To quiet the apprehensions, oven of
the most timid, in every portion of the
State, we are authorized TO say, that
every preparation has been madeS from
a spear to broad-swold, from a flint to
Pnien, repeating carbine, to concen-
trate upon any, the most distant point in
the state, large aud efficient force of
mounted men and infantry the latter to
be provided, at n moments warning, with
ample means of quick transportation.
The Major General commanding is fully
alive to the present state of things and
as he has taken the responsibility Of, so
he means TO take all necessary and proper
measures for, the protection Of every por-
ton of the State. The disturbers of The
public peace need not flatter themselves
that the withdrawal of the troops will en-
able them TO work their own wild plea
sure, as they have hitherto done, upon
our well affected citizens but that the
most summary justice will be done upon
all those who may manifest by any acts,
a disposition TO renew their late wicked
and reasonable attempt. 1t should new
er be forgotten, that there may be cir
cumstances, in ,chich JorJearance ~iH
cease 10 be piriue.

From the Now-lork American Of Tuesday evening,
Treaty with Great Britain
concluded!

| A highly important report, and which we
have reason to think well founded, reached
the city this morning from Washington. IL
is, substantially, that Mr.. Webster and Lord
Ashburton has finally agreed upon all Tie
points in discussion between the two coun-
tries, and that treaty wrs drawn up aud
ready for signature, and would be signed yes
tcrday, being the 4lh day Of July.
The North Eastern Boundary is settled by
ceding to Great Britain the terrilory north OF
the ST. Johns, aud by Great Britain ccdmg
to the United States the strip between our
present Eastern boundary aud The ST. Johns
river, including the city Of Fredericton
now the seat of Government Of the British
province Of New Brunswick-nnd Of course
the navigation of The river to the sea.
20 this arrangement New Brunswick was
very avcrsc, but higher considerations have
prevailed, and settlement Mat must be
deemed by the United States honorable and
satisfactory ina high degree, has been el'
fccted.
/ As to the details o. other points we are
without information.

FOURTH OF JULY.

The return of our Nations Indcpcn-

lutes from the Artillery Company, and
Rcyenue-Cutter Jackson at sunrise,
noon and sunsct-the ringing Of all the
bells in town from II TO ! p. m.-tho
display Of the National Flag, SC. In
.no afternoon, at , o'clock, all the Sun
day School children, with their teachers,
.sscmbled, as they have been in the
.labil Of doing for several years past, at
the ID Baptist Westinghouse, where
addresses, showing the utility and i'm
portance of Sabbath Schools, were de-
liycrcd by the Clergy Of the place. I'M
mediately after these interesting scrvi-
ces, the Artillery Company, joined by
the Volunteers from this place and Mid
dlctown, who recently participated in
the scenes at Providence and Chopach-
ct, formed Il procession at the State
House, under the direction of Gen. IT,
Stacy, Jr. and proceeded to The Spring
street Church, where u sermon was
preached from Ex 33, Is, highly appro-
pirate to the timcs-Stato and National.
After tho exercises, the procession IL
gain formed and marched to the State
House, where the companies partook OF
n refreshing glass of lemonade and 9th
CT accompaniments, previously prepar-
cd for them by the Towns Committee
Of Arrangements. The day passed of
in becoming and orderly manner, re-
cen, events tending irrcsistably to pro-
dncc degree of soIomnty quite unu-
sual on this joyful anniversary.

withstanding their late ialiguing duty,

The Hon. Robert B. Cranston, Rep
rcscntativc in Congress from this State,
who came on from Washington to par
ticipate in recent events, il needed, in
formed us during his short visit here
last week that President Tyler when
required by Gov. King to interposc in
behalf of the State to put down the late
insurrection, declined complying with
the requisiiion on account Of its not be-
ins made by the Legislature, which
was in session at the time. The Presi-
dent presumed Gov. King to have been
led into the error by his (the Presi-
dent's) last communication, in which he
says "if an exigency Of lawlcss violence
shall actually arise, the Executive Go
vernncnt of the United States, OH the
application of your eXocllcncy under
the authority of tho Legislature already
transmitted, will stand ready to succor
the authorities OF the State" &c. The
Presidents dilemma was evidently not
pleasant ono-he was anxious TO do
his duty, and no more than his duty,
aud he assured Mr.. Cranston that II the
State was invaded and domestic violence
existed, and tho requisition was re-
newcd in the strict constitutional mode,
he should unhesitatingy comply.
Ii is, however, It matter OF sincere
qualification, that the requisition was
mol renewed, and that order has been
restored to our State by those who have
felt an interest in iis preservation.
