CAUSES OF THE CHANGE.
One had supposed, that there was no mysti6cation In
the late changes But instead OF taking the truth,
which es on the surface, many of the Opposition par
ty are torturing their wits for more reconcile causes of
the phenomena.-Some OF their guesses are sufficient,
amusing.
Pour eremp'e.-The Providence. American has dis
covered that Mr.. Livingston is "the Grea, Lord High
Priest Of Masonry in the United States'-and that
jackson sees that the only help for him now, is to call
N the AID q the Fraternity. and he has placed the
government IN proper hands to effect that object, il Il

dissolution OF the Jackson Cabinet to the quayreis be.

leaders, under the jackson banner, for the pur oe OF
overturning Mr.. Adams administration, was one ofinte-
rest, not OF feeling or principle, and the oft-predicted
result is accomplished, that ihese two portions OF "the
grea. Nepuo"can party are now in open warfare and
engaged In deadly fray. The division between them

the General IS losing ground, p0iificaiiu, as well as
growing in6rm in body and mind, 10 such a degree as
to render 1t exceedingly doubtful if he will be able TO

some CT the Opposition prints have carried this Joke
farther than the Ekis.-They insist upon II, than Van
buren had sagacity enough to see, hat the General
was losing ground, and could not be re-eI.c,ed-and
therefore. he'd retired in time, ike " Rats running
from a falling house" or as some have said, from
a sinking ship"
The Albany Daily .aduertiser throws in lis mite

that the President cannot be re-sieefed- but " that
