Mr.. Trumtull' right TO his seat was affirmed TO-
day by a vote of 35 to 8. Most Of those who voted
against him have been repudiated By their cons'i'-

constitutional scrupes against an anti Douglas
Senator from Illinois.

The slight increase in the price Of Beef Cattle
yesterday at the great City Cattle Market in Forty
fourth street. was occasioned solely by the owners
and salesmen who based their calculations upon
the fact that only two thirds as many were in the
pens yesterday were offered yesterday week, and
upon that ground demanded an advance equal to
one or one and half cent pound for the meat
In this calculation the droyers were no! susta ned
by the butchers, for the reason that many of them
are well supplied with beef purchased at the re-
duced rates Of last week, aud the weather is jas
the right kind for keeping meat There is anothe
cause why butchers do not require a large suppl
OF beef-the city is full Of venison, which is selling
at or cents pound. Deer carcases in Washing
tonmarket replied up like pork in packing house.
We have never seen anything like it before in this
city Iheremusthave been terribles slaughter among
these beautiful animals during the deep snow of the
Winter now slowly passing away. There is anO-
Their very cheap article of food that has been intro
duced 60 far US We know, for the first time this
Winter in large quantities. This is mutton-hams
froo the West, which are sold by the cask at 81
cents pound. Our opinion has often been ex.
pressed that the people OF this city live we'll
without paying the enormous prices that have pre-
vailed for year past.

0mo ANERIoAsIsM.-The riae of the American
party was so rapid that its ranks were filed not
only by true hearts, but alas by traitors and dis
appointed politicians who thought by its means to
rise into notorety that there is no cause for won
der that we should have those apparently with as
who indeed are disgrace to our party and princi-
plies. We are now undergoing thorough and ef-
fective winnowing, the chaf is being separated
from the wheat, the impure from tbs pure, the
time-servers from the men Of principle. This pu-
ri6cstion has been going on in several States
Pennsylvania has repudiated Ex. Governor John
ston and his clique. Ohio has thrown Ford, Spoon
er, & Co., overheard New York has dropped
Hammond and the anti.Americans, whilst in Illi-
nois, Jennings dropped himself from mere inani-
tion, the State not considering him worthy of no
tice. The course pursued by the quasi State Coun-
Gil of Ohio shows upon its face the intentions Of
the men who sought to control il, and the true
men, though fewer in number than the false heart
ed, speaking, as they did, the sentiments Of the
masses, carried with them moral force that win
be irresistible. The party in Ohio are this day
better off than they ever were before, for they
rid Of those who were continually breeding and
throwing dissension into the ranks.-chicdgo Ma

CAPTURE OF AN AMERICAN SLAvER-By the
Emeu at Boston from Liverpool, we have the fol-
lowing
The American schooner Maria E. Smith had been
captured by the Brazilian brig of war Olinda, while
attempting to land 800 negroes, which she had
brought from the coast Of Africa The Olinda took
the schooner into Bahia, where the Commander
and crew (all Amercans) were ironed and locked
up in the jail When the schooner left the coast
OF Africa, she had on board 800 blacks, but they
were so closely packed board, totally naked and
SO badly fed during the voyage that $50 died and
were thrown overheard and of those landed at
Bahia 81 died few hours afterwards The sur
vivors were Immediately fed and clothed, and will
be taken care of until their ultimate destination Is

ExrRAoRDINARY DISPATCH ON THE PANAMA Rail-
RoAD.-The following instance Of remarkable dis
patch is well worth noting:
"The steamship Illinois left New York on the
5th Of March, with $50 passengers, 800 bags Of
United States mail matter, and 300 tons OF express
freight, besides passengers baggage. This whole
cargo arrived and left Aspinwall on the morning
Of the 18th March, and was transported from the
Atlantic to shipboard on the Pacific in IL hours,
thus enabling the Pacific steamer TO proceed on
from Panama with New York dates a few hours
over eight days old.
