MR.. GREENHoW'S VOLUME.

The last "New York Evening Post" anticipates
us in the notice which we meant to take of Mr..
Greenhow's book ION Oregon and California"
We lay its notice this evening before our readers,
and will follow it up tomorrow with one of our
own. We recommend the work to every one who
wishes to understand the subject.
"TnE GEOGRAPHY AND HISTORY OF OREGON:
Little & Brown, Boston.
"Mr. Greenhow's book is now published in this
country in good style of typography, and Illus
trated by an authentic map. Anybody who wishes
to understand the whole question in dispute between
Great Britain and the United States, in respect to
the territory of Oregon, will find the whole contro-
versy in this volume The author has put it, how
ever, not in the form of controversy, but of vera-
BILE history. He begins with an account of the ear
iest Spanish voyagers, taken from original sources
and traces with great minuteness and accuracy the
extent of information which they obtained in regard
to the northwestern coast. He investigates the
ture of the pretended English discoveries under
Drake, Meares, Vancouver, gives an extract from
Capt Gray's log of Boston, who was the first to
the Columbia river and finally explains at large all
the conventions and treaties that have been made
by the civilized nations Of Europe, touching the oc
cupancy of Oregon. In the appendix are the ORR
ginal documents on which the historian POUNDS his
narrative. 1t is impossible to read these without
deriving a very clear and decided conviction that
the American title to the territory is what Mr.. Polk
pronounced t-"clcsr and unquestionabe." Mr.
Greenhow, to make his volume more perfect, in the
second edition has answered the criticisms made up
on it by the British writer's, and susteins his ORR
gnal positions by new matter of great interest. He
is entitled to great credit for his unwearying re-
searches among the documents bearing upon this
important controversy. There is in his book, n
geographical account of Oregon, which will be
found Of great utility by emigrants and others who
wish to know something of the nature of the soil
and climate"

is THE COUNTRY RUINED

Not a democratic victory has been won buff we
are TO believe the federal or wing cTy-the country
has been ruined by it. During the late Presidential
contest il was boldly and basely asserted by the fed
eral wing orators and the press IN their Interests,
that should Mr.. Polk be elected, the country would
certainly be ruined. The wages Of labor would be

ers would only yet meat about once or twice week
NJ anu factures, commerce, agriculture, were oil T.,
be ruined. In particular was the manu- featuring bu
siness TO be brought to dssd-stand still.
Ii may be well, perhaps, To look into this matter
little and If there prospect Of the entire "a
nation Of the country and Manufacturer IN partcu
lar, by the election Of Young Hickory" We sup
pose that the LawIences, great capitalists Of Boston
know as much about the manufacturing business and
are deeply engaged 10 II as any other 10 New

IN consequence Of the election Of Mr.. Polk to the
Presidency We have seen nothing that Indicate,
such course on the contrary, we have the strong

So il seems the country is not ruined, and even

that wealth seeks investment, and We trust tina
the labor which Is TO be employed in these
new manufacturing establishments and in all the Old
ones, will be well paId-that the men who produce
the wealth will get reasonable share OF it in com
pensation for their labor. Al the present time the
manufacturers are coming money-they are making
immense profits, and while their "hogs grow fat Il
may, perhaps, be well to inquire "whose corn the,
fed upon" Do the farmers know and feel thai
every grist which they carry to mill, and every day
labor is taxed by the present tariff TO increase the
profits Of these manufacturing corporations?

JOURNAL OF PRISON DISCIPLINE.

which we have so frequently called our reader al.

is before US, containing niDely-six octave page,
handsomely printed. 1t contains Ten articles-lhe
hrs brief history of The Penal Legislature Of Pens-
sylvania.
ID. On the influence of separate imprisonment
on the reason Of convicts. This is a memoir read
before the French Academy OF Moral and Porll-
cal Science, at its sitting on the 23d Of March,

9Th. Miscellaneous Notices.
10th. Recent publications on Prison Discipline
and kindred subjects.
The objec, of this publication is to diffuse correct
knowledge, and promote proper views Of Prison dis
ciplne, and especially TO remove the prejudice
which have been created against the system OF sepa
rate confinement, as prsctised in Pennsy lvana and
by so dong, to promote the establishment Of county
or State prisons, in which the wrong doer shall not
be assisted forward in the work of mischief by the
tuition of older knayes with whom he forced inc
constant intercourse in many public prisons. To
this object, especially, il will be seen, several Of
the papers have direct and we think, effective al
fusion.
Another, and most important object of this jour
nal is the melioration of the condition of the insane
"A subject that commends itself to the cons dera-
ton OF every humane person, and which, we doubt
not will owe much to the sbors of the society with
whom originates the Journal, "The PhilaJelpha
Society for Alternating the Misrries of Pubic
Prisons "
We call the attention of our readers to this peri.
odica, which will be published quarterly, at only 81
year; and we venture TO ask for it liberal and
not that publisher may be bene6ted,) though thai
were not amiss,) but that the great object of con
fning criminals ma, be promoted, and that the men

down below the brute, with every feeling and ever,
propensity Of humanity trodden out of him, and thu
light Of hope-hope of a better world-quite
tiDguished.

From the Richmond ENQUIRER
NEW PROPOSITION.

It was supposed, that we should have no more pro-
positions about Texas. General Jackson complain
ed of there being too many already, and it was be-
lieved that the battle would be fought and the ques,
tlon decided upon Mr.. Browns resolutions, which
had passed the popular branch of Congress by %
jority. These resolutions were just in themselves
conciliatory towards Texas, and liberal towards all
portions Of the Union. 1t was ferventy hoped that
they would have been adopted by the Senate, and
thus the whole controversy would have been ad
usted.
But Mr. Benton has thought fit TO throw new
proposition before the Senate, the great object of
which is, to admit Texas as State, so soon as the
terms TO be arranged between Texas and the Com
missioners of the United States should be adopted
either by the Treaty making power, (two thirds OF
the Senate,) or by the legislative power, viz: ma
oriiy of both Houses, and the President We regret
that Col Benton should have seen fit to offer this
proposition at this time. He has unquestion
ably right to make any proposition in the full ex-
ercise OF his legitimate powersbut in this stage Of
the proceedings, upon measure OF such transcen.
dant importance, and any failure is calculated to wrap
the country in the flames of Missouri controversy
the author Of il assumes no little responsibility 1t
to that the proposition of the House should
have first been properly tested, and that the new
scheme is certainly not calculated to promote its
cess--but if it had failed, after fair trial. then It
might have been competent TO Col. Benton to bring
forward his own
As matter Of preference, too, we 60 decidedly
for Browns We hope it will yet be adopted We
approve its terms, and it will sooner and more GER
tainly close up the fountain Of bitter waters which
threatens TO overflow the land. We suspect that
Col. Benton cannot get his bill through the Senate
in its present shape and, il he can, have serious
fears that IT will not meet the support Milton
Browns resolution. .-'..
But We will not believe, unless we see the predc-
lion verified by the fact ITSELF that what the Wash
ington Correspondent of the Baltimore American
writes on the 9th can be true viz Mr.. Benton will
not, II Is certain, vote for the joint resolutions
from the House Of Representatives. and the only
danger of their adoption then passes away. Had
three Wings voted for them, and the entire opposi
ton, they would have been carried Mr.. Benton's
BILL therefore, leaves hope of annexation at pre-
sent" On the contrary, we are informed, upon the
most respectable authority, that he will do nothing
to mar the House measure, for which he will vote 10
his own should not prove acceptable to the bsdy
Of the Democracy So far as we have advised with
them, it is not acceptable to them-certainly not so
acceptable as Browns resolution.
