Singular proceedings lately took place :
in tbe territorial legislature of Xew Mexi- :
co in respect to slavery. The speaker of;
tbe house, Judge Kcithlcy, introduced a'
bill to repeal the law protecting slavery in
tbe territory, which was favorably receiv
ed. But the next day the defendants of
the national administration rallied their
forces, and not only rejected the bill, '.
but expelled Judge KeitUey from the
speak- rsbip and ekcted a new speaker. '
Tbe oij.-ct of ibis operation is to make it.

being about thirty miles from tbe sea. t
Tbe .Mobile river, which is formed by the i
junction of tbe Alabama and Tombtgbee, !
enters the Ray at this place. It is regu- ;
larly laid out, in squres, with fine, broad
streets. lis building", both private and
public, arc graced with an unusual display j
of architectural skill and taste. Many of:
the pt irate residences aie surrounded with ;
beautiful yards, hands 'tnely arranged, and ;
ornamented with tbc rich fluwers of Ala
taoii, part of which are at this season cf ,
tbe vear in full lioorn. The general ap-
pcarancf of the city is one of luxury,com
f .rt, and happiness. To give you an id.a
of its lu-iness importance, I will merely
mention that its experts during tbe past '
three months w-.rc valued at ovr Seven
teen Millions of Duliars. It is with un
feigned pleasure tbat I witness such pros
perity in this remote limit of the Union. ,
Alabama has made rapid strides. In the

not cq-nled some of our other new States,
still, it is commendable ; and Mobile, as
her metropolis, is not lagorne. As one of

Tbe Warring'oti Xavy Yard, sitmted
at Warrington, on the Uay of INnsaciia,
(and about seven miles fr-m tbc old vil
lage of the same name,) is the only place,
Sjuth of XnrLik, where our national ves
sels are refa rel. Wc have a large and
pretty weii-arror.gf d establishment at this
place, with the Usui! facilities if repair
ing and building men-of-war. Tbe har
bor is onc'of the test in the United States,
and in case of a maritime war would be !
invaluable. The s'eam slo p of war, Pen- j
sacola, has just been built at this yard, 1
being the first vessel built here. A few
mon'hs ago, she sailed to Xorfolk, to get
ber engines, which were built at the Wa-b-itg'un
Xivy Yard. The new gan-loat i
Seminole has also been built here, and in
a few weeks will be ready for sea. Her
engines were tui.t in Xw Yoilr, and sent ,
out to tbe ship.
Tbe people here claim great economy
in building these vessels, but I think
their claim will be found entirely ontena
, blc. Tbe price cf skilled labor here is
very high in comparison with it at our
X'orthcra Yards, and the only advantage
is, that part of tbe timber is near at hand.
Xone of cur naval vessels exceed in popu
larity those built at Philadelphia. It is
something Pennsylvanians can boast cf.
The Wabash, the Susquehanna, the Lan
caster, the Mississippi, and Wyoming,
bave been tried, and shown the superiori
ty of the science and skill of Pennsylva-1
mans in many a distant sea. j
The eld U. S. Steamer Fulfn is now at
this yard. After she was wrecked, (which !
was about twenty miles frcm this place,) I
she was got til the beach with great diffi
culty, and brought here to be examined, j
She is to be rc-buiit and re-fitted, and an ,
attempt is to be made to make her an efS-man-of-war.
Her day is past, and their,
ill-advised attempts must be futile, altbo'
Uncle Samuel bas to pay Lr it at tbe rate

Connected with this old craft, I have many
most delightful associations, but hope tbat
it is not sacrilegious to wish tbat she was
decently buried, in at least forty fathoms
of water, and her hold full of rand.
There is quite a village, of about two
thousand inhabitants, grown np around
this Xavy Yard, in which reside a number I
cf Pennsylvanians, who bave drifted away '
down here in search of a living, and who'
appear to have been successful. The Gov-
crnmcnt bas furnished the officers attached,
to this yard with quite tasty and comfort-

A proportion of animal mixed with veg

a proportion of beets, carrots cr parsnips,
