EXHIBITION OF MANUFACTURES.
OfCotton and Woollen factory goods we had
no exhibition, with the exception of Satinetts.
The reasons which have operated to prevent,
for few years past, any exhibition in these
important branches of Domestic Industry, are
well set forth in the report of the committee,
ulfier whose cognizance such articles come.
But the articles Of Household Manufacture were
abundant and various, exhibiting not only taste
and skill in the fabrication, but considerable
improvement in some articles over those pre-
sented in former years. There were also some
fine specimens of Cutlery, and other articles
from the workshops of our mechanics. But
we have not time nor space to 60 into any par
ticuar notice of the manufactured articles, even
to name those most worthy of commentator,
but must refer our readers to the reports of the
committees, which we shall forthwith publish

DELAWARE ELECTION. We announced the
election of Milligan, the National Republican
Candidate for Congress from Delaware last
week. We then mentioned that he received
majority in every county This turns out to
be Eot entirely correct. In New Castle, where
the Jackson majority last year was 512, it
was three this year for member to Congress,
while the republican ticket for the Legislature
was chosen by handsome majority. The rea-
son of this difference was the great personal
popularity of Ridgely, the Jackson candidate
The State Legislature stands: In the Senate

.ardianches or Mountain Slides Tho late
storm Of rain in Vermont, and. New Hamp-
shire, was of 80 long continuance that in
Essex CO. N. II. the soil Of some steep as
cents became loosened, and descended a
great distance with much violence. The
principal slides were four. The first de-
scended about one and half miles The
second and third were somewhat similar, but
more destructive in their effects the fourth
descended about three miles with degree
of violence and fuzzy which defies descrip-
ton. 10 width il varied from to 90 rods,
bearing on its surface the most tremendous
rocks, trees, &c, and carrying desolation
and death in its passage. A Mr.. Walton and
his wife were overtaken by the avalanche ut
n bridge. The female was carried down the
stream few rods, and t,ro--u without the
path Of the slide, stripped of all her apparel,
her leg broken, one foot crushed in pieces,
and her whole body covered with bruises, in
which state she crawled in the direction of q
house, till she was near enough, when the
storm abated, to render her cries audible to
the family. Her husband was buried in the
rubbish about twenty rods below, where he
was found and his remains committed to the
tomb. The wildness of the scenery in the
vicinity of these destructive avalanches has
long been subject of remark With travel
iers, but it is said now to present a view in
descrlbably grand and terrific. Mountain,
laid bare for two or three miles in extent
presenting chasms of vast size rocks, som,
ct which are supposed to weigh an hundred
tons, torn from their beds, where they hac
rsposed for ages, 81 transported two OF thre,
miles, and trees of all dimensions splinteree
to atoms, and forming huge chaotic masses
altogether appears sufficient to overwhslu
the senses of the beholder.
