RATIFICATION TO BE PROMPT.

Washington. Dec. 19.-It is hoped in
the senate that the peace treaty will be
taken up for discussion early in jan

favorable to the result is growing. y
few senators manifest a disposition to
debate the treaty at length. and some
profess unalterable opposition, but the
feeling is so strong against an extra
session and in favor of the postpone

into our possession that it now seems
that even the minority will consent to
the treaty's ratification without ma
