The Coming Administration~The Great Question of the Day. The intelligence from Washingtoa, which we gave yesterday, has withdrawn the veil from a por- tion of the future in relation to public affairs, aud in some measure opened upfor politicians aud philo- sophers a new subject ot inquiry, which will, in all probability, become tie great question of the day, We allude to the problem which will be solved in a few months—what is to be predomisant—who is to possess the predominant influence in the demo- eratic party in Congress, and in the coming admi- nistration on the accession of Mr. Polk ? Tt is well known that the party which has just elected Mr. Polk President of the United States, 1s divided into a variety of cliques, but recognize only two grand divisions—that which may be called the South Carolina influence, and, the other, the New York influence. These divisions have been, respectively, represented heretofore by Mr. Calhoun and Mr. Van Buren. The South Caro- lina influence, by incomparable tact at the Balti- more Convention, upset the New York influence, and, both united, nominated and elected Mr. Polk. Now, the question springs up, which of these influences will prevail inthe White House, on the 4th of March next, and thereafter? In the settlement of this question, we have no doubt that the particular tone and character of the present democratic members of the House of Re- presentatives and Senate will be otf great and everwhelming importance. The recent elections bring upon Congress a variety of new questions, and new measures, and new views, which will probably create a new division in that body, In the present House of Representatives there are one hundred and thirty-seven democrats ard seventy-eigh. whige, with five vacancies. It was generally understood, at the last session of Congress, that the majority of the democratic members were favorable to Mr. Van Buren and op- posed to Mr. Calhoun, Now, onthe assembling of the present Congress, there isno doubt that a great effort will be made by the South Carolina in- fluence to reorganize the democratic members in the House, who are the representatives of the masses throughout the country, and to gain a ma- jority, under the impression—which is at all events feasible—that whoever has that will ex- ercise a preponderating influence with the new President. It will be observed, that in all these views and conjectures, we treat Mr. Tyler with all respect, but he must now be set down as an ‘obsolete idea.” A new order of things has sprung from the recent elections, and although there may be an indirect approval of his policy, still all that he can do during his brief term of office, will be to bequeath, untarnished and un- touched, the principles and measures which have been approved by the people in the recent elections throughout the country, in the return of Mr. Polk. The cabinet consultations at Washington—the Movements there—and the influences already ut work, will no doubt have a great eflect, and pro- duce corresponding results on the present members of Congress, and their opinions expressed on the public measures approved or disapproved of in the recent elections, must have an effect on the mind of the new President. In the meantime, while we have exhibited the movements of the Calhoun influence already in operation, relative to future measures and move- ments, we ought not to omit stating that the Van Buren influence is equally hard at work. Imme- diately on the result of the Presidential election in this State being known, a deputation of the confi- dential friends of the ex-President went on to Phil- adelphia, and had some consultations with the “Tice President elect, Mr. Dallas. The precise ob. sect we have not heard, and it is not necessary to inquire. The influence of the Vice President du- ring the life of the President is but small, and that only has reference to a casting vote, should a tie take place on any particular measure. Still, the very hastiness of the movement of the friends of the ex-President in proceeding to Philadelphia to waitonthe Vice President elect, indicates the sensitiveness of the two great “influences” inrela tion to the position to take with Mr. Polk whon he comes to Washington, and assumes the reins of office. We understand that Silas Wright himself, now the governor elect of New York, in- tends to be at Washington during the first month of the present session. He does not assume his official duties in New York till January. In the meantime, while the other journals of the two parties, and particularly those of the triumph- ant party, are filling their columns with idle and un- meaning twaddle about returns and causes and con- *eanences, we shall be engaged in watching nar- suwiy the movements of the various parties at Washington and elsewhere, who will have in their power the formation of the new policy that will probably distinguish the administration of the go- vernment, both during t\e approaching session and during the Presidency of Mr. Polk. We conceive that by the results of the recent elections, a deci- sion has been obtained in favor of a system of measures which will create a great revolution in ha action of government, both in its domesticand foreign affairs—A new systemof commercial trea- ties similar to that of the Zoll-Verin treaty, @ modification of the tariff, and a reduction of im- posts to a rete adequate merely for the payment of the national debt and the expenses of the govern- ment—may be expected either at the approaching session, or soon after the opening of the new Presi- dency. A new system of general finance for the government may also be expected, possessing a conservative power capable of presenting some check to the expansive nature of the banking sys- tem still in existence