IMPORTANT FROM THE DISPUTED TER.
RrrORY!-The Bangor Wing copies an ar.
licl3 from the Woodstock IN. b. Tele-
graph, from which we learn that great ex
citemeut prevails in the neighborhood Of
the boundary line, IN consequences of the
proceedings Of the American party ofex-
pIoration. Tke Telegraph says:
We have been informed that they are
running new line east of the old boun-
dairy, cutting down and leaving a space of
from forty TO eighty feet wide, and mark
ing the United States Boundary Line
The angle formed by this new direction
orthe line is said TO be SO great that sew
eral extensive clearings belonging to our
farmers in the back settlements, have
been taken in and included as American
properly. We have heard ofseverOl farm:
losing from so 10 100 acres, and one il
particular, we have been informed, haC
been entirely included in the State o.
Maine, ard an idea held out that those
persons must become American subjects
which has caused an unusual degree o.
excitement"
The Telegraph adds, that it would not
be surprising il collision should take
place. Attempts have already been made
10 interfere and prevent the Commission
ers from proceeding, and it is probable
that before they reach St. John, they will
bo obliged to desisl The Editor is will
ing that they should explore any where
through the Province, but that they have
no right to run a line Of their own con.
struction, aud mark it as the boundary of
the United Suites.
