The Whig Party and 0regou-The Notice and


The Express.


The Express follows up irs attack on the !" mig
Members OF The Legislature by one on The Inoune
In which II asserts that


1.-THE Tribune bas changed front by order It's editor
has been 10 Albany and got his lesson.


Now we do not remember having conversed on
the Oregon Question With any ono in Albany save
Ia passing allusion to the OF the day. Sure we
are ;ha, 10 one solicited or suggested a change OF
front on the part OF The Tribune. Whoever will
look 10 cur leading article of Nov goth last will

nince We pronounced the giving of Notice 10 Great
Britain not Inconsistent with The maintenance OF
Peace, while on the appearance of the Presidents
Message. we expressed a general concurrence in its
suggestions respecting Oregon, though not in the
spirit in which they were uttered In fact the
oommsn,s on the Speeches Of Messrs. Adams and
Giddings which prominently brought forward
by The Courier to prove our change o! front, were
wrhren and published during that very absence of
the responsible Editor Albany, wilhouthe posi-
bity Of consultation with or suggestion from hin.

Assistant In charge 10 change The attitude OF The
paper on 20 imporran, subiec: without bint from
the Editor to do so--Bui we not wasting words
on 90 empty a calumnyf


The Express proceeds to assert that the resolu-
tions 10 regard to Oregon decided by rnsjority
Of the Wbig Members OF our Legislature, is such
that


" some sound independent Wings there, have renon-
strssd against them uarlike-as intended to iunarnc
the wnrike feeling of counryas endangerins our
peaoesole relations with England and committing us

The.e sound, Independent Wings if Members
of the Legislature. must have very peculiar notions

have been Instrumental In thus giving uterance 10
their csnsures through the columns OF the Express.
And II not Members wha, can they accurately know
of the matter Let as understand before we con-
denim If the Wing Members have really done any
wrong, let US all have fair start in denouncing
them This prejudgment is unfair and ungenerous


The Express proceeds 10 say In reference to
our closing paragraph OF yesterday;

and increasing class Of our voters, many of whom
had ever before been Whiga We know that many
of those who followed ,he Courier and Express into
this Loco Foco trap are now as thoroughly con-
vinced that this weak and silly as any
body nt Albany can be.


And now as TO the West and Abolition Every
Intelligent politician mus; have realized long before
the last Presidential Election that the dangers the
Whig cause in our State were 10 be encountered in
the North and West. The frontier Counties were
flled with Adopted Citizens. mainly Catholics who
