DISAPPOINTMENT. ETC.
SPECIAL CORRESPONDENCE oF TIL. NEW YORK HERALD.
WASHINGTON, Jan. % 1858.
You viii give me credit for a marked omission of any
gossip to the formation OF General Pierce
cabinet but matters have arrived at that condition
that it is necessary should advise you of them and do
so without expressing any opinion whatever and with
other desire than 10 record facts. The announcement
that General Pierce intends t. nlace NJ nis las cr5.
l..ssent.ng the free soil interests the one
hand and Jefferson Davis, representing the late sece
sor interest on the other has been received here by the
great body OF the democratic members representing what
is known the national democratic party with feelings
ofthe deepest pain and secret is made Of the disap
pointment which such cabinet would create This is
not caused by any personal desires for the gentlemen
most dissatisfied are those who want no Office and
upon whom the next administration will be more
dependent than they will be on the admin
istration They contend that the Presidential cam.
paign fought upon the platform of the compro
mise act, and that, although all the segments of the
party accepted the platform, it i'll becomes the who
stood aoof from the party and who caused its defeat
1873 to appropriate the conduct of the aomnistra
ton. Minor Offices they may have in abundance but the
heads OF dcpartments-the political appoment-sh
be given to that portion of the party which always ad
hered to and represents its nationality This is the
position of affairs and from its very aturc almost
impossible that General Pierce should be advised of it,
The democratic party in Congress to dictate
who shall form the cabinet would those whose
ions would be worth having intrude their advice upon
General Pierce unashcd This however does not render
them less sensitive to the injuries which intrgues may
entail If Gen. Pierce chose to ask the candid opinions
o the members OF the democratic party he would doubt
less receive such replies would show him the exact
position OF affairs and he could Judge how far such opin.
IONS are entitled to weight. And such would
have this advantage, that the letters would be pri-
vate undue publicity would not attend it, X. w.
