THE FUTURE OF PARTIES, is question that
is now engaging the attention of many. Pol
itics have been SO sadly scout of joint" during
the last three years that no one was able to
foresee very long what was to como next. The
slavery issue, however, springing up in new
form, had the effect of converging matters to
some extent, and finally the action Of Presi-
dent Buchanan, and those who pledged him to
be in favor of .sFree Kansas" in forcing thro'
the Lecompton swindle, in the shape of the
English bill, has drawn them to complete TO-
Gus. The local elections recently held plain
Iy indicate that large majority of the people
in the North are opposed in sentiment to the
policy of the Administration, and that there
is strong disposition on the part of the Re-
pubiicaIs, Americans and Anti-LecOmpton
Democrats to form themselves into one great,
national, patriotic party organization.
movement to this end has already been made
in New York, and doubtless it will continue to
extend until it spreads itself over the whole
country.

BRITISH AGGREssIONS

The recent insults to the American Flag by
British cruisers, have elected the severe and
just condemnation of the Press throughout
our country and we are exceedingly gratiied
at the prompt Government indications of
purpose to resent this interference with our
commerce.
4 message from the President, enclosing
letter from the Secretary OF the Navy on the
subject of British aggressions in the Gulf OF
Mexico, was sent to the Senate on Thursday'
and ordered to be printed.
Gen. Cass lays before Her Majesty's Minis
ter, in brief, the leading facts connected with
the operations of the ssStyX." Lord Napier
simply acknowledges the communication, and,
without submitting any views or opinions oi
his own on the subject, assures the Secretary
that his despatch viii be laid before his gov
ernment at as early day as possible.
But the most important and interesting COM
munication in the series, is the despatch from
the Secretary OF State, Gen. Cass, to the Amer
| lean Minister in London, Mr. Dallas, instruct
ing him to lose no time in laying before Her
| Maesty's government a statement OF these
| outrages, and to demand that the conduct OF
| the British officers be not only discontinued,
| but disavowed and condemned; and in cases
where actual loss has been sustained, indem-
nity is to be insisted upon.
The tone of the Secretary's note is dignih-
| ed and courteous but firm and decided. In
our Judgment, it meets the case precisely as
| it ought to be met. And We are quite persua-
| ded. that the reason for the remonstrance, and
! the demand for redress it conveys, are SO clear
and unquestionablc, that Her Majesty's govern
ment cannot fail to respond to it in beccm-
ing spirit, and with a prOmptitude which will
very speedily put at rest all apprehensions Of
| future trouble with England.
Accompanying these documents, we have {
| despatch from the Secretary of the Navy, an
nouncing that fleet of vessels had been or
| dered to cruise actively on the northern coas
| of Cuba to protect the persons and property
| of American citizens, and to protect all yes
sells of the United States from search or de
| tention from vessels of war of any other ma
| ton. Spain, also is to be held responsible TO
British outrages upon the American flag in the
