Wasnineron, July 5, 1843. The Ratified Tyecty—The Senate. Dr. Reyburn, of New Orleans, who- went out to Mexico with Mr. Sevier, as medical altache, ar- rived in this city last evening, beamng with him the ratified treaty, and a sum of money amounting to between twelve and thirteen millions of dollars. Dr. Reyburn parted with Mr. Sevier at New Or- leans, the latter proceeding up the river, towards his home, in Arkansas.’ He isexpected to arrive here ina few days. Dr. Reybum describes the Mexicans as impressed with the belief, that if the war should ever be renewed, this country would anevitably swallow up the whole of theirs. The commissioners were received and treated, not with cordiality, but with great respect. A sump- tuous residence was assigned them at Queretaro, and they were furnished witl: servants and every luxury they could desire. Indeed, one of the oppo- f:tvon payers i thet city, accused their entertain- ere of supplying them with certain luxunes forbid- @n in the code ot good morals—but the Doctor declares this was pure slander, A cabinet council held to-day, and it was Teeelved to lay the treaty before the ate forth- with, li will be accompanied by a message from the President, conzratulating the country in mag- mloquent terms on the return of peace; and imme- otely aiter the action of the Senate, there willbe issued a proclamation of peace between the two countries. May it be lasting—not with ‘Mexico alone, but with the world. But of this there can be no certainty, while the precarious re- lations between Spain and England render the oc- cupation of Cuba by the latter a matter of possi- ble oceurrence. Doctor Reyburn speaks in very encomiastic terms of the appearance of the Mexican Congress. He deseribes most of its members as men ot most fave aspect end dignified deportment. Whata commentary on the speech of Mr. Senator Man- gum on Monday last!" _ gentleman indulged am an unmeaeured quantity of vituperation against the press—the usual butt of those who, for partie- ular reasons, wish to crush public opinion. He remarked, very-unhappily, that if any man escaped he attacks ofthe press, itis not by reason of his virtue, but of his insignificance. lt would be but fair to argue that, as Mr. Manguin has been uni- formly treated with great forbearance by the press, according to his own reasoning, his impunity is attributable not to any sublimity of virtue that he seesses, but to the fact that he is too contemptible jor notice. The deduction is from his own argu- ment, not mine. Indeed, any one desiring to re- spect Mr. Mangum, could not fail to regect his ve humiliating exhibition on Monday last. His speec! not only abounded in the slang of the stump, but was illustrated and diversified by gesticulations and mountebankism which would have been laugh- able in a clown, but ina Senator were. painful to witness. But what was in the worst possible taste, was his most undignified abuse of the Mexicans— calling them, after the manner, and in the ve age of Mr. Polk’s organ, “a debased people.” ‘This stupid and brutal abuse was indulged in by the President's organ when we were at war wit Mexico, so that that donmnal is by no means so re- prehensible as Mr. Mangum, who re-echoes this abuse atatime when we are at peace with that nation, and therefore bound to treat her at least with decency. And yet, Mr. Mangum is one of the sticklers for the dignity of the Senate. GALVIENSIS, Wasnineton, July 5, 1848. The Wilmot Proviso ithe Senate—No Adjourn ment yet. After several hours spent between Mr. Clayton and Mr. Foote to-day, in the Senate, in the discus- mon of the principles of Gen. Taylor versus Gen. Cass, there was a considerable deal -of voting on the question of fixing a day of adjournment. ‘The whigs are anxious to adjourn; the Cass demo- crate desire first to take the wind out of the sails of Mr. Van Buren and the barnburners, by settling the slavery question on the several territorial bills of Oregon, California and New Mexico, wkich they Propose to do by running the Missouri compromise straight through to the surges of the Pacific; and which is the only way to do it. iv Messrs.

