The Minister of Finance has issued circular de-

soil where it ourishes requires attention beyond
the gathering Of its fragrant produce, which is large
in proportion to the size Of the tree; and Mexico Is
the only country in the world we believe, in which

Review OF THE Wool MARKETroR ArRu.-
The Wool Grower for May, which is the hest
Of authority, contains the following "PriccS
have continued to favor the buyer during the
past three months. The s,ringcncy of the
money market, the grain panic, and finally the
war panic, have each aud all been felt in the
wool market. But, most or all, efforts are now
made and making to dcprcSs the price ofwool
so as to bring down the coming clip. Thcr1
is, however, no reason for lower rate than
reported in the last number, and there is n
fair prospect that wool will very much nd.

BosroS FuGnIvE SLAVE CASE.-Thc tugi-

Judge Loring, in his opinion, stated that
the case came under statue Of 1880. The
respondent argued that the statue was uncon-
sttutional. The Judge argued at some
length, forcihly sustaining the constitutional
ity. The special objection had been made TO
record, but he considered the document in
exact conformity tothc statute. The Statute
was wicked and cruel, and With that hc had
nothing to do.
There was great excitement when he was
taken TO the vessel which carries him back to
slavery. but no demonstrations TO violence,
He was taken away in the revenue cutter.
