TFfr: NATIONAL APMIN'l^’TRATIOK. There is but one opinion auion" men of ull piirtios in relation to the course of the present Adjniuistration, in its nuiuiigomcnt of our foreign :\ud iloniesstic aft’ivivs. Its evorv act—and partieularly those parUiking of a parliKan political character—may not receive the ap|U'l>ation of all; hut its gen- i ral polirv is such as to commend if to the j taviirahle consideration of tiie Americ.-m people. It has heen eminently siuiCHstdl I movement that we trust will never be t.»- ken by any administration of the C.overn- ment of the U. States.—X Commcn-1. The N Y.

Tiie agitation upon a (|U s.‘ion of great interest, w^iich has divided the country iiito section- nl parties ever since the formation of the nuuent. l^it tliis has been settled, if not to the satisfaction of all, yet in sueh a manner as to command the actiuiescence ol every good and {>atriotie citizen.

A weak or vascillating Administration woulil have plunged the corntry into ditVu ulties almost inextricalde—would have increased the estrangement and widened the breach between the antagoni.'tie sections. Hut, fortuuutely for the country, it had a I’resi- *ient at the head i>f its alfairs etjual to the ciuergencv, and surrounded by one ot the strongest and abh'st (’abinets that have till- cd the chairs of state since the organr/atioii of the government.—AUmny linjistir. We cor.ceive tliat no impartial, intelli- f r Mr. Kiilmore gent man will deny the frnth ainl justii-e to be put ii{»: am of the Kt’gisfi'r’s reinark. The commen dation best(.i\vi*d i;jioii the Presidt'iit and his ('abinet is eminently desirvei I. X or are we moved to tin's exjiression of sentiment only or even ]>riiicipally by political at tachments. It is of the President and his able advisers officially, and ntH ]>(>litieally, that we speak. Of the ardent jiatriotism .•iiid the }»ure intent of oiir (’hief .^btiris- trate, none that know him, or that have wati hed his alministration since he .-uc- ceeded to the White House, can entertain the slightest doubt. A unity of purpose has been a}i]>arcnt in all his j.vil.lieacts—a linn resolve to maintain law and ciMistitu- tional obligations inviolate at home, and to make the national character re'pei ted a- brofld.
