Tue OLDEST Person IL BosToN.-Thc tax
er Of the census of Ward in Boston, lately
reported that he found in IA house in Southac
street, a colorcd female, who, it was stated
TO him on good authority, had reached TIE
almost incredible age of one hundred and
ten years. The female in question is gener-
ally known among the colored people of that
region as "Mother Boston," some of her
neghbors making her out to be one hundred
and twelve wears of age. An investigation
brings to light the following facts She was
born in the city and was slave, and is, prob
ably, the only living person who was born a
slave in Massachusetts.

CO The New Orleans Delta and other in
auential papers earnestly advocate the annex
alton of Mexico To the United States.
We should not be at all surprised if the
measure should constitute the chief plank of
the next Baltimore locofoco Platform. The
admission of several millions of foreigners
TO the privileges Of citizenship by "A single
act Of Congress, would electually head OF
Know Nothingism, and must consequently be
a very tempting bait Ia the nag NIGHTS
While the prospect Of carving the Mexican
dominions into ten or dozen slave stat y
will present 4 powerful motive for the sup
port OF the South.
The Loeofocoparty however, lost one Pres
ident through their Vaccinations with Mexi-
co, and the remembrance Of that fact will
make them cautious about entering into this
splendid scheme. Still these fortunates arc
desperate, and they may resort to desperate
means to relieve them.

II WAS MISTAKEN" "A lively writer has

words to pronounce in the English language.
Yet it seems like acknowledging that we are
wiser than we were before TO see our error,

so il is: and Frederick the Great did himself
more honor by his letter to his Senate, stating
that he had just lot q great battle by his

not to escape imperfections, but to see and
acknowledge, and lament and correct them.

counts Brigham Young was awfullv excited.
Tie had been making speech, and told in
very pathetic terms how, according to his in
structions, the principal Mormons opened
their houses to the United States troops who
were quartered among them last winter-and
how these troops made love by the wholesale
TO the Mormon women-and how deporably
successful they were. Brigham Young saws:
Past experience has taught the brethren
that in future it will probably be the best
policy TO let soldicry quarter by themselves,
and am perfectly willing.
1t persons c.me here and behave like GEN
tlemen, they shalsenjoy their rights, and we

What especially msddened Brigham was
the fact that quite number of the Mormon
girls concluded to follow the bold soldier
boys to California, preferring the land Of
gold and soldiers company to the harems of
the Salt Lake Palestine. Brigham saws:
The men who coaxed them (the girls away
did not intend to take them to California. If
any offer to do the same thing again in these
mountains, Judgment shall be laid to the
line and righteousness to the plummet - and
they shall say that Brigham does not lie.
In the course Of speech on the 18th Of
July, Brigham throws down the gauntlet to
the Gentiles in the following style:
We want none of their money, and if they

Catholics can obtain from the school taxes
OF all our people certain portion for their

The Archiepiscopal Organ says, appearing

f ''Let the Albany Evening Journal put this

''But this one, we meet our Canadian
neighbors with clean hands and with strong

came very near carrying through the legisla-
ture bill, vesting in him all the Roman

will be sad day, however, for Americans
that day--when we must raise money to sup
