A Stron. Minded Woman.

The Amnzonian movement on this side of the
water, which has hth> rto only ripened into a
very spccious theory with us, has been reduced
to practice in the old world. The correspondent
of the London Times gives an instance worthy of
note, if not of emulation. We would call part;c-
ular attention to the costume of the fair Eastern
Amazon. May it not be considered an improve
mcnt on the Bloomer?
The celebrated Futma-Quara- Hanum, who. it
will be remembers l, went through Constantinople
about ten months ago, at the head of 500 Balchi
Bouzouks, has just returned on her way to Kur-
distan. This heroine has been abandoned bv the
great number of men whom she had equipped
and brought out of Asia Minor. She returns
home with feeble suite Of about dozen Balch
Bouzouks, who have remained faithful to her.
She has visited Riz, Pacha, the Minister of War.
who received her with military honors. She wears,
a loose pair of blue trowsers a cashmere turban
red boots, with very long spurs, waistcoat en-
broid' red with pearls and gold, and waist belt.
which OF itself is perfect arsenal of weapons.
n spacious cloak Of red cloth, similar to that
worn by the French Spahs, envelopes her in its
coopous folds. Her wrinked face, and her sharp
Piercn eye, are almost entirely buried beneath
her enormous head dress. She returns the mil
itary salutes given her with perfect ease and cour

Gnxernor af New Yorie.

The New York Times of thelSt says, 'sthe Of
fetal returns from all the counties except New
York have been we'll sfted, and, giving the out
side figures to Seymour in the city, the State re-
suit is clear majority for Myron H. Clark for
Governor, of 26S votes" The number of votes
cast is near 100000, and the coseness of the run
is almost unparalleled, and the efforts made to
defeat Clark and elect Seymour, were perhaps
never exceeded. The great point of contention
was Prohibitory Liquor Law, which Clark will
approve, when again passed, and which Seymour
would have again vetoed. All the Wing State
Ticket is elected, Raymond's plurality for Lieut..
Governor being about 10000.

Cy Judson's Hotel in New York was not at
the time Of its destruction, under the manage
ment Of Curtis Judson, as he had sold his interest
in it, previous to opening his new House the
s'Brcvoort," in the Fifth Avenue. The Brevoort
is built upon gr: unds formerly used by the father
Of the family of that name, as garden spot up
on which was raised much of the vegetable mat
ter consumed in the city when its population was
much smaller. The rapid rise in real estate, has
made each member of the family millionaire
and the "Brevoort," stands side by side with the
''Astor'' and the Lcnnox, in that great metropo-
lis. Grace Church is also built upon lots pur-
chased of them.

Wisconsin Election.
The Slave Trade.


The Slave Trade.
The New York Tribune is of the opinion that
SLAYER is fitted out in that city every two weeks.
This opinion is based upon the facts brought to
light in the recent trial of Captain Smith,
charged with being engaged in the slave trade
The same testimony was borne by Mr.. McKeon,
the District Attorney in his summing up Smiths
case. The Tribune SAYS:
'sThere are now in New York, wallowing in
wealth, living in sumptous palaces up town, and
driving splendid equ;pages, men called merchants,
'mcrchat princes is Il term sometimes applied
VIII" have for years, un;nteriuptcdly, been engaged
in the internal trade, and who, if they had
deserts, according to Ian, would be swinging on
a galloy;s as high as llaman. BY chance, the way
is now opened; one william is finally convicted let
the authoriti,s do their duty, and score or
hundred more may be found equally guilty.
The verdict of this Jury, and sentence of death
that will probably be passed on the convicted sla-
yer. only 4 into more striking contrast the abom-
nations of our domestic slave-tradc. We hang
Capt. Smith, and the public sentiment approves
the punishment, while men who deal rot in brute
Africans, but in native Americans, and their sons
and daughters to boot, are honored as Judges,
Generals, and Congressman. 1t is 4 strange world,
and the model Republic is not the least Of its pc
culiaritics."

