Probabilities Free Soil. Last Year
Wig. Loco. Wing. Loco. Wing. Loco Ind.

In this computation we have clussed Messrs viii
son and Tuck, Of N. H., Allen and Pafrey, of Mass,
Giddings and Root OF Ohio Howe OF Pa. and
Sprague, of Mich, as Free Soil Wings because
they either voted for Van Buren, or declined to vote
for Gen. Taylor last year. Messrs. Campbell and
Hunter, Of Ohio, also demurred, we believe, TO The
support Of Gen. Taylor, but we understand they no
longer stand noof from the great body of their sup
poriers. In any contest which may ariae between
Wing and Locofoco principles, nearly or quite ali
these may be confidently counted on to vote Wing,
Connecticut, Wimot, OF Pennsylvania and Durkee,
of Wisconsin may be expected to vote Locofoco--
the latter in accordance with the terms of the Wis
consln coalition, On almost any question Of VIII q
Locofoco policy, there will be Wing majority Of
AZ ast ten in the next House-nnd yet there may be
difficulty owing 10 the sectional cross-re In elect
Ing Speaker and other officers. We truat however,
they win all be Wing.
Allunderaand of corrae that ilie Scent ID strong
ly l4ocofoco, and that no party measures, az such
can be passed through both Houses and become law
The l.ocofoco proponderance in the Senate will be
about as strong numerically as, and of course much
stronger proporlionally than, the Wing asccndancy
in The House. We trust some rational modification
OF our present Tariff and Sub Treasury acts may be
so commended 10 the good sense of the moderate and
through the Senate. Thai expectation may be dis
appointed, and even then we shall rejoice that fair
share Of the responsibility Of governing devolves up
on each party, so that there may be indscrinii-
nate applause nor fault -fndng-no Judging in the
lump and by the l1bel-bnt snch candid discussion
and scrutiny of public measures as become N lion

Than We could wish, but whatever shall be effected

GEN. TAYLoR AND PENNsYLvANIA.

The unprecedented Wing majority which
Gen. Taylor received in this State--a ma
jority outnumbering that Of Gen. Harrison
by tens Of ,housands-made his great popu-
larity among our people, an evident and
established fact. Ii showed that his char
acter had gained The confidence Of the hon.
est yeomanry, who make up the great mass
Of voters, and the course Of Gen. Taylor,
since his elevation to the first place in the
Government, has proved that their conf
dence was not misplaced
The selection OF the Cabinet was matter
entirely within the discretion Of the Presi-
dent. He had, at that time, no official adj
visers, and, we doubt not, the advice he
received was calculated rather to embarrass
than to aid. This important matter was
settled with eminent Judgment. Every great
local interest was consulted, and the indi-
viduals chosen were men long distinguished
for character and ability. with such a
Cabinet an administration could not tail to
be popular aud successful
With the regular business OF the Depart
mcnts, the great massoi the people have
but little connection, and consequently are
less likely TO recognize the ability and labor
expended where such ability and labor are
most important. But no one who has visit
ed Washington, can have failed TO learn that
the time Of the Secretaries is fully occu-
picd-that, in word, their labors are inces-
ssnt. To gain an interview Of a few min
utes, days Of attendance are sometimes
necessary--and yet no one complains oil
any want Of disposition to oblige. Directed
by Gen. Taylor, the Government is all that
the people who placed him in power had a
right to expect, and has particularly met the
appreciation Of Pennsylvania.
In the management Of the State Depart
ment, Mr.. Clayton has won the spproba-
ton Of those best acquainted with the deli
cate and important character Of the duties
entrusted 10 him.

The Admini.tration- The Opposition.

