LATER FROM New MExIco-The following
New Mexican II erchants arrived in St. Louis on
the oath ult. Narciso Santiestebsau, Juan Nepo.
massno, Gutieres, Juan MaBaca, Simon GALLERIES,
Guseto Baca, Jose Ma Martinez, Jose Saazar, Y.
Otero These gentlemen left Santa Fe about the
first of May.
Fifteen companies of United States troops, under
command of Col. Monroe, were to leave New
Mexico on the 10th May, upon a campaign against
the Navajo Indians. Major Graham was to have
the command ofthe Dragons. Lieut. John Buford
had been appointed Quartermaster. This military
movement, if it should have no other effect. will
serve to give activity and energy to the army and
thus restore their heath which has been seriously
injured by the life of inactivity and confinement to
which they have been doomed.
An extra from the Santa Fe Gazette office, dated
the 26th ut., contains a few items of news:
The census of the Territory, taken by direction
of Governor Calhoun, presents this result: Entire
population, 56,9S4-Indians excepted. The ratio
of representation for the country is fixed for the
Council, at 1884 for the House, 2l72.
The list of appointments for New Mexico, made
at the close of the last Congress- had been received
by mail, and they were looking for their early ar.
rival.
Governor Calhoun, on the 23d April, issued his
proclamation for an election of members of the
Legislative Assembly, apportioning the number of
members of the Council and of the House among
the several counties, and directing the election to
be held on the 18th instant; the Assembly 20
elected are to meet at Santa Fe on the I'd inst

in his palmiest days:
Resolved, That we deprecate the spirit in which
the Association originated, and also the uncaed for
interference of schoolboys in political affairs, which
they should ever entrust to the and supervision
of their seniors and superors.
Resolved, That the address published and dis.
tributed by the members Of the Association is
fraught with spirit of treason, snsuyYsctioss and
etrI s0ay, wholly abhorrent every true friend of

Resolued, That believing, as we do, the ultimate
object of the Association is the dissolution of the
Union, we disclaim all concert or communication

tanned all that could have been desired, in the ad

nevertheless, been settled in a manner entirely

The Journal of Commerce says:

"The manner in which the New School General
Assembly disposed of the questions submitted to
law, is creditable to their good sense and wisdom
They did not allow themselves to be caught in
the snare which was set for them; they resolutely
refused to pass resolutions against the fugitive
slave law, and probably would have refused also
to pass resolutions in its favor, the prevalent
opinion being that it was essentially matter of
civil government, and called for no action, either
adverse or concurrent on the part of ecclesiastical
bodies.
The conservative course pursued by this As
sembly is an encouraging sign of the times, and
should be duly appreciated. srhe Old School Pres
bylerian Church has always been sound on this
subject, breasting itself firmly against fanaticism,
but enjoning faithful observance of relative du.
ties between master and slave, according to the
Scriptures, and relying rather upon the influence
of Christianity for the gradual extinction of the
system, than upon any direct efforts for that end.
1t has found the advantage of this course in large
increase of numbers and influence
