FRom WAsH1SGroN.-Wc understand II is set
tied that Hon. ROBERT J. WALKER, Senator from
Mississippi, is to be appointed Secretary Of State
This is deplorable. Mr. Walker is frothy de-
claimer Of very moderate talents-a diluted Ben
ton He is not such man as the nation needs
in that important post, and is recommended 10
the post only by his suppleness to Tyler and his
body-and-soul devotion to the Annexation of
Texas.


We had nduged hopes that Mr.. Tyler would
see fit to call JOHN c. CALHOUN to the head OF his
Cabinet. That would be selection to be proud
of, and, as his motives in accepting would be ap-
preciated and respected on every side, we believe
Mr.. Calhoun would not have declined. The idea
of Mr. WEBsrER's returning to Mr.. Tyler's Cab-
net was preposterous from the first.


We hear that a Virginia relative of the late
Mr.. Upshur, OF no eminence, has been selected
for Secretary Of the Navy-so Gen. R. NJ. SAuN-
DERsi is disappointed again, and Hon. R. NJ. I.
HUNTER remains in retirement.
