Mexican Annexation Fancies.

There are some hasty philosophers
who imagine that the United States il
likely in time to annex AT least the
Northern portion Of Mexico; and this
notion also finds favor among con-
siderable number of wealthy McXicans,
who suppose that their property inter-
ests would be safer if the government
of the northern republic were extended
over them.
This notion, however, seems TO be
entirely fanciful. There is nothing in
the northern portion of Mexico, with
the exception, perhaps, of parts of Tam
aulipas, To attract the immigration of
North Americans. The barren regions
of Coahuila, chihuahua and Sonora
offer small inducements TO settlers.
Even the best parts of these States can
only be made useful for cattle ranges,
and these require but limited popula-
ton. The mines. however rich they
may be, can only be worked with costly
apparatus, and the Indians of the
country will supply every demand for
labor. In this situation there is moth
ing to bring about annexation. II the
country were rich, If il were capable of
being settled by II dense agricultural
population, the case might be other
wise; but as IL now stands, there Is moth
ing that can make il an object for
American politicians To add Mexico OF
any part of il to the United States.
OF course, the restless Yankee viii
always have heavy interests in Mexico,
No matter what losses may be incurred,
the chances of successful mining or Of
fortunate hits in other directions will
always suffice to charm due proper
ton of our spectators. But whatever
effect these gentlemen may produce, ol
however their wishes may be seconded
by few rich Mcxicans, ii is most i'm.
probable that the northern republic
will desire, or that the southern republic
will be willing. TO annex the two coun-
tries together under one Government.
In the North the policy of adding six or
eight millions of Indians TO voting
population in which there is already
too much of ignorance will not be toll
Grated; while in the South the differ
! cnces of race, language. laws and
! usagos will present on that side oh
stacles equally insurmountablc Each
country will, Of course, exert it, due
weight in the development of the other;
and there should be no reason in any
national jcalouses or fears of cncroach-
ment, why this development should not
be healthy. invigorating. and always IN
the direction of progress. C 4. Dona

f.. Slain For Fashions Sake.

During the last two or three years, or
since tickle minded fashion has dccreed
that birds as well as feathers should be
used to ornament the heads of the elite
of feminine society, a new source OF
revenue has been opened TO the natives
of Southern California. Santa Barbara,
being "thc land of flowers" is neccssa-
rily the home of the delicate little hum
ming bird, which lives upon the distilled
pollen or bee food of our gaudiest flora.
In glass case upon the counter within
the drug store of A. M. Ruiz was dis
covered two rows of dead humming
birds, each with their little feet turned
up TO the daisics.' ''Thc trade is re-

pose to engage very heavily in it, rs it
Is not exactly i'm our line, which is drugs

'How do you obtain these humming

"Why do they not use nctsp Ii would

NETS would be better, believe, but
