EDITOR OF THE PIoNEEa:
The British Mail Steamship, .asia, ar
rived here, yesterday morning, at about half
past eight O'Clock, from Liverpool /; after u
passage of 10 days and 81 hours.
The political news presents no very i'm
portant features.-The number of visitors
10 the Crystal Palace, on July a, was up
wards of $4,000 and the. receipts were
f2,6l4, s, 6.-The Irish Press and peo-
pie are chagrined at the failure of the North
.4mersca to make the trip from this port TO
Galway, which was so widely ads ertised on
both sides Of the Atlantic, and on which SO
many hopes wese based.-Cetton has de-
clined considerably, in the Liverpool mar
ket.
Mr.. Brace, the American imprisoned in
Austria, by order of the Austrian authori-
ties, has heen released.
The Sultan Of Turkey has fixed on the
LIST of September, as the day for the release
of kossuth, who, however, declines leaving
Europe at present.
A new class of emigrants are arriving at
this port-l mean men Of more means, and
more used to, and fond of, labor, than the
large majority of those who have been hith-
erto landed on our shores. A large body of
Scotch Highlanders numbering over 700,
have, also, just embarked for New York

Treaty Of Traverse des Sioux.

By the conditions Of the treaty, the Sioux In
dians cede to the United States all their lands
east of the Sioux river and lake Traverre, to the
Mississippi, except reservation OF about 100
miles by 20, on the head waters Of the Minnesota
river, amounting to more than 81 600, 900 ceres.
On their removal, which will be in two years, the
Indians will receive $275 900, sum believed to
be sufficient for them to settle up their business,
and to enable them to remove without embarrass-
ment to their new home. Then they are TO re-
are to receive in all, 665 90, TO be paid as fol-
lows:
After removal to Reservation, $275, 900
Expended in breaking land, erecting mills
and establishing manual labor school, 80, 900
The balance of 81 1860, 900, is TO be invested
at per cent. for so years, giving an annual in

States.
An Indian agency will be established at Lac
qhi-parle.
The treaty now in progress with the lower
bands at Mendoza, will determine what further
payments will be made to complete this purchase
of the most magnificent Indian empire on the
continent.

people, who represent the Upper Sioux attending
the treaty ut the Traverse, were as much at the
mercy Of the Government, as poor woman with
u family Of starving children, is at the mercy Of
the pawn-broker. to whom she carries the last
article of furniture from he, home, to pawn or sell
for something 10 eat. Nay, worse. There may
be competition amongst pawn~brokers; but our
Government alone can buy land of The Indian.
if any thing better than mean, hucksiering
spirit, worthy Of a nation Of peddlers and pawn
brokers, pervades our national government, there
is no probability, and we may say from know
ledge Of the provisions Of the treaty possibii-
lily, that the treaty viii be rejected, for the
son that it prov des for the payment Of too much,
for the purchase Of this vast country larger than
any State, and which. when soid will pay into
the treasury of the United States. not less than
$50 900 900, after making liberal deduction for
waste lands and for donations Of lands for public
purposes.
! Looking at the subjec, then in every light,
whether in reference to the absolute necessity Of
the treaty to the Indians themselves, TO the
clamorous demands of 10 900 whites to occupy
and settle the Sioux lands, a demand SO loud, SC
pressing, so imperious, that it will be next 10 i'm,
possible to resist it; pressure. which is hourl,
increasing, and must soon break over from the
Eas, and the South, treaty or treaty, into those
lands which Congress guarantees 10 the Indiar
the undisturbed possession of; or whether in ref
ercnce TO the interests Of the Treasury Of the
duty Of Congress to extingush Indian titles il
Minnesota, they have been extnguished else
where; Or whether, especially in reference to the
fact that if this treaty is now ratified, Minnesota
will make but two states, divided by line ex
tending east and west, but that ;f the treaty l.
not made, the East. ,r ceded part Of Minnesota
will make one state, and the West side, or un
coded part, be eventually formed into two more
states-in every view OF the subject, we can see
no reason why the treaty should not be received
with univ ersa e. vor, provided it Is liberal enough
10 the Indians to comport with the dignity justice
and generosity Of this great nation. towards it

The Council for Treaty with the Lower Bands
Of Sioux Indians, met at MENDOZA last Monday
One good feature about this treaty, is, that there
will be no reservations Of land. A treaty provid-
ng for reservations would not be ratified.
The Commissioners came down from Traverse
DIES Sioux, in Durham boat, every man working
at the oars. They made the run down, Of more
than 100 miles. in "a hours, leaving the Traverse
on Wednesday. and reaching MENDOZA on Thurs
day.
We invite the attention Of Democrats in Min
nesota, who think it worth while not to jeopardize
our Territorial interests, and especially the sue
cess Of the Sioux treaty, by partizan squabbe
about names, to read the following extract from
the report Of the Democratic Central Committee,
Of Massachusetts, on the 18th Of June, 1851. In
