Orr FOREIGN RErAuoNs.--Since the advent o.
Mr.. Buchanan s administration, several importan,
treaties have been acted upon either in the C4bi-
net or the Senate. Tie Senate has ratified three
commercial treaties, viz: with Persia, SIAN and
Venezuela, and have had under considerati n
the Dallas Clarendon treaty in relation to Cen
trail America, which it virtually rejected yester.
day.
We are further informed that Mr.. Cass ha-
sent back the omnibus treaty, containing fse
several COW entions, with Mexico. This treaty
has never been acted upon by the Senate bu'
has been rejected in Cabinet council. Toe
Secretary of State sends letter explaining the
reasons FOR It's rejection a.d it is said that NJ
Forsy IT, our Minister at Mexico, has been ia
structed to make no more treaties in the ali
sence OF special instructions so TO do.
The rejection of the Mexican treaty win be
death blow TO that unfortunate republic. She i
now without the means 10 pay the expenses o
her government She is menaced by Spain o,
the one hand and by Great Britain On the other
Harassed by creditors from without and from
within, constantly threatened with internal Dis
scnsions, her treasury empty, her soldiers starv-
ing for their pay, she applied to the United
States as a last resource. Obtaining no aid
from us, the Mexican government must crumele
TO pieces, and her overthrow is only the begin
ming of the end Of movement which must re
suit in the extinction of all the efiete broken
down South American republics. Government,
which have M self sustaiuino nOypr must nj

that new treaty can be made at Washington

In this matter, our own interest is Identical with
that of England; and il vii, be as much for oar
