    LATE FROM EUROPE.
PEACE TREATY SIGNED !
Dated from Europe are lo ilio 6ih of April.
Trace was sio.ncS a? Paris on Si'ndav,
The 30th of March. The event uai on-
nounced in Pann nnd London by mUoi of
irtillory. Taris was illuminated, and in
England the church bolls were pealed.
Tliree or f ur week mutt elapio ere rutifi
cationi of the treaty can be exchanged
Detail of adjustment are referred to a
Commission. The great event of Peace
hat swallowed up all minor subjects of
Dewi.
j The British Admiralty tinve lent two
iteamera la search of the Pacific. The
Allies have commenced the demolition of
the inclosure around Sevastopol, Ihmnc
Pasha ia increasing the army of Anatolia
Gen. MouravicflT has received reinforce'
tnonts by way of lite Caspian Sea and Tif-
lis. The city of Parma and the surround
ing country has been laid under a state of
siege on account of the number of asasi
nations. Mr. Buchanan was to lea.ee for
New York on the 9th April, after fimt vis
Ml)g Taria nnd the Ilajuo. Walter Savage
Landor has addressed an appeul lo The
London Timet in behalf of Louis Kossuth,
who he declares to be in the utmost want.
Kossuth has declared himself greatly mor.
lifted at its publication. There is no ex
citement whatever in England with regard
to tbe difficulties with this country. A ro
view of 100,000 men is to bo held at Paris
n the signing of the Treaty. It is ru
mored that the Emperors of Russia and
Austria have respectively promised to visit
Tans soon after the conclusion of pence.
Napoleon is going lo send an expedition lo
Colon io Madagascar. Very bad feeling is
exhibited by Russia and Prussia towards
Austria. The Queen of Spain has per
formed tho annunl ceremony of washing
the feet of the poor. So ulsu has the Em
peror of Austria.
The Paris correspondent of the London
Post writes:
"If we make up accounts, perhaps ihe
contract in in favor of Russia, to whom
more has been given up ihun she lias re
nounced. Such a result ia naturally the
case, because it was rcverthe intention of
England and Franco to punish 'Muscovite
aggression with conquest involving loss of
territory, or permanent occupation. '
Accounts irom uronstact assert that a
squadron was ordered to be got ready for
the middle of May, but for what purpose
was not publicity known. It was rumored
that Us object was to convey the Emperor of
Russia and one of his brothers on a visit to
France and England. " This report was
strengthened by the fact that orders had
been given to engage plluis well acquainted
with the coasts of both those countries.
A Brussels journal says that tho coro
nation of the Czar will take place about the
Slst of August, and wiih great pomp.
Advices from the Crimen state that tho
xvca'her had become so intensely cold that
the troops found it absolutely necessary to.
shut themselves up in I heir tents mid huts.
It may be confidently expected thai the
j-ear 1837 will be far advanced before the
last man and lliel.tst cargo of shells can pass
tho Dardanelles on their way homeward.
Nor is any haste necessary in cunpleiing
the evacuation. Tho allies have accumu
lated largo stores, and assembled a great ar
my for the defunse of Turkey, and I litre is
no reason that they should incur iho ex
pense of new transports and a greater em
ployment of labor, in order lo hurry back
vith such speed as may gratify the desire
of those whom ihey savod to be quickly
rjrl of them. Tho presence of the Western
forces ' in tho Cast is only a question of
months.
The details connected With the Danubian
Principalities and the liberties of Ihe Chris
tian subjects of the Porto, are the points
to bo arranged in the renewed Conveners.
The Porto objects to any occupation of
Turkey by the allied forces, and it is possi
ble that the point will bo waived, if the
Powers are satisfied as to tho safety nnd
privileges of the Christians. If. the return
, home of the allied armies is performed leis
urely, the feeling in official quarters is that
a sufficient force will remain for many
teMtu t ke?,n fanaticism in check. It
grows confirmed ifct the situation of Italy
svill form a subject of delioi'R'ion SeMre
the Conference dissolves.
The Emperof of Russia, in an imperial
manifesto, proclaims peace, "the object of
the war having been gained by the security
acquired for the privileges of Christians
In the East." To avoid future collision,
It is added, a fresh frontier line for Bessa
rabia has been conceded.
