Treaty with France.-We have the satisfaction to state, that a Commercial Treaty, made on terms perfectly reciprocal, was duly signed and ratified on the 24th instant, by Mr. Adams, Secretary of State, on the part of the United States, and Baron Hyde de Neuville on the part of France. In conformity with an act of Congress passed for that purpose, the President has issued a proclamation, suspending the imposition of a discriminating duty on French vessels.

Our trade with France is now unrestricted, and we learn that some of our enterprising merchants have already made arrangements to establish a line of first rate vessels between this port and Havre.
