has kindly furnished US with Vera Cruz papers
containing thp only important information 70
be found In file 10 the 9Th Of August.
Tue election for President and Vice presi

interest.
The treaty Of peace, which, at our previous
accounts, had been negoi Iated between the con-
tending pa, ties in Central America, has been
rejected by the Salvadoreans, as appears by the
following extract rom the Guatemala Gazette.
watch we translate:
"Gualemala, June 3oM The representative
Of the Supreme Government, L. Manuel Fran
cisco Payon, has addressed 10 the General in
Chief OF tie army, under dale Of June 22d, the
following cummunicaiion:-"rhe government

tifying il; and after various answers, which
have shown 10 me the customary bad faith and
want Of frankness which they usually exhibit, |
have obtained from them decisive reply. In

clock this evening, withou, my doing any Thing
further OH the subject, concerning which am
going TO give an account 10 the supreme go
vernment."
1--WE are sure that orders have been given to
l.. Payon, to return to this capital"
When the report of the signing Of the treaty
reached US, we remarked thai if established,
peace would perhaps dlsappoint certain persons
in Colombia, who are interested in weakening
the regular Government. Gen. Marine, late
military leader of the Salvador, or revolutions
AIRY party, is Colombian, and friend Of Boil
var He has, however, fallen into the hands
Of his nemies. and is likely to suffer DEATH
