The affairs of Mexico continue to engross all atten

the sword The church, in point of fact, is the only
declared dicuty-not the tenets of the church--but
the use and abuse, as it is termed, OF the
church property, and the consequent pohtica

The authority whose sentiments lay open to you-at
this time the most important-avers, that, not only
will not the church be permitted to own real estate

FAwKEs's STEAM PLow.-Tlis new farm imple-

and appears TO have given general satisfaction We
should like TO see this other steampropslled
plow at the next great Agricultural Show in this city,
which the American Institute intend TO hold in Sep
tember II would be Of the most interesting
things that could be exhibited, and it could be put ia
operation in Hampstead Plains, where the surface is
as smooth a. an Illinois prairie. II would be feen,
too if exhibited here, by capitalists who are largely
interested in is success at the West. BY all means,
let us have the steam pow at the next Fair. 1t
would attract multitude.
BY the by, We understand that the New-York HoT-
ticultural Society intend TO make their Autumn ex-
hibition in connection with the Agricultural Show Of
the Institute. Why can't We have the Brooklyn
Horticultural Society at the same time Let US
have one grand agricultural horticultural, and for
cultural show that will be credit to the host en-
gagged in the production Of these things Of beauty
and necessity around New-lork.
