reducing the Tariff These are now the only
questions which concern the peope-aA Othsu
were tor ever killed IN the recent election. But
these are all questions OF greatmagniude. Those
questions OF Texas and Oregon may, In their ad-
justment, lead to future war.


Marbos, the minister of Bonaparte, who sold us
LOUISIANA, tells us that ii the transfer had not
been made al the very time 1t was consummated,
England would in that same year have made a con-
quest of French Louisiana, and claimed all the
couatry on the west bank OF the mississippi river
10 the Pacific ocean, and from the Cult OF Mexl-
co 10 their Canadian possessions. The repubi-
now tell the Federasts as they did then, that
we can never suffer British intrigue and British
rule TO control the destinles of Texas


The Oregon is one OF equal gravity. Our right
TO the Territory Is indlsputable. Then what ID
there 70 negotiate abouti


said to distinguished friend of Col. Polk's IN
the West, "Sir, is this Oregon question one OF
strength ameng the people of the West, orare they
Indifferent about it, while politicians at Washing
ton are trying TO make hobby OF itv, why,
sir" he replied, "On this subject In the West, the
people are IN advance OF the politicians, and have
forced them TO come out Ia favor OF Its occupa-
tion." "Then, sir, says !, sin the present unset
tied state OF that distant country, the dif-
ficulty of marching troops through wilderness
OF such vast distance, including the difficulty of
subsisng their way, and when there, combin-
ed with our inferior naval force TO defend the
mouth OF the Columbia rlver, would IT not be more
prudent to continue the mutual occupation till our
people made the country strong by migration ~
" Not at al" said he that country purchases its
peace, parts with Its liberty"


AS II is now too late for Congress at this ses-
SION to take, any decided steps on this subject,
and from the improbabillty of the favorable
termination of It's negotiations between Mr.
Calhoun and Mr.. Pakingham, it is highly
probably Col Polk will have this question passed
over to him also, in all its length and breadth.
Very well-Be 1t so. He Is able to meet it with
Texas, or any thing else. They can dodge it them
selves, and leave HIM to settle it. He will meet 1t
honestly, frankly, firmly, cooly, without Anching
or wnclng all the reserved questions they pile up
for administration.
