ART. XIX. With respect to all merchandise, effects, and property whatsoever, imported into ports of Mexico while in the occupation of the forces of the United States, whether by citizens of either Republic, or by citizens or subjects of any neutral nation, the following rules shall be observed: ART.

All merchandise, effects, and property described in the two rules foregoing, shall, during their continuance at the place of importation, and upon their leaving such place for the interior, be exempt from all duty, tax, or impost of every kind, under whatsoever title or denomination. Nor shall they be there subjected to any charge whatsoever upon the sale thereof. 4. All merchandise, effects, and property described in the first and second rules, which shall have been removed to any place in the interior while such place was in the occupation of the forces of the United States, shall, during their continnance therein, be exempt from all tax upon the sale or consumption thereof, and from every kind of impost or contribution, under whatsoever title or denomination. 5. But if any merchandise, effects, or property, described in the first and second rnles, shall be removed to any place not occupied at the time by the forces of the United States, they shall, upon their introdution into such place, or upon their sale or consumption there, be subject to the same duties which, under the Mexican laws, they would be required to pay in such cases if they had been imported in time of peace, through the maritime custom-houses, and had there paid the duties conformably with the Mexican Tariff. 6. The owners of all merchandise, effects, or property described in the first and second rules, and existing in any port of Mexico, shall have the right to re-ship the same, exempt from all tax, impost, or contribution whatever. With respect to the metals or other property, exported from any Mexican port while in the occupation of the forces of the United States, and previously to the restoration of the custom-house at such port, no person shall be required by the Mexican authorities, whether general or State, to pay any tax, duty, or contribution upon any such exportation, or in any manner to account for the same to the said authorities. ART. XX. Through consideration for the interests of Commerce generally, it is agreed that if less than sixty days should elapsed between the date of the signature of this Treaty and the restoration of the custom-houses, conformably with the stipulation in the third article, in such case all ernment of that which deems itself aggrieved shall have maturely considered, in the spirit of peace and good neighborship, whether it would not be better that such difference should be settled by the arbitration of Commissioners-appointed on each side, or by that of a friendly nation; and, should such course be proposed by either party, it shall be acceded to by the other, unless deemed by it altogether incompatible with the nature of the difference or the circumstances of the case. ART. XXII. If (which is not to be expected, and which God forbid!) war should unhappily break out between the two Republics, they do now, with a view to such calamity, solemnly pledge themselves to each other and to the world, to observe the following rules-absolutely, where the nature of the subject permits, and as closely as possible in all cases where such absolute observance shall be impossible: 1. The merchants of either Republic then residing in the other shall be allowed to remain twelve months, (for those dwelling in the interior, and six months for those dwelling at the seaports.) to collect their debts and settle their affairs; during which periods they shall enjoy the same protection, and be on the same footing in all respects, as the citizens or subjects of the most friendly nations; and, at the expiration thereof, or at any time before, they shall have full liberty to depart, carrying off all their effects without molestation or hindrance; conforming therein to the same laws which the citizens or subjects of the most friendly nations are required to conform to. Upon the entrance of the armies of either nation into the Territories of the other, women and children, ecclesiastics, scholars of every faculty, cultivators of the earth, merchants, artisans, manufacturers and fishermen, unarmed, and inhabiting unfortified towns, villages, or places, and in general all persons whose occupations are for the common subsistence and benefit of mankind, shall be allowed to continue their respective employments unmolested in their per sons. Nor shall their houses or goods be burnt, or otherwise destroyed, nor their cattle taken, nor their fields wasted, by the armed force into whose power, by the events of war, they may happen to fall; but if the.necessity arise to take anything from them for the use of such armed force, the same shall be paid for at an equitable price. All churches, hospitals, schools, colleges, libraries, and other establishments for charitable and beneficent purposes, shall be respected, and all persons connected with the same protected in the discharge of their duties and the pursuit of their vocations.

In order that the fate of prisoners of war may be alleviated, all such practices as those of sending them into distant, inclement, or unwholesome districts, or crowding them into close and noxious places, shall be studiously avoided. They shall not be confined in dungeons, prisonships, or prisons; nor be put in irons, or bound, or otherwise restrained in the use of their limbs.

So swift is Bain's Chemical Telegraph in its operation, that it will record accurately the whole The Land Office Report of Dec., 1848, mentions of President Polk's Message of Dec. 7, 1848, at that the public domain lies in 12 States, and in the a number of places or stations, agreed upon, in a Territories, and covers 1,584,243,000 acres, of line of 1,000 miles, more or less, within an hour or which 142,026,003 have been sold.

