Inc noao'utn,ent o. the Chief rlayrate of the
n,nn~eaitt- has led 70 opinions, that are worthy ss
notice. II has been esuitingy iaid by the s-sieras
and The opinion has been 1ighty advocated by forur
:" the republicans, that the election of w. H. Ca5e
Is federal triumph that f,ne of the republicans
W.T., lu?pnrtcd Dim, are Abandoning their former ho-
pnprlhe principles; that chifu is aring in the re-
pdbtleaH party; ald thar the time is far dunt
when Virginia like ths ag.ated ilte Of Penn(ylva-
Ma, haii exhibit nodette, tertn quid and teach

Il is true, that Mr.. Cahsli, though he u, elected
by t,e leg lature. eleftJ 5y majority Of its
republican members. OF the % or 80 members
who iid contribute the federal force of ,he e-
gtlsture, fcsrc1ly :han waited for Alexander
kFRie. Let tiiis number then be de1u Bed from Mr.
MRlg's blios, and the remaining % from Mr.
Cabers, and it IS that will leave the former
majority oil 10 republican The latter.
Ii is true alto, that many Of the federahts of this
city have exprsiIci an unexpe3ed exaation on the
e!ectIou Of Mr.. Cabcl We ring (fay ;hey)
