degrees Of north latitude. which had been made
BY two preceding administrations. hnr Without
proposing to surrender to Great Britain, as
they had done, the free navigation Of the Co.
lunbia river. The right Of any foreign power
to the free navigation Of any Of nnr rivers,
through the heart of onr country. was one
which was unwilling to concedr. II also rm
biaced provision tu make free to Great Brit
