On the whole, the news is perhaps the
most important and gratifying that has ever
been steamed across the Atlantic. The
pmspects of peace are bright. As the Ame
rican President and Sir Robert Peel both
agree upon tLe question of Free Trade, and
are each laboring to blot Horn the systems
of their respective Governments, the prin

outlived the barbarous ages which gave
them birth; we may hope that they will
agree nt to disagree about Oregon, and
thus seal their administrations by the dou

Bad lasting peace to man.
TIIK MESSAGE IN FRANCE
-1 he effect of. the message upon Fiance,
onr “ancient ally” has hern looked for with
a good deal of interest. With the excep
tion of the .fcumal dfs Debates , which be-
V ugs to the “ cordial understanding” party
” England of M. Guizot, the reception
*.l t.ie message by the French press is
tiicndly. 1 lie JournaldesDebates'™ a little
savage upon the “ arrogant message” and
declares that Mr. Polk is not “animated by
a spirit of conciliation.” It thinks howev
er that war docs not necessarily follow from
Mi. Polk’s bellicose tone, and asks, “ how
often have tire different powers in Europe
ucen as near hostilities and escaped them.’*
We make an extract or two, to show how
(he Journal is astonished at the new tone in
which the American Government speaks to
V'urope. The Journal has received an an
swer to the question “ u-ho is Junes K
Polk ?”
It says:
“Hismessage is without a precedent, not
merely as regards the manner in which the
Oregon question is treated, but on account oi
the general tone which characterizes it. Up
to the present time, or at least up to the time
<i General Jackson, it was customary in the
messages to speak in a defcrefilial tone to the
European powers. The Presidents weie
men wno had seen Europe, and who duly ap
preciated i he power of the great slates of the
t:ki continent. In.those solemn documents,!
concocted principally for the multitude, they
show'ed themselves proud of the republican
institutions, they made a pompous pamde ol
the prosperity suits egale, (the favorite term
of (lie country,) but they carefully avoided any
thing winch might be regarded at the other
wide <f the Atlantic as vain ami lidiculous
bravadoes. They exhorted the nation, rom
iormabiy to the last proclamation: f Washing
ton, to confine itself to domestic, alfiirs, and
not loaim at other conquests than those which ■
Mie accomplished so honorably, as well as
■profitably;over the wild and uncultivated
’ands at its disposal. Mr. Polk, very diffbr
i it from Ins-illustrious predecessors, reduces
hunselt to the level of toe rough cultivators
•i the valley u! the Ohio, i:i whose opinion !
Europe is a collection ol degraded beings,
‘gMMiimf, uniter the weight cf monarchical
.overnment, and which it would he no d.ffi.
Vu l matter lor tho forces of the Union to
overcome. It is impossible to explain the
ioipru ‘cnt language contained in the Presi
dent’s message in afiy other manner. But
England is not the only pou*er to which flic
arrogant message a|rpfies. France is like
wijerougnly handled with respect to the
Texas aHair. France is reproached with
‘wishing to have Texas made an independent
state, insteadnf going to swell the American
federation, and the incorporation of Texas is
represented as a victory over the European
monarchies. The message reminds ‘France
that she was an ally formally of the United
States, that she has a common interest witU
the l uion-Mhat of the freedom ol the seas.
France is, in truth an advocate for maritime
liberty; but this liberty was not in question
in the aria rof Texas. France has been a
t>e ul and powerful ally of the United States.
•She has ever applauded the increase of the
prosperity and power of America : but that
M .a n--i<n.i ;1 at she should (he U.
S’ate* when i iey gave to the
spirit of conquest, when, by a procedure ever
to be condemned, they took from Mexico one
ol tla finest provinces to appropriate it to their
own use, and lor the express purpose of re
establishmg irhtil the Mexicans had so nobly
abolished — viz', the infamous slave-trade. —
France, although not republican, is not the
less devoted toihe cause of liberty. She loves
justice, and could not see America openly
violate the rights of men without feeling pain
fully hurt. Apropos to that subject, Mr. Polk
vxptesses himself in terms of the most de
testable hypocricy, for in reading that docu
ment, any person ignorant of the real facts of
the case wo jld imagine that it was the United
States, and not Mexico, which had right
to complain. France, then, was acting ano
biepafrt when she negotiated with lire view
to pot a period to those encroachments which
nothing could justify.”
