MIR. Knight of Rhode Island, member
of the U. S. Senate, in letter 10 bis constit-
uehts, says:
CATER Mr.. M'Lane had entered into the
arrangement, and he saw the use the British
Government intended to make of it for the
benefit Of her navigation, and before he left
London, he demonstrated against their pro-
ceedings-but it was too late to complain; he
had made the bargain, and the U. States
must stand by it. This remonstrance was
made on the thirtieth OF November, 1880, s.
was never communicated to Congress. or
made known TO the people OF the U. States,
until it was drawn from the secret files of the
Government on the 4tb day at April last, by
r al ,.nfa oil t,tSla
from the date of the arrangement up TO the
day this paper saw the light, the papers, of
fcers, and partisans of General Jackson, were
shouting praises to this arrangement, and no
sannas to the President and his Minister for
making it. And, at the same time, the Pre-
sident, by his Minister, was protesting "a
gamst the use and advantages the British
Government were deriving fromt."
principal New Jersey Jackson editor
asserts, as of his own knowledge, that the
state of New York viii give large majority
TO the jackson and Van Buren, ticke. The
Washington Globe and the New York r
vening Post affirm that there will bea deci
ded Jackson majority in the Legislature of
Pennsylvania. As nioTmants for the public,
these oracles resemble the worthy John Of
Antioch, who published an universal history,
in which he relates that Cicero and Saalust
were the most illustrious Of the Roman Poets
that Julius Caesar murdered Pompey in Egypt
with his own hand; that Britain was city
built by Claudius Cesar on the borders of
the ocean; and many other facts of the kind.
The jackson soothsayers vie successfully
with accurate John.-.Ndt. Ga>. !

Il of bis conduct even more striking, with an
other of them, 1t was one OF the prominent

4 political adversaries. that he evinced dis
a position TO give to the Chief Executive Office
loo high tone, and to stretch its privileges
beyond their just and constitutional limits

Il "GentIemen Of the Senate:

vention with France, under cettain condl
lions, Although il would have been more
coniormable to my own judgment and incl
nations to have agreed to that instrument
Internationally, yet in this point | find had
Me misfortune TO differ from so high con-

more consistent with the honor and inter

Condition prescribed, than not at ALL" Sc.
