Now, Mr. Speaker, we have, got through
With the cases of Mr. Hunter, Mr. Barton,
and Mr. Etheridge.' These cases'were made
the foundations of several bitter resolutions
—how bitter, their language will readily at
test. Ido not mean to attribute to
the movers of the resolutions; but malipe
there is, somewhere, and it has been poured
down like a meteoric shower upon the head
of this officer. Yes, sir, and this House.has
been made the instrument—the conduit pipe
through which this accumulation of atrabil
arious matter was to be poured forth upon
him. Why, his accusers have even gone
so far as to accuse him of having trampled
under foot the laws and regulations of our
Navy, because he imported into the United
States—What? A variety of animals and
seeds and plants, for which he found accom
modation in his ship, in order to promote ag
riculture in our country. And for this you
find him accused of setting aside the laws of
our Navy. Sir, at that time the law author
izing him to do these things was as broad as
the face of the noon-day sun. I am free to
admit that, had our country been engaged in
n foreign war, I should have found fault witlv
him for shipping animals, sarcophagi, and
such things. But,,at a time when we were
at peace with the/ipiversa! world, shall this
be made an against him? Shall
he be .brought up here,' paraded before the
eyes of the nation, on the floor of Congress,
because he had shipped from Asia, Africa,
and all the foreign coasts which he visited;
rare animals and plants and specimens of
antiquity, and, with an elevated generosity,
presented them to our colleges, our acade
mics and oiir institutions ot various kinds,
reserving not ope„for his own benefit? So
far from this being made matter of accusa
tion against liim, was he not acting for the
public benefit? Was he not subserving the
• interests of his country? Was he not act
ing in conformity with the law of the De
partment which was framed with a view to
enhance our agricultural resources? Sir, I
think that he was doing all this. And if
gentlemen will reflect a little more mature-,
fy, I think, they will discover that they
might not, at allfevents, to denounce him for
his endeavors to promote the literature and
the agriculture of our country. Sir, these
denunciations tire of the same sort as those
which were fulminated against Commodore
, Elliott for having placed a figure-head on
the old frigate “Constitution.” He was de
nounced then by a certain party—he was
> denounced by the wigery of the nation; he
was "said'to be trampling under foot the
rights of the People; that Jie was about to
bow down and worship an idol; that he was
raising up General Jackson to be the Mon
arch not-only of the United States, but, so
far as the figure-head went, the Monarch of
the seas. And now they denounce Him on
another score.
Do gentlemen wish to know why that
figure-head was placed there? No, they do
not. They give more credit to the midnight I
thief and felon who cut it off and carried it
away, an object of scorn and mockery, to the
foul orgies of a party, than they give to the
man by whom it was placed there. St, that
figure-head Was, placed where it was under
the order of the Commis-ioners of the Navy.
Mr. Speaker, I have but little to say, I
repeat, I am in favor of the motion of my
colleague. lam in favor of it as au act of
justice to an officer in our Navy—as an act
of justice to'one who has at least shown
a gallant and patriotic man; a'
man who nag been willing at all times to
hazard bis fortune and bis life in defence of
•m country. lam in favor of it as an act
of justice to a man who has three dimes re
ceived the thanks of Congress of the U. S.
and has once received-a medal in token of
his gallant services; a mgp who now retains
in his possession the sword of an enemy taken
in single fight; a man, sir, whose honors
“have been piled so thick upon him” that
envy has risen against him to crush him
to the earth. I repeat what I said in the
outset of my remarks, that, under present
circumstances, I am not the particular friend
of Cbm.” Ellibtf, nor should I be the friend
of any other man similarly situated. I did
not, therefore, rise so much to defend him,
- worthy of all defence though I believe him
to be, as to'defend the Navy, assailed, and
assailed through him- If, by this process of
picking; out little ’faults or blemishes, yoii
are to impress the nation with the idea that
a gallant officer, who has fought and shed
his blood in yohr service, in not a man proper
{hr the high station which lie occupies, then,
before this. House and this nation,-! wash
my hand's clear of the foul injustice, and I
declare that.l will oppose, it with all 1 the
little talent I possess—would to God it
■were ten, times greater. '
But, Mr. Speaker, I feel an abiding con
viction that he is'worthy of the station which
he occupies; that he is worthy to be intrusted
with the protection of ohr country’s banner,
however distant the sea on whose billows it
may float, or however imminent the danger
which may threaten its hitherto unsullied
glory.

