The successful candidates, and the offices 10
which they were seYerally elected.
This morning the apporlionment bill passed
the Senate, by vote Of 10 10 IL. There have
been very few amendments made in the Senate,
to the bill, as reported by the joint select com
miltee and presume there will be but few
alterations made in the House. The locofocos
fought il desperatey-Olds Reemelin and Arch
bold were furious in their denuncialions Of the
Wing party. The bill will pass the House in
a few days,--as soon as Smith Of Hamilton, Pot
ter, and other leading locofocos can read their
speeches in opposition to it, The Wings will
say but liule on the subject. When this bill is
passed. the Legislature will adjourn in a short
Iime,--l suppose about the 18th Of February
will be The lime.
Respectfully Yours,

Those which not controlled by some religious

defend no cause, however good, il II be nnlavor-

this subject Major Bliss might perhaps enlighIer
the public.
That the project Of treaty does not stop the
fighting in Mexico, is sevidenI from the last ad
vices, and that tho project ilself does not con
tain any tangible guarantee Of the future, seems
TO be highly probable. Meanwhile, has Mr.
Trst the power of disPOsing Of Ihe lhree mil

Another question is, can Mr.. Trist act as a
plenipotentiary after he is recalled, and what
relation does he hold 10 the Distinguished Secre'
tary Of .Statei And again If General Scott has
authorized Mr.. Fdst to act, does not that author
iry cease with the suspension and positive recall
Of Gen. Scout
Gen. Scout, as you will have learned from

week, arrive at Washington. be will, believe,
be one Of the most prominent candidates Tor the
Presidency. On the democratic side, the case
seems TO be narrowed down TO Cass, Dalass or
Walker, with more clemens Of harmony and
successful combination than there are this Time
between Clay, Scott and Taylor.
In further explanation of this sire in the
rear" upon Gen. Scott, we copy from the Wash
ngton letter of the Norh American, the fol-
lowing;
Gen. Scott, presuming the operations OF the
campaign 10 be closed, applied in November,
for leave to return 10 the United States. The
result of the Court of Enquiry will no. affect
this application, and he may be expected home
as soon as its proceedings have closed, if he de-
lermines 10 attend il, which is questioned, OF
sooner, unless the President considers II PoLlTIc
10 change his views.
Il can be no harm 10 repeat that Cen. Scot
arrested Gen. Worth, because he refused lC

the Commanding General, according TO the re
cognized usuage of the service. The arres
grew out Of correspondence between III
Two officers, in reference TO an order OF Gen
Scout concerning leuer-wriling from the camp
which the Secretary of War caused 10 be reVi
we'd with immediate application to Gen. Taylo
for his letter to Gen. Gaines.
Gen. Worth has won no enviabe distinctlo
throughout these difficulties, however voluabl
may hGvt been his services rs an officer. Their
are FACTS of grave character, which iibrougl
to light may give different shape to public {
pinion in regard to Genernl Worth and oil
ers, who have not been DEPRECATED in the pull
lie correspondence from the seat of war, in I'll
contrast with other, whose gallantry & achieve
ments might have claimed some respect wit
these very IMPARTIAL historians, as they proe'
to be. | honor General Worth for all that i
has done; but cannot honor him at the e.
pense of brave soldiers, who deserve as niue
of public gratitude and consideration. Poit
c,I aspirations, encouraged and originated b
selfish parlisans, at home have greatly aIlere
the relations of many distinguished officer
whom the country delighted to admire and az
preciate for their conduct in the field.

OutglvlngS Of the ADMINISTRATION.

The Baltimore "Sun," which. has long been
used by the Administration as the means by
which lis policy can be forshadowed, semi.offi.
CHILLY, has the following letter from Washing.
ton, which throws more light upon Gen. SCOTS
recall, and other matters equally important.
have not time to write you long letter, but
will endeavor to make few points. FIRST, as
10 Mr.. Trst. You may take it for granted, be-
yond cavi or dispute, that Mr.. Trist has sent
to Washington project Of a treaty, (not ,rea.
ty) and that the same has been submitted 10 the
President, and discussed in Cabinet council.
Cd. You may take it for granted that Mr..
Trist had no direct and positive authority to
make treaty, and that, consequently, 1.-The whole
thus lar, is amere &c parte arrangement between
Mr.. Trlst on one part, and Mexican Commits
s'oners, acting without direct authority of Con
gress on the olher.
3d.. That Mr.. Trist and General Scott coop
erate with each other in these preliminary ar
rangements; and that both are sanguine that
treaty ON the basis contained in the project, ma,
be ratified by the Mexican Congress.
4Ih. That the administration will seriousl,
consider the proposition and that, in all proba
bility, the President will communicate il 10 boil
Houses of Congress; and thereby hangs a tale
The question is, what will Congress dol NJ,
opinion is, that they vii! advise treaty, Of
that basis, to be made, and that the treaty itsel
will eventually be ratified do not say that al
this will be done toward the close Of next week
but perhaps between this and The 9TH Monday 3
May next and that is all that | can tell you o
present. This treaty is notqule as good as III
General Tay'or's Sierra Madre line; but the
the question is, did tho old General mean thi
line as aPermanent frontier ofthe United States
or merely as line Of military defence, to b
surrendered after the conclusion of peace. o.
