for the shortest period of service: of which sale

Mr. Calhonn.
The federal journals are filled with ros
" ana lre speculation in relation to what
they charge as the avowed adhesion nf Mr
udinoun to the Administration. It literally
engrosses the correspondence of their letter
writers and paragraphists at the seat of
government.
The truth is, thev are disnnointed and
foiled in their efforts to produce alienation
and division anions the friends of the admin-
lstrition; and the importance which they at-
ut-nio me lact that 31r. l. continues to sud-
port the measures ofthe administration, and
that hid personal relations with the President
are ofthe most friendly character, show the
exteat to which they had counted upon their
arts of cajolery and deception.
At the opening of the session when, ovvinr
o luminous circumstances, a Sub-Treasurv
Speaker was elected by the undivided "whig"
vote, added to a few of the Southern Stale
Rights votes, we were not only assured that
t was "by far the most brilliant and decided
vicMry that has yet been won by the Oppo
sition, but that it was the herald of the
Dissolution of the Van Buren Party.'1 The
Courier and Enquirer announced the event
with unbounded joy, for the present and the
uttire. "We inil the recent Whig triumph
on the election of Speaker (says that print)

henceforward to crown the combined efforts

esult, not so much for itself, as for its indira-
1011S ol administration divisions and ceieais.
In an article under the caption ol
ion ofthe Van Buren Parly," written
more than the usual talent of that print, we
will not say with any more lhan its usual as
sumption and assurance, and copied inio
most ol the r ederal journals of the day, it
was asserted that the influence of General
Jackson's popularity being no longer availa
ble, the "Van Buren party ' could not pre
serve its cohesion, nor of course maintain its
preponderance that Messrs. Calhoun and
Isenton. as the rival candidates lor the suc
cession, could no longer
outbreak that the President
friends had taken ground for Mr. Benton,
notwithstanding the aid which Mr. C. had
inao-nanimously brought to the material
measure of the administration ttiat neither
"would give Mr. V. B. a support any longer
than their own interest dictated and that
f ni now. certainly immedhtel v after the
presidential election, "the party
divide, and Mr. talhoun s strength preuonn
that of Mr. Benton." It insisted
that meanwhile Mr. Calhoun could not con
tinue to .support the administration; and as a
proof that he would not do so, it alhideikto
nretended -open and bitter denunciations ol
ti, fripmls of Mr. C. bv the loco-focos, be
cause the former would not vote in subser-
Mr. Benton's caucus. Finally it
concluded with a direct appeal to Mr. C
"Mr. Calhoun's keen forsirrht (it said) anti-
cioa ted the present state of things, and he
has learnt, truly, before it is loo late, that he
has no reason to confide in the Van Buren

since the commencement of the session, and
ne acknowledged that a ereat deal of lemil
lore had been elicited on one side, sustained
oy broad seals and quibbling technicalities;
whilst on the other, the simple facts seemed
to be mainly relied upon. He would not
permit Himself to go into an examination of
the subject uuder the circumstances in which
he stood, and would vote most cheerfully for
us immediate reterence to the Committee of
Elections, in conformity with the resolution
ofthe gentleman from South Carolina, TMr.
lyampbeii. J X o mat committee it ought to
tave gone a month since. But, (Mr. R.
said,) he rose chiefly for the purpose of re
pelling the charges brought against the peo
ple of Pennsylvania, the honest yeomanry of

others. He never would consent to set still
u his place aud quietly listen, for days and
weeks, to the continued strain of invective
there had been kept up here against his native
State and her institutions, and would expose
at once the presumption of the assailants, and
the utter recklessness of their assertions. I
say (continued Mr. R.) that my colleague has
utterly perverted the conclusion naturally to
be deduced from the Pennsylvania cases of
contested elections, as cited and applied to
the question now before the House. In truth,
both questions are indcnticaily the same in
le main particular and that is in the high
handed and daring attempt of the Governor
ud Council of JNew Jersey to appoint mem

monarch, is one of the most republican
countries of the old world almost demo
cratic in its institutions, customs and feelings,
and Bernadotte has less power and influence
than our Presidents and Governors: for when
Sweden aud Norway were united to make

so fierce in their opposition that it was found
necessary to grant them a constitution of
their own, abolishing nobility and containing
many democratic features, and they have ra
ther extended than diminished their privil

note how these sturdy sons ofthe North are
dvancing in prosperity, some glimpses of
which are given in the address of the Kin?
to the Storthing. In 1815, the situation of

surprising, Norway has in that time paid off
two-thirds of her debt, whirh will be entire

now, in specie and available bonds, more
than enough to meet ihe balance. The
King, who does not appear to be much of an
advocate of the anticipative credit system,
informs the Storthing that being thus on a
firm basis, it is possible to undertake many
improvements without having recourse to a
taxation on propetty, which was abolished
in 1836. The Nc r.vegians, it seems, if not
