FROM MEXICO.

We have dates from the City of Mexico to the 3lst
ult and from Vera Cruz to the 4h inst The principal
item of news appears to be that Mramon has raised
considerable amount Of money, nearly half million of
dollars for his projected attack Vera Cruz 1t is
said that he obliged to give $4,000 900 of bonds
in exchange for this sum- but this hardly proba-
ble Indeed, according to account 500 OC0 of the
sum il set down as from patriotic subscriptions, and
$3.50 900 having been loaned by tie banker Jecker
But this is the only triumph which Miramon has won
lately. His forces are beaten on all hands, and it is
probable that if he attack, Vera Cruz it will be at the
expense of the City of Mexico itself. The guerrilla
force of Aurelano even now frequently makes its ap-
peaIance at Ilapam, less than dozen miles from the
city. About Toluea, which is not 30 miles away,
strong Liberal force assembled and there are reports
that that import9n place has fallen; and finally Ava-
rez has informed the Liberal Government at Vera
Cruz that he will Join this body with 1900 men,
which will raise the Constitutional forces within strik-
ing distance of the Capital to nearly 00O the Mex
leans count. In Mchoacan the Liberals claim 6 900

several thousand troops they have compelled Gen.

DEATH OF FREDERICK IN CONGRESS.

From Our Special Correspondent
WASHINGTON, Feb. 10, 1860.
The death SHOULD it not be called the murder y
of Senator BrOderick was noticed in both Houses
to-day. ThoaRh the custom of setting apart a
Congressional day for ealogies upon member who
died in the vacation is so perncious that it would
be more hOnOred in the breach than the observance
yet the fall of so noble character as BrOderick
was not suitable occasion for its abolition.
The speeches in both Houses were generally ex-
cellent and attracted unusual attention from
crowded auditories. That of Gov. Seward was
admirable. A veteran legislator declared that it
was the best he had ever heard from the lips of our
distinguished Senator. That of Mr.. Wade (read,
in his absence from illness, by Mr.. FOot) was
hearty tribute from the brave representative OF
Ohio to the liOn-hearted martyr of California.
In the House, Mr.. Haskin pronounced an elo-
quent eulogium on his old companion in the Lee
compton contest. Mr.. Burlingame, speaking for
the distinctive Republicans was tasteful in matter
and graceful in manner. But the most striking
feature of the occasion was the speech of Mr..
Hickman 1t was discriminating, generous, pun
gent, bold.
In both houses, it needed but the glance of the
eve around the PrO-Slavery sides of the chambers
to satisfy the observer that these euogies the
memory of the boldest and most inhexibe enemy
of the Negro Propagandists, aud the btterest and
most remOrseless foe of corrupt Administration,
in the last Congress, were wormwOOd and gall to
those who feared Broderick while living and hate
him even in bis tomb.

yesterday, in Forty forth street. at rates about haf
cent higher than the previous week There were not
over 1900 head in the Yard, and the proportion Of
good beeves was very mnch efs than last Tuesday;
so that the advance was greater upon the best stock

the stock ysrded was Sold 20 that the probability d
that the market to-day will continue quite as good for
droyers as 1t was on Tuesday unless considerable
accession to the stock should arrive, which we co,dd
not Learn expected last night when we left tvs
market. The cattle-market report last week gave
472l for the total receipts of the city for the week.
Allowing 1900 to Forty-fourh street, SG sold on
Monday at Bergen, and the number as last week
$50 to the three downtown stables, we should have
1876 against 4,72l which is quite sufficient to account
for rise of half cent pound in the price. The
average weight, too, is very much lighter.

The AMERICAS EAGLE In DAsGER.-Now don't
drop your paper in dismay oh reader when this dread
ful announcement meets your eye but rather nerve
yourself to bear the shock with decent show of COM
pcsure. We reiterate the assertion-the American
Eagle is in danger But mind you, we don't mean TO
be understood by this as referring to that dusty old
buzzard fguratively known as "the bird Of our
country for he is happily out Of all DANGER tho
Fourth of July orators and reeatng fsctionists hsv-
ing long since spread him ont to such degree Of
tenuity that the inevitable catastrophe could no
longer be ayerted. No, It's no feathered fowl that
we fear for, though the peril which we point out
arises from the foulest causes.
We fear for the safety Of the Golden Esede tho
bright shining yellow ten almighty dollartoken the
only real genuine, original, and slwaysto-be-hedin
the-highest-respect American eagle. We wouldn't
have believed it, if had not seen il with our own
eyes, but the truth must out-this highly respectable
conservative coin is beginning to play the confidence
game and if it should continue this sort of thing for
little while it would be sure lose the confidence Of
the community Testing aside, most dangerous
counterfeit of the gold eagle discovered yesterday
customer Of the Metropolitan Bank paid number
Of these coins which be bad received from that ns-
tutioD into the United States Sub Treasury when tbs
specie clerk rejected one apparently as fsr in appear
ance as the best of the heap This coin was returned
to the bank and in spite of the welknown skill of the
specie clerk in the detection of spurious coins about
thirty bank telers, to whom it shown pronounced
il genuine and offered to take at its face. Some
were so sure of the correctness Of their Judgments that
they would bet 500 to $40 that it was good. And
well they might be thus confident, since il answered
all the tests Of weight, sound circumference aud
thickness.
In fae externally it was standard COIN but upon
being cut in two, the cheat was made palpabe. This
piece had evidently been split edgewise both halves
filed quite thin and in place Of the stolen gold piece
of whitish metal placed between the halves and the
whole remilled. What metal was substituted for tho
gold is not known but Judges pronounced Il pls-
tinum but is not likely that costly and scarce
mineral would be employed in concentrating; and yet
must have been Of very dense body to.equal gold
n bulk and weight. After this, who viii not agree
with US that the American Eagle is in danger?
