Some young ladies, feeling aggravated by
the severity with which their friends spec
ulated on their gay plumes, necklaces, rings,
&c., went to their pastor 10 learn his opin-

"Do you think" said they, "there is any
improperly in wearing these things?"
"By no MEANS" was the prompt reply,
''when the heart is full of ridiculous notions,
it is perfectly proper to hang out the sign"

purposes, and making six equal divisions Of it
among the various Protestant sects.
Since that time the matter has formed con-
slant and unfailing theme for agitation in the
colonies-the liberal men Of all parties demand
ing repeal Of the vexatious bill. One of the
first acts Of the administration now in power in
England, was to introduce measure for its re-
peal. and it is the result of that measure which
has been such triumph for the Canadians. We
are confident, however, that the victors will be
generous, and voluntarily contribute the need
full for the support of the church, which will be
SO much reduced in circumstances in conse-
quence Of this act Of the imperial legislature.
After this triumph of the Canadians, the
modest demands Of the New Brunswickers and
Nova Scotians for reciprocity of trade with the
United States, receive powerful stimulant
and support ; and SO Mr.. Buchanan may find it
more difficult matter than he ina gines to set
tie the fishery treaty in London. without COM
plying with these demands. The British North
American colonies are beginning to have some
thing Of political existence.

TIE NAPOLEON OF New MExIcO-The great
Corsican, when meditating the plans Of some of
his brilliant campaigns, was in the habit of
making carpet Of large map Of Europe, and
spreading himself down upon it. to mark out,
more at his ease, the countries which he de-
signed to overrun and subject to his arms.
Just in the same way Governor Lane. of New
Mexico has been oflate deeply absorbed in exam
lining the chart Of the fertile province Of the
Rio Grande. and dcvising the plan Of q most
magnificent campaign. which would immortal
ize his name, and entitle him to niche among
the Caesars, Hannibals and Alexanders Of an
tiquity.
It appears that the Mecilla Valley. in Chi
huahua, was the territory which Governor
Lane marked out for immediate conquest and
annexation to his dominions, on the prctence
that the Boundary Commission had been in
error in conceding it to Mexico. He, therefore,
on the 18th of March last, issued an edict,
somewhat after the style of ACKNOWLEDGMENT, de-
claring the coveted valley within the terrific
rial limits and jurisdiction of New Mexico, and
commanding all civil and military officers Of
the United States to execute therein the laws
of this republic. Governor Lane, however,
happened to find himself in the category
of those foolish men who commenced to
build tower without calculating the
cost, and so, when he thought he had nothing
to do but take military possession of the valley,
it turned out that his little army refused to act
and the conquest was only paper one, after
all Colonel Sumner in command of a body of
the United States forces, declined acting on the
requisition Of the Governor, conceiving that his
act was an illegal and improper one, inasmuch
as the Mecilla Valley had been recognized as
constituting portion of the Mexican republic
by Mr.. Bartlett. the Boundary Commissioner,
and had never been claimed by the government
of the United States.
In the meantime the Mexican authorities are
concentrating their forces in the valley resolved
to oppose to the last extremity the invasion
meditated by Governor Lane; and we would
not be at all surprised to learn, by the next
mail, that the latter had made foray on and
routed the unfortunate Mexicans, with FIVE hun
dred rifemcn collected from the backwoods
Perhaps after that he might get up war on his
own hook, fight few pitched battles with Santa
Anna, and end by planting the American stan
dard once more on the halls of the Montezumas
The only question is whether General Pierce
will allow the Napoleon of New Mexico to levy
war on his own account. We rather think that
the President will be very apt to stop him
short in his brilliant career, and thereby de-
prive the world of. hero.
