Senators are the constitutional advisers of the President in making appointments to office, and | when a person comes here recommended by a large | and respectable portion of the democratic constitu- ency, to the Executive, for office, it is expected that | the Senators of the State recommending one of its | sons, will call upon the President, and see that the | claims and merits of the appligant are fairly and fully plying for office. Some of our Senators, however, make it a personal matter, and instead of calling upon the Executive as the representative of a sove- in behalf of the State, they permit seltish feelings of delicacy to interfere, and tor teur of doing wrong, they never do right. Senator Dix is living here in a plain, but chaste and elegant style, entertaining those whose position and fortune entitle them to conside- ration, and sociably those in humble life! To such as are of the aristocratic families, cards of invita- tion are sent; but the common people, who have not | travelled in Europe, and been presented at foreign courts, are told that the? do not entertain—they are invited to a cup of tea Sociably. This is a mas ter stroke of policy in Genera! Dix, for it smacks of kitchen economy, and by keeping two tables, he sometimes “ entertains angels unawares.” Dickin- | son, the other Senator from our State, is more of a | democrat, and keeps but one plain table, in common with two ag Yankee Senators, where all the | plain hungry her as a woman of extraor- | reat and leal champion et the s fall eloquent and heartfelt trom his lips, as if he meant what he said. 1+ is thought by some that Benton makesa feeler of him upon the war question—that if it don’t take the right turn, he can avail himself of a Texas get-off; bur | st emocrats from the North are wel- | his comed to eat, drink and be merry.

But he believed there would be peace—that the 49h parallel would yet be agreed upon as the dividing line.

Nothing of the sort. In reviewing the relative prowess ot England and the United States, the learned Senator thought 1f the Enghsh were a bold, brave, and courageous nation, it was fair to conclude that we might be tound so in an equal de gree, descended as we were from the same stock, &e. Mr. Niles, in conclusion, reiterated his deter- mination to vote for the resolutions. ‘ 4 Mr. Orcrrenves next followed in the discussion. He saw 10 the resolutions themselves nothing ob- | jectionable, and he should vote for them. ‘The re- | marks of the honorable Senator, however, who had | introduced these resolutions, gave to them peculiar significency. Mr. Crittenden then reviewed the re- marks of Gen. Cass, of yesterday, that we must give the twelve months notice, and that if Great Britain | then persists in her claim, war is inevitable; and said that if this were so, we had better, at once. employ ourselves to put on the whole harness of war. He read from the reported speech of General Sass the passage upon this point, and asked of the ed Senator, if this was to be understood distinguis! a us solemn opinion & Gen. Cass, evitable. Mr. Crirrenpen desired a more explicit under- anding of this branch of the Senator’s remarks, as | delivered in the Senate. Gen.

Ho! for Oregon—The War Panic in the Senate— Resolutions Passed Wnanimously—Gen. Cass and Mr. Crittenden— Miscellaneous Matters. The accumulation of spectators in the galleries of the Senate to-day has not scarcely been surpassed since Choate’s beautiful speech on the Texas an- nexation. Numbers of ladies could not gain admis- | sion, owing to the crowd just within the doors; in- deed, it is a common oceurrence to have the gang. ways of the galleries blockaded, while yet there are numbers of vacant seats further along unoccupied . The door-keeper of the gallery ought to see to this. Th> war discussion was of course resumed.— Mr. Niles led off in a verry temperate, sensible and judicious speech ix favor of the resolutions for in- quiring into the condition of all our military and na” val defences. Mr. Crittenden was also in favor } ex of the resolutions, but he had a purpose for all yhat; and it was a passage at arms with General Cass. He completely cornered the General by his | Fepeated cross-questions upon bis declaration of yes- terday that war was inevitable from the only policy | we have now left to pursue, to wit—the giving’the twelve months’ notice, and the certain pertinacity of Great Britain to her claims. So far, at length, did the skilful Kentuckian push backward his antego- nist as to force him to the injudicious explanation | that he believed war almcst inevitable should Great | §!'¢ Britain persist in her claim to the whele of Oregon | ™* after the expiration of the twelve months’ notice.— Mr. Crittenden regarded this as a complete offset to the tremendous explosion of yesterday. Gen. Cass | did not retract a syllable, and further explained ; | and the son of Kentucky, with that courtesy of a true | knight, perceiving his antagonist wounded, declined | further to pursue his advantage. Mr. Sevier was scarcely more fortnnate in hie small-sword exercise with Webster ; for Black Dan, with his Scotch cleaver, stood over him like Richard the crusader over the fiery but incompe- tent Saladin. Yet so generously did each regard the | good temper and metal of his adversary, that not a | plume was ruffled in the helmet of either combatant.

There were two waysin which 4 government might proceed—we may excite a great alarm without any preparation, and we may proceed in that quiet and efficient way of inquiry upon the na- tiouel defences which sould attait the end desired, without disturbing the public tranquility. Mr. Web- ster was of the opinionthat the President did not an- ticipate war—that the tone of his message did not bit that he apprehended any serious danger to | the peace of the country, &c. Mr. Webster recurred to the losses which would affect our commerce and our sea-hoard, from a wer with England, and was far from believing that any such dreadful exigency was | seriously to be apprehended Wauiker, his Private Secreta UMr. Sevizr was suoniebed at nothing could be | | Fought forward upon this floor in regard to Ore- | gon, but that it met invariably the opposition of the other side.

But Gen, Cass was completely victorious in the end. Every man in the Senate sided with him for the resolutions. The discussion was very interest- ing to-day, and while it will have the tendency vast- ly to soften the alarm about and apprehension ot war, it will show to the world the unity of the Senate and of the country, if the gods should find it unavoidable, and old Mars pocordingly, like the -red tresses giant upon the mountains, with his bloo: streaming in the sun, should “ Cry ‘havoc "and let slip the dogs of war.” ‘The bone of contention remiuds us of the battle o¢ Blenheim, as given in the baliau of “ Bob Southey.’ ‘The old man was telling litle Wilhelmina of the great triumph gained on the day of that battle, when she asked— “Now, tell us all about the war, And what they killed cach other for.” “Indeed, 1 do not know,” quoth he, “But twas a famous victory.” Such would be our victories, if their results stop= ped with the “‘whole of Oregon.” But Mr. Man- gum was right—Oregon would become a secondary matter inthe contest between monarchy and repub licanism—and a war opened with England for Ore- on, willend upon that issue, and the convulsion ake the whole globe like an earthquake, and en- velope both continants in the smoke and lava of a volcano.
