Indian tribes who lived upon those territories about
to extend laws to Oregon there were Indians there and

Now would there be enough in the old peace establishment

would say that when they to the items of the bill for pay
and subsistence they could fix the amount according as they

Mr. BOTTS desired to ask question Of the gentleman
What difference did the gentleman propose by his bill to make
between the peace establishment and the peace establish
ment at the time the war with Mexico began
Mr. vINT0N had stated the other day, very specifically
once twice. He did not know whether the chairman OF
the Committee Military Affairs had listened or not
Mr. BOTTs said IL he had, he could not have heard the
gentleman from his seat
Mr. vINTON would now repeat that this bill was based on
the supposon that the army would be reduced back to what
il the Of the war with Mexico, with
the addition Of company Of engineers OF 100 men, who had
been raised since the Of the Mexican with
the sdden also regiment Of mounted remen, which

the House, Sl3s5s,0 900; with Ga company sli
325, 600 and with 40 men, sl0,595, 900.
Mr. BOTTS here read again the amendment he proposed
offering He said that the object Of the existing law in en-
poweng the President raise the numbers company to
100 men, if in his judgment the exigenc Of the service

in other places Mr.. b. confessed that his own personal
