FURTHER INTELLIGENCE-IMPORTANT.

After the foregoing was in type, we received, by the
packet-ship Henry Clay, which arrived here last night,
advices from New York to the 6th instant.
The intelligence from Washington is important. In
the House of Representatives, on the 2nd instant. the
celebrated John Quincy Adams expressed the following
opinions and declarations, which we copy, with all the
extra flourishes, from the New York Herald:—

" Ist. That the conventions of joint occupancy of Oregon'
of 1818 and 1827, were not for a joint occupation of the soul
but for a joint right or privilege to both parties to trade an
navigation in the whole of the Oregon territory; and that no
right to an inch of the soil had been conceded by either party'
through these conventions.
"2d. From his view of the paramount obligation to the faith-
ful observance of treaties, all measures, such as stockade forts/
mounted riflemen, sappers and miners, were out of place; bit
the first step should be the giving the twelve months' notice,
which should have been passed on the first day of the session,
and for which he was willing to vote to-day or to-morrow.
" [Here Mr. Wentworth rose and moved a suspension of the
rules, with a view of introducing such resolution, but was de-
clared out of order.]
3d. That after the expiration of the twelve months' notice,
we should proceed to occupy the whole of the Oregon territory
up to 54 40.
.[Great cheering in the house and in the galleries,
the Speaker joining in with his hammer, ostensibly to bring
the house to order, but, from the rapidity of his rap-rap-raps,
involuntarily joining in the applause.]
" 4th. He did not believe that war would follow as an inet
table consequence of the twelve months' notice. We could,
Frederick the Great did in Silesia, occupy the whole territoll,
and negotiate afterwards. He hoped in God, as it had b 0
ee
declared there would be but one party in the country in the
event of a war, if such a result were to follow, that such would
be the case; and if so, they should not only maintain the whole
of Oregon, but expel the authorities of Great Britain from the
Canadas. [Renewed applause all round the house, and esPe"
cially in sleepy hollow, and in the galleries.]"

On the 3rd several members of the house spoke strongly►
and appeared td vie with each other who could make the
greatest display of unmeaning menaces against Great
Britain.

" Mr. Ingersoll was for peace ; but if war comes, th,n n°
peace while an inch of English territory remains on the
continent."

Mr. Baker, of Illinois, was in favour of all of Oregon,
every sand and shell that glittered on her shore. He wes
the only Whig representative of 50,000 men in the west.
These men, poor as they are, would fieht for Oregon.
Whether duty called them to Quebec or New Orleans er,.
the lakes, there would this western blood be poured 00
in defence.of the nation and her rights."
Several other members having spoken, the house al-
jnurned, and the 3rd being Saturday, we have no further
debate.
The Herald acknowledges that Mr. Adams said "8
little too much, and by crossing into Canada disclosed
the secret of his otherwise anomalous attitude upon the
Oregon question." Our contemporary, in another piitc°
says, that, " the largest portion of the Whig party, or et,
least a large portion intend to unite with the war an
western democrats, in support of the strongest measures
relative to the Oregon question, and then adds in er
parently the coolest manner possible, " we are not sure'
therefore, but it is the best policy for Congress to adopt
the plan recommended by Mr. Adams—to give notice et
once, and prepare future measures, without any regard leg
the measures of Great Britain or any other power.
such measures should produce a conflict between the tern
countries, the onus will be thrown on the shoulders of
Great Britain ; and if the conflict should take place on the
Oregon question, the battle will be fought on the banks
of the St. Lawrence, and not on the shores of the Cobol'
hia. The United States, at the present moment, occupy
a proud and eminent position among the nations of the
earth, and the best policy to adopt in securing this PCs):
tion, is to take the strongest measures consistent with tic
faith of treaties and the law of nations."
Mr. Pakenham, it is said, is greatly alarmed lest h,s
efforts to compromise the difficulties between the Amery
can government and ours should not succeed. He 1135
made overtures to Mr. Buchanan, who was waiting for
instructions from the British government ; and as ere
know from the speech of Sir Robert Peel on Friday niglp
that those instructions comprised a renewed offer of cony,
promise, we may yet expect a peaceable termination to a"
this warlike bluster. The most savage of the American
journals is obliged to confess that their administration
is anxious for a compromise, but outwardly in favour 0'
war."
Great excitement existed as to whether Mr. Allen
resolution to dissolve the joint occupation between P;rl.l'
land and the States, of the Oregon territory would pest
It is stated confidently that Mr. Pakenham has written
to his government to apprise it that the twelve months
notice will not be given; that is, that Mr. Allen's rese'
lution will be defeated by the Senate.
Considerable anxiety was felt to learn what effect the
President's message had produced on the British ouhltc:
and a much more warlike result was anticipated than the"
which they will find to be the case.
The weather in the States was very similar to what sce
are experiencing here—mild and spring like.
From Canada the intelligence is not important. There
is the greatest activity on the frontier in military P,fte;
parations, and a number of military engineers are saio:r
have gone out by the last steamer. It is said that ,
George Clark has been offered the Governor-Generalship
of Canada. -
President Polk is said to have despatched Dr. White ag
a special messenger to Oregon, and the New Orleao,
Picayune states that the Mexican government ha seet ;
minister to Washington with instructions to settle ort
boundary line between Mexico and Texas, and such
one as will give satisfaction. :„bt,

The value of the aggregate exports from New York g 4
the year 1845, was nearly two millions of dollars les:E. ter
in 1844. This falking off was caused by the rethiceclos
portation of specie in 1845, compared with 1811. 00
value of merchandise exported in 1845 was greater
in 1811:
