Vancouver are pre-eminently superior to
those of any other country, whose vested
had, in those days, visited the Northwest
coast; while iu point of value and impor
tance, surely the discovery of a single har
bor, HlltioughV. the mupfh o( an important
river, cannot, & giving a claim to territory,
be placed in cotwpe|inou with the vast extent
ifdiscovery arujKrvey accomplished by
the Britislrp^Tgsrairs.
As regards exploration inland, entire
justice must be donwto the memorable ex
ploit of MM. Lewis and Clarke, but those
distinguished travellers were not the first
who effected a passage across the Oregon
Territory from the Rocky Mountains to the
Pacific. As far back as 179d, lhat feat had
lecn accomplished by Mackenzie a British
subject. In the course of tbit expedition,
Mackenzie explored the upper waters of a
nver, since called Fraser's tiver, which, in
process offline, was tiaced to its junction
with the sea, near the 49th degtee of latitude;
thus forming, in point of exploration, a
counterpoise to the exploration ol that part
of tnt Columbia, which was first vi*ited by
Lewis and Clatke.
Priority of settlement is th<* third plea on
which the American claim proper is made
lorest.
In 1-11, an establishment sot ifie purposes
of trade was formed at the South side of the
Columbia river, near to its mouth, by cer
t tin American citizens. This establishment
passed during the war into the hands of
British subjects; but it was restored tq the
Auiciicaii (lovernmentjin the year ISIB, by
an understanding between the two Govern
ments. Since then, it has not however, been
iu reality, occupied by Americans. ffUU.
is the case of priority of settlement.
The American plenipotentiary jays going
airassou the admiseiou attributed to Lord
Castlereash, then principal Secretary of
•State for Foreign Affairs, that l ‘lho Ameri
can government bad the most ample right
to be reinstated and to be considered the
party in jiossession while Heating of the title.’
The undersigned is not inclined to dispute
an asset lion resting on such respectable
authority. But he must observe in tlie first
place, that the reservation implied by the
words •* white treating cf the title,’’ ex
dudes any inference winch might otherwise
Imj drawn from the j.rec-tiding words preju
dicial to the title iff Great Britain ; and
further, that when the authority of the
American minister is thus admitted for an
observation, which is pleaded against Eng
land, it is but fair, that, on the part of the
United States, credit should be given to
England for the authenticity of a despatch
from Lord Castlereagh ioti.e British minister
at Washington, which was communicated
verbally to the government pf the United
States when the restoration of the establish
ment called Astoria, nr Fort George, was in
• onleinplaiion,containing a complete reser
vation us the tights of England, to the
territory at the mouth of the Columbia—
(Statement of the llrjtjsh pleni|>otcn.tiai jes,
.December. 1826,)
In fine the present state of the question
between the two governments appears to be
ibis: Great Britain possesses and exercises
in con:m in with the United Slates a right
i>fjoint upaev ip the Oregon Territory,
of which right she cat: be divested, with
respect to any part iff that territory, only by
;ti ipi table partition oi (be whole between
tlie two | lowers.
It is, for obvious reasons, desirable that
such a partition should lake place as soon
:is possinle ; and the difficulty appears to be
in devising a line of demarcation which
dm* I leave to each |n try that precise portion
of the territory best suited to its interest and
convenience.
The IJ:lrish government rnt/rrtaim and the
hope that by the proposal lately submitted
fir :!.e coij'ideratiun of the American Gov

loinptishcd.

Krgt Ihe point w iiere the 4 9 !i degree of

We on.it the numerous notes, that passed
between the negofiylota as well as. the sev
eral protocols of conferences held by them,
as preliminary to the serious discussion
which begins with Mr. Calhoun's despatch
of the 3d September. The reader will
perceive that it was written in reply to
a proposition offered by Mr. Packingham,
which is sufficiently explained by the
reply. Mr. Calhoun after declining the
proposal, proceeds in a masteily manner to
lay open tlirgroundsof the American claim
to that portion of the territory (to the North
of the Columbia, under the 49th parallel (V
including the magnificent bend made iu that
river below it) which is the immediate sub
ject of discussion. We defy anybody to read
if without coming to tbe conclusion that he
has made out our title to be “clear find un
questionable.”

