MIR. CALHOUN AND THE OREGON
QUESTION, IN Is43.

The following is the substance ofihe re-
marks of Mr. CALHOUN, in the Senate, in
ls43, on the proposition for the Immediate
occupation of Oregon. Alter expressing an
opinion that Great Britain wouId not peace
ably consent to such exclusive occupation,
he explained his view oil the policy which
should be pursued.
''Mr. Calhoun, however, cautiously guard
ed himself against the inference that he
would abandon this territory. He did not
agree with his friend, Mr.. McDufie, that it
was worthless on the contrary he consd-
cred it OF great value-the trade, even now,
was highly important, and the time was not
far distant when it would be immeasurably
50, from the consequences of those very ad-
vances which Great Britain had made in
China and elsewhere. But in proportion as
he held it valuable, he was SO much the
more opposed 10 this dangerous policy -
s'Am asked" said Mr.. Calhoun, "what
should be done? I would reply, TIME is
acting with US Time will do all for Won
which you desire; aud cheaply too: without
one drop of blood, or one cent of treasure
Our population is growing-il is pushing for
ward TO the Rocky Mountains. Within 30
years, our frontier has receded one thousand
miles, and our population increased from
eight millions TO eighteen millions. At the
end of Mr.. Monroe;s administration, pro-
position was made to colonize Wisconsin
with Indians--il is filed with an industrious
and enierprizing population of our own race
Such are some of The efforts Of the steady
progress of'rime. Adopt this wise and mas
terly policy of inactivity, and your people
will march quietly to the gorges oflhe Rock,
Mountains. Your present situation and thai
of England will then be reversed g. YOU vii
be supported by hardy and courageou:
population, ready and able to support you
rights. Our present position, Mr.. Calhoun
thought, was the most Gig be we could oc
cupy. Every administration had acquiescec
in this opinion, and he implored gentlemen {,
let well enough alone. 1t preserves peace
without permitting Great Britain's title {
mature" -

WHEN THE BLOOD is IN AN UNSOUND
CONDITION it Isas ready for infection, as land
ploughed and narrowed to receive the allotted
grain. Those who are wise will therefore COM
mence the publication of their blood without de-
lay: and those who are already attacked with
sickness should do the same. BRANDERTHs PILLS
are an eilectual puriyer of the blood, rs thou
sands of persons can testify who continue TO cure
themselves OF Colds. Coughs, Headaches, Rheu-
matte Affections, Liver COMPLAINTS, Costiveness
and the host of those indications of the body OF
the blood's being out of order, simply by perse
veringly using Brandreth's Vegetable Universal
Pills. Females will find them to secure that state
OF health which every mother wishes to enjoy.
The weak, the feeble, the nervous and the del
icate. are in a few days strengthened by the use
of BRANDRE PILLS, and the worst OF
complaints effectualy removed by perseveT-
ence without the expense of physcian.
These pi lis are sold by DANIEL WOOLSEY
at Evansville, Ia, and by Agents in most OF the
villages in the United States.

or The New York Evening Post, remark
ing upon the reports of active preparation
going on at the English dock yards, of which,
probably, having recently returned from Eu-
rope, he has had some opportunity of person
al observation, does not attach so much i'm
portance to them as others do in reference
to the existing dispute between the United
States and Great Britain on the Boundary
question. But he takes advantage of the
occasion 10 administer TO his Democratic
friends the following salutary and timely ad-
monilion:
"But, although We think Great Britain in
no haste to engage, in hostilities with the
United States, Just as we believe that our
own Government is not disposed rashly to
precipitaie the country into war, there is
get something TO be learned from her exam
pie. lfa war should unhappily grow out of
the controversy, Great Britain will be prepar-
ed Tor it-our own country. unless Congress
gives the subject its immediate and serious
attention, will not. Our seaports will be
found without defence, our coast unproiect-
ed, and our commerce viii offer rich prey
to the enemy. Valor we lack not, bui it is
volor uuorganized and undisciplined; means
. and resources we have in abundance, bHt
the means are moi ready to be applied, and
the resources are yet to be called forth. II
is for Congress 10 bethink itself, before the
session closes, how our pOpulOus and active
sesporis are 10 be protected against descent
from the enemy. The most judicious pre-
parations that we can hope TO make would
still leave the disadvantage on our side al
the commencement oil the contest, tho we
might expect that when the spirit of the ma.
ton was once reused, all DEFICIENCIES of this
kind would speedily be repaired and all disas
tiers retrieved.n

SOUTHERN MANUFACTURES.
The South Carolina Chronicle OF a recent date

The South Carolina Chronicle OF a recent date
has the following:
"One of The leading principles of the Whig
party of the South, has been the establishment
and encouragement oil manufactures, especial
ly these ior the manufacture OF cotton. For
years they contended for this principle, while
they have been opposed by The opposite party,
on the ground that the Southern region was a
dopted by ma ture for agricultural. and not man
u1acturing purposes; that any change from the
raising of Two or three staples, and the cuiiva
ZION ofthe SOIL would be detrimental to the in
terests of the Staies.'' That paper predicts thai
the Wing principle will triumph yet in South
Carolina. So we opine, and the evidence OF this
fact accumulates daily. 1t is really refreshing
to such views advocated in The Palmetto
State.
