THE OREGON NOTICE PASSED. ,', .
It will be seen that the Senate has at last recorded
its vote oa the Oregon Question, in favor of authori
zing the President, at his discretion, to give tho no-
lice required by the Treaty of 1827, to the British
Government, for the abrogation of the joint occupan
cy. The Resolution as passed, was offered by Sena
tor Johssow, of Maryland, but is the identical Pream
ble and Resolution of Mr. Cwttendki, minus the
proviso. . The Resolution now goes back to the House,
those passed by that body having been entirely thrown
eat. - . I"1 .: Y ." .-' ; ' "''"'-'
The final vote was rery strong: 40 to 14. If we
rid to the 40, and take from the 14, the three gentle
men who are opposed to the notice in any form, the
TesuU would appear to be, that, oat of 54 Senators
nresent 43 Intimated distinctly their opionion, that
the Oregon dispute ought to be compromised. -
The Tote will be hailed "all ever the Union, as
highly auspicious to the preservation of tbe peace of
the country. -- ' - " -
' MR. HAXWOOP'S SPEECH.
In this celebrated Speech, although he very inge-
n'raosly labors to prove an impossibility to wit, that
Mr." Polk has been consistent on the Oregon ques
tion there is still much that is "wise, patriotic, and
noble very much that does honor to the heart and
the head f the talented Senatorf
. We are glad to see him state asene-reason wby
he cannot be expected te'eontend for the 54 40 limit,
that he represents, in part, a Whig State---a State,
which in her last general vote, gave Mr. Clat a ma
jority. - This is the true doctrine. When the cool
judgment of the State is well ascertained, the Sena
tor could not do otherwise than respect it. . We can
not doubt, that the action of tha Senator will be equal
ly1 patriotic, when he records his vote on tbe Sub
Treasury scheme, which has been so often condemn
ed by his native Stale." 'His vote on the Tariff, also,
we cannot doubt, will be governed by the same high
and patriotic consideration. '
.. r,iiA:HAPPY'MAN. . ;
Much has been written, and said, and sung, about
happiness. Some have supposed it not of easjr attain
ment, be. Ihe.slow reward of a long life ef virtue.
One Poet has rashly said' Virtue alone is happiness
below." These searchers after " the greatest good,"
have been, for ages,' groping in the dark have be
wildered themselves, and left millions of miserable
wretches to lire on without pleasure, and die without
hope.-. The last " Standard" has it all in a nut-shell
in a paragraph, that ought to be entitled " Happi
ness made easy." Tbe woe-begone wretch, has only
" to take by the hand," as the "Standard" did last
week,!" that unflinching Republican, Col. John H.
Wheeler, who was on his way-from Washington Ci
ty to his residence in Catawba, and the great work
is accomplished. -After the announcement of this op
eration, so very delightful in its process, so beatific in
its effects, was' made In the " Standard," there was
an unusual excitement in the City of Oaks, and a
most eager anxiety to seize the Kappyfying hand of
the Colonel, v. But he had gone, and tbe victims of
dolor were left to their waitings. A pilgrimage to
Beatties Ford, "to shake that hand," is all that is
left them now ; and to some of the " poorer classes,"
" hoc labor, hie opus est," as was once said by this
smiling Captain of the Catawba.",- Oh ! why, was
not the advent of this honest and faithful son of
North Carolina" announced to the public in time?
How many happy faces, wreathed in smiles, would
have met us during the week, oa which care baa been
ploughing his furrows for years? Bui we have one
consolation, however; he will distribute his blessings
elsewhere, aud many a forlorn wretch by the way-
side," will have hit pathway fighted np as the mighty
Thesaural worthy shall graciously extend to him hit
miraculous band, and bid hinv4 happy. , .
By the way, speaking of guns why should not all
the great principles of democracy be represented in
the field by Gubernatorial CanuTdateaT They have
Leak, who stops suddenly at 49 degree; They have
-Shepard, who plants ''hit foot boldly on 54 40, and will

