Correspondence of the whig
WASHINGTON. Sept. 90, 1912.
AGer northern ramble of some three weeks.
have once more the pleasure OF sitting down here, tc
hold an occasional colloquy with the Wing and tC
luxuriate in the absurdi,ies Of that mos. dver,ine
Of nonsense mongers. John Jones.
Glad am to assure yoI-as believe can-tha
the rumors lately Of on impending eclipse
that great political luminary, the aforesaid John
are, as ye, false. lie still dfuscs his customary
beams, to irradiate the nation with the pure ligh,
of Tyersm.
|. ia true, however, that John hath, of late made
certain political discoveries, Of a rather marvellous
nature, wel-nigh impossible without a political
perspcaei!y as exIraordnaryas his. He begins a,
last shrewdiy to suspect that President Tyler is
not-nay, never was, whig; and that the cniinen,
services, which he has so aLundanty conferred On
the country, have all enurod, and were intended to
enure, 10 the benefit of the Repubican-ihal is the
Loco Foco Party-acnc.
John andhis master, in short, are now rs camor
ously busy in attempting 10 prove that they never
were any thing but Loco FocoS, rs they were some
eight months since, to convince tic world tina, there
were and could be no truer Wings than they--the
Presiicat having las they constantly averred
differed fom his Wing friends any point but ono
that OF the particular modification OF National
b INK, which should make i, constitutional.
| further development, not lille characters site
OF man and master in its adroitness, is found in
late official appeal 10 the Democrats party, not 10
take 1t amiss il the President should still retain in
Office some who are not entirely genuine Republic
cans, but whose personal fidelity TO the President
aones for the absence of strict political orthodoxy.
The President they go on to urse) mus, surely be
permitted TO have some devoted friends about him:
this is On immunity due to his services to D.mocra.
ey against Whisism. Who (they 10 day insis,l has
ever done as much injury to the Wing cause as MIR
! iyleH Has he not (they askl been the means of
keeping in Office 10000 Democrats2 Sure'y, then.
few Offices for very few personal friends, no, vet
entirely Locofjcozsd. but still ain the gall Of bitter
ness" should be, in common charity, allowed the
President.
All this is certainly udcrous enough. If TINT
"cunsins little Isaae"--sU -i, he Of tho N.w
Hampshire Patriot, Isaac Hill-had WELDED TO lin.
temptations lately pres, upon him here, to enlist MS
the Editor of the MadisoniAn, you would Tot have
seen sIch wreiehed left-handedness rs this. re-
joce that Isaac is insensible to the autemen,r
Of all wickedness which does no, promise TO be
profitable. lie has no IDEA Of damnine his soul
for nothing, and OF doing the devils worst Jobs
Tor HIM, without getting any wages. He leaves
that 10 MIR Jones; who. otter all, seems TO be The
only person that they can hire 10 edit the Court
paper. Allen took the bounty, and then made haste
10 sell them the dead horse" Noah said, ali no
Dividgc got Communication Of sentence and went
INTO clerkship. Parmely preferred the service OF
tAe Herald, as the more respectable and intellectual
concern; and Isaac Hill thinks that in point of re
gard for his public morality, il behoyes him to
eschew so woful a connection.
Enough, however, OF all this; paulo ma fora cana
mHs-let us speak OF the Cabinet. The Glob,,s
intelligence of last night is believe, well founded,
though incomplete. There was Yesterday n sor, NJ
official arrival from tho Rip Raps, through which
rs, think, ascsrtained that MIR Louis McL,,re
takes the premiership and Mr. Cushing the Trsa.
sury. Mr. Tyler, it seems-probably through the
elective aiiinte' Of imbeciiity-would have prefer-
red Tor the State DEPARTMENT that thing OF g.,r-
saws' that political popinjiy, Mr. Stevenson. MIR
webster, II is understood, would now willingly "a.
call the written ntmation given Just before he set
oil Tor Marshheld, that he desired to quit the Ca
0inei' What pl4esJo he will get is uncertain
problbly some foreign mission.
Two other remarkable removals have inst oe.u,-
red-that Of MIR Fuller, second Assistnn, Pos, M,s.
ter General, and OF Mr. Calhoun, consul n, uov,n
ma The iofmeris to make way according to what
was lore shadowed in certain congressional demon.

Two Other important removals here are probably