The band is composed of a bass and tenor
male voices, and two female voices, a sopia
nq and nltq. While the voices are fine, the
beauty of their performance pons.isis jq th.eii
exquispe training. Tlie four organs are so
happily blended and modulated as to pro
duce tlie effect of a single Instrument—or as
tfoue throat and one pairofluqgs gave tjiter

OREGON—THE NOTICE.
In the private and public iliscusGuns of
the duty of this ejnntry, in regard to the
Oregon question, it js often assumed, that
negotiation is ponding between the coun
tries, and that it is had policy, and perhaps
bad fujih to disturb the pacific course of ne
gotiajinn by giving the notice provided for
in the convention of 1827.
This is not true. Sabre (lie renewed pro
position of the American Government lo
make 49 the line of compromise, and its
i eject ion by tlyjTiiitish Embassad *r, no di
plomatic aqtfon lias been had between the
tlie public is aware of—cer
tainly jionr, tip to tbe date of the Presi
dent's message. The subject must be re
garded in this point of \ie\v. The American
Government has made a eomptomise ulj'er
I t the sake of peace —an offer of better terms
than is agreeable to a large portion of ||ie
country; and bettet, we are left lo infer, tliari
tbt President himself, would have offered
as an original proposition ; hut the Oiler was
made in obedience i > what Mr. Polk con
sidered an obligation implied by ihe course
ol this government upon severs) forqier oc
casions. This liberal offer then, may be
regarded as the ultimatum of this Govern-
Uicnt. It wqs rejected by Mr’Packenghain,
somewhat disdainfully ; and the President,
very properly, withdrew the offer, and re
commended to Congress to give the twelve
months notice to Gieat Britain, and to pro
ceed 55 diuglapd j;ad done, to extend the
laws of the Union over the country for tlip
protection of its ciiizens residing there.
Larly in tdp session, Senators Ilannegaii
and Calhoun, brought forward their resolu
tions—the fiist utterly denying ihe constitu
tional possibility of parting with a foot of
Oregon, and thereby putting further diplo
| tnatic efiqrts opt of the question ; and those
of Mr. Calhoun, conveying the idea, that.
Congress dogs not approve of Mr. Polk’s
withdrawal of ihe last offer, and is willin'.;
to accept the terms, refused by the British
M iuister. Both setts of resolutions are in
our judgment, impolitic and qntimely, aqd
we are glad they have been laid on the table.
Jf England chooses to rc open tlie negotia
tion, our government is bound to listen to
her propositions, and lo gccopd bet efforts to
adjMSt the dijfieuljy in peace. It is imp,os
; sible for qs to teijew overtures without Na
tional discredit; and while it may be per
fectly true, that tlie Oregon Territory is a
sterile waste (tlie same used to be said of
Texas) not worth one life or a barrel of gun
powder ; it is true that tbe National honor
is priceless, and shoulej only be yielded with
National existence.
Nqw, does it follow, because, ve cannot
negotiate, and England does not or will not,
that, we are bound to do nothing, and to
await tl;e pleasure of the British Cabinet
to make further overtures? G'iearlv not.
Duty to our countrymen in Oregon, forbids
it, aqd policy coipmantjs us to press the ques
tion to a settlement—the fapt ol flip dancer
it involves is thp strongest argument iu J'a
vqr of its speedy settlement.
If, then, \yp arc bgpnd R> apf, wjial ejse
can be done, but to pursue tlie advice of the
President—tq give the notice to England
and to legislate for Oregon, as if it were our
owm, at least tothe extent England lias done.
