America TO enter into this compact Of perpe..
ual union, league, and confederation.
Art. u. AS soon as this important purpose
shall have been attained, general Congress of
the American States shall assemble, composed
Of their Plenipotentiares. Its object will be to
confirm and establish intimate relations between
the whole and each one of he States: it will
serve as council on great occasions; point
OF union in common danger; a faithful interpre-
ter OF public treaties in cases of misunderstood
ing; and as an arbitrator and conciliator o: dis.
putes and differences.
Art. Is. The Isthmus of Panama being an
integral part Of Colombia, and the most suita-
bic point Tor the meeting Of the Congress, this
Republic promises to furnish 10 Penipotentia-
ries OF the Congress all the facilities demanded
by hospitality among kindred people, and by
the sacred character Of ambassadors.
Art. l6 Mexico agrees to the same obliga-
ton, if ever, by the accidents Of war, or the
consent Of a majority of the States, the Con-
gress should meet within her Jurisdiction.
Art. II. This compact of perpetual union,
league, and confederation, shall not, in anywise.
affect the exercise Of the national sovereignty Of
either contracting party, in regard to its laws *
form of government, or its foreign relations
But the parties bind themselves, positively, not
to accede to any demand of indemnify, tribute,
or impost from Spain, for the loss Of her form
er supremacy over these countries, or from any
other nation in her name. They also agree no,
to enter into any treaty with Spain, or any other
nation, to the prejudice Of their Independence;
but TO maintain, at all times, their mutual in
terests, with the dignity and energy proper to
free, Independent, friendly, and confederate
states.

ton Of this treaty;
The foregoing treaty has been duly ratified,

"By the treaty, therefore, importations of
the above mentioned articles are benefited q
per cent. and by theTannexed memorandum you
will obverve that the port charges on Ameri-

Their reasons for this short postponemen than are con-
tanned in the above The MANAGER would, howev-
er, beg leg leave to add, that when this class was is
sued few persons if any, anticipated in the least, the
late panic in the money market which has almost para
yzcd every kind of business and has caused such sim
gular and unprecedented stagnation in trade. The
distress of capitalists and moned institutions has not
been confined to any single state in confedcracy,
but it has been severely felt from extremity of the
country to the other and has been general in several of
the oldest and wealthest foreign countries. And it
will not be considered matter of surprise, that the
same causes which have induced recently the post
ponenent the drawing OF important lottery, should
have similar effect ofmuch greater magnitude.
But is hoped, that happy change tor these
has already mmeDced, and that all classes of our cit
zens in every part of the Union will soon participate in
the returning tide of prosperity. The scheme now Of
red by far the most attractive and splendid OF any
ever presented to the public in the United States and
manv very many who adventure therein will certainly
be rewarded with prncely fortunes or handsome add-
tons to what they already possess.
Those who have not ycttaKsn an interest III inns LOT

and they respectfully remnc Cd. that by promptly
purchasing chances in this most endd scheme, they
will insure an early distribution OF the rich prizes
tainsas the lottery shall positively be drawn soon

therefore are invited forward and take ticket
