The writers of theletters incline to.the opinion, that if the President's recommendations had been promptly carried out , by Congress, the Oregon • • . question would ere this hale been settled satisfac torily. 'The truth is, that the course of the Senate. :was well calculated to impress the English Minis try with erroneous notions us it regards the feel ings of the American Government and the ian people; the faltering. course of the Senate, we doubt not, created the impression in England. that President:would not be sustained in hiS asser ..,. tion that the title of the United States to the whole s - Oregon is ,'-clear arid unquestionable."

"It is now generally believed, 1 . 21. the best inform ed circles, that Sir Robert Peel Will succeed in el fecting the change proposed by him some time since in the corn-laws; and that he will then, with his ministers, retire from office. This will happen at a very early day; 'probably before the middle of next month. A neW cabinet, will of course, be im mediately formed, after the dessolution of the pres ent one, under the selection of Lord John Russel; and Lord Palmerston it is confidentially asserted, will be restored tolls old post of secretary fur for eign affairs. The chief obstacle to the formation of a ministry by lltissel, at the time of Peel's re signation, was the objection urged against Palmer ston on account of the hostile feelings which he was known to entertain towards France. It was feared on both sides of the cliaanel. that he would be instrumental in destroying the •rnirate which subsisted between Guizot and Peel, or rath er between the two govenunents. "In anticipation of the early resignation of the' Peel ministry, Palmerston availed himself of the E as te r holydays to make a %Win, the French me troplis;, where he still continues, for the purpose, it is very evident, of reconciling Louis Philippe to his restoration. He has been mostly kindly receilivl by Monsieur Guizot and the other members of the cabinet, and his mission doubtless will terminate snccetssfully. His sentiments with regard to France will hereafter he entirely pacific. because his con tinuance in office would be of but short duration here they to Leconte otherwise; but I have awful forebodings that our country is to find in him au inveterate deadly enemy. In his new-honi zeal fin the Welfare of France, he will at once seize upon Guizot 's 'balance ofpower doctrine in north Amer ica, and use his position and his talents to COll6lllll - the most desperate purposes at any time con templated by England or France to check our groWth or diminish! the influence hid our insti• tutions are exercising over the other nation of the earth. - “I most sincerely regret that there should lan so slight a prospect for adjusting the Oregon questum before Peel s administration is at an end. Such an event could Mine boen consumed, if there had been even a moderate degree of good management in Congress. Had the -notice, - so sincerely. and I 'may add, so patriotically urged by the Preaudent been promptly authorized to be ginen, with the el / evated , ground upon which our title was placed by the correspondence which accompanied the mes-- saoe,therais not the shadow ut doubt but that en • r;thing could have been, before tins. amicably , ar ranged, and to,tue general satistactton of the per)- . ple of the United States. hut I distinctly tunaar that such a result s no longer obtainable by neat.- tiatian. Startle not,\ when I state to you- as my candid'heliel, that even should the notice ;min 0 by :lath inst., under ;he House resolution, nothing like the clear hae of the -firth parallel can he Fe cured! Peel could not be pre, ailed upon to settle at that, just as he is going out, if the ludic& was now 'Arline him; if we were en er disposed to com promise on that boundary. Russel will hesitate, long, in my opinion. betirra he will tikel” "Thus have we been carried. by the timidity rd the Senate, to the brink of a precipice, where NA at with all its horrors—its demoralizing influences-- is beheld in the distance. The arguments agaitn4 our claim in that body, and the various propos.tirrns made there to adjust the question definitely. regard less of the opinions of the Execut in v, hat e rendeied diplimiary upon the subject a mete mockery. Ad ded to these difficulties, which the administration has to encounter, :is the press of the oppin4ition. which seems to Lase no holier object than to in validate our ownehip of the territory, and to im pugn the nior:rcs of the President for insisting on our rights.

