5rla The impression is growing more strong here


every day, that Mr. Polk is playing deep game for


reelection. He has never avowed tsuch aidesIgn


to his cabnet for the fact is well lknown, that he


has little association with any Of them except with
Marcy and Cave johnson. He is indebted TO Mr.


Walker for his nomlnatlon, and one day Mr. w.

tween them. He does! consult Mr.. johnson,
and is somewhat influenced by him, but none 9TH

through which Mr. Polk must be approached. He
is man Of iIIimilable ambition. Cold and ;satuT-

taste letters, 100 SUSPICIOUS c0HHQepce,
he has but one absorbing passion, and that he has
gfatied thus far BY career of extraordinary sue

he is of the right temperament TO succeed in poll
tics. And this is ali he cares for. Aside from his
immediate household doubt whether there is one
human being he loves. There are few with whom
he has any intimacy-less still in whom be has
confidence. and this includes hundreds among The
leaders of his party and many very his person.