Advices from Berlin, of March 31, says :
Our Berlin papers begin to talk openly of
the marriage of Prince Frederick William
with the Princess Royal of England. fne
Trince will visit England at ilia conclusion
trf the spring revfews, and will return, it is
hoped, an Accepted suitor.
Accounts hare, at Trieste, March 30,
licen received of the death of Sir Charles
Hotham, Governor of Victoria.
. Trieste advices, same date, say: Many
of the Japanese nobles perished in the late
earthquake at Jeddo. The Emperor was
a red.
The plenipotentiaries, in tigning the
treaty of peace, made use of a silver-gilt
Inkstand specially ordered for the occasion.
Tho inkfctnnd is decorated in tbe s'yle of
1'ie first empire, and cost not less than

Miss Feltetl oi Mcarugua.
Mis Pellc.it, a lady who from travel in
and acquaintance with the leaders of the
present regenerating movements in Nica
ragua, is wi II qualified for the labor, de
livered an ad lress at Lyceum Hall, last eve
ning, concerning that country, which was
very respcclubly attended.
After giving a rapid but succinct sketch
of the lii.-tory of that country since 1823,
staling that hardly any two years had pas
sed without a revolution, the lady described
Gen. Walker movrmen's somewhat in
detail : agreeing fully with our published
account, and allowing that instead of an
invasion, tho whole affair was but those-
c ptance of an offer from the more woalthy
and intelligent class of people, residents
there. The advance of the army j its re
ception at various points ; the character of
the people, and their friendly feelings to
wards the existing order of things, were
clearly limned. Alpiding to the political
state of aflairs, tbe lady observed that Gen
Walker's government had been acknow
edg. d by the Catholio clergy and was a
fixed fact. The country is quirt and old
feuds have been healed. As fifty-six men
initialed tho movement in tha't country, it is
prolmUe ihe thousands now there and tend
ing thither, will he able lo mnintain it.
Presidi'iit Pierce's message had no unfavor
able effect nor will have.
Tho chief object of popular interest is tli
arrival of steamships which usually bring
reinforcements of strong, stalwart men,
suitod ton country's regeneration. Allutl-
ng lo the complications with other Central
American States, and Costa Ilica especial
ly, they wore not considered at all danger
ous. Walker needs American Assistance
to develop the country, but its government
is established. Somo speculations as to
what the land will bo when its Jack sons and
Clays mount t lie s'agc, and a greater civili
zation is attained, closed ihe very agree
able and instructive discnurse, which was
warmly applauded. New Orleans Cres

MOVEMENTS OF COL. VAUGHN AN U GEN. HAR
NEY THB INDIAN TRADERS.
Correspondence (Feb. 36, of Tbe Nebrnskian.
Chinking that a few notes from Camp
Desolation would not be unacceptable lo
le benighted denizens of the lower regions,
I take advantage of the outgoing mail to
commnnicate them, although I have noi
much of news to write. In fact, we are
too far away from nowhere (close by where
it tie empties into nothing, you know,) to
get any news. We did get the President's
Message by last mail, and also the Nelrat-
ian, for which we aro duly thankful.
Col. Vaughn, Indian Agent, arrived
here on the 3d inst., from Ft. Clark. lie
eft there about the 28th Dec., ' and came
down in the coldest time, thermometer 36
deg. below zero. Me said he left at that
inie because he was afraid to remain long
er, and says that he is prepared to hear of
the Fort being burnt up at any time. This
does Co' look like peace very much.- In
fact, some more of .hose devils must be
whipped. Meanwhile, nbont ten of the sev
eral bands who have got a "big scare" on
them, are now waitirg for the grand Coun
cil of Peace or War, H come off on the 1st
of March proximo. The Platte, Brule,
Winneconges and Ogelales, and one other
fragment, the ones who so groaly insulted
the agent, Vaughn, last Summer and Fall
are not here, nor will they be present.
Of course, therefore, they will be fit sub
jects for ano;her Summer's operations.
