A NEW FEATURE IN AFRICAN

An article on our first page credited to

new scheme that British IhiIanthropists
ARE considering, to encourage "Afriran emf.
grafton 10 her West India possessions and
other tropical regions, where she has found
BY experience, that no other than ncrro Ia.
Dor can be made available. France Spain
and Portugal will be parties To this project,
which is no more than 4 barefaccd scheme
for imposing upon the crcdulity of the
World by myStifying terms and conccaling
its zeal intent and purpose. 1t is in fact
nothing else than u system of African slave
~, and that in its very worst form.
England is beginning TO feel seriously
tie lack Of labor in certain OF her posses
eions, and having traced the scarcity Of
tropical products, such as Coffee, Rice, Sugar,
Cotton &c, to th, cause, she is driven to
cXpcdicmts for supplying the dcfciency.-
The term "slavCry" is dstastcfu 10 her and
the plan under consideration, is to employ

Book has very sensible editorial on
hoops, from which we adopt the following
extract.
With certain New York cotemporarv
we are glad to see that the adoption of
this healthy and graceful article of dress
IS almost universal, and we hope to wit
ness the day when every American lady
Will conform to the custom.
The women of the present generation
have already reaped immense advantages
from the general use Of the crinoIine and
knowing that fact, they have deiied rid
icule and scorned newer fashions. Even
the Empress Eugenie, who unwttingIy
blessed her sex by making it the mode,
has vainly attempted to introduce n fresh.
er style. If the ladies will stand by the
light crinoline, and still dispense with
eight out of the ten skirts they were wont
to wear, the generation yet to come will
be healthier and stronger, consumption
and diseases Of the chest will be fewer,
life will be longer, and nature better fit.

MEXICAN AFFArRs.-The Aspinwall

MEXICAN AFFAIRs.-The Aspinwall
Courier, Of July IL, says
From fully reliable source, we learn
thSt the rumor respecting the probability
Of the return OF Santa Anna 10 Mexico is
based upon fao;s Of tho most important
character. We are informed there is no
doubt that Captain General Concha, Of
Cuba, has made contract with Santa
Anna to provide the latter with three YES
sells OF war and from 500 TO 5000 mer
expenses to be paid by Santa Anna, with
which he is to endeavor to take Comon-
forts place, and that subsequently Santa
Anna is to satisfy the demands Of Spain
against Mexico. The contract is signed,
and the only question is, whether Spain
authorized Concha 20 make the bargain.
OF this we think there can be but little
doubt. If this work is to be done, the
sending Of an additional naval force TO
Cuba, to protect it against the United
States, was no idle precaution.