Mr. CLayrox appealed from the decision. Mr. Bernien and Mr. Cannoun, notwithstanding the wide range ot debate pursued on this qu were not willing at this 6 to cut off the Senato: from Delaware from a participation in it. Mr. Foote, who originated this debate upon the party politics of the day, justified himsvif upon precedent’, and was anxious to have it go ou without interruption, Mr. Hamuts sustained the decision of the chair, Mr. Crarrox, by request of Mr. Mangum, withdrew his appeal, with a view of a vote upon the resolution Moved that Mr. Clayton Le permitted to proceed.

The appeal had its effect ; for, on a mouon to lay the resolution on the table, it was Jaid there by a vote of 26 to 22—Messrs, Niles, Hamlin, Hale, Dix and Allen, voting with the whigs. These are all proviso men, except Mr. Allen, who having taken such a bold stand in the ‘outset for anearly adjournment, was compelled to carry it through, notwithstanding the discovery of the object of the whigs, which is nothing more nor «Jess than to adjourn, and leave this proviso unset- tled_until after the presidential election ; because you know the settlement of the question, by re- moving the last prop of the barnburners, might re- sult in their cohesion with the hunkers. Not very likely—but it might so happen. There is a prospect now, sinee the arrival of the treaty, which brings in the California and New Mexico questions, that we shall keep the session in full blast till the first of September. Tus Doctor. Baurimonr:, July 5, 1848. The Fourth of July in Baltimore—The Taylorites— Theatricals, §c. Never, “within the recollection of the oldest in- habitant,” was the anniversary of our National Independence celebrated with more patriotic ardor than was evinced by our good citizens yesterday. Nine of our volunteer companies went on a pilgri- mage to Washington, eccompanied by about three thousand of our male population, and about one dozen steamboats were out, crowded with passen- gers, notwithstanding which, the streets were filled with pedestrians the omnibuses were crowded, and the woods surrounding the city, ed with old and young, grave and guy, all en- ie Gieteatival to thet’ jearts? soujeah’ A tae ‘as | have been able to ascertain, the day passed off without incident or accident of any kind to mar the eral enjoyment; and there were very few domkan men observed perambulating the streets, as is 80 often the case towards the close of the day. Great is the joy among the Taylor whigs at the card just put forth by the whigs of New Orleans. They threw up their hats for Taylor higher than ever, and are beginning to captivate the Clay whigs. Taylor now only needs Clay’s endorsement to make him much more palatable than he has been, notwithstanding his inconsistency in changing his position before the people. Murdoch is ont tolerable houses at the Front street theatre. He appeared, last night, as Pierre. Jack Dunn is also performing at the same house. The Wax Statuary of the Last Supper, the Cru- cifixion, and the Trial of Christ, are exhibiting at the Washington Hall, but have been very unsuc- ceesful, They are well worth seeing, but no one seems to care ubout seeing them. ah The military and visiters are coming in from ‘Washington, this morning, in great numbers.— ‘They all express themselves as highly delighted with the enjoyment of the day.

The Fourth of July ¢xcursionists h all re- tumed to the city, and seem to have enjoyed them- selves beyond all precedent.

