We have (ssys The Fayetteville Observer,
Of the 9Th instantly numerous indications
from Washington Of better temper between ,
the Northern and Southern members. A. I
mons the most siguiican, Of these. is the re.
lection, by decided majority, of the propo.
si,ion Of the abolilionisi, Root, Of Ohio, TO in
s,rucl The committee on Territories to bring
IN bills applying The Wimol Proviso 10 New
Mexico, &c. On this cheering decision The
correspondent Of the Baltimore Sun says
"The Union is safe. The Northern mem
bers are backing GU, from the Wilmoi pro- /
vso. AT the beginning Of the session, Roots
resolution or any resolution carrying out the
Wilmo, proyiso, would have passed by
large majority.
"The delay occasioned by the difficulty
in making a speaker and clerk was public
benefit, by showing the members that the
passa ge Of tho proviso will work Of entirely
the Two regular old line parties, and 'ub'''
,u,e sectional parties. About thiriy.one
northern members, nearly half Wings, uni
ted with the southern members in lsying
| Mr.. Roots resolution on the table. Tins
will quiet the matter in the House. The
northern Wings are now disposed 10 favor
the presidents rrocis nation; or, IA some
way, TO evade or defer the slavery question:
: The correspondent, Of the N. \. Express
) says
!, "The Presidents Message and Mr.. Clay s
Compromise Resolutions have bad, ii seems
TO many here, a salutary effec, in calming
the slavery and an.i.savely passions, which
have threatened mere seriously to dl:seveI
: the Union than the public al distance have
any idea Of. Both OF their propositions show
that no Wilmot Proviso can be, or ought tc
: bs, passed now. Both take ground agslns
: such measure as now unnecessary, II no
uncslled for. The south thus feels relieved
! from what il has called insult" "useles
} insult" and the North feels it's way clear 10
; ward working out the right without givins

. believed by the keenest observers, viii nov
happily settle all thinss, aud settle then
J. right, too.

at "Ihe Senate ril mol agree to the Wiz

IN With such sgns (says the Observer Of
a better feeling at the forthwith all the j
