NORTHERN SENTIMENT.

1t is we'll to remember, in noticing the COM
ments of Northern papers on Mr. Webster's po-
siton, that they greatly fettered by their hav-
ing for long time past, committed themselves
in the strongest manner to the Wilmot Proviso.
With nearly all of them, the contest has been to
prove according to their political attachments,
that the Democratic party, or the Wing party, is
the better Free Soil party. When Northern
statesman steps forward to propose policy of
Cancellation and forbearance, he must rely upon
something behind the partisan press OF his sec
ton. Some journals, more sedulous to preserve
the peace of the country, than to maintain per-
verse consistency, will be bold enough to approve.
But the great reliance for the success of a just
compromise must rest upon the intelligent public
sentiment of the North. If members would
calmly await its manifestation, we are confident
that the prediction, attributed, by correspondent
of the Charerton Courier, to Northern gentle
man of distinction visiting Washington, would be
verified. 'In five weeks (said hey you will witness
the great ground-swell of conservative opinion in
the North"

THE TINES TERMS.
MR.. CALHOUN's EXPLANATION.

We publish to-day, from the full report, the inn
portant portion of the conversational discussion
between Mr.. Calhoun Mr.. Cass and Mr. Fooe.
The South Carolina Senator strives hard to mend
his position of hostility to the Union as it is We
do not think he has made the matter better for
himself 1t is extremely fortunate for the good
of the country that Mr.. Calhoun has at last dis
tinctly betrayed his true political sentiments. The
consequence is, that wiser and better men will
represent the Southern cause in the present con-
troversy. His influence is now confined to the
little cotere of extreme sectionalists, whom alone
he is qualified to lead.

an assault upon one occupying the tender relation OF
