Prof. McGutfey’s enthusiastic devotion to the cause of Educa-tion his fine taste and discriminating mind, and his practical ex-

peiieuce as an instructer, render him peculiarly fitted for the de-

partment of authorship, to which lie h;.s given his attention. Thesuggestions of intelligent teachers who had used the funner edi-

tions of the series, audjlie valuable aid afforded him in tlie revis-

ion by an experienced educator, have also furnished him withunusual facilities for advantageously revising and enlarging these

works.In inis series, comprising as it does, a careful selection of in-

structive, entertaining and mural matter, progressively arranged,and graduated with reference to the capacity of the pupil. Prof.

McGuflcy has afforded to parents and teachers, a most thorough,complete, and efficient auxiliary iu the education cf youth. Its

extensive use has been sufficient for the development and just ap-

preciation if its many excellencies. Tiie result is. that intelli-

gent teaciieis pronounce it the mvsj complete series now before the

1 ition. llie publisher is enabled, uni withstanding the heavy expendilure in their revision and enlargement, to manufacture them iu

the neatest and most durable manlier, while they aie now furnish-

Congress.—Mr. Morehead from Kentucky took

his seat in the Senate on the 9th.

In the House the debate on the resolution report-

ed from the committee on Foreign Affairs to give

twelvemonths notice of the termination of the Ore-

gon Treaty, was brought to a close. The resolution

was amended by the adoption of the following as a

substitute offered by Mr. Boyd of Kentucky.

Resolved, That the President of the United Statesenuse notice to be given to the government of GreatBritain, that the Convention between the UnitedStates of America and Great Britnin in relation to

the Territory of the Northwest Coast, west of the

Stony or Rocky Mountains, of the 6th day of Au-gust, 1827, signed at London, shall be annulled andabrogated twelve months after giving said notice.

Resolved, That the notice herein contained, is not

intended to interfere with the right and discretion ofthe proper authorities of the two contracting par-

ties to renew or pursue negotiation for an amica-ble settlement of the controversy respecting the Or-egon territory.

The vote on the adoption of Mr. Boyd’s resolu-

tion, was 163 to 54, all the representatives from

Kentucky, except Mr. Davis, in the affirmative.

The last resolution of Mr. Boyd is in substance the

same as one offered in committee of the Whole bv

The Oregon debate in the Senate commenced on

concluding, in a violent inflammatory harangue, full

of abuse heaped upon Daniel Webster and Great

Britain.
