The Earl of Aberdeen-1 think it Is

My birds of I followed niy ow 11 inclination

should not only receive front the
kandor of my noble friend opposite an

been piirsued, but might fairly appeal to
the public at large, ;101l even to the whole
Itlurolie for its cmilirmation. A time

einsid wish li,r an opportunity to explain

question, as affects the interest and the

The noble Inhd has cursorily described
the elailds of this country and of the

Ms far as lie has guile. They, however,
would admit of a much inure detailed ex

My Lords, I wish also to state that our
position is precisely SW ii PS it has herb
for the last eighteen years, with 1t sprct
to Illir i ighbi, and the treaty which wash
wade in 18:27, renewing is rather con
tinuing the treaty of I 8 lb, which was !
for ten ye iniz. The treaty of 1827 tun
tinned Thal treaty linr an indefinite period,:
but with the provision that either party
;night terminate it by a year's notice.—
There is nothing ii hatever to prevent the
Gliveroment of the United hates; or (let'
Nlajesty's Goveritinetil, if lily thought
primer, from terminating II at b'i'aly of
I 8:27,1ty 2iiiing a yrai's notice for the pur
pose, which, however, the President !ht!';
not said he means to give; but it he does
mean it, he cannot dr et ilk 1 111 rpose with
out a vote of the Congress authorizing
him so to do ; the entigress will nut 1:1,1
unless specially called together anti!
Decenther, and even then the treaty can
nit ": ph,: without It year's notice being
given front the time at which the Pi esideul
receives the tweessary authority to give
1 such notice. Your lordships will see
therefore that in point of time, the mat
ter is not so urgent as might be supposed.
I need not say, that Iler Majesty's (lov

iil the intervening period which may ex

My Lords, I conFideC tear to be the
greatest folly, if nut the greatest crime of
which a country could ho godly, if lightly

able writer who said that if a proof were
wanted of the deep and thortiugh cor

it in not fact that war itself was some

jealous - but our honor is substantially
property that we cart certainly never iit.g.

ourselves and to our posterity io - adopt a
course contrary to all our desires--to all
our inclinations. Mt' Lord:, front what
I have said, your lordships will perceive

shall pervade this matter, if I continue to
ciinduct this negotiation; and I cannot

therefore, and fully believe; that we shall

April 4, Ilidioglit_ll-. the floose of
Commons Lord .1. Russell, on reading
lie order of the day ror pine; into cum
uli:l, i. or supply, called ine attention of
the ;bolse to that part of the message or
Ote l'ut.,itfoot or the United Stares which
related to the 04.egioi. The ['resident of
the United States had trr tie a perempto
ry claim to all this territory, and had
called Nom the citizens of the United
States to go forth with their wives and
children to take posession of it. Now,
Colombia *as become of more importance
each succeeding year. The government
ought, thereto. e, Co insist utt a speedy NO.
Chin of till. tfunNtiott; for there was
danger lest the cnizeos of the United
States should disturb British subjects in
the enjoyment of their property on the
Oregon, and should thus produce x collts
-14411 between the two git:ertititents. lie
was not prepared to say that Great Brit
ian should abate any of her just soviet)
sions; nor where We should draw the line
between tin. Americans and buiselve4.—
lie thought, I owevt.r, that we could not
accede to a proposal less than that Made
by Mt. Canning in 1827, with shy regard
to our lIWII
He had heard it said`that the value of
this territory was a inatter of Mita-re:ice
to us,but it was not a matter of indifference,
to us whether' .
iok k
we should yield any por
t
oy-our rritury to what he must be
lii-pirinitteil.to call a blii,tering announce

to us, that the means of Colll.llllllicatien

action which we carried 1111 with the
United state , . lie should hare abstain
ed from entering into this question if it
had been left as* iliphima tic question be•
tween the Eirl of Aberdeen nod Mr.
Butlianati,as the agents ()kite British and
American er iiments; but as it had heeti
taken out ot thi ir Irtti ts, lie could du
what the Minister of the Crown was
precluded by his position Irmo doing—
he could state to the people of EicAland
what were their rights. Having made
that statement, he would leave the whole
matter ill the hands of the Government,
aid lie had no doubt that they would con
sult the interests of the country acid the
honor of the Crown.
Sir Robert Peel could not he surprised,
and should not feel regret, that the noble
Lord had taken the course which he had
pursued. Ile was of opinion that whilst
these matters were pending in negoth•
lion between the two Governments, it
was platie to abstain from exercising the
right of di.cossion on subjects calcula
ted to excite popular feeling, unless there
were cogent reasons to the contrary. If
the noble Lord had thought it right to ile•
pit from that cdurse un this occa s ion, be
ii , ,ght hot to lie held responsible for the
consequences; kir it appeared that this
question hail been iviihdrann from
the cognizance of those to whom it had
been inthusted, and that a popular appeal
had been made to the paSsions of the peo
ple in the United States by those who
ought to have discountenanced such an
appeal. The noble Lord hail said, that a
Minister of the Crown spoke on such a
vestion as the present under a reaponsi-
Inlity to which lie (Lord J. Russell) was
MO liable. 'that was undoubtedly true,
an' he should therefore abstain from fol
lowing the noble Lord through his state
ment, as he could not do so without lin-
plying opinions from the expression of
which he ou t dit to abstain. Ile felt, how
ever, that it WAS open to him to inform
the house of the general state of our ne
gotiations with the United States oil this
questioii.
In the year 1818 the nmthern bound
ary of the possessions of the United
States and of Ghent Britian, westward of
the R ,, cky Mounthios, was defilied. No
agreement was made as to the country
beyond the Rocky Mountains ; but a con•
vention signed between the two Govern
ments in 1818, which was to continue
for ten years, gave Bright of Joint

