MAN LOST!

Mr.. LEVI COLEMAN, son of Mr..
ADoLPH COLEMAN, of this county,
left Mr.. SAM'L GIBBONS, in Page CO.,
(for whom he had been working,) to
visit his father, who lives near this
place, on Monday the 10th inst. 1t
was observed that his mind was some
what deranged at the time. When he
arrived at the ore-bank, near Caroline
Furnace, in the Fort, he met a gentle
man and lady, when he Jumped from
his horse, and precipitately fled to the
mountain. He was seen several times
during the same day lower down the
Fort, but has not been heard of since.
He had on blue cloth coat and panta :
looms and black fur hat-he is about 5
feet 8 inches nights well built, and has
black hair and black eyes. Any infor-
nation respecting him will be grateful
ly received by his afflicted parents.

which the opinion is confidently ex-
pressed, that unless President Polk
beats a retreat from the position he has
taken on the Oregon question, war
with England is inevitable. The en-.
suing winter will probably settle the
question; but war will cripple both
countries and demoralize both commu-
mites. May heaven avert it withoutths

THE OREGON QUESTION.

II seems to be evident, by this time,
that the general Government intends
10 assert the right of the United States
to the whole of Oregon, up to 81 de.
grees. The Washington Union
speaking officially, no doubt-says:
'Tbe whole of Oregon or none
this is the only alternative as an issue
of territorial right. We wholly deny
the break in the American title at lati-
tude 40 deg. We hold tina: our title
from 40 deg. to 81 deg. 40 min. is one
title, and, as we believe, perfect title
against the world. AS the question
has been discussed for quarter of
century between US and England, we
are not aware ofone argument-scarce-
ly of one phrase purportirg to be an
which carries our title up
to 40 deg. and there stops. We claim
as matter If right the territory drained
by the Columbia river. In the view
of the law of nations, this territory be-
ing unoccupied, has its distinctive
character and union as one region, in
the fact that il is so drained. And as
one region, we own it or do not own
it, M
The Union also denies that any prop
osition was ever made by the British
Government, to let Oregon remain III
statue quo for twenty years, and then
her destiny to be decided by the wishes

From the Kanawha Republican.
Internal improvement Meeting.

AT public meeting held by the
citizens of Kanawha at the Novem-
Der term, 1S45, of the county court
thereof, to take into consideration the
interests of Virginia, as connected with
the prosecution and completion of the
great central line of improvement,
which has SO long been in contempla-
ton by the State; Philip R. Thomp-
son was appointed President, and An
drew Parks Secretary of the meeting.
Upon the motion of Geo. w. Sum
mers, after explaining BRIEFLY the OBJ
jects of the meeting, it was determin-
ed that committee of FIVE be appoin-
ted to draft resolutions for the consid-
Grafton of the meeting. The president
appointed the following gentlemen, to-
wit: George W. Summers, Benjamin
Il. Smith, John Lewis, James L. Carr,
and James c. Mcfarland. After a
briel interval, the committee, by their
chairman George w. Summers, repcr-
ted the following preamble and resolu-
tons:
WHEREAS a determination has
been recently manifested, and it is be-
lieved now to be entertained, by a
portion of the citizens of Eastern Vir-
ginia, and which has been the more
especially indicated by the efforts of a
portion Of the public press at Rich
mond, and by certain resolutions adopt
ed at a public meeting held in that city
on the 22nd October, to divert the peo-
pie of this commonwealth from their
long cherished and patriotic purpose Of

