OREGON QUESTION,

moving about the country, or in our neighboring
sities.
chap. it.
" lite " Courier" actually docs sometimes sees what j
the Herald says : ?
But we find in the* Tribune of yesterday, the fol
lowing extracts from that print, being an extract
from a letter written by its Washington Correspon
dent under date of July 3d.
CHAP. III.
ll'luit that Terrible "Print," the "Herald," does
say.
" For gome days past there lias been a rumor pre
valent, at first exceedingly vague and improbable,
but gathering strength from day to day, until it has
assumed, like Hamlet's ghost,
1 Such a questionable shape,'
that we will speak of it. In five words, it is a com
promise of the Oregon question. It is now confident
ly asserted that Mr. Pakcnham for II. B. M. and Mr.
Buchanan for the Administration, have settled upon
the 49th degree of North latitude, as the highest point
of the Northern boundary of the Territory of the L'. i
States West of the Rocky Mountains. I)r. Duncan's
bill which passed theliruse by an overwhelming vote
fixed onr Northern Oregon boundary at 54 deg. 10,
and if Mr. Buchanan has agreed to cede away nearly i
degrees of latitude for the sake of peace, there will |
lie no peace for him. The voice of the Great VVest
for this territory is unanimous that not an inch
should be surrendered ? not the iirst solitary square
inch from the boundaries defined by the bill of Dr.
Duncan. Such a compromise as is rumored to have
been made, cannot be made with the universal voice
of the Mississippi Valley, and a strong correspond
ing sentiment from th# East of the mountains against
it. The Administration would become powerless
from the moment of the assurance that a compro
mise had been conceded upon the Oregon question
It would become as negatively weak as the admin
istration of John Tyler, and fully as odious to the par
ty placing it in power. An open and broad proposi
tion to establish a United States Hank would be re
ceived with immeasurably more forbearance by
the Democracy of die whole country, than any pro
position whatever, excepting, if necessary, the ar
bitration of the cannon's mouth. The fvest is rife
for War, and any temporising or concession by the
Executive Government to ward off this issue, will
be received with unqualified reproach and detesta
tion. The motto of the whole West is 'War ? war
to the knife, before a concession of the first solitary
square inch of our rightful soil to any power upon
the face of the earth.',
"But it is said, that upon the authority of a propo
sition on the part of the United States, heretofore
made, but rejected by Great Britain, to recede to the
4f)th parallel, Mr. Buchanan finds his authority for
that concession now. No authority will answer
him ? no reasoning, or diplomatic casuistry will save
him. He must go the whole figure. The soil may
not be worth having ? it may cost millions to main
tain our title to a strip of land not worth one dollar;
but where the honor and dignity of the country are
involved and regarded, the |**ople will rather abide
the chances of war and direct taxation, than yield
the shadow of a compulsory concession for the sake
of peace. And a treaty Biibmitted to the Senate for
the settlement of the Oregon question, by our rece
ding to the lJMh parallel.duly signed by the high con
trading parties, would be rejected at the first read
i ing. We therefore think the rumor a mere feeler put
l forth by the Cabinet to ascertain the tone of the pub
lic sentiment upon this subject, and nothing more. ?
For while we incline to the opinion that Mr. Buch
anan may be disposed to recede, we are confident
that he lias not the hardihood for the movement,
without first consulting his own safety in making
It. '
(HAP. IV.
The " Courier'' shakes its noddle, and waxes virtuously
indignant.
i If it bp true that the Oregon questien can be Bet
; tied by the extension of our line of boundary from
the Lake of the Woods, west, that is, on the parallel
of lat. 19 deg., we not only get all we claim, but the
administration which refuse such a settlement of the
question, ought to be execrated by every honest man
in the nation.
CHAP. V.
The " Courier " becomet somewhat jmrifitd, and gives
us a prodigious quantity of original of information.
The truth is. from latitude 12 deg. to u4 dew. 40
min., there exists a joint title on the part of England
and the I niied States, which has resolved itself into
a joint occupancy, under existing treaties between
the two countries. In IH27, our commissioners,
with a view of dividing the territory in dispute, pro
ved that our line of boundary from the Like of
the Woods, -l!> deg. north, should be extended to the
Pacific. To this the British Government objected,
because it <*ave us seven degrees of the disputed ter
ritory, and left them but five degrees and forty min
utes. They said, however, we will consent that the
line of 19 deg. north shall be extended we6t until it
strikes the waters of the Columbia, and then through
the centre of that river to its mouth, which is north
of the 16th degree of north latitude. To this we ob
jected : and thus the whole territory inrdispute was,
and is narrowed down to an area less than two hun
dred miles square.
CHAP. VI.
The " Courier" h its its hand at a syllogism, and is
about as successful as usual.
" It' you lovei me as I loves you,
No knife will cut our love* in two.''
Now, if England is willing to accept the propo
sition which she rejected in 1827, would it not be
worse than madness in our government to refuse
such a compromise ?
CHAP. VII.
ThiU aufuJ "print" again actually hits the nail on
the head.
But says the Herald ? "the West >t rife for war."
No doubt of it.
CIIAP. Vltl.
The IVest, like Col Webb, keens out of harm's way.
They would reap the full advantages of the enor
mous expenditures which a war for two hundred
miles of barren waste in Oregon would necessarily
demand, while they would, at the same time, be en
tirely out of harm s way.
CHAP. IX.
1 The Courier thinks the H'ett rather mean"diggins."
They have no ships to be captured? no commerce
to be swept from the ocean- -no towns and cities to
be ba"ered down by an enemy's guns.

