THE PRESSURE REACHES GOVERNMENT.
Especial Dispatch to the n. Y. Tribune.

Especial Dispatch to the n. Y. Tribune.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 20, 1857.
The President expresses q good deal Of
concern regarding the effect Of the pressure
upon the Government finances. Directions
have been given to revise and reduce oil es-
Inmates. The construction Of Custom Hous
es and many other public works will be sus-
pended. The policy OF the Administration
is to avert the necessity of loan by making
retrenchments The President will oppose
all money bills, except those for indispensa-
Bile appropriations. Col. Forsyth's plan for
purchasing foothold in Tehuantepec-a
forty million scheme lis consequently
wreck Innumerable plumber schemes in
Washington will share its fate.
The final decision is to keep Toucey in the
Cabinet.
1t is rumored, on apparently good author
ity, that directions have been given to Mar
shall Hoover to aid the city authorities in re-
pressing riot and violence, and that an ad-
ditional company Of troops has been ordered
to the Marine Barracks to assist him.
! II is also stated that Gov. Lyon, OF Mary
land, has represented to the President the
great danger of bloodshed at the State cleo
ton, and asked for United States troops to
protect the polls 10 Baltimore. The reply is
understood to DO refusal, coupled with the
statement, by way of explanation, that the
Government adheres to the principles cmbod.
led in the Attorney Generals opinion, de-
nying the application Of the Governor Of Call
ifornia for troops to assist in putting down
the San Francisco Vigilance Committee in
1856. SO the Marylanders are likely to have
free fight upon the most approved kilkSn-
ny principles on election day.

Republican Triumph,

Oct. lG, 1857.
Ems, GATE r:--Taylor county has at
last rolled up a Republican majority. Bogus
Democracy no longer stands trembling, but
is actually routed, Yea even fallen. This
dark corner Of Democracy has at length per-
mtted the bright rays of Republcanism to
illumine her political horizon; and one more
citadel of slavery has vanished before the
onward march Of constitutional freedom
There arc many old liners in this county now
under conriction, and We anticipate hap
py revival at our next semi-annual meeting
at the polls. The bred Scott decision is
enough to paralyze the action Of any honest
Democrat aho.is in reality a friend to free
soil. That decision having carried away the
doctrine of popular sovereignty, as taught by
them last year, leaves the party transfxed,
and already being in chaos, few more such
glaring Inconsistencies will involve them in
immediate rum. Respectfully,
