THE NEW DOCTRINE.

Concurring circumstances show that the doctrine
of the manifest destiny oil the United States to
become the great robber of lands and destroyer of
nations, and Of the right of powerful nation to
appropriate TO its USE by conquest, the territory OF
adjoining powers, is now the cardinal and cohesive
principle of the Administration portion Of the Demo-
cratic party in this country. What has transpred
on this subject in casual inerocutions as well as
regular debates in the Senate of the United States
is already known 10 the public in general. What
doctrines are avowed at the headquarters Of De-
mocracy at Albany our readers will have learned
from the preceding article. Since that article was
penned, there has been published, in the govern
ment paper in this city, Speech delivered by Gen.
SAM HousroS at great !" War Meeting held at
Tammahy Hall, in the city of New York, few
days ago. A speech from that quarter, considering
the position which the General at this moment oc-
cupics in his own party, would Of itself attract no
little attention But when, in addition, we find the
entire report of the speech transferred 70 the col
umns of the Union," with lavish encomiums on
the whole proceeding of which it forms so con-
spicuous part--a proceeding Of which the editor of
the New York Globe says that il will dffuse joy
and gladness throughout the Union" and which the
q Union " endorses as "an almost unprecedented
demonstration Of the enthusiasm and unanimity of

RECOMMENDED ny THE ADMINISTRATION IN relation

THE RHODE ISLAND CASE.

We find in the New York Courier report of
Mr.. WEBsTER's recent argument before the Supreme
Court in the Rhode Island case. Having had the
pleasure of hearing this great argument, we are
able to affirm the fidelity of the report; and as in
our Judgment it establishes, by train of reason
ing as ncontestable as it is profound, the awIess
and untenable nature of the Dorr Government and
proceedings, and by consequence, the constitutional
right and authority of the Charter Government we
shall endeavor, crowded as our columns are to find
room for an argument which vindicates so conclu-
sively the acts Of the Law and Order party.
Weekly national intelligencer., 1848-02-05

In confirmation of our impression that the speech
of Gen. HousToN may be considered as represent
ing the sentiment of his party in regard to the policy
Of the War, and the objects for which has been
waged and is TO be further waged, we observe that
is transferred to the columns Of the .Aibany .7r-
gus the old file-leader of the party, accompanied
with the following unmistakeable evidence Of entire
concurrence in its doctrines:
! "We find in the New York Herald full report
of the speech of the Hon. SAM HousToN, of Texas
at the great ,car meeting at Tammany Hall, on
Saturday night. We have traRqerred it to our
columns as fitting matter not only for such an oc-
cason, but for all occasions in which the rights,
the interests, and The true position Of The country
are topics of discussion and action.
.sThe vindication Of the origin and The great OBJ
jccts of the ,Ddr, and review Of its brilliant re-
suits, for the past and The future come with equal
grace and pertinency from the FIRST Senator from

Virginia and Ohio Commissioners have adjourned,
without being able to settle the boundary question
Ohio claimed the low-water mark; Virginia claim
ed the high-water mark, but was willing to make
the water in the channel, whether high or low, the
boundary. This would make variable, but at the
same time distinct and palpable, boundary. This
proposition. however, was not acceded to by the
