WASHINGTON, March 16th.-There is a
disposition on the part of Republican SEN
ators to resent that part of the message of
the President accompanying the Chinese
treaty, which asks that it be made public
without delay. These Senators believe
that they are the best judges of the pro-
priety of making treaties and other Execu-

piece of gratuitous impertinence on the
part of the President to attempt to instruct
the Senate as to what is proper to be done
in a case of this kind.
The correspondence accompanying the
treaty is history of his negotiations in
connections with the treaty, full outline
of which was contained in the recent inter
view between his Secretary and your cor
