Wasiiinoton, Feb. 12, 1854. There is much talk concerning the M*-iican treaty, but we cannot yet say, as w*s said us the Gtladaloupe treaty, when that whs under consid eration in the Senate, “wo all know what the treaty is.” Hut wo soon will know, for we shall have it. as I learn, through the Mexican news i pn|ter, hv the next arrival, unless by sonic aeci [ j dent we get it before, as has been usual. There ! are ninny minors, also in regard to the atnciid ,j ments recommended by thcKsccutive to thetrea il. ] have reason to believe that they are of 1 little practical ini|>ortuiicc, and that they do not relate to or in any way atteet tho Tehuantepec question, or tlie iiideiuuity secured to American claimants. Tho agitation of the slavery oiiestioti, ns con nected with tho Kansas and Nebraska bill, np le-nrs to be tnrronsing in tho Northern States, hut still there is reason to lielieve that n major ity of the Northern people, la>tlt democrats and wliigs, are willing to leave the siitdcctof slavery ill tno territories hereafter to be formed to tho inhabitant* themselves. Those who have, so far, i prompted the agitation, are also hostile to all compromises, and es|iecia)ly so to tho fugitive slave Inw, which was a principal feature of the I compromise of 1850. The crowded galleries of the Senate chamber to-day were indicative of the intcicsttaken in the discussion of tho 1 touglashill. Mr. Weller made a stirring and forcible s|Mch in support ot the measure, ntid of the principle of nonintervention. • General Houston will follow^ to-morrow. Among the diplomatic nominations not hi re-, tofoie Inßeti up in the Senate, is that of Gen. | Gadsden, as Minister to Mexico. It was proba bly taken up and confirmed in the executive ses sion to-day. The subject of n new tariff will soon occupy the attention of Congress. The secretary of the Treasury has submitted his project to tin; com mittee of ways and means of the House, but it has not yet Wen considered by tliat committee. The project is similar, in its main features, to that which the Secretary proposed in his re port. Tho present is a suitable time for making a permanent mid satisfactory tariff, because it is no longer a subject of party ootitcst. If the commit tee cannot procure nil tho information hero that may ho desirable, in regard to somedetnils, they can easily obtain it by a visit of a tew week; to. thu Northern commercial cities. The tariff of 184(1 was niadc ohiotly under the vigilant super intendence of an outsider, Mr. Geo. I Lvight.Avho j impressed his own views upon the committee, I and made some mistakes, too, which ,wcre | corrected by legislation, or treasury decisions. | lon. The Gadsden Troaty Provisions. Washington, Feb. l:t, — The following are the principal provisions of Mr. Gadsden’s treaty now before the Senate. Ist. The new boundary commences two -nut- j rino leagues north of the mouth of the Colorado : giving us no access to tho Gulfoft'alifornia, and 1 goes between latitude thirty-one and thirty-two to the one hundred and eleventh dvgree of lon gitude west of Greenwich. 2d. It abrogates tlie 11th atticlo of the treaty I of Gaud,dupe Hidalgo, and cancels all claims of j Mexican citizens under that article.to date of rat ification. 3d. The United Slab s pay fifteen million of dollars in (monthly instalments of three millions each—the first payable on ratifying the treaty. 4th. Reserves nvg millions for claims of Amer ican citizens in Mexico, including the Garay grant. ‘• sth. llotli Governments agree to put down Filliliusterism, and pursue the Filibusters with army and navy into the other’s territory. oth. Agrees to refund goods and chattels sto len by Indian’s front citizens of the other’s coun try. The President Amends No. 5 by ssriking out the pursuit by land and sea into the other’s ter ritory, and ho amends, No. 4 by not mentioning nn v particular claim. The amendments are very important.. The “treaty will bo ratified in its new form. X. Terrible Scene at a Shipwreck. The Liverpool papers furnish full accounts of the wreck of the ship Tavleur, on the Irish coast, at the Island of Lantby, on the Hist of January, having 020 souls on hoard, of whom near 400 were lost. One of the passengers saved thus de scribes the scene: A raft was constructed, on which great num bers of persons embarked, but it was drifted against the rocks and upset., when all on it per ished. A rope was then convoyed on shore by one of the swimmers, and about one hundred at tempted to gain the rocks by clinging to it, when the vessel suddenly fell over on her side, which slackened one Cud of the rone and caused the en tire of them to letgo their hold. The whole of them were drowued. - The Captain, whose name was Noble, was saved, but the only part of his dress that he landed in was a flannel shirt. The surgeon of the ship, who had his wife and child on board, attempted.to swim to shore with his child on h back, and supporting bis lady with one arm, and swam with Hw other; the three, however, unfortunately perished* One lady had £3OOO in bank notes sewed up ft-b#r stays; she offer*-’ £2OOO to any one who womlMgßl'heF life, bn* in vain.—Klin also was dsowbed. —A child of five mouths old is saved, and tftth pW'j ents are drowned.

He lias ever ’ bad u strong bias in favor of our seaboard city, and !on the occasion of bis first visit those little cour tesics w hich the Ji/iirnril has extended to him. can not fail to be highly gratifying.

J j Steam Mill Burnt. p* We regret to learn that the Steam saw Mill of I Mr. John McDonough, was entirely consumed by ! fire, on the evening of the loth iast. The Mill ! was situated about 15 miles from Griffin, at t'ue end of the plank rojid, and was one of tlie princi , plo reliances of our citizens for lumber. The loss will full very heavily upon Mr. McDonough, who has but lately rebuilt the mills, which were pre viously dost roved by fire. We trust that the citi zens of Griffin will extend all the aid in their pow er to mitigate as much as possible this misfortune of a worthy and much respected fellow citizen. 4 Marshall College.

A person who can thus permit I his zeal for tlie cause of temperance to overstep i the bounds of moderation and justice, is an enc ■my to the best interests of that cause. A man who would blast the reputation of an entire com- I inunity in order to givo point to an argument against the liquor trafic, and who, by implication, charges tho city authorities with stimulating in temperance and fostering a “den ot drunkenness,. | is pos-essed of more temerity than discretion— more zeal than candor.

Nay.

North lati tude, westwardly across the Arkansas, across the north fork of Canadian, to hortbsastern an gle of Texas “, then follow the northeastern boun dary of Texas to the western limit of New Jdet ieo; then proceed along that line to its northern termination; then again turn westwardly, and follow tlie northern line of New Mexico to the crest of the Rocky mountains; then ascend northwardly along the crest of that mountain range to the Hue which separates the United States from the British Possessions in North America, on tlie 49th parallel of North latitude; then pursue yonr course eastwardly along that line to the White Earth River, which fails into the Missouri from the North ; descend that river to its confluence with the Missouri ; de scend the Missouri along the Western boundary of Minesota, of low a, of Missouri, to the point where it ceases to be a boundary line, and enters the State to which it gives its name ; then con tinue vour southward course along *he western limit of the State to the point from which you set out.
