THE 'PITTSEIIIIGIL DAM- MORNING '.POST:
EpEhmd , aadi the Oregon . : Question.
The reader will find in the. Post - of today, very
important matter in the shape cifletters from Eng
land: These' letters, it will be seen by the remarki
- of the editor of the Washington "Union;” are from
men of high character, men ti' ho have'every oppor
_
- tnnity necessary to enablethemto acquireeorreet
infOrmaticin onthe all-important question which at
• ; present so' much agitates the. public mind in Eng
land as Well as the United. Stales. The delay;of the
. Senate to act upon the notice Question, and the very
remarkable speeches of several Senators, has, it
would scent, been productive of great mischief.
- - . ..
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." This is
very great mistake; a very large majority of the
American people are with the President: and will.
`icith unWav inv . , firmness, pustain him. We ri.joice
e -sincerely that we are able to present our readers
\ r with'such conclusive evidence as the letters refer
red to aFord, that if the measures of the President
.Naril.,..e"rrly in the sc.-ion of Congress. !Peri% ed. its
sanction, all would now have been well.
T , The,president's annual message. although it bold-1
;asserted our right to the whole of Oregon. and
. - -i,re.cominintled. that the ~ .Notice - be pi% en, excited
but little feeling in England. In fact, we heard
but little about 'war from the British until after
the commencement of the debate on the Notice
llesolutions in the Suite. As soon, howel Cr. as
, -
it was ascertained that there was men in that body
ready to express doubts uS,,,to the justice of the
American claim beyond the 10th degree, the tone
of the British press was changed:smut now we have
the
-authority of the writers of the letters re:erred
to, for believing that public opinion liaslso under
gone a-change, and that there is now but little
hope of a peaceful settlement of the question. So
.mach: for the efforts made by certain men in 'Orb
',Senate, to defeat the measures of the administri,
fiOn. Letthe responsibility of ohatever may fol

E11;llia from u private letter film' an .lincrican

• - ' "LoNnoe, April IS, 1830.
"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. Nor do they stop here; for they are
astly augmented by the pens of such restless sad
mischievous spiritS as " • and • • •
Under rues adverse circumstances, I frankly eon
;ess to you that I Cannot disenser a solitary ray Jot
hot e for maintaining our rights in Oregon,:exerpt
by the last resort—the ulthaa rata:, ort;atilms. It
is a melancholy repection to me, one which bows'
me down with a load of grief-but - One which I can
not dismiss from my mind since • • • •
• " •. How ditli....uently did I'l iew this mat
ter before I left our-tountryl I then orrac /Ilea that
Peel was Fi"Cip' , ' ' in his I.lace. and that England
would yield-till that she could, comnistently with
honor,leore she would has e the temerity to strike.
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.-

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

have offered, and which would have been presented
months and months ago, had the Senate seen fit to
act on that subject:"

"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

,"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

(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.

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.
Whiskey—Common 17ia1iic per gallon. Rec

Cotton--Small sales of Tennessee and Alabama

Cotton Yarns—The supply is fair, and prices
have advanced to 6i, 7i and Sic, for 700, 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. Cargoes
