The viii candid re for Governor viii be, no
doubt Maine law man. Wonder if the free
soil soft shells will re-noninate Governor Sey-
mour! Ten to one they will drop him. Upon
the whole, the strength Of the Temperance AL
lance, as developed last year, and their call
for State Convention to operate directly upon
the elections this year, warrant the prediction
that New York will have the benefit of pro-
hibitory liquor law in full blast before this time
next year. Indeed, from all the signs upon
every side, the Seymour and the lager bier
party will, upon the liquor question, suffer the
election to go by default. Can nothing be done
for Seymour?

The MEXICAN TREATY--A Moe FINANCIAL
OPERATIoN.--We understand that certain par
ties in Washington are trying to get hold Of
the three millions in the Treasury Department,
the balance due Mexico under the ten million
treaty, when the boundary line is run. It will
be remembered that the treaty was rejected by
the Senate, when the appropriation to pay
Mexico was seven millions. The day following,
however, by hocus pocus arrangement, never
satisfactorily explained, the rejected treaty was
reconsidered, three millions added to the " in
demnity," and in this shape ratified. The third
article of the treaty reads thus -
In consideration of the foregoing stipulstions the
government Of the United States agrees to pay the
government Of Mexico in the city Of New YORK. the sum
Of ten millions OF dollars, of which millions shall,
be paid Immediately upon the exchange OF the ratiaca
ons OF this treaty and the remaining three millions az
soon ms the boundary Lines shall be surveyed marked,
and established.
Seven millions have already been paid to
Gen. Amonte, as is well known. The three
millions appears to have been left to pay the
spoilsmen, and accordingly they are naturally
anxious to finger the cash. What pretext they
will hatch up to evade the provision of the
treaty which declares this balance is not to be
paid till " the boundary lines shall be surveyed,
marked and established we know not, but as
necessity is the mother of invention, aud the
money market is tight, there is little doubt
modus operandi will be discovered, if the ope-
rators do not lack the courage to carry out
their designs. II seems hard case, at all
events, that any fuss should be made about q
portion OF il. when the whole arrangement is a
swindle.
it was said that Gen. Almonte, after getting
that seven million draft, was going to Europe
TO rest awhile after his labors. But, according
to the latest accounts, this distinguished Mex
can is still at Washington. Doubtless the pro-
per parties representing Mexico are prepared
to pay good bonus for cash down, so tibet
they can distribute their favors like honorable
men, from the White House to the Capitol,
stopping at the intermediate landings In
the absence Of reduction Of the tariff, let US
rid Secretary Guthrie Of his surplus by all
means, so as to do the most good.

THE SARATOGA CONVENTIONAL SPLIT FEARED
IN ADvAScE.-The public are well advised of
the fact, that on the 10th day OF August there
is to be State Convention at Saratoga
Springs of the Anti-Slavery Alliance; and that,
without reference to past party distinctions,
they are to rally together in o new party, for
the restoration OF the Missouri Compromise,
the destruction Of every man who dared to sup
port its repeal in Congress, and for continued
and relentless war against the extension Of the
area Of Southern slavery in any direction what
ever.
l. 1t was thought, at first, that this Ali
ance would absorb the whig party of the State,
body and breaches, a large portion of the Buff
ialo Van Buren, faction, and all the free soil
party proper, all the abolixonists, all tae 90
calists, and all other reforming philosophical
outside factions in the commonwealth, incIud-
ing the strong-minded women and the free
colored Americans. But the programme Of
Weed and Greeley does not work smoothly. The
Fillmore and Websterian whig editors Of the
State, and some others, who do not believe that
the wing party is dead yet, prefer to hatch up
the old whig organization and they predict
that the affair at Saratoga will end in con-
temptible izzle."
These disagreements very materially compli-
cate our political embarrassments. We shall
now, probably, have more than half dozen
factions or parties in the feld--the hard shells
and soft shells-perhaps two or three fac
tons of each-the Temperance Alliance, the
Anti-Slavery Alliance, the wings, the Know
Nothings, the Irish Catholic party, the Germa-
mic lager bier party; and nobody can tell how
many more,
We shall wait with some anxiety the Saratoga
convention, for upon its success or failure will
materially depend the success or failure of the
grand projected anti-slavery alliance of all the
North for the campaign Of 1856. From pre-.
sent appearances, the Saratoga concern will, in
reality, end in fzzle. Weed, Greedy and
Bryant must be stirring their stumps There
is mutiny in the camp.
