The day has been remarkably fine. The churches
were too uncomfortable, and therefore preacher
betook himself to the avenue opposite Coleman's,
and spoke long time against bar-rooms, gambling
shops, high brick houses, bowling saloons, &c.
II is said that Mr. Mcconnell, of Alabama, will

WASHINGTON, Jan. II, 1886.
On Tuesday next, MIR. Aliens resolution TO give
the notice to England that this government is desi
rous Of terminating the joint occupancy of the Ore
gon territory, will come up for consideration. Mr..
Archer understand, intends moving its reference
to the executive branch Of the government-that is,
to the treaty making power, for final adjustment
II this melton should carry, there will be end put
at once to further agitation upon the SUBJECT and
those Of both parties in the Senate and House Of
Representatives, who wish to figure upon it, and for
buncombe, will be most numerically cut off from
that qualification.
In my letter Of the 9Th inst ioretod you, in ad-
OF every other writer on this question, that it
is probable treaty, having for its basis the 10Th
parallel may b. sent into the Senate before the end
Of this month now tell YOU three dsys IL advance
ton, which wish your readers to remember, and
by comparing this with my previous notice, that
treaty will conclude our difficulties with England;
good authority. The work, therefore, Of concluding
our difficulties with Great Britain, will be thrown
back upon Mr.. Polk and Mr.. Buchanan, who, hav-
ing placed them where they are, must bear oil
the responsibility that attaches to il. The wing
party do not want to leRslate upon the
subject, nor by opposition, run the risk of en-
countering public opinion, which 10 decidedly IN
Of that territory They rather in favor Of allow
ing the negotiations TO end in a treaty upon the
principles Of the Presidents offer to Mr. Pakennam,
than be compelled to vote for giving the notice,
brought to that point rather than allow the demo-
Gratis to carry off all the glory which such act Of
patriotism would create.
Mr. Calhoun and his friends, on the other hand,
adhering in principle to the whole OF the American
claim Of 81 40, but anxious to stave of war ~ long
they can, which they think would follow the notice
to quit also ready to vote II out OF the Senate
disgrace that awaits them Of being left in miserable
minority, in case Mr. Aliens resolution should be
put to vote.
This whole scheme Of operations, which l here
portray in colors not to be mistaken, is conclusive
10 the mind Of the most superficial poihcian-that
every arrangement for concluding this affair by
treaty has been fully made between Mr. Buchanan
and Mr. Pakenham and that they are only waiting
Tor the arrival OF tine next steamer from England,
which will bring out the ultlmatum OF the British
government, in order to sign it.
There is one inevitable result that must spriag
Mr. Polk should abandon the ground he has taken
in both his inaugural and last messages, he will be-
come object Of execratl0n with very large por.
ton OF his party, and the cause Of dividing and cut
ting them up into hostile factions. twill cause the
dissolution Of the democratic party, and perhaps
throw the President into position respecting both
parties, the whgr and democrats, analogous to that
OF Mr.. Tyler, subsequent TO the vetoes
In reviewing the whole ground Of this curious
piece Of political chcanery, noticed above, your
readers will not fail to observe with what anxiety
the President and Senate desire to shift the respon-
sbiy from one to the other, and uice versa, OF do
ing their duty to the country, spirit OF indepen-
dence and fearlessness
In little more than week from now, we shall
have fairer view OF things as they are and IN even
that short time, the President may find safer 10
follow The dictates of his conscience, if in accor-
dance with the expressions OF those who have
placed him where he is, than fall boaeath the anath
emas Of humbugged people, whose confidence in
when too late, has been sacrificed to the intrigues
and iealousies OF those who are looking for the
cession.

longer, the friends Of Oregon and OF national hon

Now they are left to the mercy Of interruptions

than they do for the rights and liberties OF the peo-
pie.
