All the tat is in the fire again. The Calhoun
men felt quite pleased with the nominations for
Baltimore agreed upon few days ago, and
thought Mr. Polk was coming round again, and be-
ginning to the evil OF his ways in appointing SO
many old hunkers. as to make the so much dreaded
restoration appear inevitable. The nominations
for Baltimore ,hev liked well enough, and drew
therefrom very pleasing augurles. But, 10 and be-
hold, it was stated last night that Virgil X Paris
VIII had been nominated by Mr.. Tyler and con
for Maine, had been removed by Mr. Polk to make
way tor another rare old huDker," named RUFUS
Mcintyre. Mr. Paris was formerly a member of
Congress, has always been good sound democrat,
and is a friend of Mr.. Calhoun, ergo he must be
removed to make way for an old bunker. The
wrath o. the Calhounltes which was cooling down
somewhat, has been raised to a white heat bv this
act OF President Pok's, and they threaten ali sorts
lary, If Mr.. Rufus Mcintyre happens TO be one
of that Anti Texas Benton-Van Buren-Wright
clique breed, of which General Gould, the recently
appointed Marshal for the Northern District of
New York, is conspicuous member And if he,
like the latter, was also appointed vice president
OF anAnti-Texas meeting, as General Gould was at
the famous Rochester meeting, consequent unon
the celebrated secret Anti.Texas circular, signed
by Bryant, Butler 81 CO.? This new assault upon
friend Of Mr.. Calhouns, merely because he is such,
and to make way for an old bunker. has revived
all the bitterness OF feeling which had been in
measure lulled, and 1t will not be at all surprising,
if, when this and some other nominations oil the
Presidents come before the Senate, they should
be summarlly rejected, or 1t confirmed, confirmed
only by the support of the wings, with the hope of
causing and widening an incurable breach in the
democratic party, by operating upon the various
cllEYqbss: Ebs,:: i oos l;vh, bov.vsr il which ;. -,
these old hunkerish and Benton-Van Buren,
Wright clique appointments, have not been con-
sidered. The Richmond Enquirer and the NashvMe
at deny the truth probability of the
reasoning OF Your correspondent as to the possbi-
lity or probability Of Mr.. Polk being candidate
for second term. They declare that it is out of
1t, and wont have it-and that it is all nonsense to
suppose that he does. Well, to be sure it may be
so. Bur does 1t not seem singular that he should
make ss many appointments from this Benton
Van Buren, Wright clique, while at the same time
ne has utterly demolished the influence welded by
that clique through the Globe, aud transferred 1t to
Donelson, Hess, and Thomas Richie? Is it not a
fact that these old sagers at the public crib and
these old hunkers who have been restored, are of
that breed who will stick to their Offices TO the last
gasp, and who, sooner than lose them, will turn
round upon their old clique leaders. kick them in
to the middle Of next week, and then turn to and
fight through thick and thin for him who has put
them into, and keeps them in their lucrative berhs?
Are not these the men who understand wire pul-
l,pv ha.v Sk
favor of James K Polk? Why, too. has
the control Of the Globe been taken from
that clique, who could, by means Of Blair, have
IN favor OF Wright, and the Benton Van Buren,
Wright clique, and been put into the hands of gen.
tlemen who may be said to be devoted TO Mr.. Pok's
Heiss are both from Tennessee both Mr. Pok's
intimate and confidential friends-and are both to
be In the new concern No one can doubt where
their predictions will point. Mr.. Richie, to be
sure, disclaims any intention of forwarding Mr..
Polks claims tor second term, or of trying ad-
vance any persons claims for the Presidency. That
may be all true enough. But it matters not whether
he attempts to forward the claims of Mr.. Polk or
not, he wiH not oppose them. And, let him BE- as
ardent as he may be In favor OF any other man. (If
that should happen to be the case, when the wires
have been Jndlclousy worked, and it has been
made to appear that there IS pretty general feel
ing in favor of Mr. Polk for a second term, then
Thomas Richie will be found in favor of Mr.. Polk
also Who does not remember the ardor of Thos
klchie IN favor OF Mr Van Buren, up to the period
the Baltimore convention? And who does not re.
member his dropping Mr.. Van Buren like a hot po-
tatoe, when ne discovered that a large portion of
the party were determined not to have him at nv
price? Is it not then, viewing the state OF things
N this new phase, at least rendered very probable
That affairs are tending in the direction, the best

therefor by obtaining the New York Collectorsilip
