CLAMOR I'OR GREAT BRITAIN
What is th> mesning of the chu&e sonnded ont
by so many whig presses ::liufl this administra
ton, that it sceks « war sith Eugland on ths Ore
gon question ? What foxndation is there for such
w charge? Just this and no more. The Presi
dent declared, nine mouths ago, ** our right to Or
cgon is clear and nunquestionable ' We putit
to every man of candor, has the administration—
or, if they please, the Union"—done or said
anyhing mere? Not one deed—not one word
Oun the question of wienr—nakedly stuted-—the
sdministration has taken us position. "T'hat is all,
And now we ask, is that position new or old ?

violemt step, or a rechless st p, or a step ol exus.
peration ! Itis none of these. This nation as a
Mution=—this government as a governwent=—=has
never known any other doctrine ol our right in
Oregon than thai very doctrine which the Presi.
«dent promnlgated in his inangural. and which we
have endeavored. and shall endeavor, unflinch
Ay to sustain. We quoted this doetrine yester.
day, ns stated in the strongest and broadest tenns
by Henry Cluy, in 1826, when he, as secretary
ol state, spoke on this subject, for the adininis
tration of Mr. Adams. This is Mr. Clay's lan
gunge: * Nor is it conceived that Great Brituin
has, make out even a colorable title to auy portion of
the morthwest coust.” "This most emphatic asser
tion of our rights by Mr. Clay is l‘ne more re
markable becunse it was given in the same des
patch in which Mr. Calhoun was mstructed to
cl‘l-ulxpuomise our claa by the line of the 40th par.
allel.
We are prepared to show that this same doe
trine has been reiterated over and over again in
every variety of foru, by administration after ad
winistration==in messages, in despatehes, inma-
Jority reports on the {loor of congress. But we
will not take the trouble to do this. The work
1s needless.
We take a shorter course. We dely aur op.
ponents on this question, one and all, to produce
any state paper clavming to spek the seatiments of
the American government a any time, in which the
doctrine of our RIGHT TO THE WROLE OF Ontcoy
has been contradicted or wbundoned. Let thew
show us one administration in this conntry that
has ever said, or intimated, or allowed, in any
terms, or on any occasion, thut the United Stutes
did wot of right own the see! of Oregon up 10 54
leg. 40 min.
Over und over again, indeed, onr government
has offered to codpromise this our righttul elaim
=lO compromise it ut the line of the 49th parallel,
Fuling 10 do this, our government has twice
postponed the decision of the question by a stip
alition of “ joint occupancy,” carefully resery.

vompaired. Bat what administration has ever
nurrowed the ground of cur alleged right one inch 7
What one state paper has done this in the nume
of the governmeut? We defy the anti Oregon
press o produce one such document, or any
trace of one.
Till they do this, what right have they to necnse
this adininistration of new and reckless violence ?
\What is their own ground in this matter ! Waould
they have the joint occupation continue as it
stands—Great Britain weanwhile extendimy her
daws alloverthe region, and dotting it everywhere
with her fortufied posts, and strippiug its best tim
ber land, and choosing all its most eligible sites,
and monopolizing by the agency of her Hudson
Bay Company all the best resources and occupa

or honorable, or profitable, or safe a stute of

American fellow eitizens in Oregon wholy nnre
coguized and unprotected there any longer—

British popualation fostered by England to the ut

this administration ever shown to enter upon ne
gotintion, previded only that in such negatiation
wur clear rights are not to perish, and our pliin
duty of protection to our citizens and oar soil is
not to be abandoned ' Aud are not these provis
dons wise and just?
We think cougress and the country will say they

upon the Oregon Tw-licm honestly, and with
manly frankness, and standing on the ancient and

letter of u late date says :
“As 1o Oregon, we shall have no trouble, in
my opinion, uud the canrse that your paper hus
pursued meets the hearty approbation of every
sound-hiearted Democrat with whom [ have con.