To them war would bring wealth, without any of
the miseries always attendant upon it. But because
it might add to the wealth of the West, and because
a few restless and reckless spirits therefore desire
war. shall this nation put itself in the wrong !?
Shall the government of this country be frightened
into a rejection of a just compromise of the Oregon
question, because a reckless foreign press, too long
tolerated among us, threatens it with the anger of the
West !
CHAP. XI.
That horrid "print" again weighs heavy on the soul of |
thr pious Webb! ? Frightful Depravity!
The lleruld, and presses of that stamp, would be- .
nefit by war. because of the excitement for news; |
and we need not say that the cupidity of its editor,
and all kindred soirits, is such, that they would
cheerfully involve tne country in a war fto insure an
increase of the daily sales of their papers.
CHAP. XII.
The Courier charitably hopes that Mr. folk will re - (
tain his senses, in spite of the Herald.
But we trust that Mr. Buchanan and Mr. Polk are
not to be driven from a faithful discharge of their
duties by the threats of any press, and much less by
the threats of one exclusive!) owned and conducted
by men who are not even citizens of the country.

reported to have taken, by a clemor ?? froudle** ??d

On reflection the Courier entirely duagrtn with the
Tribune.
And yet when after Mr. Polk's inauguration we
avowed our determination of judging him by his
measures, and declared that we should approve any
act ofhis adminiHtration which would have met our
approval if Mr. Clay had been elected, this same Tri

CHAP. XVII.
Hie Courier afectumatcly lectures Mr. Polk anil Mr.
Buchanan.
Let Mr. Polk and Mr. Buchanan do their duty
firmly and like men, and they will find the country
rallying to their support. The first great object of
every administration should be to claim no more
than what is just from any government. Let them
make this their rule of action ; and ihen, if war i
should follow, they may always rely with the same |
confidence upon the support of' their political oppo- ]
nents, as upon the countenance of their more inime- i
diate political friends. England has no desire to go
to war with us ; but it must not be concealed that it :
is in the power of our government to force war upon ,
her.

