Many people imagine that, with a oossatbn ol hostil'ties. i husincMS would at onte resume its wonted channels, and everything go "'f as smoothly as before the war. This is unquestionably an erroneous belief. Were the war to end to-morrow, 't would be a considerable time, prob ably, before a treaty ot peace could be concluded, for it will be very difliefult to settle the terms of boundaries,' ter ritorial property, forts, Government plaeos, Jtc, &c. Our Pevolutionary war closed, so far a:i the fighting was concerned, with the capture of York town, Oct. 19th. 1781. Peaco was not proclaimed until 1783, and our ques tions aro moco intricate than those of that day. It may be that the interval f diplomacy will prove even longer than two years. The Murder of Capt.
