WASELUMTON, May .4
From, private sources, believed to be entirely
reliable, it is ascertained that Virginia, of her
self, does not meditate an advance on Wash
ington, that subject being for the consideration
of the Confederate States. Their throwing
of troops into Virginia is said to be in antici
pation of a declaration of war by the Southern
Congress, as well as au-apprehension that the
gathering of so large a military force here is
designed, ultimately, to invade, the. South.
The Post Office Department, after carrying
into effect its past orders as to offices, will
chiefly confine its action to supplying vacancies
by death and resignations, and to 'removals for
cause. This is deemed a proper tribute to the
patriotism and loyalty of the people of the
loyal States, in view of the nevi and controling
issues of Government.
The War Deprrement especially keeps its
officers employed night and day. An immense
amount of business is transacted. The tele
graphic wire leading directly to the Chief
Clerk's room is both convenient and, time tow
log, and is constantly employed in, the trans
mission and receipt of messages.
The Administration is not a little amused at
the representations made in the papers of New
York and elsewhere, that it is sluggish and not
sufficiently active, in view of the present crisis.
They point to the fact that Fort Pickens .and
all the'forte in the Gulf, and Fortress
. Monroe :
and Fort Mllenry, are fully reinforced and
supplied, a blockade actually organized, the,
capital of the country securely guarded ; and: a
formidable army ready for any emergency ; ,_
And, besides these things, the', strengening
the Navy with' the least possible . delay.
The II S steamer r Pawnee left this port this
morning for a cruise in the Potomac and, to be
. •
on the look 'out.
The' Alexandrians are expecting that, the
Government will take possession of the POst
Office and Custom House there. The wharves
•
are deserted; owing to - the blockade of the .
Chesapeake.
The United Btates Minister. to Portugal, Mr,
Harvey, leaves for his post to-night.
There is no truth in the statement that Hon.
C. 3. Faulkner, our Minister, to France, pre
seated the Confederate Commissioners at the
Imperial Court His official connections with
the French mission ceased before thee. Confed
erate Commissioners left this country.
An application has been made by the diplo
matic corps at the Department of State, and the
following points relative to the southern block
ade have been ascertained:
First—Vessels lying in blockaded portawhen
the blockade took effect, will be allowed area
Boilable time to depart.
Second—Vessels bringing emigrants, though
they had no notice of the announcement of the
blockade, will not be allowed to enter, block
aded ports. As emigrants and that class of
persons from abroad come to the United States
chiefly to settle in the Northern' and North 7
western States, it will be better, for thera.to
enter at an,open port, and thence make their
way to their .destination„ than to encounter the
dangers and casualties incident to the insui
reotionau'ecindition of the Gulftitlies.
