TO be settling down into quiet and respectability.
The excitement which attended the formation o
the Cabinet-ther first movements--the nomina
tions first made TO the Senate-seems to be rapid,
subsiding into quiet and content.


The general complexion of affairs, and of thu
policy Of the new administration, seems to cores
pond very much with the intimations which cor
RESPONDENT of ours made before the arrival of Mr.
| Polk at Washington. 1t was then represented tha
Mr. Polk had made up his mind to represent al
the cligues in his administration, and accordingly
he has dealt out his favors on that principle. We
think that this general view has been carried out
1t is true according to Mr. Polk's own view Of it.
The most troublesome men and material OF great
cligues are the leaders. Now it seems that Mr.
Polk has got over that difficulty by overlooking
them altogether. Wright, Benton, Calhoun, Cass,
are all thrown overheard. 1t is true Mr.. Polk oi.
fered any seat in his cabinet to Mr. Wright, but he
like wise man, threw himself overheard, and with
him followed number Of the friends OF Van Blu.
ren so that the whole of the recent rivals for the
favor of the democracy at the Baltimore Conven-
tion are now on the same boat.


| In dealing out the new appointments SO far as
they have gone, Mr.. Polk and his advisers have
followed the same principles OF recognising all the
various ciques, whilst giving the Offices to
persons occupying subordinate position In
them No doubt there will be great deal
of private grumbling but what is that in party OF
over million Every thing in the present aspect
of affairs indicates peace, and quiet, and repose
| That was what we wanted The ambitious aspl-
| rants for the succession cannot do much for two
| or three years, and in the meantime the admins
traton may be able to give attention to public
affairs, aud practical direction 10 the govern
ment. This is very desirable. We trust that the
President will keep sharp look out on MIR. Bu.
chanan, and make him do his duty. Also on Mr..
Marcy. Marcy is rather slippery fellow. Par
ticularly let him look after Gave Johnson by no
means forgetting MIR. Bancroft, Mr.. Walker, and
the rest OF them.
