FROM WASHINGTON.
WASHINGTON, March 31, It4l4.—General Grant,
accompanied by his personal staff, and General
Meade. accomi anied by Captain Meade, arrived
here at noon to-day. Atter consultation at the
War Department, Ger eral Grant and staff took the
evening train for Baltimore to go thence to Fortress
Monroe to consult with General Butler. General
Meade remained here.
General Ord, who was summoned from the
West by General Grant is still here.
The Senate and House Naval Committee were in
j•int session to-day. They took up the matter of
a Wfstern Navy Yard, and agreed to have the
Committee go West to locate a site. The Commit
tee will probably leave in the course of a week or
ten days.
. -
Thera is a proposition now to locate two navy
yards, melt New London for wooden vessels and
one at Leagne Island for iron-clads.
The 1• ecietary of the Navy, in response to a
senate resolution oleic quay, says no transfers of
seamen from the army to the navy have been
effected under the - recent law of Congress, and
thirty-five - vessels are now awaiting their comple
ments of men. Not only are these vessels await
ing crews, but the terms of many seamen now in
the service have expired, and the men are detained
to man our ships, though justly entitled to their
discharge. Were they not detained, many of the
vessels now on blockade duty would go out of ser-
Vice. This state of things is to be dep'ored, and is
in great measure, if not entirely, attributable to
- unfortunate legislation, the enroilment ait of last
Congress having so utterly ignored the naval ser
vice that enlistments in that service were - not per
mitted to be credited on the quotas of those com
munities from which they were drawn when the
draft came to be enforced. In addition to these
circumstances, the distribution of extraordinary
bounties for army enlistments, while not a dollar
was paid to the sailor, operated to discredit the
naval service, and held out strong inducements
for the military service. Earnest appeals were
made by the executives of maritime States, aad
many of the municipal authorities on this subject,
claiming that naval recruits ought instly to be
-Ir:edited on their quotas under the draft, but it was
not allowed, and,•consegnen:ly, the local influ
ences became adverse to naval enlistments, and
the navy itself Biagi began to feel the effects of the
policy. Vessels which were inter ded for foreign
service, to protect our commerce, some of which
should have sailed last autumn, are yet without
their complements of men. A complement for our
wbole forte is required for the blockade.
The Secretary says there is undoubtedly a re
luctance on the part of the military officers to part
with any portion of their commands, but the true
interest of the country is the paramount considera
tion, and should govern on that question. The
Secretary recommends, in order to supply the
existing deficiency in the navy, that mariners, of
not lesS than two years' service, should be trans
ferred tram the army to the navy, without having
any reduction from the prize mousy to which they
may become entitled; that so much of the amenda
tory enrollment act as withholds bounty from
sailors transferred to the army be repealed. If
legAiltv ion, as he believes to be the case,. has car
ried mariners into the military service, they should
be taken out by the most summary process, and
transferred to the navy, where their nautical edu
cation makes them indispensable, but which edu
cation Tenders them no more valuable than lands
men for the duty of a soldier.
There are 162 Colonels now commonding Bri
..
gades, without including those temporarily cora•
mending in the absence of proper Brigade com
manders. They are thus distributed: In the
Army of the Potomac, 33, Department of the Cum
berland, 26; Department of the South, 7; of West
Virginia,ll; of Tennessee, 23; of Arkansas, 12; of
31 =sae, ; of the Gulf, - 16; of Washington. 12; of
Ohio, 14; of Virginia and North Carolina, 7.
Captain K. J. Aech, for some months past Chief
of Cavalry in the Department of the Northwest,
has been ordered to Washington to serve in the
Cavalry Bureau.
It appears from an official communication of
the Secretary of War that the strength of our army
in Kansas and the Indian Territory, subject to the
orders of Gen. Curtis, is about 16,000,men.

The Committee on Water reported an ordinance
mating an appropriation of 5430,000 for the pur
pose of extending the wharf and laying pipe,
and erectieg a stand pipe for the Delaware
Water Works, for the purpose of benefiting the
people of Kensington in the supply of pure
water.
Mr. Wetherill took strong grounds in opposition
to the ordinance. He stated that a careful analysis
of the waters of the Delaware by Chief Engineer
Casein proved that the water in the Delaware was
impure. He thought that for less money than that
asked - for to complete the Improvements suggested
in she Kensington WaterWorkE, the people of Ken
sington could be supplied with pure and whole
some water from the Schuylkill River
Mr. Davis thought that the time occupied in ma
king the castings and laying pipe, .kc., fromFair
mount to the. Kensington Water Works, would
consume a period of eighteen months or two years.
He proceeded to show from the reports of different
Chief Engineers, that it was not practicable to
carry water from the Fairmount Works to Ken
sington. In view of the fact that the people of
Kensington have been afflicted with disease and
death in consequence of theimpurity of the water,
we should at least make the • experiment, and see
whether the proposed plan of improving the Water
Works at Kensington will not meet the end desired.
Let is be tried, even if the 5.30,000 are expended in
vain.
Dr. Uhler made some statements regarding the
impurity of the Delaware water, and" soo'xe in
opposition to the proposed
.plan of . furnishing
water to Remington from Fairmount.- The people
of Ken' in gton are suffering, and $3O, COO is a small
amount to give the people of Kensington their
rights, as far as a supply of pure water is con
cerned
Mr. Witherill moved that the ordinance be re
ferred back to the Committee on Water, with in
structions to request the Chief Engineer to report
a plan wheieby the Kensington. Water Works may
be supplied with water from the River Schuylkill.
Agreed to.
The bill from COMM on Council authorizing a re

unanimously confirmed.
An ordinance providing for placing telegraphic
