Special Correspondence N. Y. Tribune.
WAsntyC TON, Monday Night April 81

As wrote you this morning, the
Treaty was sent in at IL to-day
The accompanying documents oc-
cupied 81 hours in the reading.
The Presidents Message that was
sent with the above is spoken of by the
Senators as a very abe paper. But
the documents--the correspondence
the evidence-that was to sustain the
arguments in the Message, occasioned
loud burst Of laughter from all the
Senators. The whole thing, as | I'M
derstand, is the most lame, miserable
jumbled up concern that could posi-
bly, have been concocted.
1t is thought that the Senate will
take off the seal of secrecy, and publish
the accompanying documents in day
or two.
Thus much has TRANSFERRED of the
Treaty.
l. Texas is to be admitted into the
Union as Territory, with one Rep
resentative, to be elected next October.
2. No allusion whatever is made to
Mexico in the Treaty.
8. The Texas Debt is to be paid
out of the proceeds Of the Public Lands,
the whole of which are to be surren-
dered 20 the Z. S.
4. The Boundary is to be left open
for negotiation hereafter.
s. A Board of Commissioners is to
settle the claims of debtors.
6. Slavery is to be left an open
question; the Northwestern part oil
Texas hereafter to be free State.
These are the leading points. The
Senate consider the treaty most inta-
nous one; and will reject it It will
not get majority of the Senate.

A COMPLIMENT TO our agricultural industry
is found 10 the fact that. in this county. where
the inducements and facilities for dairying
equal or exceed those Of any other, there has
never yet been butter enough manufactured for
The consumption Of the farmers themselves,
leaving he other portions of the community
to send abroad for this article Of food. No
wonder the farmers complain Of hard times,
when they ara compelled to pay twenty five
cents per pound for butter tina, only costs six,
bu, which they are too indolen, to manufac'
ture.