ORGANIZATION CONCERT--ACTioN. 1
Vhilewe behoid with' amuseraentthe diticord and
quarreling of -the Loco Foco in their strife for a Gu
bernatorial Candidate, We should not lose tight of the
necessity of bua union, and perfect, systematic organ
ization, to ensure success. , .The Whigs should stand
aloof from this family squabble, sot caring which, or
whether both, ensure to themselves the glory of be
ing the ? great immolated," in Angust next. . But
we should exert ourselves to secure a most thorough
triumph for oar glorious Candidate, and theimpemh-
able Whig cause. Nor let us sink into apathy, and
view with listless indifference, the workings and ma
noeuvring of pur opponents, regardless of our own
safety. . However much they may be divided among
themselves at this particular juncture, yet they are
united on one thing, and that is,' the prostration and
total discomfiture of the Whig party, and the final
.overthrow of our cherished measures and principles,
by which we have stood under to many discouraging
circumstances. .They are as dear to us ever, and as
iudispensable to the happiness and well-being of our
beloved couutry. ' Let no man then, stand aloof from
exerting his whole influence in behalf of our gallant
Gsabax, and in doing all he can, to effect a uniform,
persevering, and efficient organization of the Whig
party throughout the State. Remember, lhat by
union, Uie most humble individual, by adding to the
weight of the, whole has bis value and his use ; out
of it, the greatest talents are wholly unserviceable to
the public. Bubkc utters the following truths in re
ference to Organization, which it may be well for
those to reflect upon, who i either object, or are indif
ferent to thrtneans of orgaiiuaLonolofhuJking their
own principles operative among the rJaJesipf men:
While men are linked together, they easily and
speedily commnnicale the alarm of any evil design.
They are enabled to fathnm it with eommbu couusel,
and oppose it with united strength. Whereas, when
they lie dispersed, without concert, order, or discipline,
communication it uncertain, counsel difficult, and re
sistance impracticable. When men are not acquaint
ed with each other's talents, not all practised in their
mutual habitudes and disposition in joint efforts in bu
siness, no personal coufidence, no friendship, no com
mon interests, subsisting .among them, it is evidently
impossible that they can act a public part with uni
formity, perseverance, or efficiency. No man who
w not inflamed by vain glory , into enthusiasm, can
flatter bimsejf, that his single, unsupported, desultory,
unsystematic endeavors, are of power to defeat the
subtle designs and united cabals of ambitious citizens.
When bad men combine, the good must associate ;
else they will fall, oue by one, an unpitied sacrifice
in a contemptible struggle.! '.
THE RIVAL CANDIDATES.
; Mr. Lkak addresses a Letter to Mr SBcraan, thro
the ." North Carolinian" of the 18th inst of which
the following is the cream :
. "I propose that our relative claims be submitted to
the Democratic Slate Central Committee," as ap
pointed by the President of the late Convention, with
the understanding that they meet in person in the
City of Raleigh, at their earliest possible convenience
that they shall take the whole subject matter be
fore them, with full power to settle this vexed ques
tion : that when they have so settled, they shall an
nounce that fact, through the columns of the " Stand
ard, pledging myself to abide their decision

LATE AND IMPORTANT FROM MEXICO
Return of Mr. Slidell, the American Minister.
; We take the following from the New Orleans Bul
letin, of the 8lh instant :
Hon. Joint S. Sudkll, United States Minister to
Mexico, arrived in this City, last evening, having at
length finally retired from Mexico. He tailed from
Vera Cruz in the U. S. Steamship Mississippi, on the
28th ult- and arrived on Monday at the Belize, whence
he came to the City in tbe Steamship Alabama, from
Galveston. He is accompanied by Wm.S. Paaaarr,
Esq. Secretary of Legation. We learn that Mr. Su
dux, was finally refused by the Mexican Govern
ment to be received as Minister Plenipotentiary, or
in any capacity other than as a Commissioner for the
arrangement alone of questions growing out of the an
nexation of Texas.. The relations and controversies
between the two Governments, are, however, too
complicated to allow of the discussion of them piece
meal, even if our Government were disposed to sub
mit to the disrespect implied in the proposition of Mex
ico, or to continue the existing state of quasi-war.
Mr. Slidkix, therefore, on being refused recognition
in the capacity in which he had been sent by the Go
vernment, would not treat of any other terms of ad
mission, broke up the legation," and has returned home.
The American fleet still Isy at Sacrificios, and the
American army it well planted in command of Mat

' THE CLAY FESTIVAL. .
The Birth-day of HxatT Cixr was celebrated on
Monday last, in a most enthusiastic manner, by about
500 of " unchanged and unchangeable friends,", at
Niblo't Saloon, New York. ;ITbe company, which
was mainly, composed of; the true, staunch, hard
working Whigs of the City, sat down at 7 o'clock to
a plain but abundant supper.whicb was soon despatch
ed. After the cloth was removed, letters were read
from several Senators in . Congress, and others, re
gretting their inability, on account of pressing public
duties, to attend that meeting. ( They all spoke in the
most eloquent terms of the character and public ser
vices of the great Statesman, in whose honor this fes
tival was given. " " , . ' : ! - -'; .''"!' w- -

