THE CAPTURE OF SANTA FE.

The st. Louis Republican announces the recent
arrival of an express at Fort Leayenworth from
New Mexico, bringing the gratifying news Of the
entrance of Gen. KEARNEY into Santa Fe without
the firing of gun or any opposition from the Mex
leans whatever. This occurred on the 18th of Au-
gust, and the entire department formally taken
possession of in the name of the United States.
We have neither time nor space to give in to-day's
paper the particulars, which are detailed at much
length in the Republican.
1t would seem that Governor ARMIJo had actually
four thousand men at his command, but very badly
armed and that, though his troops left for the place
appointed as the battle-ground, when he got there
council of his officers was called, and much to his
satisfaction" they refused to fight Very az
ter this, Governor ARMDo turned his head towards
Chihuahua, followed by few Dragons
General kEARNEY, il was supposed, would leave
force of two thousand men in Santa Fe, and march,
in a short time, to California with like number.
Ii appears by letter in the Republican that,
after leaving Fort Bent most of the ammunition
wagons of the artillery were forced 10 put in oxen
instead of the other animals that the oxen had also
given out and it was with great difficulty the oxen
proceeded onward. Several hundred horses and
mules were left behind the army, unable TO follow.
The latest date is letter of the oath August,
which says:
con tomorrow body Of troops will march towards Al,

TRADE WITH MEXICO.

An examination Of the statistics Of trade with Mexico
will show falling of in the amount of exports to that
country which will asonsh while may instruct of
readers Formerly our exports to that country large,
but within the years that trade has regularly declined
until the value Of exports Mexico in s45 less than
one eighth of their value in 1885.
This important falling of in the value of export trade TO
Mexico ascrbabe altogether the policy pursued by the
Locoloco administrations of Government towards that

Had Government been wisely administered, Mexico
would have had of complaint and export trade
with her instead Of falling off, would in all probability, have

of Mexico in relation this trade and has denounced
the determinations which, goaded resentment she has
made against it. We do think surprising that Mexico,
