Congressional
The Oregon Bill was lost in the Senaie on the 3d instant, by a strict party vote. A bilà for the improvetnenl of the Harbors of the Nor.h and Weet was pocketed by Mr. Tyler. This will be quite a grievous disappointment to the western people; but if they will vote for Slaveholders they cannot complain. Among the appropriations were a considerable number for Michigan and Lakc Michicnn, and one of $ 100,000 for thn Sauh Ste Marie canal. Such is the closing up of the career of "Tyler too!" Such the coneideration displayed by him for the interests of the many thousands who shouted for him in this State. The National Intelligencer, ays of the last night of Congress: "One1 incident of the night which we delight to record, was a decisive victory over the executive veto, being the iirstsuch victory ever achieved in Ihis government. A bilà had passed both housee, and been sent to the president, to forbid the construction of revenue cutters at the execuiive pleasure, without the previous authority of Congrees. This bill whs returned by the president to the Senate, in which body it originated, with his object ions, the voie was, yeas 40, ftays one. - On roaching the House of Representatives, it was again possed by that body, yeas 126, naye 31. So, passing both hodies by more than a two thirds vote, it has become & law in defiauce of the veto." Mr. Bancroft has been unanimously confirmed by the Senate as Secretary of the Treneury.
