Mr. Allen gave notice of a joint resolution de claratory of the principles by which this country be coverned with regard to the interference foreign powers with the iudependent govern ment of America. Several private and local bills having been passed over informally; the Senate held a short Gxecuiive session and theri adjourned." HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES: The morning hour was occupied by the reception of reports frMO Committees, and the adoption various resolutions of inquiry. A resolution was adopted directing art inquiry the expediency of erecting various marine hospitals in different parts of the Union.

A resolution was adopted directing an inquiry into the expediency of erecting a national armory on the Western waters. A very stormy scene took place upon the resolution providing that the extra' copies of Free-mont's report relative to printed for the of the members at the last session1 be distributed among the members of the present session; About twenty members wished to talk at once. After an ineffectual attempt to lay the whole matter upon the table, the resolution was agreed to. Resolutions were offered and laid over, declaring thai' the principle of rotation in olfire is glorious one and that noomce bolder ought to remain in omce more than eight years. A resolutiotrwast)ffered and laid over, calling the President to slate, if not incompatible with ihe puhlic interest, whether negotiation! relative Oregon has been en irely suspendd.

The Committee on ways and means were instructed to report on the expediency of authorizing a new coinage of one dollar gold pieces. SENATE WEDNESDAY, Jan. 14, 1846.

As soon as the Journal had beeu read, the House went iuto Committee of the whole, for the purpose of resuming the consideration of the Jotut Resolution reported from the Committee ou i-oreigu Attains, givingthe Oregon notice to Great Britaiu. Mr. Stauton havinz the floor, said that the conse-J u.

He weut ou to show that we are as well prepared for war now as ever we were. Mr.

Briukerhoff followed on the same side. By the contiutiauce of the Convention, Great Britain was getting alt she wanted. He was therefore for giving the notice. Mr. Wenlworth was afraid the people would justly think there was agood deal of humbug in this Oregou question, and that it was to be all talk and no action He went for piviii? the notice, aud contended mat it had nothing to do with war.

Mr Chipmun next cot the floor.

Some private bill havmof been reported, at a very early hour the Sena'e went into an Execu- t.ve session and afterwards adjournea to jjonuay I I next. HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES. A considerable number of private and local bills were reported. I he House then went once more into commit tee of the Whole, and resumed the consideration of the Joint Resolution from the Committee on Foreign authorising the Presklenl to give the Oreeon notice. Mr- Cocke, of Tennessee, having given his views, the floor was taken by.

Mr. Bedmger. He was for stonmn? all further negotiation in the mat'er, and for atilrding immediate protection to our settlers in Oregon. In the course of his re- marks, he said if we wapted Oregon for the sake of the skins and the furs, we should have acted long ago, as the Hudson Bay Company had anti-ci oated us. But no, we wanted the wholeof Or egon for far more important purposes, which he named in detail.

Yesterday a great day with the Democracy in the Empire and the glorious 8th of January was duly honored by military processions, orations, etc. during the day, aud by patriotic exhibitions balls, in the Of these latter, decidedly most magnificent was that designated the Ore-goo, and California Ball," given at Tammany, in honor," as it was said on the cards of invitation and announcement, "of the' illustrious dead A queer way, indeed, 'dancing and fiddling and the like drolleries, to honor" the unforgoiten brave The fete was not, however, so well atleuded as was expected from the pompous preparations that had been previously made. Mauy were called, but few choseu." Among the distinguished personages invited, were Vice President of the Uuited States, who.

in lien himself, seut to the r' sachems" the following rather characteristic sentiment: The Genius of Jacksoa may be regarded as stifi guiding our national destinies the vigor of his tone yet audible me erect oearing oi nis patriotism continues front aud abash, the wiles of discord the grasp of usurpation it has consummated the Annexation of aud it stands immovable on the outer edge of Oregon." And Mr. BuchanaB, the Secretary of State, who also declined appearing at the Locofoco shindig," but sent a note, which was read in the Ball-room, that declared that the 44 death of Jackson covered the nation with a sorrow, such as the death of Washington alone had produced." The presence of the Secretary of War, Martin Van Buren, Tom Dorr, the mock hero of Rhode Island, Col. Dick Johnson, the (mock, too?) hero of the Thames, and other civil and military dignitaries in the Locofoco camp, was solicited, but failed to muster. Gov. kll, of Ar kansas, couldn't come, but he yelled the following stale sentiment, which was warmly received by the male and female democrats iu the Hall: Tur Principles or Jackson and of Polk.

We ask nothing but what is right we will submit to nothing that is wrong. We respect the rights of other nations we will maintain our own." The Pennsylvania man, Charles Jared Ingersoll, in the three lines with which the 44 Columbian Order" were favored, certainly contrives to infuse a leetle" more hatred to John Bull (a genuine of Democratic orthodoxy; by the way,) than ordiuary Eugland caters. Hear him: 4Nowar for Oregon, unless England makes it but then no peace while there is any thing English iu America. How absurd how very inappropriate, indeed is such wattle as that, ou such an occasion. Confine ridiculous nonsense as that, Mr.

Iiigersolt, to the Capitoliue cock.pit, aud refrain hereafter from thrusting it into Ball-rooms. It is very mal apropos, certainly. The confirmation of Robert II. Morris, as Postmas ter of this City, by the U. S.

Senate, ou'Thursday, gives general satisfaction here. Locofoco though he be. a more dilizeul and alteutive Postmaster, New York has seldom had to boast of. aud. thus far, he has discharged the duties of his office with fidelity aud fairness to all parties.

