The Intelligence received by the Hlbe..lia pre-
sen,s no feature OF importance save the pacific as
pee; of the Oregon question after information had
been received of the passage Of the Notice by Con-
eress. From the tone OF the press and from incl
dental illusions 10 the subject in Parliament by Sir
Robert Peel and Lord John Russell, 1t is manifest
,ha, the desire for peaceable settlement oil the
questions AT issue has not in the least abated. The
form of the Notice is viewed conciliatory and the
measure itself is regarded as opening the way for
honorable negotiation between the TWO Govern
men,s. The Times of May 18th says that Mr.
Pakenhan tciH is at once emDo~ered TO BRING the
controrersyto a prompt and fnol issue lostruc'
lions to this effect will doubtless be given ms soon
as the Notice is officially received by the British
Government. The Times of May 18th later the
arrival out of the Caledonial says:

yress may address than with that in which
The PRESIDENT may address the British Government and
