 To fhe Editor of tbe Union
 SIR; Having recently returned from an ex- cursion to the East and the North, take ad- ditional pleasure in commencing anew mv brief numbers on Oregon; especially as find they have been farther copied from your cx- cellent paper, and more generally read than | had expected.
 Hereafter expec, to be less engaged, as the whirlvind of excitement is now subsi- ding. and my calls not so frequent. and hope to be able to do better justice to this interes- ting subject. And here, sir, allow me to re- mark, il IS most gratifying to witness from the extreme West to the extreme East, such a oneness of sentiment and expression upon this Oregon question. Oregon Is rising as it regards iis intrinsic worth-its national iln- portance begins to b. seen and acknowledc- ed-ils natural and commercial advantages are now dwelt upon-ils saluhrious, mild, and agreeable climate, Is ! theme of pleasing interest n conversation by thousands; and l am satisfied if our Congress can be induced to act timely, Oregon will receive large ac- cesstohs to'her numbers the coming year.

 It is grateful to my feelings 10 find, from indications that have appeared, that this ques- ton wilFn be a party question. Old and venerable men of the whig party have spo- ken, and willvoie with Us; and for the req son that they feel il their duty to de, whilst equally respectable members ot lhe demo- cratic party hadspoken, and will yote against Us, for the reason that duty seemed 10 them to point that way.

 WASHINGTON, December 27, 1916.
 An attentive consideration of tho present state of affairs, with relfenee 10 the Oregon, question. has determined the British Goyern- ment to instruct the undersigned, her Britain nic Maesly's envoy extraordinary and min sler pleajPoteutiarY, again to represent Ill pressing terms to the government ol the t.. States the eypedieney of referring the whole question of an equitable division of that ter ritory 10 the arbitration of some friendly sovereign Of State.
 Her bIajesy's government deeply regret the failure ofall their efforts to elecla friend ly settlement of the conflicting claims by di- rectnegotiation between thGtw governments. They are still persuaded that great adTan- tage5 would have resulted to both parties from such mode of settlement, had Il been practicable, but there are difficulties now i'll the way in that course of proceeding which 1t might be tedious to remove, while the impor- lance of an early settlement seems to become at each moment more urgent.
 Under these circumstances, her Maie ty's government think that resort to arbitration is the most prudent, and perhaps, tie only feasible step which conld De taken, and the best calculated to allay the existing efieryes- cence of popular feeling which might other wise greatly embaHass the eGofls oi both go- veruments to preserve q friendly uadersian- ding between the two countries.
 The government of the United States will see in the proposal which the undersigned is thus instructed to make, proofof lhe conf. dence of the British government in the jus tiee of their oWA claim. They will also see in il a proof of the readiness of the British government to incur the risk of d great sacrifice for t1e preservation of peace and ol their friendly relations with the United States. II is made in spirit of moderation and fair ness of which the world will judge
 The British government confidently hope that the government of the United States will not rejecta proposal made with such lfend- ly intention, and fora purpose so holy.
 There is nothing io il, they are convinced not perfectly compatible with lhe siretest re- gard for the honor and just interest of both parties, particularly Hhen il is considered oi what small value to either Is thc portion ol territory which in reality forms the subject oI controversy, compared with tho importance ol preserving a state of peace and good will be- tween two such nations
 The undersigned takes the advantage ol this opportunity 10 renew to the Hon James Buchanan the assurance of his high consider alion R. PAKENIlAM.

the sincerity of his disclaimers Tn our recent conversation, do not think 1t ought to be assumed by any one that IwarIike prepara- lions upon such scale as. that upon which they are undeniably making here could not have even an indirect reference to the possi- ble contingency of rupture With us. And at the same time 1t is perfectly obvious that they are in a great degree, and especially so far as they consist of an augmentation in the number of steam-yessels and of the naval marine generally, pfecisely y of the character to be the most appropriate and the most use ful ill war with our country. l am not prepared to say, nor do deem it material to decide, how far we have a right to expect an explicit disclaimer oi the character and pur
 poses of the warlike preparations now mak- in6-by Great Britain under the circumstances. They may be the dictate of various motives of policy, and the result of many causes; and without attempting 10 assign to each is particular influence, ] am by no means pre- pared to admit that the apprehension of diff faculties with the United States had no share in them; and it is very clear that if a rup- ture with the United States should grow out of our present difficulties, this country will be as fully and edectually prepared for it at all points, and for all possible purposes, as if thai, and that alone, had been the object oi all her warlike preparations. She will be in a situation to act and strike as promptly and signally as she could have been with her en- ergies exclusively directed to that end; and feel it my duty to add, that not to expect, in case rupture becomes unavoidable, that this government. thus in complete armor, will promptly and vigorously exert her utmost power to i4hict the utmost possible injury upon our country and all its interests, would not be doing justice to such a crisis.

