Ma. ApAMs.-The speech Of MIR.
Adams on the Oregon question, like
every thing else that comes from him,
was listened TO with deep interest. The
views he took upon tha, question, while
they disappointed many Of his political
and personal friends, could not fail to be
acce eptable 10 the advocates for the whole
Of Oregon or war. The following ex-
tracts from his speech, we copy from the
N. Y. Express. Mr.. Adams said
lie was ready 10 vote for any question
OF notice, from the most bold to the most
timid which had been presented to the
House. lie founded one claim 10 the
Oregon, put upon the declaration made
| in the 26lh, 9th and cath verses Of the
first chapter Of Genesis, and which he
desired the Clerk 10 read. They were
read accordingly, and their effect upon
the House was most amusing. From
this authority to 60 forth and multiply
the earth, we derived our first title. The
foundation of all human title to all human
possession rested here.
The following are the passages OF
scripture quoted by MIR. Adams:
And God said, Let US make man in
our own image, after our likeness and
let him have dominion over the fish Of
the sea, and over the fowl oflhe air, and
over the cattle, and over the earth, and
over every creeping thing that creePeth
upon the earth.
So God created man in his o,cn image
in the image of God created he him
male and female created he them.
And God blessed them and God said
unto them BE fruitful, and multiply,
and replensh the earth, and subdue It ;
and have dominion over the fish Of the
sea, and over the fowl Of the air, and
over every living thing that moveth upon
the earth.
Mr.. A. quoted also the 9th verse o.
the Cd Psalms
Ask Of me, and l shall give thee the
heather for thine inheritance, and the
u,termost parts ofthe earth for thy posses
sion.
Mr.. Adams said :
The strongest ground Of all titles was
that Of possession and occupation. Whe'
zoe had this, our title to The ,chole of Orego,
would be clear and incOnieslible
