No man prett nds 10 decide what course will be III
timacly taken at Washington. The letters Of The
Whu Correspondents throw out different indications.
First, they say tina, nothing viii be done-hat the
Wing Caucus have determined on breaking up, with

will, be attempted, and that some bill may yet be adopt

propositions had BE- iniechanged the floor OF the
House, which seemed 10 point To some adjustment,
Caucus Of the Wings held, who determined to
pass no bill and TO adjourn on Wednesday, Ihe ultra

the Wings in Congress-.
Even the Wings themselves begin i6 clamor and re-

The Boston Adyertseri(W Wing too y suys; 1.-THE only

doomed TO suffer under the will of such President in

which will inevitably result from not acting al all In

present law, is Obvious, that great Inconvenirnces