Speinofield, Mass , July 6, 1841.
Unt'/ualled Celebration of the Fourth at Springfield
? Some Remarks on Population ? Military, Sun
day Schools, Horticultural Exhibition, Circus, and
Firework ?.
As Springfield on the Fourth of July was the unor
dinary scene of thousands and thousands of excited
and stirring mortal beings, as the chief portion of
the jocund masses was composed of visitors to the
town, and as everyone remarked the deepest asto
nishment at seeing so small a town so densely
thronged, and so city-like in its whole appearance,
I deem it the first duty of a patriot to his country to
sit down and inform it, through the Herald, of the
incidents which transpired in Springfield on the
memorable anniversary, and of the probable cause
of its unusuallyimmense population on that occasion,
and perhaps tnerc limy be s-ome parts of the narra
tive not uninteresting to any heart.
Waked in the morning at (our o'clock by u cool
sweet breeze, and the tiring of crackers, I got up,
and awhile imagined myself in my native city, so
familiar was the sound explosive, and the roar of
wheels, bringing in at that early period rosy-cheeked
travellers from villages in the vicinity. In two or
three hours after the streets were flooded with pass
ers; green lervro, rotes und tobacco mingled their
perfumes, and all the hotels, and the neighborhood
especially, of the western railroad depot, were noisy
with the hum, tread, and high-keyed remark of buoy
ant multitudes. Eleven trips to Cabot (a lively
town about four miles off) were made by the cars,
which brought from thence, as from Albany, Hart
ford, and the many towns on the road, crowd after
crowd, mass after mass, till Springfield wus actually
more boisterous than ftew York itself! \o such
day ever dawned on Srmngiield before, and the na
tivp inhabitants tunned up their eyes to the skies in
surprise. My gracious ! how the soda flowed! Who
says he did'nt make money 1
The Cabot Guards, u fine body of very
highly disciplined military, numbering about
lifty muskets, and accompanied by a very excellent
brass band, inarched up from Cabot, and paraded
the chief streets of Springfield a little while previous
to taking the cars to Weschester, about twenty-two
miles distant. In this ex|>edition they were joined
by all the children and teachers of the various sun
day schools of Springfield, who, rigged out in pic
turesque festive attire, formed a tremendously ex
tended as well as interesting procession to the depot,
where I should think they tilled, or rather squeezed
fifty enormous cars.
There was a horticultural exhibition here, among
other things, but the greatest of all which served to
absorb pulilic attention and remark, wna the magni
ficent and vast mammoth circus of Rockwell and
Stone, which had advertised for three exhibitions
on this occasion. The morning performance com
menced at about half-past eight o'clock, and such a
tremendous scene as occurred at the opening of the
doors, 1 never before had the opportunity to see.
The paviliion will contain from 2,a00 to 3,000 per
sons, yet it was rammed to its utmost capacity,
which circumstance gave occasion for the announce
ment that there wonla be four subsequent exhibitions
during the day and evening, every one of which was
honored by a still increasing tide of patronage. My
immediate neighborhood to the scene of amuse
ment gave me a fine advantage of observation,
which I improved.
The tickets were sold from an open wagon near
the entrance of the great tent, and so completely was
it surrounded by applicants with inoniea fists and
beety faces, that it seemed like a St. Helena in that
human sea; and its occupants certainly stood their
ground like " le grand Empereur." The sun poured
down his intensest beams and baked them almost to
death ? almost to crusts ? yet they grew not crusty ;
so far from it, that in the full fire of business and the
hurricane of boisterous appeals from sweaty and
squeezed individuals on that trying occasion, one of
them, in a white hat, thrust his hand into his coat
pocket, drew forth a wlnte cambric handkerchief,
and with great gravity wiped the face of an individ
ual in the throng, who was as red as a peony, and
could scarcely see for perspiration. This act, so
cool in the heat and so composed in the commotion,
set the crowd into convulsions, that is to say, all
who were not so already from the insupportable jam
they suffered.
Truly the roar of that sun-tortured crowd beat the
throat of Niagara to a pig's whisper, and it was con
tinued without cessation through the day, many of
them being from Hartford, where the diversion nad
been a long time before announced in advertise
ments, and of course such as these were anxious to
obtain entrance before the cars departed home for
the last time. I fear that hundreds were doomed to I
be disappointed.
The great day wound up with tli?* ascent and fairy
gleam of a splendid collection of fire-works, in the
v icinity of the arsenal, and the good and enterprising
people of Springfield retired at a late hour to their
welcome balmy beds. So did I, too, and I became
1110 re convinced than ever that this in fact a great
country.
CmxmE Mvsiuk. ? The Marlboro' Chapel is un
dergoing repairs, preparatory to the reception of the
rare und unique collection of rhinese article! of virtu ,
composing ,\fr. l'etera'a collection, which are rtrat to be
exhibited in Boston. Sixty-five cases were shipped on
board the Cleopatra one Hay last week, from New York
to Norwich, en route for this city, a part only of tliia rich
collection.? Umlon Trans. July 8.

