The following extract, from the Speech Of NJ
Berger, recently delivered in the French Cham.
bers, is worthy of attention. M. Berger is one
of the most renowned statesmen Of France, and
never speaks before weighing wei! what he ad
vances The reader will perceive that he aludes
to the Oregon question, and predicts that England
will yield to a settlement of that question on the
49th parallel: 49,. .ie ,as s..


snow, the Americans claim that their right shall
be recognized up to the 49th degree; they grant
that the 49th parallel Of latitude shall be saken as
their frontier limit. They grant that because they
wish hold the poris the harbors, and the access
10 the Pacific. The English are willing to grant
them only the mouth of the Columbia, and they
say the navigation shall be free-that is, England
would deprive the Americans of the ports and at
the last state of the question, this is the English
proposition: "There is small point of land pre-
'eentrng good port, we will yield it to you"


|, "1he Americans have replied, "you mock US
We will have none Of your ports, surrounded on
every side by British possessions We will carry
our frontier at least up lo,the 49th parallel" And
so negotiations have ceased, and we are told that
they cannot be resumed D. .F-


."They will be resumed. The AMERICANS WILL
NOT YIELD; England apiH yietd. Prolonged SEN
sation5l l. could wish that this question were
wholly FRENCH. Icould wish that we had been at
the point which the Americans are approac hing
TO yield nothing, and TO throw back the word which
was hurled at France by the mouth OF Lord Mel
bourne. CSensalion-loud applause at the left.
Certainly, gentlemen, there will be no war. Ne
gotiations will be resumed. There will be no ar
biraion because arbitration was rejected last year.
aud there are now no arbiters. France might have
been this arbter, had you reserved yourselves. II
you had shown no complaisance-if you had not
compromised your negotiator in the bad negotia-
tious of the English negotiator; If you had not
made the EngIishman the bearer Of your despatch
es; if you had not become responsible for The
English agents threats of war; ; you might have
had the honor, if arbitration were accepted of be-
ing the 'arbters between the United States and
England But you have robbed yourselves in ad-
vance of this honor. You have compromised your
position 100 far. .-.-..- p ..... 5-r-
