The Nicaragua Treaty with Great Britain, which
has for some time past been pending before the
Senate, was yesterday ratified by nearly a unani.
nous vote Of that body Its publication in a few
days will prove bow shemefuly the Secretary of
State has been assaed by the opposition press,
and how strong the reasons for approaching the
manner in which this negotiation has been con.
Quoted by Mr.. CLAYTON. Never before has Eng.
land yielded as much in her diplomatic intercourse
with any other nation as she has surrendered by
This Treaty, made and concluded under the aus
pices of Mr.. CLAYTON And / will venture the
assertion that it will be conceded by the most viru-
lent partisan, after it has been published that it is
the most advantageous treaty ever made with
Great Britain. If there is anything more, within
the bounds Of reason and justice, that Mr.. CLAYTON
could have obtained that is not secured b. this
Treaty, should be glad TO see i. pointed out And
yet we have obtained no advantage that We were
not honoraby and justly entitled TO; nor mas England
surrendered anything that proper sense ofjustics
ought not to have prompted her 10 have done. In
attempting to gain an undue and unnatural adyan-

ENGLAND committed wrong which she ound IL
impossible to maintain; and whicj at some sscri-
fee of national pride she has at last surrendered,
with stipulation never 10 make similar attempt
in any Of the States Of Central America. She has,
in fact recognized the Mqnroe doctrine in its
broadcast sense, and obligated herself 10 a faithful
observance oft principles.

Not only does this treaty secure the one, and vim

is only equsled by Mr.. EwIso, the Secretary OF the
ILterior. This, even those who have reviled him
the most are at length constrained 10 concede.
The city is rife with rumors from the South as 10
the Cuban expedition, and great deal Of solici-
tude and anxiety is felt by the Administration as
10 the fnal result. The President is sustained in
bis course by Messrs WEBSTER, CLAY, and 9th
srs IN the Senate, all Of whom regard this Cuban
adventure as a violation Of our treaty obligations
with Spain, for which there is 10 excuse left to
hose who ere engaged in IL. They have, however.
embarked in the enterprise with their eyes wide
open, and in the face Of the Presidents proclams-
