Our ships of war, m erchant, marine and vessels
engaged in the fisheries in the Pacific Ocean will
require supplies and suitable places to repair in the
Oregon Territory, as we'll as place of shelter and
protection, during the war with any maritlme pow
err, strong fort and garrison, will, therefore, soon
be necessary, at some point near the mouth Of
Columbia River; and population in that territory
sufficiently numerous to afford them at all times
the necessary supplies: and all the arrangements
that can be made for the attainment OF that end
consistently with our relations with Great Britain
should be made without delay. And looking at
these relations, the first step for the attainment of
that important object, will be to throw into it a
brave, moral, and hardy population.
BY glance at the map the Importance of that
territory to the United States, in military point
of view, (since an easy passage of the Rocky
Mountains has been discovered) must be admitted
by all and in the opinion Of the writer, its occupa>
ton cannot be much longer delayed, consistently
with the tranquility and security of the western
states.

Extract from Mr. Fiiimores speech on The Revenue


connot now enter into the reasons for or n.
ganst the selected articles for the imposition of
duties. Though oil would agree in the propriety
Of some discrimination, no two would perhaps
think alike as to every article. No uniform rule
can be established on this subject. Every case
must stand or fall upon its own merits; and what
might be very proper at one time might be equal
ly improper at another. | doubt not some will be
for including many articles which are exempt, and
others will be Tor exempting many articles that
are included The committee were not unanim-
Gus on these subjects, and it cannot be expected
the House will be. anticipate a motion to ex-
empt tea and coffee, and | will say one word on
that subject. Tea aud coffee are hardly necessa-
ries; they rather belong TO the class of luxuries.
So MIR Woodbury. considered them, and therefore
recommended them for taxation. We can hard
ly justify ourselves in taxing the necessary food
aud clothing Of the poor man, both of which are
Indispensable to sustain life, and still exempt tea
and coffee. Let us also consider that the duties
on these articles, by the proposed bill, is so light
that those who luxuriate over good cup of tea or
coffee will never know it, 1t will be SEEM by ta-
BILE No 2, that duty of20 per cent on tea is less,
on an average, Than five and half cents per
pound whereas, by the act of 1916, [enacted by
democratic Congress- the duty ranged from
t0etuc to sirty eight GEMS per pound. And on cof-
lee it is less than Two cents per pound; but, by
the act of 1876 it was fue cents. These are du-
lies that will never be iet by the consumer.
Were he not told of it, he would never know it.
Again: if you exempt these articles, you cannot
raise means enough to carry on the Government.
