ADJOURNMENT OF THE MATE -DENU NOTATION
ip4 i9 OF SEARCH AND VISITATION. N
It will be seen from the published proceedings in
another place that the Senate Of the United States
after an extra session Of two days held in pursuance
of the Presidents proclamation Of Monday last ad
iournsd Yesterday without day; the session having
been devoted among other executive business to the
as understood, ef important treaties
with foreign powers. ssiha' st lA
The Senate did not adjourn, we are glad to
announce, without previously adopting the res
olutions introduced by its chairman Of Foreign
Relations, Mr.. Mason, which are understood to
have had the cordial endorsement Of the Presi-
dent, declaring the unalterable position Of this
government in regard to the British pretension to
the right Of search or visitation. The resolutions
denouncs the recent outrages perperated upon our
flag in the Gulf; demand an "unequiyocal and
final disposition" by the two governments of that
psrata questio Of their international diplomacy and
record the Full approval by the Senate Of the
action Of the Executive in promptly despatching its
whole disposable naval force to the Gnf for the re
sstance Of the insolent proceedings in question.
The resolutions were unanimously adopted.
The Senate has thus devolved upon the President
the task Of bringing about final and unequiyocal
settlement, between the two governments, of ques-
ton which once produced q protracted war between
the two nations, and which, left unsettled by the
war, has remained an adjourned difference in abey-
ance from that day to the present We feel salts
fed thai the recent insults to our flag in the waters
Of Cuba will be properly apologized for by the Brit
isli authorities. Such amende honorable, however,
can only extend to the immediate injuries which
have been received, and would not touch tho ques-
ton of principle lying behind and at the bottom Of
these mere incidents of the obnoxious claim of Eng
land.
The recent occurrences in the Gulf have served
to drag from its dark this ugly goblin of our
diplomacy which must now be eifeetualy and finally
exercised from the places it has haunted so long.
Fortunately, our country has in her State Depart
ment statesman of no halfway views, aud Of his
oroa opinions this immediate question; and has,
in hsr Chief Magistrate, the ablcst and moAt ex-
perienoed diplomatist Of which she can boast We
cypress but the universal feeling Of the country
when we rejoice in the reflection that this difficult
question IL in the best hands into which it could
possibly have fallen

WHAT ARE THE ABoIIIYoNIs1s DoINGs


We are 30 much creatures Of habit that even very
offensive and disagreeable practices if suddenly dis
continued, excite species Of uneasiness and alarm
II il were possible that the commission Of crime
should abruptly cease, it would create species of
bewilderment, and perhaps excite a little distrust
'est the very good order of the community might
betoken some grand scheme of plumber and rascality
in the near future. IfN TtE
We confess that in the present quiet condition OF
the country on the everlasting subject of slavery
there is something which possibly we do not fully
comprehend For more than four years the Union
has been made vocal with warnings of the aggres
sive march of the ''slave power" Slavery was con-
quering Kansas and trampng under foot the "freo
labor" of that devoted Territory. Slavery was elect
ing Presidents controlling Congress, making federal
laws and paving the way for the general conquest of
all tho free States. There evil equal to that
of the " slave oligarchy." Now all is peace, quiet
and apparent indifference ON this fearful subject
Can it be that Kansas being driven out Of Congress,
anti-savery has been driven out OF politics
What else but abotionism has kept up the republ
can party? Will the reader devote five minutes to
the subject and tell at the end OF his abors what
principle Of government, what measure Of policy
what dstins tive idea independent Of mere sectional
preiudices can be referred To as basis of the re-
publican organization?
Are we, then, to receive the present. tame and
lifeless condition of the opposition as sign OF the
departure of life from their body and of the restor-
alton hereafter of peace and harmony between the
North and the South? te gaIilHsi s4 ebatff
1t is certainly good time to be in the democratic
party. r,...,ls lgf , la.t.. ~ .,ra rsss,.
