and they betray him into tho most anu.

and seems willing TO coquet with forty,
mae, then, alarmed at the idea of conces.
sion, abuses tho Wings, bounds of TO the
north, and talks even Of sirty.one. Thus,
IN painful inccr,itude as to the ultimate
action Of the President, he yibrates be.
tween the extremes, settling at no point,
but mere thermometer, indicating from
gay 10 day the varying temperature Of the
Oregon feeling and prospects.
