This | <oune was only determined upon by him yesterday, after full conference with his friends. I of course referred to Mr. Lix, who has been offered the Treasury Depart- ment. It is now said that Mr. Dix will be offered the -Btate Department, as that was the understanding in case Mr. Hunter declined. There is no general feeling among “Southern men here against Mr. Dix, some of them having since expressed themselves a3 perfectly satisfied if he should be appointed to a position in the cabinet. The vole to remove the injunction of secreay was not sa party one; it was oppoved mainly on tho ground that the ditcus:ion would be a waste of tine.

IN RXECUTIVE RESSION, The following mossage was received from the President, and referred to the Committee on Foreign Relations:— To the Senate of the United States— T herewith transmit to the Senate, for their advice with regard to its ratification, a convention between the United States and Great Britain, concluded at Washing- ton, on the 19th ins John M. Clayton, Secretary of Stale, on tho part of the United States, and by tho Tight Hon. Sir Henry Lytton Bulwer, on the part of Groat Bri- tain. This treaty has been negotiated in accordance with the general views expressed in my message to Congress in December last. Its object is to establish a commercial intercourse with all maritime States, for the protection of 8 contemplated ship-canal through tho territory of Nica- Tagua, to connect the Atlantic and Pacific ocvans, and at the same timo to insure the same protec: tion to the contemplated railways or canals by the ‘Tehuantepec and Panama routes, a4 well as to every othor inter-oceanic communication which may be adopted to shorten the transit to or from our territories on the Pa- cific. It will be seen that this treaty does not propose to take money from the treasury to olfect any object con. templated by it. It yields protection to the capitalists who may undertake to construct any canal or railway across the Isthmus, commencing in the southern part of Mexico, and terminating in the territory of New Granada, It gives no preference to any one route over another, but Prone the same measure of protection for all, whic! ingenuity and enterprise can construct. Should thi treaty be ratified, it will secure, in future, the liberation of all Central America from any kind of ‘foreign aggros- sion. At the time negotiations were opened with Nicara- Bua, for the construction of a canal through her torritory, I found Great Britain in possession of nearly half of Cen- tral America, as the ally and protector of the Mosquito King. It hax been my object, in negotiating this treaty, not only to secure the passage across the Isthmus to the government and citizens of the United States, by the consruction of a great highway, dedicated to the uses of all nations, on equal terms, but to maintain the independence and sovercignty of all the Central American republics. ‘The Senate will {udge how far these objects hnve been effected. If there any who would desire to seize and annex any portion of the territories of these weak sister republics to the American Union, or to extend our dominion over them, I do not concur in their policy; and I wish it to be under- stood, in reference to that subject, that I adopt the views entertained, so far as I know, by all my predecessors. The principles by which I have been regulated in the no- gotiation of this treaty, are in accordance with the senti- ments well expressed by my predecessor, on the 10th of February,.1847, when he communicated to the Senate tho treaty with New Granada for the protection of tho rail- road at Panama. It is in accordance with the whole spi- rit of the resolution of the Senate of the 3d Maroh, 1 referred to by President Polk, and with the policy adopted by Presideut Jackson immediately after the passage of that resolution, who despatched an agent to Central Amo- Tica and New Granada, to open negotiations with those governments for the purpose of effectually protecting, by suitable treaty stipulations with them, such indi- vidual or companies as might undertake to open a communication between the Atlantic and Pacifie oceans, hy the construction of a ship canal across tho isthmus which connects North and South Amorica, and of securing forever, by such atipulations, the free and equal right of navigating such canal, to all nations, on the payment of such reasonable tolls as might bo established to compensate the capitalists who should engage in such undertaking and completo the work. I also communicate herewith a copy of the correspondence between the Amer- ican Secretary of State and the British Plenipotentiary, at the time of concluding the treaty. Whatever honor may be due to the party first proposing such a treaty, justly belongs to the United States. My predecessor, in his mes- sage, the 10th of February, 1849, referring to the treaty with New Gronada, for the protection of the Panama Rail- road, observed, that should the proposition be rejected, we may deprive the United States of the just influence which its acceptance might secure to them, and confer the glory and benefite of being first among the nations in concluding such an arrangement upon the government, either of Great Britain or France. ‘That either of thexe [Yasue pada uber embrace the offer, cannot well be ubted, because there doex not appear to be any other effectual means of securing to all nations the advantage of this important passage, but the guaranty of great com- mereial powers that the Isthmus shall be neutral terri- tory. The interests of the world at stake, are so im- portant that the security of this passage between the two Oceans cannot be knffered to dcpeud upon the wars Aud revelutivils Which May arise among different nations. He suggests that the treaty with the government of Nicara- gua be amended ro as to conform with this one, and then says, I have good reason to believe that France and Rus- sia stand ready to accede to this treaty, and that no other great maritime State will refuse its accession to an ar- rangement £0 well calculated to diffuse the blessings of pence, commerce and civilization, and so honorable to all nations which may enter into the engagement. (Sign Z. TAYLOR. Wastinaron, April 22, 1860. Mr. Clayton, writing to Sir Henry Bulwer, April 19, 1850, submits to him the treaty in (he shape he desired to have it, and says, he presumes, trom the nature of Mr. Bulwer’s instructions, he is prepared {o sign it, He in- forms Mr. Bulwer that, in September, 1849, when no hope of this treaty was entertained, a treaty was made with the government of Nicaragua, which ix before the Senate for its approval. He says the treaty ix now before the Senate, who aie the President's advisers in the matter. He docs not think the Pre ident will controvert anything the Scnate shall do in the matter. He has no doubt the Senate will make the treaty with the Nicaraguan government consivtent in terms with this, Ho re- Joices in the happy results to flow from the treaty, sc. Sir H. Bulwer replies to Mr. Clayton undor date of April 19th, acknoyledging the receipt of the draft of the treaty 4s prepared by Mr. Clayton for signature. Ho calls atton- tion to some unimportant deviations in it from the origi- nal text of the project submitted to Lord Palmorston for his approval; but ax itis important that, in the present situation of the affair, no further time should bo lot in the conclusion of it; und as the alterations have been adopted by beth conjointly, for various reasons which have appeared expedien( for the furtherance of the ob- jects witch the treaty apecifies, he was prepared to sign it.

