The Richmond Examiner states that slaves,
especially good field hands, commanded prices
unpreced high in Virginia. The sales
book of one house in Richmond shows tina,
during the month Of March, as high as $3.50
was paid IN several instances for good hands
while there were numerous sales of common
hands at from $3.50 10 $3.50. Ehe lowest
price paid for a healthy man was $3.50. Girls
in some instances brought $3.50, and large
number were sold at from 5,ll50 TO SSl200.-
The Examiner thinks that the planters cannot
afford 10 pay such exorbitant prices, and that n
great reaction must take place.

The following amusing specimen of the
ignorance that prevails in Europe on American
affairs is taken from leading French journal
1t is hardly necessary to inform the American
reader that the soubriguet of "Back Republ
can" has been taken by the French editor in a
literal sense, and that Mr. Banks and all hi:
supporters are thought TO be men of color;
The new President of the Chamber O
Representatives in the United States, Mr.
Nathaniel Banks, is negro belonging TO the
delegation from MasSa, husetts In the double
capacity of negro and aboltionist, Mr.. Banks
has created a profound aversion among the
Representatives from the States of the south
| His election was a check to the democrats and
know.Nothngs.

maintain slavery in one-haf OF its States,
1--WE would further remark, that the candi-
date opposed TO Mr.. Banks was sustained by
know-nothings or demagogues, who oppose
both the emancipation of the slaves and the
naturalization of foreigners. Their candidate
only failed by three votes; but we now learn
