American claim 10 the whole Of Oregon, and

A communication was received from the
President Of the United States. laying before
Congress the correspondence orIhe Ashbur-

had been spoken Of IN various quarters, du-

one of the nesoiiaiOrs of that treaty, he would
improve The earliest opportunity To defend il.
With this view he had called for The CORES

further from his mind Than To attempt any
snch thing; Tut he felt provoked to it by the
remarks Of others. OF what had been said
OF the treaty during Its discussion. he had
nothing to complain. The President and
himself had heen engaged in a negoliarion,
which was proper subject of comment while
under consideration. but he thought that the
opposiion 10 that treaty now. was so extra
Ordinary as to make it a subject Of defence.
