A NEW STATE.—The Minnesotian, of St.
has a long and eloquent article on the
fature of the great Northwest. It gives us
the first intimation we have received,ithat the
Legislature of Michigan has passed at act pro
vi ling kr tie_ formation of the new F.tate r
Territory of Superior Two years ago Wiscon
sin pissed an act granting the northern part
of its territory to this new Stata. It will ex
tend from Hee wei•tern point of Lake Superior,
embracing all the southein shore thereof, to
the St. Mary's river, and the northern por
tions of Lakes Huron and Michigan. The
'Sant' will be on its eastern border, and the
great mines of copper and iron will 'to on its
•noethern line.' Its western boundary will be of
the most interesting, wealthy, and important
portions of the Union.
The States of Michigan and Wisconsin being
agreed to this arrangement, Congress, by vir•
tue of the power vested In it by the 3d section
o f the 4th article of the Constitution, ham au
thoritg, to erect it into a territory, or to admit
it, at once, as a State.

Ii •The Governor of Massachusetts has re
fused to agree to the actress of ; the Legislature
asking for the removal of Judge Loring from
the office of Judge of Probate. Judge Loring,
it will be remembered, while acting tis:a,
Uni
ted States Cominissiouer, restored the fugitive
Burns to his master, a decision which produc
ed 'some disturbance in •I - Seston among the
Anti-Slavery portion of the population, To
punish him for that decision the present Le.
giislature addressed the Governor for his re
moval from the aide of probate, ivhich be also
holds. The Governor refuses to - agree to the
address, because the Legislature has no right
to remove a judge et,their mere wish, and
without cause As tii&Governor interprets the
constitution, the Jo ages hold office during
good behavior, and are removed by impeach
ment for crime, and by address for any dispen
sation Of Psovidence- that mlkes them.
,withl
out criminality, incompetent to perform the
duties of their office. It •is sot alleged that
Judge Loring.has committed any crime against
the laws of the United. States ur.uf:Mnesaeliq
setts. It is not alleged that he is rendered
unfit for the perfurtnanCe of the duties of his
office by-insanity, physical incapacity, or any
other visitation of Providence.
The reasoning of the Governor is good and
4ound, and the attempt of the 11164snekusetts
f;egistature •to nullify the constitution and
laws of the United States has been rebuked
by the Goyernor.
