Correspondence of the Herald
WASHINGTON, Oct. I'D, lsD.
inside Vietc Of the White House.
AS the readers Of the Herald always desire to-
know the true state of things at the capital OF the
nation, am induced to inform you that the general
unkind feelings heretofore possessed by the Presi-
dent and members Of the Cabinet towards the Vice
President, have greatly abated but it is OF no use
TO disguise the fact, the Secretary OF State hates
Mr. Dallas and has thrown himself in the way OF all
the Vice Presidents friends to Office and patronage
Mr. Secretary Walker joins in against his uncle, and
so does Marcy and Cave Johnson. The modest and
talented Bancroft is the friend Of Mr.. Dallas AZ
the time Mr. Bancroft was called to the cabinet the
President and Vice President were on the best
terms not now, however, entirely Although
they may correspond occasionalyupon national sub
jects, and dine together they lately did. you may
depend upon il, since the middle Of March, when the
vicePresident wasrefused all and every participation
IN thePennsylvania appointments. The President ana
Vice President strange as it may appear, are nearly
IT not quite two, Notwithstanding the nephew, by
marriage, of uncle being always at Court, and sup
posed to be placed in the Treasury Department to

tie, and give great Importance to the vote of the
President of the Senate, Mr. Dallas Col Benton
has been concIiaed, and now Mr.. Dallas is to be,
but his friends have lost all the offices and the boot
is on the other leg Mr. President Polk requires
favors from Mr. Vice President Dallas, and does not
care SO much about Mr. Buchanan now, who has
gorged all his friends with fat offices, and who 10 Sc
riousy asked to retire to the Supreme Court
Bench on account Of the tariff question
and Father Ritchie's printing, of the House
So, if Buchanan does not put on the robe and take
seat beside the erudite, talented and experienced
jurist, Woodbury,he may never have another chance
of doing -,
The vacancy caused by the death Of Judge Bald
win, must be filled at the meeting OF Con-
gress-the delay in making the appointment has al,

Others still live in hopes of the ermine falling upon
their shoulders-still live in hopes that Buchanan
will not adopt the wise course OF accepting IT,
say wise course because the Presto ency of the Uni
ted States will never be within his grasp within
his reach-within his sight The dolngs OF tho'Na-
tional Convention, last year, should be warning 10

columns for a station he can never occupy, by ana