The House, without taking action on the Gardiner ease, went into Committee of the Whole on the State of the Union, on the bill to suppress the circulation of notes under five dollars, as a currency, in the District of Colum- bia. The first section having been read, Mr. Carrrsr, (dem.,) of Ohio, moved an amendment, making the act apply to all bank paper. Ho said he offered it for the purpose of testing whether the commi tee will authorize the issuing of bank paper in this di: trict, of any denomination. This amendment would leave the bill with its penalties against issuing any bank paper whatever. If there is a town in this republic which re- guires none of the agencies of bank: paper, it is Washing: ton—there being little of trade and commerce here. Thi business of making a name to it, and draw! interest on it as money, is ® fraud on sense that ought to be ended, and pestinuleet at this point. He hoped Congress would not, yy Implication, authorize any such humbug. Mr. Everxrr, (dem.) of Va., while ho "agreed with the remarks of the ging was Specuel to the amend- ment. Maryland and Pennsylvania had led the way in banishing small notes, and Virginia had moved in that di- rection. Let Congress do likewise, and pasa the bill as it is, and send it to tht Senate without clogging it with amendments, Mr. Howm, (whiz) of Md.,. briefly showed the evils which his constituents, adjoining this district, uufter in consequence of the floods of shinplasters manufactured in and circulated from this city. Bir. Jonrs, (dem.) of Tenn., inquired whether there is any law now in force here authorizing or regulating papor currency ? Mr. Bowze replied he thought not, and that since the expiration of the charters of the district banks, the com- panies have acted as private associations. Mr. Carrnux further opposed shinplasters. Several other gentlemen submitted a few remarks to the committee, which rose without coming to a con- clusion, and the House adjourned. ie and putting a cashier's Affairs in Albany. LEGISLA1 “© BUSINESS—ASSEMBLYMEN PERMITTED TO BRING OUTSIDERS WITHIN THE BAR—THE COM- MITTEKS, ETC. SPECIAL CORRESPONDENCE OF THR NEW YORK HERALD. Aipany, Jan. 11, 1853. Quite a spirited debate came off in the Senate to-day, with regard to Mr. Cooley’s acnal resolutions, of which your reporters will of course have given a full account in the regular proceedings. Appearances now indicate a final settlement of the whole canal question; at least so far ag the Senate is concerned. As yet it is impossible to say positively what the House will do, though it ix probable that a mfjority of its members will follow the lead of tho Senate. In the Assembly the greater part of the day was con- sumed in revising the rules. Among the amendments submitted by Mr. Loomis, from the committee, was one giving the sole power to the Speaker to invite porsons within the bar. ‘ Mr. Henry Shaw strongly advocated it. He said he did not wish to be bored with any of his constituents. He wanted them to keep without the bar, and not annoy him inside. Mr. O'Keefe replied by stating that he bad no fears of meeting with his constituents. He was one of the people before the election, remained so still, notwithstanding that he cecupied a seat on the floor of the House, Mr. O’Keefe’s articulation and occasional flashes of wit and humor, strongly assimulate to that of John Van Buren. ‘The question, after an hour's debate, was tukea, and a substitute was carried, allowing members to bring as many of their friends inside the bar, and to oceu many seats, as thoy please. This wax a judicious decision, ag the importance of having the lobby in constant use will be found indispensable. The committees selected by the Speaker appear to give satisfaction, as predicted inthe Herat. Mr. Loomis ix Placed at the head of Ways and Means—a position, when taking into consideration the embarrassed state ‘of tho treasuay, which will require all his financial ability. Mr. Tayler, competitor for the Speakership, is avsigned a very honorable and k:.borious position,as Chairman of Cominorce and Navigation.
