Hannegan the Senate proceeded to the consideration of Thi special order being the Bill to protect the rights of the american citizens in the Oregon territory the pending question being to refer the Bill to the committs on the judiciary with instructions or. Cass addressed the Senate As Fol lows i did not intend Lar. President again to trouble the Senate upon any question connected with our claim to Oregon or with the proper course of policy to adopt in support of it. And 1 avowed to those friends with whom i am in the habit of free consultation this determination to remain silent believing i had occupied my full share of the attention of the Senate and of the Public so far As the Public can be interested in any views of mine. I am now however compelled to break the silence i had imposed upon myself and again to vindicate the position in which i am placed. The honorable senator from Missouri has referred to to by name and if i would not seem to abandon the ground i have occupied i must defend it from this new and vigorous assault. I shall however be Brief avoiding recapitulation and confining myself almost exclusively to the two propositions submitted by the senator. One entirely new the other presented in the previous discussion but again brought Forward though with new facts and illustrations and to More Remote regions. The former is the assertion of the non existence of the line of fifty four forty and the latter the assertion that the parallel of forty nine Deg. Was established As a Boundary Between the British and French possessions by commissaries under tie treaty of utrecht and that it ran to the Northwest coast. The senator commenced by the work of demolition pulling Down before he built up. Clearing off the Niebish occasioned by the labor of others to procure a fair site preparatory to the task of re edification. And How has this system of Struc Tion and of substitution been effected tie process and the result i propose to examine. In the first place he announces that till now we have All been in error including the president and Congress and the country and no such line As the parallel of fifty four forty has been established As the Northern Boundary of Oregon and he considers that this correction of a great popular error is enough to quiet the excitement which has been got up about it. I fear sir that the honorable senator deceives himself and that this excitement As he terms it or this conviction of the extent and Justice of our title As i term it is far beyond the reach of any new Reading of old documents however Gigantic May to the intellect which puts itself to the task of giving out and vindicating a new system of National rights or any new evidence in support of Vliem. The honorable senator is As competent to the performance of this labor As any one among us. But sir when a great question like this has occupied the attention of an enlightened country and government in some Mode or other for almost half a Century and More recently has called into its service the Heads and tongues and pens of hosts of Able men in Public and in private life the discovery and promulgation of new views giving an unexpected direction to a great controversy is not indeed impossible but it is so far improbable that he who claims the title and the Reward of a discoverer must expect to have his pretentious investigated with much care and admitted with much caution. The honorable senator in the exultation of anticipated Success Speaks of the philosophy of the fifty four senators and says Quot there is an end of that question All gone vanished evaporated into the air and the place where it was not to be and then comes the parturition of the Mountain and the birth of the mouse. It is a Good old fable and intended to convey a useful truth. But is somewhat dangerous in its application especially when he who appeals to it in the very act of decrying the labor of another announces sex Cathedra the value of his own. Pulling Down to build up annihilating one line to establish another 1 there is Sutti a thing As putting the Saddle on the wrong horse. The honorable senator says Quot there is no Boundary at fifty four forty. I quote his very words and join Issue with him. If there is not i shall then confess that i for one no liable to All the sneers he Casu upon the fifty four forties As he Calls them and Tipon their cause while if there is i shall leave the honorable senator the position he has assumed. And whence this declared popular error respecting the Boundary Lino of fifty four forty. It originates says the senator in the treaty with Russia concluded in 1824, the third article of which he quotes Quot at. 3. It is moreover Joreed int hereafter in cry shall not to formed by the a aliens of the United Sut 9, or under the authority of the said state any establishment upon the Northwest coast of America hoi in any of the it Niue Bijj Acerit to tit Nora Mim a Nib latitude 1 and tha a a