PITTSBURGH, FRIDAY, AUGUST 1, 1345
Onvo.os T sant-root' .—The validity of the cla*.m
or the United States to the Or..gon Territory, has been
very freely disrus.ed hy the pi-F.8,4 of tile country.—
The history of the discovery and permanent occupa
tion, as well es the spirit of solemn treaties clearly
prove that Great. 13, stain has no more legal tight to
this territory, than she hai - to one of the States of cur
confederation.
By the treaty between the United States and Spaio
Concluded in 1819, the latter relinquished all claims
to the country north of the forty-second degree. The
,southermow point to which the claims of Russia ex
tends, was fixed by her treaty with Great Britain in
1825, at fifty fl,ur degrees, forty-four minutes. The
space included between those boundaries is the region
in dispute, and the validity of the claim of the Uni
ted States has never been questioned, except by Great
Britain. The treat) of 1813, provided that the ter
ritory now in dispute should be free nail open for the
vessels and citizens of both powers, fur ten years,
without prejudice, however to the claims of eithei-gov
ernment. In 1823 the ne & ocintions were renewed by
our minister, Mr Rush, and the British Commissioners
declared that their government considered the whole
of the 'unoccupied portion of North America as open
to her future settlement•, and rested their claim chief
ly on alleged priority of diszovery. in 1827, the nr
tangement of 1813 was extended indefinitely, allow
ing each party to abrogate it by twelvo months no
tice.
We are indebted to the Family Magazine of 15 40.
for the principal facts dates referred to above. In the
same paper we find the following interesting extract
from Mr Irving's "Astoria." At this time, alien ev.
ery fact relating to Lill , interesting tegiun is read with
avidity, the rxtract, we have no doubt, will be very ac
oeptible to our readers. Mr. Irving says: "A re
markable characteristic of the country west of the
Rocky mountains, is the mildness and equability of the
climate. That great mountain barrier seems to divide
the continent into different climates even in the same
degree of latitude. The rigorous winters and sultry
summers, and all the capricious inequalities of tern
peratare prevalent on the Atlantic side of the moun
tains, are but little felt on their western declivities.—
Thecountry between them and the Pacific is blessed
with mii.der and steadier temperature, resembling the
climate of parallel latitudes in Europe. In the plains
ma valleys. but little snow falls throughout the win
ter, and usually melts while falling. It rarely lies on
the ground more than two days at a time, except on
the summit of the mountains. The winters are rainy
rather than cold. The rains for four rtmnths, from the
middle of October to the middle of March, ate al
most incessant, and accompanied by tremendous thun
der and lighting. The winds prevalent at this season
are from the south and southeast, which usually bring
rain. Those from the north to the southwest are the
harbingers of fair weather and a clear sky. The resi
due of the year, from the middle of March to the mid
dle of October, an interval of seven months, is serene
and delightful. There is scarcely any rain throughout
this time, yet the face of the country is kept fresh and
verdant by tbe nightly dews, and. occasionly,by humid
fogs in the mornings. These are not considered pre
judicial to health, since both the natives and thewhites
sleep in the open air with perfect impunity. While
this equable and bland temperature prevails throughout
the lower country, the peaks and ridges of the vast
mountains by which it is dominated, ate covered with
perpetual snow. This renders them discernable at a
great distance, shining, at times, like bright summer
clouds; at other times, assuming the most mend tints,
and &sitys forming brilliant and striking features in
the vast landscape. The mild temperature prevalent
throughout the country is attributed, by some, to the
succession of winds from the Pacific ocean, extend
ing from latitude twenty - degrees, to at least fifty de
grees north. These temper the heat of summer, so
that in the shade no one id incommoded by perspira
tion. They also soften the rigors of winter, and pro
duce such a moderation in clima , e that the inhabi.
tants can wear the same dress throughout the year.
