The Oregon Question In NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.
cial View Of the British GOvernment-(Dl.
Mons Of the English Press.
From tho London Times, March 81
In tne way oil concession and argument on the
oregon question, little now remains to be said or
done by the British government The strongest
desire has been repeatedly expressed on our side
to terminate this controversy. Our case has been
stated with such moderation, and our claims con-
fined to such narrow limits, that nothing but ex-
treme presumption, or rather a species OF hostile
infatuaion on the part of the American democrats,
could lead them to suppose we could make any
further abatement OF our rights. We are in actual
possession OF rather more OF the Oregon territory
than we have ever claimed as our own. because as
long as the JoiRt occupation lasts, the concurrent
rights Of both parties extend over the whole coun-
try. We have at our disposal ample means Of
defending our rights. We had never, at any period
IN the history OF our country less reason to recoil
from war, or 10 fear the result of a contest with
any power, but more especially with the United
States Yet we, on our side. have strenuously and
sincerely labored TO effect compromise. We have
not alluded to the superiority of our maritime
strength; from misplaced respect for the Ameri-
can government, no use has been made OF those
PUNT arguments to which alone they now appear to
oe accessible; until at length we learn, with more
contempt than surprise, that Mr.. Polk and his adj
s.ss s are embarking in course which can only
