graph Yesterday It will be observed, as we sug'
gested yesterday. that the Telegrsphic dispatch
was in error in saying that the Treaty bad been

contrary that there was 10 quorum Of the National
Legislature at Queretaro, but that 4 majority OF
those present were in favor Of the Treaty. Ga the
whole we regard the news ~ decidedly favorable