L. II r61 EAhxeRN WAR.
q Thes nsil bss lnotkia& new as regards the
hstern War IL housver confirms previous ac-
'6ounts. hThe s1ugkle before Sebastopol will be
Abloody one, bit we tbislEnust terminate in ia
%or ofthe allies. (Stiirscr situation is not free
from peril. They have walls before them and
war behind3 and in this situation should any
thing occur by which they should be deprived the
cooperation of their fleet their condition would
be critical indeed; and nothing short of mira,
Gle of strategy could extricate them. While their
flank is Lowered by their feet they may continue
the siege with good hopes Of success. Lord Rag
Ian, it is said has very prudently determined not
to storm the place until the last moment. In this
we think he evnces a sound discretion. An as
sault upon a strongly fortified post garrisoned by
some 10000 Russians is no light matter, and
should not be undertaken without the certainty Of
success. But more especially is this the case
when the. besieging army is in turn, besieged by
an equal if not superior force. In case the allies
should attempt to carry, the place by storm and
be repulsed nothing but the utmost stupidity or
the most paltry cowardice, neither of which are
attributes of the Russian commanders, could save
IL
The next foreign arrival, We think, will bring
news of terrible battle, and will be looked for
by those who feel an interest in European affairs.
By looking over our files we observe in many
instances a considerable change of sentiment in
favor of Russia. Many look upon it as merely a
contest between dcspotisms. In one sense it may
be so, as most of those directly engaged in it de-
serve no other name. But there is a great princi-
pie underlying this mattcr-and that is nationality
with that principle we always sympathize where
ever found. That principle is found on the side
of Turkey. On the part Of Russia it is aggres-
sion she attacks-the Turk defends and We have
faith that he will triumph. But should Russia
be compelled to make peace, is Turkey safe from
England and France,-we fear not.
One good result would follow the defeat Of the
allies. 1t might compel them to fall back upon
the revolutionary element for support, and in that
case the resurrection of Hungary, Poland and It.
ally would be in the bounds of probability, con-
srmation devoutly to be wished for by every friend
of freedom. tr- .....-,....,. 30. ..

1t has been supposed, that Great Britain would
object to the transfer of the Sandwich Islands to
the United States, but it is probable that such
a view is erroneous. In proof of this, we find it
stated in the Albany Evening Journal, tina. in
the curly part of September, g the English Goa
sui at Honolulu received a dispatch from his
Government, directing him to inform the King
that, in the event of any disturbance in the Is
land, he would receive no aid from the English
Government, whose entire resources were re-
quired for the prosccutionof the war with Russia.
Such dispatch, at the time when it was known
that negotiations were going on for the transfer
of these Islands to the United States, can be
easily construed into Il turn of the cold shoulder
directly in Our favor. The Journal SAYS, the
only serious opposition to the annexation comes
from Prince Alexander heir apparent to the
throne: and that, his hostility arises from the
fact, that while travelling in this country, few
years ago, on board New York and Boston
steamboat, the Prince was not PERMITTED to take
his scat at tho supper table on account Of his
color! For this indgnity he is implacable, and
wishes to transfer the sovereignty to England.
Notwithstanding this opposition, it was hoped,
says tho Journal, at the date of the last advices,
that treaty of annextion, would by signed in a
few days.-Gdlena Adr.

GENERAL SHrELDs.-The Philadelphia Ledger,
OF late date, announces, that General Shields is
about to take the lead in new enterprise for the
colonization of the Mosquito coast, in Central
America. The New York Tribune says, that
" this enterprise is nothing less than another
form of the so-called Central American Land
Mining Company, in which the Attorney General
Of the United States is directing spirit, and of
which Senator Cooper, of Pennsylvania, was to
have been the agent in Central America; but cir
cumstances having prevented his going there, the
Senator from Illinois takes his place." The Tri-
bune says the grant under which the Company
act is worthless, and that Greytown was burnt
to favor the above project. The reason given is
worthy Of such an act The Company win prob
ably make show of e6ecting something, but will
finally fail. --5-3 ee-e.i -. a.. g

Anti-Nebraska mai. Nebraska mai.


In the 9th district there was but one candidate
in the fed, and We have allowed there Nebraska
majority of 5000, which is a little more than the
majority of which Pierce had over Scott in the
district, two years ago.
We think Moore (Nebraska) is elected State
Treasurer, from the fact that Miller was brought
oat at so late period, that in the lower part Of
the State it was not known that he was Il candi-
date.
THE LEG: sLATrRE.-Thc House of Representa-
tivcs is Anti-Nebraska by some fifteen majority,
and the Senate stands Anti Nebraska l3, Nebras-
ka l2-makiny majority on joint ballot Of six
teen.
The result, therefore, may be summed up:

We were not present at the meeting to organize
a Board of Trade, ION Wednesday evening last,
but are informed by asgcntlcman who vas pres
ent, that there was quite respectable number in
att enhance, and che utmost good feeling prevailed.
From the suggestions made by the various speak
crs, II would seem that wide field of usefulness
is open to the Board when formed.
One gentleman suggested that an important
duty of the Board would BE- to regulate the cur
'rency somewhat the manner that the Suffolk
Bank does the thing up in New England, which
bank, he said, refused the notes of all Banks
whose issues exceeded the proper limits. Another
speaker proposed that the regulation OF the prices
of freight on steamboats, would como within the
legitimate sphere of its powers. While third
proposed the establishment of a line Of packets
to connect with the Chicago and Galena Air Line
Road at Savanna. Many other useful and feast
Bile proposit. IONS were doubtless made.
We think if the Boarl takes hold of and settles
these questions satisfactorily, their success will
exceed the most sanguine expectations of its pub
lie spirited projectors.

Governor Of New YORK.

The last reports from New York, says the Ga

of Clark, the Wing candidate, for Governor. This
news is probably correct, though it should not be
taken as absolutely positive. A few votes only
divide him and Seymour.
