To the friends Of Temperance and the
public generally we now make our appeal
in behalf of this paper. The publisher
feeling it matter Of importance to the in
terest of the Temperance cause in the Dis
trict, as well as the general interest of the
cause, and having been, as he conceives,
Providentially placed in situation at this
time when he can mingle this interest with
that Of the business men, and thereby rem
der double service to the community, and
still further open medium of communica-
ton by which our principles may be ex-
tended far and wide, at a cheap rate, he
has purchased printing establishment, SO
as not only to be able to put daily paper
regularly to press, but also weekly; and
still further, be able to do any other print
ing the public may be pleased to have done;
and he assures them that they shall have
no cause of complaint. He has made ar
rangements by which he can devote his
time to the interest of the Office and the pa
per; and, having employed Mr.. Charles w.
Fenton, who will be always on the spot, to
conduct the printing, he has no doubt but
that general satisfaction will be given We
shall make arrangements to have the earliest
news also the proceedings of Congress.
.a'a We wish all who are indebted for the pa
per up to this time to pay up, as the affairs
of the tri-weellly must be closed. They
will perceive that we are about to give
them a better paper, double the number, at
the same price.
While the "CoLUMBIAN FOUNTAIN" will
= be devoted to the cause Of Temperance, its
columns will be enriched by original articles
on subjects calculated to interest," instruct
and benefit its readers. 1t is intended so to
blend variety, amusement, and instruction.
as that the various tastes Of its patrons may
be (as far as it is pracicable) gratified
Commerce, Literature, and Science, anc
every other subject of interest not inconsls-
tent with Temperance and morality, will re,
ceiye the earnest attention of the publisher
Nothing Of a sectarian, political, or personal
character will be admitted

i
case: Suppose for moment that Great Britain was
the aggressor, and had given the notice declaring,
at the time that, at the expiration Of the year.
she would assume exclusive sovereignty over the
whole country, and oppose the exercise of any
whatever by the United States: Is there any
American, even amongst those who set the least
value on the Oregon territory, and are mostsncerey
DESTROYS of preserving peace, who would not at
once declare that such preiension on the part of
Great Britain outrageous and must be resisted +
1t is not certainly the interest of Great Britain to
wage war against the United States, and it may be
fairly presumed that the British Government has no
such wish. But England is, as well as the United
States, great, powerful, sensitive, and proud
ton. Every eff1sion of the British press which
displays hostility to the United Staes produces an
analogous sentiment and adds new fuel to excite
ment in America. A moments reflection will ena-
BILE to Judge Of the inevitable effect Of an often
sve and threatening act emanatng from our Govern
ment; an act which throws, in the face Of the world
the gauntlet Of defiance to Great Britain. The quo
tatons from the statement Of her claim, which will
Immediately be made, remove every doubt respect
ing the steps she will take. Under such circum-
stances negotiation is morally impossible during the
year following the notice. To give that notice, with
the avowed determination TO assume exclusive SOW
ereignty at the end Of the year, is decisive, most
probably an rretrievable step. "After that period
I the United States cannot abandon their right Of
sovereignty without sacrifice of national honor
Atemporary postponement of the notice wgive
time for reflection, and permit renewal Of the ne
gotiaons. Butt 10 necessary to examine whether
any and what steps may be taken, without any VIC;

The only positive condition Of the convention is

harbors bays and creeks and the navigation OF All
rivers within the same, be free and open to vessels