Gen. Harney returned here from L'eau
qui Court on the 15th inst., having been
absent sixty days. He walked all the way
down and back went down on snow two
feet deep, and back on ice total distance
about 490 miles ! This, in the dead of
Winter, with mercury 34 deg. below zero,
is no trifle. It is said that Gen. Harney
found the squadron down at L'eau qui
Court in such a ''used-up" state that it
eoufJ not go on down to Sioux river this
Winter, as was contemplate;!, bat '.t will go
on ice breaking on.
The Indian traders have ootdonoa rery
heavy business this year ro far in fact,
f f! or z'&h, tni CcJ kco it i ti r.
they should cesae to exist. Millions on
millions of dollars have been made by
traders amongst these Indians, which is the
causoof all their present troubles, poverty
and crime. For two pints of common sugar
lby purchase a bulfi.lo robe! and other
skins and p. Itrles at like rates, either in
sugar, coffee, tobacco, powder and ball, ic.
thus holding out inducements lo ihe Indians
10 kill hundreds of thoutondt of buffaloes
every year, merely for iho robes, casting
away the meat, Or else selling it, too, to
these same traders for a trifle, who cure It,
and sell it back to the Indians at ono thou
sand per cent, advance. In this way ihe
buffalo which would have lasted for centu
ries are fast becoming ex'.inct, and, ergo,
the Indians must tlttrve.
Sulh are some of the evils of permitting
traders to carry on traffic amongst Indians,
Other evils exist full as great, and worse
in a political apecl, by filling up tho Iron
tiers with a band of half breed, Canadian
French, renegade "Native Amcricaus," al
together making a kind of Salmngun boa
tile to peace, virtue, industry, or even any'
thing honest or praise wort liyJn the pursuits
of life. And from such the poor Indian
gets his instructions, his schooling nnd ad
vice. Strang develmx-meets may yei tic
mailo in tlii respect in this region of the
frontier.

To too Votori or Clackamas County.
As I have been preventcf, by other en
gagemenls, from visiting the different pro
cincts, miico my nomination as a Whiff can,
didato for the Legislature, I must address
you in this manner.
My political belief and qualifications
nrr, i presume, wen Known in you. 1 am
heartily opposed to ihe party in iiowpr in
i . . ii i .
Oregon, because I believe its leaders aro
selfish and unprincipled, and its measures
are a disgrace and a curse lo any free pco.
pie. Even a war for the protection of our
h resides and families is denounced, if any
one ia allowed 10 shoulder a rifle, who will
not mil down and worship the image set up
by this faction. No man of their own faith
can hold office unless he obeys litem, but if
lie dares to be independent in doing his du
ty, lie is declared to bo no better than
Win;, ana must ho removed. The
Legislature was alibol on freedom ; in
ance oi law it made otlices tor its mergers,
nod gloried in putting knaves or fools in
placea that had been filled with faithful,
honest, and capable men, becauso the last
would not be its tools. Ihe members from
your own county suited ihe ruling spirits,
one of whom said, "They were just the
mon for us J they never said a word, but
always voted as we told them. All such
democracy I am against, and if elected I
shall do my utmost in behalf of the pros.
perily of the Territory nnd our county; no
adcr of the Taction shall boast that Clack
amas w ill sustain them in whatever they
do. Tho question of a prohibitory liquor
aw I proposo lo Irnvo to the people, be
causo until public sentiment approves tho
principle, tho passage of a law that eannot
be enforced is worse than useless.
Of my opponents, I only remark that
heir greatest misfortune ia ihnt they bear
tho indorsement of ofiice-holders in this
citv, whose praise "ought to bo a reproach,
and whoso influence without office would
bo as ridiculous as their self-conceit.
Fcllow-citizcns, if you trust me as your
representative, you may bo assured of my
faithful and earnest efforts in your behalf ;
all the ability. I have shall be exerted for
the advancement of Oregon interests, with
out regard to party, nnd least of all for
any party that does not "carry tho fla and
koep step to Iho music of the Union."
11 you make, a dillerent choice I shall bo
content, thou;h I cannot but believe that
you will before ninny years bo satisfied
with Iho tyranny nnd abuse of those who
claim to be your masters.
