pers of the the 9th inst, and dates from Bo-
goto, the national capital, 10 the 18th ult
The treaty ofpeace between New Grenada
and Ecuador binds those Governments TO
aid each other, in the event of hostililes
against either, by any other country. In
consequence Of the hostile approach Of Gen.
Flores upon Ecuador, The President Of Gren-
ada has called upon his Congress for the sum,
of 100000 Of reals or $4,000, 900; and
further, that 10000 men, be called to serve
under arms, in order 10 assist the sister Re-
public. He gives it as his opinion, and to
sustain this call for aid, that Flores is mere
'ly endeavoring 10 carry out his revolutionary
movement Of 1916, in which he was defeat
ed by the British Government, and that the
object Of the present revolution is TO ie-es,
tablish Monarchical Government on the
South Pacific Coast, under the old Spanish
rule. He also expressed his fears that
Flores, if successful in Ecuador, will imme-
diately come into New Grenada, and there
fore deems it not only q matter Of honor,
but also Of policy, 10 assist Ecuador. h
Our charge at Ecuador, Caleb Gushing, has
sent dispatch 10 the President Of that Re
public, in which be says that che believes
|
himself sufficiently authorized 10 state that
the Government of the United States will
not look with indifference at any warlike
movements against Ecuador, likely to effect
| its independence or present Government.

Proposed Connection .


Several gentlemen from Newark and Som
ersct were here, "Wednesday, for the purpose
offorming a connection with the Scioto and
Hooking Valley Company, provided said
company are willing TO run their road to
Somerset, on lbe way 20 Newark. We are
informed that The citizens Of Perry county
are prepared to lend all their energies 10 this
road and to meet il at Logan, Hooking coun-
". The proposition is regarded with favor
by the Ditecto,s at this place, and we under
stand they have consented to an immediate
preliminary suyvcy Of the route between Jack
son and Somerset. The route to Newark is
shortcr by the latter place than by Lancaster,
which The company had intended to make a
point ON The road. Anotherreason for chang
ing to Somerset is that the energies of Ian
caster are now being cxered towards The
completion Of the Cincinnati, Wilmington
and Zaneseille railroad, and the citizens OF
that place cannot tlierelore give us that aid
which those OF Somerset and Perry county,
beins unincumbered by debt and anxious fol
hlc road, are able and willing to give. We
lave, then, by making this connection the
double advantage Of a shorter route and a
more expeditions completion Of the road tc

tanee in railroad making. A.

The total rise of these two articles is

tions increase in similar immense fatio.--
The value of property delivered on the New

l842 1922, 2,75l, ,0l3, and with the deliveries
by rail, will reach S75,000;000 for 1851

an increase Of 400 per cent. in the internal
trade OF the Stale. Such has been the vast
accumulation, and that accumulation IT,
creases with greater rapidity."
We believe the grand summing up of all
whig arguments in favor of general in
crease Of the tariff Of 46 is, that tue pro-
ductive interest of the country is suffering,
and things are growing worse and worse,
withno hope even in the remote future for
remedy, unless the whig notions Of the tar
if prevail.
To all such we point to the above stats-
ties, psed as authority by the Cincinnati Ga
zette, showing the figures TO prove that un-
der the tariff of '46 the productive interests
Of the country have augmented much over
one hundred and fifty per cent, and that now
that increase is still going on with "greater
rapidity."
