Important. :;K tim o :.
It was currently reported at Washington last
week, that a treaty had been concluded between
the American Commissioners and Lord Ashbur
ton, which settled all the agitating difficulties be
tween the two countries. The treaty is said to
provide, first, That Great Britain shall give up the
right of search, and the U. States is to use all
her exertions to suppress the Slave Trade. Sec
ondly? That the Maine Boundary line is settled,
by concessions highly advantageous to this coun
try. On Saturday, however, it was reported that
Lord Ashburton had received orders from his gov
ernment to conclude no treaty unless the govern
ment of the United States would assume the debts
of the several Stales of the Union, or at least
so much of them as is owing to subjects of the
Biitish crown. If this is true, it will probably
break oft all further negociations, and leave all
the questions open as before".
The Tariff aiad Congress.
Congress has been busy, since the Veto of Cap
tain Tyler, in framing another Tariff Bill, which
will meet the wants of the government and give
protection to our home industry. It is uncertain

he was always found at his post, devoted to the

which this day is celebrated become universal
throughout our land, and our country be redeem

which it is plunged by intemperance.
By John iVL Heller. The pledge of total ab

age, like the declaration of Independence, the
ground work of our liberties, is the true princi
ple of temperance and its only sheet-anchor.

two thousand walked in the procession, among
whom were the ladies of the Martha Washington
Temperance Society, of that place. Their two
excellent military companies escorted them thro'
the streets, and to the orchard opposite the Bor
ough, where in all there were not less than four
thousand persons of both sexes assembled. Mr.
Henry A. Fay, of New York, delivered the Ora
tion, and all the exercises of the occasion passed
off in an admirable manner.

We lp.arn that the arrangements for "Camp
Delaware" at Easton, are progressing in a satis
factory manner. General George Cadwalader, of
Philadelphia, has accepted an invitation to become
t'je Commander; and Major General Patterson,
one to be present with his staff to Review the j
troops. Among other companies who have al
ready signified their intention to be present, are
the Washington Blues, and the Philadelphia
Grays, from the City.

Has been in Session, again five weeks, and as
Vet done nothing of general intetcst. They have
j lenty of private matters before them, upon which
t'isy agree very well; but as soon as one house
pars? a Bill -of more than common importance,
the other is sure to amend it in every provision.
And if ever, by accident they agree upon some
thing good, then the Governor rises up and kills
it oil with his Veto. They had better adjourn at
Dnce.jfor, they .can accomplish no good.

There were no less than four political dinners
n Philadelphia, on the 4th. The "Corporal's
Guard' or friends of Captain Tyler, dined at
McAran's Cards::, and by means of free tickets,
&c. mustered about MQ, The LocoToco's pro
per, dined some where in Mavamcnsing, and num

who c;ill themselves the "Incorruptible Demo
crats," liined at a tavern in Kensington. The
Whigs had by far the largest party of the wholp,
-m'l celebrated the day in an appropriate and spir
ited manner at the Ma.-sumc Hall. Mr. Morehcad,
T. S. Senator from Kentucky, was present, and
made a very eloquent speech. Other distinguished
Whigs also addressed the assemblage.

right.
4tlx July celebration al 2a!Cord.
The anniversary of our Independence was
ushered in by the firing of a national salute. A
procession was formed in front of John Corne
lius Hotel, at 10 o clock, winch, under the di-
Marshal of the
church, where,
after the customary exercises of the day, the
audience were entertained with an excellent
oration by Doct. Alexander Linn, together with
some splendid music by the Milford Brass Band.
After lhe benediction was pronounced, the pro
cession was re-formed and marched to the Ho
tel of John Cornelious, where a large number
set down to a most sumptuous dinner, and to all
appearances seemed to enjoy themselves much,
whilst feeding their faces.
Afier the table was cleared and a liberal sup
ply of lemonade provided, the loast lablc was
formed by choosing the Hon. Oliver S. Dim
mick, President, and the Hon. Win. Brodhead,
Vice President, when the following regular and
volunteer toasts were drank.
REGULAR TOASTS.
1. The dav we celebrate.
2. The departed heroes of the Revolution.
May their descendants honour their virtues, and
imitate their example.
3. The survivors of the Revolution. May
the remnant of the band of patriois never have
occasion to complain of the ingratitude of their
country.
. 4. Our country, her people, and her institu
tions. 5. Universal suffrage and the sovereignty of
the people. The only true basis of govern
ment ud without which, no stale or nation
possesses the features of a republic.
6. Our gallant Armv and Navy. The orna
ment and bulwark of our liberty
hih minded and patriotic Governor of Penn
sylvania; his enemies, lhe purse proud arisfo
craiic hankers, and swindlers, have been unsuc
cessful iu their late attempts to injure his char
acter. . By Walter A. Colony. The ladies of the
Milford Fair. May ihey be liberally patron
ized this day, and may they in the distribution
of their funds, show forth the chief of all vir
tues, charity.
By 13. A. Biddis. Henry Clay. A true
democrat and patriot. When he retired from
his public services, his enemies and calumnia
tors could not but acknowledge his patriotism
and worth. '
By John Brodhead. General Samuel Hous
ton. Here's that he may pull Santa Anna's
mustaches.
By Henry S. Mott. The Reader of the dec
laration of Independence.
By O. S. Dimmlck. James Buchanan and
Richard M. Johnson. One the talented son of
Pennsylvania, the other the hero of the Thames,
both favorites of lhe democracy of the union,
either would make a good President.
By O. H. Molt. James Buchanan. One of
lhe brightest stars in the democratic phalanx.
May the wishes of his friends be realized iii his
elevation lo the highest office in the gift of the
people.
By Milton Dimmitk. Richard M. Johnson.
The statesman and a hero. His Sunday mail
report is evidence of the former and his heroic
conduct at the buttle of the Thames evinces the
latter, and justly entitles hiin lo the Presidency.
By Henry Barne?. The President and Con
gress of the United Siaies. We rejoice al the
interest they are now manifesting in the cause
of temperance. Let the enemy be driven from
the Capitol, so ihat the nation mdy not be rob
bed of its brightest jewels.
After dinner, the ladies commenced their
Fair at the Academy, and disposed of nearly all
their night caps, and fancy articles, together
with a largo number of letters, many of which
were well written, and full of fun. The weath
er was delightful, and nothing transpired to mar
the festivities of the dav.
The harvest in Virginia is over, and the
crops are superior to those of the last five or
six years.
The Hon. Samuel G. Goodrich was, on Fri
day, nominated by lhe Whig Convention, as
sembled at Med way, Mass., as a candidate for
I Representative in Congress, to fill lhe vacancy
occasioned bv lhe death of the Hon. Win. S.

Ai sumu'.r partus, yivon at houses of
-entertainment, the dainties provided are often
furnished wiih great labor and expense and
are)iineipally recommended by the difficulty
of procuring them. A German traveller who
visited Pek'm, says that a favorite dish in that
city is roasted icn, which is enormously dear,
as very few cooks possess ihe skill and dexter
iiy requiied for its preparation. A lump of ice
is taken upon a sieve, and afier being envel
oped in aort of paste made of sugar, eggs and
spices, is plunged into a pan full of boiling pork
fai or lard. The grand poiiU ia then to serve
it up beforo the ice has time to molt; What
may be the peculiar attraction of this dainty
difeh, it would be hard to say, for though frozen
inside it burns lhe mcuth v.'heu, first tabled.'
