disclaimng lis authorship most cordially concurs.

army or any of the ordinary instruments Of con-
quest, to extend their sovereignty nations yet
unborn. The scheme for the Annexation Of Tex.
as is the most decided ster they have made in this
directions; but this is only the prelude 10 their ul-
terror designs. The claim TO the exclusive pos
session of the Oregon territory is another iodica
lion of the same policy; it will be followed by an
attack, either by force or by fraud; on California.
On all these points the same Unlimited spirit Of ag-
grandzemen prevails. For the projection of the
British dominion in North America ample means
exist; and, indeed. the possession Of the Oregon
territory by the Hudsou's Bay Company, under
The joint conditions of the convention Of 1918, is
practically conclusive the point. But in pro-
vinces in which no European power has any direct
concern, the only cheek oihe rapacous encroach-

THOMAS LLOYD EsQ. We copied an arti
Gle some time since from New York papo
which stated, that Thomas Lloyd, Esq, late
Surveyor of the port of Baltimore, had no
only made personal application to the Presi
dent to be continued in his office, but had pro
cured the intercesSons in his behalf Of numor
Gus friends. Justice TO Mr. Lloyd require,
that we should state the facts as they have
| been communicated to us. We are informed
that Mr. Lloyd never solicited the office from
President Tyler; but on the contrary declined
to receive it, until his friends, Tor at least those
who protested to be his friends insisted upon
his accepting the appointment. On his induc-
ton into office he was warmly pressed to pro-
scribe those under his control, which he refused
to do and thereby gave offence. He was the
only gentleman appointed to office by Pres-
dent Tyler, who received the unanimous con-
frmaton of the Senate. On the election of
Mr.. Polk he was disposed to resign his situa-
tioH, bat was over-persuaded to continue; but,
when he saw the rumor published, that he
would probably be discharged, he Immediately
nclosed his commission to the President, and
requested his acceptance of his resgnation.-
Subsequently, on seeing the statement in the
public prints, that he had personally and by
his friends, made great efforts to induce the
President to continue him in Office, he address
ed letter to the President, asking him to do
him the Justice to enable him to contradict the
rumors which were alloat. No answer having
been received to this letter, second was for
warded to tho same effect, but with no better
RESULT is therefore considered necessary that
the facts should be made known in this way
Mr.. Lloyd is impressed with the belief that
some of his pretended friends endcavorcd to
excite prejudice against HIM in the mind of the
president, by referring to his former connection
with the wing party; and, as there were no less
than seven applicants for his Office, he has lit
tie doubt that some of them made use of such
arguments against him. lie has never sought
office, and retres from the one which was vo-
luntary conferred upon him by President Tyler,
without the slightest regret. He endeavorcd
to discharge his duties with punctualitv and fl
deity, and has yet to learn that he did not sue
coed. In short, lie comes out of Office with
clean hands and a quiet conscience; and he
hopes that all other public officers may be en-
abled to do the same. lie is fond of riding a
good horse; and if he supposed that The Presi-
dent might have like disposition, there was
nothing criminal in the idea. But as to the RI.
diculous story which has been circulated, that
he expected to jockey the President by the ten
der of horse, it is one of those fancies which,
however it may amuse the lovers of gossip,
can make no impression upon the man of inte-
gritty and good sense.
