M.K:KSViLtE. June 13, 1848
Gentlemen- Your communicntion informing me of
my nomination as the Vhig Candidate to represent this
Senatorial District in the next Legislature, has been re
ceived. I could wish that vour choice for so responsi
ble a post had fallen upon some abler soldier in our
ranks. But trustini! in the goodness of our cause re-
Ratificalion of the Treaty by the Senate
rV Vote: 33 to 4
We published fast 'eek thn news of
the Rnt ification crth Treaty hy the Mex
ican Chnmherof Deputies, hyj a. vote of
51 to 35. We nohave the gratification
of statin0:, that it hail Keen ratitietl by the
tenate, by a vote of 33 to 4!!l We con
gratulate the country oh a speedy resto
ration of reace.
The IJ. S. steamer Hetzel, arrived at
New Orleans late on Saturday night from
Vera Cruz, hringingthc ratification of the
adoption of the Treaty in the Senate, hy
a vote ol 33 veas to 4 navs- being w I most
unanimous. This vote wasiaken at,3 o'
clock P. M. on the 25:h of May.
MajorGrahnm was hourly expected at
Vera Cruz with the ratitied treaty when
I he steamer Httzel left, and one ot the na
val steamers of trie squadron was order
ed lo he held in readiness to convey him
to N. O. or Mobile, on his arrival at Vera
Cruz.
The English Courier, it was stated,
started direct from Queretaro for Vera
Cruz immediatelv after the ratihcation.
Gen. Kearnev (savsthe Free American
of the 28th ult..) is ordered to; command
in the city of Mexico, in place of Gen.
Smith, who is lo superintend the emhar
kation ol the troops, ben. ratlerson, it
was said, would come down to Vera Cruz
with Gen. Smith.
Great uneasiness was felt in ihe city of
Mexico with regard to ihe menacing atti
tude lately assumed hy the Indians, whose
cries of death to the whites long live
the Indians P were heard at a recent bull
fight in the Plaza.
A train of wagons, escorted hy Lieut.
Stead's company, left Vera Cruz on the
28th ult. for Jala pa. They were wagons
sent up to transport to Vera CrUz the sick
and disabled soldiers who arc now at J a
lapa. City of Mexico, May 25. 1843.
Ens. Delta : The 'officers and others who
had been sentenced lo4e hanged on to day have
been respited by (.Jen. Butler, by a special or
der f the following substance :
The sentence of death, which has been
passed upon persons by Courts of the American
Army, whether Americans or Mexicans, is
hereby suspended until further orders."
T am not aware what has influenced the com
manding officer in suspending the sentence of
death upon the oflirrers for the murder and bur
glary at No. 5. Calle de la Pabna, liut really it
does seem to many a very strange proceeding,
and has surprised the community generally.
1 hey were undoubtedly guilty of one of the
grossest outrages ever perpetrated upon society,
and have to some extent, siigiiMsizd the corps
and the Army to which they belonged, which
could only have been wiped otit by blood, in a
manner sanctioned by ihe laws of he couuliy
under which lhy hold commissions. Their
trial was fair and impartial, and I have no hesi
tation in saying, that ihe Commission who tried
and sentenced iheni, was the most able 1 have
seen convened in the Army.
The good citizens of Queretaro are going to
give our Commissioners ti giand ball.
The exchange of ratifications was to take
place to-day.
Gen. Arista is to be the Governor here when
the Mexican Government takes op its quarters
here. I expect lo see all the Mexican authori
ties here this week coming in.
The Commissioners, Messrs. Sevrer and
Clifford arrived at Queretaro at 4 o'clock, yes-lerday.
