INTELLIGENCE BY THE HMAIL?. 4ffairs in Washington. Wasmineton, March 8, 1848. “Ivdependent,” the correspondent of the Phi- ledelphia North American, gets all his informa- tion of doings in executive session, from Man- gum and Clayton. He is used by them. He is named Harvey—the same who once, in an ano- nymous letter to the Hera/d, designated himself the “elegant and accomplished Mr. Harvey, of S ©." Hisemployées and the whig Senators fa- vor the idea of commissioners to Mexico, and it is likely that that will be the plan agreed upon — In the meantime, (incase that course should be taken,) the ten regiment bill will be pressed, and both parties will be better able to complete ar- rangements for the convention at Baltimore and Philadelphia. Sierra, the agent of Yucatan, has sent in a pro- test against the ratification of the treaty. Itis thought that the plan of the whigs now is to run Taylor in the South, and Clay at the North—to throw the election into the House— there compromise on Clay—13 whig States, 12 locofoco ; and by “ operating” on the number of the doubiful States, to carry the election. ‘Webster made a long speech against the trea- ty—so did Benton. Trutn. Wasurneton, Marcu 3, 1848, The Treaty. After all, night isa great ratifier of treaties stamped with executive approval. Heaven for- bid I should say that anything is done in Wash- ington at night that is not perfectly fair and legitimate. If Asmodeus himself were to pene- trate with prying inquisitiveness into the inner penetralia of Presidential retiracy, he could not, Tam very sure, at such a time as the present, when executive interference in the legislation of the country would be so absolutely indecent, find Mr. Polk discoursing to senators of the ad- vantages to be secured to the party by the ratifi- cation of this treaty, or laying plans how this man can be persuaded,* or that man muzzled; nevertheless, I will venture to affirm the propo- sition, that the greeter the number of nights that shall elapse before the final action on the treaty, the stronger will be the chances of its ratifica- tion. An eminent senator has said * there thould be no nights in legislation”—on the con- trary, night is the very aptest time for ratifying treaties. Beneath its’ peculiar influences, diffi- culties melt into thin air, doubts are dispelled, declarations are forgotten, and a man wakes up in the morning believing with the most innocent eouscience in the world, that consistency 1s one of your worst vices. i The chances now are unquestionably that the treaty will be confirmed. At one time there existed almost a pee aaay, that it would be re- jected, so fluctuating are the sentiments of even grave senators. Mr Benton, Mr. Webster, and Mr. Allen are 8 most strenuous opponents; Mr. Calhoun, Mr. Foote, and Mr. Sevier, its most powerful advo- cates. The sentiments of these gentlemen have been known from the beginning. They are of course uachangeable, and have influenced, al- though without any effort, many votes for and fgainst the ratification. Mr. Webster, Mr. Ben- ton, and Mr Allen, have already spoken against the bill. Mr. Calhoun will speak, in all proba- bility, on Saturday, in favour of it. GauviEnsis. Wasnincron, March 3, 1848. The Treaty. Mr. Sevier has been straining every muscle to getaverdict upon the treaty this week. To- morrow is the last day of his limitation ; but there will hardly bea decision to-morrow. There are two difficulties to an immediate and prompt settlement of the case. The first is, the illegitimacy of the bantling, and its rickety or- ganization. There isa general desire to turn it adrift; but then Senators are confronted with the second impediment—the responsibility of prolonging the war, in refusing these maileable stipulations. Hence the tenacity with which this decument of Mr. Trist sticks tothe Senate. It is the re- ible question of peace which is in their ds, and they know that they will be held ac- countable if peace is suffered to slip through their fiogers, when the country is firmly of the opinion that peace may be secured—honorable, satisfactory—possibly permanent, but certainly judicious and expedient. During the week, in the Senate, as far as the revelations through the key-hole have given a clue tothe deliberations apon the subject, the prospect has been changeable, but good all the way through; and the opinion to-night is, that while on tue one hand the treaty will be modi- fied in its details, it will not be so far changed ia its general or broader features as to hazard a non-acceptance by the Mexican government. Omitting the tenth article, we understand that the division of the Senate upon the treaty is, gs nearly as can be ascertained, as follows :— Democrats. For the Treaty. ™ Ashiy, Merers.

