wA treaty has been concluded between
tho United States and the Free and Hanseat-
ic Republics Of Hamburg. Bremen and Lu
bee, for mutual extension of the jurisdiction
of the consuls Of the contracting parties.
The treaty provides that the consuls, vice
consuls, commercial agents of each of the
contracting parties shall have the right to
sit as Judges arbitrators in such differences
as may arise between the masters and crews
of the vessels belonging to the nation whose
interests arc committedto their charge with
out the interference of the local authorities,
unless the conduct Of the crews or master
should disturb the order or tranquility ofthc
country; or the said conRuls, vice consuls,

reliable authority, that s number Of leading
merchants, including chiefly ship-owners
and agents, had commenced suit against
the late Collector. Hugh Maxwell Esq.
for the recovery d Illegal exaciiohsl which,
it was said had been going on for several
years. The aggregate amount Of the resti-
tuition claimed was said to be very large,
and that very little doubt was expressed BY
the able counsel employed but full recovery
would be had. II successful against Mr..
Maxwell, such Of his predecessors as were
living and were solvent, and who had APP
proved of similar illegal exactions, would
be proceeded against. The merchants, as a

shipping business. had formed resolution
to resist all illegal practices, whether eman-
attng from the officers Of the Custom House

his conclaye with some of the most reconcile
philosophers of the day in regard to the

mystery were propounded but an eminent
psychologist at length put an end to all dis

the rit-Rappings were produced by
Phnatom Post men. who were engaged in
the delivery of the dead letters. The meet

Drvorlor TO THE Consrrrurros REWARDS

DEVOTION TO THE CONSTITUTION REWARDED
We do not know why the Massachusetts
Legislature denied o statue to DANIEL WEE
sTER. Probably for the same reason that she
excluded him from Faneul Hail. But as the
resolutions authorizing the statue seem to have
gone through the deliberate ordeal of division,
rejection, and reconsideration, we may assume
that the refusal was the result of political ami
mostly.
We might deplore such an exhibition of NAL
ice If we did not reflect that it is impotent to
effect its purpose.
The Lion Of the North and the Bulwark Of
Constitution can wait for monument, as the
fame of Emmett can wait for an epitaph. Fa-
naticism forbids the one and Despotism denies
the other. Architectural monuments and laud-
atory inscriptions are but insignificant incidents
to the renown of such men. The obscure de-
tractors who would extinguish fame by with
holding their own acknowledgment, will be
only redeemed from oblivion by the record Of
their malevolence.
