We expect that the Senate tomorrow, will re-
turn the protocol of Mr. Pakenham to the Prcs-
| dent, under advi sement-the faces of the forty
nine men clearly indicated it this afternoon
4 They came down in squads, all smiling. They
did look so pleased, it would have done you good,
4 sweet reader to have seen them Now we saw
| we do say-we have sad-and must be permitted
to say, that we like the forty-nines. Forty
nine, Mr.. President, for,y-nine," says old Bull
lion. Forty-nine, Mr. President, forty-nine, say
we.
Old Buck and Pack,
And will soon together dine,
And drink toast
Upon their roast,
To number forty-ninc.
That's the way to tell it-that's the way TO do it,
Come out here, John G. Calhoun. Give us your
hand. You are the man. All honor to you and
South Carolina. You Christian, sir. You are
the man of the age. You did look decidedly in a
good humor this afternoon. 1t is a great point
now, amt it Why, sir, we are inclined to be-
lieve that your STAR long in the horizon, is Just
coming to the meridian. But we are running off
the track. How stands the protocol of Mr. Pa
kenham
/. The line Of forty.nne.
2. The whole of vancouver's Island.
B. The Straits of Fuca a neutral passage.
T. The free navigation Of the Columbia indefinitely.
s. The rights of the Hudson's Bay Company to their
property south offorty-nine
And what is the opinion Of the President He
says in his lnessage-what does he say Here
are his words -
THE proposition thus offered and rejected
offer ohe parallel Of forty.nne degrees Of north ati
tude which had been made by two preceding admins
but without ha to surrender 70 Great
lumba river The right Of any foreign power to the free
navigation Of any Of rivers through the heart of
also embraced provision to make free to Great Britain
any port ports on the of Quadra and vancouvers
ton coming under discussion for the first time this pro-
position would not have been made.
The river is the difficulty. 1t all hangs upon the
river. There will be some modification of the
terms regarding the river, if the above are the ar
tices of Mr.. Pakenham's protocol. Gentlemen,
we are to have treaty on the basis OF forty-nine.
And that's enough. The whole face ofthe fifty
four forties is a bakers doZen-some twelve, and
perhaps loaf over-the hottest loaf is Hannegan
some of the others are nearly stale. But old Bul-
lion, of the forty-nines, is twist loaf and CAL
houn square loaf-square up to forty-nine Old
Bullion has twisted the subject a baker twists
loaf of bread, and we can't undo it without break
ing it.
But here we come to another great point Mr.
flanagan moves to adjourn on the 3Oth Of July,
Tariff or Tarif"-
"And thereby hangs talc'
II is the tale Of tuba tub without bottom.
Mr.. flanagan wishes the question of the Oregon
partition and adjudicature to go over-to lie over
to 20 forth from Congress to the people. And he
expects that 81 40 would be thus resusctated, and
that Cass will come upper-most on the great
ground swell OF popular opinion. That is the
only chance. And It may be so, but we doubt
now whether after tire obliteration of the line by
Old Bullion, it cond be revived again, even on
the stump. II could not be done. The last plank
of the i" whole or none" is gone and the banner
of the stars, our banner, our proud and beautiful
banner-the star spangled banner, and the cross
of St. George and the Dragon, are about being
crossed over the line. of ioriy-nin Felow-citi-
zens, it is for the good of us all. We shall con-
quer more by peace than by war. Our system is
a system of conquest by peace. War stops us,
except with the Mexicans, just now. One at
a time for the present, unless it be necessary TO
fight all together and Buck and Pack are of the
opinion that it is not necessary. Free trade, gen.
temen--free trade 1t is coming along. That
great commercial millennium is about opening

Frcetraders Of the Senate, keep an eye TO the
