The Mexican Treaty aud what
MeXiCans Think oft.

The Rcactionary party in Mexico
are furious over the new treaty be.
tween Mexico and the United States.
The Liberals are highly pleased with
it. They say the United States will
receive certain commercial advants-
ges in return for others conferred up
on Mexico which will prove valuable
to the country. The Minister of For.
eign Affairs Of the Miramon govern.
ment protests that the Juarez gov ern.
ment had no right, under the Const.
tuition OF 1857, to part with any por.
ton of the Mexican territory, nor
were they vested with the power and
right to make treaties with foreign na.
tions. The most curious and cxtrhv.
agant surmises are made, some pre-.
tending that 10000 troops will be
sent to Vera Cruz shortly, tor the pu,.
pose of invading the country; others,
that the Government of the United
States will secure the ports to the Lib.
eraI cause, thus permitting Juarez to
employ all his resources for the con.
quest Of the interior; while others,
again, pretend that the United States
furnish nothing but money, and very
little of that. The government organ
publishes an article in which open
war, and war to the knife, is declared
to the unfortunate Yankees. 1t fin.
ishes with these words: "We shall
then have war with tue United States,
for when the sword of Brennus 10
thrown into the scales there is no Judge
but the battle field"

A Volcano in New York State.
The Troy Arena Of January 10th is

responsible for the following:
"The facts herein stated may up.
near somewhat incredible to those not
conversant with them. They can,
however, be substantiated by thous.
ands Of witnesses residing in the vi.
cinity alluded to, and may be relied
upon as strictly true in every particu.
lar. In Putnam county, in this State,
nearly opposite West Point, there is q
mountain known as Break Neck
Mountain, into which there is an open.
ing of cavernous description, some.
what irregular in form, but quite
straight in its direction, and twenty
feet or more in diameter, ont of which
at certain times there issues masses Of
matter with great force. These erup.
tiOns are composed of vitreouS and
mineral substances OF various kinds,
together with fragments of trees, and
not unfrequently mingled with eviden-
ces of animal existence. These masss
es amount sometimes in bulk to sever
al tons; they cause deafening roar,
and are accompanied by fire aud smoke.
The existence of this volcano has not
been known until latterly, which is
probably the reason that it has atl-ac.
ted no more notice"

Sensible Remarks,

The Bucyrus Forum of the 18th
instant, has some sensible remarks on
the duty of the members of the Dem.
ocra.ic party. The excitement insep-
cradle from the selection Of our dele.
gates to Charleston has well nigh dis
appeared, and very soon no vestigo Of
it will remain. Let MS oil prepare for
the contest which is rapidly coming
upon us, and be ready to meet cur OPP
'ponents and overthrow them. We
endorse every word in the extract from
the LOruna, which is as follows:
at is useless to disguise the fact
that we are on the eve of an important
struggle--a struggle which will re-
quire every Democrat to do his duty
to his country, and his God. To sue.
ceed in the next Presidential canvass
will require union, harmony, and per-
severing efforts on the part of all un-
flinching Democrats. These are the
times that try mems souls These
are the times to sacrifice personal an
imosities upou the altar of our coun.
try Nothing but this conciliatory
spirit will save the Democracy from
defeat.
at is high lime to practice concili.
alton and pave the way at once for
harmonious action in 1860. Let
everything be done for the cause
nothing for men. Let US commence
this good work Immediately. 1t can,
not be commenced too soon. Let the
time from now 70 the assembling Of
the Charleston Convention be occu.
pied by every Democrat in the culti-
vatiOn of good feeling and in collect.
ing information and posting the folks,
so as to meet the enemy at all points.
The Delegates to Charleston from
Ohio are chosen. There is therefore
no occasion for further chickering's on
this point. Let every Democrat then
prepare himself for the great contest
by storing his mind historical facts,
and political data, and thus armed in
the paEoply of intellectual truth, We
shall march on, as heretofore, con.
quering and to conquer.

Conversational.

Congress has yet failed to elect a
Speaker. We, too, are inclined to be-
lievc that this "Opposition" party has
some secret reason operating upon
them which is not for the public good.
Read the following article from the
o. &dteSmdn:
"a special dispatch to the Circin-
natl Commercial states that the South
Americans contemplate voting for
Gov. Corwin for Speaker, and thus
force an organization by compelling
the Republicans to unite with them in
that move, which, the dispatch says,
many Of the Republicans will not do.
Why not9 Is not Gov. Corwin good
enough Republican, Did he not toll,
and labor, and sweat during the last
campaign in Ohio, to promote the
success of the Republican partyl II
the South Americans do 60 in for
Corwin and the Republicans do not
join them, it will satisfy the country
that there is some secret reason oper-
ating upon them in Sherman's behalf,
which is not consistent with the pub.
lie good"
This Corwin move has suggested to
the mind of some most sapient Repub-
lican the iGea OF voting by ballot for
Speaker. Anything to dodge the le
sponsibility the Opposition have bro t
upon themselves. We can well imag.
Inc that Republicans could be induced
to 60 over to the Democracy if they
could do 1t in secresy, under ballot,
Bnt we prefer to see an open vote to
triumph by such means.

