Spaoish NJ inc TO tho Pacific Ocean, for the
following ,esons, To wit;
First, The long add dangerous passage
round Cope Horn could be avoided. The
distance 10 tho North Yves, Coast and the

Secondly, II affords 40 easy and short com

completely lay open to the use and control Of

with the facility Of planning and prc,ecriog

fertile regions Of the west. The American
empire, and the commercial enterprise Of q

circumstances might require. Our fellow
citizens would be enabled TO participate deep
" In the rich traffi, OF The East Indies, es-
pccially as that trade could be carried on by
the whale, seal and fur found on the North
