a nominee for the Presidency
gave rise to the most discordant discussions. A Cor
respondent of the "Philadelphia Bulletin," a neu
tral paper, gives a sketch of the scene, of which we
insert a portion for the special benefit of the u Stan
dard":
Mr. Inez, at one stage of themorning'rproceed
ings, was astride the balustrade, invoking, with
frantic gestures, all the cods in the political calen
dar, to.be heard, and Mr. Smith called Mr. Smith.

a very wroiny mooa, iigntened the wig upon bis head,
and made a desperate lurch at a pitcher of water
within his reach, to cool the 80 degrees Freinheit
reply that trembled upon his lips and notwith
standing the ugly insinuations that Mr. Somebody
else cast into the teeth'' of Mr. What-d'ye-call-hira,
and the eager efforts that Mr. What-d'ye-call-him
made to press through the crowd opposite to him,
in order to pull Mr. Somebody-else's nose notwith
standing all this, and much besides, independent of
side thrusts, such, as ' It is false !' 1 deny it !
'You are a 1 1 ; 'Knock bim down!' Turn him
out V He's an abolitionist !' Bahl bah P Hiss,
hiss !' 'Throw him out of the window,' Slc &c.
notwithstanding this, we repeat, for the third time,
the convention was unanimously pronounced a very
harmonious one !" 1
The same Correspondent represents that although
the Buchananites or "Buckites," as he more con
cisely calls them, carried the day in the nomination,
they were grievously outwitted in the appointment of
officers and other proceedings- The President, and
the nominee for Canal Commissioner, are both said
to be Cass men.
The famous Mr. Wilmot took his seat in the af
ternoon, but after the hot discussion was closed.
Monday morning, the war was renewed with ex
terminating, violence, in the business of appointing
the delegates. Messrs. Wm. Bigler and David B.
Wagoner were elected Senatorial Electors.
On Mr. Lowrs motion to proceed to the election
of Congressional Delegates, as reported by the Dis
trict Delegations, a hot discussion arose. A despatch
TL T t i a "

the Buchanan men declaring that they had been
Cheated on Saturday, and would not allow themselves
to be cheated a second time. Wilmot, Penniman,
Lowry. and others, spoke at some length. A motion
was made to postpone the resolution, which was lost
Ayes 62, Nays 64. The reports of the delegates
were then received."
A despatch in the "Bulletin," referring to the
debate, on Mr. Lowry's motion, says :
"The confusion and excitement at the present

Of political conventions. The Buchanan delegates
accuse their opponents of treachery and unfair deal
ing, and threaten to repudiate the whole proceedings.
The excitement on the question of resolving how to
admit each delegate and elector, has been intense
rhe Convention adjourned until 2 P. M., amid yells
and vociferations from the lobbies."
The "Bulletin" also gives the following despatch :

EPPES THE MURDERER.
This person, (says the "New Orleans Picayune.")
who, according to the confessions of other parties
murdered Mr. Mum, nearPetersburg, Virginia
about two years ago, has at length been arrested in
Texas, near the Falls of the Brazos. He was brought
to New Orleans in custody of B. J. Vaughan, who
we believe, is a Sheriff of Virginia, and was taken
over to Mobile, on his way to answer the ends of
of justice. The Galveston News of the 3d instant
gives the following narrative of the circumstances
which led to his arrest :
Under the name of Judge Shelby he came to Tex-

has carved his and their names upon the highest

Even in his short order he pays the following de

Commissioner of the United States, 6lc.
Article second stipulates that there shall; be an
Immediate "nn-'iion of hostilities between the ar
mies of the two Republics.
Article third defines the future boundary of the
United States. The line commences in the Gulf of
Mexico, three leagues from land ; thence runs up
the middle of the Rio Grande to its intersection with
the southern boundary of New Mexico ; thence a
long that southern boundary to the western bounda
ry of same ; thence north to the first branch of- the
Gila which it intersects ; thence down the middle of
that branch and of the river to the Colorado ; thence
it runs across westwardly, and strikes the Pacific at
a point one league south of San Diego. The free
navigation of the Gulf of California and of the river
Colorado, from the mouth of the. Gila to the Gulf,
is secured to the United States

In consideration of the extension of the boundary
of the United States, made by this Treaty, the Uni
ted Mates government stipulates to pay to Mexico
the sum of fifteen millions of dollars. In this sum
is included the three millions appropriated last ses
sion for the furtherance of peace, aud now subject
to Mr. Trist's order. This sum is to be paid to the
Mexican government immediately on the ratification
of the treaty. The remaining twelve millions are
to be paid in four annual instalments, bearing six
per cent, interest from the ratification of the treaty
by Mexico. No portion of this sum is to be trans
ferable. According to the article, the United States gov
ernment undertakes all claims of American citizens
against Mexico, both those alwjady decided, and
those still undecided the whole, however, not to
amount to more than three millions and a quarter of
dollars. ,
The Mexican archives found by us, after the ta
king possession of the ceded territory, are to be de
livered up. .
The treaty of commerce of 1831, between the two
Republic, is to be revived for the period of eight
years, and may afterwards be renewed at (he op
tion of both Governments.
The Custom Houses are to be restored to the
Mexican authorities as soon as the Treaty shall
have been ratified. Means are to be adopted for
settling the accounts.
The troops of the United States are to leave Mex
ico in three months after the ratification of the trea
ty, unless the sickly season should come on, in which
event they are to retire to some healthy situation,
and are to be furnished with supplies by the Mexi!
can government, on amicable terms.
The supplies which may arrive between the rati
fication of the treaty and the embarkation iof the
troops, are not to be subject to duty.
The treaty is to be ratified by the President and
senate, and to be exchanged within four months af
ter its ratification.
The boundary of New Mexico is to be defined as
commenced by the 1st of April

The Senate did not sit on March 13, having
on Friday night last, adjourned over to Tuesday.
In the House of Representatives, the Speaker
announced that the first business in order would
be the calling the States for resolutions, cominen.

resolutions were accordingly offered and appro

The House then adjourned.
In the Senate, on March 14, Mr. Ashley gave

a bill regulating the fees of officers of the Unt

Mr; Atherton, from committee, reported House

The latter bill was taken up, by special order,

The House resumed the consideration of the
message of the President, communicated some
weeks since, declining to give the information
requested as to the return of Santa Anna.
The question was on its reference.
Mr. Tompkins, of Mississippi, delivered his
views in opposition to the position assumed by
