colonial fish into ports prior to the CONCLUSION OF al
the acts necessary to give full effect the treaty Mr. Per
e arrived here yesterday from Washington and was en-
,irely successful in the objects OF his visit
The Secretary Of State in official letter Of the 10th
states that in consideration of the admission Of American
sing vessels to the benefits of the nshore fisheries the
Uued States government derous of admitting colonial
h free duty once but has power to do il by the
existing law But he that application viii be
made 10 Congress by the Executive for for refund
Ing the duties which may be paid on such fish
The Acting Secretary of the Treasury, Mr. p G. Wash

Under these circumstances the certificates thus issued

We also learn tha, the Crown officers Of the British gov
eminent have given the opinion that action of the inn
pera government necessary give effect the treaty,
because the laws made in pursuance Of the convention of

convention.
The colonial legislature OF New Brunswick will on
Thursday the 10th instant and wiz the treaty
No special meeting of the government of Nova Scotia has
ordered for the purpose of accepting the treaty but it
believed that important the interests
province viii not be delayed The prospect is there
fore that the treaty, in all Its points viii be allowed TO
take effect in the OF another month The President
win probably issue his proclamation, giving effect the
treaty. after the requirements Of the act Of Congress shall
be complied with through the necessary colonial action,
and without waiting for act of the British Parliament
such act be deemed unnecessary by the British gov
ernment.
II is be regretted that there means Of renting

Is correspondent of the New Orleans Crescent
gives the following fattering portrait of Cincinnati:
3. Here I am in the meanest place in the United
States and, far as my experience goes the meanest
place in the world ! have no particular objection
a mans being mean. provided he is wise withal,
but when he combines insanity with meanneSS, then,
think, he becomes emphaticaIIy, and unutterably
contemplate. | find the people here particularly
partial to that species Of operation which is fgura-
lively described biting off your to spite your
face. Owing to the decline of meanness in the South
en States, Cincinnati, fancy, has been established
as an institute for the cultivation and propagation of
meanness, and The perfection they have arrived at in
the science would utterly astonsh even Jew, 1t is
odd thing that they should many hogs here,
Tor verify believe that if such thing Il hog had
never been seen for hundred miles around the re-
Sembance of the people in moral character to that
beast would at once strike the most unanalogicaly-
disposed man.
You are, or not, perhaps aware that If one out OF
drove OF hogs happen to get stuck firmly and secure
lynn fence, his companions will fall to and eat him up.
In like manner do the Cncinnatans behave to feI-
Iowcitzen if he gets into any difficulty; they will be
civil enough to him so long as he is in position 10
realiate but helpless, and they cry, pitch in
to him !" "Give ii to him-he's got no friends" is
their motto on such occasions. The hotels here, and
have been to most of them, are abomnabIe dirty,
bad food bad walters, stupid Irsh and saucy niggers
Indifferent appointments and impertinent clerks
and proprieOrs There is only hotel where
have met with decenty civil treatment and that is
the Gibson House."
