W,sulSGroS Monday Night. Apni =.
As wrote YOU this morning, the Treaty was
sent in at - to-day.
The accompanying documents occupied 81
hours in the reading
The Presidents Message that was sent with
the above is spoken of By the Senators as Il very
able paper. But the documtnts-thc correspond
cncc-the eyidence-that was TO sustain the ar
cuments in the Message, occasioncd loud burst
of laughter from all the Senator's. The whole
thing, as understand, is the most lame, miSer-
able, iumbled up concern that could possibly have
been concocted.
1t is thought that the Senate will take oft the
seal of secrecy, and publish the accompanying
documents in day or two.
Thus much has transplred of the treaty
|. Texas is to be admitted into the Union as a
Territory, with one Representative, to he elected
next October.
>. No allusion whatever is made to Mexico in
the Treaty
3. The Texas Debt is to be paid out of the pro-
ceeds of the Public Lands, the whole of which are
to be surrendered to the L. S.
L. The Boundary is to be left open for nesoiia-
ton hereafter
;. A Board OF Commissioners is to settle the
claims OF debtors
g. Slavery is TO he left an open question; the
Northwestern part Of Texas hereafter to be free
State.
These are the leading points. The Senate
consider the treaty most infamous one; and
will reject it, 1t will not get a majority OF the
Senate. .luNIUs, JK.
