Rumors Of Appointments, Removals, sc sc.
For several DAYS past, the town has been overrun
with rumors of removals and appointments in the
ca tom hou,e-ot Concentrations AT Washington
rouo.e among the polltlcians-and the formation of
new parties, new ce'uues, new combinations, new
lotteries, of all kinds sorts and sizes.
Ole rnmor has removed Mr., Curtis, the present
very efficient Collector, and appointed Mr.. p Hal
let m his place; another says that General Ward, of
Westchester is the man third has turned out Mr..
Stwell from the office of Marshall, and appointed
James Kelly in his place, fourth has put aside Og-
den Hoffman, the u. S. District Attorney, and filled
the vacancy with the veriable John Smith, counsel
Tor at law at Smhville, of Smith county, Coney
Island In short, there to be no end to these
rumors and reports. Only one thing seems to be
certain; that is the appointment OF friend George"
TO be naval sterekeeper at Brooklyn.
These rumors all very natural. The extraor-
binary and overwhelming revolution in politics,
which has been developed in Ohio, New York, and
halt the Unlon-wlth the prospect of a like change
in Michigana and Massachusetts, has thrown men,po-
litcians, diques, and parties of all kinds into unut
terable confusion.
AT Washington, according to our private advices,
everything is in the greatest confusion-not from
defeat or despair-but altogether arising from VIC
tory, hope, JOY, and general EMULATION. Captain
Tyler hasi' headed the headers and there is the
greatest difficulty to tell exactly what course to
adopt-what men to trust-what road to take. The
same confusion, arising from different cause, co.
vers the friends of Mr.. Clay They don't know
what to do or 10 say, so overwhelming has been
their defeat. Some say that Mr.. Clay has no
chance-that the Abolitionists, organized in
all the Free States, can always defeat him at any
moment-and that the only hope of the wings is in
General Scott Genera Cass. Mr. Van Buren's
friends equally confused in another way. They
are beginning to get alarmed at the progress OF John
c. Calhoun. The high tariff and protective ''home
egues" equally in the dumps. The election in
this State has developed their utter want of infiu-
ence with the farmers-and people talk with
confidence of the repeal of the present tariff, and
the enactment of more moderate one. The Abo-
litoniss are also in state of ecstatic confusion at
the prospect of being able to control the Presiden-
tal election of 1914.
Such Is the fermentng state of mems minds in
New York. Washington, and elsewhere. The
clearest point IN the whole map is the position of
Captain Tyler and his administration. They have
got the whlp-hand of all parties-all factons-and
all ciigues. If they make good start, from pro-
per POSITION no one can tell what wonders may take
place in two years. Every thing depends the
start and the opening of the budget at the approach
ing session of Congress. The exchequer scheme
will, we suppose be presented agaln-and other
measures calmly considered. Some general and
comprehensive rule may also be laid down for re-
movas and appontments-but all is yet in state of
consideratlon-and so 1t will be for few weeks, or
rather days, to come.
Ponder well, Captain TYLER You are on the
food tide and If you take it IN right direction, it
may lead 10 fortune-if not, not
THE OLD MAN OF CONGRESS" The old man
sometimes the s. old man eloquent, us the appella-
ton given TO Ex-President Adams. He is eloquent,
learned but he is also eccentric in the highest de-
gree.
During recent movements, he has made himself
conspicuous as bitter ultra-very severe Cap
tain Tyer-and throwing out all sorts of imputa-
tons on General Jackson and the South generally
We do not believe that any harm will arise from
these things Mr.. Adams is a remarkable man
but he is in his 'sear and yellow leaf"-he
is in rhls second childhood''-he is in his
green old age" and his occasional exuberances
of temper should be INDUCED and passed over, as we
would the frettings of our great grand father Mr.
Adams has been an eminent statesman in his day
he has done his country some service-he never
interfere with any ones objects of ambiton-or
tread any ones toes, and his occasional flights of
bitter slrcasm answer the purpose OF shock from
an electric engine, to make cry" all alive, no !"
In Congress, at the approaching session, Mr. Ad-
ans will place himself at the head of the Abolition
lists, who are organised in several of the north
ern States This new party will probably number
about 10000 votes-but we don't think they will
ever set the world on fire.
