To the people of this al untry, nnder God, now and hereafter, are its destinies committed ; and we want no foreign H>tt cr to interrogate us, treaty in hand, and to i; jV w jjy haw you done this, or why have you | el V undone that ? Our own dignity, and "the of national Independence, unite to ■H such a proposition. Hut there is another important consideration, vhie'i ought not to be lost sight of, in the inves- ot the subject The question that pre- s,~nt-' ipcll’is not a question of tlvo. increase, i>v,t Vtlio diffusion of slavery. Whether its sphere |h> stationary or progressive, its amount will be the same. Hie rejection of this restriction will not add one to the class of servitude, nor will its ive freedom to a single being who is I tlierein. The same numbers will t» t *spread over greater territory; and so far as foni |,rcy>ion, with less abundance of the neces- wr it>iof life, is an evil, so far will that evil be jiitotod bv transporting slaves to a new coun- fr V ami giving tlp‘in a larger space to occupy | sav tins in the event of the extension of slavery over any new acquisition. But can it there! This may well be doubted. Al! ihe descriptions which reach ns of tho con- diuon of California and of New Mexico, to the 3 qiiidtion of which our etiorts seem at present uira-te I, unite in representing these countries as agricultural regions similar, in their products to ,Kir middle States, and generally unfit for the jrri-at staples, which can alone render slave la- ir.r valuable.

Baker, ar rived hero at a late hour last night from Vera Cruz, bringing the highly important intelligence of the final ratification of tiie treaty. r rhe important news was brought to Vera Criiz by the English Courier, on the afternoon of the 28th ult. and the Hetzel was ordered to sea on the morning of the 29th, with despatches for the Government at Washington and the depart ments in this city. The English Courier, it was said, started direct from Queretaro for ' era Cruz immediately after the ratification, which accounts for his arriving there before Maj. Graham, the bearer of despatches for our Government, who had first to go to Headquar ters at the city of Mexico. Maj. Graham was, howeyer, hourly, expected at Vera Cruz with the ratified treaty when tho steamer Hetzel left and one of the naval steamers of the squadron was ordered to be held in readiness to convey him to this city or Mobile, on his arrival at Ve ra Cruz. We anxiously look for tho next arrival, to bring us our despatches and letters from‘Mus tang,’which ' will be interesting as descriptive of the closing seem s in the eventful drama. Gen. Kearny (says the Free American of the 28th ult.) is ordered to the command in the city of Mexico, in place of Gen. Smith, who is to superintend the embarkation of the troops. Gen. Patterson, it was said, would come down to Vera Cruz with Gen. Smith. Great uneasiness was felt in the city of Mex ico with' regard to the menacing attitude lately assumed by the Indians, whose cries of‘Death to the Whites—Long Live the Indians!’ were were heard at a recent bullfight on the Plaza. A train of wagons, escorted by Lieut. Stead’s Company, left Vera Cruz on the 28th ult, for Jalapa. They were wagons sent up to trans port to Vera Cruz the sick and discharged sol diers who are now at Jala pa. The Hetzel, on the 1st inst, 7 P. M., spoke the steamship Portland, hound for Vera Cruz. The following is the list of passengers by the Hetzel: Lieut. E. Wright, 1st Bog. Mich Vols.; Lieut .1. Pierce, do.; Midshipman W. H. Maftitt, U. 8. N.; John E. Miner, Indv nud child; Mr. J. L. Taylor and Mr. J. Hull. N KW-On LEANS, } Sunday Morning, June 4, 9 o’clock.) Our despatches from “Mustang” have just been received, up to seven o’clock on the night of tho 26rh ult, from the city of Mexico, fully confirming the above. The final vote on the Treaty was taken in the donate at Queretaro at so rnuqh opposition in the. Senate as it did in the Chamber of Deputies. I enclose to you the letters of my Queretaro Correspondent, Gen. Smith left for; Vera Cruz oh tho 24th, to make,preparations for embarking the troops. All the outposts have been ordered in to this city—they will be ready to march in three days after r they arrive, which will be in a day or two. Gen. Patterson’s Division being the first to move wall march in two or three days. In ten days or less all the American army will be on their march for the coast. Wc will be hampered some with our .sick, but this cannot be helped, as it - would not do to leave those behind who are unable to travel. Messrs. Sevier and Clifford left here for Queretaro with an Araermab escort on the 22d. at 7 o’clock. The exchange of ratifications will take place iu Queretaro. The Commis sioners have full power to exchange there or here. Of course the citizens of New Orleans will fire a grand salute. Give my compliments to them, and ask them to fire a gun for every reg iment in the field, regular and volunteer, they will all soon be among you—you will thon see the boys who ‘have been baptised in blood and came out steel’—they havo ‘conquered a peace’ at the point of the bayonet, and for the sake of humanity and justice, let them revel one night in the Halls of the White Settlements, before send them down to Yucatan to be eaten up with mosquitoes and sand flies. It is expected the ratifications will be ex changed to-day, the 26th instant The withdrawal of the troops will be in the following order: 1st.—Gen. Patterson’s division; 2d.r—Gen. Marshall’s Divisions; 3d.—Division new ten giments; 4th.—2d Division of old regulars under Gen. Kearny: 5th.-—First Division of old regulars—Gen. Worth. Wc have 2000 sick to take away with us— this will cut short our transportation for the well.

It was put to vote in the Senate on the -_oth, at 3 o’clock. The vote stood 33 for, and 4 against It. It was reported by the Chiarman ofthe Committee on Foreign Relations, on the 22a, arid the debate was continued by. several mein-, here up to the hour of, 4s being put on ltj pas sage.

The New York True Sun, an able Demo cratic journal of the right stripe, publishes the resolutions with the comments which precede them, as follows: \\ r e have tho most heartfelt pleasure in lay ing before our readers the proceedings of the Democratic Republican Central Committee, which met. last eveuing at the Old YVigwam. It will be seen that the democracy of New York city are once more united on the old platform, and present a solid phalanx for the coming fight. Those factionists who have looked to our city in the expectation of seeing any portion of her tried and true democracy- falter in the path of duty, have met with the disappointment they deserve. New York is true; and we have now no hesitation in pre dicting that the Empire city will roll up in November next the strongest majority given for many years for the democratic nominees. YVe ought, perhaps, to state, for the informa tion of our democratic friends, that this meeting of the committee was a special one called for the purpose of arranging a meeting to receive a report of the Utica delegates, and that a propo sition to that effect was signally defeated; and the forcible aud patriotic resolutions which we publish this morning, \yere- adopted by the de cisive vote given in the proceedings. Demociiatic Republican- General Com mittee.—At a regular meeting of the Demo cratic Republican General Committee, held at Tammany Hall, on Tuesday evening, May 30, the following resolutions, offered by John B. Raskin, of the 8th ward, were adopted ; , Resolved, That we disapprove of the action of the Democratic National Convention, in not determining properly the question which was submitted to it, growing.out of the unfortunate divisions which have existed in this State. Resolved, Thai in sending delegates to said Convention, tee recognised its authority to decide questions submitted lo it; and ice are bound, consequently, as good democrats, to submit to the determinations it has made, and to the course of lion which, in its judgment, was deemed best.

Resolved, That burying all dissensions, we invite all true democrats; who love the great principles of the party, and who adhere to its usages and nominations, to meet iri the Park on Monday, the 12th of June, at 4 o’clock in the afternoon, to respond to the nominations of the illustrious hero and statesman, Lewis Cass, for the office of President of the United States, and of the gallant William O.
