sECRssION HNTR1CJEs IN MshECo

The European Journals received last night
make special mention of the departure from
France Of re-eniorcements for the invading army
in Mexico. The report is of the highest signif-
cance. These soldiers, fresh from the healthy
regions of Provence and Lorraine, are not sent
abroad to rot in the plague.stricken citades of
the Mexican coast That calamity was care
fully provided against in the preliminary treaty
Of Soledad, which placed at the di'posal of the
allied army the high and healthy grounds around
Orizaba and Tcbuacan. The new accession to
the French Contingent will arrive when the
season of coast.feyers shall have opened
with its accustomed yirulence. But it is for
the interior, and not for the coast, the troops
are required. The French operators have work
ia store for them, which the Conference,
opened yesterday at Orzaba, is not expected
to finish.
Along with this intelligence We receive,
through private sources, assurances which we
are not permitted to doubt, that the French
Minister in Mexico, NJ. Saligny, is hand-and-
glove with the emisssry of the Rebel States,
Col. Pickett NJ. Salgny is also said to be
on terms of close intimacy with Benjamin.
likewise of traitorous notoriety; and it is
asserted in well.iniormed quarters that ugly
compacts have already been conjured up by
these conspirators against the Mexican Repub-
lie and the interests Of this country.
Jecker's ffty-two millions worth of bonds
are worthless as rags. unless Saligny can CON-
pass the overthrow Of the present constitu-
tional form of Government, at least in the
capital; and should such a change occur, the
new Government will be made up Of material
hostile to our own, and actively favorable to.
ward the Rebels of the South. If our Minister
ut Mexico fails TO sec this, the State Depart
ment, we believe, is not blind TO the danger.
In the latter conviction there is therefore as
much room for hope-as there 10 room for
congratulation-in the fact that our Govern.
ment, from the first, refused to be dragged
into the entaDgng alliance by the insidious
overtures Of the invaders.

TIE WAR TAX AND TsIE RECI
PROCITx TREATY.

IL tho report OF Mr. T.. 6. Spaudngs speech
on the Reciprocity convention, he is represented
~ having shown that 1000, 900 OF revenue is
annually sacrificed by the partial and unfair
working Of the treaty; that tho imposition Of
the war tax will enable the Canadian exporter
of produce TO ,indersell us in our own markets,
md that a tax ought to be imposed on such
produce at our frontier ports. Mr.. Spauld-
ing" it is added, before quitting the floor
announced his purpose to apply to the
" President TO terminate the treaty;" and the
House, we arc assured received with mere
dulity tho statement that the convention
could not be abrogated by a six months
notice.
Agreeing az We do most fully with Mr.
Spauding as to the practical disadvantage at
which our exporters have stood under the ope.
ration of the treaty, we are yet unable to ac-
cept bis conclusions, that tho necessity which
the war has created for tax on our home
produce is itself logical aud sufficient reason
for the annulmcnt Of the convention. even if
wo had tho power to do so. And there must
be some error in representing the House as in
credulous Of what every business man in the
Northern and Western States IL perfectly
aware. that neither party to the treaty of 1854
has the power to nbridgs its term vr modify
ito provisions. until it expires by ellux of time
Passing this, however, va would suggest to
those who attempt to deal with this question
whether it is not well to bo practical, in sub.
hitting propositions on the subject. An appeal
to the President against national covenant
docs not strike us as being practical. The
faith of tho nation was pledged in 1854 to u
ten-years' compact with the British Govern.
ment for the admission free Of duty Of certain
products Of the neighboring Provinces. As
parties to that compact. the United States
have not. from the first, been gamers; and
of recent years, the necessities OF the Canadian
revenue. or the protectionist policy OF the local
administration, have caused al increa,s In the

THE MACKLEY CONTRACT.

1t would be good thing for tho taxpayers
of New-York, who now pay roundly for having
their streets kept clean, without getting any
thing like what they bargained for, il the mo-
ton for perpetual injunction, aud the appoint
ment Of Receiver, now pending before Mr..
Justice Barnard, of the Supreme Court, against
Hackey, Hope. 4 Co., were granted. BUT we
fear that no such good fortune is in store. Argu'
ment was to have been had yesterday upon the
motion, but the parties, by consent postponed II
until Saturday. by that time, however, ]"
may be settled OUT of Court. Mr.. DAVIS, the
complainant, claims that, though he is part

owner of tho contract. be can got none q IL
proceeds. tho others pocksting all the cab.
1t may not be generally known that Mr.
Davis il an agent Of the Hon. BENJAMIN
Wood. How the latter came by his large IN.
terest in this contract is already know,
to the public. His brother Fernando, Will.
Mayor, sat in his Office one evening tin Ists
hour, without his dinner, in bis zeal to sin
the contract which was to give our citzsus
clean streets. Grateful for this kindness.
Messrs. Hacklcy e. Hope gave his brother, ths
Hon. Benjamin Wood, One:fourth of the COO.
tract as a gratuity, and we presume that 10
has till recently received bis share as clean q
it came out Of the City Treasury, without
risking a dime or spending dollar in the
public service. But wisdom cometh BY expo.
rience. Messrs. Hackley, Hope & Co., mind.
full of the fact that the late Mayor 10 no longer
potent, and repenting them of their hasty libsr.
atty, have stopped the supplies, concluding.
very sensitiy, that the friendship Of tho
brother was rather too costly. Thereupoa
the latter resolves to have revenge by breaking
the contract, and thus the contest stands.
There is an old and homsly adage which via
irresstibly suggest itself in relation TO this
quarrel; let US hope that the sequel will prove
ita truth
