INTELLIGENCE BY THE BAILS. Afairs in Washington. Venezucla—The Treaty. Wasnincton, March 1, 1848. Orders have this day been issued, for two vea- sels of warto proceed to the port of La Guayra, for the protection of the people of Caracas, from the messacre which threatened them at the last advices. The two vessels will probably be de- tached from the Gulf Squsdron, should there be none et Norfolk ready to sail immediately. One of the Ih ies despatches tor Mr. Shields, chargé, containing instructions for his con- duct inthe trying cireumstanees, in which he will probably fiod himself placed. The longer the treaty remains under considera- ion, the great is the uncertainty of its fate. At one Uime,there is almost a certainty that it will be ratified, and at another, that it will be rejected A majority of the Senators have expressed no opigion as yet, either in-private conversatioa, or in secret debate. » very few Senators who approve the treaty, though there are as few willing to undertake the responsibility of defeating it. But if any pro- minent member of the body exert himself to de- fatit, he succeed without difficulty. Should itbe rejected, it will be with the understanding that the President be edvised to send a commis- Mexico, clothed with fullpawers to adjust ull difficulties between the United States and that republic Thus the prepositions of the Mexican overnment may still be entertained, and this »vernment will escape from the dilemma of ei- vrolouging a state of war, or else legalizing nt violation of the law. It isa little odd that, whilst the Senate, under advisement from ihe President, is deliberating on this treaty, its negotiator is, in all probability, on his way home, under arrest, for it is understood that or- Js carri ders had been transmitted to General Butler to | arrest and send him home. Tam happy to say, that there appears to be in the Senate,‘an entire absence of party spir.t in the consideration of this treaty. I believe the vote will be wholly free from unworthy bias. I there will be no attempts at covert inter- ference on the part of the Executive. It would be much better to lay this treaty quietly on the nd sppoint three commissioners to oceed to Mexico, to meet the commission- rs of that government, and conclude a treaty F The negotiatioa of the present reaty was in direct violation of law, and it would be a most strange proceeding for the ‘the United States, not only to connive emeanor, but actually to legalize it Mr. Trist had made a worse treaty—one tor instance, making the Nueces the boundary, aud yielding New Mexico, the power of the law of 1799 would have been immediately resorted to, for the purpose of nullifying his acts. Why should the law be ebused and disregarded be- cause Mr. Trist’s violation of it, though not less flagrant, is productive of somewhat less evil? GALVIENSI8. Wasuinetox, March 1, 1848. The Best we have about the Treaty. a treaty hangs by a hair, and yet it may hang as urely as the sword of the ancient barbarian. There are doubts about it—there are objections to it—it is considered a sorry piece of petch-work; yet as a measure involving the question of peace or war, it has great strength— a question decisive of peace, it is all power- © a question forestalling and foreclosing the Presidency on the cry of annexa- almost irresistibly potential.

Under the operation of the previous question, the amendment to reduce the salaries from $2 500 to $1,500, wes rejected—yeas 79, nays 105. Mr. icCuxruann maoved to reconsider the yote by which the bill was urdered to be engrossed for a third ding. (an eral gentlemen were inclined to give a ary of $2,009 ) Mr Cuinoman moved to lay that motion on the table; and the yeas and nays were egain taken. ‘The queation was decided in the negative—yeas 74 nays 116. The Srcaxer stated that the question now recurred on the motion to recontider, when Mr. Jonnson, of Tennessee, who made the motion yes- terday, to eubstitute a relary of $1.500 for $2,500, replied to the remarks of Messrs. C. J. logersell and Henley He said that the inference was, that he was opposed to science, and ail that sort of thing. It w: musing to see gentlemen becoming so scfentidc, all at once.

Johnson) trusted that great good would resul: trom it, and that the glob» will be covered with wires ltke a net work, that intelligence may be diffused every- | where ina moment of time. Le spoke, too, of Fulton and Whitney, the inventor of ths cotton gin; but did chat snow that Congress ought to increase salaries ? Yea, gentlemen sre very liberal with other people’s mo Another obstacle is contained in the six!h artiole, which provides, that our government shall not only pro- tect Mexico against the inoursions of the savage and formidable Indian tribes that intest her territory, but that we shall procced to recapture the prisoners now in their possession. This would be escaping from a bad war, to ucdertate @ worse one. ‘T'arss Indians have made, and will continus to make, constant war upon Mexico They have laid her towns under contribution, committed ravages, and carried fire and sword into her settlements, Aro we then to assume this privilege o! fighting her battles, for the consideration only of cuang. ing the character of our enemy—of opposing the scalp- ing knife and tomahawk, instead of the musket and 83- bre? If so, we are surely not making 4 treaty of peace, but a treaty for new unginterminavis war. Our strog gle with the Semipoles in Fiorids, cost the country some iorty millions of dollars. is would entail double the expense, andirom ths expanse of country, expose our gallant eoldiers to the remorseless enamity of the savage io his wildest and moat iofuriated state.

If that course is pursued, and it is strongly recommended by Mr. Jenton sod others, then the whole treaty may be put seide, and the com- missioner, understanding th» views of the Senate, may proceed to Mexico, and, upon the present basis, con- struct @ treaty withou: the objectionable features which, with other amendwe: that may be admitted, may render it more acceptable io both governments, ana contribute more satisfactorily to the permanence of peace.
