9 AS the news OF the day, sit down to in.
form you of one of the most atrocious piece,
OF French iInpudence, that perhaps Las hap
pened since the days of Genet
Some time since arrived here scb'r
called Nos. belonging, IS is PRETENDED, to
the emperor OF France, entering on plea OF
distress she was put into the hands of the
carpenter, and her crew turned over to the
brig Diligence, then in port. 1t was soon
discovered, that No S, YVES the schooner Ey.
change, belonging to Mr.. M Fadon and Dir.
Greetham, of your town, seized some time
since in France, and fitted out without con
demnation. On that plea she was last week
seized, and this day judge Peters gave tie
parties their first hearing. The Frenchmen
employed no lawyer to appear for them, bat
soon after the business commenced, the French
consul handed the judge paper in form of
protest, against the libellants and the court,
saying, THAT IF THEY CONDEMNED THE
SCHOONER, Els MASTER WOULD LOOK TO
THEM lTHE COURT FOR INDaMNIFic ALTON,
&c. Judge Peters treated it with becomiDe
Indignation, as an insult to the court, and
SAID, that he had never seen or heard of any
thing like it since the days of Genet.
Dallas, the attorney of the district COM
ing IN, he peters, handed it to him and
told him he might do with it what he pleas
ed but it should moi go on the files of the
court.
1t is supposed the paper will be handed
to the President at Washington, and then we
shall see how far French influence will 60

protest, when you will see it, and more

HOUSE Of REPRESENrATIYES S.
JANUARY IA, 1910.
DEBATE
wan


On the Dir "to enable the PEOPLE of the TER
ritory Of Orleans, TO form a constitution
and state government, and for the ad-
mission ef such state into the Union, on
an equal footing zvith the original STATES
and for other PURPOSES"
The bill being on its final passage
Mr.. Pitkin said, he had heretofore sta
ted. that he had some objections to the bill
which he had intended 70 have stated 20 the
House, when the bill was capable of amend
ment but that he had not an opportunity SO
to do. have stated, (said Mr.. P) that
1t was probable that there would be some
dllhculty between Orleans when il becomes
STATE, and the United States, respecting
the extent OF the state westward. stated,
that the United States, in consequence of
the purchase of Louisiana with the same
extent that it had when Spain and France
possessed 1t, had claimed the territory as
lar as the river called Rio Bravo, that
the negotiations on this subject between the
governments ofthe United States and Spain
were probably unknown to many members
OF the House, and that it required a
pretty accurate knowledge of them, of the
extent of the claim and OF the geography of
the country, to understand precisely what
meant l stated that there was an extent
OF coun ny between meridi nal line pas
sing tn ough Natchitoches and Rio Bravo.
OF four or five hundred miles in width,
which the u. States had claimed as being
cir property. In the negotiations between
the two countries, the United States offered
to cede all the country between the Rio
Bravo and the COLORADO running east of il.
TO Spain, on the condition that Spain would
cede to the United States all the territory
west OF the PerdidO. This proposition was
rejected. Our commissioners were instruct
ed to assert our Title as far as the Rio 3 avo
OF at least, to the Bay of St. Bernard It is
so stated by the President of the IT, States,
IN the IntroductioD to the compilation of the
land laws; in which he states, that we I'M
questonably have a right to the country as
tar west as the sources Of The rivers VIII cii
tall into he Mississippi. to the SO rces OF
the Red river, Arkansas and Missouri ::
mat with respect TO the territory Immediate
ly bounding on the Guiph of Mexico. we
have claims to the Province OF Texas"
which It is well known is very large pro
vince. BY the bill before us, according TO
this construction, jus SdCtion is extended o.
yer this very province and it may be and
~ fact will be, in the power o the state of
Orleans to say, that our limits extend so
tar. and therefore to extend their iurisdicti.
on in like manner. In my apprehension,
therefore, il rs important, while we are ma
King this terr tory state, where thu boun.
!ailes are disputed, to retain in our own
lands, the power OF settling them. l. is
-oown that by tue law which passed pro
ding tor the government If the territo-
ny OF Orleans, We had Liberty to alter the
