ic about which there is lilioly to be much discussion,

The London Journals and the opponents of Ore
gon in Congress, ciy down thevaluc of the territory
in dispute, and denounce a war for such a prize as
foolish and wicked in the extreme. What! light
for Oregoo, just as the tariff to about to be reduced ?
just us the powers'of the people are aboot to be dis
tributed aa the frarnris of the constitution intended
them to be ?—raise u military order in the country
and create a war spirit in the land, and above all do
this when the western States are indebted some 200
millions of dollars to Europe T—Such a course
would be suicidal and unwise:
But let na look at Oregon for a moment, and see
what it to, and what position it is destined to occupy
upon the toce of the earth.
~ Oregon to nearly 400,000 square miles in superfi
cial extent, more than three times as large as the
aggregate of the British Islands, and about equal in
extent to the original thirteen States. It extends
from 42 deg. to 54 deg. 40 min. North latitude; and
is bounded on the east by the United States and
Canada, on the west by the Pacific Ocean, and on
the north by the Ruisian Territory, and on the
than knowledge, we proposo to lay before our rea
ders some accurate information concerning it.'

Continent on the Pacific.
This beautiful territory which to so accessible to
the men of New England, and the middle States, to
• pose of an “equitable partition” of the ter
ritory: and second, to submit first the title,
and then if neither country wns found to
have a perfect title to the whole, to submit
to an equitable partition; we say it is im
possible to read these oilers without com
ing to the conclusion that they were made
to be rejected. Mr, Packenham must have
.'been certain of such a result, and his Di
plomatic ingenuity, has been exercised to
impress upon the world n semblance of
fairness and pacific intention on tho part
of Great Britain, to add to the moral force
ofthe British position in the event of n
rupture, and to make it appear that the
American Government, not animated by a
spirit of peace and conciliation, wns. really
instigated by that rapacious desire for ter
ritory, with which legitimate power in Eu
rope has slanderously charged it.

Mere description can give little Men of the ter
rors of the bar ofthe Columbia: all who have seen
it have spoken of tho wildness of the scene find the
incessant roar of tho waters, representing it as one
of the most fearful sights that can possibly meet the
eye or the sailor. The difficulty of its channel, the
distance of theleading sailing marks, their uncer
tainty to one acquainted with them, the want of
knowledge of the strength and direction of the cur

The movement of the English squadron, in conjunc
tion witii the French, in blockading Buenos Ayres,
has thrown a light iq part upon England’s policy in
her interference in relation to tbe state of Uruguay.
Her aim to more titan a proper intervention hosed
upon the rights of nations, and shonM be discounte
nanced as improper and unjust, and as inflicting a
wrong upon a friendly power; and which has been
done, and in a prompt manner, by onr Charge de
Aflairs. The blockade of Buenos Ayres has been
protested against by Sir. Brent, and the foct of such
protest forwarded to the Department with all the
beta bearing upon the Anglo French intervention,
and which will probably be brought to light through
the proper medium. Tbe hostile interventions—for
such they mast be considered—ofthe Anglo-French,
may appear bright to those unacquainted with the
surrounding country and the character and numbers
of Beunos Ayres, and I may add Uruagnay. For al
though tho capital of tbe latter State appears to be
at war with Gen Oribe, tho former President, there
is' nevertheless, a secret wish for his return tothe
helm of Statp, but which has been prevented by
foreign interference, and to which may bo attribu
ted tbe protracted difficulties of tbe two Republics.
It to well known that the French and English resi
dent of this pheo exercise an influence which has
caused the present added difficulties and who have
been the cause cf tho distress, starvation and misery
of Monte Video. Gen. Oribo was not and to not
lighting against tbe natives of this place, nor against
the English, bat against Rivera (who has been rou
ted) and such aa ho was able to employ of tho for
eigners, tlio outcasts of their mother country, to
whom ho gave tho use of arms, but not a vote.—
These iiiroligs arc now but few,—the French: and
English have stepped in and supplied tbe places of
the absconding; but in name and numbers, as yet,
and to ail appearances, their inactivity wil) he thrown
aside, and tiioir prowess brought against Oribe, who
in my humble opinion will be fonnd'tobe no child at
war, although it to certain he will never oppose the
Anglo-French In open combat—for from it. He has
un army of full 20,000, and oil well mounted to a
man, and who have been in actual service for the
lastsix yean, enured to hardships and fatigue and
privations such us an English eeldier to unaeqnain-
ted with. Their food to such as no would revolt at,
being horse flesh, which they prefer to neat cattle.
They drive the horses before them to any place they
wish to go, and can travel to' tho distance of 30 add
40 leagues a day, capable thereby of appearing at
point* when least expected, and harassing an ene
my and cutting offsnpplioa at their option.
Largo forces can be obtained ata moment’s warn
ing; bum other source*; such for instance, as an
underarms in tbe city of .Beanos Ayres, and the
Patagonian Indians, a tierce and warlike tribe, i f
Should the Anglo-French intervention continue,
and Rosas hold out, England may expect to spend
thoueonde of lives,and then not bring to terms a foe
not so easily subdued. ■ The Republic of Chili, Bo
livia and Pera, are apparently silent, but bow long
they will maintains neutrality should they see a sis
ter republic endangered and her institutions likely
to crumble for want of assistance ? Tho whole con
tinent would toko tho alarm, and a general impulse
succeed, and to a perfect anion; not setting aakfe
Brazil, in a united defence. • Tbe whole would be

