A NARROW ESCAPE FROM BEING A CANDI-
DATE.-The Trenton State Gazette sa, that
Commodore Stockton had narrow escape
from being the Democratic candidate for The
Presidency. On Friday, number of the
States. among which was Virginia, became
tired of voting for the old candidates, and sat-
isfed that it was necessary to go for some new
man, and that they determined 10 vote for any
one whom the Virginia delegation might agree
upon.
That delegation discussed the question on
day morning. They were nearly equally di-
vided between Stockton and Pierce; but, on
taking the vote among themselves, Pierce ob.
tained a small majority, and the delegation
therefore led off for him. 1t adds, that major
ity of the New Jersey delegates were opposed
to him, and two ofthem steadily refused till
the last to vote for him.

AEEcDoTE OF ALBoSI.-The arrival Of Mad
am Alboni in this country renders the publ.
cation of the following anecdoie at this time
peculiarly interesting.
Madame Alboni, the celebrated prima dom
ma, has an individuality apart in the domain Of
artists. She has not only purest and most ad-
mrable Of voices, but the most independent
character, the most original mind, the most
generous heart upon the stage.
Her life is full Of adventures as creditable
TO her modesty as to her talents. Here is
one:
After her most brilliant success in capitals.
Mime. Alboni goes to seclude herself in some
obscure chalet, and leads there a rural life in
all its simplicity, laborng and harvesting with
the peasants, and distinguishing herself only by
her charming liberality.
few years since, the director of an Italian
theatre, who knew her only by reputation.
crossed the Tyrol to seek her at Berlin, where
he believed her TO be still at the Royal Opera.
Passing one evening by u cottage, he heard,
amid the silence, a voice which seemed to come
from Heaven. He stops-he lisiens-he is in
ecstacy. He has never heard anything so per-
feet.
"Here is fortune for me-" said he to him
self. And leaving his post chaise, he enters
the cottage, under the pretext of an accident.
He finds there four peasants, and at first can
not distinguish the songstress, so equal and
fraternal is the simplicity of all. He at last
recognizes her by her voce-reveals his name
talks of music-obtains one, two, three

very highest order-and, graciously encour-
aging, makes a proposition which he thinks
superb-ten thousand francs for fifty represen-
tations.
at is too little," replied the peasant, to his
great surprise. II am resolved not to quit
this chalet for less than twenty thousand
francs."
"Diavolo! Do you know, mademoiselle,
that it is half of what was going 10 offer at
Berlin to the celebrated Alboni?
"Does she sing better than myself?"
II do not say so; but you are unknown"

ou can take ME or leave me, sir. | support

l cannot leave them without being sure of their
subsistence"
In short, the director signed and promised to
return in a month.
AT Berlin, he found only Nine. Alboni's
agent. The latter engaged her for fifty re pre-.
thousand francs.
''And now." said the empreSdriO, "where
shall find the illustrious prma donna 2"
sin the Tyroi, at the village Of"
The director was stupefed. 1t was there
that he had discovered the peasant.
He arrives at the chalet, and learns that the
prima donna and the peasant girl are one and
the same person.
''If you pay little dear for the fifty repre-.
seDlations of Alboni, said the amiable artistic
to him, "you have made a good bargain with
the fifty of Tyrolian and so have L." added
she, looking at her humble companions, "for
you will pay me the twenty thousand francs
agreed upon, which shall leave as dowry
to these young girls and their mother. So
every body will he satisfied"
