The TREATY.-It was expected that The
messenger who carried out to England the
ratified treaty, would have returned IN the
Brtannis, bringing with him its ratification
by the British Government. Bot we learn
Tia, the ra,ifcations had not been exchanC.
ed at the date oi ,ho sailing of the Brltannia.
The reason Of the delay doubtless is, that
subsequent to the arrival of Lord Ashburion,
the principle members OF the Government
were not in London, but scattered at their
respective country seals. Lord Ashburton, :,
who arrived in England Sept. %, did no, pro-
coed TO London but 10 his country seat,
where his family were residing No doubt
can be entertained that the treaty is approved,
and that 1t will be ratified. II any proof of
this were necessary, II might be found IN the
fact that large number of the troops IN
Canada have been ordered away since the
decision Of this question was known. We
doubt not that although u good deal of com
plant IS made OF the treaty bya portion otthe
British press, the government are fully salts.
fed with the terms Of 1t, as are almost ull
persons IN that country who were acquainted
with the real merits OF the questions IN dis
putc. As TO the boundary question, very
few persons IN England have troubled them
selves with any investigation of It's merits.
and II Is natural that there should have been
some feeling OF disappointment at the aban-
donment OF so large portion Of what had
been calied disputed territory, as is made by
the treaty. Aside from any regard TO the
real merits OF the treaty, there are reasons
enough why portion OF the English press
should be ready 10 avail themselves of this
occasion, to bring into odlum so important al
net of the Ministry. On the whole, we doubt
not that although some disappointment may
be !clt IN regard To the terms OF the treaty,
The fact, that the long prolractcd controversy
between the Two countries is brought tn u
close, gives very general satisfaction, and
that the treaty will ultimately meet with
general appreciation. Bu, however this may
be, the treaty viii undoubtedly be ratified
and we presume that the neat steamer will
bring out the ratification. Boston Daiiy

Long Services.

Some facts have recently been brought T.,
our notice IN relation to the length Of service.
OF the fathers and their two sons, each of two
families, ~ the Army Of the United States,
which we consider worthy of record.
The first Is that Of George X. IIoopcr,s
who fought nt the battles of Stoney-Point
and Yorktown and with his two sons have
served iheItsoaniry in the Army during n
period Of ninety five years.
The second family is that OF Stephen Twist.
who served in the Revolutionary Anny-al.
so under General Lincoln. in Shays' Re-.
b"lllon-and during the late war with Great,
Britain, and at all times with the highest rep
uiatiUn--and who, with his two sous. have
also served their country ia the Army during
period of ninety. five years; aud making
an aggregate of one hundred aud ninety. fv,
years.
1t may also be observed, that The same two
sons OF each of the above named two families.
still remain ~ service.
II Is probable that these Two eases, stand
with out a parallel for service in the Army of