A treaty willbe made out of Mr. Trist’s sche- ule The very fact, that for the last three days the Senate have been debating and voting upon amendments, is conclusive that they do not in- tend to east the illegitimate child of an uaprece- dented experimeat out of doors, but that they will dress it up as decently es they can, aad adopt it 4 The discussion to-day was discursive and general; the doubt this ma te? among the de- mocrats is only with regard to the final action of the whigs ; but the whigs know their plan, and will not suffer themselves to stand before the country as the cause of a prolongation of the war. The treaty will be modified, and given to three i ners to take it to commissi Mexico, and work it upto a satisfactory, firm, and universal peace, and Mr. Benton is spoken of as the head of the ‘Tus Docror.

The Military Committee of the Senate, as it hes already been stated, have closed their labors on the memorial of Lieut. Col. Fremont, pray- ing an investigation of the claims ot citizens of California against the United States, for money and supplies furnished by them for the use of the United States, and for which the faith of the government is pledged. The general nature and probable amount of the claims are estimated by Col.

The Vice President laid cue folinwing message, with ite enclosures, before the Senste. To the Senate of the Uniied State: In answer to the resolution of the Senate of the 34 of January, 1848, 1 communicate herewith @ report feom the Seoretary of State, with the accompanying do- cuments, lence of Mr. Wis late mini ail, relecing to the subject of the slave trade JAMES K. POLK. Wasuixcton, March 2, 1) ‘The letter of Mr Buchanan communicates the corres- pondenee to the President stipulations between the United States and Great Bri- ject, and of the duty of both nations in toe premises. We give the opening of the argument of Mr. Wise, which is as follewa:— Mr, Wise to Mr. Hamil/on, Leoatioy or THE Usitep States, July 31, 1846, His Excerurncy Hamitton Hamitton, &3 :— The copy of the despatch of the Earl of Aberdeen, communicated to me on the 26th of March last, dated the 4th of December, 1545, acknowledge: in that year” be received from your Excel information of Her Mejesty’ ronment, a copy of my letter addressed to you, dated the let of December, 1844 I refer thus particuisrly to dates, for the purpose of re- marking that, for many aud obvious reasons, it was de- sirable that his jordebip’s review ahould have followed sooner, if possible, in point of time after the receipt of my letter by Her Majcecy’s government, ‘Acknowledging the receipt of a copy of my letter, bis lordship enumerates three causes woich made tt impos- sible for Her Mejesty’s government to pass it in silence lst. The great importance whieh, in the estimation of Her Mejesty’s government, attaches to the subject of that communication 2d, The charges which, although ina tone of friond- ship, it brings against.the British nation at large, vot ex- copting Her Mejesty’s naval officers and other servants. 34 And above ali. the public attention drawn to it by & message addresred by the Presidewt of the United States to Congress, on the 20th of February, 1949. 1 am bappy to remark, npon the first of these alleged causes, that the principal object, at least, of my letter to your exceliency bas been obtained. its aim was to Brouse and attract the aitentioa of both governments to certain aspects of the slave trade, which had not been sufficiently, if at all, exposed to either ; to make manifest certain of ite evils and its auxiliaries in the very bosom and the very home of Great Britain herseif, wiich were immediately tan- gible to her remedial power; and thereby, to convince her Mojesty’s government that more importance even should be attached to the subject than had—great aa it undoubtedly war—hitherto been ascribed to it. Her Majesty's governioent had been in the habit of treating the rlave trade st this day as a subject more nearly, it not entirely, touching its foreign relations; as an evil belonging rather to other nations and to other powers, which it was its abstract duty of humanity merely to suppress, and not as one which practically concerned 60 much itsown domestic policy and the good government ot British subjects and British interests themselves. It was deemed, therefore, that the agents of the slavedealers in Brazil, in negotisting the sales and the charters of American vessels, and that British goods chiefly are sent ‘and consigned to make funds for the slave trade on the comet of Africa, and that British capital and credit ore used hero to guaranty the payments. It {informed your Excellency, further, that it is said, that incon- sequence of the long credits of British manufecturers and merchsnts, extended to the Portuguese and Brazi- lian merchants who ship goods to the coast, and in con- sequenes of the fact that the chief security which the British merchants have tor payment, is the successful tales of these goods in Africa, the English cruisers will not now capture or destroy them, because their blow is found to fall upon the trade and commerce of heir own countrymen. It informed your kxceliency farther, that “it is asserted here pcsitively. as | bed in- formed you on another oceasion, that the British crui- sera do not take the proper and active steps to prevent the shipping of slaves in Afrios, sud that the motive alleged was, that they seem to desire the slaves to be shipped, to be once put on board, in order to obtain the bounty of so many pounds sterling per capita, for their capture, and to rend them as apprentices to Demarara, and other possessions of Great Britain.’’ It informed your Excellency that it was alleged, more- over, that (he obvious effect, if not design, of the British efforts on the African coust, was not so much to supprese the African tlave trade as to monopolize the African commerce, and particularly to exclude the trade there from the United States Information in a friendly tone that an imputation, whether trae or felse, is made by ot! is not the bringing of a charge yourself ; and wi undertake to assert and to eauction, deemed by me eufficient, whether amounting to “charges” or not, | sm etill prepared to estabiish. But upon none of these facte did my letter bring any cbarges whatever ogainst the British mation at large, not excepting val officers and other ante. W! po! evidence, it so asset ; and when it gave infor of acousstion, it spoke ou the ipee diwit of othe: ey where it ly asserted facte upon which wrges could bs made at all, they related to British subjscts only, and not pon ‘mation And it ‘poke of the ob Drought by thes, oe e ot whe- |} ther agsins: the British oon oment or pF at large. ost her Mejesty’s waval officer ly even, toranction there 6 Merely ot jsotions to the national ia, whien, whether well or iil tou removed by her tur from panctio rated to be mai ber repels them by the st, of the most wt of them, might be but “ anart of the African im order to divide their opponents.” ‘These allegations, whether deemed charges or not, were ad- duced in soy other than ® reortminating spirit. Of this your Exeeli¢acy was, doubtiess,well assured, And | ‘Sut glad thac his Joraskip even acknow!odges the “{riend- limes” of the tone of my letter. But, more of these ebarges, and the spirit in whiob they were made, s pecl- jrsty’s goveromes 1 of th i a it.— is lordship, 1 observ. that he received a copy of my letter early in the year 1845—that the message of the President of the United States communivating it to Con; was da- ted the 20th of February, 1945; that on the 18th of Mareh following, Mr. Adl+m propounded certain ques- tions, aud Sir Robert Peel answered them, in the House of Commons ; and certain strictures appeared in the London papers, enpeciaily under the signature of a “British Merchaut.” upoa the answer of Sir Robert Peel—all well calculated to create erroneous impressions in respect to the message itself, and the source of infor- mation oa which it was founded, which were lef: free to circulate, and to grow and strengthen into conviction, whilst I was kept waiting uatil the 26:h of March, 1846, for a legitimate occasion to cor- rectthem. Kaowing that truth foliows but slowly, at beat, in the foo'steps of error, my intention at fret war, after receiving the debate in the House of Commons, to make it the orcasion of addresting your Excellency agsin, and [ commenced a letter with that view. But certain causes prevented me from doing so, and I am rather pleased that | awaited the direct opportunity now afforded me by his lordship of answering not only his dispatoh, but the debate in the House of Commons, and of correcting all error, as far as | can, on both sides, and for justifying the President’s messege.and the infor- mation on which it was based, forwarded by me to the Federal Executive, Thisis what 1 purpose, with pa- tence, to do, in the same tone of candor and of friendli- ness witn which my correspondence with your Exoel- lei 7. was commenced. {Mr. Wise then proceeds toa Jegal argument of the conse, very long and very decided, and making o clear exposition of this business of the slave trade } ‘Then follow @ series of acoompanying letiers, state- ments, communications, vouchers, &> , to wit March 24, 1846—Mr, Hamilton Hamilton, British Con- sul,to Mr. Wise. 3 escornbes 4, 1845—Tho Earl of Aberdeen to Mr. Ham- n.

The Clay Mass Meeting in Albany—Mr. John Van Buren—The Report of the Legal Commis. sionera— The Emigrant Bill, §c., Se. There was an immense meeting of Clay whigs at the capitol this evening ; the spacious vestibule of the capitol, which is capable of holding about three thousand persons, was closely packed in every part, and hundreds of warm hearted Clay whigs were unable to get standing room inside the hall. It was atremendous meeting, and it exhibited a spectacle of unanimity and enthu- siasm which I have not seen equa'led since the great Harrison campaign of 1840: the whole mass seemed to be moved by a spontancous feel- ing of reverence and devotion for the indomita- ble Harry of Kentucky, who (as John Van Buren said), when he gets on the Pennsy!vania avenue once more, with the big cracker on his whip, will lick out all his competitors. Every approach to the great hall of the capitol was, in fact, densely jammed; and the only regret which seemed to be felt, was that there was not suffi- cient standing room tor the thousands who had fathered there to celebrate the name and the fame ot the imperious and immortal Harry. The meeting was organized hy the appoint- ment of Tennis Van Vechten, Fiq., as Presi- dent, and about forty Vier ? ents and Se- cretaries.

