Gov. Marcy and the Free-soiIers.

The Albany Argus the leading organ Of the
Now York Hunkers charges the Washington
Union with having most distinctly taken sides
with the Free-so faction in that State against
the national and true Democracy" The
Argus ascrlbes the course ofthc Union TO the
fact, that wi hen the official organ casts a glance
at New York politics, it looks through Seore-
tary Marcy's spectacles. The Hunker jour
nal goes on 10 say
But ii would be strange if the functonary
alluded to did not symnathise with his friends
and sur rorters for the Presidency here, in '52,
and the supposed advocates now of his claims
for the succession, instead ofthose who dis
trustiul OF him under his new associations

thing save his implacable enmiiy towards all
who, standing on their ancient principles and
by old aud tried friends, stand also in the way
Of his amotion.

circumstances require it. 1t further learns that
some thirty or forty ofthese vessels will arrive

We publish the following Card from Col.
Wingfeld, correcting a slight inaccuracy of
ours in a Statement, upon his authority We
make the correction with pleasure. because it
IS entirely foreign to our purpose to do any

error into which we inadvertently fell, how.
ever, is an immateria one. affecting the

already made, and adds force to the conviction
that The Loco'oco leaders of this Circuit have

WILL THERE RE PEACE OR WAR IN Eu
RorE.-Thc New York press is specializing
gain as to the probabilities of peace or war in
Europe. The Tribune seems to think there
may be some delusion in the peace prospects
aud adds:
at is clear that the solution of the problem
depends mainly on France and England. If
they are willing to give the Gar what he
"ants;there will he no war; if thew refuse pos
lively, war will surely follow. for he " i'll new
er abandon his demands We incline strong
ly to the tellef that they will not. Hence the
uncertainty In which the question still remains
involved"
The Courier thus speculates on the pro-
gress Russia is making in the East:
"As we have before said. the present inter
ests OF France are not sufficiently concerned
to make her eager for war with Russia, and
the immediate interests of Austria, in respect
to the position of Turkey, are closely inden,
fed with those of Russia; for she may and
doubtless will secure n share of the prey. But
England is far differently circumstanced Her
! interests and honor. and more than all. the al
innate safety of her Empire, are involved in
the issues forced upon her in this Turkish quar-
rel. AS a century ago, the battle for doni
nation in America and Hipdostan was fought
between France and England on the plains OF
Germany and Holland, so now the Empire OF
India should be decided betw cen England and
Russia on the fields OF Bulgaria and the pas S.
