which, as literary work, stands unequall-
ed in America"
Very much like a literary notice which a
whig editor gave of Greeley's Pictorial life
of Scott. He condemned it forincompeletc-
ness, and throughout the biographer had
not done the General justice in failing to
mention his authorship of the Waverly Nov
els. The critic complains that literary
circles would be lost to the whig strength,
by being left in ignorance of this fact, and
thought the Pictorial Life ought to have an
appendiX, containing full yindication Of the
Generals literary claims, with catalouge
of the Wayerly series.

here, without allowing their fathers to come

any right to think on the subject, claim that
we can best govern ourselves, and the better

the better for the foreigners who may here

Of the 10Th instant One Of the most common
remarks made By every one upon The STATE o.
feeling IN the Democratic ranks in Congress Is
that in their transition flom an opposition to al
administration party, they have suddenly be-
come aon-commataL They hesitate about
men and measures, and are extremely cautious
in their opinions on subjects as 10 which ihey
have heretofore had Little reserve. There Is
not much more to be heard Of fIlhusterlng
and Of Intervention projects, from inside Demo
Gratis. They have to 60 out Of the party 10
raise new cry. Some Of them have hereto
fore said so much about inevitable war and
50 much about intervention against inter
yenllon, that they now find their speeches a
barrier between them and the high places IN
der the new administration. Tie difficulties
as 10 forming a Cabinet are increasing If we
may Judge from a comparison Of opinions
which we hear from democrats Of different sec
tons and different shades Of the party, 1t will
be almost impossible to reconcile conflicting
opinions, views and interests, on this subject
unless all known, distinguished, and experenc-
ed men IN the Democratic party be dropped
With one exception, that Of Caleb Gushing,
there appear to exist insuperable objections to
every competent man who has been named.
