The Oregon Notics.-Yesterday, tie
important intelligence came 10 hand thai
the Senate, after nine weeks discussion,
had come 10 division on the Oregon no
tice. The sabjec, is too comprehensive
in its features, too pregnant 10 lis conse-
auences, as regards the peace Of The world
not to excite the most marked attentioni
aud, accordingly, The daily papers nave
"leaders" on It, in which the present and
future bearings of this new move are clear
" and graphically pointed out. Our Amer,
;cao reader will be struck with the cool
and diepified tone which pervade these
articles. AS pieces Of composition, they
will command attention-as exposlllons o,
peace, respect. The notice is not viewed
10 belligerent spirit; it will not be the
fault Of the people OH this side OF the wa
Ter, if i, should subsequently partake oil
that jaundiced ingredient.
Six months ago fears of rupture with
abe U. States were general. Now they
have disappeared. Not The least commo-
tion was visible yesterday, when it became
known tina, the Senate had passed the re-
solution for giving the notice, and, as we
have in,imatcd in another column, it had
no visible effect on the cotton or any other
market. This is most gratifying. We are
now in the second acl Of The Oregon dra-
ma, under Mr.. Folks management-may
the concluding one be. as satisfactory and
pacific! ,,o,

The resolutions authorisine the P:esl'
den, of the United States to give notice
for lhe termination Of the Oregon Conven-
ton of 1927, have now received the sane.
ton of the Senate by majority of ~ to
Ia votes.
In spite Of The excessive discussion 10
which The Oregon question has given rise
on the other side OF the Atlantic, and The
extreme reserve which has hitherto been
maintained on this. there is al bottom the
same deep and earnest hope in both coun'
tries to make every eXerton, consistent
with their true interests and honor, to ter
inmate the controversy. Ii is in this spir-
it lha, we are willing to receive the notice
for the termination Of tho existing conven,
ton. In this spirit, and with an express
Recommendation to that effect, The resolu-
tions have been framed and carried 10 both
Houses of Congress; and in the same
spirit we do not doubt that the negotiation
will be forthwith received.
The form in which The resolution has
been ultimately adopted by The Senate Of
The United States is extremely disnified
and becoming. and 10 this respect 1t may
be regarded as a triumph Of the moderate
party over the violent and excessive pre-
tensions of The gentlemen who acted with
Mr.. Allen.