• STATE TAX AGA Iti.—Wu are outhotized by Mr
Gunaingharn, one of the county Commissioners, to say
that the assertion of the American, that he and Mr.
DAVIT'', uniformly opposed the payment of Alleghe
ny county's share of the State Tax, is utterly untrue.
From first to lust, they were both anxious to effect a
proper arrangement to secure its payment.
So fur as Mr. DAvrrr, the treasurer, is concerned,
be was the first to urge the pnyrnent of tire county's
portion of the state tax, and he uniformly advocated
the measure.
In the remarks mode by its on Tuesday morning,
it was not designed, either directly or iedirectly, to
censure any person. At the time we were informed of
the fact that arrangements to pay had been made, it
was also stated that Mr. Magill was absent, and that
Messrs. Forsythe and Cunningham, had been very
tive in their efforts to secure timely, payment.
1:! As to the particulars of the arrangement; the terms
on which the balance of funds required was übtained .
or from whom, we made no enquiry. It was enough
for us to know that the much desired object was ac
complished, and that the county would contribute her
share to secure the payment of the August interest,
and preserve the credit of the state.
.11rSo far as we are -able to judge, says the N. Y.
Coatmercial, the disasters of the present calamity have
fallen upon a class of people "better ithle to sustain
them, and are therefore less likely to affect the commu
nity generally than those of the great fire of 1835.
The losses at that time exceeded the prearnt by at leas t
5 or GOO per cent, and the individuals affected occu
pied a more attended field in the trade of the country,
or a position where the loss was more severely felt.—
In Wm- words, the class of people at present suffer
ing are very largely those who receive on consignment
and sell to the city dealers only; a numerous put tion of
of the sufferers in 1835 were of the class who pur
chase of the importer or commission merchant, and
sell to the cou,,t,y Linde.
NIR • WC•NDLE3S—THE val.—We clip the

Ea/ogium.—We give in our outside of to-day's
paper, the Eulogium of Wilson M'Crirolless,
"delivered at Pittsburgh, before an immense audience.
Among the many eloquent eulogiuma that have ap
peared on this solemn event, which has called forth
such universal sympathy, we have not read one that
excels, either in beauty of thought, or rich and touch
ing language, thc.one spoken by Mr M'Candless, and
we assure our readers that it will fully compensate
them for the tiMespent in giving it an earnest perusal.

ORKOON MASg MEETING l'i SoI;THERN ILLINuIS.
—This meeting, held in Marion on the 4th of July,
says the Sangamo Journal (Whig) of the 24th inst ,
was attended by, itis stud, 5000 persons. Col JOHN
S Hsettsn, presided, assisted by numerous Vice
Presidents and Secretaries. After the organization,
and some preparatory proceedings, the meeting was
adjourned, to enable the people to partake of a splen
did bat bacue, prepared by the citizens of Williamson
county. On the re-assembling of the meeting, resolu
tions were presented, declaring the right of the Uni
ted States to the whole of Oregon, and calling upon
the government to terminate the joint occupation t i ea
ty, rind take immediate possession of the country.—
Resolutii.sns were also presented declaring it the duty
of government to constrict a Ship Canal from the
Mississippi to Lake Michigan, to establish forts, dock
yards, armories, in the West, fir the defence of the
country, &c. &c. These resolutions were all adopted.
Judge Breese. Col M'Clernasd and Judge Douglass,
addressed the meeting. From descriptions, we must
believe that the Marion meeting was the largest ever
held in Southern Illinois. Among the banners carried
in procession, was one with a signiffieant motto.—
"Oregon tcilhout negociotion."

