The Washington Union, of Saturday, has the
following: .
Thus has terminated the most extraordinary
and alarming political difficulty which has ever
disturbed the politics Of this country. It's origin
Compromise; and its close was appropriately ef
fected on the anniversary of the inauguration Of
deorge Washington as President Of the United
states under the federal constitution. The Illus
trioas Father of his Country the occasion of hS
accession to the presidency, says: "Every step by
which TREY have advanced" (speaking of the
States.) ''to the character of an independent ma
tion, seems to have been distinguished by some
providential agency" We submit that this grace
ful acknowledgment of Divine interposition in be-
half of the republic Is most appropriately repeated
on the present occasion.
The National lutalligencer in an editorial on the
same subject holds the following language
So We have settled this great battle by CoMPgo-
MISE the Third May il last longer and lead to
permanent peace than either Of the two preceding
Compromises of 1920 apd 1850! The great Father
OF Compromises is not here TO witness this re-
newed tribute to the peliey of mutual concession
In the adjustment of our political difficulties, but
Whatever might be his opinion of the particular
measure which has just received the sanction of
Congress, he would doubtless be reioiced TO per
ceIee thaf,in spite Of the attempts which have been
made to pronounce 1.-The day of Compromises
past, the spirit of reciprocal concilaton in which
they bad their origin has not yet lost its power
IL the Councils of the nation.
Saturday night the President was serenaded.
About 1000 persons were present. At the close of
national anthem he came forward and delivered
speech, from which we make the following ex-
tract:
This is q great occasion on which you have as
scnbled Ii is far above The best interests
of the country were involved in the long contest
which has 80 happily terminated. Applause.l /
hope and believe that the result will tend to pro
mote the peace aud prosperity of our glorious
Union, [Cheers; and, of all the people upon the
Iace of the EARTH the people OF Washington are the
most interested in preserving the unity of interests
which has rendered us glorious abroad and success
fu' and prosperous at home. Cheers.J do not
think that it will be becoming in me to enter into
any discussion of the great question which has 80
happily terminated. / therefore must conclude
these brief remarks with again repeating to you
how heartily feel your kindness, and how CRATE
fully shall remember it to the last period of
my existence. Cheers.
Speeches were also made by Messrs. Toombs of
Ga, Gwin of Cal, Clay of Ky, Letcher Of Va, and
Stevenson of ky national salute of 81 guns,
