would despatch business, and come !n a
decision in regard to the treaty in a ve
ry few days after coming together.
FR sx QUERETARo.-A private ex

we learn that he Gav-rnm.nt t Qti.

herause the question had been rai-d
whether the Federal Government had
the right t..' d- any-t5t'te or notior. of
a State without the consont of such State.
The states of Mexico generalv go in tor~th

YUCATAN-CONCLUSION OF
A TREA' Y OF PEACE.
By the arrival of the Yucatan scho'n
er ApearecitIa, Capt. Espinola, ne ite
in possession of late and interesting in.
telhhgenev from Yucatia, which will af
frid much pleasure to those who have
been latnentig the troubles that have
occurred on that coast. The A pateci
da left Campuachay on t e -d test. and
Si-al on the 11:h, and brings its date's
ro-n Merida of the 29th ilt. The re
ports c'ained i the papers and the
verbal infeirnation furnished our re-pur
tnt by Capt. Esjinola;~ are someiwhaet a'
vmtiance, and we are a little at a ltoss to
reconcile the.ni. "L (I Unon," ot Ma
rid ., of the 24th of A pril, pulish's a
treaty of peCii- con~chadedl on the 19 hi
of April, at Z'tracial, by commiris~ioness
appointed1 by Sr D. Mligu- I Baracha
to, Governor of Yucatan :end Coamemis
sioners appeointed by D. Jacin o Pa1,
comme ender-in-chief of the revolted in
dians, and ratifi, d by both parties ont the
23 1 of Atptil at Ti-cul.
Capt E~pinola-repot ts, however, th:1t
on the day skae left S5sl, r~ews w-as re
ceived to thle effect that Pat wi'h his
forces were within eight leagues ol Ma
rida, f-rm which lie jmudged that tran
gtoihty had notl been re-tored, but that
hcstilities had-again been renewed. It
was qtnite probable that Pat's forces
wete remaining in the vieinity of Mari,
dae until the terms. of thme tunamy we're
cmptliedI with and itn accordance with
the 9th article. Capt. E. also reports
that about twenty-eight vessels frott dif
ferenut nations were off the coaest, rem'eV
ing the inhatibitants of Yucatan to Can
peachy. We strongly itncline to thme he
ief that the treaty concluded the diffi
culties, as the inhurgentts seem to have
had every thing that they desited grant
ed to them by tiie commissioners.