SUM h,'l liftiG NEW.—The Caddo ( La.) Gazette con
tains a statement from Dr Pierce of that parish, giv
ing an account of the capture of a wild negro, who his
been frequently seen v.ithin the lust few years, but
heretofore has eluded all pursuit. Dr. I'. with a friend
tracked him by means of a pack of hounds, and after
running some miles, they beheld n creature coursing
along at great speed. and resembling a bear rather
than a man. When within ten paces of him they clm
manded him to stop, but instead of pausit.g he took to
the riven being still pursued he made fur a thick cane
break, in the midst of which was a large gum tree,
with a hole in it }erge enough for a person to squeeze
in. Into this the negro made his way, and although
he could be seen could not be gat out. It being near
night they waited till the morning, and finally secured
the negro by cutting a hole in the tree large enough
to get him out. He wns ferocious and indomitable,
fighting with fury, and was only subdued by a rope be
ing thrown around his neck and tightened until his
respiration was almost checked. It is presumed he
strayed off when he was quite scan, or perhaps Was
born in his retreat, as there were two skeletons in the
hollow of the tree, supposed to be the father and moth
er of the man that was caught. lle appears to be
fifty years old, weighs one hundred and thirty pounds.
and will eat nothing but raw meat, and that which is
tainted he likes the best. Ile will eat craw fish and
frogs with avidity when they are left in his wny at
night, but will not touch food in the presence of any
pet,on. Ili& hair and nails are very long. Ills body
is well sheltered from the cold and rain by the long
hair that covers it. He is very ferocious and has be
come extremely troublesome.
John Jacob Astor, it is said, lost one hundred
thousand dollars by the late five in New• York —about
one•sixth of his annual income.
DAMAGED GonDs.—lmmense quantities of goods,
damaged by the fire, continue to be sold daily in New
Yotk. People purchase burns goods at sixpence a
yard, when the sound article can be had fur ten cents.
1 - 77' ft i 3 understood, says the Washington Union,
that the Secretary of War, in a case recently submitted
to him, has decided that the permits given to individu
als allowing them to select tracts of land for mining
purposes, are not transNrable; and consequently, that
the leases for the land 3 so selected can b , given only
to the original permitter".
Da'AMONG , T THE LOSSFS, rays the Pennsylvani in,
by the great fire in New Yolk, all kill sincerely re
gret, the fle.truction of the plates of the immense and
beautiful work of Audithcm, the ornithologist. The
edition of his costly work which lias been iued was
very limited, and cons. imently the copies extant will
be esteemed in proportion to the scarcity. After so
many years of patient toil, to be thus deprived, in one
short hour, of the fruits which industry merits. and
his declining age requires, is a cruel fate. His loss
may probably be about $15,000 on plates, which are
wholly uninsured.
A P POI N T N T.-Wt. neglected to notice in o ur
last the appointment by the Governor of Fergus Cnn
non, Editorof the "Indiana Republican," Associate
Judge fur Indiana county, in the place of the late James
M'Kennon, Esq.
WESTWARD Ho!—The Green Bay, Wisconsin, Re
publican says:—The amount of money received at the
Green Bay Land Office during the month ending June
30th. fur private entries, was fifteen thousand nine
hundred and one dollar, forty-fire cents!!! And
the amount received for tho same purpose during the
quarter just ended, is almost forty thousand dollars!
Full nice• tenths is immediately occupied by eastern
emigrants. Comments are unnecessary.
AGRICULTURF.. — In one of his epistles to Arthur
Young, Washington uses the following language:—
" rho more I am seq tainted with agricultural affairs .
the better I am pleased with them; insomuch that I
can no where find so great satisfaction as in their in_
nocent and useful pursuits. In indulging these feel
ings I am led to reflect how much more delightful to
an undebauched mind, is the tusk of makingimprovri
ments on the earth, than all the vain glory which can
be acquired from ravaging it by the most uninterupted
career of contest."
T. It G IT CoCILEY.—The ed aor of a Buckeye pa
per has been threatened with a flogging. He very
quietly insinuates that he may be found up stalls.
and that. it is -but. forty feet to the bottom."
