Washington telegraph., 1854-03-01


American Of the 30th ultimo, contains the
following telegraphic dispatch concerning
the Gadsden treaty:
The Cabinet held four hours session
Yesterday relative to the Gadsden treaty.
The manifestations of disafection with it
are so decided in certain quarters, that it is
by no means certain that it win be sent to
the Senate after all. A day, or two how
ever will decide
The treaty does not obtain territory
enough to suit portion Of the Cabinet, and
now that Walker ard his fillibusters are be-
| licved to have been successful, it is urged
with much force that Santa Anna will prob
ably be more ready than he was a month
ago, to throw in Lower California, and all Of
Sonora, for the twenty millions he is after.
1t is also argued that a treaty ought not
to be made giving Santa Anna money to
support al army with, while these fllibust-
ering operations-which in the end may
command the sympathies Of a large portion
Of our people-present him an excuse or
temptation to turn his armies against us.
Gentlemen who take these positions, urge
the propriety of sending Mr. Gadsden back,
with instructions to make another effort to
obtain Lower California, and, perhaps, the
Sierra Madre a. the boundary line between
the United States and Mexico.
My own impression j. that the President
viii throw the responsibility on the Senate,
by sending in the treaty leaving it to the
Senate to make an amendment, if it chooses,
embodying the proposed demand for addi-
tional territory. 1t will not be strange if
Mr. Gadsden should return speedily on
this supplemental mission which such action
would render necessary. The effort will be
made to secure some immediate action BY
the Senate, if the treaty is sent in