Three thundering cheers were given for \" Greeley, and three more for the great embodiment. ‘ir. Greeley then pro- ceeded to address the meeting.

Who so worthy of the public gratitude for h meritorious puclic services, and who 80 capal of discharging the dificult and important daties of the executive cfilce? There was no man in the country, however distinguished his abilities, or however approved hie patriotiem, who, in this crisis, could command so wholly as Mr. Clay, the entire and unanimous support of the whig party. ‘There was no other man who could cali them into tha field, prepared to work with uaflinch- ing energy for the triumph of the just F we have asserted, and by which wo w The at of Mr. Clay 44, (said Mr. G,) complished by fraud. The Catholic citizens were duped {nto the belief that Mr. Clay was their enemy; but they had repented of their error, and they were now asking for a chance to retrieve the disastrous result which they had then contributed to produce. Upon this point Mr. Greeley dwelt with considerable force of argument. Mr, Greeley having concluded, Mr. 8. Van Renssacaen jounced that the com- mittee appointed to prepare and report rasolutions for the consideration of the meeting, had discharged that duty, and were now ready to make report. Mr. Me R. then read the following preamble and resolu- tions :— Whereas, the period is approaching w! of the United States will be required to exercise the highest fanction of aeverees power—the eleotion of the head of the nation ; and wherens it is desirable and pedient to seoure undivided action among the whigs of the Union, by proouring the nomination by the na- tional convention to be held at Philadelpbia, on ‘th of June next, of the best qualified and most available candidate for the high office of President— Resolved, By the democratic whigs of the city of Al , That concert of action inthe whig party canbe atiained by » frank and fearless interchange of ‘timents and opinion, in reference to the merits and claims of the distinguished individuals spoken of as candidates. Resolved, That the present exigency of our national affairs, both domestic and foreign, demands the services of an able and experienced statesman, whoee self sacri- ficing spirit and untiring energies have been ever devo- ted to the glory and prosperity of his country, and whose name and conceded patriotism may yet prove tower of strength to the nation, and an ark of safety to the Union, Resolved, That the people ofthe United States are em- phatically @ ation of practical business men, and that this national characteristic expiains the superiority of the mase of American freemen in every pursuit ef human industry, whether civil, naval, or militery. Resolved, therefore, That the candidate presented by the whig national convention should not only possess great mental endowments, but »n extensive knowledge and experience, as well in national affairs as in the bu siness pursuits of private life, united with marked firm ness of character and amenity of addrers. Resolved, as the opinion o/ the whigs of Albany, That Henry Clay, of Kentucky, posserses these high qualifica- tions in an eminent degree; that in bis past life we have a sure pledge for bis future condvet; that, livicg as he has done for his country, with the noblest ener- gies of his nature ardently aud uncessingly engaged in her behalf, ineeparably connected as he is with he- glory aud welfare, we deem him most worthy to becom: the chosen guardian of her constitution aod laws, and to oceupy the chair onoe filled by the immortal Wash- inzton end the illustrious Jefferson. Resolved, That the eminent and arduous exertions of Henry Clay, in behalf of the great cause of humen liberty throughout the world— his early and powerfu! advocacy of » public recognition of the independence o: Greece and of the South Ameriean Repu‘ lics—hir thrilling appeals to his coun'rymen in behalf of the starving people of unheppy Ireland, and the well known generosity and msgosnimity of bis nature, give him strong claims to the affection and gratitude of our fel low citizens who have fled from despotiam and want iv Earope, to liberty and plenty in America; and we have resson to believe that those claims will not be disregard- ed ia the coming content. Resolved. therefore, That for tl eminent servicer and distinguished qualifications, the whigs of the city of Albany do hereby recommend Henry Clay, of Ken- tucky, as their first choice of a candidate for President to be nominated by the mational convention soon to as; semble at Philadelphi: Resolved, That while Henry Cley is emphatically our choice for next President, as we believe he is that of a majority of the people of the Union, yet we are ready and wiliing to abide by the decision, and determined to support the candidate of the whig national convention aforesaid a ‘ After these resolutions were read, the meeting was successively addressed by