or two back, two negro boys were invcig
led into a trap set for the purpose by
some as yet unknown individuals in Sus
sex county, and being secured, were kid
mapped, carried away, and sold into slavery
at the South. A distinguished lawyer
of that county was consulted in regard
to the matter, who Immediately put
things in train for the discovery OF
the whereabouts of the boys. Having
got on the right track, matters were
pushed on vigorously, and finally the
two negroes we're traced to their present
location, and identified. The gentleman
having the matter in charge proceeded
to the spot, which is in the reighborhood
of Richmond, Virginia, and having seen
the boys, returned, and passed through
this city a few days ago, on his way to
Sussex, for the purpose of obtaining the
necessary evidence wherewith to identify
the negroes, as will lead to their release
and return to home, friends, and free

The day continued fine throughout. and
the Celebration catne off according to the
programme and with less confusion than
might have been reasonably anticipated from
the extent of the preparations and the vast
concourse of people assembled to witness. the
show. The procession was very long and
surpassed in effectiveness anything of the
kind ever got up here. The Military espe-
cially made very brilliant display, and the
several regiments which formed the line were
greeted with cheers from all sides along the
whole line OF march. Other divisions of the
procession, especially that embracing the sew
eral trades, were also greeted with demonstra-
tons of applause. Most conspicuous among
these was the van bearing the Telegraph in
strument of Prof. Hughes, and that with the
Bartholf Sewing Machines, on which was q

Printers. photographers, masons, carpenters,
cabinet makers, with many other trades were
also appropriately represented.

The procession did not all arrive at the Pal

crowded to excess. The services were of the
most imposing nature, the music superb, and
the speeches appropriate and eloquent. The
presentation speech to Mr.. Field was made by
Mayor Tieman. It was neat and compliment

Mexican Affairs.

The correspondents of tho Mobile

writes under a late date:
"In view of the unprecedented condi
ton of the country at large, and of the
governments here, which is moneyless,
and must sell territory to the United
States or fall soon, l cannot help think
ing that Mexican nationality is ap-
preaching its end, and hat there is a
strong probability that the mission of
Mr.. Forsyth will be Tie last mission
from the United States here. The most
intelligent Mexicaps and the mass of the
foreigners, except, perhaps, the Span
iards. are warmly in favor of the extern
sion hither of the power of that country.
The English eagerly desire it as the
ouly method of securing their enormous
claims SO long unpaid. The throes are
quick and violent, and | am anxious to

would afford much curious and valuable
instruction and offer such opportunitie.

A New PEsT.-It is a sorrowful task
to record the fact, that a kind of Ourcu
Ito has, in addition to its ravages in
other departments of mischief, COM
meneed it's attack upon tie peach crop,
in various localities. The Alton Demo
erat of a late date, says; "As the fruit
continues to ripen and become mellow,
a worm is found in almost every peach.
We have examined trees in the suburbs
of Alton, aud found this to be generally
the Gaze. 1t may be different with late
peaches; still, we noticed very many of
them having the black worm hole, and
also showing the rot commencing around
it. We have picked off many peaches,
within q day or two, which exhibited no
worm speek on the surface, looking fair
and nice, but contained the worm inside,
and were quite rotten all around the
stone. The curculio must have been
laid while the peach was in blow. The
crop in this region is but a partial one,
at best, and if this difficulty continues
"a difficulty unknown to this fruit in
this locality, heretofore--it may be re-
garded as quite a failure"
