HEADS Up-SPINDLEs Down. There will be
meeti Of the present and past members OF the WEB
Ster Cub" in State street, this day, at IL O'Clock APP
plirans for offices under Gen. Taylor may then aud
there present their claims and they shall be heard!
By order. Il. PEEP, Secy.
The above is one of the Boston Posts dry rubs. it
is probably generally understood that the wings of Bos-
ton and its vicinity are divided into factions, one
consisting o. the original Taylor and their adher'
ents led on by Abbott Lawrence; the other, OF the
eleventh hour men, such Daniel Webster and his per-
sonal friends who went for denomination not fit to be
made" in order to defeat another equally unfit If Dame
Rumor speaks true-and this time there appears to be
good ground for the aSserion,-when Gen. Taylor ar
rived at Washington the friends on whose counsel he
relied considered it very important to the nflu-
ence Of Daniel Webster, in support of the adminsira
ton. He was Therefore consulted in reference TO the
arrangements and appointments, and so far as relates TO
matters in New England, his influence is supposed 10
be paramount in the administration Hence we may
understand why Abbott Lawrence, between whom and
Webster the oectonate relations do not Subsst
was excluded from the cabinet after the repeated annun-
Citations that he might have any station he chose. Hence,
we may understand why Fletcher Webs,eris appointed
District Attorney Of Massachusetts, and w. H. Leroy,
brother in law to Daniel Webster, Navy Agent oil the
port of New York, both of them appointments, which,
had not been thought of by those who consider hem>
the leaders of the Taylor party in these parts.
The appointment OF Judge Collamer also said TO have
been brought about by the Influence. The feel>
ing of chagrn in certain quarters, at the appointments
and non appointments, but poorly disguised and may
break out more audiby Than it has vet done.
