Mr. sEapLr said he was astonshod to hear it, He
distinctly understood the Senator giving his assent

young mans statements: but there amount OF
valuable and important matter. And he would insist,
now that the whole of the leor in the report should be
read in its proper connection 1t is able and we'll
w,itten production, and very credabe the profound
views which the writer takes Of his subject And
the fancy he oect that it is the production of
young man whose Imagination has been excited by the
bold and peculiar features of Oregon where he has been
for several years and whence he has lately returned
And as 10 the ancul part the Senator from New Jersey
Is perhaps the last man who should say any thing
At Had anticipated this attack, should have brought
up some OF the Senator's speeches, which would have
perhaps proved that he language times with all
ms acute reasoning just as fancul as this which he has
psen reading for the amusement Of the Senate and per-
naps IN the very same words (Laughter) ! recollect,
however a speech of the honorable Senator Of some
TWO years ago on this very question of Oregon. He
was speaking Of the crack Of the American rifle and
said -
Ihs crack Of the american rifle couid from the a.
sdntes across the Mssfssppi through the 1orges of the
Rocky Mountains TO the Pacific Ocean and re6ounding
acould return back the Eastern seaboard cross the a
s'hc and stop only on the chores Of Europe" Rene,ced

branch be read