A PROLIFIC Cow.—We are informed that Benja
min Eaton, Esq, of Bowdein, Lincoln county, Me.,
owns a cow which, within a year, produced fire calves
—the last time three heifer calves—which are all
in a thriving condition, and v. hich the owner (who is
one of the largest farmers in that county,) intends rais
ing for his own dairy. Such en instance of fruitfulness
in a cow, seldom occurs
IMPORTLNT- - A Judge in Boston has decided that
a tailor is bound to make your clothes a proper fit,
and if failing to do so, you may return them within a
reasonable time. We should like to know whether if
you choose to keep them, you may not hare an indefi
nite time to pay the bill.
A BAD SPECVLATION. — Sume parties at Liverpool
recently sent a cargo of American ice as a speculation
to l'ortugal. American ice not being specified in the
tatiff, no impost duty exceeding two thousand dollars
was demanded. This exorbitant price was refused,
and the ice was thrown overboard.
A TOAST.—The following beautiful toast was given
by a bishop at the semi-centennial celebration cf Union
College on Tuesday last:
"The mothers of America, that ore, and that are to
be, cradling our infancy, charmers of our youth. corn.
(oilers of our manhood; we enthrone them on our
hearths, we enshrine them in our hearts."
From the Chronicle.
MEETING OF COUNCILS
iVednesday Evening, July 30
The President of the common Council being absent
at the special meeting, R. C. Stockton, Esq., was call
ed to the chair, pro. rem.
The ordinance for preventing milk carte from carry
ing bells on the Sabbath day, was taken upia Common
Council, and again laid on the table.
A report from the Water Committee was read, sta-
ting that a leak had occurred at the new basin, which
was at present being temporarily repaired, under the
direction of the Committee. The report recommend
ed the purchase of a lot adjoining the works, now the
property of Mr. Laughlin. The report was read and
accepted in both Councils, and the followihg resolution
was read three times and adopted in both Councils.
Resolved, That the Water Committee be, and they
hereby are authorized to contract fur the erection of
a wall that shall be deemed sufficient to secure the re
servoir, to be of the best ruble work, and if on the
outside, to be not less than six feet in thickness, and if
on the inside, two feet, in either case, to be made wa
ter tight, with good cement, and the space between
walls to be gravel !toddled.
A resolution authorizing the Water Committee to
rent, for the term of ten years, at *3OO per year, a lot
adjoining the Water Works, was passed in Select
Council. This was the lot of Mr Laughlin, above
alluded to, and the object of having it under the con
trol of the city was to prevent danger from fire, as
Mr L has a Smoke House on the lot. The Common
Council were of the opinion that a cheaper course
would be to render the Water Works building fire
proof.
Common Council adjourned.
An ordinance supplementnry to an "ordinance regu
lating the distribution of water, and fur the protection
of the Water Works," which had passed Common
Council on July 15th, was passed in Select Council.
A petition for the repair of the Scotch Hill Market
House was referred in Select Council to the Com
mittee on Markets.
Col. Diehl's petition for n stall in the Market House,
whieh was referred to the appropriate Committee in
Common Council at the last meeting, wus referred to
the same Committee in the Select. The Colonel says
he belongs to the ''ancient regime of butchers," and will
do things up right. We hope his petition will be
granted.
The resolution appropriating $2OO for rebuilding
the Niagara Engine, which passed Common Council
at the last meeting, was non-concurred in Select. Coun
cil. The resolution was referred to the Committee
on Fire Engines and Hese. The application, it was
stated, should have taken the usual course, and have
come through the Firemen's Association.
A bill of powder paid for by Thomas Donnelly,Esq ,
on the day of the fire, for the purpose of blowing up
a building to stop the fire, was referred to the Commit
tee on Claims and Accounts.
The resolution permitting the lessees of ground on
the hill, where the fire of May 27th occurred, to erect
frame buildings, provided they were not larger than
the ones burnt down, which had passed the Common
Council, was taken up in the Select Council and
amended by rests icting the buildings to the sites of the
old ones, and pawed . Adjourned.
