THI GADepEN TREATY-SANTA ANNA, IN
LOBBY AND THE SENArE-According TO our pr
vate advices from Washington and the city
Mexico, the Gadsden treaty will be ratified BY
the Senate. 1t appears that Santa Anna ha
found out that the spoilsmen ct Washingto
are worked on the same high pressure system
as the spoilsmen Of the Mexican capital. None!
is the open sesame In both places; and II TIL
lobby is well supplied with the sinews Of wa
they will undertake anything, whether it isl
patent to enable Mr.. Colt to manufacture h
revolving pistols for the British army, q pate.t
for the further stretching OF India rubber NOM
poles, railroad land jobbing bill, or . treat
for the relief of the Cnickasaw Indians, or fo
the benefit of Santa Anna.
The lobby is ready for almost anything for .
consideration; and their machinery fer active
operations is exceedingly complex and beauti-
full. Wine, women. cards, oysters and cham
payne are among the principal devices; but in
all the mysteries of the lobby at Washington,
Santa Anna seems to be thoroughly posted up.
Better still-he has engaged the lobby in behalf
of the Gadsden treaty. and the treaty must go
through. A million or two millions, or even
three Millions may be well spared cut sfffteen
millions, for the lobby, where the whole sum is
at stake, and when a few ready millions are SC
urgently wanted as to be a matter Of life and
death. Surprising, therefore, that the lobby Of
Washington is chartered for this treaty, to the
extent of only two millions altogether, how are
the Senate to resist it? Take the following
schedule, for example -

ter. Here it produced precisely contrary ef
feet. The insincere course Of policy pursued by
the President in his domestic appointments had
given the first stimulus to the old anti-slavery
and proslavery elements ; and far sooner than
Mr.. Pierce expected, the old controversy arose
again in a more menacing shape than it had
ever assumed. The man who, free soiler in his
heart, had brazened out the canvass under the
mask of compromise advocate. and, with
still holder audacity, had repudiated that COM
promise when he had no longer anything to ex
pect from its advocacy, felt but the smallest
futter of embarrassment when the Nebraska
bill was introduced. He had execrated slave.
ry, he had extolled involuntary servitude,"
and he had once more placed himself at the
head of the anti-slavery faction; it must
have cost him very little indeed to fore
swear himself once more and throw the Presi-
Dental mantle over the repeal of the Missouri
compromise. Five months duplicity and fraud
made him President; other five months Of SINH
lar virtues might retain him in the Office. So
Franklin Pierce fathered the Kansas ebraska
bill, to abandon it in its turn as soon as he fam
cies he can do so with safety.
With this act his first official year closes To
him the retrospect may be grateful one. He
is now undoubtedly the most unpopular man in
the United States; and cannot delude himself
into the belief that be has one single dupe left.
But he is still President, enjoys o fraternal in
timacy with Forney, is at the head and front Of
corruption, and can plunge his arm to the
shoulder into the spoils. He may see no source
of regret or shame in the past.

WU-0r66C 8QSauC6 On br6aQSCuu&-U6-
cline in Consols-Cotton Market Firm.
HALIFAX, Jan. 23.-The royal mail
steamship NIAGARA, Captain Leitch, from
Liverpool, on the 18th inst, en- route for
Boston, arrived at this port this forenoon,
and reports unusual heavy weather dur
ing her passage, which has been prolong-
ed to nearly sixteen days. She will be
due at Boston at an early hour on We'd
nesday forenoon.
Great Britain, France and Belgium had
been visited with the heaviest snow storm
experienced for many years past, and ap-
prehensions were entertained of destruc-
tive floods from the melting snow and
rain.
The papers authoritatively state that
the French Government is dissatisfied
with the evasive conduct of Austria, and
had addressed strong remonsuance in
timating that any further accession from
the proceedings of the other powers will
be regarded as meditated hostilities, a re-
suit which Austria must be prepared to
abide. 1t is also intimated that France
will extend aid to Hungary and Italy.
The Russians had occupied the from
tiers of Austria and Wallachia from Orsi-
va down to Cronstadt. They were also
permitted to make purchases in Austrian
territory.
1t was reported that the peasantry had
risen along the Danube, from Kalafat TO
Tusna, and turned out the Russian
officials.
The intelligence from Constantinople
and st. Petersburg continues to be as
contradictory as ever; but the latest ru-
mors are of character to leave in the cs-
timation of the public scarcely any hope
that the Car will accept the last propo-
sition of the Western Powers and this
view of the matter is almost universally
entertained at Constantinople.
AS natural consequence Of the great
ly increased probabilities of general Eu-
ropean war, the English Stock and Bread
stuffs markets have been greatly excited,
and ConsolS closed on Friday at decline
of to l per cent on the week.
+ The Breadstuff market throughout
Great Britain had been more excited than
at any previous time since the famine in
Ireland, and prices had largely advanced.
The advance On Flour for the week, is
quoted by some respectable commercial
house at IS per barrel, and some quote
the actual advance at less than Is.
| Wheat has also advanced almost be-
yond precedent; ranging from lOd to lad
per bushel of 10 lbs.
The market for Indian Corn was less
excited than the Flour and Wheat mar.
ket, but prices have been advanced since
the sailing of the Europa from I'D to 2s
per quarter of 4S0 lbs.
The Cotton market continued very firm
at previous quotations, with transaction:
to the extent of about 10000 bales fol-
the week ending Jan. g..
The provision markets continue quiet
! and without any material change il
prices.
