Tsylors cabinet had the political fever and agus
from the start II was poor, ricketty, sckly, pale
faced swellsd belly concern Beer burnt brandy, nor
milk punch, did Lot help its ailings. We tried TO
doctor it, but Mr.. Clayton got into passion, and
refused to take physic. Some people think
that all their complaint was the "Galphin :"
itch but this 10 a sad mistake. All cabinets
or less afflicted by that disease. 1t is an
infectious disorder prevailing at Washington-a sort
of official endemic-but rarely proves mortal In
deed, some Of the afflicted grow fat on it. Tho
disease that was killing Tsylor's cabinet when the
good old patriot died, WAS one of very fatal cha.
racter-n fact, it may be classed among the incur
ables. II was decided case Of humbuggitat,s.
From the signs Of the times sdvertei to in the
| commencement Of these remarks, We foretell that
| Mr. Fillmore win have to call in the doctors ore
| long, to what is the matter with his cabinet
and his party, and try TO cure their disorders We
discover strong manifestations Of disease there and
whereabouts. 1t Is shrewdly opined by some that
the acting President owing, perhaps, to his sleep
| ing in the same chamber and bed in which Tyler
and Bolts once slept in the White House, has
caught the complaint which 50 violently affected
Mr.. Tyler the last NO years of his term, and which
is certain political death to any "actng" Pre- dent.
II is called the presidential fever" 1t is terri
bic complaint-worse than the hydrophobia, and
generally sticks to man through life. We have
known any entirely cured Of it, if the at
tack was at all violent. Aim ost every Of our
distinguished politicians has had a touch of it,
and some have been powerfully affected. Cas-, Blu
chanan, Houston, Woodbury., Scott, all have it,
Clay has had it. Webster has it. Van Buren,
will get rid of it. 1t sticks to him as the Old
Man Of the Sea stuck to the shoulders OF Sinbad
He will die Of it, The question may be well ask
cd, what one of the leading politicians Of the Uni
ted States is exempt from it! Not one. They all
have itlittle and big, wise and fools, honest
men and r, CUES. 1t is amusing to see how il af
fects them. Some eat public dinners yoraciousy
Some decline eating ut all. Some talkatiyc,
make speeches all the time, and all sorts OF
speeches. Some don't like .noise and confusion
and decline speaking. Most Of Thorn fond If
writing letters-some very foolish, some not SO de-
cidedly absurd steadfast church goers aud
ms-givers; but all those affected with this dis
ease to manifest it in some way or other.
Ono very singular mark of it is that the patient
always swears he has the disorder in the slight
est degree This affection makes its victim terri
bly, jealous-very credulous and suspicious, and
cessively vindcive against the objects Of his jea
ousy.
We have . sort of friendly regard for she acting
President He is from the I'm pire State, and was
elected with old Buena Vista. We say to him,
7rere- ga'de-you are in peril. Look out for
squalls
The public papers apprise that ex,~ecretary
Clayton is in Washington. He cannot abide Clay
or Webster since General Taylor's demise He
hated the Herald before that Fear and envy al
ways excite hate. lie thinks Scott aud himself are
the " propessst men, to be President and Vice I
President ia 1852 Oh, what glorious soup and
milk punch We should then have at the White
House Bs; this is a DEPRESSION.
We say again to acting President Fillmore,
mind your helm. Watch the wins-keep your ship
well trimmed
Certain organs of certain persons and elilgos in [
the whig party, are giving out ominous hints of
your being inimical in feeling To the godlike ex-

must not allow himself to become exctod personally
On the subject nor let the personal hosilities Of
others mislead him. From all We have learned, We
would frankly advise Mr.. Webster TO 60 back TO
Washington forthwith-instan,sr-only stopping
in this city one day to eat his public dinner, and
when he gets into the State Department. to Wind