throughout the Union. And, above all, the re-annexation of Texas and the oc- cupation of Oregon, may be expected to be pursued now with the most vigorous ardour and at any risk, both by the present and the coming adminis- tration, An entirely different line of national policy, in fact, from that which would have been adopted by Mr. Clay, may even be expected ; and if that po- liey be carried out with force, energy, and vigor, there is every probability that our relations with England, with France, and with other portions of the world, may be materially changed in a very few years. We should not be at all surprised to see the commencement of some new movement, having for its object not only the enlargement of the territorial possessions of this Republic, but the complete and final esta- blishment of American manufactures, and the con- sumption at home of all the cotton grown in this country, so asto create a rivalry with England, and supply the markets beyond the Atlantic. If such should be carried into effect, nothing; could save England and France from the greatest and most ruinous revolution that has taken place in the old world within the last few hundred years. The moment that this country obtains the manufac- turing superiority over England, at which we have hinted, that moment a revolution bursts out inthe heart of England which nothing could stop or hinder, and which would be followed by France and the whole of Western Europe, from north to south—from the Baltic to the Mediter- ranean. Tus Dargat or THe Wuics.—The defeat of the whig party in the recent election has produced a variety of curious movements of all kinds. It would appear, according to all accounts, that the great mass of the feople opposed to the democratic party are forming themselves into three grand di- visions. The “liberty party,” which was such a powerful instrument in the defeat of Mr. Clay in the free States, has been organized for three or four years past, and is now determined to take the field stronger and with more fierceness than ever They are satistied with the recent result. On the other hand, the whig party proper, or what is left of it, appears to be in a state of the greatest per- plexity and disorder. One portion want to fallin with the ‘“* Native American” party, and another. portion declare that they will not have anything to do with them. But in order to exhibit more clearly this curious ‘state of affairs, we will annex a few extracts from a recent article by Thurlow Weed, in the Evening Journal :— . . . . . . , But all thia would not have availed to procure a triumph, but for the mad and inexcusable folly of a P rtion of the whigs themsel The conductof the whigs of the city of New York as that wrested a certain victory from their party. The death blow to the success of Henry Olay wi ruck in the election of Mayor Harper. The alli med bet ween the whigs and the natives in New York to reform their city government, furntehed our op- ponents with just the facts they needed to give a color of truth to the false charges with which they hnve ever sought to array naturalized citizens ogainst the whig party. All, whose political vision is not bounded by the shores of Manhattan island foresaw this effect, and it was not tillthe Leeefoco party adopted the atrocious Texas project and for it shamefully cast aside Van Buren, that hopes of being able to carry the State of New York began again to be entertained by the whigs of the interior. "A heavy day was it, that brought the news that the twenty thousand whigs of New York on theeve of an election upon which depended the prosperity and security ‘of the country and long deferred justice to Henry Clay, had forgotton their country for their city and rushed like silly sheep into the trap which tho evil genius of the whi party had prepared for them. The subsequent attempte: ‘arrangement to secure by the sacrifice of the whig Con- greasmen, Senator and Assemblymen, the native votes for Clay the whig Mayor and Council had been sacrificed in the spring for nothing, was perhaps the only expedient which lett any hope of remedying the evil, which the re. sult has proved irreparable. Had the second coalition proved successful i ing the election, the whigs of the country would have owed no thanks to the whigs of New York. The account would only have been balanced. As it is, a few more faithful whigs have been sacrificed to no purpese whatever. Such has be: e disastrous effest of the native Ame- rican movement, which, like the Abolition movement before it, has blighted the Whig party Jan asthe 1 bos harvest appeared. It hes had on e effect which any person could have predicted. Against a perty which prescribes a class of our inhabitants, that class will, ond with justice, array themselves, and their hostility must extend to those who in any way connect themsolves with the proscriptive party. Now that the mischief ia done and the ruin we too truly anticipated, complete, we shall not be suspected of insincerityfin continuing te bear testi- mony against the principles of the native American party. It is with infinite regret that we perceive a dis- position on the part of some of our Whig friends to hug tothe breast this viper which has stung their party to the heart. That the great mass of naturalized citizens have been grossly deceived in respect to the views of the conduct ot the Whig party (owards foreigners we all know, and no one will deny that asa class thay are peculiarly liable to be deceived. But should our wrath be directed atthem for an ignorance and credulity, their misfortune rather than fault, or at those demagogues who have taken ad vantage of their ignorance to deceive them, and abused their credulity by leading them to vote egainst the policy upon which their very bread