WASHINGTON, Feb. 2, 1874.


With the opening of the present month the inte-
resting campaign of the season may be said to be-
gin the luled excitement Of the last presidential
campaign awakes anew. The augeries of the ad-
vent Of the 4th Of March are getting abroad, and
while knowing and anxious ones whisper in secret
the forebodings of coming events, more disnte-
rested politicians talk, loudly and wisely, Of the ex-
pected appointments.


The President elect will be at Washington on or
about the day after the electoral votes counted
in the House of Representatives, which will be
done on the second Wednesday of February. the
18th inst. He has not determined on any of his
Cabinet, but he has signifed in words, too legibly
to be overlooked, his determination TO appoint no
cansidate tor the Presidency to any Cabinet place.
And moreover, that save one, no gentleman Of the
present Tyler Cabinet can be expected to remain.
OF all these movements you shall have, hereafter,
to date, the most explicit intelligence without any
rumors unworthy TO be gazetted


The Texas question will of course agitate the
public mind for the next fortnight, and the action
of the Senate is looked tor with great anxiety by
land speculators and others, and Mr.. Richie in
particular.


Mr.. Archer will report tomorrow Monday
from the Committee on Foreign Affairs 0duersely.
to the joint resolution as passed by the House He
argues the point IN a constitutional view altoge-
thcr, ard dismlsses II on that grOnnd more than
a matter OF expediency.


A debate Will spriRg up immediately, as there IS
time to be lost. The present bill will be lost by
some six votes, certain. II is possible that Mr.
Benton will, at early stage Of the debate, offer
a substitute, which may be more acceptable to
| some of the democrats who opposed to the
present bill Some OF your New York cotempo-
rares have set down Mr.. Rivrs in favor Of the
! bill, He is decidedly and determinedly opposed,
and will make a speech against it, almost imme-
| dlately.


| The Senate will not. it is understood, act upon
| very many of Mr.. Tyler's appointments, now be-
| fore, and soon to be laid before the Senate-they
think the public service will not suffer by thirty
! days durance, when they will allow Mr. Polk to
| select his own officers.


His accideney, (Mr. Tyler) as the wags call
him, has exactly thirty days to remain in Office, and
kind friend Saturday last, it is said, sent
him an hour-gass, TO remind him of his passing
power; the descent to Immortality on an inclined
plane will be very rapid in his case.
The Oregon question will be settled In the House
tomorrow. Mr. Calhoun's continued illness has
prevented, most likely, any further action on this
negotiation with Mr. Pakenham at present.
have seen letter from Mr.. Ritchie-he s
coming here to congratulate Mr. Polk in about
two weeks-he goes il strong for Stevenson as Sc
| cretary Of State.


The weather is cold but beautiful and the stran-
gers are beginning TO arrive-the men to look after
Offices and the women to flock to the parties Mr..
| Pakenham last week gave the most select and ele
CANT party ever given since the days Of Sir Charles
Vaughan He Is extremely popular. l.
