WASHINGTON, Dec. %. 1853.

II has been discovered by the ever-watchfn
organs of the administration. that they were
slightly mistaken in their estimate of the vote
that elected the Sentinel Printer to the Senate
At first when the vote was analysed and duly
weighed, thoughauite heavy enough to eteef,it was
not considered sufficiently weighty to amount to
anything like censure on the President, his pol
icy, his advisers or his organs.
The tuna begins to change now. Like good
sailors these "organ" men only sail on one tack
as long as they have wind. Mr.. Hunter, who at
first voted for Tucker considerations entirely
personal to Tucker, is now very seriously sus-
pected of considerations personal TO Mr.. Hunter.
In other words il has been suddenly discovered
that Mr. Hunter is nearer kin to himseif than he
is to Mr.. Tucker, and that he may possibly have
an eye to 1856. Though as yet they touch him
rather lightly, there are some rather distinct allu-
sions TO his antecedents, as if by way of letting
him know what they could say if they would.
Their policy is indeed bold-no less than of car-
rying the ..war into Africa" II any member Is
suspected he Is to be assailed forthwith in order
TO diminish his power of doing harm Thus from
threatening the Senate as a body, they Will go
through individually, never doubling but that
the "spols" argument will be quite as potent as
of yore-frst to buy men body and soul and next
to keep them bound ever after.
Though the session has hardly begun and no
single item of administration policy legtimatey
presented-save the matter of organization-tn
which it is now admitted the administration had
some nterest)-there are abundant evidence Of a
strong feeling of opposition ahead Mr.. Mike