I now perceive, however. that she regards the ex ecutive power of my country, as far as It is wielded in this controversy, utterly paralyzed by the action of the senate; and, intoxicared almost to insanity with the recent success of her in the East, the pacific sentiments which prevailed in the pub lic mind, as relates to the United States, are rapidly giving way to those of a hostile and belligerent character.- HIGHLY I.M PORTANI The Washington city Union of the rah inst. says: "We hate birch furnished with extracts frOm 2 letters written by Americans in England, and both', dated on the same day, the day met ious to the sailing of the Cambria—the one from London, tie other from a manufacturing town. We du not know, nor have we tic slightest idea, who the authors arc; but the gentleman who funnshes them is well known to us, :mil be vouches for their pro bity. their intelligtince, and their posirssing means of information (one of thnni most particularly) enjoyed by but few and this assurance from him is perfectly satisfactory to our own minds, The second extract is important, as showing the coin cidence of two American minds (between which. we are assurial, there cannot hate been any coin munication) in regard to the dependence of peace upon Sir Robert Peel and Lord Aberdeen, and the vital importance therefore that they should have had that opportunity presented to them for making a move towards the renewal of negotia tions, which the reception 14 the •notice" would have offered, and which would have been presented months and months ago, had the Senate seen fit to act on that subject:" "I begin to believe that we are on the very verge of war—precipitated into it by the cruel policy of some of " • and other distinguished men. It is now becoming A eiy questionable wheth er negotiations will be opened on the Oregon ques tion from this side of the waters. The Hudson Bay Company are undoing. by the weapons placed in their hands at Washington' all that has been done here. "The 'Herald,' the tory organ, published yester day a letter from a New York correspondent, in; which the idea is suggested that the Brittish should take immediate possession of so much territory in Oregon as they believe belongs to them, which is understood to embrace all north of the Columbia. The Herd approves of this course. The 'Times,' some tune \ ago, declared in favor of 49° as the line, with certnia slight reservations. This morning, it says if 49° Were ollbred, the whole of Vamanner's island must b y e reserved, with a division of the straits of Fuca.,`the tree navigation of the Columbia ; '' pay for all the farts erected on the American side. and a number of over stipulations, to secure Brit tish interests. ,"The Peel ministry , is gone; and Palmerston is feasting in Paris, and 'giving in his adhesion to the Guizot policy. I fear he will not manifest the slight cat solicitude to settle the s question, but rather keep it in stispence as the ostensible cause forwar, should the 'balance Of power' doctrine be attempted by the French premier on our coninent.

For the Morning Pest •The new and splendid steamer St. Anthony, lett our wharf yesterday in fine stile, for St. Louis, :he t, a perfect model of a steamer, and an honor to the .Nleehanies of Pittsburgh. The Cincinnati Enquirer states that the river was rising rapidly on the Sth inst. at that Port. Phe Riler at Louisville on the Sth, inst. was in fine navigable order. (21-The Louisville Democrat of the Eth, sar.— There was a rumor in our city yesterday after. noon that intellii;ence had reached here, that the steamer Sultana had sunk in the Ohio on her up ward trip and that 14 lives had been lost. Upon making inquiry tie find that the impression is , that it is not correct, from the fact that the Sul tana would not be able to reach the Ohio on her upward trip so soon. Lou.TLc :y i reporter ol the 4th inst., says, the 311:4.ittsippi at thin point continue. to nEC at about the rate of 12 or 13 inches in twenty-four hours. We learn by the St. Croix. from Galena, that heavy rains have greatly swelled the Upper Mis issippi. The water on the Rapids was 4i feet when the St. Croix came over. The Illinois river is rising slowly. STEAM BOAT El rIREAS MAIL Sr:WK.—The N. O. Delta of the 2d inst., says: Capt. Moss; of the steamboat Hempstead, which arrived last night from Shreveport, reports that the steamboat Ex press Mail, Capt. Smoker, from Port Caddo, bound to this port, with a cargo of 1150 bales cotton, struck a snag at Dates' Landing, about- 60 miles below Shreveport,. on the 27th ult., and sunk to cabin floor. The boat, it is thought, will prove a total loss—the greater portion of the cotton will be saved in a damaged state. -No lives lost. The captain and crew came down on the Hempstead last night. We learn from Cast. Smoker that the boa t was partially insured. The manifest of the cargo of the Express Mail has been left at the counting house of Messrs. Lillard, Mushy & Co. dry dock has been constructed at New Orleans, capable of accommodating the largest steamboats. Flour—There is no kind of animation in the Flow market whatever. The prices have declined to $3,25 for mixed. Some small lots sold at $3,- and one or two at $3,30. Whiskey—One lot of 40 Ida sold at 103 c, one of 53 at the same, and another of 30 at 16ic. Wheat—The Mills are now paying 65c. Louisville, May 7. For the past two days the weather has been changeable and unfavorable for business. Sales generally have been rather dull. Bacon—From wagons Hog Round 4ia4i cents. Sides and Hams have slightly advanced since our last quotations; Hams saslc, Shoulders 4a4-1 etc. but small demand for Hama and Shoulders.

Mississippi is quoted at G7 i a7, very lit tle in market. Cotton Yarns—The supply is fair, and prices have advanced to 6i, 7i and Sic, for 700, 600 and 600. Tobacco—The sales of premium Tobacco will take place at the Upper Louisville Warehouse on the second Tuesday in May. ;Hemp is in demand in this market at sssas6o per ton, according to quality and condition. Wit- ter-rotted $100a12.0 per ton. The weather for the past week has been quite unsettled, and during most of the time unpropitious to the transaction of levee , business. Receipts of Produce have been fair in quantity, and large_ amounts have-gone forward; but within' the last few days the scarcity of boats and the consequent high rates -of freight, have alike acted to repress shipping and domestic transactions. Those causes, opperatitjg.in connexion with the . continued scar city of money, have brought nearly every article of Produae down, causing a dullness in the market seldom witnerzed at this.seastm< of the year. The upper.rivers,' for the most part, ,are rising; and as there are! a great many boats engaged in bringing forward Produce, stocks must continue to accumu late, to the further depression of prices.
