| Mr. WE,Lrr, in submitting the amendment
unfortunately we think urged ia passage o.
the ground that the existing relations betwccI
the United States and England required tb'
erection Of Fort at Pcmbina. We do no,
think For, there would be Of much account
in war with Britain, or that M invasion o.
our Territory by the British, Is at NIL probable
from that quarter We want Fort at Penn
bna 10 defend that thriving settlement from
the incursions Of the Missouri Indians. Win
make annual attacks upon the whites there
numbering their wives and children. and steal
ing their cattle.
Mr. SrrArr Of Michigan, warm friend o
Minnesota, supported the measure with zeal.--
