ARRIVAL OF IMMIGRATIoN-We learn
from party who has lately arrived
from Walla Walla, that an immigrant
train of eighteen Wagons arrived at
WaIla Walla valley on 30th ult.
The train is composed Of persons from
Missouri, Arkansas and Iowa. They
report a large immigration OH the plains
this season, by far the largest portion
Of whom are on their way to California.
The largest part of the Oregon immi-
grafton expect to make their homes in
the Rogue River valley, in Southern
Oregon. The train experienced no
trouble from the Indians on the plains,
except the loss Of five horses, which
were supposed to have been stolen by
them. Most of tho families in the
train will winter at some point east Of
the Cascade mountains, and will next
Spring come into the Willamette
valley. They report very little sick
ness among the immigration this sea-
son. Another train was expected to
arrive Mt Walla Walla about tho 9Th
instant.-Adccrkisr.

The latest news from Mexico 10 Interesting.
On the 2lst Of November, Senior Zamaconns,
the Minister for Foreign Affairs, aud Sir Cbas.
Wyke, the British Envoy, subscribed to treaty
embracing the ultimatum of the British Gov.
ernment In reference to the financial difficulties
between the two countries. Il provides that the
sum still remaining due TO British subjects shall
be repaid, by an assignment made for that pur.
pose by the Mexican Government, corresponding
to ten per cent. of the import duties, to be TAX
en- out of that portion Of the additional duties
known as Majoras Materiales, with interest va
rying from elk to twelve per cent. on the vari-
Gus claims. All past treaties affecting British
interests shall remain binding. The British
consular agents at the different ports are en-.
titled to exact the production of custom house
papers and to have monthly statement of the
duties incurred, etc. A large number of other
particulars are provided for 70 the end Of max
iug the payment sure. Creditors OF any other
nation are denied any advantage not conceded
to the British The treaty coming before Cen
gress, IL was contended that the proposed Brit
ish interference In the custom houses would lead
to future difficulties. The money owed, Congress
was willing to pay, except the debts incurred by
Miramon and Zuloags. The measure was final.
ly defeated BY vote of seventy-fv to twenty
two. Zamaconna was much irritated at this
"isctious conduct as he styled It, and resign
ed bis place, Senior Echeverria being appointed
to fill the vacancy.
Zlmaoonns has since been arrested on suspi-
cion Of treason. The British Minister then re-
moved his ultimatum embracing demand for
the concession of the privileges enumerated
above. At last dates from Mexico (Nov, 29),
negotiations had been renewed, but 1t was not
believed that the demands Of England or
France would be acceded TO their full extent
Still Congress appeared willing TO grant any
thing except the exsctions In regard TO the Gus
tom Houses, on which point 1t was immoyable.
The demands Of France are somewhat similar
to those Of England, but not so sweeping.--
These the Mexican Government stood ready to
concede, varying only the phraseology This
variation France has refused to accept. As far
as Spain Is concerned, there is not the slightest
disposition to concede an iota. The Mexioans
are willing to fight and hope for aid from the
United States. The Department of the East
has been intrusted to Gen. Uraga. He Is now
at Jalapa with three thousand men. Another
portion of the army will be commanded by Gen.
Ortega. Mr. Corwin is exceedingly popular,
and had labored SO hard to preserve peace that
he became unwell, but Is now convalescent.-
Col John J. Ricketts,, the agent of the South
ern Confederacy, q noted bully and fllibuster,
recently attempted TO fog Union American in
the city of Mexico, for which he was arrested
and put In prison, pleading 10 no purpose for
