The policy adopted five years ago by this administration, of paving the annuity to the heads of families, and rot to the Chiefs, is both just and pro per. It not only shields the poor Indi nnsfrom impositions of dishonest Chiefs, but enables the President to detect dis

pressive it was tor a poor Indian to tra Tel flitv miles to receive fiftv cent when the Chiefs could bring thetntheii money without cost, as was the castunder former administrations. The honorable Senator is mistaken as to the facts. There is no law directing in what manner the annuity shall be paid; it is.
as it should be, left to the President.
and the mode complained of is the oi:li just one. It is the duty of the agents to count the money due to each indivi dual, or head of a family, and to show each man what he is entitled to foi
himself, his w ife, and each child, and not snfler the Chiefs to cheat them out of a portion cf the money due from the Government. It is true, that if all tin vhiefi w ere honest, this would change the case. Sir, said Mr. T., I have heard of Ko.s, the memorialist; his name and

portant. It appears that the report received by the last arrival, that there
was a prospect of a speedy arrangement between the contending parties in Portugal, was without foundation. rm a-

Mthat the treaty of the quadruple alli

iconfirms this information. The intelli.
gence received by the last packet from Lisbon states that the government of Don Pedro had likewise sanctioned the treaty by its ratification. The Spanish army is, therefore, now acting in conformity with the stipulations of the convention. From France there is nothing of interest.