the a a , there shall be none Ormed by russian a ejecta or undo the Tat Hority of Kano a Mph of the same Paramel Quot a bpm mid a vol. I. Indianapolis Friday june 19, 1846.no. 40. Now sir this one would think is Clear enough. Here is fifty four forty established As a Boundary As plainly As words and types can establish it beyond which the claim of the United states cannot extend. It is the nothern limit across which we cannot go. We May March up to it with that Russia has no concern but the moment we attempt to put foot Over it we shall be met by this convention and our plighted Faith not to pass it. If this is not a Boundary to us i am sure i do not know what Boundary we can have there or anywhere else. It is a Point not to be discussed. It gains no strength by argument no clearness by illustration. It is a Homiday line and when that is said All is said. I am Well aware it is a line in posse and not in Esse established upon paper and not actually marked upon the surface of the Globe. But so is most of the Boundary Between us and the British possessions and Between us and Mexico. And the senator himself in his argument where he undertakes to prove the establishment of the parallel of forty nine As the line fixed under Ali treaty of utrecht expressly says it a established but not run. It was Neverth. Of de effects Are said to be Felt upon the rights of nations at this Day. All boundaries Between countries which Are not natural lines or Marks must to first fixed by diplomatic arrangement and when this is done their establishment upon Earth becomes a question of fact and is usually committed to scientific persons who give practical effect to the labors of the Diplomatist. If therefore the parallel of fifty four forty should remain a paper instead of a visible Boundary till doomsday it would nevertheless be a Barrier beyond which we could not pass and might at any time to ascertained by astronomical observations and marked upon the ground should such a measure become necessary to assert the jurisdiction of the one party or to arrest that of the other. After quoting the third article of our treaty with Russia the honorable senator proceeds to quote the third article of the treaty Between Russia and England regulating their Mutual pretensions to tin same Region. And to controls the construction of one treaty by what legitimate process i know not by the provisions o the other. He says and strangely too that Quot they Are identical in objects am nearly in identical in objects. Why sir one is a treaty Between Thi United states and Russia for the adjust mint of their Mutual pretensions and the other is a treaty Between England am Russia for the adjustment of their Pretzn Sions. Until it is shown that America pretensions and English pretensions Arlt the same the identity of the objects of these treaties will be among the a Quot Ries that Are Lobo yet made. Quot nearly identical in terms Quot this sir is almost an equal mistake. To show it i Wil quote this third article of the Anglo us Sian treaty Quot aut. 3. The line of Damn ration Between possessions of the High contracting parties upon Thi const of the continent and the islands of America 10 the Northwest shall be drawn in tie Mann i following commencing from the Souther Mosi Point of the Island Cash Prince of Wales Island which Point lies in the parallel of 54 decrees 40 min utes Anil the �33d degree of West Longitude Meri. Dian of Greenwich the said line Sholl ascend 10 till North along the Channel called Portland Channel Ai far As the Point of the continent where it strike ii 58lh degree of North latitude from this last mentioned Point to inc Point of inner Section of the Musl degree of West Longitude will prove to be at Thi Dis Linneo of More Hati ten Marine leagues from Iho he limit Between inc British Side indiscriminately so much so that the senator actually says Quot i have shown you the limits As cola Blishel with Russia in 18-21 i have pro Ducco the ire Iivo not treaty which establishes them and Here also is a map which Illus nites them and shows every thing precisely As i have read it from the Tratia Quot not treaty lie then proceeds to Point out errors which it is not necessary 10 examine for they have reference Del sively to the treaty Between great Britain and Russia and not to that Between Russia and the United stoics. Our treaty merely provides Thi the parallel of fifty four forty shall b Ern Boundary. Now the Lii wha Igli. In and undeniable Boundary which Iii a sessions a Boundary so Plain indeed o who runs May read it in the treaty therefore is the direction of the other line Iglo Kussian line which the senator has discuss fifty six or Silty on Deg., or indeed Tui he North pole touches us As Little As any other question in Quot pc Fiffi ill four is res oscillated brought to life an e.ti5iing Boundary to which we May go but beyond which to May not pars. We can Jam us to it without any Imp Lalion upon or Wisdom