The Intslligencer announces that Lord
Elgin's mission to Washington, was
crowned with success; saying now very
properly:
Through the good offices of this enlighten-
ed nObleman, combined with the efforts of the
popular Minister of England, and the just and
pacific dispositions of our Secretary Of State
acting of course under the sanction Of the
President, We believe that the terms Of treaty
on the Fishery and Colonial questions have
been negotiated and signed by the respective
parties, which will, when ratified by the re-
spective Governments, settle finally the last
link in the chain Of knotty questions VIII CHI
have so long perplexed and fret;ed and with
stood the diplomacy OF the two countries, and
furnisbed so much capital for demago:ues sud
fOrmenters of strife to work upon the popular
mind with. We do lot profess TO know. and
do hot care to inquire into he tie ms of THE
adjustment We are sa,Isfed for the presen,
to know that an old and Irritating sore :

gained in the happiness Of the world, AMIGA
bly, TO settle q atiOnal di.pute upon any terms
TeAs 1nably far In this case. We are sure
none other have been demanded or conceded.
and we are qaite ccrtent to leave the eond-
tons OF the set-lem Mt to the good sense fair
hess, and responsibility Of the respective
negotators.'
The Union is indignant at the act of
the National Intsliigencer for claiming the
election of MIR. Conrad in Philadelphia
as an anti-Nebfaska victory, saying:
