FROM SAINT A FE.
4 Battle Expected at Ft. Craig,
UNION MEN CONFIDENT,

KANSAS C1TT, Feb. GA skirmish lately
occurred at Independence between detach-
mept Of Ohio cavalry and 4 band Of rebels
headed By Quantrc1 Parker. The latter were
routed with loss Of 8 killed, several wound
ed and several taken prisoners. a quantity
Of arms were also captured. The Federal
loss was killed and 8 wounded.
The Santa Fe mail with dates to the 10th inst
has arrived.
Sibley's proclamation did not have the de-
sired effect. Instead Of rallying men to his
standard, it has strengthened the Union army
BY at least two regiments, and placed nearly
all the citizens under arms. Great enthusi-
asm prevails In the counties Of Besnardit1o,
Venicia, and Socorro, and in the upper coun-
ties the miIitia have turned out in large num-
bers.
Adriccs from Fort Craig are to the Tth inst.
The Texans under sibley were at Fort Thornc,
fifty miles from Fort Craig, advancing
On the latter place. Their supplies were
| scarce, their transportation poor, and their
only alternative was to fight or starye to death.
Our forces are anxious for q battle, having
every advantage, and arc confident Of success,
providing there be no treachcry. A grand mass
was celebrated in ell the churches in the terri
tory, on the 10th to pray for the souls Of Gath,

FINANCIAL IND COMMERClaE,


WEDNESDAY ErEsRa G, February g 1s53-
The passage Of the Treasury note bill has pro:
duccd active discussian in financial circles; but
what effect 1t is really to have does not rs yet ap
pear from anything that has thus far transpired-
Business generally has been dull, and though the
matter has been discussed In all possible and we
might add in alInoet all impossible phases, now.
that theory Is to become reality, operators do not
seem disposed to move Immediately. The demand
notes already issued have been ut discount in
New York; but dispatches received today report
them at par and in active request. This ts owing
doubtlete to the fact that by an amendment to the
bill they arc made receivable in payment for daties
upon imports the eanc as coin-a virtue not ac-
corded to the new issue. This provision will keep
them at par hereafter. It will probably take from
thirty to sixty days to prepare the new notes for
circulation. 4 synopsis OF the bill Will be found
in another column.
1t Will be ecen by an advertisement in another
column that the Bank Of Montreal offers to advance
upon produce In storr On short OF long time paya-
bic in Chicago or Eastern cities as preferred This
shows that the managers have entire confidence
that friendly relations will continue between the