depends? Jt is asource of t satisfaction to us that in this city, the base misre- re saries did not availto blind the eyesof naturalized citizens to their true interests, and did we feel that one whig had a right to compliment another for doing what he only considered his duty, we should certainly say something in praise of this portion ofour fellow citizens But we believe that they voted the Whig ticket forthe same reneons and motives that we did,and to single them out for praise would be a question. able compliment. This article discovers very plainly the opinion entertained of the ‘ natives” by a portion of their ci devant friends and allies, the whigs. At the same time we find one of their earliest and mest valiant friends—the Journal of Commerce of this city— coming out very strongly against them, on account of their violent and proscriptive and intolerant principles and conduct, in an article of great force and sound sense and ergument :— [From the Journal of Commerce ‘The American Republicans formed associations, subscribed toa particular declaration of sentime! objects. A very small portion of the voters whogave the movement its triumphs, ever joined the associations or knew what was its c The city wi ied upon the two great ideus of religious sects and no for in politica,” and New York policy for New v, carried out by honest men.” Whether the na- turalizatiun laws were to be altered, was @ question which few considered. To some extent there was an unkind feeling towards foreigners ; but in generel there was no wish for anythirg else than that they should cease to be foreigners. In fact the feeling of indignation was chiefly pointed towards the political leaders of both parties, ond Bishop Hughes, with a few of his associates. The great mass of foreigners were not blamed for their co-operaticn with bad men ; for it was seen that they were deceived and misled. Since then va ious incidental measures have been taken by variouspersons. We have understood thit papers bave been circulated, by which the signers egreed not to employ Catholic Irish servants. But no such movement ever haa or ever ought to receive general con currence. In fact, wé thmk the general feeling amon the people is as kind toward foreigners as it ever wae, if not moreso. There isa fixed determination that Catho- lic priests shall take their position with the ministers of other denominations, and that they shall not be political lenders; and that, whether native or adopted, none but Americans shall be known in politics The events in Philadelphia have given a terrific importance te these po- sitions, and fixed them immovably, to a great extent, in the minds of Catholic adopted citizens, as well as in the minds of native protestants. To u great extent, there- fore, the moral design of the American Republican mor ment has been already achieved; and if men expect t personal hatred towards foreigners or Catholics will sus- tain a great movement hereafter egainst them, our im- ression is, that they will be disappointed; for no such feeling exists to a sufficient extent for the | sors) Ap fort to harm foreigners or Catholics unjustly would de- stroy any partys who should make it. It would be bring- ing into political combinations. precisely the ingredient which we have resolved jshould not be there. To adopt an anti-Catholic or unti-foreign policy, would be to bring in both these elements. Whether the principle is used positively or negatively, it is the e principle and equally objectionable. The reference to the proscription of poor Irish servant girls may appear incredible to some ; but it is too true. We have seen in some of the “‘native” papers recently, indignant appeals, addressed to all who have Insh servants in their families, to turn them off on account of their religion. A more in- solent, outrageous and despicable attempt to carry political feeling, not only into the domestic circle, but into thejvery kitchen, we have never before witnessed or heard of. To proscribe a poor cook— or a chambermaid—or waiter, on account of their religion, is surely the insanity of bigotry and into- lerance. One thing is certain, however, sucha gross outrage will at once meeta crushing indigna- tion in such a land as this. It is such conduct as his, on the part of certain miserable demagogues, which has already driven off from the “ native” party almost all reepectable and intelligent persons who connected themselves with it last spring on the ground of obtaining city reform, And we tell Mayor Harper, Alderman Cozzens, and all such men as have any liberality and respectability in that party, that unlees they give a better direction to the elements which they can control, they will, if they be again candidates for office, be indig- nantly rejected by a greater majerity, and with more disgrace, than any defeated candidates ever were rejected In making t.cse observations, we do not in the slightest degree alter the ground which we took in relation to Bishop Hughes and his injudicious con- duct, We disapprove as strongly as ever of his movements inthe political arena. We do not sub- tract one iota from the condemnation with which we visited his interference in secular affairs. In their day, we disapproved on the same grounds of Dr. Brownlee’s, and|Dr. Cox’s, and Dr. Kirk’s into- Jerant and inflammatory harrangues. These traders in sectarian rancor and sectarian intolerance we shall always oppose and condemn. Henee our ‘condemnation of the violent, proscriptive and out» Tageous conduct of the “ native” demagogues.— And next spring they will discover that an enlight ened community will not tolerate such on decency, on religion, on every principle of enlight- ened liberty, as those of which they now stand guilty before the world. s Election News.