French, and ita results too impressive to die upon

Arbitration.
Several of tho Whig press are abusing the pa
tient very severely for not submitting our tettitofo:
righto in Oregon to arbitration. According locus,
tom, they cxtoll tho moderation, justice and Ifon]:
ty of the British Government, and charge oar **j
administration with arrogance, folly and preamp,
tion, for not receiving with becoming thankTnincti
and gratitude the offer of Britain. Bntkt Uet .
amine and nee what this boon is tint our Prefer
has so ungratefully rejected. The first (soporific
amounts to this, that the King of France or ^
Emperor of Russia, or some ooc of the era**!
heads of Europe, shall lay how much of onr on
territory of Oregon we may keep, and how and
we shall give to Great Britain. Wc believe nit*,
nine persona out of every hundred will now
that our titio to the whole of Oregon to much fee-
than that of Britain. Tho only object of arbitntic;
then, would be, to leave it for others to ay bn
much we shall give England to induce her t* bn?
the peace. But it to said Mr-Packenham oflerela
leave the-matter in dispute to a board of cirifian
or jurists. This to nmtotake, he merely mtoe lb
suggestion, that K the British Government w«i<
accede to it whether it would suit our Govcnun-::-.
But made no proposition to that effect that sod
hind himself or his government. But we are f-
cidedly opposed to submitting a question of
much importance to our country aa our tide a
Oregon, to the caprices of arbitration. Insibitir.
ing, the side that hat the best title or the most ju-
tice is almost sure to suffer. The arbitrators gr..
erally go for dividing the amount in dispute equal;
between the two parties, so that the one who ini
flimsy title will be likely to get as much as be sb:
has a good one.
It to always for the interest of the party which
has the poorest title or tire least justice, toaitotnla
for they risk nothing, and will stand an even chase
to gain'one half of what is in dispute, particularly
when they can havo'thcir friends or dependants L-
arbitrators. This is precisely the case with Eng
land and the United States. England knows the
her title to Oregon is not good; and if it is left toe;
of the sovereign of Europe to decide, these lot dt.
ous reasons, will be likely to fovor England, axis
dividing the territory in dispute, we sbonld stand r
chanco of getting even half, Wa bavealieadyofte
ed to divide tbe country by tbe 4Stb parallel of Nat
latitude, which would - giro England nearly W
whilst she has only offered to divide the cornin';
the Columbia River. The arbitrators would prda
bly split this diflbrence, which would giro sett;
two-thirds and the best [fort ofthe country toEtf
land. This is the best we can hope from
tion, and would the American people submit tori
a decision? Would any man'who dcserrestb
name of American bo satisfied with it? Buttins,
reiterate, is the very best we could ferns bom a
(ration, form cannot hope that the arbitrators wos-i
give as all we ask: aril it they divided equally tr
tween our oftr arid that of Britain, they would
much tbe largest and best psqt to Britain. Still, v-
all these disadvantages, our government is urged
