When we wrote our .weather article last week, the
skies were clear and the air balmy, like that of June.
Friday night too was pleasant, but when we awoke on
Saturday morning the feathers were flying, and the
Journal which contained the notice of the delightful
Inseasonable weather, was distributed to our borough

that a new frame addition is now being made to the

the hilliness of Steam Engine building and machine

- - CONGRESSIONAL.
• On Saturday last, the Preilent of the United
Stab* in accordance - with a resoletion'of Congress,
transmitted to She House of - Representatives, the
seeent
correspondence between Mr. Buchanan. the
American,. Secretary of State,-.idd Mr. Pakenbam,
'the British Minister, in relation to Oregon. From
the correspondence .*r the Iran STATICA,
zerrx, and from other sontrell, we gather. the
following abstract of this rim 'aittompt at negotia
tion. • I
The brat letter was from lilrJ Buchanan to Mr.
M'Lane, dated 13th December 1845, in which
Mr. B. states that the President has received infor.
mation of extensive warlike preparations, and di
rects hint to seek an interview with Lord Aberdeen,
'and inquire whether these preparations have refer
ence to the state of relations between . Great Bri
tain and the United Slat( s.
The' next is a letter from Mr. M'Lane to Mr.
Buchanan, stating that be had an interview with
Lord Aberdeen, who bad frankly admitted that
they were making preparations, but not exclusively
'on account of,the relations bet Ween the two coun-
. _ .
tries, though it was-due to frankness to say,:that
the state of these relations were such' as to.render
preparations' necessary. Mr. 11I'Lane as requested I
gives his own opinion, which leaves the impression
upon the mind, generally, that though the 'great
activity now manifest in the English Dock Yards,
bail not previously, a reference to this country, vet
in case of the failure of all negotiations between
the tw o countries, Great Britain would undoubt
edly use all her available force to Strike a bold and
effective blow, to give-the first -tut, and make it
count. -
The!next lettCr was from Mr. Pakenham to Mr.
Buchanan. dated. 27th Dec.i, 1845, , inquiring
whether an offer would be accepted by our govern
ment, if made by England to submit the subject
and an equitable division of the territory in dispute
to the-arbitration of some friendly power or State.
If made at all, it would be made in a spirit of mod
eration'and fairness. The territory in dispute, Mr.
P. says is of small value to both natinns compared
with the importance of preserving friendly rela
tions,,dc.c ,
Mr. Buchanan replies to this on the 3d of Jan
uary 1846; and states that such an offer would
not be'aceepted, as it would be admitting, on the,
part of the United States that Great Britian has
a colorable title to the whole of Oregon. Mr.
Pakenbarn acknowledges the receipt of this letter
on the same day, and says 'lie will transmit it to
her Majesty's goverrment.
On the 16th of January, Mr. Pakenham replies
more at length, to Mr. Buchanan's letter of the 3d;
deblaring that Great Britain /ins rights in the whole
of Oregon. He suggests, hoWever, that the ques
tion of title can be submitted to it mixed commis
sion or to a court of distinguished Civilians, and
earnestly presses the subject upon the considers
tion of the Secretary of State;
On the 4th inst., Mr. BuChanan replies to Mr.
P.'s last letter, and gives the reasons why this
government cannot • consent to refer either the
question of title, or of a division:of the territory in
dispute, to any arbitration however constituted;:
intimating that our title to the whole was consid
ered Clear, but that a considerable part of the ter
ritory bounded upon and was of great importance
tp.the United States—while) of very little
th Great Britain. One Tease given was that there
Were no harbors from lat. 42 to near lat. 49, and
should itlre referred and a diviaion of the territory
b 4 made ao that these harbarri would be thrown
into the British portion, it would render ours
nearly Valueless. These harbors were absolutely
essential to us, for the use of out whalemen in the
Pacific, and . also for the PUrpOse of carrying on
our wide with China and other conutries border
ing on the
,pacific. • . 1
On the whole, it does no tappear that the two
governmidts have approeChed • any nearer. to .a
settlement than they had at the commencement of
the Session, only that therelii a more friendly ,
spirit manifested, 'and negOiiations 'being opened
may lead to an amicable adjustnient after a while..
We may add, however, hat it seems to be the
determination of England Ito Iplace this country
I I

from us refusals to negotiate and to arbitrate, and
then to trust to her own ,rng,lit to vindicate what
she calls her own right.
It is said that the message ,caused quite a sen

