We are not sure that BL Decoratia . does not stand, in point of antiquity, at the , head of the whole calendar. From the ear nest period of the world, as far back as the ; time when there were but two women in the j family of Adam, the settlement of the qnss- ; tion of “bonnets and head bands,and change able suits of apparel, and mantles, and wim ples, and fine linen, and hoods and vails” has been recognized as the chief end of women- Over this great college of the sex, sitting en pit manence, the fair St. Decoratia presides, ever changing, yet ever the same; always'gay and smiling, sometimes a trifle provoking, always declared to be thoroughly satisfactory. > 8t Decoratia’s Yearly Meeting takes no votes upon her edicts. She conceals her measures and her policies as reticently as j if she were President Grant her self, and when she unfolds her plans and designs, she permits a certain amount of buzz and hum and show of consultation among her sworn devotees, and then she “declares the sense of the meeting,” and her decision is law. From the days when her immortal youth began, St. Decpratia has swayed her iron tetptre in her patte de velours, and Puck never dreamed of half the pranks which thiß incomprehensible sovereign plays j with her humble subjects. Now and then, we see some unruly young person, born with that malformation of brain which tempts her to have ideas oi her own, tugging her heart out, in the vain struggle to resist Bt. Decora tia’e commands. Now and then, some dull Dowager bridles up and mutters angry vowb that her daughters shall not shape their notions of decency or taste after the de cisions of the omnipotent Saint- Now and then we bear of leagues and covenants whose aim and end is to overthrow the adamantine throne of the imperious divinity that admin- j isters law to Universal Woman. How St. I Decoratia laughs at them all.' How she I punishes their impotent arrogance by impo sing new and monstrous penalties! How j she fashions new dunce-caps, and new san i benitoe for her penitents I How she tortures ! them with unbecoming colors! How she : disfigures them with hideouß shapes! How | she sits the while and smiles her blandest ' smiles as they recant their treason and bind themselves to their renewed allegiance! j Bnt Bt. Decoratia, like her festival month, j bestows rewards as well as punishments, sun shine as well as clouds, smiles as well as lean. This year she is in a good humor, and to-day her prime ministers, the Milliners, the Modistes, the Merchants of feminine goods, commonly, but unpoeiically, called ‘‘dry," are holding high court. To-day is the Great Spring Opening. To day is BL Decoratia’s Yearly Meeting. It is not a Meeting for Suf ferings, bnt one of Decorations. Great is the feast and great is the congregation of the faithful who have gathered to it- Gorgeously delicate to look upon are the Spring Bonnets,—they are still called Bonnets, for some reason or other. Marvelous are the Spring Mantles and Shawlß and name less outer gear. Wondrous in variety, in texture, in color, in pattern, in material, are the displays upon the counters and shelves of the palaces where St. Decoratia is chiefly worshipped. It is a busy day with her vota ries, for the Baint is in her best humor this Spring, and she is offering nothing but pretty things to her faithfnl subjects. For days past, the Evening Bulletin has been turned into a sort of Court Journal, and our columns have been and still are annonneing the many attractions which our Dry Goods Merchants, our Milliners, or fashionable Modisteß have prepared to do honor to the Spring Festival of Baint Decoratia.

The law so modified gives the President un qualified power over hfe Cabinet, and also the power of “suspension,”—whloh General Butler yesterday admitted was a synonym for “removal,” —of officers during reoes3es, and the appointment of their successors, subject to the approval of tho Senate at its next seßEion. Why the greater portion of a month should have becen wasted upon this discussion can only be answered by a reference to the uni versal desire of all legislators to make speeches, and to exercise power. Toe coua - tty would have been more than satisfied with an absolute repeal of the law, be cause the country is determined to tiust in President Grant. It will be satisfied wiLh the amended law, because it is understood that President Grant is Baiisfiid with it, and for that reason without asking for any other. The settle ment leaves the Preiident free to act, and we may now look for as rapid a reorganization of the civil service as is consistent with a pro per investigation of the relative merits of the thousands of claims for Executive favor which have accumulated in the several De partments.

