psuoIe with the exclusive clam advanced .y

patiblc with the exclusive CLAIM advanced Nv
the United States.
Tbs declaration, arising from a conviction
equally sincere, will, the undersigned is per
suaded, be viewed with the same considara-
ton by the government of the United Stutes.
-es they expect that their own declaration
should receive at the hands of the govern
ment Of Great Britain.
This PremIsed the object of the undersirn-
Gu IN addressing to Mr.. Buchanan the presen,
communication is to ascertain from him
whether. supposing the British govern,nen nj
10 entertain no objection 10 such course, il
would suit the views Of the United States
government to refer to arbitration, not, as
has already been proposed, the question OF an
equitable partition Of the territory, but the
question Of title in either Of the two powers
TO the whole terri.ory, subject, of course, TO
the condition that if neither should be found
in the opinion Of the arbitrator, TO possess
complete title to the whole territory, there
should, IN that case, be assigned to each that
portion Of territory which would in the opin
ion OF the arb,rating power be called for bv
just appreciation Of the respective claims of
each.
The undersigned has suggested reference
on the above principle 10 some friendly SOW
ercign or state.
The undersigned believes to be the cours
usually followed in such cases; it is that
which has already been resorted to by the
two governments, land more than once But
thero may be other forms Of arbitration, Pei
haps more agreeable TO the Government of
the United States.
There might be, for instance, mixed com.
mission, with an umpire appointed by COM
mon consent or there might be a board
composed Of the mos, distinguished civilians
and jursts Of the time, appointed in such
manner Us should bring all pending ques-
tions to the decision Of the mos, enlightened,
impartial, and independent minds.
10 the present position OF effairs, and feel
ing how the interest ot both countries require
an early as well as an amic able and salts
factory adjustment Of existing difficulties
the undersi gned earnestly invites the Sccre-
tary OF State to take the subject of this note
into consideration, with view to such an
arrangement on the principle OF arbitration as
may seem to the government Of the United
States TO be most just, wise and expedien,.
The Undersigned takes advantage oi this
opportunity 10 renew TO the Hon. James Bu- |

Died, on Saturday night, the 18th inst, at
his residence in this District, after few days
Of very painful illness, THOMAS JEFFERSON
HIBBLER, Esquire, in the lor,y-seventh year
Of his age. Thus terminated the career OF one
of our most worthy and useful citizens, his
usefulness has been tested in public capacity
in various ways, having served Tor many years
as alnsniber of the State Legislature, for many
years an officer Of the Church to which he be-
longed, aud rs 4 commander of Il Company OF
Volunteers. of his immediate fellow ctizels, III
the late Florida war. And in the discharge ot
those high and responsible offices, he had so
much secured The confidence Of his fellow cti-
zens. that through their strong solicitations he
was one of the prominent candidates before
the people, Tor Il seat in the State Senate at
the time Of his death.
The writer of this was very intimate with
the deceased, andif he had any fault, in his
private relations of life il was that Of too much
kindness or feeling for his fellow man. He
has left an atfectionate wife and family OF
children, together with many relatives and
friends to mourn his loss, in fact, the worth OF
this useful man, could only be appreciated
most, by those who knew him best. ..
Died, on Monday the 18th inst, at her Ia
theirs residence in SpartanDurg District, Mrs.
LOUISA. L. LINDSEY, consort Of MIR. Dennis
Lindsey of Hamburg, s. c., and only dangh.
ter of MIR. G. B. and Mrs. Rebecca Styles, in
the 25th year Of her age. She was, for the last
five years, a devout aud orderly member of the
Baptist Church, which faith she retained to
the last. She has left 4 husband and one child,
with numerous friends and relatives, to mourn
their irreparabc loss, but they mourn not as
those without hope.
