WESTWARD Ho!

Our troops are hocking to the western territory
of Texas, under the immediate directions Of the
Secretary Of War. We publish the movements of
various corps in that direction.
Gen. Games has made, it is said, a requistion on
the governor of Louisiana for vouneers---without
any Instructions from the Secretary Of War, 1t is
believed, or without any other information subse-
quent to what was brought by the Water Witch.
But the call has had the effect of displaying the
true patriotic spirit Of the people Of Louisiana.
The volunteers Of New Orleans came forward at
once TO respond to it. Among them, is the
French general, Suy, about 60 years Of age, who
has seldom left the city. He comes forward, like
young man. to offer the services of his noble artl-
lerists, enc Of the best disciplined corps in the
United States.
Where such spirit animates the mass OF the
people, they win prove invincible

TEXAS.

The acquisition Of Texas seems to have given a
new impulse to the politicians of Europe. .Noc,
that it is accomplishedno,c that the arts of Eng
land and the cooperation of France have both been
baffled--noto, that Texas has, by the unanimous
voice Of her Congress and her Convention, and with
the triumphant reclamation of her people, preferred
uniting her destnies with our own, instead Of ac-
cepting her independence at the hands Of Mexico,
and under the guarantees Of England and Of France

on the magnificent results which il is calculated to
produce. We confne our remarks to Texas alone;
but TO Texas she under ,he treaty Of Louisi-

be, to the banks Of the Rio del Norte. We leave
il to the "Dublin Freeman, whose eloquent remarks
we publish below, to extend it's imagination to the

OREGoN.--The Encyclopedia Britannica, Tin ed
ton, 1912, contains an article on Oregon by John
Francis Smith, as follows:
"Oregon Territory, a vast extent of country be-
longing 10 the United States of North america, and
situated to the west of the Rocky mountains. Itis
bounded on the north by the British and Russian
possessions the limits Of neither power having beer
very clearly fixed. On the west it is bounded by
the Pacific; on the south, by Mexico; on the east
by the stupendous ridges Of the Rocky mountains
situated in the territories Of Arkansas and Missouri
1t may be assumed between the forty-frst and fifty
fourth parallels of north latitude, and the thirty
fourth and forty eighth meridian Of west longi-
tude.
This region is claimed by the United States, on
the ground Of priority Of discovery, examination,
and occupation. II was certainly first discovered
by the Spaniards, but they made no attempt either
to explore settle it. It's re-dscovery belongs to
Gray, an American who entered the mouth Of the
Columbia in 17909l the river being called after the
ship he commanded. Subsequently, il was explored
by navigators belonging to Great Britain and the
United States"
