in obedience to resolution, stating that no FUR
Their correspondence had taken place between
our Government and that of Great Britain on
the subject of Oregon, than has already been
made public.
The FEELING IN ENGLAND. The opinions
expressed by the London Times, (Pnollshed
yesterday on the Oregon question, may be
presumed to contain the sentiments OF the
English government; and from these we may
infer, (what we have always belIcved,) that,
whilst England sincerely desires to avoid war
with the United States, she will never yield
To our pretcnsons to the whole of Oregon
We have always considered the idea that we
could intmdate England into submission, as
perfectly ridiculous, and as the worst policy
that we could possibly adopt. That she is not
to be frightened into REIMBURSEMENT OF her
claims upon Oregon, is evident from the pre-
parations which she has made to defend them.
1t would seem then to Be our best policy to rely
less upon threats aud more upon negotiation.
The dispute can be honorably and sAtisiacto-
rily settled, ifthe proper disposition exist; but
if this matter is to be converted into political
capital to aid in making any individual Presi-
dent, we shall run a great risk of having a
destructive war as the consequence. How
ever this might suit reckless politicians, it
would be ruinous to the best interests of the
country.
The general feeling in England, as expressed
IN the newspapers, appears to be that of dis
appointment, mingled with Indignation, at the
course recommended to Congress. With so
many and important interests impeling the
could hardly be believed, that either would
wantonly seek to produce hostilities-and yet
England can justly charge this upon the United
States, should our Government persist in is
claim to "the whole of Oregon or none."-
The London Times reasons upon this subject
calmly and temporarily and insists, that if
the views of our Government are pacific, the
dispute can be amicably adjusted. 1t admits
that the notice will not be cause Of war; but
apprehends that the measures which may fol-
low the notice, especially if any attempt be
made to eject British subjects from Oregon,
may result in hosGlifes.
We are under the impression that when the
speeches made in the Senate upon the Oregon
question shall be read in England, they will
have a conciliatory influence, inasmuch as
they will shew, that the most distinguished
members of that body are opposed to all mea-
sures having tendency to bring the two ma
lions into collIsion-and. if it be true, that our
minister in London has been instructed to in
form the British minister that we are prepared
to negotiate upon the basis of the 49th parallel
of latitude, we may reasonably hope, that a
few months will terminate all anxiety upon
the subject of Oregon.

LATER FROM Sr. DOMINGO. We are IN
formed, says the New York Herald, by Captain
Cuts, Of the brig Hayti, from Port au Prince,
having left that place on the 8Oth ult., that
matters in political way, were gradually as
Stunning a peaceful appearance, and that Ex-
President Prerote had sent in his submission to
the new administration. A rumor was preva-
lent when he left, that the Dominicans had
made a proposition of peace to the Haytlens,
which would no doubt be accepted. The
principles Of the new Government under Prcsi-
dent Richie seem to meet with general approba-
ton. The inhabitants now are permitted to
cut mahogany and other concessions granted
to them which under the old administration
was deemed unconstitutional. The Island was
very healthy, coffee scarce and high.
