Coszr.RPONDCxcs or the Cumberland
Civilian.
Washington-, April 4, 1816.
Mr. MeDuffie, occupied the Senate to
day, with a speech on Oregon, worthy of
hi? palmiest dry. He was lacking in ;
nothing -at physical power the intellec- j
lual lamp burnc-J zs brightly as in those
dr.rs. when he was the eloquent and able j
defender ol the
great principles,
uPon i
which the Whig
pir:y
is erected, anu
a
white he proclaimed the found and con
servative doctrines, which he holds on
this momentous question. 1 for a moment
thought, he had returned to the faith from
which he had so long strayed.
He toid, one leading can 52 for the ?s
rumed popularity of the ultra claim in
Oregon, was that the friends of compro
mise, na the Dcir.ccra.ic Mt'e of ll c
Chamber, had refused to discuss the title j
fully and frankly. The people, there-
fori", had but one view of the picture and
that, a moU exaggerated and highly col
ored one. Under these circumstances he
prr.Tviscd lo review, the points upon
which the conflicting claims rested, lie
quoted from Vattcl, to prove what I be
lieve is admitted, by all the acknowledg
ed authorities on public law, that mere
discovery, without occupation confers no
territorial rights. A nation has no right
to appropriate to herself any privilege,
and unless it is followed up by settle
ment, th territory is open to all the
world. Mr. Grecnhow, who had been
introduced into the debate as authority,
admitted that the only discoveries that
were sustained by contemporaneous his
tory ar.J official exposition were those of
Perez and Heeeta in 1774 and 1775, and
the first actual occupation took place in
1789. It was never designed by Spain
10 settle; her navigators were sent out to
examine the countries which three cen
turies heftre, had bocn apportioned out
ly Ferdinand. Great Britain undcrCapts.
Cook & Mcares, had also e flee led discov
eries a few year.- after, not then knowing
what had been accomplished, by the Spa
rit!i jiavigaters, who took pains fc ctm
'eA the results from the world. On tins
cicinmt of title then, they stood alike.
In a -controversy, which occurred at that
priod, the English Ministry and Press,
resisted the thi farcical pretensions set
up by Spain, and openly claimed by vir
tue of the voyages, of Cook and Mcares.
But, Great Britain had gone on and per
fected a right: She established settle,-
mints upia iraziers t:ver, about tne
43:h parallel and has remained there ever
KK"e. She acquired no right by the
N.ootka sound convention, and the intro
duction of it would mar other and stron
ger claims. The war of 03 had vitiated
, that Treat' and the subsequent abandon
ment of No nka, prorcd, that Spain ac
knowledged au ownership in Great Bri
. tain. He was at a loss to discover upon
' what basis, we derided any rights from
Spain, who had thus relinquised her own
pretentions.
We had lo rest npon stronger and
more substantial ground, the discovejv
cf Gray, the explorations of Lewis and
Clarke and the settlements at Astoria,
these earned us to trie 4ih degree and
pave whatever advantages the Country
possessed. He said, a war would cost
more than one huudred million per an
num, and if one life was not lost or one
vessel captured, still it would be a war of
desolation, in consequence of the inter
ruptions and injury to Commerce. He
thought a treaty upon the 49th degree,
allowing- water privileges and other mi
jor considerations to Great Britain, would
be just and proper, and he therefore did
not hesitate to say, before the world he
would vote for it, if sent in to-morrow.-
He drew a striking picture, from Green
how's book of the Territory of Oregon,
which I .will take the pains to quote, from
tbe-edition upon my table, for the infor
mauca of my readers, that may see, up
m the authority of the great Captain of

JIamiegans, Now hear what Mr Green
how says, about the disputed portion of
the territory, for which the people of the
United States would be hurried into a
collision with Great Britain by an un
scrupulous faction "the territory North

clad Mountains, tortuons Rivers and
Jiikes frozea orer, more than two-thirds
of the year, presenting scarcely a single

country farther South, however abound
ia fish, which, with berries, form the
principal support of the native popula

No reliable indication has been (riven,!
as to the form, which the "Notice'

eventually take. Our Whig friends have
not yet determined upon a course, though
a majority of them, evidently incline to
Mr. Crittenden's proposition. Mr. Rcv

to that, which meets with still greater fa

to account. Yet there are several votes
among the moderate Locofocos, whom
neither of these plans will suit conse

which is always prepared to put on the

'few days," yet, there is no appearance of
one and little probability. Owing to the
absense of two free traders, theCommittee
has been tied, by a New Yoak Locofoco,
who demands increased duties on Wool

Lord Ashbarlon was even more violently
denounced by Ihe opposition, in England
for nuking this same Treaty and for al

Jonathan. That simple circumstance tells

An important reduction in the duty on

been made in the French tariff, which ex

activity to the importation of that arti

happened in France, on the line between
St. Eticnne and Lyons. A concussion
took place between two locomotives,
which met by a mistake in the departure.
There were twelve wagons attached lo
one locomotive. Six were smashed to
pieces in an instant, as well as both ' the
locomotives. Eight persons were killed
on the spot, among whom were two wo-
men and a child. Ten were wounded
fataliv and twenty badly. This catastro-
phe caused great excitement throughout
the country, equalling almost the famous
Versailles disaster.
Marshal Bugeaud is said, at least to