During 1847, the land sales were 2,521,305 acres, also 1,448,240 acres in first 9 months of 1848. Mexican land warrants have been located on 1.775,520 acres; Mexican war warrants have been issued for 6,505.960 acres. to send the same Message, by the O'Rielly and Rogers lines, from Baltimore to the editors in St Louis, Cleveland, Louisville, Pittsburg, &c., and even at that it was a most surprising feat. When the types are set, it requires but a few minutes to throw off many copies of a newspaper or pamphlet; when a message is prepared by punching a number of small holes through long strips of paper, united ribbon-like, it can be sent along the wires at the rate of a newspaper column Ohio was a wilderness 50 years since, having a of reading matter in three minutes!

Within the last twelvemonth, Henry O'Rielly and his associates have completed about 2,000 miles of electric telegraph, and Amos Kendall, S. F. B. Morse, and their coadjutore, nearly 1,500 more, aside from lines previously constructed by both parties. On almost all these lines, the electro-magnetic system of telegraphing, of which Dr. Charles T. Jackson, Mr. Morse, Professor Steinhiel and others, claim to have been the inventors, is in use; although a company between New-York and Philadelphia employs successfully the instrument invented by Professor House, which prints messages in Roman characters of Pica size, quite distinctly. The latest, and it is a wonderful improvement upon all the others, is the instrument bnade by Alexander Bain. and direct their correspondents at the proper terminus to choose a confidential person or persons to transcribe the despatches from the telegraph record. A swift compositor can set over 6,000 ems, or 18,000 letters per 16 hours; Bain's messages can be prepared still quicker by one person; and where hasie is requisite, dispatches can be divided among a number, like the takes in setting up a President's Message, or Treasury Report, in a news office. Without interfering with the Post Office Department, an analogous system might be established throughout the Union, based on electricity; but the Government shonld have no more to do with it than to protect it in its fair and lawfull operations. Bain's instrument will probably give occupation to many thousands of persons before long; and, aided by phonography, abbreviations, a cypher, &c., an incalculable amount of business will be transacted by its means, at rates far below present prices.

THE imports, exports, revenue, &c, during the fiscal year, ending June 30, 1848, were as follow: Imports into the United States, foreign produce, and merchandize, value $154,977,866, of which, to the value of $21,128,010 were exported, leaving for domestic use, articles value $183,849,866-Exports from the U.

Borrowing, to be paid out of the blood and sweat of the pioneer of the west, is very easy, in the estimation of this corrupt instru ment of the slavocracy; paying the troops, he tells us, is very laborious work. In May last, Messrs. Polk and Marcy wanted to send an army to Oregon to fight the Indians. In December, the President explains the origin of the quarrel thus: "A few thousand dollars in suitable presents, as a compensation for the country which had been taken possession of by our citizens, would have satisfied the Indians and prevented the war. small amount properly distributed, it is confidently believed, would soon restore quiet." In other words, the whites had seized upon the Indian hunting grounds, dispossessed the owners, and paid them nothing. Such was the cause of Semiuole and other wars with Indians, prior to 1848. Mr. Cave Johnson's report of Dec. 2, 1848. shows, that during the year, up to July last, the gross revenue from postages ainounted to $4,371,077, being more than was annually received under the old rates, and $425,184 above last year's income. The year's expenditures, including $100,500 paid for services of Bremen steamers, amounted to $4,198.845; thus leaving a surplus of profits on the conveyance of letters, &c. The mail routes were 163,208 miles in extent. Mr. Johnson recommends a five cents uniform postage rate on half ounce letters; 2 cents for paid and 4 for unpaid would be infinitely better, with postmasters elected by the people. The cost of transporting the mails, during 1847-8, was $584,192, paid to railroad companies; $262,019 to steamboat own ers; $54.063 to "agencies connected therewith;" $796,992 for transportation in coaches; and $751,500 when by other modes; foreign muil service, $100,500. There were 4,017 mail contractors, 248 mail agents, 16,159 post-offices and postmasters, and of the latter 4,121 had been appointed within Mr.Polk states that the national debt, on July the year; 1,309 new offices had been opened, and 6, 1848, amounted to $65,778,450, of which he says 296 old ones stopped. The letter postage of 1817-8 half a million has been since paid.

Messrs. Polk and Walkers estimate of U.

These arrangements are made apparently with a view to leave large sums of borrowed money on call in the hands of favored institutions, agents, officers, &c, as before the war, while the country is taxed to pay the interest. There was famine in Europe in 1847, which enabled the U. S. to sell grain and provisions there, at high prices, value $60.701.221; this drain of treasure from Europe inade our money market easy.
