From the Now York Evening Post

The SOUTHERN MAILs.-At present the mails
leave Philadelphia at 9 o'clock in the morning and
do not arrive in this city until half past two o'clock
There is another line--the Camden and Amboy
line-which departs from Philadelphia seven inthe
morning, and which usually arrives here about
twelve o'clock If the mails were carried by this
line, they would reach New York two hours ear
lier.
We have no doubt that the Post Office Depart
ment, on being made aware of this fact and perhaps
it may be already, will cause arrangements to be
made for carrying the mails on the Camden and
Amboy line. The news from the South would then
reach the city and be circulated by the newspapers
before the closing Of the usual hours Of business.
We are informed that the Post Office Department
is fully aware, and has been for long time, of the
fact here stated and that it has made efforts, again
and again, to cause an early morning mail between
Philadelphia and New York, to be conveyed by the
Camden and Amboy line ofrairoad cars and steam
boats--but as yet in vain The extravagant price
demanded by the company has prevented the ar
rangement. They persist in their demand Of ten
thousand dollars year for this service; whereas the
maximum which the act Of Congress allows the
Postmaster General pay for transportation of that
class would not amount to the halfof that sum. The
legal compensation would give high allowance un-
der the circumstances the only necessity for
sending a mail by the Camden and Amboy line
arises from the unsuitable hours at which this COM
pany runs their mail line from Philadelphia, and by
which they sacrifice the mail interests to the
mediation of the city travel.

CITY OF wAsHIN TON
CONGRESSIONAL.

The debate on the resolutions offered by Mr..
Cass was resumed in the Sensis to-day. The gale
res were denssly crowded, and the greatest interest
appeared to be felt in the debate.
Mr. Niles argued at considerable length in favor
of the passage of the resolutions, chiefly on the
ground that the negotiation between the two coun-
tries had reached that point when it was absolutely
necessary that Congress should do it's duty in tn
assertion of the national rights and maintenance of
the national honor. Timely preparation for war,
was, in his opinion the best security for continued
peace. He did not anticipate war. He believed
that Great Britain, on finding that the United States
were not to be buled, would very readily come to
amcable terms.
MIR. Crittenden followed on the opposite side, re-
iterating the views and arguments put forth in Mr..
Mangum's speech yesterday, making however, sew
era attempts to elicit such explanations from the
distinguished senator from Mich gan as might have
a tendency to impair the force of his remarks in
moving the adoption of the resolutions. But in this
Mr.. Crittenden altogether failed the senator from
Michigan repeating his previous declarations
which were certainly lucid and ineligible enough
as to the probability of in case, after the years
notice, Great Britain persisted in the practical asser
ton of her claim to to any portion Of Oregon Ter
ritory.
The debate was continued by Mr.. Webster who
commended at some length that the manner in which
the resolutions had been introduced was calculated
to excite an alarm that might be extremely preudi-
cal to the commercial interests Of the country. In
the resolutions themselves he saw nothing to con-
denim. He was quite willing that preparations for
war should be made, but he insisted that they
should be made quietly. This called out
Mr.. Sewer, who, in Brief but eloquent and for
chile speech, defended the resolutions, and ndig-
nanty secuted the idea that any fear of provoking
England, or Of disturbing business speculations,
should be allowed to operate against the adoption of
such bold and open operations for the security of
the country as the present circumstances demand
cd
Mr. Berrien followed on the opposite side, and
was succeeded by Mr. Allen in defence of the reso-
lutions. Messrs. Clayton, Breesc, and Wood
bridge also took part in the debate; which final
ly closed about haf-past three o'clock, when the
resolutions were put and unanimously adopted
fory-six senators (the full number presently voting
in the affirmative.
Aware of the universal interest felt in the proceed
ings in the Senate, we have given the fullest posi-
BILE report Of the speeches delivered in the progress
of the debate
In the House, the Texas resolutions offered by Mr.
Douglass were carried by vote of 14l to Sc. A
long, and not remarkably interesting or profitable
discussion arose on point of order

PASSAGE OF THE TEXAS RESOLUTIONS.

The great length to which the interesting pro-
ceedings in the Senate run in this evenings paper,
prevent us from expatating upon the passage
of the resolutions through the House of Representa-
tives for approving of the constitution Texas, and
admitting her into the bosom of our republic. We
congratulate our country upon its passage. An
angry, an irritating, and unnecessary debate was
prevented by the previous question, called by Mr..
Mcconnell. 1t was supported by the Houses and
then the resolutions were triumphantly passed by
vote Of l4l to Sc. We rejoice in the success of
the measure, which accelerates the time when the
two senator's and the two representatives of the
young State shall occupy their seats in both branch
es, and participate in the proceedings in which they
are so much interested with the other States.
The resolutions were reported Immediately to the
Senate, and referred to the Judiciary Committee.

THE CHEROKEE MURDERS.

