From the Baltimore Republican and Argus
"TAIusrs 90 Ma PoIK.---Tke vote upon the Ore
goa resolutions makes think Of the polls Of Old
berks la time OF elsesion. Never before do we re-
member 10 have known fresidensto have carried
his point in the popular branch with such an over
wheimlnK vote Ia must be remembered that the
giving notice s an isolated question. Some proni-
nent democrats have been opposed TO thai measure
who arr, nevertheless, strong orgon men. They
oppose the administration on that point, but they
have been borne down, 30 far as the vote in the
popular branch IL concerned. The President has
carried his point by most triumphant mojoniy,
and u shows the wisdom with which all his plans
are projected He understands the people well, and
has gained his knowledge Of them by contact He
knows what they want, and his administration will
mark new era in our history. This vote IA In
deed splendid success-we moan personal success
on the part Of Mr.. Polk. Let IL be remembered,
that notice or no notice, net made question In
the Baltimore resolutions Of 1874 The question
was, that our ule 10 the Oregon Is clear and UNI
questionable" IL is true that this nouee question
springs naturally out OF that resolution but sill IL
was not passed upon directly at that convention.
The "ttle" TO the Oregon ~ss the principle matter,
and upon that the voice Of the democracy spoke
through its convention. This matter Of notice Is an
incidental msans 10 the principal thing and the democ
raey Of the country should be proud that they have
selected man who has the segaeiiy TO take such
course, and that the recommendation had such in
nait strength as to carry such a majority. Great
weight vii hereafter be given to the suggestions OF
Mr.. Polk. The nation ahd the world viii see that
he can command strength enough TO throw half OF
Il away and still uiumphi that Imbeeility, yaellla
lstratiOn; and that what he says he will do, he can
do. No doubt that the opposition once thought
that they could embarrass the young and untried
democratic President. What think you now. gem
temen' You had better take care he has not emily
earned nearly all his own party, but half Of yours
has deserted 10 his banner. The next move he
makes may take away the remainder, and leave
none behind but some dozen leaders. What is the
moral implied in this VOTE, and what does II enjoin
upon usl Clearly, py clearly 10 place the utmost
fdsnes IN the Prssdsn, IN his management Of The One
gon question. For a guarantee for the future, We
u'usi look 10 he paa. He has met the sense OF the
country fully in the matter Of notice. that We are
bound TO imply that he will do IL completely in
his future course. We conhde in Mr.. Polk more
than we ever did. We conhde IN his igisdom and in
his Strength. We have something on which to base
this confidence, namely, the triumphant vote with
which his measure was carried"
We could multiply our extracts to a much greater
extent. But we have given enough to show the
National ln,elgeneer, that there more than two
papers which agree with the Unlon," and that
there are some locofocos )" at least, who approve
the course Of the administration. Why is the wing
press constantly misleading foreign nations about
the people OF this country They deceive England.
Thsy misrepresent the American sentiment All
their efforts tend 10 etter their country and her
administration in its intercourse with foreign pow
srs. Some Of the wings, indeed, take more
manly ground-they say, "Cany out the no
lce II is not war, nor does il necessarily
lead to IT, And then hold the administration
liable for its measures" But the whig press
in general 1--WE are happy to admit there are some
few exeeptions) resist the measures Of the Execu-
tive-denounce its course without moderaton--take
the British side OF the question-and mislead England
by bold declarations that the people opposed to
the policy Of their own government. II there
should be war; great part Of the responsibility will
lie at their door.
