Correspondence Of The Baltimore Sun

WAsHINeToN, December /, 1851
The Organi safion-Ar. Boyd and the Co,npro,nise-
The Whig Caucus Revolutions Thorough Adhe-
renee TO the adjustment Measure.
The House is organized, and Linn Boyd
Speaker. Previous to his election, George w.
Jones, of Tennessee, declared he should vote
for him, not because the caucus had voted for
him, but because he was good Compromise
man. There is truly no better Compromise
man in the House than Mr.. Boyd, and certain
ly more honest and straightforward man on
the whole continent. OF course, all the other eau
Gus nominees elected on the same principle
Forney by fifty majority.
The Wings held caucus this morning in which
they passed the following highly satisfactory reso-
luton:
"Resolved, That we regard the series of acts
known the Adjustment measures as forming in
their mutual dependence and connexion a system
of compromise the most conciatory and the beat
for the entire country that could be obtained from
conflicting sectional interests and opinions and
that, therefore, they ought 10 be adhered TO and
carried into faithful execution as final settlement
in principle and substance of the dangerous and
exciting subjects which they embrace.
There were between fifty and sixty Wings in
caucus, majority northern men, and there were
not more than five or eight who voted against the
resolution or left the room. The Democrats pro-
pose to beat that all hollow. They want to mus
ter their whole strength in Congress and pass the
Compromise resolutions, with the whole strength
Of the party under drill. The fact is, the Wings
went at the resolutions without looking to office,
which was beyond their reach; while the Demo
Gratis exhibited the phenomena, called by astrono-
mers the paraiiaI; that ia they suffered Memsclves
10 be detected from straight line by the MEDIUM
through tohich they passed; but all will be made
right in few days.
This ia rPfrcahinot war tho
and froesolers denounced the Union as "a CURSE, /"
mere wanton. Now the fashion ia to worship at
her shrine. The Union ia not only the avowed
bride Of every true American heart, but also the
fashion of the day; disunion will soon be an obso-
lete idea.

BRicK-MAKING MAcHINE.--A new machine for
brick making, wonderfully simplifying the process
has been invented in New England Ii is described
as made ofiron, simple, compact, aud massive and
Weighing seventeen toni 1t turns out three thou
eand brick hour. iii worked by steam en-
CINE OF twenty horse power Attached to the ma
chine is pulverizer, which works with wonderful
beauty and precision. The clay lie first dried, then
ground by passing between heavy rollers, then
screened or sifted, and passed into the machine in
a uniform state, whereit is subjected to the i'm
menso power Of the mar hine, and q beautiful pcr
feet face brick is produced, almost as smooth and
dcnec as a polished marblc. The bricks are taken
from the machine and Immediately set in the kins
ready for burning, theteby obyiating the necessity
Of spreadng on the yard to dry before burning, as
we'll as injury or loss from wet weather. BY this
process a superior face brick can be produced, at
las trpenss than the cOarsest common brick by the
old method.

We perceive that the New York EUening
Post, the leading DEMOCRATIC journal in the
State Of New York, and the organ of the Barn
burners and Freesoilers, presents the following
oJrrect view of the results of the recent Con-
gressional caucuses:
The Two CAUcUsEs AT WAsHINGroY.
The different results of the two caucuses held
at Washington by the Wing and Democratic
members OF the House of Representatives. pre-
liminary to the nomination of Speaker and
Clerk, are worthy Of note. Attempts Were
made to place the two parties on the same plat
form of political doctrine-that of adherence to
the Compromise, which means the Fugitive
Slave law.
In the Democratic caucus the resolutions offered
by Colonel Polk brother Of the late President sus-
tanning the Compromise, were laid the table by
very decided majority-a vote Of nearly two to
one. The Democratic members, in other words
refused to make their nominations with any express
view to the support of the Fugitive Slave law The
mover, Colonel Polk, and dozen more Of the
Southern Union Democrats, it is said, Immediately
left the and refused their countenance to its
further proceedings.
In regard to the Compromise resolutions the
liberal Democrats in the caucus obtained the vic
tory; in regard to the nominations, the other wing
of the party carried the day. 1t ia said however
that Mr.. King Of this State, and Mr.. Rantoul oil
Massachusetts, supported and urged the nominal
ten of Boyd and Forney-a course which we
ought, in justice to these gentlemen, to suppose
they satisfactorily explain.
Some of the Wing prints of this morning. we
perceive, full of boasts of the advantage of the
Wing party in Congress over the Democratic in
point of harmony. While the Democrats were
quarreling and storming about the Compromise,
all was sunshine, according to their representa-.
tions, in the Wing camp, and every thing was to
go smoothly.
The telegraph disperses these pleasant anticipa-
tons. The Wing members of the House have met
in caucus, and the resolutions which the Demo-
cratic caucus rejected have been offered As the
Compromise the measures of the admin
isration and itsfriends, and form part of the i'd
ministration policy, they tcere IF course adopted.
But they were not adopted without contention
and dissent. Mr.. Stevens, of Pennsylvania and
several others who favor the Frecsol doctrine,
withdrew from the caucus, and, we presume will
not hold themselves bound by its proceedings.
In both the result is precisely ichai tre
couldhaue desired The responsibility of the Cum
promise as virtually disotcned by the Democrats and
distinctly GUo,ced by the Whigs, tOhose proper of.
