Alarm of the Democratic Leaders.

WASHINGTON, November 1.-THE Demo.

rible shock by the publication OF a leading
editorial in to.days New York Sun, the
pith Of which is contained in the follow.

Just taken place in several States show

publican strength as to render it altogeth.
rr probable that the Republicans will be

next year. The greatest question, the on
great question now before the country,
becomes who that candidate shall be
This is a view OF the subject which the
Democracy are not willing TO take.
Mr.. John G. Thompson, Sergeant.at-
Arms Of the House, in commenting upon
the Slm's declaration, says that no
thoroughbred ever shows the white
feather year in advance OF battle, and
that the Sun is yeathercock, anyhow,
and no reliance can be placed upon it.
Thompson, speaking for himself and a
leader OF the Ohio Democracy, asserts that
his party will surely carry New York and
Indiana in 1850, and elect new President.
As to the candidate, Thompson says that
both parties are looking out for man who
can carry these two States, and when he
is sfound be will be nominated.
Thompson virtually abandons Ohio and
comedies that it is strong Republican
State. This is the first time Thompson
has been known to concede anything.

more convenient for the latter on the con-

that the Powers are opposed to aggressive
measures in England, and that none Of

WASHINGTON, November 1.-THE Cab.
met meeting to-day was attended by oil
the members and was OF unusually long
duration. Most Of the time, aside from
that devoted to the transaction OF merely
routine business, was occupied discussing
questions Of constitutional and inter.
national law In connection with the sub.
ject OF theproClamation recently issued by
the Canadian government permitting
American vessels TO come to the relief OF
Canadian vessels in the waters OF the
Dominion only when the danger of the
loss OF life or cargo Is absolutely imminent.
4 law now upon our statute book allows
Canadian vessels TO enter our waters free.
ly and render assistance to American
vessels In distress under any Circum-
stances and TO any extent. II was
suggested to-day thatthe President should
declare by proclamation that the privi.
leges OF Canadian vessels In our waters
shall be precisel Y the same as those nc.
corded by the Canadian authorities to
American vessels and no greater, but the
Cabinet were divided In opinion as to the
power OF the President under our existing
law to issue a qualified proclamation OF the |
nature above indicated, and at close dis.
cussiOn the whole matter was left unde.
termined. 1t will probably be decided,
however, in the next few days. The
President announced to the Cabinet to.
lay that he thought OF offering the ap.
pointment Of the District Of Columbia
10 Gen. Holbert f. Paine,
The present Commissioner OF Patents. The
suggestion was received with great ap.
proval by all present except the Secretary
of the Interior, who, while fully agreeing
with the other heads OF Departments as to
Gen. Paine's eminent qualifications for
the appointment, expressed strong dis
inclination TO see him retire from the po.
sitton which he now fills so aCceptably. It
is generally believed that Gen. Paine, al
though not an applicant, will accept the
District Of Columbia Commissiouership.
Among the statements current tonight
as to tile recommendation that will be
made in the coming department reports
and which although lacking official c0n6r-
nation seem to be well founded, are the
viz: That Secretary McCrary
will endorse General Sherman's recon-.
for the legislation to establish
an army on the basis Of 5000 men, rank
and file, not including the men detailed
for special duties, and that Attorney
General Devens will renew his recon-
that the District Attorneys be
paid fixed salaries, and will also recon.
mend some change by Congress in the law
governing the method Of paying clerks Of
the United States Courts.
