During the same period thirty-one slayers
are believed to have left New York, which,
at the average Of 500 each, would have
taken, and very likely did take from Africa
Is eco slaves. The correspondent adds
The Orion was sent to New York the
United States Commissioners found no proof
against her she cleared again for the Con
90, and was captured by a British vessel and
sent to St. Helena with eight hundred ne
groes on board
The Emily, captured off Loango, was
sent to New York. The Commissioners
found no proof. She cleared again. 1t Is
now said that the Emily and Bogota are one
and the same vessel.
The Virginia has Just been captured
again on the Bermuda reefs, by British
vessel. the Skipiack An article appeared
few davs since in several of the papers, stat
inc that "the heetest vessels in the navy, and
the best officers, are at present on this ser
vice and, lest the social attractions OF the
CAV island of Madeira might induce officers
to prolong their stay, no national ship is
permitted to touch there, except on special
occasions. And yet, in spite OF all this the
fact remains beyond all dispute, that very
great number of vessels leave our ports eve
ery year, under circumstance which leave no
room for doubt that they are slavers, and
yet they are not captured by vessels of the
American squadron.
The Mohican, Sumpter and Mystic are
the only steamers in the African squadron
The last two were propellers purchased from
Mr.. Cromwell for the Paraguay Expedition.
Those who have read the accounts of the
War in Paraguay know how fast and
efficient the Sumpter and Mystic are.

From the Daily Of Saturday.

Commencement week is again upon us.
Every year seems to shorten the Intervening
time from one Commencement to the next,
and every year brings fresh interest to the
occasion.
The programme Of exercises already pub
lished will give our readers the necessary
information as to the order and occasion of
what they are to expect OF the public lit
erarv exercises, outside Of those of the un-
dergraduates. oeniors and Juniors, which
occupy the fore part of Commencement day
and the Tuesday evening previous, there will
be the Baccalaureate discourse of Rev. Pres
ident Pease tomorrow afternoon, and the
Discourse of Prof. Cutting, of Rochester
University, N. Y, before the Society of Re
ligious Inquiry tomorrow evening. Tuesday
afternoon there will be delivered before the
Society of Alumni, an Grafton by Hon. E.
G. Palmer, of St. Pauls, Minnesota, and a
Poem by James II. Scott Esq, of New YORK
City; and on Commencement afternoon at 3 j
o'clock, at the celebration Of the Sigma Phi
Society, there1will be an Grafton by Prof.
White of Michigan University and Poem
by Samuel Burnham Esq. of Boston.
From the whole we think the public may
feel sure of an abundant and interesting
treat. For Society meetings &c, we refer
chose directly concerned to the programme.

PoLIrIcAL TRADE SALE.-The y. Y. Com
merciaI speaks of the scheme Of the Constitu-
tional Union party leaders in New Jersey, at
their State convention in Trenton on the Goth
to sell out to the democracy, as 'the last
trade sael in New Jersey"
The proceedings at Dalton Hall Gt says,)
evince a design to sell out to the Brecken-
ridge Democracy as manifest as was that OF
Arnold to deliver West Point to the British
Unfortunately for their success, one of the
delegates, who disliked such trade-sales,
asked an ugly question about the powers OF
the committee, and this, followed by a
proposed amendment, would have spoiled
the whole arrangement but for the parlia-
mentary manm1vre of adjourning, which
was resorted to. As it is, though the bargain
has been consummated, the success OF the
scheme is still as questionable as that of
Arnold, after the boots of Major Andre had
testified against him

an insane perseverance in the attempt to compete
with river freight and with knowledge that ow
