From Washington.

Washington, March 23.
--Col. Dudley Mann, now in Washington, is about starting for Europe, on business connected with the consummation of his"Great Eastern" steamer enterprise.

The President has been so beset with office-seekers as to be able to ride out only twice since coming into office.

He is receiving no visits whatever to-day, either of friendship or business.

The nomination of Archibald Campbell, of the Wheeling Intelligencer, as Postmaster at that place, was confirmed by the Senate Saturday.
