From Washington.

Washington, March 29.--During the late Executive session of the Senate about 400 nominations were confirmed, nearly fifty of which were sent in by the President yesterday.

Gen. Wm. Kickey was elected Assistant Secretary of the Senate, and not Secretary, as stated. Asbury Dickens retains the latter position.

The appropriation for building the seven steam sloops will not be available until after the 1st of July.

The events in the South are occupying the Administration to-day.

G. W. Lane, recently confirmed as Judge for Alabama, will, it is said, endeavor to hold his Court at Athens.

The receipts into the Treasury last week were about $600,000. The nett balance on hand was upwards of a million and a half dollars.
