The capital of our one common country has been In n blaze to-night The Illuminations which have preceded that of this evening have been but rehearsals for this grand performance, In which the people displayed their Joy and happlneas that the hour of trial and of danger had passed, sad that the nation, one and undivided, triumphant over treason and rebellion, stands fbrtb redeemed and disenthralled. The display was highly creditable. Our wide streets and avenues are especially adapted to such exhibitions, giving a good chanca to spectators to witness the full effect. The public buildings were all splendidly Illuminated, and bands of muslo ware stationed at several of them. The Navy Department was especially brilliant, sad the front extensively draped with American flags. The Marina band was la sttendsncs here, and, together with the profuse display of fireworks, attracted the attention and admiration of a very large crowd throughout the evening. The recent Illuminations of ths War Department and President's mansion have rendered any additional description of their appearance needless They presented no additional faatures, except that on the roof at each end of the War Department there was exhibited s very large oalclnm light. In Jackson Square, opposite the White House, there was a very liberal and brilliant display of fireworks. which luted throughout the evening. The City Hal1 presented a moat brilliant appearance. Across Its front (u jets displayed the words, "Grant?Union?Sherman." The headquarters of General Augur's Department of Wuhington were also magnificently illuminated, and a fine band here discoursed most excellent music. Along the upper front of the building, extending Its whole length, wu a transparency displaying the names of ( "Grant?Thomas?Sherman?Farragut?Sheridan." At the lower entrance of the Treasury building wu a new transparency, representing a fifty dollar seven-thirty ooupon note, and underneath it the motto:?"The note of a free government, endorsed by a free people, and guaranteed by the power and wealth of all the United Slates."

The main office of the American telegraph line also presented a beautiful appearance. The office of the United States telegraph, on Fifteenth street, was also 11. lumlnated. The New Yoke Hmui.i> office, on Fourteenth street, presented a brilliant appearance, and the other newspaper offices on that street were also illuminated. Even the hotels took part in the display, and were generally brilliant with lights and draped with flags. The citizens all over the city took part in the illumination, and for a time Washington presented the appear" anoe ef a fairy realm, its dirt and dln^lnees being for the time hidden by the brilliancy of the Illumination and the oorruacatton of Are works,|which trradiated|the darkness and gloom of the evening. The Arlington House, on Arlington Heights, the former rasldenoe of General Lee, was illuminated, and attracted much attention, it being a conspicuous object from almost any point In the oity. The Lunatic Asylum, on the Rasters Branch, also presented a splendid appearanoe. These two buildings are six miles apart; but from the Capitol grounds both were visible and notabla for tha brilliancy of their appearanoe. The Illumination was unpaiallelad In this city, and has bean a brilliant success, and highly creditable to the national capital.

This result has for tome time appeared impossible, and votes have been, it seemed, pledged irrevocably against It, as it was sought to make It a oauoua rule of the majority to defeat any Inoraase of fare of the Central Railroad.

When in turn each of thee* amendment, wan rated down and it became erident that the bill would be adopted, the anguine bopea of Its opponents gars way. Senator Cole, who ia called the Father of the Fenate, rose and made a spirited, characteristic and powerful appeal against the pending measure.

It eame with a very bad grace from the champions of State rights to stand forth on thiaquestion upon reverse of tholr doctrine Further amendments were offered, all more or lea aiming at a revival of the old doctrine of pro rata, which were debated and voted down. Some tlmo past midnight debute was doe-d Senator Folger stating that he had ben made to breuk ttfe ranks of tbe friends of the Mil, and he would consent to a conclusive vow without further debate.

TBI OALLINO OP TBK VIRGINIA I.KfliSr.ATrRB?TBB KIKHT STEP TOWARDS TU RESTORATION OP THB STATE TO THE PRION. [From the Richmond Whig. April 12.] It In understood that this invtlaliou has been put forth In pursuance of the plan of proceeding assented to by Preeideut Lincoln. At all evonta It will be hailed by the great body of the people of Virginia aa the Jlrit iteep toward Ut? reinstatement./ ike Old l></minimi in (An Union. It ia probable that some of the members of the Legislature may dacllne to come. In every such case the people of the county or Senatorial district should select some influential and intelligent citizen, who Is willing to lake pert In this business, and commission htm, ss far as they can, to represent them at tbo conference. The views and purpose* of the members of the Legislature should be ascertained at otice Every ona can foresee difficulties in the way of formal action; in the beginning several complex questions ere to be met at the threshold: but "whore there Is a will there hi a way," and whatever the difficulties presented the important business must be an derm ken. The Interview Between President Lincoln and Judge Campbell. TBI SUBJECT OP THB CONSULTATION THE RESTORATION OP PEACH IN ALL THB STATES. [From the Richmond Whig, April 11] A special despatch to the New York Tribune, from Washington, dated 7th Inst, says:? The rumor that the President ia earnestly engaged in p roller of perdon to the rebel ntnlt and file gain* credence in influential quarters. It Is known that Secretary Sewacd was summoned to convene there with the President the day of his serious socldeut. (irant also telegraphed the Secretary of War, requesting that no one be permitted to visit Richmond for the prmcnt; while rumor assorts that commissi mors, oatrial or self oonstitu ted, from Alabama, Georgia and North Carolina, are in that city, and in conference with the Preeident The correspondent of the TW&une Is mistaken In locating the President at Richmond. He only remained here n few hours, and than proceeded, we believe, to ltortroes Monroe. In this connection we may say that the recent inter view between the President and Judge Campbell related te the restoration of peace in all tha Stales, and not to Virginia atone, as might bo Inferred from the brief notice of the "senscitation of olUsena" published In the Wktg ef Saturday. Whilst every one will rejoice at tha rcotoratlon ef penoe and prosper! ty In Ml the Mites, we cannot retrain from the expression of the hope that tha public men who are to take part la the reinstatement of Virginia lo hor ancient position la the sisterhood at Staton, wlH address Cham selves to that huslnaos without unnecemery delay.