And let us ask, if if is needful t.o give thp
notice, is it not needful, that the notice should
bespeak the unanimous voice of the Naffon.
This country lia9 nothing to fear from the
comrovprsy with Great Britain, but diyuJed
counsels at home. Unanimity and firmness
will obtain for us, the Fast tprms without
war, while distraction and weakness will
but aggravate tlie demands of a Power,
whose undeiiating policy it has always been,
to obtain the utmost lhat could be extorted
from the weakness and timidity of its an
tagonists. \
It is from this view of ca*e, that we f
have been deeply sclicitu/s to. sec tlie pic •
sent crisis met by our Government and
countrymeu with huMuessand decision. \\e
are tenfold more afraid of the peaqe spijpt
of certain men and parties ip this cuyjntry,
than the stirring war-cry, raised by some,
and so humanely deprecated by othprp. We
appreciate a fully as any one can, thp bless
ings of peace. We are aware of thp. disas
trous effects that war would produce, not
only to the prosperity and die morais of this
country, but to its domestic policy, which,
with jieace, js now jn a certain train to be
firmly established upon the Free Trade anJ
Hard-money basis, which we have all our
lives contended for. We foieee that a war
might pqt qs back fifty years in our career
of p'ogress and improvement, aud ti.at a
tesiricted commerce and a re establishment
of *he paper money power, might prove
some of jts hiiter fruits. Rut, we cannot
ad|iut lhat tlie-e gieat evils, certain though
they may be, will justify a great and proud
nation, jealous of its honor and mindful of
its rights, in the craveq policy qf submission
to insult and wrong. We say. wp are afraid
of these “ Syren Songs,” of peace. We
dread to see an imtlqe prominence given to
the dangerous consequences ofa manful de
fence of the Nation's rights and honor,
while the merits of the dispute aie kept in
the back ground. It is a craven policy, that
would stamp an individual with disgrace,
in a personal issue and will have the same
effect upon this country, in-the eyes of all
Eutope. Let ;lic press, then, turn from the
contemplation of the ii>ksof preserving the
honor of tlie country, to the question of the
merits of the controve.sy, and to the en
liglitenmcn’ of the public mind, jn regard,
to what their love of country and duty as
citizens require of then). Let Abolition,
the Tariff', and abovpall. President making,
be swept out of the way, as so many cob
webs, inter, used to give obliquity so t}ie pub
lie view of the case; and let the question
be asked and answered on its owij merits ;
should trot and must nqt the notice be given?
TBE NOTICE—OREGON. AND ABOLI
TION.
It has been slated that Giddings, the
Abolitionist in Congress, was pul forward bv
the Anti-Notice party, to make a w’ar speech
in order to pepej Southern men from the
support of the Oregon policy, recommended
by the Administration. If this be true, the
means were very happily adapted to the
end, The commercial press, with scarcely
an exception, is opposed to tlie notice, on
the f.dsc ground that it will lead to hostilities.
Peace is the aliment of these papers, and a
case of difficulty could hard.y be imagined
between this country and anyoiher, in v, hicli
all their sympathies would not b” found in
favor of peace. In a question of National
honor, involvinglhe geim of a possible bos
tile collision, we should tcgaid them us
unsafe counsellors. Since Giddings deliv
ered his abolition speech on tlie Oregon
question, these Presses at the North, have
adroitly ccnmcpted Oregon with Abolition,
A thus sought U\c;ii;.st fcOißhein sympathies

