Ty, or not satisfactory; , but, having been! made, it did appe - ar. to him to require a i statement.frops those in authority in this • country, of the terms on which they would be satisfied to settle this question. That ; proposition, as he rfnderstood, had not! been.received by her Majesty's government ; butbad been dqelared to be totally.inadmis sible by our Minister in America, Ile (Lord John Tifssell) confessed he thought this was a hatity - proCeeding on the part of: the representative of her Majesty in the 11. States. But what he•NYished to ask was. whetb- - ' Cr the negotiations -had rtt-commenced or were going on': lie was not desirous that the papers should be presented to the; House; he was willitre- to leave the sego-; nation in the hands of her Majesty's gov eminent until they could state that a sat isfactory result had been attained. before he asked for any informationof the partie ' ular state of the negotiations. One word with respect to what had fall- I , en from the honorable member front Mon trose. Her Majesty required the attention ! of the House to the increase in the esti- t Mates which provided for the' efficiency of; the military and naval services. Ile could well understand that with the increased possessions adds couture abroad and the consequently increased demands on the services of our military and naval forces in every part of the world. there might be reasons for the increase of the estimates' even at a season of profound peace, and when nothing threatened on any side ; and' he trusted that it was on these grounds, and not on account of anything in the as pect of affairs, with reference to the UM led States, that Her Majesty's government had made this increase. He, for his part, had fors= e time Thought thdt the efficiency of the military force of: this country at its present amount was too much tried, and that too m uch was demand-' ed from that force.- ' His second question was this, I ler Majesty stated that for several years a des- i olating and •sangoinary Warfare had aflliet s 'l ed the States of the Rio de la Plata, and it was farther stated that Her Majesty was endeavoring to effect the pacification of . those Statea. ' ne_(Lord Julio Russell) understood.that the endeavor to effect a pacification had lien prosecuted by means of warlike meass tires, and he fioniewhav doubted whether that was the right mode of proceeding. It was true, it was stated, that the etinuneree of all nations had been interrupted. But:: it was farther stated that “acts of great bar barity had been:committed unknown to the • practice of a civilicd people." . Acts of barbarity were certainly very dreadful things but he doubted whether it was wise in her Majesty's government to state- that as a ground of a forcible intervention. They had heard—though he s 'mild not name the Countries in which they had taken pLe.,- burtney naa ticard - ot t eadful nets of bar- , barity in other pa o he world ; and cer tainly he' had n he rd it proposed by any wise statesman t there should be any in tervention in those countries. The ques tion which he had to submit to the right ' hon. baronet, was, whether he proposed to lay on the table any papers explanatory'of the ground on which her Majesty's govern ment thought it necessary to interfere with the warfare 'which had occurred in the States of the Rio de la Plata , SIR Roui - arr PEEL.--With referende to the question just put by the noble lord, I beg to say, that not foreseeing that he s'yo,uld put it, I aiwnot at present prepared to give, him an answer, awl have therefore to crave diet he will postpone his question until) ,another time. Ott the subject of the Oregon territory, I have to state.that a pro posal was made by Mr. Buchanan, .(See retary of State) with the authority of the Vresident of the IT. States, to, Mr. Paken ham, and the proposal so made suggested a division of the territory. Whether or not the proposal ought to have been accepted I cannot say. Mr. Pakenham thought that the terms proposed were so little likely to be acceptable, that he did not feel himself warranted in transmitting the proposal to the government at home; and_ on signify ing this to Mr. Buchanan, the latter intim:- I diately stated that the proposal was with drawn,. 'Phis is the state of the negotia tions at present, so far as I informed, re- I specting the proposal submitted by Mr. Buchanan.. Lhave the highest opinion of.

TilE ASPECT OF THE NEWS From the National Intelligencer We have looked carefully through the English Newspapers on the subject of Or ego'', and attentively considered what has been expressed by leading personS in both 'Houses of Parliament, and we confess we do not see much change in the aspect of things, nor any change that can be regard ed as favorable. It appears to us that the English Ministry stand where they stood some mmiths ago, in the respective decla rations of Lord ABERDEEN and Sir ROBERT PEEL; and we apprehend that an impres— sion will be made still more unfavorable on the. English Ministry and English mind when it . shall he seen that the government of the United States has repeatedly reject ed what can hardly fail to be regarded as terms fora fair and honoyable termination of the disptite.. We" may add, as another circumstance ealetilated to cause deep regret, that the re marks made by the President, in his mes sage aLthe Opening of the Session, respect ing the conduct of FRANCE, have produced just the effect :Which discreet persons fore saw—nainely, a degree of astonishment at the President's language, and an impres sion unfavorable on the whole, as we great ly fear, to the general , character and con duct Odle present American Gevernment.