<conjectures, that Mr. Polk will take strong ground

do, but Le will not be so nuwise and pereuiplor
as to close the duors on all negotiation. lle wifi

Muin street, and in the rear thereof, were con.
sumed. A large majority of the buildings were
of wood, in continuous blocks, built us well in
the most insecnre manner. We should think un
avernge estimate of 1000 cach for the buildings,
high. The loss Ly their destruction will not
exceed §lOO.OOO. Nothing is known of the
qnautity of merchandise consummed, though it is
up‘:rchcudcd that the value 1s great,

Premature Interinents.— Buricd Aliee.~'l'he Ap

the lid of the cottin was removed, when. to utier
astonishment of all present, the corpse was found
with its face downwards, and in the manner in

body. Added 10 this, as fur as the hands could

tuty of hair was strewed at the feet, Al these
circimstances, together with the sndden and «in

scarcely a shadow of doubt that here was another
instance of a too precipitate haste in consigning

A Great Foot Race took plice on Wednesday

Curious.—Awmong tiie pageants ut the corona

his service of silver plate, presented by the law
and order party, did he consider it the ceward of
advoeating, by compulsion, principles and meas
nres repugnant to his own honest corivictions, as
he,would il e had received itas u toko n of appro
bation for spontancons efforts in originating, and
skill in earrying out, in opposition to the wishes
of many Whigs, the defence of their catise against
popularrights. Norwonld the Journal arge mer
cernary motives as an apology for now sappori
ing the “law and order™ party, com posed of
whigs, apostate democrats, and political nonde
seripts, in apposition to the Whig party proper,
who wish to free themselves (rom such n unnat
ural union.
Why then should that paper, as it did Jast Sat.
urday. attribute unworthy motives to it s cotem:
poraries, who sustain democratic men a nd meas
ures? Why should it abuse the Washington
I'nion for its zeal in asserting our righte ons claim
to the Oregon, und uver that its tone is ** permit
ted" by the President, “for the purpose of secur
ing the votes of the, Western members for the
public printing”? Yet the Journal, with as
much severity as injustice, denounces the Uriion
and the Executive for the course of the form er,
on the gronnd that they are actuated, not by pr n
ciple, but by venal inotives, Ly ““the pultry obje ¢t
of putting some forty or fifty thonsand dollars in
to the pockets of Iwo men'— Mr. Ritchie aad
his pariner.”
The “law and order” organ expected that M r.
Polk’s administration ** would rival the worst (f
its predecessors in corruption, but did think th st
Tyler would stand unequalled in meanness.”- -
What un ungenerous thrust is this, at the mani o
whom the * law and order” party are indebted fc o
its salvation in 1342, Ilad it not been tor th e
protecting arm of John Tyler, that party wonl d
have been annibilated by the incensed people i nt
that exeiting period,
~ The Journa! then proceeds gravely to denoun e
‘“a hireling press, [who Las a better right to 1]
whose life-blood is the gold of the treasury,” and
then brings forward the stale fulsehood that “the
President himsell has a direct pecuniory intere st
in the Union,” which it affects to di<heliave, t ot
which falsehood is introduced there that it may e
circuluted and believed by its readers ; and g.v
ing one kick at President Juckson, concludes by
charging President Polk with a desire to serve a
second term, and 1o hg “ willing to invalve e
country in the horrors of war for the gratification
of his own personal ambition " How awful !
The Union, according to the Journal, is “‘permit
ted” by Mr. Polk to erack up Oregon, for the
ole oliject of pmtting woney in two print ers pocis
ets, and also for another. that of securingg hisown
election to the preridency for a second term!
But we will not pursue this subject farther s
for no Democrat nor enlightened and candid
Whig will attribute such mean and dis vonorable
motives to President Polk, or to the ed. tor of the
Union ; and if publishers of any puper s, for the
purpose of making party capital, co ntinne to
make such charges, we admonish the m 10 be
ware, lest the wotives which direct their own
course be investigated and exposed, Judge not,
lest v be judged. I
“We conld not help thinking, that so me of the
soverinnity would be inclined to think tk ¢ learned
Judge more than half an Algerine."—Jvurnal.
We can't help the Journal's thoughts It hae
been in the habit of thinking differently from all
other persons, ever since the Chepachet war.—
The exploits of heroism of the Algerines in that
wur had only once been eqaalled, and that was
by the English when her army “swore terribly in
Flanders.” We kuow not what kind of ears the
Journal man must have had to make him think as
he did, when Judge Woodbury expressly charg
ed the grand inguest *““that the people were tha
source of all power, and that governments were
instituted by them, and their powers were grants
from the people.” This was the Judge's doe.
trine and what he inculeated upon the grand ju
rors, and i’ the Journul can see any Algerineisn
init, it must have a strange medium of ‘vision.
{77 The Journal has discovered, from an ar
ticle in our paper, und from resolutions adopted
at a ward meeting, that their “ opponents have
elected to carry on the Spring contest in the old
way, and npon the old issues.” Very well what
else could they expeet? We have not such ac -
commodating tempers as those, who can be vio
lent Whigs, one day, and the nextday, « law andl
order” wmen, denouncing Whig meetings. We:
expect to put the elcetion on the old iss nes—the
democeratic doctrines which are the sane which
resulted in the election of James K. Poll, ant
some of which we briefly stated in the article,
from which the Journal has copied a paragraph,
on which to make comments ““as though we
would deny™ our words.
When the Journal, a: the law and order Or-.
gan, speak of “ our opponents,” it evidently des
ignates the democratie party, but it should not
“lay the flattering unction to their” belief that
we are the only party, with whom they are to
contend. The Whigs proper are already in the
field, the law and order ranks are thinning fast,
and a signal discomfiture awaits them in the ap
proaching contest. i