The .Irrepressible Con1ict. ;

In another part of our paper will be
found an account of the workings Of
the ''irrepressible conflict" doctrine,
which is being practically illustrated
in Canada. We refer to late negro
disturbances in Chatham, and the ef.
forts of the negroes to obtain control of
the public schools, which were taken
possession ofby several hundred arm
ed negroes, who, asserting their rights
as defined by their abolition brethren,
Seward, Giddings & Co., declared
themselves aS good as the whites, if
not a little better, and demanded ad.
mission to the schools, although al.
lowed schools and teachers to them.
selves, and that they should be allow.
ed to participate in the management
thereof. Various outrages of most
brutal character were also committed
in the neighborhood of the above
named place. Should the people sus-
tain the political demagogues who are
now agitatiug the negro question, we
would ere long have such scenes en-
acted in our midst as are now being
enacted in Canada.

The Republicans and DisuniOn :
A Traitor in the New York Legislature

On the 10th day of December last
a meeting Of the citizens OF Peterbo-
ro', Madison County, New York, was
held at the Presbyterian Church, in
that village. 1t was q meeting called
to sympathze with John Brown and
his traitorous gang, some of whom
were to be executed on that day in
Virginia. A series of the most VIC.
lent and extravagant resolutions were
passed some Of which were as follows:
"G. ReSOlved, That the terror which
at this time fills the slaveholding
States Of this Union, in consequence
of the affair at IIarper's Ferry, is, in
our opinion, well grounded; that the
laws Of Nature,o outraged in the practice
of holding immortal men as chattel
slaves, must be expected, sooner or
later, to bring to the slave holder a
fearful retribution; nor do we wonder
that the cupOf trembling is at this
hour presented to the lips of the op.
pressor by the God of the oppressed.
"S. ReSol0,d, That principle, as
well as policy, indicates to the friends
OF Freedom to employ only the appro
pirate weapons Of moral and political
warfare against slavery, until the az
gressions Of the foes of Freedom shall
compel them to meet force by force:
and then it will be their duty to rise
as one man and march to victory,
bearing aloft on their banLers that
watchword so terrible to tyfants-
Liberty or DeahP

OF Freedom throughout the Union, in
order to secure a protective organiza.
ton, which shall be to the cause OF
Freedom nOW what the order of the
Sons Of Liberty in the days of the
Revolution was to the cause of Free.
dom then, a shield to the friends and
an army with banners to the foes of
Freedom.
80. Whereas, the dissolution of
the present, imperfect and inglorious
Union between the free and slave
States would result in the overthrow
ofslayery, and the consequent forma-
tion of moro perfect and glorious
Union, without the incubus ofsIavery,
therefore,
"ReSolred, That we invite free
correspondence with the Disunlonists
Of the South in order to devise the
most suitable way and means to Sc.
cure the consummation so devoutly 10
be wished for"

the ninth resolution, was the Pres.
dent of the meeting. lie is a leading

The Lawrence Slaughter.

1t appears that some of the stock
holders in the Pemberton Mills were
fully aware that the building was un'
safe, yet they made no effort to secure
its safety. Then it is quite clearto us
that they are murderers. Not COM
mon. respectable. gentlemanly mur-
derers, who merely kill off a half.doz.
en- men or so, but cold ,blooded whole
sale murderers. We have read ex-
tensively OF this most lrighttul affair,
and can take no other view Of it. We
would not have these fellows hung,
nor consigned to the penitentiary Tor
life even. They should be hacked to
pieces with dull hatchets. The more
culpable of them should be shut up
with mad dogs. These miscroants'
tongues should be pulled ont by the
roots. Their eyes should be dug out
with monkey-wrenches. They should
be made to drink molten lead and Sit
on red hot gridirons. Who that has
read of this appalling heartless Slaugh-
ter--of the hearths and homes made
desolate torever-of the fair brave
girls and honest, hard-working men 80
untimely and horribly sent from the
worldwide that has read Of all this in
the newspfints Of the day shall say we
write extravagantly?
Let us hope these Pemberton Mills
men are unequalled in deeply black
villainy by the proprietors Of other
cotton mills in New England, yet we
merely utter plain, disgraceful truth
when we say that the most Of them
are sordid and so1less wretches. We
hear a great deal, and something too
much Of the cruelty and wickedness
of negro slavery in the southern por-
tion Of these United States; yet there
is not one STAKEHOLDER in five hundred
who holds so despOtie a rein over his
negroes as do the cotton lords Of pi.
ouS New England over their employ
es. They are bell'd from bed, bell'd
to the mill, bell'd home, bell'd every
where. They must do their employ
ers' bidding, in all respects, like dogs.
Body, heart, soul and brains, they be-
long to the lords of cotton.
Why not indict and thy these Penn,

posed of twelve bowling A1acha In

nounce them guilty Of murder most