donment Of the Central line, or any
part OF it, as gross injustice TO the
Western Counties, invested in that
route. The Baltimore and Ohio rail
road Company would have gladly ia
ken the route proposed and construct
ed their improvement to the Ohio Riv-
er through the Kanawha Valley
Virginia claimed il as her own, a pearl
too precious TO be yielded to another,
and appealing 10 our feelings
of State pride, asked US TO accep,
her pledge that she would do
the work herself, we took that pledge,
and relied upon tive Invested our
money upon the promise that the i'm
provement should be brought to u.s.
We now demand the redemption Of
that pledge, or that the State confess
her unwillingness or inability 10 redeem
J it, and that she forthwithe open wide
her territory to the enterprise of Mary
land.
The above resolutions were ably
and eloquently seconded and sustained
by Benjamin H. Smith, Isaac Read
and James M. Laidley, and unani
mously adopted by the meeting. AT
ter which Mr.. Read offered the
following resolution, which was like
wise unanimously adopted by the meet
ing:
Resolved, that the resumption of the
Great Central Improvement in 1888
after its failure in Is was brought
about mainly by the Influence of the
counties and towns east Of the Ridge,
contiguous to the James river and its
tributaries; that the corporation of the
west was secured by means Of Their
promises and pledges to carry through
the work, and upon the faith ofthose pro.
misses and pledges Western Virginia has
forgone and denied herself great and
important advantages; that the city of
Richmond and the town of Lynchburg
were the most lavish of promises, zeal
! Gus and active of those eastern friends,
and that steps now taken in those quar-
tiers to bring about virtual abandon
ment of the work ,canno but be ;egard-
ed by this meeting as gross breach OF
faith.
James M. Laidley, then offered the fol-
lowing resolution, which was adopted:
I Resolved, tn at the Secretary furnish
copy ofthe preamble and resolutions
ado pied by this meeting, to The Senator
from this district, and to the Delegate
from this county, who are hereby TT
quested to lay The same before the
Senate and House of Delegates at the
ensuing meeting of,he General Assem-
bly,.
The folIowidg resolution was then
offered by George W. Summers, and
adopted:
! Resolved, that this meeting approve
the objects of the convention proposed
to be held on the 81 of this month at
Barboursville, in the county of CabelI,
and John Lewis, Andrew Parks, Ez-
ra Walker, Isaac Read, james H. Fry,
James M. Laidly, E. w. Newton,
James L. Carr, Benz. S. Thompson,
John Hansford, Jr. and A. w. Handy,
are hereby appointed delegates to rep
resent Kanawha county in said Con-
vention.
Upon the motion of James L. Carr,
1t was resolved that the Kanawha Re-
publican, the Richmond and Lynch
burg papers, and the papers generally
along the contemplated line of the
James River and Kanawha improve
ment, be requested to publish the pro-
ceedings and resolutions of this meet
ing.
Upon motion, the meeting then ad-
journed.

tributaries. Sooner than compromise
upon any such terms as England would
accept, we would prefer that the claims
of the u. S. should be surrendered,
sans eereqnonie; but we would sooner
suffer all the horrors Of war, pestllence,
and famine than do either.
But there are those, again, who fear
lessly and faithfully defend the govern
ment of the United States, in its patri-
otto determination to defend and pro-
tect every inch of our soil, and sustain
the honor and dignity Of the nation at
home and abroad. With the bold and
undaunted spirit Of an AMERICAN
FREEMAN, standing upon his Glbraltar
Of lnallenable rights, they parry the
thrusts of the proud, naughty, English
royalists, and look with supreme con-
tempt upon their american {! sympa-
thise.s. They heed not the cry Of
WAR preparations in England which
are Numbered across the ocean, for the
two-fold purpose of alarming the timid
and testing the tone Of public feeling
in the U. S. and influencing the action
! Of Congress-. The name Of this latter
class is 'LEG1oN;' and their language
is, sour Country, ALWAYS RIGHT -
but, Our COUNTRY, right or acrong!"
This is the language of the true Amer
lean patriot, and we believe ii to be the
language of majority Of the nation.
But we must close our remarks upon
this subject for the present. In few
days Congress will meet, when we shall
be more definitely informed Of the as
pect of our foreign relations-whether
the red crested Mars is brandlshing her
flaming sword over our heads, or whe-
ther the goddess Of peace shall smile