We have no doubt that if England will couple with her proposed repeal of the Corn Laws, a proposition to relax her claim to a part of Oregon, that the whole system of protection to American industry will be gladly; laid at her feet. For this paltry - consideration, our rulers arc willing to sacrifice all the great interests of the country, and make the U. States a mere tributary to English power and wealth and ambition. All they ask is the honor of having acquired a few leagues of barren territory, and they arc ready to adopt a policy that will make the whole Union one wide spread scene of ruin, and render us a nation of bankrupts. • What a glorious consummation !---Lancaster Union. thiRIOUS AFFRAY WITH INDIANS.r-A seri ous affray took place recently at Musko day, Wisconsin, between a patty of whites and a party of Winnebago Indians, and which resulted in the death of four of the Indians. A small party of the Winnebago tribe of Indians stole a canoe belonging to a white. The owner of the canoe, in coin panY with several of his neighbors, pur sued the Indians and gave them a pretty severe drubbing. The Indians rallied, to what number not known, and met the whites again; who had secured a party of about forty, both sides provided with fire arms. Upon meeting, the. whites sent a messen ger with a flag of truce, who was received with tokens of menace and defiance; the Indians then fired, wounding two whites, which upon being returned by the whites, resulted either in the death or. wounding of four Indians. Thus ended the contest.— An application was made to the Legisla ture to legalize the organization of a com pany of horse, which - .the citizens had rais ed for their own protection, fearing a gener al attack by the tribe.

Journal says:—“The whole country is buried beneath an avalanche of snow, which fell from the clouds, princi pally during the. morning of Sunday, the fifteenth inst. The snow storm com menced Saturday evening about an hour before midnight, and those who were up to attend the Railroad trains at 4 o'clock next morning, state there was then some six inches of snow on the ground. • Be tween that hour and nine o'clock, the snow fell so rapidly that it had accumulated to the depth of two feet! A heavier fall of snow, within the same time was never known. After oor 10 o'clock the storm abated, and by one had ceased nearly alto gether. The entire depth of snow which fell within a periotrof 14 hours, was not less than 28 inches, (which is our measurement) Whilst most persons estimate it at two feet and a half. This is an average of 2 niches per hour during the whole Storm, whilst in ordinary storms the fall is not over an inch per hour. We arc told that during the thickest of the s torm, after daylight, the snow fell seven inches in an hour and a half! We cannot vouch for this as a fact but it must haVe come down at very near this rate at the height of the storm. OCEAN STEANSIIIPS.—We learn that a contract has been entered into by the Gov ernment of the U. States with the Ocean Steam-Navigation Company, chartered in this State, for the establishment of .a line of steam shins, to run between New York and Europe. A vessel is to take her departure twice in each month, for Cowes and 43remen. The Government is to pay $lOO,OOO per annum for the con veyance of the mail, &c. &c. The vessels arc to be of a not less than 4400 tons bur then, .and they are to make their voyages with speed not less than that of the Cunard line. • The arrangements for building are in active progress, and it is expected that the first will hereaav to start on the Ist of Januarv,-1847.—A T .

One of the slaves was being whipped for some of . fence, when the remainder, seventy in num ber, stopped work, and rushed on their o verseers; with the cry of Now let's kill them all—liberty or death !" A number of the white persons were wounded with their hoes. The slaves from an adjoining plantation came to the assistance of their masters, and did efficient service in pro tecting their lives. A number of them fled to the woods, but this remainder were se cured and placed in confinement. The fu gitives will doubtless• be semi overtaken, as a:party were in pursuit of them. JOHN JACOB Aston.—The . following is given as the estimate of Mr. Astor's im mense wealth, in a bookof the "Rich Men of New York." It says, "that those know ing his affairs best place it at 630,000,000 and some as high even as $50,000,000.-- His income, on a moderate estimate, must be $2,000,000 a year, or $166,000 a month; which is about $11,500 a week, $5,7.00 a day, $240 an hour, and $1 a minute. Mr. Astor has made a donation of $350,000 for a library in New York, the interest of which is to be expended in employing agents to purchase books, and to the erection of a building." ANOTHER ATTEMPT AT BHIHEHV.-Mr. Knapp, a member of the House of Repre sentatives of the Ohio Legislature, on the 16th inst., charged George W. Holbrook, of Allen county, with an attempt to invade his integrity as a representative of the peo ple. He charged him with an attempt to bribe him to the support of a project for the erection of a new county, by the offer of town property in the county town and lands in the vicinity of the town, at a mere ly nominal price. Resolutions for the ar raignment ofthe - offender before the Mouse were referred to a select committee of five. The SENATE of the State of VUTGINIA, being asked to give its assent. to certain Resolutions intended to operate upon the Senate of the U. States in favor of the 'No tice' to Great Britain, acted with a dignity and independence worthy of the ancient fame of that Commonwealth. The Reso lutions coining up for consideration on Sat urday were, after a protracted debate, or dered to lie on the table by a vote of 18 to 10.

Poreir,n News. rl:7 - With a view of putting our readers in pos session of the more important iterits of EtiriMenn intelligence, brought out by the Cambria. we have devoted more than usual space to the comments of the-London Press and the debates in the Engiish Parliament upon the Oregon question. The news is generally hailed. as pacific., and as such can not fail to be in the highest degree gratifying to the friends of peace and humanity: It will bel seen that the public feeling in England at the time of the sailing of the Cambria, was altogether dis posed to the preservation of peace and an amica ble settlement of the Oregon controversy. The Queen's speech upon the opening of 'Parliament, the remarks of Sir Rnbert Peel and Lord John Russell,during debates upon the difficulties of the two countries, all breaths spirit of conciliation, and the prevailing opinion was that the differem ces could and would be settled without a resort to the dread alternative of %var. Intelligence how ever, had not reached England of th positive and unequivocal rejection by our Government of all offers to dispose of the matter by arbitration, and it is feared by many that the reception of this in telligence may work a revulsion of feel;ng—ai,st tend to dissipate these favorable symptons.-- There is no intelligence of interest from the con iibent, save the accounts of the debates in the French Chamber upon the exceptionable and un called for reflections of President Polk upon the French Government in his last annual message.— In Ireland the Repeal agitation is continued by o'. 'Connell, who was attending public meetings and harranguing large crowds of his countrymen. The Pennsylvania Inquirer of yesterday morn ing says:—"The private intelligence from Wash ington in relation to the Oregon question, is deci dedly pacific. We have seen letters from gentle men likely to be well informed, who express the opinion that an amicable and satisfactory arrange ment will be determined upon, and in a great meas ure consummated before the adj mrnment of the present session of Congress.

We presume there never was a more humiliating spec ta.tle of national hyjmerisy and deception than that developed by dictate foreign arrivals. While at home, the Administration has beeen most loud and boisterous in its claims to the "whole of Ore. con or none," and, througll'its representatives and presses, been denouncing, as influenced by British feelings,'all who have dared to raise their voices against the reckless eflint to involve the country in an unnecessary and disastrous War. to appease the clamors of political deniagogues=at the very time that these sweeping denunciations cif our best citizens arc falling fast and thick from the lips Of pensioned agents of Government—we find officers high in the confidence of the Administration plot ting a most infamou4 "bargain and Pale with her Majesty's Ministers—proposing, in plain words, to piti-cha sc' a title to Oregon, hitherto declared to be "indisputable. - the condition of the bond to be realized in the sacrifice of American Industry to the grasping avarice of British capitalists.— 'rho ports of our country are to he thrown open to the reception of the products of foreign pauper la bor, our Markets to be glutted with French and English importations, and the glorious equivalent for all to b - S. nothing More or less than a few feet of barren territitory, coasting the far off shores of the Pacific.

Mr. Gibbon's and Judge Conrad. tr-The bitter invective of Mr. Gin- BONS, made during the course of the debate on the Right of Way question in the Sen ate, and published in the last Star, was un derstood to have a reference to Judge Cox- RAD, of Philadelphia, one of the writers for the North American—the paper in . which Mr: G. was so malignantly assailed. Im mediately after the publication of Mr. Gib bon's invective, it became rumored that Judge Conrad had tendered him a challenge per Charles J. Biddle, Esq. and that it had been declined. On Tuesday last the subject was brought before the Senate by Mr. Sullivan, Who moved the appOintment of a committee to investigate the matter, which, after some discussion, was acceded to, yeas 21, nays 6 1 —and Messrs. Sullivan, Chapman, and Bigler appointed the committee. During the consideration of the resolution, Mr. Gibbons was called up, and in reply to a question of Mr. Sullivan he stated that he had received no challenge, but that he had received N. verbal communication asking for his views on the subject of duelling, and whether he would accept a challenge, if otrered. My views (said Mr. G.) have been freely expressed upon this subject, and are well known in Philadelphia—nor do I now hesitate to declare that I could not, as a. husband, as a father, or as a citi zen, peril my life in such, a manner. ILt-The U. S. Gazette of Wednesday contains a caustic card from Judge Con rad in which after'detailing the above facts he denounces Mr. Gibbons in the bitterest terms. Tho Right of Way.
