EIopement and Desertion.

About a month ago, a young man OF prepos-
sessing appearance and fortified with strong let
ters of recommendation to respectable parties in
this city, arrived here from the East, and made
arrangements with view of engaging in mer-
camille pursuits He formed a number of ac-
quaintances, and soon became intimate at the
house of worthy citizen, whose residence is in
married only few months previous to beau
tiful girl of IL, with whom he seemed to live
happily. The stranger, by his insinuating ad-
dress, succeeded in corrupting her, and gained
her consent to elope with him. The party took
passage on the steamer Herald, on the 9th inst,
and proceeded ON that boat to Cincinnati. Up
on arriving at that place, the faithless woman
discovered that Mr. Gibson (the name of her
deceiver,O was a worthless character, and only
known in the Queen City to the police and the
keeper of the minor gambling dens in that To-
cality. Finding that she had been victimized,
and ruined in a double sense, she had the
scoundrel arrested for vagrancy, and on the tri-
al was the principal witness against him. The
evidence was clear that he was gambler and
an associate of thieves, but from some unac-
countable cause the ordinance did not embrace
n case like his, and he was discharged. The
woman became repentant and telegraphed her
husband to come and take her home. Gibson at
once left the city, and for several days had not
been heard of by any of the ofhcers.-S. Louis

The Result of the Election.

The success of our party in the Union is in
deed gratifying. FRANK. PIERCE and WILLIAM
r. KING are elected by immense majorities.-
The result needs no comment. The figures
speak in thunder tones against the whig party.
We have carried the camp of the enemy by
storm, from Maine to California, and the judg-
ment of the people is strongly in favor of the
men and measures of the Democratic Party
The Democracy of the entire country have nobly
fought and nobly won great victory. The gall
liant Democracy of Cambria did their duty like
true and faithful soldiers in the democratic
ranks The result here is glorious one and
is deserving of the highest praise. Once more
we have Democra tic President-a man who
will discharge the duties of his office with credit
to himself and honor to his country.

DEMOCRATIC SONG.
A1R-"Old Folks at Home"

Way down upon the old Salt River,
Far far away,
There's where the wings are fixed forever,
There's where they're doomed to stay.
All up and down its whole extension
Sadly they roam,
Still groaning that the late election
Sent them from the White House at home.
CHoRUs-An the wings are sad and dreary,
Every where they roam, weary,
Singing Brothers, how my heart grows
Far from the White House at home.
All round the White House we have wandered
THUS do they rave,)
Many q dollar for votes have we sqandered,
Many an Office gave.
Then when we were q cheerful giver,
Fillmore was their cry,
Now they've rowed us up Salt River,
There to politically die.
CHoRUs-AIl the wings, &c.
One little spot is all that's left us,
Where we now stay!
OF all our pickings they bereft US,
Then sent us far away.
When shall we have again our places,
Live on the public comb,
When shall we dare to show our faces
Down at the White House at home.
CHoRUs-All the wings, sc.

ALucky Presentiment.

A correspondent of the Alexandria Gazette,
speaking of a late visit to England says
81 had gone to Gravesend with the view ofta-
king passage, but incident prevented. A
white swan, worthy to perform his flight through
the Milky way came near the vessel in which it
was my design to sail, and her commander took
his gun. The sequel we need not MENTION
The blood of the dead bird stained the river
We had Just been fresh from reading the Ancient
Mariner. in which the vessel encountered heavy
calamities after the killing of an albatross, and
the circumstance determined me not to go with
such n barbarian You will smile at my super
stition, you may even go through Lausanne and
tell the incident, but don't forget to add that
the vessel from whose deck the bird was shot
has been missing from that time. She perished
with all on board

A NIiser's Legacy.

The Queen of England recently received a be-
quest of half million sterling from one of her
deceased subjects, Mr.. Nield. The New York
Post thus condenses the story:
Nield was a barrister at law, and died in
Chelse aged y years He was possessed of an
immense fortune, but was of very eccentric and
penurious habits At the death of his father,
thirty years since, he came into possession of
about s25O, 900, which sum had not been touch
ed up to the period of his death. The deceased
was never known to wear great coat. He u
sually dressed in blue coat with metal but
tons, which he prohibited being brushed, as it
would take off the nap and deteriorate It's value.
He held considerable landed property in Kent
and Bucks, and was always happy to receive an
invitation from his tenantry to visit them, which
he occasionally did, often remaining month at
A time, and he was thus enabled to add to his
savings. His appearance and manners led
strangers to imagine that he was in the lowest
verge of penury, and their compassion was ex-
cited in his behalf an instance of which may be
mentioned.
Just before the introduction of the railway
system of travelling, the deceased had been
visit to some of his estates, and returning
to London, when the coach stopped at Farming
ham. With the exception of our miser the pas
sengers all retired to the Inn. Missing their
coach companion and recollecting his decayed
appearance, they conceived he was in distressed
circumstances and accordingly sum of money
was subscribed, and humping glass of brandy
and water was kindly sent out to the poor
gentleman, which he thankfully accepted. Ma
ny instances of a similar character might be re-
lated A few days before his death the deceas-
ed told one of his executors that he had made a
most singular will, but the property was his
own he had done as he pleased with it. The
executors are the Keeper of the Privy Purse for
the time being, (Dr. Tatten,) and Mr.. J. Ste
vens, of Willesborough
deceased has left the whole of his immense for
tune to ''Her Most Gracious Majesty Queen
Victoria, begging Her Majestys most gracious
acceptance of the same, for her sole use and
benefit of her heirs, &C." The property is es-
timated at upwards of $780, 900. For some
years before his death, Mr.. Neld scarcely al
lowed himself the common necessaries and COM
forts of life, and has left poor old housekeep-
er, who was with him more than twenty six
years, without the smallest provision or ack-
nowledgement for her protracted and far from
agreeable or remunerative services.
The Queen has refused to accept the gift.

In speaking of the conclusion of the sale of the
city lots advertised by the Commissions of the
funded debt of San Francisco, the Herald says:
''This property has realised TO the city $2040 900
and the proceeds viii suffice, not only to redeem
all the outstanding three per cent scrip, but will
be amply sufficient to pay the November interest
on the funded debt, and possibly leave something
to be appropriated to the sinking fund
The mail steamship Tennessee left San Fran
cisco on the 1st of October, with 435 passengers,
and 50, 373, $50 in gold dust-the largest ship
ment by any one steamer this year.

Important Arrest--CIay Medal Probably
Found.

A despatch from Baltimore states that the
Hanoverian Consul at that place has received in
formation of the arrest in Hanover of man
named Frederick Nolecke, recently returned
from this country, and having in his possession
$4,000 in American gold, large gold medal,
and quantity of valuable jewelry, the manner
of acquiring which he would give satisfacto-
ry account of. He was an old convict in Hano-
yer, and whilst in this country was arrested
several times. He resided principally in Phila-
delphia and Baltimore.
1t is thought he may have been concerned in
the Portsmouth (Va.) Bank robbery, and that
the medal in his possession may be the celebra-
ted Clay medal stolen in New York.
