Old Zack, all along, has kept his mouth shut on
the slavery question, until within week or two.
Nov he lalhs veiy heeiy. Non-acion is his po-
licy. lie can't imagine how the combined scheme
of Mt Clay is TO pass the House; he believes it
must fail, and The whole movement Of Clay, ass
and Webster, he characieri2es as a schnie for the
Presidency and fom the tenor of the old man
again in 1852, himself. Whether he will veto or
veto the bill OF Mr.. Clay, of course, he keeps
secret; but suggest to him the propety OF the veto
and the old gentleman will lock wise and call your
attention TO the weather and the backwardness OF
"garden sass"
Old Zack used 10 keep with Ewi ng a good deal
but last night Preston was his man, and if Ewing
and Craw ford ", re there, we did moi see them l.
YOU want TO re Old Zack, suggest TO him the me-
cessity of new cabinet. "Oh! yes, sir All very
well. Perhaps you want an office. A new cabinet
a..
one. Tie cabinet / have suits me, and that
enough, should think. When | want new ca
biner, there must be some cause for it. Any news
from Europe!'
''Nes, sir; they say that Bodisco has died in ST.

OH ZAcK-Cab't be pos ible. What a Mexican
climste that must be That Rio Grsnde is grave

Texas about the compromise !

TeI-by the way, what handsome young lady is
that ?
cd Zack has an eye for the fair sex, and pretty
face Is, with him, something worth looking at. Ills

But this is nonsense. Ask the President quietly
what he thinks of the Galphin claim, and ne will
tth Nth 'nai Ant huoiu's u u lawyer, ana
undoTgtayds his business; that Mr.. Crawford is too
much Ct gentleman 10 be a rogue, aud that he
knows the locofocos Che calls them locofocos) OF
the House can't make anything out of il, and that
he would be very sorry if Mr.. Crawford should
resign from any feelings Of dclcacy h the matter.
Ard there is some reason Ia believe that if the
cabinet were 10 explode, Old Zack would not for
get Col. Benton, Of whom lac has a very exalted
opinion since the debate the committee of thir.
