Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Debates in the House of Representatives, on the Bills: For Carrying Into Effect the Louisiana Treaty The object of this resolution is to enable the executive to commence, with more effect, a negociation with the French and Spanish governments relative to the purchase from them of the island of New-Orleans, and the provinces of East and West Florida. The object is deemed highly important, and has received the attentive consideration of the committee. The free and unmolested navigation of the river Mississippi, is a point to which the attention of the general government has been directed ever since the peace of 1783, by which our independence as a nation was finally acknowledged. The immense tract of country owned by the United States, which lies immediately on the Mississippi, or communicates with it by means of large navigable rivers rising within our own boundaries, renders its free navigation an object, not only of inestimable advantage, but of the very first necessity. The Mississippi forms the western boundary of the United States, from its source to the 31st degree of north latitude, and empties itself into the Gulf of Mexico about the 29th degree of north latitude.
