measure which he had at that time under
consideration would enable him 10 renew
negotiations without calling in The juds-

The negotiation is,iosTbe transferred 10
London;
I'VE havesno doubt that these are all
visions Of the Imagination. No ultima.
tum has been sent mo offer has been
made--none will probably be made, be-
cause we humbly conceive il becomes the
duly Of The Britisiggoverpment TO make
one in';i,s turn. The theatre Of any ne,
COLLATION. has no, been shifted 10 London.
And YET the President has MOI abated in

State, to adjust The whole question IN a
harmonious aud peaceable manner"
The concluding sentence Of this extracI

Polk. whilsthe q desires" to see The con.
lroversy adjusted, designs il shall be only
by England giving up all her claims or

Mr.. Colquill, now before The Senate, sns-
ses,s, by "negoliation and compromise
and This we understand is the meaning Of
the words Of the Union upou which we
have remarked.-BaN Pat.
