THE OREGON QUESTION.
WASHINGTON, March 6, Is

WASHINGTON, March b, 1870.
Excitement prevails, in the political circles OF this
metropolis, to the greatest extent. Every one Ii
talking OF the explosion which took place yesterday
in the ranks Of the administration in the Senate, and
which almost leaves Mr.. Polk In the same position
as that in which Mr.. Tyler was lett by the whigs
at the extra session OF lS4l The breach in the de-
mocratic ranks on the Oregon question which began
on the one side by Mr.. Haywood, and on the other
by Mr. Allen, is, believe, irremediable. The vio-
ence and feeling which prevail between these two
ultra sections cannot be described NOR conceived
BY the war party Mr.. Polk is denounced in the ae-
verest terms for coquettlng with both sections-on
the 10th parallel, with one, to-day, and on 81 40
with the other tomorrow.
The war which began yesterday, will be continue
ed throughout the whole of next week, and when
ii will end, no one knows Both sections declare
positively that Mr.. Polk has been talking and con-
hding them, according to their several positions
occupied on the Oregon gu .stion. The disappoint-
ed section are ready, and do, denounce him with
the utmost virulence and aspenty The effect Of

no authentic information sufficient to produce the
belief. either that the British government, ON their
part, have commenced negotiations again or, that
the American Government have renewed them, on
their part. There might have been, on former
occasion but, do not believe that any one can
state positively, or on his belief, that negotiations
have been recommended: In the present state OF
feeling between the President and parties, it -
doubted whether the negotiation will proceed at al;
such is the confusion and uncertainty tnat 20 uni
versalIy prevail Some, supposng that Mr. Polk, 10
anxious to dispose of the whole matter, now be-
eve that he is preparing, IN time, to send to the
Senate with the offer OF the 49th parallel, IN order
not have moral courage enough to attempt any such
thing in the face Of the party that 60 tor the whole
of Oregon up to o. 40.
This rupture in the democratic ranks Is lar more
important, and will lead 10 more extraordinary re-
suits, even than that which took place between
Tyler and the wings In 184l. The quarrel between
Tyler and the wings was in reference to national
question, unconnected with our ioreign reiaaons-
tween the President and his party, on the oregon,
involves "peace" or "war" with England-ths
settlement Of the tariff question-thef fate OF Texas
and our policy in relation to Mexico. The Oregon

the greatest bitterness, and aege that the whole has
been produced by intrigue with the British Minis

On the whole, think that Mr.. Polk's position is
extremely embarrassing nor, can see, as yet, any
possibility Of his escaping from the dilemma into
which he has been forced.
