CONGRESSIONAL.
From he Washington Union ]
FRIDAY, January 2, ls4
The Senate was not in session to-day.

SNhuh1 AOEOs
The Senate was not in session to-day.
In the House some general business was tran.
sacted, in the course Of which some items will
be found of more than ordinary interest. A.
mOngst Others, il will be seen that the considera-
tien Of the bill of Mr.. Douglass, to protect the
rights OF AmeFicen settlers in the territory of Or
egoh, is postponed for one week. The original
order OF the House was, that it should be taken
up on Tuesday nert; but there had been much
misapprehension on this point, many members
being under the impression that the second Tues.
day of the month had been the day fixed for the
discussion. To obviate this difficulty, Mr. Doug
lass assented to the postpOnement, and the House
ordered it.
AT later period of the day, most interest
ing discussion took place on the same all-import-
ant topic, coming incidentally before the House
on bill introduced by Mr.. Haralson, the chair
man of the committee on Military Affairs, pro.
viding, amongst other things, for the organization
of two regiments of rfemen. The views express
ed 10y Mr.. Holmes, on the one side, that TO give
the notice to the British government would pro.
duce war, and those expressed on the other, by
Mr.. Adams, in favoro giving that notice without
the delay of another hour, If possible, will arres
the attention of our readeas. The most indiher
ent observer could not fail to be struck with the
strong manifestations of sympathy which Mr. Ad
ans carried with him both on the floor and in the
galleries, and which, at times, all the energies o
the Speaker was unable to repress. The sub
ect is still before the House.

Democratic state Convention.

Monday evenings western mail brought us
+ho proceedings in full of the Democratic State
Convention, which assembled in Columbus on
the Sth inst. We have not room this week for
Ahe proceedings at length, and rather than divide
thems we prefer delering their publication until
Aext week, and then present them in ertenso, in
.one paper
SAMUEL MEDARY, Esq, was President of the
Convention, assisted by twenty-one Vice Presi
dents, There we're eight Secretaries.
DAVID TOD, the People's faUorite, was no
minated for Governor by acclamaton! There
were no other candidates before the Convention
The utmost harmony and uuanmty of sentiment
seems to have existed Mr.. Tod addressed IA
letter TO the President of the Convention, in
which he clearly and explicitly set forth his sen.
tlmenis on the great questions of state and ma
tlonal character, which now agitate the public
mind. He goes in for the whole Of Oregon
without reserve or compromise himself
in favor of modification Of the present Tariff,
as recommended by the President in his messaoe e.
is an advocate of "a Constitutional Treasury
he believes that every system of banking that
can be devised, must be based upon UNEQUAL
privileges, and recommends State. Convention
TO amend the Constitution, so as to prohibit the
granting of all charters and exclusive privileges
and to effect other reforms.
The resolutions of the convention are pointed
terse, and laconic, covering the same ground az
Mr.. Tod's letter.

The Oregon CorresDondeuce.

We publish to-day a! length the mastery and
unanswerable argument of the Hon. JAMES BU.
cHANAN, Secretary Of State, in maintenance Of
the title Of the United States TO the whole of Or.
egon. The entire correspondence on this sub.
ject is very lengthy, and would occupy more
space than we can spare at this time. The let
ter of Mr., Buchanan which we publish, closes
the correspondcnce---t is a review of the whole
case, the summing up argument. No person,un
less he secs through British spectacles, and is
Oiassed and controlled by British prejudices, can
read Mr.. Buchauan's letter without being con,
vnced that our title to Oregon is 'Fclear and un.
questonabIe,n that it is an unbroken title, ex-
tending from AZ deg. to Sd deg 40. There is
no break in our tile at the 49th degree. We GO
for the whole of Oregon or none; and our govern.
ment, after all that has passed, cannot honorably
consent to a division of that country. The mouth
of the Bstish lion must be stopped!

SATURDAY. Januarv 2

DATUKDAf, JHHUdTy 3,
In the House the debate on The Oregon ques
ton, incidentally arising yesterday was resumed.
The form of the question is now SO far modified,
as to con6ne it exclusively to the question of re-
ference, the additional motion for special order
having been withdrawn by Mr. Harrison. The
indications in favor Of an immediate notice to
Great Britain, seem to gather strength as The de-
bate proceeds, most of the speakers to-day having
expressed themselves in favor of that step, at the
head of whom was the chairman of the commit.
tee on Fore ign Affairs, (Mr. c. ]. Ingersol) A
remark by that gentleman seems to Justify the
inference, that bill providing for such notice
will be reported before the lapse of many days
The debate is thrown over until Monday, the
floor being IN possession of Mr.. Mcdowell.

The Oregon Question.

The debate on the Oregon question was con-
tinued to-day in the House of Representatives
Several members took the floor, but no question
was taken. We were not fortunate enough to
hear the first part of the debate today but as far
as we could gather from the lips of Mr.. Winthrop,
of Massachusetts, we are entirely satisfied that
Mr.. King of New York was mistaken in one of
his statements. The offer Of the compromise.
made by the present administration, was present
ed to the British penipotentiary in the most per-
feet good faith. 1t was made under the influence
of the strong considerations which the President
of the United States frankly explains IN his mes.
sage 1t was made under the expectation that
it might possibly be accepted. We are prompted
to make this statement by no other authority
than that of the facts with which we we're posi-
| lively acquainted at the time. They cannot de
cevG us.
We also regret the remarks made upon Mr.
Calhoun. Differing as we may do, in one res
pect, from this distinguished an,upon thus oues
ton, we cannot subscribe to the suppositions OF
suspicions of Mr.. King. We have not the mos
distant idea that Mr.. Calhoun or any of hi.
friends made any pledge, such as VIC understand
to be referred to by the member from New York
We regret such hasy declarations, because the,
are calculated we fear, TO lead to retort to retail
iation, to unnecessary chickering's, and to mische
Vous feuds in the republican party. We mos
respectfully say, that such remarks can only de
mischief come from whatever quarter they NAV
and to whatever quarter they may be directed