Hon. Mitchell Sanford, of Cattskili; James biooks, of New ks, then appeared the people York ; sames K. Porte! at Thomas B Van buren, ot Albany; 4 5 a3, of Mon- roe; and C. C. Sev iaemoer of the Assembly, from Erie county. During the apeech of Mr. Sandford, vw bich wes eloquent and forcible, he alluded!» the corner stone of the Van Buren democracy -free soil, tree labor, free speech, and uncompromising hostility to the extension of slavery ; there were loud cries for the Wilmot proviso resolution, which it will be seen is not included in the above resolutions “Let’s have that resolution,” ‘* we want it, and we will have it,” was heard from every quarter of the hail. J.B. Van Buren, Esq., therefore, offered the following regolution : Resolved, That while we utterly disclaim any legal right to interfere with the institation of slavery where it now lawfully existe, we most earnestly deny the power of the federal government to establish or legaliz in apy territory of United States where i 0 existenso wien such territory wos acquired; and we iosist that all territory free when acquired, shall remain free forever. This resolution was received with extraordi- nary enthueiasm. The epeeches of Messrs. Van Buren and Bloss, and, indeed, of all the others, were very able and felicitous. When the above resolutions were put, they were carried with a deafening unanimity, every man present responding “aye,” at the top of his voice. , When the meeting adjourned, a procession was formed, which marched down State street, sing- ing some of the songs of the old campaigns. It was a stupenduous gathering, and there is a tide rising which wilt flood the country with spirit of irresistible enthusiasm. Mr. Joho Van Buren, before his departure for New York, was offered a puolic dinuer by « number of respectable citizens of Albany, of all shades in politics; he, however, declined the honor. Whether the political sentiments of Mr Van Buren are right or wrong, I canassert, with agreat deal of confidence, that a more accom- plished gentlemen does not live ; his manners are (rank, cordial, and unostentatious; his ad- dress winning, and his soul as broad andas deep as the Pacific ocean; there are thousands te wish him happiness. T transmit herewith the bill for the protection of emigrants arriving in the State of ‘New York. This bill was introduced into the Senate by Mr. Frost, and referred to the committee on com- merce and navigation, of which that Senator is amember. The committee reported in favor of ite paseage, and it was referred to the committee of the whole Senate, where it now remains. | understand from Mr. Fiost that the bill will be acted upon at an early day, and that it will not probably be altered from its present form; an additional section prohibiting the detention of emigrants as wit es, may however be intro- duced. It is the intention of the Senator.to call up the billto-morrow. | i There 18 a bill pending in the House to provide for the abolition of imprisonment for debt, and to limit imprisonment for fines in cases of va- gtancy, &c., &c. The following is the bill as it was passed to a third reading to-day :— Seotion 1. Whenever any person shali have been le- gelly fined any Jadge, magistrate, or other officer, he or she may, in sil cases wherein imprisonment is now, or sball be, provided by law, be imprisoned for the non- payment of such fine or fines, but each day he or sh shall remaia in custody, shail fully liquidate three dol- lara of the ponalty £0 impored. 42. This act eballtave effect immediately, itis highly probable that a special session of the Legislature will be called, on account of the report of the commissioners on practice and pleadings. There is a diversity of nion in regard to the necessity fora special w ssion, but the leading men in the Senate seei t, view it ar indispensable; I think it will be calles, if atall, in September. It should be remembered that the present report of the commissiopers com- prises only one thit of their labors, and that they will prepare a ubmit a second volumi- nous report to the Legislature of 1849. This code of procedure which hag just been submitted, may be adopted or rejected by the Legislature, or por- Lions of it may be adopted and other portions re- jected ; it would be idle to say that the whole will be adopted or the whole rejected ; but that a number of the ablest men in both houses are very hostile to some ot its provisions, I am per- feetly certain, and [ am convineed that the pro- cess of its examination and adoption or rejection by the Le vislature wili be very protracted. But this examination will not be unattended with interest. In the Senate I am happy to say we have some legal gentlemen of conceded ability, and the same, though in a jess degree, may be ssid of the house. There is little pete but the commissioners themselves will be called to the bar of the two houses, to elucidate and to vindi- cate their report. The Financial Movements of the European Bankers In Mexico. [Correspondence of the N. O. Times.) Mexico, Feb. 10, 1843.