THE NORTH EASTERN BOUNDARY
TROUBLES.
. "Wo subjoin further and more exciting in
telligence from the North Eastern frontier,
from which it will be seen that Maine and
New Brunswick, seem to be vigourously en
gaged in martial preparations to carry on a
little war on their own account, and that
Maine has captured,the Land Warden and
another person asa retaliation for the taking
and detention of Mr. M’lntire, the Land
Agent of Maine, so that matters wear quite
a threatening aspect at present '
. In,regard to this affair, we have merely to
remark that no one who has ever-paid the
least attention to the question, can doubt
that Maine is right in her. claimsfmtlre dis
puted territory—that the highlands mention
ed as the line of demarcation in the treaty of
1f83,.d6V exist and are clearly traceable.—:
It is, likewise, also evident that the delays
/
& quibblings of the British government, by
which a settlement of this vexed question |
has been so long deferred, arise from aknowl- I
edge that the United States arc correct in ]
.their assumptions, and from a belief that by i
procrastination a compromise will be at last i
effected, which may leave to the British that ]
convenient over-land cpmiriunication in win
ter between New-Brunswick and Quebec,
which b so important in a colonial l govern- ;
inent maintained by the force of the bayonet.
But while admittingall this, and making due
allowance for the exasperation of the people
of Maine at the intolerable delay of over fif
ty years in bringing this disputed point to an
adjustment, the question arises as to how far
she is justifiable in her recent movements. —
Which party exercises jurisdiction over, the
lands where the trespassers were found?
We have two stories in this matter—the one,’
that they have always been under the juris
diction of Massachusetts and Maine —the
other, that New Brunswick is the ruling
power, and'has been so from the first. The
Maine papers should enlighten the people
upon this point. •In the next place, it is
clearly wrong for a single state of the con
federation to fly to arms and to do that which,
mav embroil the whole republic in a war.
This matter is the business of the General
Government with Great Britain, and is not
to be settled by blows between the borders
of Maine and New Brunswick. But still,
as we have gpid before, great allowance isio
be made for the irritations under_ivhich.tlte
people of Maine have so long labored, apd
we trust that thev will at least refrain from
any downright collision with their opponents
until the .General Government has time to
act, since they have now the comfort of hav
ing captives to their bow and spear, to be
retained as hostages for the good' treatment
of Mr. M’lntire. Wc arc not disposed to
yield an inch to Great Britain in a matter of
right, come what may,—her conduct in the
i boundary question has been the mere trick
ery 1 of a weak cause, and wo are disposed to
sympathise with Maine in her attempts to
, force a crisis; but let the affair be properly
managed, and let us not be, hurried belter
■ skelter into a fray.
THE NORTH-EASTERN BOUNDARY
WAR. -
An Extra from the office of the Bangor
Whig, dated Sunday evening, gives the
following interesting information.
Maj. Gen. Isaac Hodsdon, of the 3d Di
vision of the Militia of Maine', embracing
Penobscot county, has been ordered by” the
Commander in Chief to detach one thousand
men from the Division under his command,
and proceed at the earliest possible moment
to the place occupied by the forco 'undcjS
command of the Land Agent, to aid him in
carrying into effect the resolve in relation to
the trespassers on the public lands.
Gen. Hodsdon has issued orders for the
troops to be at Bangor, the place of rendez
vous, in readiness to'march on Wednesday
morning, at 8 o’clock. Each man detached
has, by law,, 24‘hours in which to obey the
summons or supply his place with a substi
tute. The Independent Companies of Bangor
were ordered oft entirely., Gen. Hodsdon
has also given notice to the Selectmen of the
several towns in the county, that the officers,
non-commissioned officers and privateshav
ing been ordered into actual service by the
Commander in Cljief, they will cause said
detachments to be attended on their march
with suitable rations, camp utensils and e
quipage for their use, until they shall be noti ■
Red by the, commanding officer of the detach
ment to desist.
