Treaty Of Peace.

Rumors by the way of Canada and also tIro'
Ohio, state positively that treaty of peace has
been formed.
Gen. Scott took the responsibility Of accept
ting the Treaty, which was signed on the LIST
of February.
We are secured the boundary of the Rio
Grande: and New Mexico, and Upper Califor-
MIA, for pecuniary onsideratons-which are
trifing compared with the propositions at the,
conference at Tacubaya.
The expedition against Orizaba, principally
intended for the capture of Santa Anna at Te-
huacan. has failed, through the treachery of
Mexican.
Mr.. Franer, the bearer of the Treaty, arrived
at Mobile, in the Steamer Iris, on his way to;
Washington.
From all we can learn, we think treaty has
been submitted to the Senate. Whether it con-
tans guaranty against Slavery-how much
money we are to pay to Mexico-in short what
arc its particular provisions, no one can tell.-
1t is idle to speculate, until the terms of the
treaty are made public. The Treaty is se--
cret paper, known only to Gen. Scott, the Mex
lean authorities, the President and the Senate.
Letter writers and editors may guess at its con-
tents, but nothing satisfactory can be known.
until the seal of secrecy has been removed by
the treaty making power.
some OF the letter writers pretend to have
seen the Treaty, and affect to give its minutest
particulars. One writer says:
Trists original proposition has been agreed
to, and that he has stipulated that the United
States shall have standing army of $4,000
men to protect the Mexican Government.
Another writer remarks:
BY this treaty we are secured possession Of
the Rio Grande as boundary line, together
with New Mexico and Upper California for a
pecunary consideration, which is but trifiIe
compared to the propositions made at the con-
ference at Tacubaya.
We repeat that nothing can be known in re-
gard to the treaty until it has been made pub
lie by authority. If it requires us to keep up
standing army in Mexico to protect partcu-
lar government in that distracted country, it
will, in our opinion, prove curse to both ma
tons, rather than blessing. "Entangling al
liances' with foreign powers have been the ru-
in of more Republics than one.

RESOLUTIONS.

AT a special meeting of Ypsilanti Division No.
ii, of s. of T. held at their Hall, Feb. 90
l84S, it was on motion
RESOLVED, That the members of this Divis-
ion have heard, with the deepest sorrow, the
announcement of the death of HENRY MARTIN,
whose connection with us, thought but recent,
and, whose zeal in the cause of Temperance,
had led us to form the highest hopes of his fu-
ture usefulness.
RESOLVED, That in the sudden decease of
our Brother, we are at once admonished of the
uncertainty Of all earthly prosperity, and the ne
cessity OF constant readiness on the part of
members of our bene6cent order, to put in
practice, those principles of benevolence and
goodwill, which it is its peculiar glory to in :
culcate.

The Town Elections.

The period fixed for our town elections is.
rapidly approaching. We are by no means
fond of carrying the strife of party. in all its
bitterness, into every occasion which calls for
the exercise Of the right of suffrage. Indeed
we should greatly prefer, that all difference, in
our choice of men should be confined to the pur-
poses for which they are chosen:-That our
preference OF one individual over another as a
candidate for Congress, might have nothing to
-nrA.nrtinn-n from preferriDg
that other over the one as a candidate for the
office of constable:-but such does not hap
pen to be the effect of our present political Or
ganzation. and we cannot change it. 1t so
happens that strict adherence in the smallest
matters, of Political organizations essential to
success; and defeat or success, in our coming
township elections, will materially darken or
brighten our prospect of success in theall imp
ortant campaign approaching. But it is well for
the good administration of Town and borough
officers that there should be emulation enough
to call attention TO The selection of proper per-
--.s, and perhaps, there is no less troublesome
way of securing this, than to continue the lines
of distinction which divide us on National and
State policy, through all the ramifcations of
our civil framework. The ensuing township
election, will exert great influence, upon the
Presidential campaign. Leading politicians
will scan the result closely TO gather the symp-
toms of popular sentiment, and many plan of
ambitious Office seekers will be crushed, or cher
lshed as it shall indicate. IL becomes MeWhigs
Of Michigan 10 look to this particularly; in
asnuch as, by our ealpa6le neglect, sce gaze all
the t:.fuence of last Falls election to our oppo-
nents. We cannot afford to grant truce in
our Town Elections after that defeat. We
must fight the Springs election-iffor nothing
more-to show our undimnished strength, and
unbroken will. We must exert ourseiyes-if
for nothing more-to gather vigor for the APP
preaching contest. The defeat of the Wings
last Fall brought forth LEWIS CASS as
prominent Candidate and an increase of the
popular majority Of his party this Spring, will
proportionably strengthen the.idea of his pop
ularity-without any just reason truly, but that
would be the effect. In a word the coming
Town Election offers fine opportunity to COM
mence onr organizations; let it be improved.-
Our misgoverned State, and the ill direction of
our National affairs demands every check, how
ever small, than can be placed in the path to de-
struction.

JOHN QUINCY ADAMs.-The death of this dis
tingushed Statesman sewers almost the last
link which binds the present with the past and
purer days of our Republic. The ray of the last
taper kinJled by the hallowed fires of Revou-
tionary patriotism is extnguished. For Ion
ger period than any other individual Statesman
he participated in public affairs, and occupied a
conspicuous place in the public mind. Ofcourse,
he was the object of many an envenomed shaft,
but they all fell harmless, far short of the exal
| ted station he occupied: And so false-so ev-
/ rI'0He'J si--.larn,rs and base was every attempt
at aspersion, that the author and utterer of il
lnatinctlvely felt the brand of shame upon his
brow, and the consciousness of deserving the
contempt of every good man, in his breast, from
the moment he so forgot the respect due to vr-
tue. NO wonder that some men, are now sc
ready and ample in their eulo gies The AID
ministration of Mr.. Adams was the last which
for its purity and patriotism, deserved the com
Elementary cur Sc of reckless and ambitious
enemy:''tho' theAdministration is as pure as the
Angels in heaven, it shall be overthrown." II
sVuS over thrown: urd who has not regretted it
| Who will now say that since the advent of Gen
Jackson the govt. has taken direction more
conducive to the interest and prosperity of the
Country: to the perfection and perpetuity oil
our Liberties? With this dispensation of Prov
ldence, comes reflections which are abunden,
cause for national grief. We could not expect
always to retain the aged patriot among us,and
1T is absurd to grleve that he has gone to his
reward: But alas! That there are none who
have followed in his footsteps-who can fill his
! vacant place.