2. Now, Walter was a notable weaver, and did
also cunningly spin. ,

beam, and a spindle two cubits long. .
4. And he cried out Take heed, ye rebellious men
the Philistines be upon ye for I am an host. Y
5. And he rushed upon the Ass and Andrew, with
his weaver's beam, and he smote them sore.
6. But they cared not, for they had been used to
be buffeted and beaten from their youth np.
. 7. Now, Andrew was well skilled in herbs, and
did well physic the people.
v 8. So he armed himself with a bundle of hyssop,
and as Walter, the valiant, rushed upon him with his
mouth open, the cunning Andrew thrust hyssop there
in, wherewith to purge him."
if." But Walter waxed more valiant, and said I will
nel&v&be purged off, nor Polked off, nor choked off
I will be the great Shepherd.
10. So he rushed upon the Ass in a great rage.
1 1. Now the Ass was well skilled io the use of the
hoof. And she said, though I know.uot physic nor
song, yet to meddle with Asses, is not wise.
12. And she let fly her heels against Walter, in
great wrath. And she grievously bruised him, so that
he groaned bitterly.
13. And she brayed over Walter, and laid So
fare it with all who essay to. fight Asses. J
14. Still the valiant man fought manfully, and kept
his face to his foe.
15. And he bruised the head of the Ass with his
weaver's beam. He bruised also the head of Andrew,
but they regarded it not, and laughed him to scorn.
16. And as the battle waxed hotter, between Wal
ter and Andrew and the Ass, James, the Shepherd,
arose in their midst and lifted up the voice of song.
17. Now, know ye, that James, while yet but a
youth, a mere stripling, as it were, was strong in the
law, and rejoiced in thirty-six cases.
18. He was also a chief composer of Psalms, and
wrote a book of Canticles even the Canticles of
Blanner.
19. And as he rose in the midst of the men of war,
Walter, tbe valiant, did furiously rush at him, and
strove to pierce him with his spindle, under the fifth
rib.
20. But the voice of song charmed and subdued tbe
spirit of Waiter, the valiant, and he could not strike
the sweet Psalmist, for the raging devil within him
was tamed, even as was the evil spirit of Saul by the
harp of David.
21. Now James had foreseen how he would charm
the heart of Walter, by the words of song.
22. And he had drawn from tbe armory of the
Law, a cunningly devised Writ, de homine replegi
undo, which, being interpreted, means a Writ to
harness a strong man.
23. And when he had well charmed Walter with
music, he threw the net of the law over the head of
Walter, and safely had him in his toils.
24. And Walter sank to the ground. And cried
Lo ! 1 am weak as the mother that bore me ! Heav
en hath truly breathed upon James, the Poet Shep
herd. Truly, is he great in song.
. 25. Now, the song that he sang, was one of tbe
tongs of Blanner.
, 26. And Walter, the valiant, sobbed aloud, for bis
heart bad melted within him.
27. And be bewailed himself in this wise : Where
with can a strong man struggle against the combined
action of Physic, and Asses' hoofs, and writs of Re
plevin and Song? Walter, the valiant, cannot abide
it. Lo ! I am in thy power, do with me as thou wilt.
23. And James said unto Walter, wilt then forth
with flee to the mountains of Gilgal, nor tarry on the
plains, if I will deliver thee f
29. Aud Walter said, I will flee even to Gilgal,
mine home, and there will 1 tend the spindles, and
thou may'st tend tbe sheep. ;

turned his back upon the sea coast, and journeyed
towards his home, by the way of the great River Cape
Fear. ' "

had sang a song of triumph together, they entered in

No New Case of Small Pox- We are grat
ified in being able to state that no new case of
Small Pox hat occurred since our Uat." The dan
ger apprehended in the outset was, that some of
the family of Mr. Turner, or others visiting there,
might have received the infection before the dis
ease was suspected to be the small pox ; for after
tbe discorery the utmost precaution was taken
to prevent its spread ; but as more than two weeks
have elapsed since Us' first appearance, and as
the experience, of physicians has ascertained that
the disease usually developes itself within eleven
or twelve days from the exposure, and particular
ly as all the members of the family and the citi
zens of the place have been vaccinated, we thiuk
we cad safely pronounce that all danger it at an
end. Young Mr. Turner is rapidly recovering,
and it is hoped will soon be restored to health.
What great reason have we, as a community,
to bless that Providence which has so protected
as from the "pestilence that walketh in darkness."

The Senate resumed the consideration of the

The Chair announced the Senator from Texas
as having the floor. The name of Texas sound

Mr. Houston then rose and give his views.
After some introductory remarks, he went in
fully for giving the notice, He thonght nothing
was to be gained by delay.- He did not believe
the notice was calculated to produce war. But
whether war was to be tbe consequence or not,
was not the question. The only question was,
does the honor of our country demand the giving
of the notice 3 He then went into a history of
tbe whole matter, and showed that from England
we coulJ hope for nothing, unless we should
present a bold front and show her that we were
resolved to maintain our rights. " It was idle to
trust to negotiation any longer. He Chen defen
ded the President, and said Mr. Polk was bound
to put sua the course be has done. Situated as
he waa, there was no other course which be
could honorably have pursued. The President
was bound to bring the matter before Congress,
and to claim the whole of the territory, if he
had taken ground in his message for 49, instead
of 54 40, there could be but little doubt that the
same gentlemen who are now denouncing him
for claiming the whole, would hare then denoun
ced him for claiming less than the whole.