James Gonvon Bunvett, Esq., Editor of the New York Herald :— Dear Sin, Thave just seen an article in your valuable peper, which I am assured you will treat with the proper degree ot contempt, when you became aware of its character. Notwithstanding you have so frequently warned your cor indent! ainst the usefot persenalities {in their Jetters, the person who writes from this city under date ‘of yesterday, hes disgraced your paper, by the basest slanders, against the character and fame of a young author. I pronounce all that part of the Philadelphia letter of the date to which reference ie made, which names the un- dersigned, a falsehood from first to last ; the (production of a liar and a coward. To show you how far slander can go, I will simply state. that {act correspondent hos dragged up from the grave, the bones of my mother, who has now been dead some fifteen years, and paraded her ni before the rea- ders of your paper, with ubusive remar! No man would do this, except an escaped convict, or a forger. You will uot sanction, a thing of this kind, I am assured. Do you want to know, who are the men who pursue me, with calumniation of this kind ? The some infamous (clique of Philadelphia aristocracy whom you have been satirizing for years. You know their names, and can appreciate their merite. Iskulk behind no anonymous signature, but satisfied that James Gordon Bennett, who has felt the malignity of this same Philadelphia clique, is abeve their mi and their lies. I remain, truly acy GEORGE LIPPARP. All this fuss and fury will give edge to the sub- ject—and make people inquire for the brochure, and also crowd to the theatre that first produces it here, if it is to be produced, as hinted at in some of the papers. Asto the “ Philadelphia clique,” alluded to, we know them not, nor who they are. If any clique hate us, they do so solitary and alone—we cannot return the sentiment—and care nothing about their love or hatred. Mr. Anperson at tur Parx Last Nicur.—The Park was crowded last night to see Mr. Anderson again as ‘Claude Melnotte.” It is long since we heard the walla of that theatre echo such cordial applause, as was elicited throughout the entire per- formance. The plaudits at the close of the im- passioned scene in the fourth act where Claude bids farewell to Pauline and his mother, and in ut- ter agony of soul rushes forth in his noble career of ambition and manly effort, were particularly warm and enthusiastic. Mr. Anderson has cer- tainly made the greatest ‘ hit,” to use the common theatrical slavg, in this character, of any actorthat has appeared in inany years on the American stage. We cannot omit also “again rendering a just tri- bute of approbation to Miss Clara Ellis, on account of her performance. It was natural, graceful, carefully studied, and effective from beginning to end, There wasa slight eprinkling of the aris- tocracy of the last generation in the house, but the great mass of the audience were composed of that new class only of late seen in such numbers in our theatres—the aristocracy that is to be—now in tramsitu—in the chrysalis state, as it were, but soon to burst into the golden butterfly state of beau- ty, taste and fashion. The aforesaid chrysalis called Mr. Anderson out on the fall of the curtain, and gave him a greeting, loud, hearty, boisterous, unfashionable, if you will, but withal very warm and very sincere. Mr. Dinngrorp.—This excellent and favorite actor has a benefit to-night at the Chatham, and offers a most attractive bill of fare.

New Youn, Nov. ie ae . 18th, 1844, Some time previous to the election,you expressed and reiterated your epinion that a majority of voters in the United States were decidedly whig, and that it only required exeitement to bring them all out, and thus ensure the triumphant election of the whig candidates. I trust you will now a knowledge the error of that aseertion. A large body, which promises only to be equaled by the movements of St. James’ on the other side of ‘the Herring Pond. Thus Tammany Hall is doomed to become, under such management, the Almacks of our city—this great country—Oregon and Texas included. The large room of Tammany Hall wes gaily decked out for the occasion. The walls were co- vered with banners aad flags of every kind from the different democratic ciubs in the city and neighborhood; from the orchestra waived various cotton pocket handkerchief union flags, one bear- ing the inscription, “The Empire is coming— Coons beware.” At the bottom end, the large at ise coased and the light disappeared.

And if the whige, asa party, "arer succeed on national Senate Oe in 1840, it is owing to apathy on the part of the democrats, or temporary delusion of the people. X Answer—We don’t give up yet.

The rep lations for the occasion was. most ex- cellent. The members of the club performed the duty of being their own police, and kept order most admirably, not at all troubling the present occupants of the Jorge establishment in the Park opposite, or lodgings being required for more than some five or six in the capacious ding esta- blishment in Centre street. It was ordered that carriages should set down with horses heada to- wards Chatham street, and take up with the horees heads towardsjDr. Spring’s Church. qj About 8 o’clock the company began to arrive, but some difficulty was experienced in cons quence of previous atrangements.