dispute about Territory, between the Uni

is said, is an abolition.st and a mail-man, he
is for the notjee, and his motives must be
sinister on the o nest ion qf slavery. Does it
follow because he is in favor of the notipe
icr ih Demoniac reasons, he gives, that tve
ofilie South are to oppose it, if there are
gopd reasons lot sustaining it ? 1$ the Soptb
invited to back out of a Foreign quarrel in
which the whole JJnion is deeply concerned,
because a vjle, and powatdly
fumes and sj>its his venom at us ? Or is it
true, that the people of the Slave States
are afraid to assert the rights and honor of
the whole country, because Biitain andGid
dings threaten us with the Black Regi

’bese Sta'es would score the impututtcpJ
Yet this is the atgmpeu; alid.rc4.srd tu. tl>e

It is dangerous to assert our ‘-‘dear and- up
lues•ionable,, rights, and therefore w$ ipqpt
give them up.
But with what grace can Texas.-anrexar

annexed a large Territory upon onr Soulli
Western border; and while we had,to ham
mer it into the most hard headed- of Mr.
Clays adnerentsin the Soutli thatif was an
essential pleasure lor the protection of our
“peculiar institutionsyet {he more im
portant and enlarged ground taken, rvas that
it was a National and put a sectional niea
sure—that it involved a question, not so
much between the South and abolition, as
between the Amaijcan Government and
people and European interference and inflti
epee on uur immediate borders* That was
the great point of the struggle to annex
1 exas=—and 15 States North and South,
Kast- and West, triumphantly came for
ward and sustained it in the election of Mr.
Bulk. Not a section, but a majority of the
whole American people from all sections
grve their voice for annexation—e measure
04 National importance to all, but of peculiar
interest to the South. Now when the scene
of controversy with the same Power is
shifted from the South West to the North
West; when it is proposed to assert our right
of sovereignty over a different anti distant
portion'./ the American Empire,can we ol
the South, without the shame of sectional
littleness and craven meanness, hold back
our aid, or give a lukewarm support to the
Government at. a moment, when every
nerve should be braced to dejpand and to
have an honorable adjustment. Wp are
willing to trust the answer to the gpnerpus
hearts of the Southern people.
FRANKING LETTERS.
The 1 oatruaster General lias issued an
order to tbe city Postmaster at Washington
to the ellect that all letters or documents
tracked by members of Congress, shall be
charged with letter postage, unless it shall
appear that said iliters or packages einanu
ated directly from members themselves.—
The effect is, that all letters on which
there : s a d-fference between the handwrit
ing of the frank and that of the remainder of
the superscription, will be charged accord
ingly. If, however, on the arrival of the
letter at its destination, the receiver shall
think propel to open it, and slipw thgt it i@ a
bona fide cquunuqicatioti from a member
then the postage shall is refunded.

