WASHINGTON, April ls. leH


The Senate preamble and resolutions of notice,
were early this morning, under the operation of Tia
previous question IN the House. foaIIv passed.
with amendments. changing somewhat their phrase
ology, but not materially. See House proceedings.


The resolution Of the Senate is al follows.-" Be
itresoved, etc., that the Presiden, Of the United
States, be, and he is hereby authorised at his d.
crefio TO give to the British government the notice
REQ iIred by said second arcle OF the abrogatou
Of the said convention Of the 6tn OF August 1877"
The amendment 70 this section made by the House,
is IN the following worde:-"Sec 2. And be il fur.
iher resolved, that the President OF the United
Saes be authorized and requested give the British
government the notice required BY its second article
for the abrooaton Of the said convention OF the 9Th
OF August, 1927"


The amendment was carried by larger msjorafy
than what the House resolutions were passed by,
10 proportion TO the number that voted on both
slons The ayes bssng IA, tAs ~ays Il. bssSg Sssvs


Unless the Senate be inclined to act stubboruIy.
and do nothing more than what they nave already
done, the House viii eventually pass iheir reso!u.ica
tor the purpose OF catching them in trap Of their
own making; tor, u 10 currently believed that they
would not have ever passed Mr. Cnuendrn's sms nd
ment, amended by Mr.. Johnson, OF Maryland. ir
they had thought the House would scssde to il. Ia
this, however. they will be disappointed. ior A.
derstand the House, rather thsu have no form oi
tlce, but particularly which has hardly an OBJ
jectlonshle feature in a. THAT Of the Senate, Will
vote II through on Tuesday next. il the Senate do
not concur In their amendnsnt Of TO-DAY.


As soon ~ the Presldent Ands himself authorised
to act, he will forthwith issue his proclamation dis
solving the joint OCCUPANCY, IN accordance with tho
terms OF the treaty Of the Oh OF August, 1897. and
lfave the issue 10 his God and bis country. Mr..
Polk is determined on doing his duty. ssd will look
to ,he country at large to ssstaln him, a. General
Jackson before him has done, and let politicians say
and do az they may think fit.


The opposition IN the Senate TO the House resolu.
ton, has been more Of party manOuvrc than any
thing else; for, il 10 well known that II the wings
could succeed In throwing the responsibility OF giv.
ing the notice exclusively upon the Presldent and
he should not feel himself at liberty give il, il
and his party, at The next Presidential election
This, his friends are willing that he should do,
either Tor himself his party II the three branches
OF the government--the President, Senate and
House OF Representatives, have not the courage TO
snare equally the responsibility OF giving the notice,
away the entire Oregon territory TO the Eagiish
government. This would be more honorable
course than the paltry, IT not cowardly manner IN
W hch the subject has been hitherto treated.


Judge Douglass bill extending the laws OF tho
Unted States the Oregon territory, Passed the
Mr.. Hopkins amendment, establlshing post ofhces
and post routes, was carried along with IT,.


1 Many ditbeieve that Mr. Sdell was in the city
this week, but was nevertheless 20, 40 was In
formed OF his arrival about ten mnuies Afterwards,
by gentleman well acquainted with him, who saw
him. That he should rem,in here Ia 20 private a
way IS not at all surprising, when we all remember
how secretly he departed upon his mission 70 Mexi-
co. Even the I" organ" did not know 1t at the umes
tor II said that this government would make more
overtures to Mexico, while Mr.. Sidell was on his
way there to make them. ARigL..