Tie fullowing were the resolutions presented

A. C. GREENE, Chairman,
George Turser, Secrctary,
These resolutions drew forth a feeling and el
oqugnt responsc—a brief but elegtnt enlogy,
from Judge Prrmay, who had been Judge Story's
associate in that Court for more thun tweunty
years, and for a much longer period, had enjoy
ed a friendly intimaey with the deceased. He
was followed by Judge Woousuny who spoke in
a fervent, solemn and enlogistic strain of the
bright luminary who bad departed, honored as a
Inwyer awd a citizen, leaving a charact:r to be
imitated by his survivors.
The proceedings of the Bar were then ordered
to be recorded.
The Grand Jury were then empaunnelled, and
Judge Woodbury, delivered to that body an im
pressive and learned charge ably defining its du
ties and enforeing their performance.
After the petit jurors were sworn, and the
docket called over, and several motions disposed
of, the Conrt adjourned to Tuesday.
Rev. Dr Jupson.—This indefatigable missioa.
ary to the heathen nations of India, has retnrned
to this country, afier more than thirty years ab.
sence. On Sunday evening last, the First Bap
tist Church was unusually crowded with people
of all ages and conditions, to see this missionary
and to receive some account of his labors und his
personal privations and trials in those benighted
regions of the cast. From weakness of the lungs
induced by his hard service in the cause of reli
gion, he was unable to speak sufficiemly loud to
be heard by the congregation, and he therefore
made his interesting statement by communicating
it to Professor Caswell; who stood in the pulpit
with bim, and by the Professor it was wmade
known 10 the auditory. Mr. Judson was a grad
vate of the University in this city in 1809, and
while a student there, decided on that missionary
career to the oriental world, in which Le has been
80 eminently distinguished,
Avcriox.—lf the citizens of Providence wish
1o see one of the most odd, queer and eccentric
geniuses, we advise them o step in at No. 8
South Main st. where they will find him every
evening through the week, selling books and
other goods, so cheap that it is an object for them
to call, who wish 10 buy. He always has a few
more lefl, of the same sort. He is what we call
a selt-propeller in the way of seliing goods at
Auction. We have received u valuable evidence
of his eccentricity, and can safely say there is
nothing like it. Go and sce him.

We were unable to accept of the polite invitalion
extended us 1o be present at the elegant [éte giv

evening last. We see, however, by the uecounts
of the gay affair, as given by our cotemporaries,
who had the good fortune to be present, that the
liberal arrangements of the corps were fully car.
ried out, and the entertainment afforded the high
est gratification to the numerous guests. The
Hall was very appropriately and tastefully deco
