According TO all accounts from Washington. the
annexation question in some shape will be decided
by The Senate in the affirmative in few days
The newspapers and correspondents OF both par
ties concur ia expressing the opinion of It's certain
passage. We have our doubts, however, as to the
accuracy OF these predictions, and believe rather
that some OF the statements are made by the enc
mics OF the measure, with view OF preventing
such result taking place. Until these predictions
become facts, we shall consider il as doubtful
question at best.


Yet whether il pass this week or next week.
this year ornext year-it seems to be a matter OF
mere time, for pass it certainly will, in some shape
in Congress, either now hereafter. If it should
pass in few days, that result would bring up
train of consequences in connection with our for
eign relations, that would probably produce new
and original crisis in the affairs Of Europe of Ame-
rica, and, perhaps, of the whole civilized world.
The same popular feelings, which, in this country,
will have carried the annexation OF Texas, will
also occupy Oregon, and go ahead, in all general
movements, SO far as this continent is concerned
This policy will bring us into immediate collision
with the policy of England, and the mutterngs
from that quarter, which for the last two months
have been SO audible, will become louder and
stronger, until collision, not only of opinion, but
of physical force, must take place, that will be the
commencement of new era in the progress OF
the world.


We are on the Threshold Of new and important
movements among civilized nations, which, at all
events, may embrace wide interests before it's re-
suits settle down. Every thing will depend on the
action of the present Senate, for that is the enter
ing wedge to all that may folow-the first step in
a new series OF mighty events.


For development of our views on this matter
we must wait until the action of Congress is fully
ascertaned.
