FOR THE wATcHMAN.
THE APPROACHING ELECTION.

1iG hTThohNIllN1 LLES lION.
The fede,a party, believing that Mr. M'Lanss
popularity is diminishing in this State are resort
ing to every means they can devise to blind the pub
lie with regard to this fact but their extreme soil
citudr, and The means they hide il, only makes
II more papable. They are endeavorlng to divide
the democratic party BY introducing the next presi
denlial electlon-somc asserting that Mr.. M Lane
is pledged to support one candidate, and some ano.
her. as it may suit their purpose subject which
should have no bearing on the present election VIZ
want men to represent US Ill Congress. who are
honest independent men-pledged 10 no presldentiai
candidate, nor to the present administration but,
Tisefy Judging 1t by its measures" will support
II when right, and oppose it only when wrong;
men who will 10, ,rampe on, but support, The
Constitution.
With regard to Mr.. M'Lane, i, is the opin
ion OF very consider able portion Of tie people Of
this State, that the famous resolution he brought
forward, in the House OF Re representatives., last winter,
when the Bill for sppropriating money TO defray HE
expenses of the mission to Panama was before the
House, would have infrngcd on, or broken down,
one o the sacred barriers OF the Consli' ulon if il
had been adopted inasmuoh as it had tor its object
The instructng OF the President relative TO the negc
tialions at Panama--a right which the Constitution
never intended the House Of Representatives 10 have
or exercise; as the treaty making power rests with
the President and Senate, and the House Of Represen
tatves has constitutional right TO interfere further
than by Withholding pecunsry aid in making or
carrying treaties into effect. Delawsrians will you
lend your aid to The man who would rampe on the
Constitution; that sacred charter of your rights and
liberties WIN you be gulled into indocnce by your
opponents until the time OF action is past No!-you
are too hones-too independent republicans for that,
The enemy is on the alert, singing the syrcp song
of no party, sc, TO lull you into inaclion. Beware
he is secretly, well as openly, a, work. Come
cut democratic republicans, 10 the polls, on the
FIRST Tuesday of October next-the day that un-
sound politicians will be denounced by the voice Of
the people. AN ELEcTon OF N. G. COUNTY.

From Noah's Ne,U I-ork Enquirer.

Presidential Election. tocsiD has been
sounded From every quarter of the UhioD, the
busy note Of preparation is heard Only two can
didates have YET, been publicly and formally an
nounced-Mr. Adams and Gen. Jackson, Others
are probably in the back ground. 1t strikes Us that
the war is rather premature. A Presidential cleo
ton is great dis.urber Of the national quiet. Let
US have peace long as we can. A short war may
be carried on with more vigour than long ONE
When the proper time comes, we shall shoulder our
mnsket and rally round the republican Standard
We ready for the battle, but have no inclination
to fatigue ourselves with the skirmish.

Treaty, concu uded between the Governments OF
France and Brazil, has been recently published in
this country. II is said be literal transcript Of
that which was concluded few months previously.
at Rio de Janeiro between the Governments ol Bra
z and Great B'ltsin, which, though signed by its
authorized Plenipoentiary. the British Government
refused TO ratity This refusal undoubtedly, a
right OF he BRITISH Government but we we're igno
ant Of the reasons for thing SO unusual. II late
'eports from Rio Janero TO be relied upon, the
mystery is cleared away at once: for i, is said the
British Government, has engaged 10 protect the Re
public Of Buenos Ayres and TO do it the more eff
GENTLY, is to take The Banda Oriental into its keep
ing The treaty concluded by the British Envoy
virtually recognized the same Banda Oriental as
part Of the Kingdom Of Brazil, he being ignorant Of
the arrangement with Buenos Ayres, and we thus
very clearly see why the British Government could
not raisy the treaty which its Minister had formed
There is something very curious in this piece Of
diplomacy, suPposing il to be true. II is singular
eoough that Great Britain should chuse to encum
ber herself with the protection OF another State, and
still more that South American Republic should
engage in a war for Territory which, before the
war is we'll begun, she places under the protection
Of an European Monarch We do not see, il this
be so, that the Montevideans have gained much in
changing theil condition OF Spanish Colonies for
that Of British Protegees.
1t is hardly worth while however, TO speculate on
the subject, whilst the facts ave yet uncertain.
