~ to administer the government! There is great
ouarrelnc among the jackson party, or, In other
words, among the various parties which have COM
bined for the purpose of electing the General. 1t
is now discovered that the cement which was relied
on to keen them in state of Conference IS nsuffic-
ent and the symptoms Of disunlon and separation
are too strong to be mistaken. 1t is said abroad,
that when Mr. Randolph heard Of the new cabinet,
he said that he should now resign his commission in
the ne-that he will no longer serve under the
Jackson standard. 1t is said that Major Noah went
away happy, with promise that he should have
permanent appointment in the custom house OF New
York .--One of the current rumours OF the day is,
that the changes will be less numerous than was ex
pected, and that they will not extend to the subor
dnate departments. | think there is considerable
Improvement in the health of Mr.. lngham since he
has been fixed on for the treasury department.
understand that the senate yesterday confirmed
the nomination of Judge Hopkinson, circumstance
which will doubtless, give great satisfaction in Phil
adelphia.
MIR. Hemphill is here and Mr.. Baylies, Of Mas
sachusetts, was d yisiter IN the house today-ln
fact the Jackson men from every part OF the coun-
try-at least, such of them conceive it possible
that their names may have reached the ears OF Gen
eral jackson, or that they may have chance Of
presenting TO him the great zeal and ability with
which they have advocated his election, are flock
ing to worship the rising sun.
There was birth-night ball last night, at which
Mr. Adams was present. He looked very well,
and in excellent spirits General jackson was not
there.
The house of representatives have to-day order
ed bill to be engrossed for third reading to-mor-
row, which provides pensions for all who served 10
the navy and army of the u States during the war
of the revolution, provided they had served nine
months. 1t includes not only the regular troops,
but even the militia and volunteers. At IS suppos-
ed that, under this bill, the applications Tor pen
sons will scarcely be less than so or 100 GOO so
that the rush upon the treasury, in case OF the pas
sage of the BILL will be immense. think 1t doubt
full whether the bill will pass the senate.
At present, public attention is SO much liked by
the men of the new cabinet, that there has been
scarcely time to bestow thought on the probable
course of the measures which they may pursue.
The complexion of the t,blnet Is certainly antl-tar-
if and anti-interna Improvement. DO not intend
to say that the new administration will come out In
hostility to that policy that would be to fly in the
face of the country. They will confine themselves
to the recommendation of udIcous tariff, and will
advise an abatement Of the activity with which in
terna Improvement has been pursued as system,
and thus will they endeavor gradually to weaken and
dnte away the spirit of the country IN relation to
these measures. ButSaiter all, it is to congress that
we must look and if the people shall still be dis
posed to carry on that which has been pronounced
our true policy. the executive depal smens will not
be able even should they attempt 1t, to check the
current.' a6.
