The Union" newspaper, determined to remain
in ignorance of historical incidents which its own
columns convict it of misunderstanding or misre.
membering persists, in its issue of Saturday, in
turning deaf ear to the evidence from the columns
of this paper that the character of the Treaty OF
1850 between this Government and Great Britain
was publicly known at the time, and processes to
Treaty in the National Intelligencer of the Sth of
July of that year conceit of our own, not
sustained by the facts. On that point, after MIR.
CLAYTON Specification in our paper of Saturday, it
is unnecessary for US to add another word
But, since the " Union is not, or preends not
10 be, content With the irrefutable evidence which
has been produced of contemporaneous construction
of the Treaty, drawn from the columns of the Ma
tonal Intelligencer, we will convict that journal
fran is srH columns of the baselessness of the
charge which it renews in its Saturday number
against Ex-Secretary CLAYTON (and of course against
the deceased President TAYLOR, under whose orders
he acted of '.faithlessly violating his trust" by
consenting to British ussrpation in Central Amerl-
ca. Our readers have already before them the evi-
dence that Mr., Secretary CLAYTON studiously avoid
cd "consenting to the British title to the terri
tory known as British Honduras, leaving the ques
tion untouched. In doing this, we will show that,
instead Of the vilanous aspersions which the Union
has ndecently cast upon him, he had the authority
Of the " Union itself for not meddling with the
British title to Honduras
We invite the reader to open the volume of g the
Union for the year 1850, and under the date Of
April the 24th of that year he will find an Editorial
article in reply to a publication in Philadelphia
paper in which the British title to this same Hon-
duras is explicitly recognised by the Union" as it
had before been by the Democratic Administration,
of which that paper was at the time the organ.
From that article we copy the following:
Mr.. Hampstead was indeed appointed Consul,
. Tby the administration of President Polk, but
t" not to Mosquito. He cas appointed a Consul to
20 Beli.e some tuo three hundred Mules north of
i" he Mosquito coast. II is the capital of a small
" territory called British HONDURAS, ,chtch has
" been "a possession Of tie British FOR NEARLY TWO
" HUNDRED YEARS. The possession of the Eng
: lish, although originally an intrusion was RE-
" coGNIsED BY THE SPANISH MoNARcHs IN THEIR
!" SEVERAL TREATIES, in all of which the British
Government solemnly relinquished all claim of
" sovereignty over, or right of possession in, the
+" other Spanish Provinces of Central America"
Has Mr.. Secretary CLAYTON, or any Wing states
man or Journal either before or since this recognition
Of the British title the territory by the Democratic
organ ever made out so strong case for the British
Government?

. THE CASE or THE GENERAL ARMsTRoSG-By the late
from Europe information has been received Of the
rendition Of award by Louis Napoleon in the matter
of the celebrated claim made by Government against
that Of Portugal for indemnifcation for the loss Of the
american privateer General Armstrong in 1914 and hc
ddrd has been adcerse the clam and favor Of Portu-
GAL The General Armstrong belonged to Capt Reid,
Of New York. who claimed indemnity Of 500 900
and in lS49 the Secretary Of State Mr. Clayton, and
the Portuguese Minister agreed behalf Of their re-
specve Governments TO submit the whole matter the
arbitration of Louis Napoleon. the then President Of
France. That parsonage has since been made OF
the reignng monarchs Of Europe, and his decision,
stated above, il against the United States"
We place before our readers the preceding para.
graph for the purpose Of correcting misapprehen-
sion of fact. 1t was not Mr.. CLAYTON who agreed
with the Portuguese Minister to the arbitration Of
Louis Napoleon, or any one else. While in Office
Mr. CLAYTON and Gen. TAYLOR both insisted on
the payment Of the Gen. Armstrong claim without
arbitration. Before Mr. CLAYTON left the Office of
Secretary Of State the negotiations with Portugal
had resulted in the agreement with Portugal to
settle all the claims which have been subsequent
" paid, except the claim of the Gen. Armstrong
II was not till after Mr. CLAYToN's leaving the
Department Of State that that claim was refer
red to arbitration. Without pronouncing upon the
merits Of the arbitration Of the caim-concerning
which there exists some difference Of opinion-it
seems to be right that whether to be praised or
blamed the responsibility for the consent to arbi
tation should be placed where it properly belongs

The Legislature Of FLORIDA probably closed its
session on Saturday last, according to appointment.
Speaking Of its dongs on the 4th instant, the Tai
lahassee Sentinel says:
The amount Of legislation performed during the
sion has, we think been large but the greater part is Of
an unimportant character Exceptions, however exist
in the railroad bills the general banking law, and the
new in reference schools The latter
we have not seen The act amending the charter Of the
Florida Atlantic and Gulf Central Railroad was IN the
Senate shorn Of its provision authorizing State sub
scrpon TO the work. but understand the friends Of
the bill are satisfied with it. and confidently predict the
success Of this great State work The liquor law was
killed in the House, hardly know why. There was
talk about constitutional difficulty, but Il needs
sharper optics than TO where il lies"