*****
The National says—
“We want time and space, to appreciate,
tn a becoming manner, the clear, lirm, and
decided language of Mr. Polk. ft\V e will c<’U
tent oorselvea to-day with statm? that the
measures proposed by the Present, from
the abrogation of the convention of 1823 to
the establishment k of military posts clearly
indicate the resolution of the American gov
ernment to occupy the contested territory r.ot
temporarily, but permanently. The English
press, which affects to find the President's
message more moderate than it expected, will
no doubt explain to us what more it had to
dread than the formal declarations—lst, that
the right of America over Oregon was abso
lute, and that she was determined, if neces
aary, to assert it by the force of arms ; 2nd,
that no compromise is practicable; 3d, that
the temporary convention must expire in a
yew; 4tb, finally, that the soldiers, laws, and
post office es the United States shall extend
to the contested territory, and render it here
after a truly American land. M. Guizot and
his theory of the K iropean balance of power
appl.ed to the American continent, will find
it difficult to triumph over the principle which
Mr. Polk means to uphold with regard to
Europe.”
******
The Siecle observes, that the “messages
eCthe Presidents of the American Union
exceed in general all the limits assigned to
documents of a similar nature ip the Euro
pean states. Mr. Polk, whose position is
truly difficult, has enlarged the practice of
his predecessors, and the twelve columns
of our journal would scarcely suffice to re
publish the detailed exposition which he
(nought proper to make of bis policy . We
shall confine ourselves at-present to indicate,
the principal features of ihat message, in
which all Europe, and in particular France
and England, have been rather rudely cast
bt the fetof|he United States. It vt ffi be
seen frcd%fre.perusal of the President’s
.X&tfjk'’ a se, *to£.Qoap\s br

pait ol an arbisra or, to which lie aspired in
the contest raised oh the Oregon territory.
Never, says Mr. Polk, will the United
States submit this question to the arbitration
of third |>ower. The President, after hav
ing given an historical statement of the ne
gotiations, commenced by his predecessors,
•leelares that England, after having refused
j all the proposals made to her, and not hav-.
ing pn-q*osed in return dny that were accept
able, the negotialioris had closed lor the
preseht, Mr. Polk does not fefuse to enter
into a compromise. He declares himself
disposed to follow in this respect the in
structions given him by the Congress; but
atlhe same lime he declares himself deter
mined to disselve tiie convention of 1826.
by virtue ot which a joint occupation has
been held, and to solicit from the Congress
certain measures to extend immediately the
i protection of ihe American laws to the'colo
nists of the Oregon-. The joint occupation
ceasing after a notice of twelve months, the
question must then be solved by forc9 or bv
diplomacy. But it is difficult to affirm that
the Congress ■will sanction Mr. Polk’s pro
posal, although the democratic party reckons
a strong majority in the chamber of repre
sentatives, and a majority of six votes in the
Senate.” *
It is not often that vve meet with senti
ments like the following from the New
Hampshire Gazelle, so far Norih in New
England. When we do, they are next to
, certain to be found in a Democratic paper.
I As we expected, the indignation and iegret mani
fested by ihc Portsmouth Journal towards Mr. Ad
ams. lust week, on account cf the sucech made bv
the laiier upon Oregon and ifre to
have died away. We, si,ld the edifor haWlot thou
got Johnny’s ••Q,,” (cue,) and we knew the tone of
the paper towards tne o<J gentleman would ch,ine
as soon as sufficient time hr.d elapsed lor the whis
per of a word in the editor’s ear. The editor has re
ceived the cat, 1 and let her out of tha bag,—sayrg,
vii uiallv, that Mr. Adams and his abolition co-aJ
jutor, Cddings, tire not such mad-mcn after ad
that they do not go lor the whole of Oregon for the
sake of Oregon, but with the hope of getting the toom
into t> ouhle !
‘1 he Jonrnul speaks of the Southern coast being
“wholly unprotecied,” and snys,'that in case ol a
war wtih Great Briiain, the war steaimrs can carry
“b ack regiments from the West Indus” up the riv
ers “wlieie the s!ave population greatly predomi
nates ; and a negro regiment with arms in iheir
hands, and arms lo distribute to runaway slaves,
would carry dismay and terror into hearis of the
chivalrous sons of ihe South.” This we un
derstand to be the “little irijdnveniriice” i 0 which
Messrs. Adams ond Giddings wouid put our South
ern brethren ! Oae would drift, on a reference to
the ureal philan'hropic profusions in past columns
of the Journal, that hs editor would revolt atlt is idea,
and administer a rebuke becoming Ihese })rofessiorix.
But what does he do, on learning that sued is the
position ol these gentlemen? Why, he drops the
pen raised to rebuke them, and locks on wnn com
| placem-y, as nmcii as to'say, ‘iet thein work, we will
not bottier ourselfto say whether it be statesman like
and patrio'ic.”
These-are fair references from the remarks of the
Journal, norwitlisianding'it afleiis to believe, like
Mr. Adams, that war will not come, by our giving
the “notice for terminating Ihe joint occupancy ol
Oregon,”ar.d stationing a military forca there forth
with to guard the territory to latitude 54 40.
We do not mean to.say that we would surrender
an inch of onr territory to Britisn threats, or from
fear that cannotv hails will be throw n at. its; we do
hot entile uniter that class of patriots, pot we oo
pot st agani.-t he democratic patty’s taking upj.
Q,. Adams, and enfolding him m their arms, because
ha goes for Oregon for the sake of “putiisnmg the
South!” Are the grounds of John Q,. Adams amt
Giddtugs, of Oh'o, national/ Who believes ii? No
man whojees into the game they are playing. JNay,
the ecluor of the Journal confesses they ate not. WV
a.e as since* e a friend to Oiegou as can be found:;
and we-ftive long used our endeavors in our liumlile 1
capacity to throw such l'ucts before otir readers ns
we could gather to give them informal ion as to ijin
justice ofour title to the territory, and our position
cannot be mistaken; —but we express our honest
cottvic ion in saving that, John Q-. Adams will never
give proof of a disposition to redeem the confidence
which the true friends of Oregon are placing in him,
so long as he entertains, his present feelings towards
(he people of the Soulli. We have not a very good
ojitnion of the patriotism of a man who would make
the Oregon question a pretext for it war with Great
Britain for the purpose of being revrnged on the
South: The true friends of Oregon and the Union
will despise such co-operators, as at least capable of
exerting their influence against their own country,
after it had hecome involved in war. •.
THE TARIFF.
The Hon. Charles Hudson, (whig) tnern
ber of Congress from Massachusetts, writes
to the Worcester Spy, that, in his opinion,
the fate of the Tariff is sealed. To save it
in the House, lie says, ‘‘we must have every
whig vote and about 36 of the democratic
votes, and I cannot reckon more than 25.
In the Senate, if the two Texan Senators,
who will be on befoie the subject is acted
upon, be free trade men, as they doubtless
will be, there is no hope of arresting it there.
I think, therefore, that we have got to sub
mit to democratic free trade.”
As Dow, Jr. says, so mote it be. But, as
the editor of tiie Worcester Palladium
says,—“our “hopes are not so strong as his
[Mr. H.\j fears.”
BARQUE BASHAW OF BOSTON ABAN
DONED AT SEA.
The barque Bashaw , Myers, from Bos
ton tor New Orleans, with a cargo of Ice,
was abandoned ai sea on the 21st instant, in
lat. 32, lon.'7S, 40. She had been previous
ly dismasted in |a gust of wind off Rarrys
lord Reel on the 15th, and leaked badly.—
She had 12 feet water in her hold when
abandoned. Capt. Myers and crew were
taken off the wreck on the 2lst, ond arrived
at this port last evening in the Sweedish
brig Gotha from Algiers.
A gang of burglars, numbering some three
or four, set about enterinanhe drug store of
Wra. A. HajMWfelkL)Mfe,(>n Saturday night
last, with the intent ojfcaUijing It. He heard i
the noise, went silently loaded
pistol, and as one put in his hand to
.raise the Window,inrough a pane, the glass
xis which he had.'bifblren, Mr. H. placed the
mouth of his pistol, within a few inches ofthe
fellow’s arm, fired 1 and the burglars ran
away. He was traced by his blood next
morning, for his arm was badly shattered and,
arrested where he was found in bed. Two
others were found with h:m—one of them
ran away, the other was arrested. They re
ported themselves from New Orleans, and
had gone over thereto attend the races.—
They are said to te very genteel-looking
chaps, indeed rather ou the exquisite order—
whiskered and mustached in the latest and
most approved fashion, and dressed “within
an inch of'liieir lives.” The wounded one
says his name is John Hunt.— N. Ot Delta.
Judge Garland. —Of this fugitive Judge
the New York correspondent ot the Boston
Post—with what truth we know not—says:
‘*l yesterday [saw a gentleman who left
Havana about three weeks since, who in
forms me that he saw Mr Rice Garland, of
Louisiana, the forging judge, at the Theatre
a Tacon tfe night that he left. His honor
appeared to be very happy and contented, and
was veiy warmly engaged in discussing the
Oregon question. He was decidedly of opin-*
ion that the order of notice should not pass,
and offered to bet odds that it would be de
feated in the Senate. It was understood that
be had made up his mind to make Cuba his
permanent residence. The celebrated Isle
of Pines Would be a very fitting retreat for
him. His escape from New Oilcans, it was
understood, wa* conuived at by persons of
some standing in society.
Correspondence of the “Columbus Times.”
Washikgtok, D. C., Jan. 23, 1816.
Dear ISir :—lt now seems to be admitted on
all hands, that the resolutions of Mr. Allen*
in the Senate, that England be
thaw the joini occupation
taken up and passedTnjfffiat as
of next month, it iepredict
will ner the
yeat’s notice to quit, and having [done so, im
mediately repeat her claims, from the muzzles
of her cannon alongour whole coast! Should’
this prediction be verified, there will be such
a rallying in “ihe land of the free” as was
never yet seen. The war thbs commenced!
would scarcely terminate with the tearingol
i he red cross of St. George from the walls of
Quebec--it'would hardly be permitted to float
any where upou this coutilfent; and if, by
British machinations the poor deluded Mexi
cans shall be induced lo unite in the contest
against us, our arms would soon arouse from
their deceitful dreams the modern denizens
of the city of tiie Montezuma®, and Peace
would not again fold her white wings over its
roofs utail-every dome and spire was decked
with the “star spangled banner/’ A war
thus commenced, would urge even our Qua
kers to the fight, and to convert their broad
brims iulo cannon-wadding and their corn
brooms into pikes, sponges, and rammers !
In 6uch a fight there wouid be no holding
back by any party—the strife would be
among our parties, to do the most and fight
the bravest lor our country and the cause of
free institutions.
Mr. Calhoun, I believe, begins to despair
of any movement on the part of England that
will enable our government to get back on
the negotiating track; and I think he begins to
doubt cf any good result from the procrasti
nating policy, even if it could be carried out.
The Oregon subject has not been alluded
to in the Senate but once since Mr. Allen in
troduced Ills resolution declaratory of the in
tentions of our government in regard to the
interference of European /ations with tho
affairs of this continent, Jctc. The subject
came up while a
bill for the building
steamers was before Jhe Senate.” Mr. Allen
and Mr. Sevier desired its postponement un
til it was ascertained whether the re3o- j
iulion giving the notice to England was to
pass or not —lor tflhe resolution was to have
the go by, they felt no disposition to vote ap
propriations for the increase of the navy.—
However, the consideration of the bill was
only .post poned until'next Tuesday—a majori
ly of the Senators deeming the steamers ne
cessary, without reference to war or peace.
During the Inst four or five days the Ore
gon debate has been hung up in the House,
in order to give the contest between the two
Florida men (Cabell and Brocfeenbrough) a
place on the lapis. From the present state of
the contest, I am induced to believe that 8.,
the democrat, will gel the seat. He shows
piet’y clearly that a majijhy of the voles were
cast for him. uj w proposed that Con
gress send them the contest
over again. B. think/the offe* not so very
generous on the part If C., who lias drawn
bis ten m fifteen hundred dollars mileage and
eight dollars a day until the present time
and now liniisout that ho never was elected
by the people tb come here at all !
it was announced last night, at 10 o’clock,
by Telegraph, that the steamer due from Eng
land had arrived in New York. To.duy it
turns‘out that tiie announcement was a lie.
