These are now The great questions Of the day
We have, perhaps, already sufficiently expressed
our views Of the policy Of Mr. Pok; policy
equally startling and magnificent; astonishing. az
vel his friends, as his opponents The question.
therefore, which now engages the whole popular
mind, y whether Congress will sustain him. in the
measures which he recommends in relation 10
botn foreign and domestic affairs, and whether II
viii lead to a war with England
We perceive the public journals of the opposition
party, already attacking Mr. Polk and very conf
DENLY predicting that Congress will not sustain his
admlnlstratlon-that his party will not pass favor
ably upon his measures-and that, even If the House
Of Representatives should sustain him, there Will
be opposition enough in the Senate 10 render i,s
support nugatory
There may be something plausible in such view
ct public affairs, and until the results are disclosed
by the action OF Congress itself, during the present
session, We can only make an approximation 10 this
result by calculation, and brooding over the
events and votes indicative OF the tendency Of
things. The first movements of Congress. there
fore, will be watched with intense interest and the
hrst votes affecting the various subjects In dispute.
Will be scrutnzed with equal care
We already find that thus far, Mr. Polk has been
completely triumphant in the House Of Represents.
tyes, both IN the election Of the Speaker and Of ,be
Printers We have already given the votes cas-, for
the Speaker, and we here give The details OF the vote
