This remarkable man has astonished Con-
gress, and the whig party, and the nation,
by Bis recent avowal on the floor Of the
House relative to Oregon. He objects 10
the word 'joint-occupation." He says the
treaty now in existence between our gov
erunent and England is nothing but COM
mereial convention, and gives England
nothing but the right Of free navigation,
and free intercourse with the Indians, bui
does mot give to her any portion of the 500
eeigsty Of the country. That sovereignty
is 10 us, he says, and in us alone. HI
therefore goes in for immediate notice to b,
given to Great Britain, and, at the expira
. ton Of the year from notice, for taking pos


session Of the vhole Of Oregon. And th'
old man says, there is no danger Of wa


with England, either! He is right. Iii
idle TO suppose England would 60 TO wa


for Oregon, when such a war would no
only loose her Oregon, but all her Amer
ioan possessions. Hurra, We say, for oil
