“Our fathers waterd with their tears
This sea of time whereon we sail,
Their voices were in all mens ears
Who passd within their puissant hail.
Still the same ocean round us raves,
But we stand mute, and watch the waves.”

“The Oregon [matter] and the annexation of Texas are now all- important to the security and future peace and prosperity of our union, and I hope there are a sufficient number of pure American democrats to carry into effect the annexation of Texas and [extension of] our laws over Oregon. No temporizing policy or all is lost.”
—Andrew Jackson (17671845)
