KEW YORK FASHIONS.-The modistes
of Netr York bave opened their Spring
roillineiy. The papera of that city give
lengthy descriptions of the sew ?aabion?.
The Daily Nnct says:
The shape of the bats ibis season does
not differ essentially from those introduced
.in (be An tumo, with thia exception, that
th*y are smaller, allowing the hair to be
very ornately worn. The hat- bss no
curtain, a band with a tow of narrow rib?
bon crossing the centre of the water-fall, or
a fall of lace and flowers event, being worn
instead.
Notwithstanding the. pressure in the
monty market, there is no evidence.of
tbridgineht in the nee of costly materials,
which consist chiefly of mahne ?nd crape
covered with malino. Chip is alto quita in
vogue.
The prevailing colors are cora ?>d
lavender, (hough not to confined to these
two as last season, green and white finding
mete favor titan usual. Feathers are not
mut-b used, but flowers and laces predomi?
nate, and il is the general remark that the
beauty, finish ?nd exquisite richness of the
flowers tbis season have never been equaled,
nor K it possible to conceive tbst any im?
provement oan be made upon them, since
they aro perfect imitations cf nature in her
mott delicate manifestations. There is no
limit to tbe variety.
In viewing the ribbons we were struck
with their extreme width, tbe richness ol
their quality, ? nd also thc novelty of tbe
latest style-, that is. a fringe woven one
side, either of the ssm? color of tbe ribbon
or different, to form a handsome contrast.
This description is m ed more for spring
sod special ornementation on chip sna fine
strsw. It will be particularly noticed that
there is a novelty in the materials that
give general satisfaction. "We refer to thc
nalino thet is used. It ie fora ed of varieuf
colors, and not merely white and black, ai
formerly. "With regard to ornements musk
may Le said, as they aie ol msny devices ir

FROM MEXICO.-On tbe 27th of last
month was officially published in the city
of Mexico Maximilian's decree confirming
all the confiscations and sales of church
prepetty made under .former'Goyernmenfp,
amounting to many millions of dollars.
This is a severe blow at tbe ecclesiastical
rule, which bsa swayed Mexico since its
settlement by Europeans. One of its effects
will Le the establishment of religious- tole?
ration in tbe country, and it baa caused in?
tense excitement among tbe priests and the
church psrty generally. Another decree,
merging tho church power into that of the
State, was expected soon to follow.
Another excitement arose out of tbe re
..ignaticn of tbe several .members of the
Emperor's cabinet, which, however, was
not supposed ft Lave been induced wholly ifjjf
by bis decree against the church.
Additional successes of the Imperial
arms are announced, sad sew adhesions to
I the Empire of important republican leaders
i are claimed.
i There wss a largs number of prominent
Americans in Mexico.
BRAVEST.-lt is a brave story, that of
Latour D' Auvergne, and one worthy of
notice now-a-days. Be was a native of
Bretagne, and early embraced the profes?
sion of arms. Be distinguished himself as
the commander of a company of grenadiers
at tbe outbreak of the great revolntk v ot'
France. He wss frequently offered bigber
appointments, bat always declared himself
only fit to commend bis grenadiers; end co
gi eat a reputation for heroism and success
bad these grenadiers that they were terned
tbe Infernal Column, and usually const I
tuted tbe vanguard ef tbe sxmv. Hie
celebrated Mastes* was one of D' Au?