President Taylor and his Cabinet are pursuing the
even tenor or their official duties, making the Ma,
tional veal Inc paramount object Of their caro- and
labor, while in obedience 10 the popular WILL The
governmental affairs are being discreetly and Judi
cousy rescued from the hands Of the spoilers.
which The people, In The aie presidential election de,
termined should supphnt the corrupting and DESC
latns doctrincs aud practices OF Locotocosm, are
being practically introduced and applied, and al
ready are the healthinl influences and felt upon
tile public mind and In every department OF industry.
With President who asks no iayors from his Ie-
vilers, and shrinks from no responsibility which his
political and official position imposes the public wei
! ings or the wailngs Of Locoiocolsm-the work Of
publication will 60 on, and honest, capable and
faithful agents Of the people viii be substituted for
those, Who for twenty years, have regarded offices
of high trust as public plumber"
! For nearly quarter OF century, the Wings have
| been prescribed, and tho money in the National
| treasury has been distributed to secure Locoioco
cohesyeness, and to recompcnse political severity.
| Against this governmental tyranny and corruption,
the people protested and against this gigantic power
Of money and office they arrayed themseyes--the
battle was fought and the glorious victory won, and
! now there goes up from an hundred thousand Loco
foco office holders protractcd and discordan wall
lngs, ratings, cowardy beggings and hypocriticnl
lamentations. But the public judgment has been
pronounced, the 'hand writing Is seen upon the
wai,' and a change Of men as well as measures is
demanded by an expression Of tho popular sover-
eighty, which we all acknowledge as omnipotent..
Asyet, the entire opposition to the present admin
Iteration, is confined 10 those who have for years
been feeding ut the "pubic crib" II Is the loss Of
governmental patronage and the "spois OF office,
and the fear Of losing then which occasions the oui
lcry The people are satisfied and only ask that the
work Of publication shall be prompt and thorough,
while the only complaint proceeds from those who
regarded themselves fastened for life upon the pub
lie Treasury. The hundred thousand Office holders
cry out prescription because few Of their num-
Der have given place TO better men, but this official
bowling finds no favor or sympathy, from the great
and its agents. and demand their expulsion from the
official stations they have abnred and degrnded.-

II IS well known that Mr.. Meredith came

to the Treasury Department under clrcuul-
stances to some extent unlavorabesto a Just
appreciation OF his acts, and yet the very
brief period which has elapsed, has been
sufficient to convince every one Of the pro-
priety Of the choice.
We need not say that the Post Master
General has, to an unusual extent, met the
wishes and merited the regard Of the peo-
Pile. The selection Of his Assistant, Mr..
Warren, was an act Indicating great saga
city and appreciation Of character; and the
appointments made by the Department, in
every part Of the country, have been wise
and judicious. 1t is true, there must neces-
sarly be some disappointment where there
are numerous applicants with reasona-
Bile men this must soon disappear, and the
community, confident in the intentions which
direct the administration Of the Department,
will and do give il their entire confidence.
The selection OF Mr.. Collamer was, as ex-
perience shows, but another evidence Of the
sagacity Of General Taylor in choosing his
official advisers.
We might go on to speak Of the other
members of the Cabinet distinguished
Secretary of the lnterior-the Secretaries
of War and Of the Navy--the Attorney
General-but we need go no further. It is
gratifying to every friend Of the country TO
know that General Taylor has met every
hope fulfilled every expectation -gratihed
every reasonable wish.
All this has had the effect Of confirming
the popularity Of Gen. Taylor in Pennsyl-
vana. He is emphatically her iavorite, and
on all occasions may rely upon her generous
appreciation Of his acts, as well as warm
support Of himself and his policy - Read

The Next Congess.

Inspired by the Wing disasters in Virginia, tho
journal Of Commerce. that bird Of evil omen, begins
already TO cypher on, a I.ocofoco majority In the
next House Of Representatives. Taking fourteen I.o-
cofocos from Virginia (Beale from the lath District

Gratis the House as well as the Senate We demur
In the first place to the correctness of this statement
although we admit the probability that II we count
all the ultra Slavery men and oil the Anti Savery
men against the Wings, we may make out an Anti
Wing majority in the House. But the Journal has
no right to put such men as Preston King, Van
Buren, Free-soier, and Isaac f. Holmes, Southern
fanatic, but Taylor man, both In Its Democratic
column, as it does. Iou cannot so mix and mark
them with fairness. Tho members Of the House al

The AdministratIo,,.

The present Administration more nearly resembles
the calm and patriotic rule Of Washington, than any
other since his day Cool, just and patriotic-tem-
pered with mildness and equanimity, It will be a
pattern for succeeding Administrations; and the page
OF History which records the actions Of the present
Executive, will boone Of the brightest in our Nations
civil glory.
No officers have been removed without sufficient
cause, and none appointed, without possessing the
proper qualifications course the Locos raise a
great "hie and cry' about prescription" the "pnrty
axe" the guillotin" &C., but nothing less could be
expected from party who was 80 sgnally defeated,
and 20 sudly disappointed in all their glorious
schemes-We could expect nothing else from the
hot-hended dcmagogues among them; but the fair
and honest of them can sec nothing to which TO OBJ
ject. Some Of the fiery and over-zeulous Wings OBJ
ject to Glen. Taylofs mildness, but neither COM
mendation or censure can cause him to swerve from
the rectiinea path Of duty. His country's welfare
is superior TO him than the bolstering up Of party;
and party intrigues will find favor In his sight.
Tho old man.is rohgh specimen of war discipline
but noble specimen of an honest man. and If he
