understanding between the Governments Of
Great Britain and tie United States with

By a joint treaty between those Govern

ment agrees to cede the Bay Islands, inclu-

return certain guarantees fer the neutrality.

quence OF this agreement, plan for estab-
fishing an efficient transit across the Isthmus

England and the United States are also said
to be in process Of satisfactory settlement
We rejoice at the probable happy termi-
nation Of a controversy which not long ago
threatened to inturrupt the friendly relations
of the two countries. \ war between En-
gland and the United States would be war
upon civilization and liberty, carried on by
the only two tations Of the earth which en-

On the 18th inst. this body of protested
cod liners assembled at Baltimore. There
doubtless were some genuine Wings among
ahcm, but, to every true one, we venture to
affirm there were two hernaphrGdites at each
shoulder, who were in the secrets and conf
dence of the Know Nothing and Wing par
ties, to keep him elbowed into the position
that was previously designed for him. The
old line Wings, after al their standing out,
have generally been maneuyerod into the
Know Nothing ronks. There are, however,
many proud executions. 1t IS very evident,
from the proceedings and speeches. that the
action Of the Convention had been fully pre-
determined. There was no meeting to take
counsel together" but it was Fillmore ARD

entirely Incompatible with independent wing

the controlling spirits to whip in the out

Know Notilings Rejoicing,

The opposition press, South, are haunting

vented the fusion Of the Fillmore and FIRE.

before the public the defeat of the Democra-

too weak to resist the tide Of fanatesm that

We were defeated III the late State elections

cry one knows Tat 1t was because the Know
Nothngs in those States were fused into a
common mass with the intensest fanatical
abolitionis,n down to TIE hghtost shade of
trcesoilism, and that they made common
cause against the National Democracy. Pre-
vious to the inauguration of Know Nothing
ism the contests in those States was between
the Democratic, Wing and Abolition par
ties; but Sam destroyed the Wing party,
and organized its clements into the Know
Nothing, alias, American, and lastly fused
with the old Abolitonists and formed the
Black Republican party. A few crazy old
line Wings, in Maine, who declined to go
into the fusion, yet entertaining the bitterest
hate to Democracy, cast their vetos away,
and not with the Democracy, to make the
success of the Black Republicans the more
certain The Democracy fought manfully
to maintain the frientis of the Constitution
IN the ascendaney, but they were overpow-
cred by the combination. But in all this,
what have Southern Know Nothings to re-
joiee ever? The friends of the Constitution
have been defeated and the enemies of
the rights ef the South have triumphed.
Here then, we have this remarkable state
of things; the conservative Democracy of
Iowa and Maine have been engaged in a
most fierce and powerful conflict to sustain
the principles of the Constitution against the
aggress;ons Of the Black Republicans, and
their defeat is the subject Of rejoicing among
Southern Know Nothings Has history
ever recorded any thing so unnatural? But
this is not all After the Democracy have
sacrificed themselves in those States in an

suming the executive duties in Kansas, ex-
hibits q gcol spirit, conciliatory and forbear-
ing. He advises all to lerd willing ODE
dicnce to the laws as they value peace and
hope for a sure and peaceable remedy for
any grievance. All the provisions of the
Constitution Of the United States must be
sacredly obseryed--all the acts Of Congress
having reference to the territory must be
unhesitatingly obeyed, and the decisions of
the courts respected. The people acoGstoni-
cd to self government in the States from
whence they came, and having removed to
the Verritnry with the bora fcls itscr'tioa
Of Making it ttei future residence, were
opposed to be capable of creating their own
municipal government, and to he the best
judges Of their own local necessities and in
stitutions. This right Of self government
guaranteed by the organic law of the Terri
tory, he will uphold with all his might and
he asks the cooperation Of the citizens to
aid him in the task.
