Of all parties. The present coalition Of political
parties in the nation, the critical state Of the cou-
try in respect to several important questions, the
movements pertaining to the close of the admins
traton of Franklin Pierce, and preliminary to the
commencement of the administration of James Bu-
chanan, will render the news from Washington, the

sons we shall spare pains encc in furnish
