VIRGINIA SENATOR.

We have for some time past. observed a dis.
guised and concealed movement at Richmond. to
defeat the reelection Of Mr.. Tyler to the Sc
nate. Occasionally communication appears in
the Enquirer, calculated to excite suspicion as
" Mr.. ryler's fidelity to "the party''-and now
and then, it is gravely asserted through the same
channel that the times much out OF joint that
such man as Mr.. Randolph is sadly wanted IN
the Senate! We now learn somewhat to our sur
pr Sc, that it is the design Of someto use Mr..
P. p. Barbour, to effect Mr.. Tyier's removal
We do not believe that Judge Barbour will con-
sent that his name should be employed on the &C.
casion. At any rate, we are sure he ought not
to permit it. MIR. Tyler is an able and indus
trious representative Of his native state and we
should be sorry to see him supplanted through
party intrigue Indeed we look forward with
confidence to the return Of Mr.. ~ Ter by the Lee
sslature.

FoM-We have no material change to notice
in prices this week. Most kinds are nominal, no
sales Of any moment having come to our know
ledge during the week. The stock Of Western

one for the season. Holders are generally dis
posed to sell, but as there is no demand for ex-
port, the sales are confined to supply the city
consumption. Rye Flour has declined little.
and the demand is very limited. The stock,
however, is small. The following are the pre-
