AltU upon tie subject of the boundary may be expected in a siiort time, is highly gratifying to the President, who baa, however, gives direction to the undersigned, in miking this acknowledgment, to accompany it with the expression of bis profound regret that Mr. Fox's note is in no other respect satisfactory. 4 After tha arrangements which. In the beginning of last year, were entered mto on tha part ot the two Government, with regard to lhe occupation of the disputed territory, tho President had indulged the hope that the causes of irritation which bad grown out ol this branch of (be subject would have been removed. Relying on lhe disposition of Maine to cooperate with the Federal G nmeajt in all that could lead to a spe cifio adjustment of tha principal juoKt:on, the Prcsi. dent lelt eonAJent that in determination to manum order and peace on the border would be fully carried out. . He looked upon ll apprehensions of dwign by lb pernio of Maine to take p Mansion of the territory, ! a without adequate foundation; deeming it improb. w utai oa me eve ot an amicable adjustment of lhe : question, any portino of Uie American people would, w mom ca ssaaa awtwnot otyet yoopard the suecess at Uie negoUatioB ind endangor the peace oflhe coun try. A troublesome, irritating snd comparatively un important, because subordinate, subject, being thus dis posed of, the President hoped that the parties would be left free st onee to discuss snd finally edjusWhe prin cipal question, la this he has bwrt disappointed. While the proceedings of her -MajeMyV-Governmcnv at home, have been attended, with onlooked for delays, its attention haa been diverted from the great subject in controversy by repeated complaints, imputinir to a portion of the people. of lhe United Slates designs to vi'.'nie the enniemsnbf of their Uorernm-nt 1 deSVns wh irh have neyer hferi entertained, and a-hirh Mr knows would receive no countensuco from' this Gov- eminent - - - , It 11 to b6 regret'ed that it Uii late hour, so much misapprehension still exists on the sid of the Briiiah -Government as to tha object rid. cAvioua tpuaning o( tha existing arrangements respecting the disputed SnrT ritory.
