THE AFRICAN SLAVE TRADE- Washington,
March 2.-The President, in replying to the call
of the House for information concerning the
African slave trade, says the instructions given
TO the commander of the squadron are such that
seizures are not likely to be made, except under
circumstances which would at least insure
certificate of probable cause, if they did not au-
thorize condemnation.
The object of the Government has been TO
arrest as far as practicable, ye4atioqs Interrupt
ton of lawful commerce. The only instance
at present known to the Department, in which
an officer capturing SLAYER or suspected SLAYER
on the coast of Africa has been sued or other
wise embarrassed by the owners, officers, or
agents, of the captured vessels, is that of Com.
mander Simmons, who captured the brig Casket
in his case, no damages sppearad to have been
recovered against him, and the expenses in
CURED by him in defending the suit were re-
funded to him under an &C. of Congress passed
in 1854.
The number of captures made by the Amer
lean squadron under the treaty of Washington.
previous to September last, was twenty, of which
six were condemned.

NEGRO HIRING IN TExAs.-The old insanity
about negro hiring has returned DIroughts,
grasshoppers, and hard times generally, seem
to have been forgotten, and people rush head
long into reckless extravaganza, without reflect
ing that the crop season is yet in the future.
The bids offered for negroes last Tuesday ex-
ceeded anything of the kind we remember to
have witnessed, or even heard of. Old grand
mothers-scarcely able to do more than feed
chickens and keep babies out of the fre-hired
for figures ranging from $50 to Sl6O per year /;
boys and girls, aged from ten to fourteen years,
brought respectively one hundred and sixty,
one hundred and seventy, and one hundred and
eighty dollars whilst grown men and women
realized from two hundred to two hundred and
seventy-fve dollars. This, when we remember
that the hirer is to pay all expenses, looks more
like selling than hiring. -Bastrop Adrertiser.

The Jacksonville (Fla.) Standard says /:

"The picking up cargo of white boys and
girls in the streets of New York and trading
them West, is called philanthropy. The pick
ing up cargo of black savages and trading
them South, is called piracy. The English inn
port coolies copper colorsd; the French import
Africans black, and call it moral. 1t is all
'bosh, and whipping the deyi around the stump.
Let the laws regulate the trade, and not prohibit
it, and then the horrors of it would disappear !;
if labor is wanted it will be supplied and all the
navies of the world cannot prevent its emigra-
ton"

inously confirmed by the Senate on Monday,
as Minister to Mexico. Also, Charles L. Wei
Ter was confirmed as Postmaster of San Fran

1t is said that Mr.. McLane is to leave for

vided it is in condition to maintain its exist

Much speculation exists on the question
whether there is to be an extra session. The
general impression is, that called session will
be necessary. The report that the President
will call session to meet on the first of Octo-
Der is wanting in probability, as that date
would only anticipate the regular session by
two months.
