A FIGHT AMONG THE NEGRoEs.-The Courier
du HaUre of the 18th ult., gives an account of a
fight among the sailors on board the American ship
Scotland, and who were all negroes. The origin Of
the quarrel is not known, but for nearly an hour
they were fighting like wild beasts, and all were
furious. They were stripped to the waist, and al
though no weapons were used but heads and fists,
many were seriously injured. The fight was only
ended Ly the total inability of the combatauts to
continue it any longer. The weakest were lying
bleeding all over the wharf, and the strongest were
too tired to strike another blow. The spectators
tried to interfere but found it of use, when the
officers of justice arrived, they as usual, were too
Iate-there was nothing to do but to take care of
the Mnundeh.

ordered to pursue the murderers and they will prob
ably be retained in the service until the u. s ORA
goons reach that section The settlers are greatly
eXasperated that the Government has been dsband-
ed most OF the ranging companies, and left the
frontier entirely exposed to Indian depredations.
The Corpus Christi Star of the Sd instant, has
the following news from Mazapi:
A person recently from Mazapil, in the Depart
ment of Zacatecas, represents every thing quiet in
that section There had been no recent incursions
of Indians either the borders of that State or in
Durango. In a short time small party of traders
were to start for the Rio Grande, with the view of
asceraning the most feasible point for their trade.
Our informant thinks Laredo will be the point Sc
leCted and of course the depot at Corpus Christi.
In times past the traders from Durango and Laca-
tecas wont to go to Chihuahua for their goods
and IN fact are doing so even at this day, which
having been brought some fifteen or sixteen nun
bred miles over land were sold TO them at exorbi-
tant prices. Then, when the transportation Is adj
ded to Zacatecas or Durango, of $50 or 4CJ miles,
it is not strange that they should seek new point
at which to make purchases.
From Laredo to some points IN Zacatecas 1t is as
near as it is from chihuahua to Zacatecas; and by
purchasing goods from that point the trader will
not only save the enormous carriage to Chihuahua,
but by buying them the American side of the
river he will also save the enormous duties which
are added to the price of the articles in Chihuahua
