To the House, of Representatives of the United State's: When the President lias given his official sanction to a bill which has passed .Con gress, usage requires that he shall notify the Holisein .which it originated of that fact. The mode of giving this notification has been by an oral message delivered by his private secretary. Having this day approved and signed an act entitled. An act to establish the ter ritorial government of Oregon, I deem it proper, under the existing circumstances, to communicate the fact in a more solemn form. y: The deepty interesting and protracted discussions which have taken place in both houses of Congress, and the absorbing in terestwhich the subject has excited through out the country justify, in my judgment. this departure from the form of notice ob served in other cases. In this communication with a co-ordinate branch of the government, made proper 'by the considerations referred to, I !ial I i frankly and without reserve,- express the reasons which have constrained me not to signature from the bill to establish-a government over Uregon, even though the two territories of New Mexico and California are to be left, for the pre sent, without government. None doubt that it is proper to establish a government in Oregon. Indeed, it has fceen too long delayed. I have made repeated recom mendations to Congress to this efTect. The petitions of the people from that distant region have been-presented to the govern ment, and ought not to be disregarded. To give them a regularly organized gov-' ernmeht, and the protection of our laws, which as citizens of the United States they claim, is a high duty on our part, and one which we are bound to perform, unless there be controlling reasons to prevent it. Jn the progress of all governments, ques tions of such transcendent importance oc- casiona,,y arise a9 cast in the -shade all 'those ot a mere party character, .jsut one such question can now be agitated in this country; and this may endanger, our i : i t .1 c iuinju3 Luiuii, me suurcc ui uur rcaiiiess, ; mestic peace and security of every fahiilyi The fathersof the constitution--the wise and patriotic men who laid the foundation of our.institutions-foreseeingahe , danger from this quarter, acted in a spirit of com promise and mutual concession bn this dan gerous and delicate subject; and their wis dom ought to be the guide of their succesi- sbrft Whilst they left to the States excluM this Ufe'day, iii attempting to annul what sively the question tof domestic slavery38 been 60 long established and acquiesc within their respective limits, they provide fin Xo excit sectional divisions and ed that alaves who might escape into-'otW"68.108"1'10'"116" the people of dif States hot ' recognising the institution of jferent' portions oT the tUnion from; each recognising slavery shall HbeJ delivered ;up !dn- the claim of the party to :Whom! such service or labor may be due."

States, under the .name of Louisiana, which lies jiorth of thirty-six degrees and thirty -minutes north latitude, not included within the li mits of the State, 'contemplatr ed by. this, slavery;" and involuntgry ser vitude, otherwise, than in the punishment of crimes, whereof, the parties .shall have been duly convicted, shall, be, andJsberer by, forever prohi bited: provided always That any person escaping into the same, from whom labor.or, service is lawfully claimed in any. State on 'Territory of the United States, such fugitive maybe lawfully reclaimed, , and conveyed to- tfid person claiming his other labor4 or services ufore- said.,,. ; . . ' i j ..." . This eompromjsc had the eflfuct of calm ing, the troubled wayt;s,and restoring peace and good-will throughout the States of the Union ' : The Missouri question had excited in tense agitation of. the public mind, and threatened to divide the countrv into geographioal parties, alienating the feelings of attachment which each portion oV our Union should bear to every other. The compromise allayed , the excitement, tran? quilized the popular, mind, and restored confidence and fraternal feeling. Its au thors were hailed as public benefactors. , I do not doubt that a similar ad justment of the questions which now agitate the public mind would produce the same happy re sults. If the legislation of Congress on the sided ai the birth of our institutions finally subject ofjthe other Territories shall notition on the Missouri compromise, or some be adopted in a spirit of conciliation and; other equitable compromise, which would compromise, it is impossible thatjhe coun try can be satisfied, or that the most disas trous consequences shall fail to ensue. When Texas was admitted into the Un ion, the same spirit of compromise which guided our. predecessors in the, admission of M issouri. a quarter of a century, i before, prevailed without any serious opposition. The joint resolution for annexing Texas to the United States, approved March the first, one thousand eight hundred and forty five, provides-that "such States as may be formed out of that portion of said territory lying South of thirty, six degrees thirty minutes north latitude, commonly known as the Missouri compromise line, shall be .i : it., tt ...:u ! . uuiniucu imu uieuuiuu w,m m. jmuu slavery, as me people oi eacn oiaie- or-j States asking admission may desire. And : in such State or Sutes as shall be formed out of said territory north of the Missouri ; servitude (except lor crime) shall be pronto you. It is justly so; for it is a main hihited. The territory of Oregon lies far north of thii ny-S,x(oegree8 imnyminuies.uie ivns- iri and Texas compromise line, -Its SOUl "ud.y.

And for what cause would we endanger our glorious tJhion? The Missouri compromise con tains a prohibiton of slavery throughout all that :vast region extending1 twelve 'and a half degrees along the Pacific, from the parallel of thirty -six degrees thirty minutes to that of forty-nine degrees, and east from that ocean to and beyond the summit of the Rocky mountains. Why then should our institutidns be endangered because it is proposed to submit to the people of the remainder of our newly acquired territory lying south of 36 degrees 30 minutes, em bracing less thtm 4 degrees of latitude, the question whether, in the language of the Texas compromise, they "shall be admitt ed (as a State) into the Union with or ivith out slavery?" Is this a question-to be pushed to such extremities by excited partizins on the one side or the other, in regard to our newly acquired . distant possessions on the Pacific, so as to endan ger the union of thirty glorious States which constitute our confederacy? I have an abiding confidence that the sober reflec tion and sound patriotism' of the people of all the States will bring them to the con clusion that the dictate of wisdom is to follow the example of those who have gone before us, and settle this dangerous ques- reispect the rights of all, and prove satisfac- tory to thedifferent portions of the Union; Holding as a sacred trust the Execu- tive authority for Ihe whole Union and hound to guard the rights ot all, 1 should hold my .oiQScial sanction from jm y measure I which wuuiu cumiim wuii uiese iniporiani objects.