Upon this uestion and upon the question of the tariff, ana upoa all the great questious of the day, the Allison letter of Gen, Taylorzeufficiently expressed his opinions to the American people, Though he was the whig candidate, whige, democrats, and men of all parties, could rally upon him without the humiliation of sacrificing their principles, for General ‘faylor was a republican, aud would not be the President of a party, but t dent of the nation. Such was the position « ylor, and the ‘Tayior party, before the country. Mr. Clayton considered the democratic party dis. ended. Mr. Van (Buren had touched it with a long suspended blow of retaliation for the wrongs done to him, and it has fallen to pieces. Mr. Clayton next proceeded to review the remarks of Mr. Foote, in regard | to the several letters of Gen. Taylor, their bad gram- mar, ke. Mr. Foors explained what he had said. that Gen. Taylor never could have written all thove letters which have goue out over his namo; and not one of his friends here could get up and say that he believed that Gen. Taylor did write all of those letters, Mr. Crayton resunied. fie believed in wisdom and capacity, the honesty and integrity of General Taylor. The difference between him and Gen. Cass Ge He had said Cars is a learned man, a man of knowledge: while Gen. Taylor isa wire man. The difference be- tween Gen. Taylor and Mr. Van Buren is, that the on ine wise man, and the other a cunning man; anda eunning man never can be a wise man, Mr. Clayton discussed the bank qucetion nm obsolete idea; anda MANY cross quertions passed between Mr. C. on the one part and Wr. Foote and Mr. Broese on the other, imreference tothe probable course of General Cass versus General Taylor, on harbors and rivers; the re- sult of which was that Mr. Clayton believed no inter- nal improvement bill would be likely to pass Congress which Gen. Taylor would not sign, while Mr. Breese, in behalf of Gen. Cass, belivved that he would sign eush s river and harbor bill ss those vetoed by Presi- dent Polk. Mr. Foote was not prepared to answer the exact extent to which Gen. Cass would go; but believed he would sign any bill not contemplating a wild and reekless system of internal improvement. Mr. Clayton was afraid that the noise and confusion at Cleveland would keep the exact opinions of Gen. Cass in mysti- fication during the canvass, with one construction at the North, and another at the South Mr. Foorr: desired to know the opinions of General Taylor on the war; whether he believed our own coun- try or Mexicoin the right, snd whether he was in favor of territorial indemn y acquired by treaty Mr. Crayrox was not authorized to «peak for Gene- ral Taylor ; nor were those by-gone questions of any importance in this contest. ‘They were settled. He believed, however, that General ‘Tay! going to wer for ake of the seq! ry. The learnrd Seustor next descanted on the policy of party platforms.

With a most fiery and indignant | denun n of the plan adopted by the whigs for this campaign, involving the non-committalisin of their candidate on the great questions of the day, Mr. Foote coneluded by protesting that the senator from Dela- wore had left vsas much in the dark as before. In the ouiset of his speech, Mr, Foote read the law cited egainst Gen. Cass, Inying great stress and emphasis upon the several crimes enumerated; but when he cume to apply the ten stripes to “nuch as neglect their calling and employment, misepend what they earn, and | do not provide for themselves OF their families,” the old Mr. Foorr—Such al whigs, and many democrats, laughed right out.

Mr. Foorr:. after relating an ancedote of an old judge in Mississippi, who claimed to know all the law in the world, agreed to take the word of the Senator for the fact. Mr. Hare thought it was wrong to press such hard | questions upon the friends of General Cass in his ab- | sence. Mr. Foorr—To be sure, the Senator is a candidate himself for the Presidency.

Mr. Green opposed the amendment; the members who live afar off, should be compensated for the sacri- fices which they make in coming here. that ew DEMAGoaUIEM. Mr. Rurtt moved to amend the amendment, that members may be paid for travelling by the farthest route. He expressed the hope that the subject of mileage would cease to be a theme for demagognism. Mr. Vevante said that if a member was not worth eight dollars a day, he was worth nothing. Mr. Hewiy remarked that it was not demagoguism to make a law which will be equal. He could point out 8 member who receives $500 mileage, and another, who lives but forty miles from him, receives $11,000. He could show that a man lives @ thousand miles from the capital, and travels five hundred miles off; then travels fifteen hundred miles, for which he receives $2,000; while a man who lives farther off, does not get huif as muchwoney, Ut ts demagoguism to denounce equality.

He said thet he thought no member of th {ouse would object to the bill. It was maturely considered by the Committee on Revolutionary Pen- sions, who propore further provisions. The extension is this: we have never granted B ggeneoe to the widows and orphans of those who died of disease connected with the rerviee of the regular army This bill places the widows and orphans of officers, non-commissionod oficers, musieians wnd privates of the army,on the rame footing with the volunteers. Heretofore there has been no provision for soldiers killed in battle, ‘This bill limits the pension system to those in the ser- vice; they who remained here do not come under the bill.” The widows or orphans of those who died on the borders of Mexico, or were killed in battle, or who died of wounds reewived, are entitled to the pension.
