NEW YoRK, Dec. 2l.-The Tribune learns
that among the papers transmitted on Thursday
TO the Senate, concerning Mexican affairs, was
the project of a treaty with Mexico, the provi-
sions of which are of such importance that it is
even thought il would, if confirmed, lead to the
withdrawal of England and France from the
Spanish alliance.
Ut provides that our Government shall pay III :
900 dollars to Mexico, to be applied to the
satisfaction of English and French creditors, and
for grant to the United States of commercial
privileges, the adjustment of our outstanding
debts, and the right of transit across Mexican
territory for troops and munitions of war.
IL is thought that the treaty will be speedily
confirmed and sent at once to Vera Cruz.

BUSINESS AT THIS PoINr "A correspondent Of

Business In this city at this time is remarkable
and peculiar, and ons Of the most extraordinary
features in the history Of the commerce Of this
country; we have here a small town with no
the disbursements Of the Government, suddenly
becoming the centre Of an immense trade, and
the great disbursing point Of supplies for the
maintenance Of hundreds Of thousands Of soldiers
on both banks Of the Potomac. In addition to
this there 10 the resident and transient populaton
the latter seem TO be In sufficient numbers to pop
nlate city.
Merchants and manufacturers are coming daily
from every section Of the country-some with
samples, others establishing agencies and branch
houses for every description OF goods suitable for
the wants Of an army, the most prominent Of
which are boots and shoes, Woolen hosiery,
dried fruits, case goods, and the consumption Of
tobacco, segars and liquors, including the fnest
champagne, as the Cliquot, Mumm's, Hsidseck,
and the Bollinger, Is probably beyond all prece-
dent In this class Of merchandise.
Giles other than such a. are furnished by the gov
ernment IL carried on by the sutlers, who are the
merchants Of the army the wagons come into the
CITY fer supplies, which they obtain from the suit
lers, stores that H. jobbers Of goods consumed by
the army, Of which there are large numbers ap-
parently doing an active and prosperous business.
The suffers business 10 not carried on strictly on
paid OF, 20 that the credit system 10 inseparsbly
connected with trade. II exists here on short
time in full force and vigor, notwithstanding the
fatalities attendant upon the movements Of an
army.

CANADA THRRATKNINe TO INVADE MAINE
The Toronto Leader has heard the war news from
England, and INDUCES itself in the following:
"Ths Danger Not All 90 One Sids-In discuss
Ing the probabilities Of war, the northern journals
assume that Canada will be the only battle round.
Their towns bordering Upper Canada may suffer,
they admit, but they exclude from their calcula.
tons all consideration Of fighting other than on
Canadian soil. Undoubtedly the calamity would
he felt heavily In the frontier districts too heav.
ily 70 allow Of It's presence being treated as q
trifing thing. But Maine would feel 10 scarcely
less severely. With the British navy on the At
lantic coast, the occupation Of Portland would be
accomplished a. easily ~ the bombardment Of
New York or Boston and with Portland In British
hands there would be no dinculty In landing
regular troops, and occupying large part Of the
state; establishing q new line Of connection be-
tween the ocean and the Canada frontier, which
would be Of the highest importance in military
point Of view. After the first few weeks Maine
would be a. much battle ground a. any part Of
this province" ~. u -a.. ,E'.f.. = E
