Friendly Spirit of ths Bey of Tunis Toward the United States, Wasuinaton, Nov. 15, 1871. ‘The calamity on boara the steamer Franklin, from Stettin, will be thoroughly silted by the govern- ment, and Secretary Boutwell to-day instructed Collector Murphy to proceed at once with the tnves- tigation, It is suggested that the cholera was only cholera morbus, caused by overcrowding, bad food and want of ventilation, as 690 steerage passengers are more than the ship can comfortably accommo- date. Re-erection of Government Chica, Supervising Architect Mullett, of the Treasury Department, returned this evening from Chicago, where he bas been, by the direction of Secretary Boutwell, to look into the néeds of the government tn the way of new public oulldings to replace those destroyed and to meet the wants that are growing ones in spite of the fire. He will be ready Buildings ia to submit his report tomorrow for the in- formation of the Secretary and the Pres- ident, who personally takes a great interest in all that relates to the acorched metropolis, The report will take the strongest ground in favor of retataing the federal ofices in the South Division, very near to, if not upon, the spot where tiey lately stood. Mr. Mul- lett, from personat observation, believes the site to be as conventent as any’the government can select tu any other part of the city, and that its removal would in consequence bea gratuitous injury to the property interests in the burned ous section. In this there 13 a concurrence of opinion between President Grant, Mr. Boutwell, the Senators and kepresenta- tives from [il!nots and Speaker Blaine, who, as the oifcial representative, in some measure, of the Lower House of Congress, has been asked to use his good oMlcés in securing indirect but substantiat aid to the city through an appropriation large enough to set the United States Custom House, Courts, Post OMice, &c., respectably on thelr feet.

Mr. Mullete expects to spend from four to five mullons before the new buildings are whoily finished, but no more will be asked for at the next session than will pay for land enough to make up a whole square, proba- bly a million dollars, and get the work well startgd.