Harper, whom I alluded to in a former epistle, as having been convicted lor muroer, is senieuccu io uo I a 1 TU banged on the 23d of February next. ISo sooner has the State Legislature been organ zed. than the Locofoco members therein commence firing away at Oregou, and abusing the British for ariu ir to assert a claim to that magumcent ternr lory" faithful to the praiseworthy example oi meir compeers at Washington. Ou the second day of the bession, a Mr. u.

The Speech of the President of the Democratic Convention of N. has produced on the heart-strings of this ouce distinguished statesman, an effect almost as terrific aud revolutiouary as the same honorable gentleman predicted Mr. Pout's Message was destiued to produce on all creation. Mr.

W. had been doomed to many severe inflictions before, and had borne them all like a man of iron nerve. But this last ouslaught from his old Federal friend him with whom, in the olden time, he had so and in such good fellowship, discussed politics and wine, has broken the heart of the Bay State giant. He trill never smile- arain. When the news was told him.

that he had been convened aud organized into a sheep-stealing dog" by his old Xriend, his Spirit sank within his brave breast, and he sobbed like a child. He declared he could never survive it, and wept afresh. All attempts to console him have proved unavailing. He says he has nothing now to do in this world, but resign his seat iu the ienate, then gather himself together, and give up the ghost. His determination is fixed to see his wife and chil- dreu once more, but fears they will spurn the sheep-stealer" from their If so, he will piously seek out the graves of his father and mother, in the woods of New Hampshire, and lay himself down by their side and die.

To witness the fall of a great man is at all times awful. To see him so fall, shorn of his honors, and wrapped in a stolen sheepskin, might cause e'en an pels to weep. Let him fall like the hero of Coruuna be slowly and sadly borne to his rent, 'mid the sounds of the muffled drum, and 44 his martial cloak around him," and it were well. But to fall like a dog a sheep-stealing dog and be contemptuously tumbled into a felon's grave, in the northwest corner of a couutry church yard, robed iu the stolen skin, is not well. 44 A pizen sarpent bit bis heel." But the deed is done.

Daniel Wkbstkr will, in ten days, be a dead man, and follow in the footsteps of Leftenant Cutties' on-LT son, uttering the same heart-piercing cry Crn-e. cru-ef, crn-el sar-pent This terrible catastrophe upon the Whigs, will em balm in the memory of the progressive this pizen Bar-pent; and future generations will place him in a full strut of rlory, at the right hand of the immortal archer who so valiantly killed Cock Robin.

There is no prospect of a speedy termination either. Not more than two speeches are made each day, which wH continue it some three. or four weeks. The probability is that the debate will continue till nearly the middle of February, and this will bring senate and House into the field togelber, as Mr. Allen's Resolutions in the Senate have been laid over February 10th.

OMISSIONS SUPPLIED.

In the hasty preparation of the Proceedings of the Whig Convention, which we published on Friday, we omitted to notice the Speech made by James T. Moat-bead, of Guilford an oversight which, though we are quite sure, was a matter of utter indifference to him, was not so to us, because his Speech was oae of great "excellence and point, and was highly acceptable to the Convention, not only for Us own' sake, but because it came from the brother of our distinguished and popular Ex Governor. This is the only omission we perceive, on an examination of our except that we should bate more particularly noticed those gallant spirits, who were here as. Delegates from tjje great Western Reserve of North Carolina, several of whom came a dis-1 ta'nce of nearly 30(1 miles for no other purpose than to pay their homage at the shrine of Whig principles These are Whigs worth talking about, and they are just the sort of Whigs as are made by the pure Mountain breezes of our beloved old Sute. We might have also added, that notwithstanding the number ef capital Speeches made on the occasion, such was the amount of speaking talent in the Coa-i venlion, that almost as many good ones were left undelivered, as were made.

I 1 THE TWO CONVENTIONS. We confess, that the recent iWhig' Convention was much more nuineronsly- attended than we expected, taking into consideration all circumstances. It was a most onpropitious season of the yeartbe notice was unusually short it was, every where, understood! that Gov. Gxaham would be re -nominated, and matfy persons, on thw account, thought it unnecessary to come, only caring to know that he would be the nominee. i How was it with the Loco Foco Convention They began much earlier'to work than we did, and their party bad longer notice -of preparation.

They were constantly stimulated by the Standard" to come up to the mark, by assurances that the Whigs were-all dead and buried, and that the Democrats ought, therefore, the more to show xeal. And, in addition, by fictitious nominations' of gentlemen all over lb State, they so' enlisted the friends of various aspirants, as to reseut the strongest inducement to them to come to their iA. We will not deny thai all this bragging and de-enunciation this billing and cooing had the effect of fusing, the dormant energies of the Whigs, and touching their pride in the right pJace. We do not therefore complain of the arts of the Standard," but only mention them, to enable our readers to estimate the relative force of the two Conventions, by contrasting the following facts, viz (J the Loco Foco Convention, 35 Counties were represented by Delegates and proxies. In the Whig Convention, were represented by bona fide Delegates.

i In the Loco Foci Convention, there were 133 Delegates, exclusive proxies, but including an unnaturalized foreigner who, we learn, was in the body. In the Whig Convention, there were 41 Dele-e gates, good and true. V- f. In the Loco Foco Convention, the two-thirds rale the rule for creating an Aristocracy of demagogues was adopted." In the Covention, the good old Republican rule that a majority shall goteru was adopted, aud acted upon, i In the Loco Foco Convention; abuse of political opponenU was the order of the day. In the Whig Convention," every thing was done in decency and order, so far as the Whigs could con trol it.
