in secret conclave, setting the wishes Of the
masses at dcfa nee? That's the rub. The Stray.

Editor taking office. in some of the Depart.

prefer; my own impression is, he will go to the
"gold coast" The lntelligenccr will then have
but one competitor, US now; but more formid-
able one in the affection Of Gen. Taylor. How
things will be settled to please the parties, is
impossible to tell at present. The lntelligcn.
Ger will take ground for Mr.. Clayton for the
succession. at tho proper time; but should It be
determined to run Gen. Taylor again, as many
think, MIR. Clayton's prospect will be fore

White House indefinitely postponed. If the

all these appointments will be made, to take
