WASHINGTON, Thursday. s P. NJ. June ls, 40.
The Senate went into Executive SEASON at an
early hour today. and its flag still floats over the
Capitol whence we infer that The Oregon Treaty is
TO be ratified before il will consent 10 adjourn
Should this anticipation prove correct you will have
announced the ratification before this reaches you,
thanks TO the Lightning Mail
The Tariff has been the topic in the House. so the
Speeches were mainly made on the Mexican War;
and of course when the War bills come up Hon.
Members will discuss mainly the Tariff 1t appears
to be as broad it is long yeti think the old fash
toned mode of discussing the bill nominally before
the House is on some accounts preferable.
1 have received information today which very
strongly indicates that the Tariff II Is will not be
modified at this Session. And yet, after the CON-
ple,e back-out of the Administration from so 40,
and the evident determination Of the leaders 10 pass
such ub-Treasory bill as shall amount as nearly
as possible 10 nothing il is greatly important to their
party interest that its Supporters should attempt 10
do something with the Tariff. unless they mean 10
confess the election Of Polk an entire s~indle on
every point but Texas II they could only rear
range the provisions of the present Tariff 80 as to
| make show OF altering ii without real cnange'
their necessity would exactly be met Bot my pre-
sent impression is that Hungerford's amendmen,
will fall, aud that McKays bill will then perish by
the hands OF Northern LocoFocos. But appear
ances may change prove deceitful.
Speaking Of $40 4V. an anecdote is current In
political circles here which is not so well told IN
The newspaper version, and which can only be ap
preciated by those who know the ardent aud In
,repid subject OF it AS the unwruen story goes,
Senator H. W no is among the most resolute and
honest of the $40 4os hearing ugly rumnrs tba, Mr.
Polk was cavipg in on the Oregon Queslon, re-
solved to go up and tell him plainly that he must
stand straight % the line of $40 40 or ne would
be put where the hand of resurrection could never
reach him So resolved he walked up to and into the
Palace, and deemng all formali,es needless strobe
straight 10 the Presidents private room. AS he
stepped Familiarity in. what was his amazement TO
see there the President in close consultation with
! Messrs Calhoun, D. II. Lewis, Haywood OF n. c.
aud two or three Members of the Cabinet. The 54'

found voice to excaim, The Country's sold, by

receive any he whirled on his heel and was OF 10

House since. II. u
