What, in the twedledum" powes Of last
year was wasteful extravaganza, with the
twedledee" of the present day is nothing
more than informing the people! when no
man in his senses and out of his politics,
would wag finger or waste a thought upon
one member in preference to the othsr.
Boston Colrier.
WASHINGTON, De-. IA.
Mr.. Calhoun appeared in the SeIate to-
day, and the Senate being equally divided
in baIottng for a chaplain-for DurEn 81,
for Johns 2l-Mr. Calhoun gave hp cast
ing vote for Johns, by which he was Elected.
The jackson men of the west, had brought
on Durhin, to run for chaplain. He is an
eloquent man, of the Methodist churci, and
great efforts were made to elect him Mr..
Johns is an Episcopalian, brother of the
representative from Delaware, and support
ed by the NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. Members.
The vote of MI Calhoun struck disnay into
the Jackson ranks, because, takinglt in con-
nexion with some remark which has fallen
from him since his arrival, disapprovig Of the
Presidents message, especially in hat part
which touches on the charter of the United
States bank, they deem it evidene that he
is not disposed to go heartily With them.
They are doubtful as to his curse, and
and their suspicious have not been whisper
ed so cautiously but that they haze escaped
to other ears than their own. Another
subject of modification and mistust among
the Jackson men, is the delay which has
taken place in the arrival of tie Virginia
members. This delay, althoughreasonably
to be accounted for, is interpreted by some
of the Jackson men as indicating something
more than Indifference about tie result of
certain nominations and measures, in which
their aid is calculated on. Whether their
suspicious will assume any more definite
| form, remains to be seen.
! On the subject Of the nominations, there
| is considerable uneasiness amoIg the friends
ofthe administration. 1t is Understood that
not only to Kendall and Hill will there be
strong and probably efectua opposition,
but that David Henshaw canno be carried
| through, ard that there will be much diff
Guilty to get a majority of the senate TO ac-
quesce in the appointment of Swartwout,
| Noah, and some others of the SINE class.
There are still six senators a5seni, viz: the
two Virginia senators, Mr.. Webster, and
Mr.. Drown Of North Carolina, elected in the
place Of Mr.. Branch; and Mississippi and
Delaware have yet to elect senator each,
to fill the vacancies caused by the death of
Mr.. Reed and the translation of Mr.. M'Lane.
There are AZ members present, of which
some knowing politicians count % as GER
tainly opposed to most of the nominations
have named. In this condition of parties,
presume that Gen. Jackson will refrain from
sending in his nominations at present; and
even that delay may not strengthen him
sufficiently, if the rumor be correct that Mr..
Tazewell is rot disposed to give his sanction
to the nominations. Philadelphia u. s. Gaz.
The East Room" of the Presidential
Mansion, is said to be fitted up in style of
magni6cence and even of extravaganza,
never seen on this side of the Atlantic.
This is all consistent with the we'll known
ideas of economy and retrenchment, which
are the exclusive attributes of the present
administration. How strangely manners and
principles change with circumstances! The
economical Mr.. Adams, with his New Eng
land habits of economy, was run down by
the cry of extravaganza, wastefulness, and
prodlgaity, by the very men who are now
expanding thousands of the public money,
to enable his successor, in his domestic es-
Establishment, to rival the splendor of Euro
pean potentates.-Boston Courier.
