The President yesterday sent to the
Senate the name of Gen. Van Valken-
burg, of New York, as Minister to ia

The Herald's Richmond correspon-
dent says:
The people of Richmond are in n
high state Of excitement in apprehen-
sion of an outbreak among the negroes
during the approaching holidays. 1t is
reported that preparations for a ryipan-
tic instruction have been made By die
extensive gathering and secretion OF
arms, and from fear that the negroes
WIZ attack and rob the trains, the Su-
perintendent of the Richmond & DAN
Vile Rail Road has issued a notice that
no freight will be carried over it be
tween the 2lst inst.Eand 9Th of Jan. The
apprehension is believed to be ground
less.
The aggregate force recently ordered
TO be mustered out of the military ser
vice Is 10000.
General Fitz Henry Warren has been
breveted Major General. He will not
go to GUATEMALA, If at all, until after

The Worlds special says:
There is no official information from
the French Government that the Em-
peror intends to withdraw the French
troops from Mexico, yet 1t is regulrrly
given out by the French Minister in
diplomatic circles that such is his in
tention. Macmillan expects to supply
their places with Austrian troops, num-
bers of whom are said to be on their
way to Mexico.

CATTLR-The market for cattle has
been fairly active this week, the trans.
actions in the aggregate being larger
than last week, and there were more
buyers in attendance than for some
time past. Good cattle Were in Yery
tair demand, and sold readily at eS-
treme prices, TX to 8 cents gross, while
the commoner grades, are as duh as
ever, and have still further declined
Eastern buyers We're more disposed to
operate this week than last, and the
majority of them bought pretty freely
and that, too, at a slight advance.
Yannatta sold a drove of nice fat Ohio
Steers, to go to Philadelphia at TX; and
Dolan q Refs sold 81 head of nice
66yonrp3n Co., Kentucky Steers, for the
new 6ork market, at 8 cents. We
might also note some two or three
groves OF good cattle that sold at go to
"a anu q still greater number that
were disposed of at prices ranging from
~ to 5G-the inside figure for scala

or three days, but as compared with the
close OF last week, prices have declined

=, SHEEP.-At no time perhaps during
the past year has there been less inuuiS
~ for Sheep than during the week which
has just closed. Usually we have sales
OF from 1000 to 5000 head to report week
~, but this week, the sales all told
would not exceed i've hundred head
The arrivals were not yery largo. but
with only one buyer in attendance, the
market ruled very dull, and there was
scarcely enough done to establish quo

no safes, and we presume 55< to 5S<
