It was nearly 9 o'clock before the creat mass of the visitors, passing from the dressing rooms into the reception room, were introduced to the Presi- dent and the ladies of his family. With his usual characteristic and systematic roots he hada smile, a bow, and a pressure of the hand for eve one who approached. Some were satisfied ‘wi The chandeliers were lighted with the best cam. phine, and the glass drops flashed forth the pristine colors and their blended hues. ‘Two large ee mir- Tors seemed to increase the number ; and besides were very convient ; for, as the more modest of the throng were reluctant to ue beauty full in the face, they viewed it in the angle of reflection. ‘here stood the President.

As if in contrast to the white kidded | hands of the gentlemen, and the white vests and | black dress coats, we noticed two farmers, not car- | ing about etiquette, making their way through the clouds of pertume, (not so sweet to them as the new mown hay,) with their snuff colored overcoats | on their honest backs, and their substantial hats in their fingers.

Mr. Clayton, kly acknowledged that he would ied that the di ion of the title to Oregon should be re- served to the Executive deliberations of the Senate w on some definite proposition of settlement ; because, the discussion of the title before the open Senate, if the mi in committed to prospect of a compromise.

Mr. Hanweoan said that it was @ ridiculous account in both the city papers, of that part of his remarks ad- verted to by the honorable Senator from Delaware. He did not mean to say, in referring to the incident of Hoey cited from Caius Gracchus, that there was a probability in any of the Senate being turned out of doo: but the incident as intended to be given, was, that Caius Gracchus on not being heard,turned his face from the Senate to the people without ; and that from that day the mode of address was changed in Roman legislation. Mr. H. , did mean, that if the Senate in Execut id not listen to his demands for the “whole or none,” he would appeal to Buncembe. Mr. Crayton expressed his pleasure atthe Senator's explanation. Mr. Dix thereupon resumed his argument from yester- day. It wall be remembered that he began yesterday with the discovery by Columbus,of the continent, down in detail the various explorations and discoveries, which have since been made by Spanish, English, and American navigators, down to the Convention of i618. He also recapitulated the times and places of the first settlements in the Oregon.

Honor, duty, and justice to American citizens, req! these measures, and they should be acted upon with promptitude and decision. He did not believe that the notice, and these collateral proceeding, would lead to war. lt was a right to give the notice expressly provided for by treaty. it was a treaty stipulation. ‘e had the same right to extend our laws over the territory, under the treaty, that Great Britai . no offence could surely be taken to the erection of a line of miliia- posts within our own domains. He did not believe such acts would lead to war, and he said so empha- tically, because all usion had been made to the possi- bility of England striking a sudden blow uponus.
