To the Editor Of the Union:

10 the Editor of me Unton:
.... WASHINGTON, Jan. 7th, lS45.
have just seen your paper of last evening, and
observe in the publication Of my article on Oregon,
some verbal errors, which are of no consequence
Two errors Of fact appear, which wish corrected
The distance from New York, around Cape Horn,
to the mouth of the Columbia, and thence to China
is stated to be Is, 500 miles. 1t should be 23,50t
miles; and this is the distance, given by the Hon
J. G. Calhoun in his speech in the Senate tire,
years ago. 1t is very easy to mistake figure tire,

There is another and much greater eiror---mDe, M

that, had the proposed line of communication from
New York to China been completed shortly afte
possession Of the territory was restored to us
(l6l8,) we should, in the last twenty years togeth

In our paper Of the 18th ulL, We published stat ,

made in 1910, when they proposed to open sol Of
new books, and to reduce the expenses Of the gov

Of our article:

That his late administration. instead Of diminishing
debt expenses. aud taxes had increased them.
That the present administration had paid on about
million and quarter OF this debt and anordng every

To our article, the N. Intelligsncer with disturbed
equanlmity, attempted to reply. But it could not
summon daring enough to deny the truth OF
either Of our propositions. Il taely admitted their
truth Having no answer 10 statements, il adroiuy
attempts TO parry the blow, by making assault
upon MIR. Van Burens administration. II ronews tho
charges OF exuavagance, which have ohen been re-
futed. The Intelligencor, in its real to screen its
friends by assaling its political opponents, omitted
to inform its readers that Mr.. Van Buren, reduced
our ordinary expenses more than any President had
done since tho formation Of the government az the fol-

THE BUNDELCUND ESSAYS.

IL will be seen by notice In our advertising col
umns Of to-day, that these valuable essays hav,
been put to press by the Messrs. Gideon, Of hi.
city, who will DO prepared 70 answer all orders fol
them received before the 25th instant. They fll q
pamphlet Of IS pages, and are afforded at the very
low price Of 81 per 100 copies. We understand
that large edition has been subscribed for by mem
bers Of Congress, and that orders are coming ia
every day from private citizens residing in different
parts Of the Union. We are truly rejoiced to heal
thai these papers are 10 receive so extensive cir
eulaton among the people. They cannot be too
widely circulated. They should be placed ia
the hands Of every farmer, mechanic, and work
ingman, wing or democrat. They explain the ope.
rations Of the present tariff and of the proteetiy,
system, upon those classes Of our eountrymen ia
the ciearest manner, showing, in propositions sue
einctly stated, and sustained by impegnable ar,
ray Of facts, the tendency Of the tariff system to OPP
press and degrade the Masses while 1t enriches tn,
few, and lhus clothes them with the power and ar
rogaace Of wealth. We think lbal we may also
safely say, that the politician will find in these es
says an ample store-house OF material from which
he can arm himself in his warfare against a system
that is robbing one section of the country and
eniching another-plundering all elasscs and az.
grandZiDg fcw-and which is doing more TO in-
crease The disparity of rank and condition among lhe
people than all other causes put together. We re.
peat that these essays eanpo be too widely circu-
lated.
We have this evening received a copy Of "Bun.

the Messrs. Gideon. We recommend il TO public
