Ratification of the Mexican Treaty.
The Washington Union confirms the telegraphic statement that the deliberations of the Senate on Tuesday, in regard to our relations with Mexico, resulted in recommending to the President the project of a treaty which settles all the pending questions of difficulty between the two governments, if it shall be ratified by them. The terms of treaty are not specified with certainty, but the understanding is that the Mesilla Valley difficulty is arranged, the boundary so fixed as to authorize an eligible route for a railroad, the abrogation of the 11th article of the treaty of Hidalgo and the recognition of an interoceanic transit-way granted in February, 1853, over the isthmus of Tehuantepec; for all of which our Government pays to Mexico ten million of dollars.