It is further stated that rhe news came here
from New York by express and ‘telegraph.—
If that be true, the trick doubtless originated
among those pests, the brokers. Speaking o[
brokers, reminds me of bankers; and I would
just hint to you that these vermin are nerv
concocting a great and audacious game,
by which they intend to get the control
of the public treasure-; and they are setting
every engine -at work to accomplish their un
dertaking. Already they have cotnmencerP
buying up and snbsbdizing presses to comt
out against tiie Independent Treasury. The
N. \ .Journal of Commerce, that has been fbr
some time past laboring to gain a character
for honesty, has recently shaken hands with
the ban kites, and is now Tabid against this
great measure of the democracy.
The nomination of Judge Woodward, of Pa
to be Judge of the Supreme Court Os U. S.
has been rejected by the Senate. I Jparn that
all the wings and five democrats voted against
the nomination—but I cannot vouch for the
truth of the statement.
The borders of the snow storm, (6f which
you will read in the papers to the north of
this 1 ) reached Washington—the snow fell
here about five inches deep ; and for the last
three days, all sorts of things upon runners
have been passing and repassing through
Pennsylvania Avenue, laden with all the va
rieties and classes of the human family. The
jingling of bells and the “merry laugh of
girls” reminds me of a northern city, good
sleighing, and a pleasant moon lightnighi.

Harris Counts’ Ga., Jan. 25,1846.
Messrs. Forsyth and Jdhnsttini
In these times of scarcity of provisions in
many parts of qur conntry, occasioned by the
drouth the {fast simmer, it may not be un
interesting to your readers to know that a
vast amount of corn rutty be Baved by feeding
hogs on cotton ‘sefed. Being impressed with
the belief, that a knowledge Os this might
prove of incalculable benefit to ‘farmers and
planters generally, and thereby to all Other
classes of consumers has induced me lo send
you this communication, which, if you think
proper you can publish.
I have been feeding my stock of on
them (which consists of some fifty or sixty
head) with scarcely any thing else, ever
since early last spring, and they are now in
good growing order.
This will no doubt be incredible to the
minds of some Sceptics, though incredible as
it may appear, it is‘nevertheless true, and in
my opinion only wants the proof of practical
demonstration on a more extended seaie to
cause it to be unitersallyadopted infhe South
ern States.
As far as my observation extends in iela
tion to the opinion of others of cottonseed in
their cnitle state, it is that when eaten in
any considerable quantity they will kill hog 6,
this may be quite true, but when properly
prepared they have answered an excellent
purpose, as far as I have‘tried them,, and I
have the testimony of my friend S. K. Gioll,
of Talbot county, to'corroborate the above
statemetfl, who has tried it mdeh more exten
sively than I have.
I prepare them by boiling theth, and mix
ing salt enough with them to render them
palatable, and give them as much as they will
eat. I bdii them in a box that holds enough
for tftree or four days use, the bottom of which
is made of sheet-iron and placed upon ah arch
so constructed as to protect the side's ftom
the fire which is placed under it.

TO SOUTHERN AND WES
TERN MERCHANTS.
WE respectfully ask your attention te the fo!-
lowirg reasons why you should make your
purchases of goods in ihe New York Market, very
traukly coufc&siog it isotit desire that you should do
so.
It must be admitted that from 53 to 60 per cent, of
all the foreign merchandise which * imported into this
country is received in the port of New \oik. -Of
course there is here tbe opportunity for the widest
selection. The stock of goods on han Jin this city is
at all times, larger than the united stocks of all the
other Eastern cities. It is equally certain that New
York is the chief and great depot for the manufactures
of the Eastern aud Middle States, and of ‘tha
ducts of .he Western.
The construction of the Ohio and Illinois Canals
is making a very great change in the commercial
routes of the traffic of the Great West.
The prices of goods in Ncv York, by reason of its
immsnse supplies and the consequent competition,
ate necessarily lower, and credits are extended on as
liberal a scale as at anv other point.
The Merchants, Manufacturers and Importes,
whose addresses are subjoined, are prepared to prove
the truth of these positions, and will be happy to dis
pose of their goods on tkkms which will verify all
(hat is asserted here.
