The NEGOTIATION. There is great va
rieiy of reports from Washington respect
ting the Northeastern Boundary part Of the
negotiation lately going on. The wOl''
news there is, is manifest disposition on
the part of portion of the so called demo
cratic party to turn this treaty TO political
accouni,--,o quarrel with it so as to profit
from it, by the prejudices two wars have lei!
the land against Great Britain. 1t takes
two thirds of the senate too, the reader VII
remember, to rdhfya Treaty. If there II
party opposition then, of course the treaty
falls dead. 1t is believed, however, that It
the senate will not raIify this part of treaty,
there is provision in it 10 leave tile whole
Northeastern matter to arbitration.

Washington, July 81.
The weather here to-day is oppressively
hot; and if it does not drive Congress to
hastv action, and the President to hear
ty approval of all that Congress may do,
then both are incorrigible. 1t is killing
weather for the working men of Congress,
and to all whose labor is dependant upon
action. With the thermometer between
80 and 100 ,, it is a hard matter to be
pent up within the four walls of cham

UNITED STATES SENATE.
The proceedings of to day have been of
considerable importance in the Senate.
The Bill reviving the Dancing Rabbit
Treaty commission passed the Senate to-
day. 1t has been great bore for a great
while, and so good radiance to it.
The Post Office Bill, an abstract of which
appeared in the Express few days since,
was before the Senate, materially amended
and disposed of by passage. The fsrt
section of the bill was struck out and, there
fore, the rates of postage are not affected
by the bill and will remain as they are.
NAVY BILL.
The Navy Appropriation Bill was taken
up also and disposed of. The amendments
were important. From the first amendment
the Senate receded, and agreed to appro'
pirate S2,335, 900 instead of $4,000, 00O,as
first voted by the Senate. The next o.
mendment, which affected the whole per-
sonel of the Navy, wasinsisted upon by the
Senate.
The amendment in the House in relation
to the Dock at Brooklyn,appropiating 8 co.
900 to Dry Dock, or Floating Dock, was
non concurred in. The appropriation is
saved but the proviso struck out.
Excepting the immaterial amendment in
creasing the appropriation three thousand
dollars for the suppression of The African
slave trade, there was disagreement, and a
committee of conference is appointed 10 con.
fer with the house.
The Navy Bill between one and two o.
cleck gave way TO the Revenue Bill. Mr.

speech in reply to Mr.. Woodbury..

even an attempt 10 cOnCllale Inc freSluent
1t has been thrown in our faces as matter
of scorn that we went TO the President to
ascertain whether there was not some plan
of finance on which he and the Wings could
agree, or, if you please, to ascertain what
measures the President would sanction -
But, sir. however humiliating may have
been our position, yet | do aver that what
ever did was done in good faith not to
head the President, but to find some plan
that would meet the cordial appreciation of
both parties, and at the same time be ben
ehcIal 10 the country.
After the first veto, with such purpose, an
honorable member from Pennsylvania Mr.
sergeant and myself had an interview with
the President, at the earnest solicitation of
one then and now high in Office. Ofwhat
took place at that interview shall saw no
thing here now, nor at any time without
the consent of Mr.. S. and the President
Suffice it 10 say, as is already known from
other sources, that all exertions failed.
/ On the coming in of the second veto no
hope of reconciliation remained; was then
satisfied that the President had withdrawn
himself from the Wing party. And sin.
cerely regret to say that | have seen MOTH
ing since to prove that our then belief of
the fact was incorrect. And can produce
proof of the sincerity of this declaration -
On the contrary, early in the session it was
announced in the Executive organ 1.-THE
Madisonian) that the President never was a
Wing. And from that day to this that
organ has been unceasing in IFS abuse Of the
Wing party here.