Business here, which connects the place with the
Went, if in the most nourishing possible position?
the hotels are nightly crammed? and with the aid of
the railroad power it will stand forth the most promi
nent jwint in Western Canada; this is fully appreci
ated by the capitalists of Boston, Lockport, Buffalo,

a main point. Jasper P. Gilkison, E#q , having

Quietude of Norton ? H'hmton's Female Seminary ? I
Proration on the Fourth ? a Ram tile to the Covn- j
try, and Enchanting Pic Nic.
1 arrived in this place on the Fourth, and amen- |
joying the pure country air, delightful scenery, and
the society of accomplished ladies. Norton is situ- !
ated about one mile from the Xew-Bedford and ,
Taunton railroad, in one of the must de.ightful and
secluded spots in New England. The world enters
not here except through the Post Office, andastrange
face hardly ever intrudes upon these tranquil scenes.
Days, undisturbed by news from the'vust turbulence
of murmuring cities, here pass away unconsciously.
It may not be uninteresting for you to know, if
you do not already, tliat in this place is situated
i "Wheaton Female Seminary." To the school room
, and spacious boarding-house has lately been added
I a gymnasium. Teese buildings were erected, and |
! we hope we can .sooti say endowed, by the Hon. i
Laban Wheaton. A stranger cannot help but notice
| the lady-like deportment, and nice sense of nroprie
' ty, that characterize this school. This results from
I an appeal to the pupil to cultivate the moral and re
1 ligious sentiments, and govern herself. Confidence
i is thus reposed in each other. The spirit and tcm
> per appear with all the buds and bloom of a fresh
moral spring, and the seeds of this sweet flower thus
: scattered, will spring up again in some other bosom;
I and multiply itself in the same way forever.
| The Fourth was celebrated m a style that would
' have nut powder and cannon to the blush, if they
had the least particle of modesty in their composi
tion. A vehicle of a tasteful construction, was
drawn by a pair ef enormous ** ox elephants," deco
rated with flowers, ribbons and flags, whisking
their majestic tails to keep the flies at a reasonable
distance. Intpjhis palanquin were stowed torty or
fifty young ladies, dressed in every variety of taste
ful colors, and looking as it all the flower gardens
of the town had been gathered into one focus. Af
ter them came the teachers, reflecting the be.tutiful
principles they teach. Then the standard-bearer,
the doctor, the temple of thp muses, the banner of
crimson, on which was inscribed in letters of gold,
" faith, hope und charity," the " sisters ot love and
sympathy, the "co-operation society," invjted
guests, citizens, Sec., came on in regular succession
' About two miles from the village we left the road
and took our way umo g the overhanging willows,
along a rude path, that brought us to a small bed of
water in the wooas. Flocks and herds " ruminating
lie," and the wind comes a? a blessing to this calm
I recess. There, a little farther on, gushes forth the
j sparkling waters from the hill side, and Hows, in cir
I cling eddies, amongst the( rocks, und fern, and ten
drils of wild plants, on, until their course is lost, like
die restless passions that agitate the breast of man
in the ocean of eternity. And there go a party, gay
as the butterflies, and "as if the eurth were air, whirl
about as long as the summer lasted." Let us place
ourselves in that boat by the shore, and coast the
silent waters, and listen to the merry tale, whilst the
jocund laugh wakes the solitude of the woods -
Blithe notes of music are suddenly let loose on the
charmed ear.
But we can go no farther, for all are now sum
moned to the feast. Under the shade of trees the
table is spread, and on soft Turkish ottomans we sit
down to the pic inc. Really this is a picture for
painters to study.
" Though my stomach was sharp. I could scarce help re
gretting
To spoil such a delicate picture by eating."
But I have not time to describe the whole scene1
and speak of the toasts, the neat and appropriate ad"
dress of a pupil fto her school mates, the singing)
the bustling, the lightsome hearts, the stores o'
"cakes in every lap," the witty repartee, the forms. I
faces, shifting pictures, "clad 111 bright colors ana J
glowing smiles."
" I seem to hear the call
Ye to each other make; I sec
't he heavens laugh with you in jubilee;
My heart is at your festival.'"
But it is time to return. What ho! there, thou
"dark eyed one harness the elephants ; pile in
the girls? a few more ; now swell out the notes, a
louder and yet a louder strain. The woods resound
with the shout, and echo buck the glad strain.?
Some wend their homeward way, gathering wild
llowers as thry go, and talk "with open heart and
tongue." Twilight slowly approaches, lulling na
ture to repose, and light and sound arc leaving the
earth.
?' If the cold worldling could live again in the
memory of scenes like these, he would know what
it is to N)mpathise with the unseen power that
rules in nature, and mingle earnest wishes for
many returns of such happy days.