PHIUOSEAITIRE. It is said that there are pretty plain iaiiss lions that the passage of the Irish Church bUI by the English Parliament will be foi- j lowed by another piece of liberal legislation in the interest of reform. There is pending in the House of Commons a bill providing for the repeal of the law of primogeniture—a British institution which conservative Eag glishmen have always considered one of the bulwarks of the Government, bnt which the practical common sense of liberal men no w recognizes as hurtful and unjust. The law, in substance, provides that when a man dies possessed of real estate,of which he has abso lute ownership, without having made any disposition of it in his wil', the woole shill descend to his heir-at-law, who is defined to be “the eldest male among those of the same degree of kindred.” Ia other words, a man’s eldest son inherits all his property; and if there are no sons, the wife and daughters are left ia poverty; while the estate is transferred by the law to the next male relative, who - ever he may be. This unnatural provision is as old as Norman supremacy ia England, and is a worthy relic of feudal semi-barbarism, it is wholly in the interest of the aristocratic class, for the perpetuation of whose family names and titles it was designed. But it is oppressive to the people ; and now that their day of power has, at last, dawned, it is likely that they will strike down a system which discrimi nates against them. Sensible Englishmen of this age have not failed to scrutinize the results of the operation of this law, and to perceive how greatly they are at variance with the true interests of the nation. The | land is held as a monopoly by a small body I of men who thus have absolute control over ' the prices of food; who abuse tbeir power 1 over their tenants to advance selfish political designs; who devote vast tracts to purposes !of pleasure while their countrymen are i starving around them; and who, often, under the law of entail, are compelled to retain , ownership of land whioh is disproportionate i to their means, and which lies idle beoaase they cannot either improve it or sell it. The conduct of profligate young noblemen who, of late years, have squandered abroad ihe | wealth accumulated under the system of pri : mogeniture, also has contributed 11 the dis : gust of the people, and to the demand for a repeal; and the feeling has bee i intensified • by the increasing prominence of the middle classes, who, acquiring wealth, begin to manifest that universal human desire to pos sess land. Of course the whole of the opposition to the law comes from the plebeians; and only the most liberal of these. The gentry and nobility—from the lowest to the highest—will I favor retention of the ancient system. In | this they will be sustained by the conserva ! lives of the lower classes—bigoted, bullet headed Britons—who cannot unders and the excellence of any innovation, and who are j ever ready to declaim against the slightest attack upon that unsubstantial thing, the : British constitution. Even the friends of the ; bill are only mildly liberal. The bill provides system villi, at length,fall Into geucr&l disuse. Of the good effect of the bill the liberals havo no doubt, and the only question now Is, will it pass? Although some ferocious assaults have been mdde upon it in tho House of Commons, it has mot with much less opposition than was anticipated, and it is thought that nearly the whole liberal vote can bo counted upon In its favor. The liberal majority Is about 1 18,and, even allowing for defections from tho ranks, we may regard the success ol the measure as nearly absolutely certain. It will havo a harder time in the House of Lords, hut if the pc ere know that tho popular wish d3mands their affirmative action, they wßVhudfy ven lure to withhold it. But the osSJoofc is a gloomy one for them.

Tbe Honse then resumed the consideration of tbe bill to provide for tbe organization of a pro visional government for Mississippi. Mr. Ward, a member of the Reconstruction Committee, addressed tbe House in advocacy of tbe bill, which be regarded as necessary for the reconstruction ol the Slate of Mississippi. He expressed bis surprise at tbe position taken by tbe Democrats in opposition to the measnre, supposing them to have oeen adverse to all mili tary governments. Mr. Marshall explained that the Democratic members did not oppose tbe bill from any love of military government, but because they preferred even that to handing over an nnfortnnate people to the tender mercies of a sot of robbers, who represented no people, bnt merely soueht to prey upon tbe people of Mississippi. Mr. Ward went op to say that he was not so much surprised at tbe opposition to the bill de veloped by tbe gentlemen from Illinois and Mas snebusetts (Messrs. Farnsworth and Dawes), be cause he had observed their growing conservative tendencies; bnt tbat when the gentleman from Obio (Sebenck) advocated tbe same doctrine, be felt like addressing to bim the same exclamation, “ And thon too, Brntns!” He could not exactly account for his position. He spoke of tbe terrorism that existed in Missis sippi when tbe vote was taken on the Constitu tion, and declared that if the vote were fairly taken there wonld be an overwhelming majority for tbe Conetitntion. Tbe postponement of the question wonld only result to the benefit of traitors. He defended the Union mon of Missis sippi from tbe flings and aspersions to wbicb ibey were subject, as “carpet-baggers” and ‘ scalawags," and characterized them as earnest, raitbfn), brave men, who bad goue to work In dead earnest to frame a good government and reeonstrnct tbe Btnte of Mississippi. Mr. Maynard spoke in advocacy of the bill, apd characterized the position ot Messrs. Dawes :md Farnsworth as one which did gross id just Ice, unconsciously, he was aware, to Union man of Mississippi. The great mistake of the Govern ment during the war, and during the process of ri construction, was that It coarted and consulted its enemies In the South, and left its friends to take care of themselves In the bost way they could. To suppose that the rebeU were going lo reconstruct loyal governments in 'ho South was to suppose what wonld never happen. l'cnnsvlvanla l egislature. HAUutsnuao April 1.
