Miss ELIZABETH BLACKWELL NJ Dive

notice of this lady, in the New York Tribune,
that she has lately returned to that city, and
commenced the practice of her profession at
No. "A University Place, after an absence of
two years in Europe, one of which was spent
Us an inferno, or house physician, at the Ma
ternity Lyng-in Hospital, and the other in the
same capacity in the St Bartholomew Hospi-
tai, in London. Miss B. has also spent some
time with Preissnitz, at Graienberg, studying
the water-cure.
From what we chance to know of Miss Dr.
Blackwell, we do not hesitate to predict, that,
despite of her sex, she will take high rank in
the profession for which she has qualified her
self by so many years of hard study, and
against obstacles which would have appalled,
a female of ordinary courage and selfreance,
Apart from the excellence of her scientific at
tainments she is woman of intellect, of taste,
of liberal culture, and of rare amiableness-
itself noble quality in a physician. She is
also a good writer, in both prose and verse.

they at once arrested them. Ths uan and horses
were then taken back to the rancho Of Gage 4

was instituted. An examination was made ofths
brands on all the stock, aud the brands wers
identical with those used by that 6rm, and each

Gage 4 Almond, but by others in attendance.
The examination made at the corral, and
the evidence was perfectly satisfactory that the
ly dry and smooth, and exhibited conclusive evil
dencs that they had not been driven any dis
lance.
The prisoners were then araigned, and mo-
tion made to give them trial by jury, but the
proposition was hooted down by the incensed
crowd motion WAS then made that they be
hung at once, which was carried by acclamalion.
They were called on to make confession, be-
ing told that they had but half hour to prepare
for the solemn change that awaited them. They
gave their names James Baxter, Of Maine, and
Charles Simmons, Of Massachusetts,. The names,
however, may have been assumed. The prisoners
were then told that their time had nearly elapsed.
They seemed to be much excited, and begged,
"For Gods sake let us live little longer" Five
minutes more were given Them, during which
time one OF the prisoners called on the other, say
ing, in low tone of voice, "Let US tell them all
about IL, to which the other replied, "No, no.
hush."
When the half hour had elapsed, they were
told that their time had come. Lariats were
hung up! This took place at IL clock last night
(Friday) and their bodies were still suspended
this morning, when our informant left, although
persons were engaged in digging two graves.