 The undersigned, Secretary of State ol the United States. has the honor to acknowledge the receipt of the note of AIr. Pakenham, her Brliannic Majesty's envoy extraordinary and minister plenipotentiary, dated the 27th ult., by which, under Instructions from his gov ernment, he proposes to lhe government of the United States ''the expedency of refer ring the whole question of an equitable div lsion of that (ihe Oregon territory to the arbitration of some friendly sovereign or Staten
 The undersigned has submitted this note to the President, who after having bestowed upon Ii that respectful consideration so cmi- nently due to any proposition emanatng from the British government, has instructed him to give 10 Il the following answer
 The British government do not propose to refer to arbitration the question of the title 10 the Oregon territory, claimed by the two powers, respectively. IL is proposition to refer t. a friendly sovereign or State, merely the partition or ''equitable division" of that territory between the parties. IL assumes Inc fact that the title of Great Britain 10 portion of the territory is valid, and thus takes for granted the very question in dispute. Under this proposition, the very terms of the sub mission would contain an express acknow- ledgment of the night of Great Britain 10 a portion oi the territory, and would necessar- ily preclude the United States from claiming the whole heioFe the arbitrator. This, tao, m the ,iaee oi the note of the undersigned to Mr. Pakenham of the 30th August last, by which the President had asserted in the mos solemn form, the title of the United States fo the whole territory. Even if there were no ether conclusive reasons for declining the proposition, this alone would be teemed sui ficient by the President

 We commend our candidate for Congress to the people, as gentleman well qualified to discharge the arduous duties Of that station, with credit to himself, and honor to his constituents. Few will

 FlRe.-Betweon aud 9 clock nn We'd nesday night last, the cry offre was heard in our Streets. IL was discovered to be in a house belonging to Col Ashley, and occupied by Mr. Paul Collier, as dwelling, and pro- duce Grocery establishment, on the corner ol Elm and Cumberland Streets. The building being an indifferent frame, the fire had spread almost throughout it, before the citizens could reach the pace-ihe building was en- tirely consumed. The fire originated by ae- eident, having first caught in back-room or kitchen. Through great exertion of the cili- zens it was prevented from doing further had t not been for the rain and sleet that had fallen that evenug-together with the snow that was falling at the time, great loss of property would undoubtedly have resulted from it. The loss sustained besides the house, was not considerable, though ibe tenant lost every thing he had. The liberaity of our citizens have not been in adordng relief to the destitute of tbe family. This should be a warning to the city authorilies-to adopt prompt and efficient measures 10 procure at leasttwo good Fire Engines, so us to be better prepared 10 meet and arrest the occurrence of a similar kind.

We extract the following from letter received from Gov, YELL which bears late subsequent 10 the message of the President of tie United States trans hitting to the two Houses of Congress, the cores pondence "between the Secretary of State and the Minister of the U States at London" and s.bntwcea the British Minister andTsecratary of state,' upon the subject of Oregon.
 "Ye have at last passed the Oregon resolutions, requiring the President to notify Great Britain that the joiat occupancy of Oregon territory by the sub iee,s of the two governments, must terminate at the end oftweve moatls. Tie vote was l72 to 46 on the frstbranch of the prosposton, Oathe ensross. ment of the bill, the vote was l53 to 5l The reso- tIons were i'm aediaely transmitted to the Senate for their concurrence.
 To-day Mir Alien, the chairman of the committee on foreign relations opened the debate in the Senate, in powerful and eloquent speech in favor of the resolutions, which will bring forth all the talent of the opponents to the resolutions. They will pass the Senate, have doubt, without some change should ba produced by negotiations which are still pending. My opinion is, that Great Britain will propose to settle the question al la degrees north latitude. While I an writing a gentleman has called in and informs me, that there is rumor current in the city, that tha British Minister has submitted his ul- tima'ua; proposing to settle the Oregon question at i9o, with the privilege of the free navigation of the Columbia river for ta years and that the proposi- ton has been accepted doubt the truth of the ru- nor, bat t may be so. believe it will thus be finally settled. The yo.e on yssierdayin the House of lo9 majority for giving the notice, has broa 5ht the British Miaister to his senses.''

The President has received information, from a variety of sources, which he cannot disregard, that Great Britain Is now making extensive warike preparations. As her rela- lions with all the powers of Europe seem at present to be of ! peaceful character, the pre- yaiIing and natural inference here IS that these preparations look to q rupture with the Uni led States on the Oregon question. It is of vast importance that this government should, as early as possible, ascertain their true char aeier. You are therefore instructed 10 enl- brace the first opportunity of bringing this subject to the notice of the Earl of Aberdeen, la such a manner as you may deem most ex- pedieut Tbe presi,frrt IS also anxious to lea.n your own opinion upon this subject with the least practicable delay. am, &c.,
