time. in New York or elsewhere some SUNDAY
will be designated for stump speeches 10 Inc pun
nil against the wicked determination OF The an,
miuislration TO deprive the laborer oil his prsaa
soonerthan toencounter war ior Oreson-which "
now the burdenofthe FederalsoDSin W ashinS'on.
IF there were none among us who recoliecl now
taiihfnlly the gowned orators of The Wing party
Ia bored 10 damn Thomas Jefferson, and 10 weak
on the devotion OF The American people 10 The
cause Of their country in 1872, and il books did
NOT contain the history Of those times, something
might I've mhde by them ont Of pulpit denuneia-
lion But, fortunately Tor the country, The re-
membrance Of other days is too bright in The pub
lie mind. The only result which can grow out
of The movement (and no one is more deeply
panied than myself al its contemplation) is The
injury TO evenluate 10 The cause which these poli-
tica ministers affect TO have most at heart-that
of pure and undefled Christianity.
l have seen extracts from the London Times
and Journal des Debats, not as YET repnblished in
this country, which 60 TO show that France, or
rather the powers Of Europe, are DESTROYS OF MAX
ing French Prince King OF Mexico, no,wilh-
standing the denial Of all such intention By the
French Minister which has been spread before
the American public. The reasons alleged by
these, The two leading journals Of Europe, for the
consideration OF The project, is that the respectable
and better informed classes in Mexico long Tor
royal institutions again, with foreign Prince as
their head and front Perhaps | am deceived,
but il appears 10 me, that those two newspapers,
of all others, would not breach an idea SO likely
10 irrlae the United States in SO critical juno
ture, unless by way OF an excuse beforehand for
something OF the Sort contemplated al least if not
determined on.
In the Senate, to-day, after Mr.. Dickinson con-
cluded his speech, Mr.. Dayton moved the post
ponement OF the further consideration CT The
Oregon question for fortnight, which gave rise
TO short and unimporant conversational debate
The question on this proposition Will be taken 10
morrow. MIR. Colqui of Ga. also moved an
amendment 10 the notice resolutions, requiring
that the Executive should give The notice at The
termination of the present session OF Congress H.
in his Judgment, il was not prudent 10 delay II
longer; and thai at the same time he should IN
tmae TO England the desire oil this Government
TO settle the question by compromise and nesolia-
lion. OflhiS more anon.
The Senate then, went into Executive session,
and am happy 10 write you, confirmed The no.
minaiion OF Romuus NJ. Saunders as minister
10 Spain. A better selection or one which WI
give more general satisfaction throughout inc
country, could not have been made. ,
In the House the day session was pIlnciPaiiy
devoted TO The consideration OF The anti-los-ro-
time since by Mr. Houston OF Alabama, con
corning which, | have written 10 you at length.
Ii was eventually passed BY a majority oil TWEEN
". With The exception OF lie vote for giving
the Notice, this lille unobrusve change IN me
rules is, by long odds, The most important acl Of
tie session, as il veoes the success OF he iiick oi
Lovelailing appropriations Tor Internal improve
nenis in all sections Of the country INTO one OH,
SO as to force those who wish for The success OF
any one item OF appropriation 10 swallow me
whole or give up thai, 10 affect The people Of lher
own State or Congressional District. hereanel
one-liih of The members present can order the
yea, and nays on each item OF appropriation,
separately. Thus a member from Louisiana or
Maine will not be forced 10 vote Tor an improve
menl in Wisconsin which his conscience leii'
him is unconstitutional, in order TO secure me
passage of appropriation for improvement pu'-
poses in his own State. MhCoN.