An express passed through Bangor on
Sunday, with despatches from Sir John
Harvey, Governor of New Brunswick, to the
Governor of Maine.
Mr. McLaughlin, the Warden of the
' Public Lands of New Brunswick, and Capt.
Tibbets, of the Tobique settlement, were
taken- prisoners, and brought into Bangor on
Sunday. Mr. McLaughlin states thatjie
was going up the-Aropstook- to see what was
going bn, and to have an interview with the
commander of the American force, which he
was informed was about 500 strong, and to
learn what their intentions were. He did
not entertain the slightest apprehension of
being detained a prisoner, as his object was,
if possible, to reconcile past differences, and
bHng about a good understanding. With
these yiews he proceeded up the'river until
he fell in with Captain Hines, and then made
known his business, Captain R., after con
sultation with his officers, informed him that
by way pf reprisal for Mr. M’lntire, he must
immediately leave for Bangor, which he did
on Friday afternoon. Mr. McLaughlin fur
ther states that there was.no armed, force at,
the mouth of the Aroostook, or near there,
when he left, and the only force that had
been ,assembled there was about thirty tres
passers,' who had been driven down the
Aroostook;-and the civil authorities, or'the
people at the Tobique settlement had noth
ing to do with this outbreak.
„ Mr. M.cC rate passed through Boston, this
morning, with despatches tbr Wasliiiigto n.
He reports that. the Legislature of Maine
have voted $BOO,OOO as a special appropria
tion to sustain the cause of the State.
Two thousand men have been ordered out,
which number promptly volunteered, from'
among the best material for troops,.to be
found in the country. The number Will be
raised to ten thousand if necessary.
Large purchases were made in Boston on
Tuesday, of beef, pork, bread, blankets, and
other articles for the Service.
TheSAugusta Age says: “Sir John Harvey
informs the Governof?3that he is -instructed
by his Government to- exercise exclusive
jurisdiction over the Disputed Territory, and
that he shall do it! He requests Gov. Fair-,
field to Withdraw the force sent to.drive off
the,trespassers, arid gays, should the request
not bo complied, with he has a strong-force in
readiness to march tojhe ground and accom
plish tlje object; The astounding determi
nation of the British Government to maintain
Exclusive jurisdiction over the disputed teri
tory, has at. length peeped out.” 1
t ‘H'.tt*. tt i t an w n •
The people of Main* are excited to des- (
pevation on this subject, and seftmto have
relinquished all hopes of a satisfactory and
peaceable settlement of the question for that
the disputed territory belongs absolutely to
the United States, is as capable of positive
proof as that Boston belongs to Massachu
setts.
A correspondent of the Portland Adverti
ser writing from Augusta, 17thinst. sayjK-r
-“I learn that orders will be sent out to-morrow
to caph Major General in the State, to have
one thousand men drafted in each division,
to hold theinsclvesMn readiness to march
when called for to support the forces already
sent.’
The Kennebec Journal, in speaking of this
subject, uses the following language:—“lf
after Mr. Rogers has an interview with Gov.
Harvey, he shall not immediately release the
Land Agent, or if lie shall attempt to repel
the American force by British troops, let
us have the issue at once. Let the sword
be drawn, and let the scabbard be thrown
away, and if the General Government *at
Washington will not sustain Us, let us call
Massachusetts to our aid, and beat up for
volunteers in all the other States. We
have suffered indignities and insults enough,
If our Land Agent cannot be serft to protect
the' property ot the State from thieves, with
out being seized, as a culprit, and put into
the Fredericktonjail, it is time that we show
ed a little of the spirit of ‘76, and not only
rally to defend our own territory, but per
ad venture demolish the prison at Fredericton,
which has foryears been a standing monument
of our disgrace.” 7 '.
The messenger from Sir John Harvey
i brings intelligence that Mr. Mclntirc, the
j Land Agent is at Fredericton, and that he
I will be'detained there by order of the Pro
vincial Government. '
