that the Court Wtll no longer be harasseo WILn arguments on demurrers, to unsustainable in- dictments in the case of Dr.. Watkins, as the Grand Jury to-day, after an examination of Mir. Southard, has found bill, which, it is understood, will stand, and the accused will go to trial on the Jdcts found in the present. ment. It is. however, the opinion of the counsel for Dr. Watkins, that the facts set forth in the indictment cannot be sustained before jury. by sufficient evidence to pro duce conviction. Whether this be correct opinion or not, Icannot take upon myself to decide. 84

 MT. Sontllard has greatly improved in his health and his appearance. Although he has lost flesh, he considers that loss to be rather an advantage than an injury, to his health ; and his eye being clear and lively, and his face having upon it the ruddy tinge ofhealth, he has reason to congratulate himself on the effects of retirement from duties perplexing as those were which he had to perform as Head of the Navy Department. ea,e.

 Mr. Jenks, of the Boston Bulletin, is in this city, and am told, although do not pre- of his visit, that his views of men and things, politically speaking. have undergone some change since his arrival. If they have been CuduHCuS tuC CIbduHC ID TdtHt:T uUIdSOEdUlG IU the present Administration than otherwise. and tits surmised by some who have conver- sed with him at the Hotel, that his tone will be much moderated on his return to Boston. MT. Stambaugh, late of the Harrisburg Re porter, is also here, and is also mal-con- tent. rt.o

 That we are about to have newspaper es- tablished in this city is pretty certain, and that it will take up Mr. Van Buren as it's candidate. This must divide the patronage of the Administration, and injure the Tele- graph. which is perhaps it's secondary object.

 An attempt is to be made, to turn out MT. St. Clair Clarke, iron, his situation as Clerk of the House of Representatives, and some of the members who are opposed to him are now busy in organizing the opposition so as to make it effectual. But as Mir. Clarke is a valuable officer. takes no part in politics, and performs the duties of his station better than they have ever been performed before, it is hoped that the efforts to displace him will be foiled. It is the intention of those who op. pose him, to run MT. Hobbie, Representa- tive from New York, in the last Congress, and son-in.law of Gen. ROot.-Boston Put.

 Scene ct Waskington.-A letter from Wash ington, ofthe 18th of June, describes beauti. fll pageantry which had taken place in the course of the week. Some time since the President made visit to the Female Catholic Seminary of Georgetown, usually called . the nunnery;' and the young ladies. tastefully and uniformly dressed, formed in line, and, with their matrons heading the column, and bringing up the rear, marched to the Presi- dents House, and there made him return of respect. It was an interesting spectacle.- The uniform was snow white, blue cape, bon nets trimmed with blue ribbon, each lady car rying parasol.-RickmonG Eng. tIi

 A fact will exhibit the concert and har,no- ny which exists between the President and MT. Van Buren,, MT. Harris, the Navy Agent from Boston, now in Washington as witness in the case of Dr. Watkins, was according 10 rumour, to be removed. A MT. Prince is said to have been applicant for the situation, and was assured ny Mr. Van Buren' that he should have 1t, and might return home in full confidence that his commission should be sent to him. Colonel Towson, a friend of MT. Halr ris, on hearing inc fact named, is rep resented as having gone to General Jackson to obtain information, and if the report was true, 10 remonstrate. General Jackson assured him there must be some mistake in the busi- ness and at the request of Col. Towson, a messenger was sent to Mir. Van, Buren; or, as the story runs, Mir. Donaldson went, when it was discovered that acommission for MT. Prince was actually made out. Itis scarcely necessary to add. that the commission was cancelled. the applicant was disappointed, and the incumbent keeps his situation, Ru-l mour saith nothing about the manner in which General Jackson and Mr. Van B1ren settled their difference.-N.yY.
