CABINET DIVISIONS

II is very evident that here are at present
three parties IN tho Cabinet, each OF which
will seek TO elevate It's fayorlte to tue Presi-
dency after the term Of the present incumbent
shalt have expired unless indeed, the demon.
STATIONS Of public opinion should induce one
of them to lay aside his pretensions. The one
TO whom we refer Is General Jackson himself
Efforts have already been made TO sound pub
lie opinion as to the probability, as well as 10
the propriety OF his reelection but thei t0nlins-
ton has met with so few responding voices.
and has been received with such utter differ
ence by some, and unqualified disappropaton
by Others Of his friends, that it is more than
probable he will be Withdrawn from the can.
yass. The truth IS, he entered into office not
only with an implied, but with an express under
standing tina, he would retire at the end Of his
first term. And his character for candor, as
we'll as his reputed indifference for Office re.
quires that he should not under the Disgusting
cant of "neither seeking nor declining oftic TO
permit his name second time 10 be presented
to the American people. In the Cabinet, hi'
party is said TO consist of Branch and Eaton !;
both of whom it is thought will send in their
allegiance 0 Mr.. Van Buren, should the Gen
eral decline , reelection. Poor Mr.. Calhoun
will find himself in lean minority of one
among the officials, and that one the least res
pected of them alive mean Mr.. Secretary
lngham. The friends of Henry Clay have
nothing TO fear from any one but Van Buren,.
The heavy vote which he viii inevitably oh.
am in New York, will always render him
formidable opponent to any man Coupled
with his interest in that State, 1t is quite GER
tam that he is immensely popular in several OF
the Southern States-parlicu!arly in those
which we're arden, supporters Of Mr.. Crawford,
which will not vote for Mr.. Clay, and which
cannot vote for John c. Calhoun, while the
Of his base con duct toward Mr.
Craw ford shall exist. Mr.. Calhoun cannot be
certain Of the vote Of but a single stSte 10 the
Union. His double-dealing, hypocIncaI course
al one time The friend Of Nit. Adams, and al
another his opponent-ai oae session of Con-
gress the advocate, and at another The denonn-
Ger of the Tariff-while Secretary OF War the
jealous friend of internal improvements, 10 be
made under the authority of the general 60
vernment, and Young against the very same
20 licy as SENATORIAL prove him to be WIN
out fixed principles OF national pollcy-or II ne
possesses them not firm and honest enough TO
defend his views when be thinks they may
perchance conflict with his popularity. Every
circumstance indicates thatthe struggle VIII
be between Henry Clay and Martin Van buren,
10 the friends Of the former we say be active
united aud yigilant, aad success will crow" you
efforts. Let US, if possible elevate to the Cn'e'
Nagistracy OF our country once more, a man VINO
{ daIes to he honest in the worst OF times VINO
