Mr.. PoIk,s BIunders.

A Washington correspondent of the
Pittsburgh Gazette, thus refers to the
course the Administration has been pur-
suing in regard to the Oregon Question:
The government has run itself into a
morass, upon this Oregon question. where
it cannot advance, retreat nor stand still
but with disgrace. 1t has managed the
whole affair In an unstatesmanlike, iRju-
dicious manner. Mr.. Polk. in the first
place, echoing the Baltimore Convention,
declared our title 10 the WHOLE "clear and
questionable while that very question
was the subject of negotiation. What
next? Why, notwithstanding our 'clear
UNREASONABLE" title to the whole terri
tory, he offers to give up nearly one-half!
Statesmsnlike, truly The offer being
rejected (foolishly, as / think on the
ground that it was not as good an one as
had been twice made before, Mr.. Polk
withdraws 1t in pet, and reiterates sour
title 10 the WHOLE is clear and unques-
tionable.' The British government next
offer to submit an equitable division of
the territory to arbitration; this is very
properly rejected, on the ground that its
acceptance would be an admission that
the British title TO the whole was as good
as ours;but nothing is said about rejecting
arbitration altogether, and no proposition
is made on our part. The British min
ister then offers to submit the question
OF title to arbitration, not to a crowned
head, but to citizens of both countries,
or 10 board of distinguished jurists Or
civilians. This surely was fair, frank,
and unexceplionadle offer; but it was re-
iected, and the Britt sh minister was then
virtually told that he need not make any
more offers OF arbitration, because none
would be accepted however unexception-
able they might be. And here the nego-
tiation rests for the present. Our govern
ment knows that the British will never
give up that portion of the territory north
of the 49', yet they claim it, and at the
same time declare most positively that
there will be no war, and show the sim
certy of their belief that there will be
none, by utterly neglecting to make the
least preparation for war, or to put the
country in state of defence

IN ;ts final result. We feel as indif-
ferent as any one can in the whole mat
ter. 1t is amongst the Locofocos entire
ly-those who have been held up as the
Simon Pures OF the party. And, how
ever criminal they are. we feel that JUS
tice only, should be meted out to those
who are innocent, and who only are pla-
ced in situation to be injured by the
transaction.
From all evidence elected it is clear
that the Lehigh County Bank, has had no
agency in the matter whatever. Nor has
its principal stockholder, Moses 7 Beach.
The course of Mr.. MeCook, appears to
have been voluntary one. and his acts
governed by his own knowledge of Lo-
cofoco Legislators. He was at Washing
! ton CITY, where he found much anxiety
expressed on the part Of his political
friends for sustaining the Bank, and feel
ing deep interest himself, he came TO
Harrisburg, of his own accord, to oper-
ate in favor of it, by ssdespelling the pref
udice that mas pursued 1t from the COM
mencemcnt of its operations. In this
way ne became inveigled by Piollet, La
porte and Burrell, and the whole demer-
its of the transaction, on that side of the
question must tall upon HIM--the Bank
stands unscathed and unaccused.
1t would be extraordinary indeed, if a
Bank were to send man here to buy its
elf through the Legislature, without put
ting the means into his hands, unless it
thought the members Of the Legislature
could be purchased for about the price of
calves in the market. If McCook had o.
riginally had any such intention, it is clear
that he would have been prepared for it,
and not obliged to run around amongst his
friends, to raise the paltry sum Of 800,
and that too by borrowing their pocket
pieces! This fact is sufficient to clear
the Bank, or Mr.. NJ. Y. Beach, who
was in New York at the time, of any
knowledge or participation in the affair.
Since the bribery case turned up we
have examined the Report of the Auditor
General relative to the Banks Of the Com
monwealth, and find that it stands as
sound and on as firm basis as any bank
in the Commonwealth. And if that is
the criterion of good institution, there
is not one in the Commonwealth more
deserving Of public confidence. Still, if
Locofocoism has marked it for victim,
it is likely to be offered up to appease the
wrath of the individual liability patriots,
whose peculiar desire is to see the banks
and the energies of the people crushed.

Electrical phenomenon.

An account of human electricity was
given in a number of Silliman's Journal
some time ago, which might, if carried
out, lead to some important conclusions
in respect to human phenomena hereto
fore unexplained. The subject became
so electric that sparks were drawn from
snd even spontaneously issued from the
ends OF her fingers. During this time an
intense Aurora showed itself.-These
phenomena continued for several months,
the sparks being readily given out when
ever the lady approached any conductor
of electricity. She could touch nothing
metallic, without emitting an electrical
spark, which was annoying circumstance
to her.-These Appearances were proper
tionally heightened when the air was
warm, and the lady was in good spirits.
During cold weather, and when she was
in melancholy mood these phenomena
were suspendcd.-When sitting at a stove
with her feet upon the metal edge, the
sparks were drawn out at intervals of a
few seconds-from to 6 sparks per
minute. The lady was about 80 years of
age, of sedentary habits, and rather sick
ly. She had suffered from rheumatic and
neuralgia affections about two years prior
TO this time.

Living in London.

Du Sole, in one Of his late inimitable
letters from London, gives us the following
information as to the price of provisions
in that great metropolis
''Luxuries OF all kinds are exceedingly
expensive; and even the ordinary neces-
saries Of life are rendered very high by
the policy of universal taxation. Just
now the price Of bread is twenty cents
per loaf; of beef eighteen cents and NUT
ton sixteen cents per pound; Of potatoes
eighty cents per bushel. Delicacies Of
the humber kind, and such as are eaten
by the multitude at home, present still
sorrier aspect. Fowls, land, by the way,
the poulterers' shops are seen here almost
as frequently as butchers ditto. being at
present $3.50 pair, geese $500, and
turkeys $500 each, if of excellen! quail
ty. On the whole, then, this is capital
place of abode for the millionaire, but it
affords an extremely small chance for an
enjoyment Of the good things of this life,
TO those whose daily toll is all that can be
depended upon for that purpose"
