Gallatin and Hon. Daniel Webster, on the newly discovered Map of the Nerth-fastern Boundary. An immense audience attended on Saturday night last a special meeting of the New Yerk Historical Society, which had been summoned for the purpose of hearing the remarks of the venerable President— the Hon. A. Gallatia—on the map recently found amongst the papers of thelateMr. Jay. Thechapel of the University was completely filled. A number which it is impossible to hf that any one can lay down beforehand sny positive rule. These cannot proceed on the assumed truth and accuracy of a geographical deline ation as the table before them. On the face of that paper the Madawoska was down as a north and south line—therefore, Mr. Oswald says, beginning at the north west angle of Nova Scotia and then reaching rownd, and then says the e:stern boundary shall be the River St. Johns from its mouth to its source. He goes, therefore, on the idea that the source of the St. Johns is at the northwest angle of Nova Scotia, or else he jatus io his description. The fact, as stated by you, sir, is, that this delineation of the Madawaska was erroneous. It is not anorth andsouth river. Errorsin thecalculaticn ef the longitude had led to give it a north ani south direction ; whereas it should havea northwest and southeast direction ; and this error carries the map in Fe any other documents now producible, that have mn before the commissioners in Paris in 1782. That fact, und the lines and marks which the map bears, lead to in- ferences ofsome importance. If they be not such inferen- ces as remove all doubts from these contested topics, they have yet no inconsidersble tendency towards the deduc- tion of other inferences drawn, or attempted to be drawn, from similar sources. I will advert to two or three gene- ral ideas, which it is always necassary to carr along with usin any process of reasoning upon this miljest. bet-us remember, then, in the first place, that the treaty of 83 granted nothing te the United States—nothing It gran- ted no political rights. It granted not one inch of terri- tory. The political rights of the United States hal been asserted by the declaration of independence in '76, and stood, and stand, and always will stand, (great applause).

The great mass of cotemporaneous maps are conformable to the claims of the United States, and the remarks read by the President of the Society are most cogent. The treaty negotiated in Paris under Lord —, by Mr. Oswald on the part of the Government, met with great opposition in the Bri- claimed by Great Britain on the one hand and the State of Massachusetts on the other. The question was the defi- nition of the boundary between England and Massachu- setts. Butas by the acknowledgment of the indepen- dence of the United States, England hed put herselt ina condition to treat diplomatically with the whole Union, this matter of disputed boundary bet ween England and the State of Massachusetts thencelorward became a question ef boundary between England and the United States; because the treaty-making power necessarily devolved yy the whole Union, as well according to the articles of confederation, as afterwards according to the constitu- tion of the United States.

With respect, sir, to the pul yn of Mr. Featherstonhaugh, and the tone of sundry articles in the London press about the Paris map, [ hope nobody supposes, so far as the government of the United States are concerned, that all these things are exciting a great sensation at Washington. (Laughter.) Going on the idea that eitherthere must be a second arbi- tration or a settlement by compromise—finding that no arbitration which would not end in acompromise would be snecesstul, the government thought it its duty to in- vite the attention of the two States immediately concern- ed to the subject—to ask them to take part in negociations about to be entered into, with an assurance that no line of boundary should be laid down without their consent—and also to allthe cooditions and stipulations of the treaty. To this the two States i their consent, that with unanimous. In this state of things, undoubtedly it was the duty of the government of the United States, to 1a} these States thus admitred into the n the information in their power.
