HaT The resolutions in the Senate OF the
United States in commemoration of Brod-
ericks death, were opposed by Mr.. Foster,
of Connecticut, on the ground that dueling
is against the laws of God and man, and
Broderick fell while committing that crime.
Mr.. Toombs thought he could not have
died more nobly than in defending his honor.
Messrs. Haun, Crittenden, Seward, Fos-
ter, Foote (for himself and on behalf of Mr..
Wade-detained at home, sick) and Toombs
spoke on the resolutions in the Senate. They
were passed, and the Senate adjourned as a
mark of respect.

eeA- According 10 the New Orleans Bee
and Delta, the firm of Haas & Wiser. of that
city, have started tannery where alligator
skins are prepared into leather. "Boots
made of the tanned skins of this aboriginal
inhabitant are in extensive use, and speci-
mems have been sent to Europe" So says
the Bee. It glories exceedingly and justly
over the Importance of home manufactures,
and calls on some one to start large boot
and shoe mandatory, from which to turn
out nigger brogans" " for the planters.

S6s@ Hon. T. A. Hendricks lat his work,
doing some hard electioneering for the Gov
ernorship. Maybe Mr.. H. is like the fellow
who was little lame, and thought he had
better start first. Guess he will think so if
Henry S. Lane gets after him. Some per-
son suggests that Mr.. Hendricks ought not
to get to canvassing so soon, for perhaps a
great deal of his work may have to be done
over again. Col. Lane will knock some of
his calculations into "pi," sure, before he is
on the track q month.

THE SANTA FE TRADE.-The Santa Fe

9th, says:
Our merchants complain of the want of
interest manifested in the States in regard
to the stoppage of the mail on the Indepen-

made to remove the distractions on the
road, and some speak of making their pur-
chases in New Orleans instead of St. Louis.

Our stave market is now very much depressed,

Quence of the large quantities arriving here and

Clarets or French butts, of good quality, are
selling here at from S15 to $25; hid. slaves from
$40 to $50, and pipe slaves from 800 to $50 per
1000 of twelve hundred slaves.
The prospect of better prices will not improve
