probable that they believe that the rise and progress
of tins nation, in all its greatness and power, would
be more rapid by bringing on conflict between

tween the United States and England now would
lead to convulsion in all western Europe-to revo-
lutions and changes in other governments, which
would alter the face OF nations In less than five
years.


From this brief view Of the position and princ-
pies OF both the parties that are now divided oy
lnese new and important principles, II Will be seen
that unless the Oregon controversy 10 settled during
the present session OF Congress- the chances IN favor
OF war between this country and England are man.
IN the
They number eight or ten IN the Senate, and are
between fifty and sixty in the House. They GO for
the whole OF Oregon, down to 81 40, without COM
damages to be paid to England. They are the rep
resentatlves OF that portion Of the country which
passes tor the popular and energetic Anglo-Saxon
race In Its highest state ofperfection large portion
OF this population is TO be found in New England and
western New York, and in the northwestern States


In the event OF war, they entertain the idea OF
covering the northern lakes with war steamers and
invading Canada with 90 600 rifles, and settling this
question IN lsss than sixty days. Simultaneous

down to Halifax and capture that naval depot stimuli

the war spirit could be raised in the northern and
western States, and Of the best troops IN the
world could be precipitated upon the British Colo

This new movement, therefore, it 1t should be
brought out by Congress-, comprehends most ex-
traordinary and general revolution throughout the
nations of Europe, as well the settlement of the
Oregon question; and also the question to the
tervenon OF European nations in the affairs OF thif
continent, which a war would determine. It is ex.

give us all the British Provinces on the Atlantic
with Oregon, and leave opportunity in time "a
acquire California, and then to settle our affairs
with Mexico; besides renewing on grand scale
the principles Of the French revolution in all the
western monarchies Of Europe.


Animated with these magnificent and terrible
views, do not believe the war party in Congress
will recede. They are yet in a minority; but il
they will influence the President, in the White
House, to adopt their views and protract in conse
quence, thereof, the position Of the Oregon ques-
ton, after this session. they may reach position
in the country which nothing can affect We are,
therefore, in one of the most interesting POSITIONS
and turning points, not Of any one nation, but in
the family OF nations, and verify believe that the
peace OF the whole world depends and hangs upon
the settlement Of this Oregon question.