Account of a Cliivalric and Intrepid Action between
the People of Newport and two Score of enormous
IVhalet in Newport Harbor .
Your valuable paper being most read by the fash
ionables of these United States, you should have
the latest and most interesting news stirring at the
summer resorts of the upper ten thousand. Now in
this cool and delightful town you have no corres
pondent, at which I have often wondered, and the
ladies also have often expressed their surprise alter
having sent to your agents for the HeraJd, and not
finding one word from Newj?ort.
This morning at about seven o'clock, there was
a shoal of whales discovered in our inner harbor
the news spread, and everybody Hocked to the wharf
to see the sport.
Everything tliHt could float was pressed into the
service, and soon our harbor presented one of the
most animated, exciting scenes I ever beheld. The
boats put after them, sail boats and whale boats,
all manned and equipped; and after about three hours
snort, succeeded in capturing and bringing to the
snore thirty-three fish, that will yield from one to
three barrels per fish.
Capt. Sin i lie, of the brig America, and his bro
ther, with their boats, captured seventeen fish. Capt.
Lawton, of the U. S.A., manned Captain Woolscy's
yacht Reveille, and with the assistance of Captain
Hailey, of the brig Confidence, and Mr. W. Swin
bune, who acted as boat steerer, captured three very
large ones, that will yield four barrels a piece. The
wharves were lineu with people, and all enjoyed
the exciting scene, and the town of Xew[Hirt now
presents one of the most lively and animated scenes
it ever did before. Those who were so fortunate
as to strike a whale, (and among them ('apt. Lawton
stands preeminent) will revel in the bright smiles of
the lovely belles of Newport, for beauty always loves
bravery.

I o'clock, b; ,>n alarm of robber* being concealed in, the
house. Itii geared that Mr. Masterson of Tennessee,
who has an <-d in these parts with a targe f um of money
to purchase siavea. was about to get into bed. when,
having moved the bed a little from the wall, he di*
coveiwd a man concealed beneath it. lie immediately

troduced to Mr. Masterson at Richmond, whe ice they
had travelled in company, and both had put up at Cole

Excitement and Sport at Newport. ? Noevent
since the visit of L'Hercule, has produced ao
much excitement ns has existed here this morning. ?
At an early hour it I came known that a shoal of black
fish whs in the offing, <nder rapid way for the harbor,
and in less than an ho. they made their appearance in
side of Fort Wolcott. They received their first welcome
from the boats of an outward-bound whaler, which were
soon joined by a fleet of boats from the wharves. The
chase, the striking, and the towing in of the fish, wen;
animated in the extreme. Before 11 o'clock 33 flsh were
dead and landed. They measured from 9 to 3*2 feet in
length, and will each yield from '2 to 0 barrels of oil.?
Hundreds of spectators enioved the sport while standing
on the wharves, and viewed'the whaling corps engaged
in this mimic chase of the monster of the deep. A " huu
dred barrel" fish could not have called forth more energy
and skill than were displayed by the "old salts'' in the
whaleboats. Two of the first were taken by a small boat
not 12 feet long, and the way in which she walked the
water was a caution to country boy*. Gravelly Point
showed as many corpses at low tide as hanged there by
the iiock, when 33 pirates made a taut line under the
gallowl in the reign of Queen Anne.? Nneiiort fatter,