—Sinoe writing to you on the 8th instant, in relation to the monetary arrapgements entered into on the 7th instant, between the three dis- bureing officers of the army here, and Mr. Emilie Voss— the latter guarenteed by L. Davidson, the agent of the Rothschilds, in London—there has been quite am excite- ment amongst the English merchants here on the sub- Jeot, and very justly so. This mam Davidson has acted ‘towards our government in the most peeping spirit, as will appear from te following, viz: On the arrival of our troops in the villags of Tacubays, it wes agreed that the three disburring departments would take from the above Voss, and his partner, Hargous, some eighteen hundred thousand doilars,and for which they were to give drafts on the United States at par; instead of ta- King eighteen hundred thousand, they took nearly three millions, say up to the 7th instant. “Here | except Capt. Grayson, of the Commissariat Department, who reused and protested several times against such # pro- cedure, when he full well knew that he could get ten times more money than he wanted, at rates varying from 234 to 64 per cent on Vera 2 and'the United States, and he has been emphatically called by General Scott, ‘the war dog of the treasury.’ ’’ ‘This seid Davidson was, therefore, interested to near- ly the amount of three millio since its arrival befor % par, which at.a mod calculation of 5 per cent pre- mium, would give $150, in the short space of tive monthe to be divided between M Davidson, Har- gous, Voss, So, &9. A pretty nice to pocket out of what should properly belong to the revenue of the United States. This same Mr. Davidson, on the 19th iressed @ letter to th late then Assistant Quartermaster- which General, enclosing.) copies of lette he had just received from Mr. A. Bel in New York, for the Messrs. Rothschil passed and War Dep on the subject of furnishing money to the army in Mexi- co to the amount of $400,000, say for two months, each month $200,000. This proposal of Mr, Belment was made to Mr. Walker, to show the desire of the Messrs Rothechilds to serve the government of the United ‘States. tain Irwin very properly refused to accede to the propositions of Mr. Belmout, iaasmuck as dered it only ® conditional contract,and mo’ larly so, as it was not to interfere with the y: drawing drafts on the United States, whic bad been practising, acd found that he o much money by these means as ho wanted—ycs, times more. Well, Mr. D {thought fit to protest against the non-fu'filment of this Belmont contract. byt at the same time very modestly stating, that ia cons! deration of and the connection which he had in the previous money arrangements, so long as they were con- tinued, and that it would be for his interest, he would suspend the contract. But what does he do when he Star “Sealed proposels”—issued by the then disbursing officers of the department? He imme- diately writes # letter to Capt, A. C. Myers, Assistant Quartermaster, the successor of Coptain Irwin, and in- forms him that hs will now insist upon the faldiment of the Belmont contract, and does actually enforce tt, by reoviving the drafts of either Colonel Randal or Captain Myera for the sum of $400,000 at par, and this when it is actually known that he and those interested with him a millions, ,im my opinion, 96 just » source jue, as thet arising from any article of cus- These officers may pretend to sy that in of @ certainty, and to cuard agaiust any want of it was required by either of the three de- partmenis, it was the better plan—but it ie just a surd to entertain the idea of ity of maney in Mex- to think tha arve a man, by feeding Cape Mcer as ever stepped, has reit- the groundlessaces of such an Ido trust that my observations matter may be so used as to open tho eyes ef aving the power at Washington, to remedy this I ‘Were the individuals obtaining this privilege, men who had sacrificed anything for the interest of eur army, either personally, peountarily or politically, | would say that it was just that they should be compensated. But how does the case stand? Hargous was » bankrupt to all intents and puzposes, for he hed to get one hundred Louand doliars advanced him byCapt Irwin before our left Vera Crux; Voss the saice.only instead of having pundred thousand advanced to bim, he withhela ur iostalmentsof the Mexican indemalty. Davidson pockets his proportion of premiums, upon nearly three helf millions of dollars including the four hundred thousand lately advanced under the Belmont contract. If our government cancot sead out to Mexico some per- son to manage their affairs better than this, we had bet- ter retire to the defensive line of opsrations. 1 thiak there are thousands of pretty cute Yankees in cur coun try, who could play this brag game equally well with Mears.