President Polk !Ad been very recently

ken place with it,
He tleought it highly probable that Mr.
Paketiltain would have cotitittued with the
present I toyernment the negotiations
which he had commenced with the last;
lout he had no information on the subject.
lie trusted that the negotiations would be
renewed. Al no vt ry oistant period they
would know the result if them. lie did
not despair of their favorable tertninatit.n;
but if th.epronosals of the British Gov•
ernment should be rejected, and no prri•
posals were trititle by the Governotent of
the United states to which we could ac
cede, he should not object, on die put of
the Goierttinent, to lay, on the table, all.
the communitottions between the Isiotiov
ertinients., He still hoped that an ami
cable and eiluitable adjustment of the
Claims of It.' twonconnt ries might bit made.
He must, Itiow.tver, express his deep re
gret that, while the negottaiions were
sriil pentli4, the PreSidcnt e lu te Unit e d
States should. contrary to all usage, hove
ieferreli tD otter ColltiOttetteieS than a
Irietolly termination of them. Such an
allnsion was tint likely to lead to such a
result as lie friends to the real interests
of both countries desired. He regretteil
tint only the allusion, but also the nine
and temper in which it was mule.
As the subject had been brought under
discussion, he felt it to be his duty, on the
part of the Government, to state, id lan
guage the most temperate, but at the same
time the most tijcisiett, that we consider
Boit we have a right to this territory of
Oregon, which is clear and unquestion.
able ; that we desire an amicable adjust
ment of the differences between ourselves
and the United States ; but that, having
exhausted every rWort to obtain it. if' out
rights are invaded, we are resolved and
prepared to maintain them.
A tremendous burst of cheers froth all
pacts of the house hollowed this annunci

In consequence of an intimation which
Sit. It. Peel gave at the termination of his

dropped atter a declaration from Lord J.
Russell that he would not submit any
motion on this subject to the lionse until

On the table by lieu. Mojest)'s Govern

Lord PAlMerston then made a short ex

From the U. 8. Gdzette,
Allagar.ia.
We perceive 'the Tucicerrnan, one of the best
writers of the country. has come forth with a son
net in the Democratic 'Review, in honor of the none
of Ileennie cast noon thin country. I, l l'e hove
been looking rnrefolly nt this remaining and 6,1
that the ntnne for the (nimbi, loon well enough;
but travellern abroad me nt n • torn for a palr,rn
mic, (thm's a new word.) the term American being
so very'itichAl.e. Well. do they mend the 'muter
by calling the country A Ileaanin ! As the term is
derived from a geographical hump, nbriut which the
people abroad know but little, the poor United
Staten travellers will find that in nine canon out of
ten, the people with whomithey sojourn, will make
a confusion of tire geography with tho natural his
tory of the country, and call them—call the real
Americans--call the war dering United Stafes,s—
Alligators. The affair is natural, s and the differ
.enee between Allegan ir, the country, and A lligators
the people, is trot half so great an that between Hol
laid and the Dutch. Besides, the scientific mcd,
enirecially of 3 , rance, and, we suppose, also of other
EUropean countries, have already the association of
habitation and animal, in the Alligutor Alleghem
ensis of G,Jwin, and other baturaliste.
We advise the wiseacres and noodles of Gotham
to let aluhe the name of the country. Any, defi
ciency, wlifch may be discoverable will, lifty years
hence, he as Cosily accounted for, as is the absence
of wings on the crysalts. When the United IStates
shall have spread her dimensions eastwardly to in
clude the Antilles; southwardly, to absorb from
Texas to Terra dcl Fuego; westward to Oregon,
including the Guano Islands, and the stream of her
power shall
"Surge the north main to the Pole,"
then shall the name of A memo become a unit,
and the title "American," ho appropriate and
specific. Nootka Sound shall send her copper
colored cannibals to share in the hohor of a com
mon designation, and the represetitativ'es of the
broad-chested, spindle-shanked savaites of Mi.:
gellan will paddle themselves up the Potomac;
fur their convenience, a part of the Legislative
chamber will be supplied with water and boats,
instead of floor and chairs, and the wordy war of
the fierce "democracy" will become a sort of
naumachea—at least it will be an amphibious
discussion, in which the ventose qualifier; of our
brethren of the present West, will assist and ex
pedite the locomotive means of the newly admitted
members of the eitreme South. Then the Myri
ads of the Frozen LabradJr, shall be represented ;
