nocent, the sckly, and his assuming the manage
ment of the Globe newspaper, by way OF Bran
dreth pill or Thomp sonian bath In his disorder, in
dictate the extreme terror with which the admins
tration of Mr. Van Buren, have been struck by the
recent political results in Virginia and elsewhere
Ever since the nomination of General Harrison
and the perfect union of the opposition party
produced by that event, disaster has followed disas
ter in the ranks Of the administration Defeated in
Connecticut-defcated in Rhode Island-dcfeated in
yirgina-yyith strong indications of defeat through
out the other states, every event BODIES, have
heretofore predicted, most disastrous and dis
graceful defeat to the party of Mr.. Van Buren, in
November next.
Feeling this fate upon them, the convention at
Baltimore broke up in confusion-and hence we see
the resignation of Mr. Kendall and the prospect Of
a total route to the whole party. No doubt Mr..
Kendall assumes the management of the Globe with
the hope of being able, by his talents, to stem the
tide there is setting in against the admin stratior
partv We know his vanity and his tactics liz
will endeavor te change the pending ISSUE by max
ing IL a question the banking system-and not or
the merits Of General Harrison and the dement's o.
MIR. Van Buren-but he will be disappointed and
defeated The locofoco party is breaking to pieces
every day-the retreat of Mr.. Van Buren, to Kinder.
hook rapidly approaching -and the election of Gene.
raj Harrison almost certain.
In this state of things il Is wise for the present
men in power to consider and decide on their hes
policy during the short time they yet possess
mower. Ifthey have any OF that instinct which AZ.

all the consolation aud sympathy we have TO snare

The discussion on the successor 20 q enoral Harri-
