"A French Paper contains the following extract from
the National Intelligencer of March 10:—"Congress, informed
that the Russians & the English still continued to extend their
respective establishments in the north west parts of America
has resolved to take measures for maintaining the sovereignty
of the United States over those immense territories which the
American Republic first discovered & occupied. A city will accordingly
be founded at the mouth of the river Columbia, & military ports
established on the branches of it. Whenever the number of inhabitants
(American) shall amount to 2000 souls a civil administration
is to be constituted. The new state so formed shall
assume the appellation of the State of Oregon, instead of that
of the District of Columbia. Its extent will be greater than that
of all England; & this will be forever done away all confusion
as to the District of Columbia, of California & the
Republic of Columbia in South America."
