ARBITRATION AND NEapTIATioE.--The Union"
of Wednesday, considers that there is still room for
negotiations between this country and Great Britain.
/" Ii cannot be said," it remarks, with the least
appearance of TRUTH that the President by declining
the forms Of arbitration, has therefore closed the
door 70 all negotiation. Mr.. CALHOUN declinedit:
but did moi the negotiation continue Does not the
Secretary Of State in his letter declining arbitra-
ton, express the hope that the controversy between
the two countries might be atncably and satisfaco-
rily settled r.
Ii is not so much the fact that arbitration has
been declined, the forms Of arbitration, if that
phrase is preferred, which has given such serious
aspect TO the Oregon controversy but the manner
in which il was done, and the ground upon which it
was put. We need not 90 into particulars on SUBJ
ject so often referred to. But every body knows
that the barrier which stood in the way of the pro-
posal to abrae was the asserted fact OF our clear
and unquestionable title to the undivided territory
of Oregon Does not this same barrier stand in the
way of any proposition looking to partition of that
territory, or which might by any possibility result
in its division!
Arbitration might have been declined without i'm
volving this inevitable conclusion. 1t might have
been declined on various grounds which would still
have left the issue as it was. II is true, the Presi
dents declaration at the first that our title is clear
and unquestionable,' would seem to have an equally
exclusive character. But his subsequent offer Of
the forty-ninth parallel boundary neutrazed the
first declaration. The terms, however in which ar
btraton was rejected would Indicate that he has re-
assumed the position announced in the beginning
