The washington Union, the grand central or
..n - the National Administration, makes the
followine extraordinary confession OF the utter
weakness of the Administration party in Con-
orsss It shows to how serious an extent the de-
lection of Mr. Douglas and others, on account Of
yhe Lecompton nfamy, has detracted from the
strength of the party. and rendered 1t an easy
matter to overthrow it at the next PRESIDENTIAL
election, provided there can be anything Ike

Bbt while the opposition in Congress has th1s'
upon great things and little things, SHOWN oe-
gree Of p triotic liberality towards the suin.ls-
tration which not expected tne Iac, u?s,
mischief making course pursued by the reoeiious

Democracy is without parallel IN the records Vi

Indeed all the embarrassments and ali the
troubles of Mr.. Buchanan, with this late seseiOh
OF Congress, were the results OF the IaeuSuS, ue
morslized and intractable condition oil the Oein-
ocrstic majority Of both houses.
The members belonging TO the opposition
whose aid secured the passage of the LecomptOn
infamy, are those heretofore classed as Southern
Americans, who went excepting few of the
honorable stamp, like Crittenden, Bell, Humph-
rey Marshall, Winter Davis, &C., with the Ad-
ministration on that matter. The "factious,
intractable" Democrats alluded to, who are
charged with " treachery" and rebellion in op'
posing the darling scheme of the party in powers
to which they were asked to bow the knee in sub
mission, are Douglas and his five Democratic col
leagues from Illinois, in the House, Davis of In
diana, Haskin and Clark of New York., Hick-
man and Montgomery Of Pennsylvania, McKib-
ben and Senator Broderick Of California, Senator
Stuart Of Michigan, &c, II the loss Of men Of
this stamp, who have always heretofore been fore
most leaders of the party in power, is 10 be made
up BY future support from few Southern Know
Nothings, who have always been hitherto the bit
terest opponents Of democracy" then the Ad-
ministration may be welcome to the change. for
all the benefit that will thereby to the par
ty which prefers such aid.
