From tho baltimore Patriot Of July 10.
Tur UNITED STATES AND GREAT
BRITAIN.

Mr.. Fairfield, from the Commute on
Foreign Affairs, to which was recon-
mitted the bill of this House, !" to pro.
vide for surveying the Northeastern
boundary line Of the United States
according to the provision Of the trea-
~ of peace Of 1763," reported the
same without amendment and II was
ordered, on his motion, that the bill DO
lie on the table.
The same gentleman, from the same
committee, further reported The follow
ing resolutions:
Resolved, that after careful exam
nation and deliberate consideration o.
the whole controversy between The
United States and Great Britain, rela-
tive TO the Northeastern boundary d
the former, the House Of representa-
tives does not entertain doubt OF the
entire practicabillty Of running and
marking that boundary in strict conlor'
nifty with the stipulatlons OF the delini'
tive treaty ofpeace Of 1888; and en-
terrain perfect conviction OF the JUS.
,ice and validity of the title OF the Unl-
ted States, 10 the full extent of all the
territory in dispute between the two
Powers.
RESOLVED further, That, considering
that more than half a century has clap
sed since the conclusion Of that treaty
considering the extraordinary delay
which has hitherto marked the negoti-
atoms and proceedings OF the Govern
ments Of the two countries, In their en-
deavor amicably to settle this coniro.
versy and considering the danger Of
mutual irritation and collisions upon
the border of kindred and friendly ma
tons from further procras,lnaton, this
House cannot forbear 10 express an
earnest desire that the pending negoti-
alton should be brought to close, and
the final decision Of the dispute be made
as early as practicable.
These resolutions were unanimous
ly agreed to.

The UNITED STATES AND MEXICO.
MIR. HOWARD, from the Commute on
| Foreign Relations, made report on
| Saturday last in the House OF Repre-
sentatves, upon the the message OF the
President of the United States at the
commencement OF the session, and the
several subsequent Messages on the
subject of our relation with Mexico
1t is due to the gravity of the subject
that this report, with minority report
by Mr.. CUSHING, one of the members
of the committee should be pulished IN
this paper, at large, as early as practl
cal; and this shall be done. Meanwhile
we are enabled to state, from hasty
look at the report, that the committee
incline to consider the conduct Of the
Mexican Government to have been less
direct, in reference To the proposed me-
diation, than is consistent with fairness
of purpose, but do not consider any le-
gisative action necessary on the SUBJ
ject at the present moment, and there
fore refrain from recommending any.
Mr.. CUSHING is of opinion that the
offer, by MEXICO to submit to arbltra-
ton has been made in good faith, and
with honest intent, but at the same time
if it should appear otherwise, he would
be as prompt as any other member to
resent different purpose on the part OF
MEXICO, should such purpose be made
evident.

NJ We ask the attention Of our readers to the article
which we give below from the Nem Era. This paper,
published ia the city Of New York, is acknowledged
organ Of the Sub Treasury friends Of the administrations
aud has unwittingly (perhaps desgnedy) given view
of "uLerior Objects" The editors say, haf bill fthe
Sub Tressuryl mast pass; ALL THE BANKS
MUST NECESSARILY FAIL" &c.-and again
They must aud all the people, without exception Of
classes, will say that they shaH go down"
We have always contendcd that the Sub Treasury
masf operate innriousy upon State institutions, per-
haps destroy them. Some Of its advocates, however,
have denied the truth Of position and have sus-
tanned it sau,ary measure; While others
yersant with the designs Of the leading few, openly
that the Sub'freasury is SUSTAINED by them ac,h
expectation that a. must destroy ie Stdfe Banks,
result which they most clearly desire. The New Era,
suppose, speaks by authority" and Of course de-
serves TO be read carefully