Our correspondent "Boudinot," gives an account
Of additional and revolving murders which have been
perpe,rsted among the Cherokees. These events
have not Of ESCAPED the eye of the govern
ment.
Both the military commander and the Indian
agent have standing instructions to interposo and
prevent or put stop domestic strife in the Indian
country. On the occurrence Of the recent distur-
ban we understand both functonaries have acted
promptly. These instructions were reiterated on
the first intimation reaching here of the present
ifhculties.---aen. Arbucke is authorized (by or
ders recently issucd) to reinforce his command by
State troops if his present force should be likely to
be insufficient to meet the emergency.

SOUTH AMERICAN MATTERS.

Speaking of the story told by the New Orleans
Courier that Commodore Rousseau had instruc-
tons to cooperate with the Brazilian squadron in
forcible opposition to the blockade, the Courier dss
Etats Unis says:
"We have before usa Rio de Janeiro paper of
September 90, which gives the report of discus
sion had in the Chamber of Representatives, on the
affairs Of La Plata. In this discussions the minister
of foreign affairs openly declared that the govern
ment of Brazil had itself invoked the Intervention of
France and found great pleasure in the cooperation
of Great Britain; and that if Brazil took no active
part it was that no pretext might be given for the
reproach that Brazil in soliciting the intervention
had an eye to her own interests.
"The minister even spoke of the necessity resting
on Brazil, the only monarchy of the New World,
to seek, among the old monarchies Of Europe, sup
port against invasions of the republicanism by
which she is surrounded and menaced from all
quarters"

DRoLL DoINGs AND DIVERSIONS.

DR. VALENTINE begs leave to remind the
- public that there are three muscles to draw the
mouth up, and only one TO draw il down; which
signifies that we are to laugh three times much as
we cry. In order to decide on matters and things
properly, it is necessary that the internal organs
should be maintained in healthy state Of action,
and this can only be preserved by occasional relax
alton from business. Some resort to medicine to
restore this healthy tone Of mind; but DIR. Valen-
tine does not hesitate to assert that hearty laugh
is the most effective remedy. II is a remedy pre-
scribed by nature, and may be relied on as COM
plete antidoe to the horrors blue devils, and thou

THE OREGON COUNTRY.
LETTER Ill.
To ihs Editor Of the Union,


SuR: now come to the description Of that portion
of Oregon, lying west of the Cascade mountains,
embracing not only the Willamette country, but the
great valley, II II may 30 be- called, bounded east by
the Cascade mountains, and west by the Pacific,
and including, from north to SOUTH the whole Of our
territory averaging, from east to west l40 to $50
miles OF the north portion of this district we know
little else satisfactorily, than that large sections
heavily numbered, the soil being represented as IN
most places sandy, thin, and impregnated with mag
nesia; whilst there said to be considerable por-
tons along the and near the base of the noun
tans OF the choicest description of high rolling pratt
ries, beautifully clad with fine grass Wild red, and
white clover, various heritage and charming flowers
Yet the general aspect of the country is hy rugged
and rather uninviting in its features.
fought here TO say that the valley of the Cover
litz which river empties into the Columbia some 40
miles from its mouth, is favorably represented by
the cooniss planted there and said to produce
well all the various crops peculiar TO the northern
and middle States; and the fact of the little colony
OF about two hundred being rapidly advancing and
IN fourishing state, is corroborave of this state
ment During the last year, Rev. Alvin f. Walter,
accompanied by two or three other respectable gen
tlemen, and other small exploring parties have pen
eraed into the northern and northeastern district of
this country, exploring the country east and west
OF the Cascade mountains; and all unite in more fa-
vorable representations of the country, both as to
grazing and agricultural purposes Several large
valleys and districts not only well watered tim
bered, and grassed, but present agreeable undu-
lating surface Yet, on the whole, the weight Of
testimony is against the larger portions Of the ter
ritory north of the Columbia, as fit for agricultural
purposes; but pastoral and manufacturing dis
trict, in view Of the midness of the climate, and
Of its excellent water privileges conceive too much
cannot be said in its favor | reserve TO show It's
immense commercial advantages, its harbors, its
importance as mineral district in future num-
ber
The valley of the Columbia, though its soil has
been strengthened by rich aluvia deposites, is ow-
ing to annual foundations in the most unfavorahlc
seasons of the year, unified for agricultural purpo
SEES, excepting at Vancouver and few other places
occasionally met with upon the north and south
side of the river. The Willamette river, emptynig
into the Columbia, "a miles from its mouth, is osu-
mated to be some 300 miles in length, with ship
navigation from its entrance for about 35 miles OF
its valley we shall treat at length in our next
number

We are informed that Captain George w. Tay-
or, of Boston, the inventor of the cui,oater diving
bell and submarine exploring apparatus, will give at
the navy-yard tomorrow, at IL o'clock, prac-
teal illustration of the working and effects of each.
This is MOTTO be considered as mere experiment
it having been tried thoroughly, at different
times and places, with the most absolute success.
The remarkable ingenuity of these inventions,
and the advantages that must result from their use,
well deserve public consideration. We understand
that the President, heads Of departments, members
of both branches of Congress, and scientific gen.
tlemen connected with the government will be
present to see this interesting demonstration.
