THE GADSDEN TREATY.

The reports concerning the rejection of the Gads-
den Treaty by Santa Anna so industriousy put in cir
culation since the action of the Senate that dplo
matte masterpiece, turn out to be entirely
His Serene Hghness has neither rejected the treaty
nor modified it, terms but accepts all the changes the
Senate saw fit make in it, including the dOueeur OF
ten instead of twenty millions He is evidently as
much pressed for money as ever, and would very
probably have taken even five millions had no more
been offered and at that rate would have malea
very shrewd bargain. For the truth is that all he
sells for these ten millions costs him nothing. and is
really not worth much. The territory ceded is utterly
vaueless for the purposes of settlement aud habita-
ton: the line for railroad, which it is supposed 10
contain is not of the slightest consequence the
Mexcans; and for the abrogaton OF the obnoxious
article in our treaty of peace with Mexico and the
abandonment of all claims for damages under 1.-THE
only thing in the new treaty for which our Govern
ment would be justified in paying-t will never cost
the Dictator cent for of he will never pay
the claimants any part of their demands Therefore,
whether he gets twenty millions or ten or whatever
he gets he makes operation over Which he has
right to chuckle.
Col. Benton yesterday made demonstration against
the grant by the House of Representatives OF the
money required TO carry out the provisions OF the
treaty. lie bases his opposition on the ground that
the whole affair is invasion Of the privileges OF the
House and that corruption has been employed in 1t.
The latter especially is grave charge and what Is
more it is very generally believed TO be true This
belief will only become strengthened by any attempt
10 keep longer in secrecy the papers relating 10 the
matter. lie, us have all the documentary and other
testimony touching the character of the entire
transaction. This certainly is due TO the public,
whose money il is proposed 20 employ. and might not
be injurious TO the parties. whose reputation has been
assailed in the premises. Mr.. Pierce and Mr.. Marcy
if they honest men, ought particularly to desire
that all the real facts connected with this treaty
should be laid before the world
