The Tripertfts Treaty. We copy from the Philadelphia Laken a ma aim synopsis of Mr. Everett's letter en the tripar- Sitotreaty.: In speaking of it the Ledger says: 6 4 0na of the most able State moors which we 'Zane seen for a long time, is the letter of Mr. Ever ett to the British and French Ministers upon the propositions of their respective governments for a Ilipartite treaty. It covers the whole ground of ar gument in the case, and in the most courteous tone, is abooloh.ly scor ching, scathing, withering in its ._11121114 One point is the letter is, that neithcr Brit. ala nor Prance can have an equal interest with the quitel States in the ownership of Cuba, fur it 'operated from them by the Atlantic Ocean, while it Is directly upon the coast of the United States, and in a geographical p saition of great importance to them. He shrewdly asks what the Government of France or Britain would think, were Cuba at the mouth of thefleine or the Thamsa, if the United States should propose to them a tripartite treaty to secure it-for ever to Spain? Another point is, that whatever may have been the territorial relations of Europe with the American Continent, they have al seedy, in the progress oteventes greatly diminished, and are destined, under the same progress, to cease eatirely; and hence that the United Sates cannot bind themselves to maintain forevever an exist:tit relation between an European nation and one of its American colonies, which time must extinguish.— To illustrate this, he refers to the extensive empire which France once held an this continent, and the still more extensive empire of Spain, both now ex- Meet; and alto to the extensive empire of Britain, how confined to the region north of the St. Lill ' 11 , . MCC, He else refers to the mighty progress of the United States since their revolution, as an indi cation of the progress, development and extension whisk must necessarily be their destiny. Antrher Point is, that European nations cannot have the same interest in the destiny of Cuba with the Uni ted States, because they, notwithstanding the ex tinction of their once mighty American empires, are nearly in the same fixed and stable condition as when those empires began, while the Iluitvd States have risen, in much less time, from a few imsttered colonial settlements, to a powerful nation, with all the elements of indefinite extension, by means en tirely consistent with the peace, happiness and pro gress of human society. Hence, while a treaty to maintain indefinitely an existing state of things may be consistent with the fixed condition and in terests of European nation, it is 'entirely inconsist ent with the continual progressii\and expansive condition of the United States. To,illustrate this, he refers to the i \ reat acquisi tions of territory by the United States, ky fair pur chase. or lawful conqu3st in j Ist wars since the commencement of. the present century, and to the great tide of European emigration which ikows to theta, lured by the vreat advantages preser — • Afterican institutions, to apread over our those great territorial acquisitions. Anothi presented by this admirable letter is the cl of the American Constitution, which prevei inititotion from controlling the legislation or ,1.._ administrations, each of which must be governeJ by the exigencies, for the time, of a nation continu • ally progressive. Another point is that, al this Is. land und Porto Rico are the on!y remaining depen dencies of Spain, as that nation began to decline from the commencement of its American empire, and since the loss of its possessions on the Ameri can continent, has made rapid progress in renova tion, relinquishing this Island may be a part of its future policy; and if so, while the United States can never allow It to pass under-the dominion of any -other European power, they cannot bind themselves to other „European powers against an acquisition, which, on its separation from Spain, must be of groat value to them, as well from its geographical position, as from other circumstances. Ile Pays that, while the United States do not wait Cuba now, will never receive it from Spain through un fair means, and will never allow tit to be wrepted from her by any leant. they will want it whenever Spain, in the course of her future policy, is ready to relinquish it.. And he adds that such may be- COMO the policy of Spain, since the maintenance of her sway over the Island already costs, for her ar my and navy alone, 612,000,000, which exceeds her revenue from the Island, which is greater than the expenses of the United States, for both their ar my and navy; and since the commerce of Spain with the Island, should it be ceded to the United Statep, .would be far more profitable to her than her present dominion over it. He adds that, while the policy of the United States would forbid the purchase of tha Island now, this involves questions withwhich no European power has any legitimate concern.— Another point in this letter is the sound policy of the United States which forbids any entangling al liance, with Europe. This admirable letter is well fitted to mike the English statesmen who conceived this tripartite pro ject, wince a little at the difference between Amer ican and European policy, progress and political ethics. The British Government, whether covet ing Cabs or not, knows that the United States would loot allow it to become .British. Sensible of this and jealous of American ha tuls,• and hence their cud den regard for Spain! Mr. Everett understands them in Cubit as he does in Central America. We de not want Cutra . while it can be kept Spanish.— But we do want, and eventually shall have them through their own peaceful desire for the unien.— la the meantime, let us be jut to Spain, watch and restrain England; and have no entangling alliance= with Europe.