After an exciting debate' of several Weeks, the
I
vote on the Oregon,Notice has at last been taken.
L I I ' -
We give the vote in another- column. Previ
ous to the passage of the r resolutions, Mr. Adams
made a strong speech in favorolgivingthe noticd,
If
which attracted much attention. .In relation to
this speech, which is toniong for our columns, the
U. S. Gazette remarks as follow's:
"Mr. Adams has taken one'of those bold stenis
which. we see sometimes assumed in the minor
affairs of life. He takes the proposition' of.the
President, and advocates it to the extent, because
he knew that the extent of the
,proposition is ex
actly what the President would have avoided; and
while he enforces his views, he hesitates not to
show how tinnalional,,,tiow )entirely partizan are
those of the Executive.Th
Mr. Admits. too:carriers home to the South the
proposition of the President, ' , ovar or no war," and
allows them an early te.ie of tht consequence of
their follies in electing, Mr', Polk. And he stands
'now on. the'floor of the Honse of Representatives
With one bend Clutched iii the' roat of the admin
oitretion, end the other that of the South ; and
while he • makes them- look shamefully and re
proachfully into the face of 'each : other, he whis
pers to the South that they are. eating the "Sodom
apples" which they gathered when Texas and Or
'egon were put into the Presidential canvass."
' In the Senate, on Tue ' sday last, Mr,'Allen made
• ,
a flaming speech in relathin to abrogating the joint
ocenpacy. In the coura l ci of his. remarks, while
speaking u p on the notice net being cause of war.
I '
Mr. Mangum rose and said he desired to ask hint ,
,a questOri. Mr. Allen. With a surly manger, gave
Way for That purpose. Mr.:Mangum then asked
hirer if the suppressed portion of Mr. McLane's
letter to Mr. Buchanan Itlid-!not "contain infertile-
lion that Lord Aberdeen , had said that the British
Government' would not &I nsider the giving of the
notice-either.as CIRISO of ;war', oras at, all offensive!,
Mr. A. hesitateda 'mjnrent, and then said that
l •
the Senator . had asked him a question which lie

was probably, able to an swer himself, and it there;
fore saved liim; Mr. the' rouble of answering
it. The reply of ;Mr. Allen look's as if there was
some truth in the surinise.. If this •be the case,
our government has not acted in such a way as
to cover itself with laurr le ,
All the-war speeches,

all the bluster and brav ado , have been made with
the consciousness. that' pri g laad would not

The Tariff resolutions,which passed the Senate,
•
unanimously, after having been discuised by the
House.for about two weeks, finally . passed. to. ti
second reading on Friday last, by a vote of 79 to
13. Ths reaolutioia then canto to the third read.,
ing when Idr. Piolett moved to go into a commit
tee of the whole for the purpose of adding an
amendment, instructing the Senators, and segued',
ing the Representatives in Congress, to vote against
a United States Rant. against the distribution of
the proceeds of the public lands, and inlayer of
a sub- Treasury: , The Runic agreed to go into
coorrnittee for amendment by a vote 0152 . to 40.--
- The' Resolutions as •amended were then passed by
a vote of 54 to 4.. The Whigs would not vote
against the Tariff resolutions, and could dot de
clare themselves in favor of the amendment.. So
they refused to vide for the resolutions encumber
ed as they were, and thus defeated the object of
the Loco Focos, which was to array the Whigs
in opposition to the Resolutions so that they might
declare the Whig Party to he opposed to the Tar-.
iff. That this was the design is evident from the
fact that.:Mr. PioleU himself, voted against the
resolutions as amended.
The conduct of the Loco Focus on this occa
sion deserves the execration of all honest men.--: .
The rowlutions which were introduced in the Sen
ate and which .passed that body unanimously,
were brought in by a Loco Foco. The introduction
of the : resolutions was not a whig measure, but the
whigs l . being true friends of the Tariff, supported
the resolutions Unanimously. Whon the resolu
tions went to the House the Whigs thero ridvoca-
ted them, and voted for them.
The object then, of the Loco Focos in saddling
the resolution with such an amendment,' must
have been to destroy the effect which their unan
imous adoption might have had upon Congress.
They passed the Senate unanimously, but they ,
new have to go back to that body, and most pro
bably there will be a long discussion before a vote'
will be takin upon the amendtnent. This will to
a great extent destroy the effect of their former
unanimous adoption. The people can see for
theniselves how much the Loco Foco party are the
friends of the Tariff, and how anxious they are for
its preservation

riimed.at tl;4' leading interests of Pennsylvaniit,
and is no doubt intended by the'Administration ,
as a rebuke to those who practiced the gross decep
thin upon the people by misrepresenting Polk's
views on this subject, and declaring him to be as
good a Tariff man as Henry . Clay. Should such
become a law, it will prostrate the whole
c.'o;al and Iron trade of the State at a Anita blow.
Thirty per cent. ad valorem on pig metal, r would
be about $4 50 per ton. Under the present
Tariff the duty, is $9 . per ton. On Rail Road
Iron the present duty is $25-30 per cent 'duty
Would only be about $9 per ton. On the smaller
ntanufactures,of Iron the reduction, is still greater.
Tne present duty is St 75 per ton on Coal.—'

iforty to fifty cents per lon. From thesis compar
