lhe present session OF congress, between the UnI


ted States of America. and the United Kingdom
OF Great Britain and Ireland, by whicl, The for


ty.ninlh parallel of North Latitude will lie fixed


as tic boundaries of the Two nations,


Where wild Oregon nroars,
And hears no sound. save its own dashing,''


That llis treaty will be CONFIRMED by two thirds


of an American Senate. is also highly probable;
ami that this unfortunate c,rnt " i'll be niiiiy


owing tot strange union, suddenly framed, between


the democratic Sena,oGs Of opposing sections, is


not only feared, but expected, by those wl.o stand


upon the pinnucles Of The CrpiIo, uud "snufi'ihc


battle from aiar."


The departure of 1.-THE CONSTITUTION" the
Southern organ, from the seat of government al


the moment when Mr.. Calhoun himself, was
about 10 return 10 tie Senate. where by hs in


hucncc, the patronage of that body could lave


been bestowed upon il, with show ofjus,icc, and


wllhou! doing violence TO rariy: the sudden demise
Of, that paper in Baltimore after its extraordinary


removal; the confirmation of l.. McLane. as Minis.
Ter to the Court of ST. James the sudden inter.
views between the present Secretary OF State and
the late premier. now again returned 10 the Scna.
toral Chair from South Carolina /; the proposition
presented voluntarily by the Prcslden! Of tho U.
Sialcs to the British Envoy, to sever and divide
that, which the Blltimoro Convention had declared
10 be one aud indivisbe; the war speeches made
in the Senate, in anticipation of a renewal and fl.
nal acceptance of such propositions; and the vain
attempts of Mr.. AIIen,by his joint resoIuton,o give
notice 10 close the joint occupancy Of the territory,
and of Messrs. Dougass,pnd Hannegan. dcnounc-
ing the giving upof any portion Of Oregon as anti
American. and anti-Democ ratio; all serve TO con.
vince the most ncreduIous that Oregon is about TO
be diyided-w,hout struggle. and as is usual, in
such cases, the strong hand is to have the lions
share.


And why is Oregon TO be divided! Is it because
the Convention of Baltimore, when they promu.
gated the principles upon which the great popular
battle in 1914 was 10 be fought, so willed il! Mt
at all, for the Convention declared that our right
the whole Of fOrcgon was clear and unquestonablel
and that no portion OF it should be surrendered
TO Great Britain any other power. Is itbecauso
the American people deemed trght and proper 10
divide and surrender it, during the election OF,
1874! Not at all-for the watch-word of the
Democracy during that campaign was '.Polk, Tex.
as and Orcgen."l Is it because the Congess tina,
sat after the election of Mr.. Polk, determined to
surrender this beautiful country of harbors and
forests, of plains and valleys, TO the British Mon
,rchl No, at a!l-for the House of Represen-
,atiyes, inst before the 4th of March, lo45, BY q
large majority, passed u bill 10 extend the laws
of the Union over tina! territory 10 the Russian
settlements, and the Senate, bu, for the vote of
the South Carolina Senators, would have passed
the same into law Of the land. Is il because
the lute premier had lief; the negotiation in such
n predicamont that the new President found his
hands tied, and, 10 make finish Of Il bad matter.
odop,ed the forty.nin,h parallel as choice OF evil!
Not at all-for when MIR. Packenham came 10
trent with Mr.. Calhoun, the latter Informed him
that he could not negotiate below tho forty-ninth
uoraIIel and tie :ormcr replied that he could not
NEGOTIATE above i,-and there the matter rested;
rho former sending home for new powers, and tue
latter standing TO his utinatun. Is 1t because
(;eu,fJacksop who stood firm when France threat
ened us with war, rather than topay her Just
debts deemed i, proper 10 negotiate and surrender
his n. Western Eden 10 Great Britain! Not at
,ii--f,r General Jackson declared, most uEequlv.
ocsy, in relation to Oregon, that he would noso.
,ate only at the cannon's mouth. Is it because
the President himself upon his accession to office
deemed our tito bad. and negotiation propeyt--I
No--for tho President in his inaugural message
drc'ared our title to Oregon 'cleqr mud unquestion-
oble ;, Wby then is Oregon ID bcdivided? We an
swer-,o please the peacep party or the South. Aye,
