Assuming you are referring to the local running of DC, rather than the affairs of the President and Congress...
Article One, Section Eight of the United States Constitution grants the U.S. Congress ultimate authority over Washington, D.C. The District of Columbia did not have an elected city government until the passage of the 1973 Home Rule Act. The Act devolved certain Congressional powers over the District to a local government administered by an elected mayor, currently Adrian Fenty, and the thirteen-member Council of the District of Columbia. However, Congress retains the right to review and overturn laws created by the city council and intervene in local affairs.

How many marbles fit in the capitol building?
No one has accurately estimated the interior volume of the entire US Capitol, however, we do know the volume of the central rotunda.
The Rotunda is a circular room in the center of the building beneath the Capitol dome. It is 96 feet in diameter and rises 180 feet from the floor to the canopy, with a volume of approximately 1.3 million cubic feet.
So how many marbles can fit in the Rotunda? A Lot.
Seriously, here is the math.
First som assumptions need to be defined.
Marbles are assumed to be regular spheres of constant size.
Marbles will pack into a closest pack arrangement. This assumes 26% of the volume is wasted (i.e. the gaps between the closely packed spheres).
Assume each marble is 1/2 inch in diameter.
Volume of a sphere is 4/3 *pi * radius cubed
V = 1.33333 * 3.14159 * .25 *.25 * .25
V = 0.065449628 inches cubed.
Converting this to cubic feet we get
V = 3.78759421 × 10-5 cubic feet
Now calculate the "wasted space" in the Rotundra as 24% we get
Avail Vol = 76% * 1.3 million cubic feet
Avail Vol = 988,000 cubic feet.
Dividing Avail Vol by the vol of each marble and we get...
n = 988000 / 3.78759421 × 10-5
n= 2.60851597 × 1010 marbles
As I said before, that's a lot of marbles

Why was the southern half of D.C. given back to Virginia?
Alexandria, Virginia instantly regretted losing it‘s state citizenship which disenfranchised them 100%. no Presidential vote, no Congressional representation, and their local government was appointed by the President and Congress. It was the seat of Fairfax County, Virginia until it was ceded to the federal government. On top of that federal law required all federal buildings to be built north of the Potomac River in what was once Maryland. That wasn’t intended as a snub but about the practicality of that times. The Potomac at the time could only be crossed by barge or boat, so dividing the federal in two geographically was unwise. So the people of Alexandria lost a lot and got literally nothing in return. When you account for the fact that the Virginia only made up 39% of the federal district the decision naturally made sense. The big debate was over was it Constitutional to change the makeup of the federal district not was it proper to do so.
Also slavery played a minor part too but didn‘t influence the decision. Alexandria was a hub for the slave trade, abolitionists didn’t like that slaves were sold and owned within the boundaries of Washington D.C. Virginia also was more than happy to regain the Alexandria area because it meant more pro-slave representation both on a state level and in Congress.
In time the area of DC returned to Virginia would become vitally important to the federal government. They built the Pentagon and Arlington National Cemetery in retroceeded area of Virginia that was for a few decades part of Washington DC.
The debate over the rights of citizens of Washington DC didn’t end with the retrocession of Alexandria in 1846. It goes on till this day, DC still has no vote in Congress and only limited self government. It did finally get the right to vote in Presidential elections in the 1960s.
