The following are the remarks of Mr. Mac
Duffie, of S. C. on the Oregon occupation bill
in the U. S. Senate, on Wednesday. the 25th
alt, as reported by a correspondent of tbe,.Iour.
of Commerce. The views talten.are in our
opinion rational and sound, and we lay them
before our readers that they may in some
measure form an opinion of the, at present,
rather extraordinary movement of occupying
this distant Territory-. Of the features of the
bill, and the fact of its passage of the Senate.
our readers have already had information.
Mr. Me Duffie had the floor, in the Senate,
on this stibjec to day. and treated it in it
very satisfactory and able manner Mr. We
Dufiie is in very feeble lit.-alth and has been
His friends were apprehen-
sive that his strength would not sustain him
in the eflort. The Senate chamber was
crowded by the members of the House who
were anxious to heat‘ bini. Though he was
rnanifrstly weak in hotly, I did not perceive
that he had lost any of the vigor of his in-
tellect. l heai'd him often in the House,
during the administrtitiori of Mr. 1.. Q. Ads
auis, and Gen. Jackson; and his general
manner of speaking appears to be much the
same as formerly. At all events. his argu-
ment has given the coup de grave to this
Oregon scheme,
Mr. ;\lcDiifiic commenced by saying,-a
wise and prudent man. in any department of
human itflltirs, would be reluctant to engage
in any important enterprise, however clear
his right to do so, without well considering
the time appropriated to the S8mt‘,ll)(: means
by which it was to be iicconiplishcd, and
finally. without counting the cost, and the
benefit attending it, and, permit me to say,
that the worthy Si-nator of Missouri who has
;~i'esi-iited this bill, is totally overlooking these
considerziiians. All the Senators who have
spoken on the subject. have taken the ques-
tion of title for granted, as if we, and we only,
were to decide that question I have inves-
tigated the subject as fully as documentary
tesiiniony has enabled me, and I am free to
declare that the title of the U. States as far
its the 49th degree of latitude at least, is per.
fectly clear; at the szimetime,I would be
very sorry to assume the responsibility of
h.-iz-irding it war by acting on such 9. decision,
C*i“ll‘.lt:iItt‘l‘i forget that there are two parties
to the question. However clear to us may
be our title, but their title is no less clear tb
them. How is the question to be decided by
one of the interested parties? '
A few words as to the treaty of l8l3. ind:-fl.
oitely prolonged by thetreaty of’‘.'{.?'. to grant
a title to our citizens who emigrate-d to that
country, is a violation to thattreaty; the fact
cannot be disguised. We establish military
posts, and take possession of the soil, and in.
vite our citizens to make permanent agriculs
tural settleiuents.
Now, sir, I beg to inquire what is the ex.‘
isting emergency that calls on the U. S.,
who for 24 years have slumbered over this
matter, to take this step ? Vlfhen in prosperi-
ed by Mr. Webster. He still retains the
old family mansion and farm in New Hamp-
shire, and though visiting it but seldom, it is
kept in the best and inostproductive manner.
His roosris, with an extensive library, and a
bed, are reSei'ved for his use, the rest of the
mansion being occupied by his l1l.‘!DflgE‘I',-—
We cannot but believe that General Jack-
son at the I-lermittige, and Mr. Webster at
Marstifield, enjoy more real happiness and
tranquility ofuiiud in the inzinagetnvnt of
their farms, than while loading armies, or
wielding the destiny of nations.
MiLi'i‘ArtY EXECU'l‘I()NS.--In speaking ofthe
e.\'e(:uiion of Spencer, Cromwell and Small on
board the Sonieis, the Mobile Advertiser has the
following para,r_,vrupli. It contains some facts
not gerierally known, perhaps, and shows that
the conduct of Coinrrtauder Mackenzie is iioi
without soirie high precedents on the land. The
writer says:
“In Sltllllal’C:1S€‘S, or in this particular-case,

would not have sentenced them to the most ig.

Without the advice of any one, Gen.

tered at Valley Forge. Geri. \*Vayne, in his
t-iirnpiiign ng:il:.Sltl)(: confederate tribes of

ers hung without the form of trial, Major
John Paissgrove Mclntosh, while stationed
in Georgia. after the peace of 1783, during
a season of profound tranquility, ordered
three descrtvrs to be shot on parade, without
a trial; which proceeding was investigated
bv a select committee of the confederate Con-
gress, and reported ‘justifiable,’ which re-
port was confirmed by a resolution of that
body—(St-e journals of Congress of 1785 or
l789.) In ISIS Gen. Jackson caused Arbuth
not and Atnbrister to be slioi, pursuant to
the opinion of his officers, for stirring up
the Indians to murder, and supplying them
with the rnziterials to perpetrate it.”

ty, with an overflowing treasury, with
money that the ivitof man could not devise
means for spending, we never thought of
taking possession ofthe Oregon. What ex-
istingoemergency calls us now, at this un-
propitious moment, to adopt this measure?
If prepared for it in 1823, he would be deci.
dedly opposed to it now. \Vhat are our re-.
lations to England? VVe have just come out
ofa territorial contest that induced England
to send us the olive branch of pence--Eng.
land sent it to us, and I thank God that our
government accepted it.
[am not disposed to criticise that treaty
for the cession ofa little slip of land. If it
had ceded much more, I would have agreed
to it, rather than go to war, provided the
States concerned assented to it, and if there
was nothing in it dishonorable to the country.
The people owe a debt of lasting gratitude to
the administration who made this treaty.-
At the moment when one controversy has
just been adjusted. when the two nations are
shaking hands and thanking Heaven for the
blessings of peace-,—rtt such it moment it is
proposed that the Senate adopt militarv
means to assert our title to the exclusive or?-
cupation ofthe territory of Oregon. VVhat
would be the natural effect of this measure
upon England? They sent us the ollve
branch of peace for the adjustment of difler-
ences. We. send them back the flarnintr
sword of defiance forthe adjustment of anoth°-
er question. I have asked what is the e-
tiiergency for this step? Is there any proof
that we shall fail in this nogotiaiion! If
gentlemen believe that ultimately we must
reason why in our first step we should not
place ourselves in the wrong before the civi-.
lized world. Let us adjust this boundary as
we did the other. It _is'_said we must fill,-3
possession because England intends to do so ;
that all the acts of England look to a future
possession. I differ from gentlemen as to
this fact. If any one conclusion is to be
drawn from the documents, it is that Eng-
land has done nothing indicative of a desire
to make a permanent, exclusive, agricultural
settlement. All that she has done, is to
make such temporary establishment: as were
necessary for her for traders. The Senator
from Kentucky, (Mr. Morehead,) said that
England had established a fort, an hundred
miles north of Columbia river, but this was
but a mere stockade, temporary in its char:
acter, and only suited to repel the attacks of
the Indians; and so with all other forts.-
The only well founded allegations against
"England is. that she sells goods to the Indi-
ans cheaper than we do. There is not a soli.
tary act of Great Britain which indicates the
remotes: intention to occupy the country.
What construction would the British peo-
ple put on this act? especially usinterpreted