Mr. Brown, of Tenn. opposed the bill. One of
the many reasons urged against it was that it au
thorizes immediate jurisdiction over the territo

over it, without reference to any ; compromise
which may be hereafter effected.
Mr. Giles made an eloquent speech in favor of

eloquent speech, to which the Senate listened for
more than two hours with unabated interest. Mr
C's. specji abounded with more than the usual
shew of that force of logic and power of persua
sion, and wit in illustration, which invariably char
acterizes the Senator from. r Kentncky.
To give detached portions of his argument
would be doing injustice to the whole speech,
which ought to lie published by every Whig pa
per, at least, throughout the country.
Mr. Allen rose ; and said, that he might well
desire. to answer many things which had been
stated on the other side in the course of this long
debate, but he would not weary tbe Senate, nor
do injustice to thg country by putting any further
obstacle in the wy of an- immediate vote. He

Mr. Allen rejoined with considerable spirit,
and said fie was at a loss to know the reason why
wheneverhe spoke, the Senator invariably jump
ed up and'attacked him wiih personal abuse. .
Mr. Crittenden rejoined with great severity.
He said he had an instinctive aversion to a black
guard, aud an instinctive desire alwaysto tram
ple upon and to put down impudence and arro
gance. ; ; " .. . .'. Y - . ; . i
Mr. Allen explained. that his remarks referred
tp an act of tbe Senate as a body, and that they
had no personal application. Y ' ;l

O John S. Skinner, Esq., the Editor of ther Far
mers' Library, has been "received with great kind
ness and distinction iu the Southern country.- In
honoring him, they honor one of -the most faithful
and efficient advocates of the great interest of Agri
culture. A public dinner was given him iu New
Orleans, at which Wm. Christy presided, assisted by
Bailie Peyton. Mr. Skinner made a capital speech,
full of good,feeIingand,dashea o wit ; and, in con
clusion, paid a high compliment to the South, as
follows : : j .
" When tourists, full of ignorance or prejudice,
scribble about the hot blood aud excesses of Southern
people, that sometimes break out, as the Summer
freckle on the face of the most exquisite beauty, they
should remember, that the strongest weeds grow but
in the richest soil so with all their institutions and
passions inherited or inherent the wish of his
heart should always be peace and prosperity to the
Sunny South." - Y v K

DR. SHANKLIN'S APPOINTMENTS, i
It appears from the subjoined 'announcement,
which we have been requested to publish, that
Dr. Shanklin is about to take the field in earnest,
as one of the Democratic candidates for Gover
nor. We supposed that the formidable move
ments of the Raleigh Junto, would have the ef
fect lo drive the Doctor from the field. But it
seems that he is made of stuff too stern for that.
It remaius lo be seen whether Mr. SheparuVis not
afraid to meet bis Democratic competitor. ;
It is proper we fhould state thaf the reason
why we have been requested to . publish the
Doctor's appointments, is this : The Standard
though professing to be the organ of the Derrioj
cratic 'party, refuses to publish the Doctor' s 'circii?
lar : and he is unwiliiug to subject himself and
friends to the mortification of a second refusal.
With (his explanation, we publisfi the appoint
ments precisely as we received them, as follows :
Doctor Andrew. Shanklin, by the advice of his
friends, has determined not to be driven from the
Held by that political upstart James B. Shepard,
though he is backed by a Junto known as the
Raleigh Clique,' who are attempting to force
him upon the democracy of the State, whether
they want him or noL The Doctor ia not to be
dictated to by any such cabal. 4He declared him
self a candidate for. Governor -before any other
Democrat and he is resolved not to te driven from
his position. He intends to meet his fellow De-$
mocrats : throughout ihe state, and to show up
the Raleigh Junto and their pet Shepard, in their
true colors. For this purpose be will address
the Democracy, at the following places at such
times during the months of May, June and July,
ss they shall appoint.' And he hereby dares the
aforesaid James B. Shepard, or any member of
the Raleigh Clique to meet him "at Yaoy of the
following places : 'V- ; .:

We are glad to be able to state, that this project,
so important to the interests of ' the travelling
public, not less than to those of the country upon
tne route, is nor. ai an iosi signi oi, out mat u
engages the earnest attention of those interested,
here and elsewhere. It is believed" that by the
meeting of the next Legislature, arrangements
can be made to connect this enterprise with the
purchase otlhe Raleigh and Gastonr Road from
the State; and that, at the reduced price which
ihe whole would cost, they can be made' exceed
ingly valuable, and reasonably profitable. We
