The Xenia _Free Press_ says: A farmer in this county
informed us a few days since that he could raise a company
of fifty families who, if [supported?] by the Government,
would march, on short notice, for Oregon.
Also on the same page: The _State Register_ (Illinois) says
that the largest meetings it ever witnessed were held in
Springfield on Wednesday and Thursday evenings in the hall
of the House of Representatives, a couple of whigs talking
the British side of the question.
