Dae- 86.
We learn from New York that the graad Do.
rooeratic Committee, ju?t cteetcd, for the city of
Now Xork, is eo ooropoecd m to give a preponderance
to the Calhoun men. This ii the more pro.
bebfo fbr the reason that moot of the young men of
thed emocratic patty in New York are fiicndly to
the election of Mr. Calhoun.
There are symptoms even here of movements
in favor of Mr. Calhoun. Mr.Cushing in uspeech
of yesterday, which aroused much party feeling,
on all aides, alluded very strongly to the diaecn.
lions iu the democratic ranks, and thereupon warn,
ed thorn that tho administration could exercise a
decided influence in the ultimate choice, if they
chose.
By tho way, Mr. Cushing's speech on tho Bank,
rapt Repealing Act lias opened a grand political
debate?which may last till many of its participants
are politically bankrupt?i. e. till their terra of
service shall expire.
Mr. Cusliing certainly aroused tho attention of
both aides of tho House in a remarkable degree.?
The Globe considers his doctrines as profligate,
boca use he offers the cooperation of the Executive |
with any party that will cooperate with it. The
Globe, Itowcvar, it must be remembered, has
steadily repelled all the cflbrts of tho Tyler men
to creep into the democratic ranks, and for the
plain reason that there would not be offices enough
for all.
The bankrupt debate is the great political debate
of the session. Mr. Arnold began it. Mr. Coehing
has spoken boldly, nnd with mono truth than
poetry, on the aide of the administration. Mr.
Thompson, of InJiana, on the whig aide, spoko
very ably to.day?allowing the inoonaistrncica of
Mr. Cusbing, Mr. Webster, Mr. Tyler, Ac. Mr.
Kennedy, of Indiana, a thorough loco-foco, vpoko
most earnestly on the other aide, and vindicated i
democracy and Tylcriam. Mr. Wiac haa the floor
for tomorrow, and will, I doubt not, exert him re If
ery much.
The Senate is not engaged in any business of
public importance.
Washington, Doc. 29.
The debate in the House on tho position of the
Fyler Administration ; tho causes of tho failure of
Whig measures, and of the defeat of tho Whig
party at the late elections; the prospect* of the
Democratic party; the next Free dcutid election,
ko., is still going on, and is not likely to abate in
utercst. Mr. Cushiug'a speech is regarded as a
Uuhinct manifesto. Mr. Horace Everrctt dcclar.
id that U was prefaced by advice and ultcrod by
lulhority. The speech, or pmel tmaUnu?'whatever
it may be called, has proved a failure, so far
&s it wus intended to intimidate or coax either the
Wbiga or tho Democrats into the support of the
Administration of Jolut Tyler and I bo paasago of
ho Exchequer Bill. Tho Whigs, through Mr.
riiompaon, of Indiana, declared they would neither
io bribed nor brow.bcatcn into it, and his colleague,
Mr. Kennedy, says the Democrats will not bid a
soppcr (or John Tyler, even now that he is put
ip with all his patronage for sale to any party.?
Mr. Konncdy, however, in the oonrse of his speech
did Mr. Cushing the justice to treat his proposi.

Kennedy,* remarks arc worth Yepestiog.
' Mr. Kennedy until, lio would tell lite
genii 'titnn from Massachusetts, (Mr.
Gushing) (hut on behalf of bin party he
could ittvo no bid. Hut he Hcurccly thought
the gentleman in earnest. Ho had not
understood Ititn ns bringing in Mr. Tyler
to bo bid for here, though lie must confess
his speech httd a most powerful leaning
that way. [Roars of merriment.] lie
hnd understood the guntlotnnn simply to
mean lliat Mr. Tyler was Picsidcul ol
the United States; that those who had
put him into office no-v turned out to be a
taction, and were willing to break up and
destroy the Government for ti:o sake of
wreak ng their vongonnge upon him, (at d
there was too much troth in tliul;) ami
that Mr. Tyler, be ng in charge of (he
Government, must carry it on with the
best means he had. If that was what that
gentleman meant, and he meant, Mr. K
corresponded with hun in opinion. As
long ns Mr. Tyler was President, he wns
President; the Government was not to
lie stopped, [t was not very material to

material that the Government should go
,>n. And if tie found (hat a certain set
of men were hanging on its wheels and
slogging them so that they cuuld not
move, it was his duty to demand support
wherever there was honesty enough to (
give it. If this was all the geniloman ,
meant, Mr. K. applauded the sentiment ;
ind hoped tho groat Democratic party
would take especial care to net as their I
tvowed principles should demand." j
Mr. Wise had tho floor to-day, and 1
>ublic curiosity wag much excited in re- 1
gnrd to his defence of his position. But <
VIr. Wiso was so much cramped by the ?
me hour rule, thnt ho made little imprcsuon.
He undortook to show that the Whig
iissensions commenced prior to the innu. '
juration of Harrison, and that the par. 1
ty would hnvo fallen to pieces, even if 1
Harrison hnd not been taken away. 1
