Mr.. BuchaDsn's NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. o.
Rebellion among the Office Beggarx.

While from the opposition journals in every
quarter Of the Union there arc abundant nantes
ations of fair and liberal spirit towards the in
coming administration, it is a remarkable, and
indeed, an ominous fact that the strongest symp-
toms of a venomous hostility to Mr.. Buchanan
come from the spoilsmen and Office bcggars of
the democratic camp.
We have two notable specimens before us Of
this threatened hostility, TO wit-the Cincinnati
Enquirer, rather prominent democratic journal
Of the West, and the Daily Ntirs, hungry and
rather obscure organ Of fussy little democratic
spoils clique Of this city. The object Of their
cutlery is the party organ at Washington, In con-
ncction with the government printing. IL Is
generally understood that, with the concurrence
Of Mr. Buchansa, the Washington Union news
paper has been ssld TO Mr.. John Appleton by it,
present editor anu publisher. Mr.. Nicholson 1.-THE
man TO whom Gen. Cas- wrote the Nicholson
letter.; that Mr, Appleton is TO assume the con-
troll OF the paper in behalf Of the new admins
tr..ton, on or shortly after the fourth Of March,
ard that the enormous and juicy plum Of the
printing Of one or both houses Of Congress and
the Executive departments is TO be bis rev s.. 4
IL be can get il. As The appointed head Of the
federalciiy organ par eJocEeao, MI. Appleton
likewise to he generally accepted by the demo
cracy, as the rightful heir at law TO these rich
spoils, with democratic majority in both houses
Of Congress. This il according TO the " usages
Of the party but in the meantime the prize has
become 50 amazingly tempting as TO aggravate
the jealousy and cupidity Of some of the breth-
rem itching for a share into threats Of rebellion
If they fail
