with all the world. Adherence to our rights and to the Monroe doctrine. No appreiension of & rupture, either with France, England or Spain; yet rigid adhereuce to every principle avowed in the previous message of Gen, Picrce, and in his inaugural. ~ Recommendations for increasing the army and navy. Additional steamships and fortilications. A revision of the tariff, if time should admit. | No ex parte legislation. | Recommendation of fire-proof buildings for State, Navy, and War Departments. Civilization and civil government for the Indians. | Substitution of provisions and clothing for moner. Equalization of pensions. Prevention of frauds. Recommendation to amend Cobbs’ Land Graduation vill. ‘An extension of the commission to settle private land | claims in California. A Boundary Commission to vettle the limits of Wash- | ii ‘Territory. Eettiement with the Bzitish Hudson's Bay and Puget Sound Companies. se : Extension of the nsefulness of the Patont O: Establishment of a Law Department of th@govern- ment, “under the superintendence of the ey: General. Regulation of fecs of Marshals and Clorks of United States District and Cizoult Courts. Having thus ventured to guess at the recommenda- tions of the chief executive, allow mo to venture a fow remarks op asion of the Congress which will open on mouday next. T believe the tariff will not be touched, though there are those who still persist in ex parte logislation for coal | and iron, to encourage the building of railroads, In the present state of the money market, and with the la Amount of outstanding railroad debts, legislation would not add to the credit of the railroad companies, while it would seriously interfere with the already sufficiently depressed iron business. The probability, therefore, is that nothing will be done in the premises. The Homestead bill will probatly fall between tho two | houses. The bill, as carried*down to the House from tho Senate, will be considerably amended in the Honse, and the Senate will not recede, and mo committee of con- | ference will be able to agree. The Land graduation, with restrictions in favor of actual settlers, as wecom: mended in the fortheom! pase both houses. ; Nothing will be done in regard to the Nebraska bill which has answered some of the election parposos ol parties, but which, in truth, is very little cared for by | anybody, and practically acquiesced in by tho great | maas of the people everywhere. Thoae that have op- | jored the bill at the last elections will be but too happy, Pact called upon to, verify all they Bayo vowed agerss¢ it. So much easier is it to make speeches than to act. | ‘The passage of the French Spoliation bill and of the ‘Texas Creditors bill, aside from its intrinsic justice, would be a reliof to tho whole community, but to co: merce especially. Efforts will be made to carry both. [Correspondence of tho North American.] Wastincaon, Nov. 23, The Law Depavtment—Was Against Holand —The wich Islands—The Know Nothings.

It was during his seconi term that the office of the Solfeitor of the sury was creat- ed; but not at his desire, for he advised am ealargeraont of the functions of the Attorney General, and that officer rosiated an increase of labor without an expansion, which Javier incident formed no part of tne President's plan. ‘Lhe wishes of the first law authority of the administra- tion more influence with Senate than tho re- commendation of the President.

TELEGRAPHIC. THE PRESSURE IN THE MONEY MARKET—WHAT SHALL BE DONE WITH THE: SURPLUS REVENUE ?—THE AD MINISTRATION AND ITS SUPPORTERS—THE MESSAGE" — CABINET OHANGES, ETC. ” ‘Wasmvetoy, Dee. 1, 1854, The pressure on the monoy market is beginning to be understood in the Cabinet, though the result of their deliberations thereon is not likely to be ‘satisfactory to ‘Wall street. Letters have been received from New, York and Boston urging relief, by unlocking some of the millions held by the government. Mesers, Cushing and Marey aro“in fae vor of adopting some plan by which the Treasury may safely be depleted; but Guthrie and Jeff. Davis are op- posed to it, and the President sides with them. Mr. Guthrie believes the acme of statesmanship to be the locking up of all the specie in the country in the vaults of the Sub-Treasury, and to this glorious end all his energies are directed. By taking out of ctroulation xome forty millions of goli—cqual to a capital of at least one hundred millions—the prosperity of the coun- try is to be demonstrated. And certainly the argument & government as we now have, is strong enough to defy al dangers. Some of the friends of the administration—the KiteLen Cabinet and camp followers—feay that the democrats in Congress will openly denounce the President and his Cabinet, 20 as to clear themselves from the wrovk. Bat Mr. Pierco is in no wise alarmed. He declares that “General Cass, Douglas, Bright, and Hunter, will unite and carry my administration triumphantly through.” Any man of common sense, however, sees that no de- fice himself by supporting the falling and disgraced ad- Those members who have played their last card and been defeated in their attempts to be re-elected, may continue to profess friendship and grab at the plunder. This will be natural, But any man who has hopes of a future will shun the Cabinet, Those who do nof will commit political suicide. If Messrs. Hunter, Douglas, Cass and Bright really have proffered their sorvices to the admin- istration, they will discover that leaders in this country can only command euceess when they follow in the wal of public opinion. The people of the United States are too intelligent to be driven, and those so-called leaders will make the discovery if they attempt it. It is known here that many members havo joined Know Nothing lodges sineo the adjourument, and the administration will have this additional element to con- tend against, even in the prosent Congress. ‘The message will be flatulent, yet peaceable. Even the annexation of the Sandwich Islands meets with no favor at present.

Wo are authorised to state that the President will despatch a special messenger to-morrov morning with copies of the mossage for the press of Baltimore, Phila- delphia, New York and Boston. The packages nealot will be delivered to the postmasters in the several cities named, and editors will be supplied with copies as soon as the reading of the message shall have been commenceed at the capitol. In addition to the above cities wo learn that advance copies of the message will be sent to Rich- mond, but to no other place. Tne message makes seven columns of the Unton, and extraordiffary care has beea taken to keep {ts contents most sacredly private. All speculation as to its tone and views are entirely gratui- tous. ‘We learn that the annual reports of the Secretaries are all in a good state of forwardness, but none are yet in readiness for the printer.
