Gen. CAss has written Il letter to his friends al
Washington, declining to be candidate for
President in the present posture OF affairs. lie
thinks if he had been taken up six months ago,
the party's fortunes would have been less des.
perate but nov 1t would be useless, and he Is
"too old soldier to lead fororn hope He
says Van Buren, must stand.
Com STEWART has been making little

who could galvun,ze the corpse of LocD Foco

JOHN TYLER Is pushing anead last for III,
Loco nominations. He is not afraid TO stand, .lo
trusts to his luck 10 overhear every thing Hcl
to have nice little Convention of his own 10
nominate him on the 9th May, in case Nh Van
Buren's MT.
The Treaty of Annexation and accompany.
ing documents arc so bad as 10 excite the dlssat-
isfaction of even the Annexation party. The
terms proposed are such as will excite general
burst of indignation all over the Country, when
ever disclosed. Among the documents is for
NAL and solemn disclaimer by Great Britain Of
any desire or intention of acquiring Texas. We
hear that Mr.. Calhoun has seen fit to enter upon
a discussion of Slavery in the abstract in con-
ncxion with this business, and has acquitted
himself very badly. Allen and Tappan, the Ohio
Senators, say they can't go this Treaty. 1t Will
hardly get a dozen votes.
Capt. Robert Tyler is managing matters for

good fist of it. He undertook to turn out Mr..
Curtis the Collector here, and missed fire, owing
to his ignorance of law and Constitution, and has
concluded to let Mr. c. stay till the Senate is out
of the way. Ferris will pretty certainly be re-
iected, or left hanging between Heaven and
Earth.
Capt. Robert, we hear, undertook to persuade
the Marshal of this District, Silas NJ. Stwell, to
resign. blu, his eloquence was wasted. The stony
heart Of the Marshal resisted all importantly, so
Mr. not-Sheriff Atwood remains ofiicelcss.
Capt. Tyler has thought better of the project
OF turning Ogden Hoffman out of the District
Attorneys office, 10 make room for Hon. John
A. Morrill,, and concluded 10 let Mr. IL. remain.
This is the wiscst thought he has had yet.
Robert c. Wetmore, we gather, is removed
from the post Of Navy Agent, and Mr.. Hold
over Shaer appointed 10 his place. He will be
hard man 10 get out, if he once gets in. We be-
lieve the documents have not come on yet
@. We hear that Gen. VIM. S. Murphy OF
Ohio, our present de'ectable Charge d'Atfaircs to
Texas, will probably be rejected by the Senate
pretty unanimously. Perhaps we shall knew
why when the documents connected with the
Treaty of Annexation are made public.
