Since Mr. Buchanan has been induced to decide
not to leave the cabinet speculation is atloat to
who shall take the vacant seat on the bench 1t IS
presumed the appointment will be given to Pennsyl
vana, but the appointing powers, 1t is SAID, are
not entirely OF that opinion. There are no dis
sensons in the cabinet among any OF its members,
as widely rumored, and the coming message will no.
give so much alarm to the tarfftes as has been ex
pected-the voice OF Pennsylvania has been heard


Our foreign relations in very critical state ;
and the principal portion oil the message, to be de-
voted TO this subject, will be looked Tor with much
interest Mexico, Texas, Oregon, California, Eng
| land, all demand attention. And 1t is upon these
great questions oil internationally policy that THIS adn


nstration stand or fall The responsibility Is
great, and II requires great Wisdom and great pru-
| dence on the part of the President and Congress,
| whether we are TO have peace or war.
A call will be made immediately on the assembling
of Congress- TO know what instructions, II any, have
been gwen TO Mr.. McLane, and 1t any dispatches
have teen received from HIM, IN relation TO the Ore
gon controversy, which Is assuming an alarming at
tltude Ii is believed that Mr.. McLane has received
no further instructions than were gwen him his
departure, with contingent promise OF more. And
It may be further added, that no official letters
have been received from our minister on the sub
Ject.


:, In the civil department, the administration is mo-
wing on auetly-but great discomfort is being mani
tested among portions of the democratic party from
various sections OF the country, who come here,
arising chiefly from the retaining IN Office OF SO many
inefficient men, and the disappointment of honest
claimants in being denied Justice at the doors OF the
Treasury Some changes have been lately made in
the Indian Office for the better but a loud and con-
tlnuous appeal is coming up from all quarters tor
change in the Comptrollers department. and in some
OF the Auditors offices. The cry is not for the sue
cesslon, but for a reform Remove the incompetent
head and appoint whom you please-any change
must be for the better. Gosto lhe First Comptrolers
office for Justice, and the reply is, "overwhelmed
with hbusness"-papers in confusion, and no system
but wool l-gatherlng.


The election of Mi. Turney to the Senate iromTen-
nessee, has given great dspeasure TO the President
and his immediate friends here. Mr.. Nicholson
was Mr. Polks candidate, and his confidential
chessman to be, in the Senate. II may be that Mr..
Nicholson will be consoed tor his disappointment,
by the mission to Russia. As the new Senator isan
ancient confederate OF Cave Johnson, strong hopes
are entertained OF preserving his democrauc iaith
unshaken.


The early stage of the session, az whlch SO many


raat snh;acts will he taken up, will give greater in
5srest ,han usual 70 the opening OF Congress, and
we, irG nnmbsr of persons will be attracted here,
Co. ,r;rs ~ canses from different sections OF the


uneru,be 80, Mexican claimants the Texan
oo aoan, and oil interested, the French Spoiatlon
Gis;m,ants and Agents. and others. The metropolis
Is expected 10 be very gay and lively all the winter,
and from the extensive improvements lately made
here in hotels and boarding houses, the residences
for strangers will be more agreeable


Colonel Benton and MIR. Bagby are the only Sc
majors In the city We have slight touch OF cold
weather and canvass-backs making their ap-
pearance.
