LETTER FROM OREGON.

Many Of our rerders will recognize in
the writer of the following letter an old.
and valued friend, who emigrated from this
country some years since. Mr.: Burns
statements may be relied upon. With him
we think it full time our clear and unques
tionable rights to Oregon, should be as.
serted, and enforced.
For the Argus.
Mn. HAYEs.--I send you letter from
Hugh Burns Esq. "a citizen Of Oregon
which reached me on Sunday last. by the
sen route, and postmarked at New Bedford.
In connection with the interesting SUB
iect Of Oregon, wl take the liberty OF
Contradic;iay a story which has taken the
rounds Of the newspapers Of the Union, to
the effect that Mr.. A. 4. Robinson Of New
York, and another person attached to the
last company of the emigTau,5 had been
slain by the Indians. This story is culcu.
lated to create unnecessary distress, ard
deter future emigration to some extern.
II Is wholly untrue, and had its origin. as
am crediMy informed. in a quz2icai lette,
written here, and purportlng 10 be from Ore
gon.
Respectfully
ALLEN M'LANE.
