The undersigned, Secretary of State of the United
States the honor acknowledge the receipt Of
note Of Mr.. Pakenham her Britannia MajestyS envoy
extraordinary and minister penipotontary dated the
10th ultimo, by which he again proposes reference Of
the Oregon question to arbitration Under his present
his last be limited in terms to the division Of the terrific
y between the parties but would extend to the question
ef their conflicting titles. There Is, however, cond
ton annexed TO this offer, which exposes Il TO the
objection in point Of fact not in FORM which pro-
mnsnty presented in the answer Of the undersigned to
Mr. Pakenham last proposal This condition s that
If neither party should be found in the opinion OF the
arbitrator possess complete title 10 the whole terri
tory there should in thet case be assigned TO each that
portion Of territory which would in the opinion Of the
srbitrating power be called for by just appreciation OF
the respective claims Of each" If the government Of
the United States should consent to arbitration upon
such condition. this might, and probably would be
construed into intimation If not direct invitation,
to the arbitrator to divide the territory between the
parties Were it possible for the President under
any circumstances, TO consent to refer the subject
to arbitration the title and the title alone, detached
from every other consideration, is tho only question
which could be- submitted. IL not confined to sin
gle point strong is the natural disposition OF afb
traitors to please both parties ,hat 10 almost every
they make compromising award We have memora-
BILE example Of this in last arbitration with Great
Britain Notwithstanding that the arbitrator, under the
terms OF the submission, clearly and explicitly
fined the decision Of which was the Inc of highlands