The discussion upon lisp Oregon question
Li\s not yet terminated in the house, und
from present indications, it will nut, I think,
come to on end in that body before some
filteen or twenty members have disbur
dened their surcharged bosoms. So much
; has already been sai !, that the speaker who
strikes from bis brain a novel idea upon the
subject may, without hazard of injustice, be
placed upon the list of original geniuses.
Already there is such a rcpetiouof the saute
ideas, (ip ijifjerent words, however,) that it
is quite a difficult las/k |q trace put ihejr
true pateuiage ; and yet, the irrepressible
eagerness to olnain the flour i$ so great, tha{
when after iijs “briefhour” one speaker takes
hi* seat, full 20 or 30 spring up.m thetf feet
jvyjtii the quickness of ligj|piing, and with a
; simultaneous shout, pall ‘! Mt. Speaker.!’’
|as though the gallery over his lieatj was
I tumbling upon’ liitp. {low Mr. Speai ier
can depidg y/ltp is entitled to the floor 15 a
| and tlo/ililess wi{) [ong remain so.
; No one can doubt that Tflr. Davis is a fair
|and honorable man— at’d ypt, I have heatfl
| some little complaint, that ip this (natter of
judging a mop” thirty claimant* Vqf the If opr,
he sotnetiriif.s makes a {iiistukr.. A certain
member from the West swore that he could
I “ get up quicker—speak quicker —and
: holler louder than apy man in the fiousp,
and yet, lie bail not bgep able lq gel a phappe
to tell his mind !”
The Speaker, in justice to himself, shopld
! propose that the gentlemen fising and cali
| ing at the same instant, should decide by iot
; who should have the fi jor—this (topld he
ijonein two or three minutes, aqd woujd
| leave no ground for cavil,
j Tite representatives, at tliis stage of the
I debate in the house, appear to be arranging
] themselves under two banners—on one is
; inscribed—“procrastination M —on the other
—“go ahead.’’ In the house the “go
j aheads” tjt piesent have the ascendancy.
; and they laypr the measure of giving
. immediate notice to England of tlte termin
ationr f tlte joint occupancy pf Pregon, and
of tukir,” cvpry possible step to meet her
anticipated iurstility. ‘j he vptocrasiinaiion”
Uteri, on the fpher band, deprecate vyar, and
maintain tljat our best policy is Ip teftain
from giving the notice, and to aid by fiery
pieansthe peopling of Oregon with Ann tipan
citizens and American children. They
think that this course will ultimately secure
! to PS “ill! of pregon,” and at the same time
I save us front the evil§ oj a war.
1 The western rnembefts are quite restive at
i tJje policy proposed by the ?‘pfocrastiuaiiori
| is:s,”and argue with much force in fav\.r of
I taking a bold, prompt, and honest stand
I against every claifii of England tq any
! portion of Oregon hplqw 54P 40’. They
: contpn.d that our Government in the nego
tiation \yith England, has made good our
j claim to ‘>all of Oregon” to 54” 40’, am) jq
principle, they cannot discover any difier
; epee between giving land and money for
tribute. Their opponents agree >yith them
as iq the justness of our clairrj, and in the
necessity of bolding on to it, but insist tljat
the best way to secure it, and by far tj ? e
most pleasant way of sccur.ng it will bg by
population.
After all, I do not believe we shall (I
mean the letter-writers and |
be able to tell, precisely, what we ought toi
do, until we tecciyc further intelligence from !
Queen Victoria’s island and her islanders.
The news of the manner in which presj-i
dent Polk’s message wili afl’cet the minis
ters pf the Queen, is loosed Jor with much
anxiety—the’tenor of that news will doubt
less dec|de jhe action pf onr legislators.
To-day, the Oregon subject cotqe qp
in the Senate. East Thursday, Mr Allerj
reported back to ifye the fssoliitiorj
relaliye to the terrpitiatjoq of the joint occu
pancy, and at the same tiijifi gave notice that
lie should call it up to day. Heat tljesame
time stated that a Senator wished, preyiops
ly to going into the discussion on ij/e reso
lution, tp bring forward nod disposa of a
preliminary question.
What tlje preliminary question was. Mr.
A. did not say—but 1 suppose it will rest
upon the doubt expressed by some Senators,
whether it would be proper for the Senate
to entertain the resolution, while (as they
think) the negotiation is not absolutely
brought to a close.
I hardly need say to you. that public
opinion is far from being ettl?d ipc <rfcs*
v ill be the result of our contro. ti.-v . .th•
. Isogland. Those who think there will be
no war, look alone to the immense sacrifice
of blood and treasure which \jriUrsu from
war, and to the supposed and comparative
unimportant territory which Iptm-Ues the
grounds of the contest. While tbpse who
deem war almost inevitable, point. t*,lhe
invariable course of Kngiqudiji all s;mil|tf
controversies —to the declarations of her l ti
lers in Parliament, to her liatred to our ip
stjtutions anti her jealousy of onr commer

Tre Car and the Press. —There is a
balancing of good and evil—ul merit and tie
merit, 111 the following paragraph ir.>iu the U.
S. Gazette, that, we publish for the information
of our readers:
“There is a discussion going on in New
York as to which is the must the
Press or the Bar of I fiat Sta’ e. This we t* ke
to be too inclusive. Which has the n est
offensive mateiials ? Neither a-a wh >le is
degenerate. The Press we know as a whole is
belter than it ever whs, but it has bad portion
that need exciasion ; and as for the Bir, why,
that is bad enough in parts. The Prgs% it
may be thought, does the most mischief, be
came it scatters far and wide its pestiferous
breath, leavingt’o other ages its evil precepts.
But let it be remembered {hat tfie bar is the
avenue to the courts of justice, on which
morals and rights r< st for their support.
