symptoms have appeared that strong i~eins and -
citemeni would follow in the track Of these ai'rss
IN the west. and that any such would be snnaiea

We have every reason 10 believe. from
certain pregnant statement IN the Coar,sr aad In.
quirer, thar such will be the In the profound
columns of that magnificent journal. circulation.
lsUO, we find some Of the most porsenious state
ments on that question that ever startled eyes
ears for many years past. II appears that Mr. Polk
and Mr. Buchanan are very willing to srtile the ore
gon question, on the terms OF making the 18th par
alel of northern latitude the basis Of an agreement,
with England, but that there is an insui-rable OBJ
stacle IN the way TO this settlement in the op,osi-
ton made TO it by paper called the Ns~ York H,'-
aid, which has damnabe circulation Of nearly
10000. This paper, it appears, is seldom seen BY
our venerable contemporary, except when n meets
HIM, as II does every one his occasional rai,bles
about the country, and with whose statements he
processes to be acquainted, only through the cob
umns of one of the other papers Of the day.


II seems this Nac York Heaid-this sagacious
Journal this extraordinary journal. this abridgemen
of all that is excellent in journalism that not only
ecipses all the papers. but is the oracle Of the bro
kers and shavers of Wall street, sets nations by the
ears, and lcvies at will black mail on whole COM
munities and kingdoms, with as much force as went
forth the DEGREES of julius Caesar, Alexander, or
Napoleon 1t seems that this paper opposes any such
settlement and threatens the President with its high
dlspleasure, in case he does any such thing effect
any treaty of the kind. OF course such declara-
ton from such quarter, particularly when backed
by the aggregate force of the great everlasting
almighty West, will constrain Mr.. Polk from ncau-
tlously giving offence, and convince him that by
plant policy he must conciliate tn. oracle Of ma
lions, In order to prevent the utter breaking up and
naturalization Of the entire negotiations on the ques-
tons Of Oregon and war with England.


We further learn from our venerable benetit-takng
and debt-paying contemporary, that the Herald,
which is going 10 involve this countryn the horrors
of war with England and all the world, is itself
owned and conducted by foreigners, although the
fact is that probably nne-tenths Of the individuals
engaged III the Herald establishment arc natives of
the soil. OF course this gives II another large
amount Of influence, and frghtens John Bull essen
tally for of all things John dsllkes to be licked by
those who know him best


Fromthe information derived from the Courier,
it is now certain there will be no settlement of the
Oregon question; that Mr.. Polk and Mr. Buchanan
dare not divide the territory by line running on the
10Th parallel, because the Ne,c York Herald is op-
posed TO such course consequently there will be
war with England, as hotillas are put
IN readiness and troops in marching order. 1t is
also alleged that the motive of the Herald for thus in
citing nations TO arms, is nothing else than an ex-
tension of fcrcuatton-the sale of between thirty and
forty thousand extras, which, counted at two cents
apece would amount to about eight hundred dol
lars. Now, in order to preserve the peace of the
word-to prevent bloody torrent laving the base
OF the rocky mountains, what could be more be- j
nevoent, wise and humane than for the President
OF Yankeedom and the Queen of England, either
Jointly separately TO advance the sum of eight
hundred dollars to the Herald and allow the nego-
citation TO proceed. Queen Victoria is said to be


liberal; she has here fair opportunity to add to her
fair fame IN becoming highly humane and tender
hearted. If she could only see the Courier and En-
qt,rcr, (Which alas is exceedingly improbable)
she would see her duty, and for the sake Of human
ity propitiate the Herald, by sending over in the
next steamer box of sovereigns to the amount of
500, being her quota Of the amount requisite to
settle the Oregon question, and preserve the peace
ofthe nations.


NATIvIsM IN PHILADELPHIA AND LoNDoN.-The
recent Native Convention in Philadelphia, was rich
in Its developments Of bigory narrownessof intel
lect, and grovelling prejudice. II is not worth while
to occupy time and space in exposing the folly,
and contracted views of the members, with respect
to the naturalization laws One rather curious sub
ect OF assault, however, brought up on this oc.
cason. The government was denounced with great
ferocity for employing the services of Perico, the
sculptor, and paying him large sums of money for
| those admirable works which adorn the CAPITAL OF
the country.


This strange outburs Of Nativism' is not with
out parallel We are presented in London with
precisely similar manifestation of national prejudice
which has Just been exhibited in the theatrical cir
ces there. American acters, Forrest, Miss Cush-
man. Hackeit, and others, have, as is well known,
appeared Of late years in London, and been very
well received Of the play-going people. But Hack
ett's appearance at Covent Garden, on recent occa
sion in compliance with the express desire of the
Queen, has been the signal for the outburst of "na
tive" feeling in London. Her Majesty, il appears
sat out the whole of the play, applauded Hacket
heartily and afterwards, at evening soirke, ex-
pressed TO the lady of tile American Minister, her
most favorable opinion Of that actor. This was too
much for the London players, and they have de-
nounced HacDeu in the most vehement style Ma
dame Vestrls has not stopped with abuse Of Hack
ett, but does not hesitate to dcnounce Queen Veto
T ria herself for ''having dared to applaud id,
infamous Yankee actor"


We believe we may safely put this specimen Of
nafiveism in London on par with the Philadelphia
, exhibition. Nativeism is thus seen to be eyery
where the same combination of prejudice, bigotry,
selhshness, .lmpudence, ignorance and folly, and it
is certainly melancholy find that on both sides of
the Atlantic there are men-who belong to the last
century, and who, instead of going forward to su-
peror civilization, light and intelligence, are retro


grading TO the darkness and bigotries of the past
every day.
