WASHINGTON, March Is, l645.


The Cabinet has at last made move, and the
following appointments have been made, namely:
Marcus Morton, Outstanding candidate of the de-
mocrats OF Massachusetts, appointed Collector of
the Port of Boston; General Mcneil, Surveyor of
Boston; and Robert Rantou United States District
Attorney. II is also reported that General White
OF Maine, has been appointed Navy Agent at Bos-
ton, and considerable number of persons express
great indignation thereat, for some reason or ano-
Their Some wonder if old Massachusetts can't
find office seekers enough for all the offices the
State that they are to have men appointed from
other States while others think Gen. White is the
last man that should be appointed, though they
don't vouchsafe any reasons which may, however,
be " as plenty as black ckberres."


The quid nuncs meanwhile are speculating lusti-
ly as 10 the action of the Cabinet, and what ap-
polntments are going to be made: Each one is IN
is to fall, and the New Yorkers particularly wish to
know whether the President will show his hand as
to that city, previous to the charter election;
maintaining that he should not de 80, but delay un-
nj after the election; and others saying that he
should Immediately come out and make whatever
removals he ought TO make, else he will miss the
hgHFe. A great deal OF anxiety is also expressed TO
kNSW the principles upon which President Polk
wQ$soceed In ing removals, and many specu-
atons, and surmises, and guesses, are formed
thereupon, to all OF which the only reply that can
be made, is-the Cabinet has not yet decided upon
any principle


Among the appointments which are spoken of
here as being likely to be made beside that of Mr..
Elmore, tor Eng land, Mr. Harris is mentioned as
being the probable recipient OF the appointment OF
Charge to Austria, and he Is said TO have returned
to Nashville TO pack up his traps.


l have learned that the editorship of "the or

of the Richmond Enquirer, bat refused, which
fate it has likewise met from John F H. Claiborne,

to that at present obtaining. An arrangement is
said to have been made, which only requires con-
the editorial chair Of that concern. and his place
10 be supplied by two or three other gentlemen
whose names are not mentioned This may be
true. and upon the source from which derived the
information place great reliance though il appears
at the same time to be rather unlikely that Mr..
Blair would sell out, or that there should be those
well enough provided with cash to meet the terms
which he would undoubtedly demand. A short
time, however, will probably reveal the secret, and
1t will be seen which of the many reports OF the
purchase of the Globe and Madison,an, and rhe es.

all the influence OF the administration be brought
TO bear to obtain tor 1t the Congressional printing,
and under new management II would most probably
obtain II on the faith of its promising well, and
thus uniting the whole party upon II in the House
of Representatives. Mr.. Benton, however, is a
large item, who must be taken into conslde ration
In all speculations regarding the Globe, and with
the dissatlsfactions existing among the iquss and
their varlons struggles ter power, the Influence
which the Globe exerts Is an element OF considera
BILE importance, and 1t is not to be supposed that
Mr.. Benton would wish to lose the control Of such
an auxiliary in the turtherance OF his ambitious
aspirations for himself, or tc act as check upon
the powers that be- by tear OF Its opposition and IN
tuence. Whether, therefore, he will suffer the
control OF lis columns to pass out Of his power is
matter which may be supposed TO be In consldera-

The news of the opposition of the Register
Zones paper) TO annexation, and the curious
grounds on which it places its opposition, which
must and would effectuay bar annexation alto
gether, as no plan could be devised which would
meet the views developed in that paper, has excl.
ted considerable remark and discussion here, and
the strenuous Texas men say, that though Mr..
Jones controls the colums OF, and writes for, the
Register Gas Benton does the Globe, yet that Mr..
Jones s'the people of Texas, nor does he, in
this particular, represent their teelings and they
say that the news OF the passage OF the
resolutions reaches Texas, he will be compelled to
call an extra session of the Texan Congress. tor if
he were disposed to dispose OF and defeat annexa-
ton, the people won't let him and bowie knives
are too plenty there, and their use too frequently
practiced to allow President Jones to remain Pre-
sident long, if he proved refractory. This is the
manner in which they talk, and they say that Tex
ss will accept the resolutions with open arms The
opponents OF the measure, on the other hand, are
equally sanguine that she will not accept the terms
offered, and consequently will not be annexed, and
quite a number exclaim, 81 knew 1t, knew 1t;
always said Texas would not accept, and so she
won't be annexed after ALL" and congratulate
themselves, and their friends and cronles. and take
sundry drinks on the strength OF this Ito them)
cheering and conclusive intelligence Of the failure
OF annexation.