or our Honor Quot and the place where it ifs Quot is yet there and there it will continue it will to recollect senator has staked the of this line of fifty fou russian treaty he Bis construct to that led Mil a repudiate this Hita cd without tie line to senator says it of a treaty ind refuse 1 the honorable i Isle though the Honor fined by the precise terms of y Quot to the islands and coasts and having Ler of relation to the and this is the russian Lino on Iho Conli a great Britain the United slates have Enlal line either Wilh Russia or Garcal a ugh the ave Quot no Boundary a 0 docs this line Stop i fifty four us Easterly pro save it docs no the lir Mecl of findings 0 which is to belong 1 11 be formed by a Une parallel 10 the coast and which shall therefrom and Fol Ilu bied parallel to the coast As far As Section of the 141st degree of weal and Fili ally from 10 Point 01 intersection the or. _ i4ist re Irreg on the a Mann a cart. _ russian and British possessions on the continent of America to the now sir i do not quote this article because it has the slightest bearing upon our claim or ought to have upon investigation of its extent but to show the mistake into which the honorable senator has been led when he considers these two articles As identical either in their objects or in their terms. They Are almost As dissimilar in the one As in the other. The Effort of Russia was the same. It was to procure a recognition from the Only parties whose claims interfered with hers of her title to that part of the country. This she effected by a stipulation with the United states that they would assert no pretensions North of fifty four forty generally and a stipulation with England that she would assert none North of the same line and West of ten Marine leagues from the coast. On her part Russia relinquished Oil her pretensions South of fifty four forty but without touching the conflicting Claths of the other parties leaving them to adjust these in their own manner As they would or As they could j and both England and the United states Are As free this Day to assert each its own title and to oppose that of its adversary As they were before the execution of these conventions with Russia. I therefore remove from this discussion All the. Honorable san nor has said respecting the object the terms and Iho Eirc Crof this treaty Between England and Russia. Quot we Wera no Pajti i it was formed a year after oar treaty Wil latter Power and. A had Nat As ranch i. Regulate the descent of the Crown of Pusata and England a those tonight 10 Iho Oregon Teni Lory. In fad they a armed no such Mon Krona pretensions. And must confess my Surprise that Are introduced Here As binding of controlling o territorial claim. And yet these two ail ice Aro placed by the honorable senator in a Nola position a though iter were parts of lbs aame int nement and Hia deduction respecting our Lighta seem to a drawn from Ono or the other i mus be Permil Coo i of Tho com and adjacent Lollie coast. To v const of americ geographical div ii and the adj Accel i of these conv Clio claim is confined to 1 by each the same listed Stales and great through Portland ii annul 1 nil sir. The Sel the same have in the lame limit s. The fact is Lilov have Noi. Ours is the parallel of fifty Neal and insular for the Dis senator Between the two is wholly Matu Ilous unknown 10 the convention. The British line commences at a Point on that parallel and then quits in running thence such courses As give to Russia an irregular parallelogram extending North and South along the coast and East in Width ten Marine leagues from the sea. But what is the meaning of the phrase Nori i Ait Nasi of am Ira in this connexion to what client May it be fairly said to teach in the Bri ish treaty As above quoted the question is placed beyond control Crsp. The russian possessions As Between England and Russia Are limited to ten Marine leagues from the coast. As Between Russia and us there is no Lim Lalion and if a Lim Lalion be sought it must be found in the circumstances and in a fait application of the language to them. It is a geographical fact Well known to All who have inc obligated the Subj cd that the Narth Ucil co Tut of Amenea is the name by which a Large Bui indefinite Region upon the shores of Iho Pacific extending eastward without positive Lin iils was designated and recognized As Well in works of geography and history a in diplomatic Docu meals. It was a descriptive term applied to a vast country. Shell place this beyond controversy by reference to unquestionable authorities.

Until that is produced i fur one shall protest against Tho rights of our country being limited or affected by the Assumption of a line resting Mere y upon Loose Assen ions and upon deductions made for them. With respect to the existence of this Lino under the treaty of Ulrech what evidence nol already considered and As i think i Iris refuted has the from Mil Quot Quot a.