The fortifications of Paris are now
completely finished. The fosses and ram

Six years have been spent in this gigantic
work.
A letter from Adrianople states that a
part of the town of Phillipopolis was
burned down on the 12th ult. The de
tails are not given, but 2,500 houses are
said to be destroyed.
We read in an Algiers letter of the 25th:
"Yesterday General dc Bar reviewed the
National Guard, to-the-number of from
1500 to 1800. Ol this number 1200
have been formed into a moveable col

readiness to march when called upon.
They were afterwards reviewed by
Marshal Bugeaud. It is not expected
that this force will ever have lo go farther

The Moniteur Grec publishes a very
long speech made by M. Coletti, ihe

Wc have already stated that the ac
count in German papers, relative to the
revolutionary movements in Prussian Po-
Jand, Cracow, tc, were so contradict-
ry that it was impossible for us to arrive
at aiiy conclusion as to the truth. The
news from Poland is calculated to pro
duce none but painful emotions, and we
can only view with grief a movement,
the issue ot which is but too certain. " v
The Augsburg . Gazette states, from
Vienna, the 25th' ult," that General de
Collin had been ; compelled to evacuate
the town of Cracow, as the number of
troops under Jus command was too small
to resist the rebels, and as he was afraid
that they would gain the passage ol the
Vistula, near Poegorize, and thus extend
the revolution to the interior. He was
unable to reach and secure this point with
out an attack from the rebels. , A Frank
fort journal states, from Vienna, that sev
eral officers, have been arrested in Gilli
cia, on suspicion of their being concerned
with the revolutionary movement.
'A letter from Dresden of February 21,
says:
"In consequence of the revolutionary
movements in Poland, all the Russian
Poles resident abroad, have received or
ders from their government to return, un
under pain of confiscation of their pro
perty. Many who were risiding in Sax
ony have already left. M. de Shroeder,
Charge de Affairs of Russia, who had
gone to Weimar, has been recalled, as his
presence here, in the present state of af
fairs, is considered necessary.
Array of Occupation.
It is stated in the Washington Union
thot Gen. Taylor, in an interview with
several influential citizens of Matamoras
who were at Corpus Christi with a large
n imberof mules for sale, took occasion
to impress on them the pacific intentions
of the Uuilcd States government in oc
cupying the Rio Bravo; that the army
would not in any case cross that river;
unless hostilities should be commenced
by die Mexicans; that ihe Mexicans on
the east side of the river would not bo
disturbed iu any way by the troops; that
they will be protected in all, their rights
and usages; and that every thing - which
the army may require will be purchased
at fair prices.
The New Orleans Bulletin, speaking
of the important movement of Gen. Tay
lor's forces lo the Rio G rande. thus spec
ulates: . The troops under his command, in "a
delicate service," will take up a position
on the Rio Grande, near to Matamoras,
almost within sight of the Mexican for
ces, cutting off their communication with
Santiago, the port where goods destined
for Matamoras are. landed. Matamoras
is fortified though not strongly, and ihe
garrison at present is loo weak to act a
gainst Gen. Taylor. But it may easily
be strengthened by the gradual accession
of troops from . Tampico, and from the
interior, so that in a very short period of
time the numerical force of the Mexicans
will be so augmented as to embolden
them to attack, should their government
feci disposed to give the signal.
The situation of General Taylor may
thus become very critical, and it would
appear that he must necessarily be pla
ced in a false pasition should no aggres
sive action on ihe part of the Mexicans
take place, Which would authorize him to
act himself with vigor against them. Re
ceiving no reinforcements himself, whilst
the force of his opponents is daily and
hourly increasing, leaving to them the
choice of the moment of attack, whilst he
is at the same time debarred from acting

ly on, whilst the preparations of his op
ponents are completing and attaining all
the perfection of which they arc suscepti
ble would it be prudent, would it be
proper for him to remain in a situation so
exposed? . Yet he cannot retreat. The
moral effect of a retrograde movement
would be worse than a partial defeat in
the commencement of the conflict, pro
vided such partial defeat were occasioned
exclusively by an inequality of forces;
and we feel persuaded that no other cause
could produce such a result. No doubt,
however, all the contingencies and pos
sible perils to which our troops may be
exposed in consequence of the movement
were fully considered by our government
before the order was given, and we have
no apprehensions of the result. So far
at least, the conduct of the controversy
with Mexico and the occupation of Tex-
as,justify confidence in the foresight of
the Administration and in the skill and
prudence of the commander oi the troops
in that quarter. However hazardous,
therefore, the present expedition may
seem, unless it were intended for active
operations, wc think no doubt need be
entertained that provision has been made
for , whatever exigencies may arise.

The New Sub-Treasury Bill.- The
Sub-Treasury Bill provides for the pay
ment ol "postage, and Custom House
duties in specie. , Very well let the bill
be passed, and the tariff of 1812 be re
pealed, and then see where specie will
be in eighteen months. When men talk
of great measures and party discipline, let
them look ahead for a few months. In
a nation as large as the United States, it
takes more than a year to demonstrate the
operation of bad laws. But then the de
monstration is as plain as the first nrob-
lem of Euclid. It is felt in all the bran-
ches of business: and in 'the cases which
