uFAn English lady, Mrs. Hamilton re-
Gently crossed the Alps, feat never before
performed by female, though attempted by
Md'lle D'Augeville, and also by a peasant
girl, a native of Italy. The New York
Times, in recording the extraordinary feat
remarks:
THE WONDERS OF WoMASHooD.-The
age is doing much for women, but women
are doing more for themselves. II Is hard
to say what they are not undertaking and
accomplishing. Go where they will, men
meet them in the field of open rivalry. Once,
the sterner sex wrote all the books, but now
the most popular literature comes from the
daughters OF Eve. Once, we were safe be-.
hind the entertainments Of newspapers; we
are safe no more. Once, the pulpit was
ours; it is now divided empire. We made
final stand in pantaloons. We rallied our
fighting forces there. We defed assault
from behind that formidable battery. 1t was
no use; the thing was sham. mockery, a
failure; we were beaten in the stronghold
of centuries. One hope was left us-one
solitary hope. 1t rose high among the clouds.
1t was mountain among mountains, but the
Alp of Alps has been taken. Mont Blanc
surrendered to woman.

Tha 'Keaulf.

Enough is already known of the results
In the different Congressional districts in the
State. to determine that-."the People" have
achieved substantial triumph in Indiana
The only free State which the Douglas Dem
ocracy had left TO "swear by," the acknowl-
edged "battle ground of the campaign"
where the administration has directed Its
entire forces and spent all its spare thunder,
has most nobly repudiated the Nebraska
swindle.
Our returns leave no doubt about major
ity of the anti-Nebraska candidates for Con-
gress being elected. This result has been
long contemplated in many of the districts,
and the only regret we feel, is in not being
able to add another to the Peoples list of
Congressman, from the First District. To
have hoped for such result, however, was
almost to hope against hope, considering the
overwhelming Democratic majority in the
District, and the desperate and unpreceden-
ted struggle OF the Democracy, aided by
their administration "auxiliaries," to carry
the district for Miller.
Col. Miller is doubtless elected, and will
enter the next Congress with the compl-
pliment from his constituents, of a majority
reduced at least tioo thousand votes. This is
his endorsement, and we envy not his posi-
ton. The State ,0iH be represented by good
men, and true; and if Dir. Miller choos IS to
again lend his vote and feeble energies 10
promote the interests and protect the insti.
tutions of other States, at the sacrifice of his
own, we shall still be well represented.
Our able standard bearer, Hon. Samuel
Hall, has borne the contest nobly and man
fully, and we believe now, as we have since
his nomination, that he was the strongest
man that could have been selected in the
district for the race. MIR. Halls able and
heightened bearing has endeared him to
thousands in the District, who before knew
but little of him. The First District has
made gallant fight for him, but the over.
whelming Democratic majority, although
greatly reduced, could not be entirely over.
come. We therefore bow with respectful
submission to the will of the majority who
differed with US upon the issues involved in
the contest.

SHORT PATENT SERMoN.-Perhaps it may
not be amiss to remind you of the printer in
my discourse. He is in very disaereeable
situation. He trusts everybody, he knows
not whom, his money is scattered every
where, and he scarcely knows where to look
for it. His paper, his ink, his type, his jour-
neymen's labor, his living, &C., must be pune.
tually paid for. You, NJ, and Mir,
and hundred others could name have ia
ken his paper, and you, your children and
your neighbors have been amused and in
formed, and improved by it. II you miss one
paper you would think very hard of the prn-
ter-you would rather be without your best
meal than be deprived for your newspaper.
Have you ever complied with the terms of
your subscription! Have you taken as much
pains TO furnish the printer with his money
as he has to furnish you with his paper!-
Have you paid him for his type, and his press
and his hands work. If you have not, 90
pay him off.-DoD. Jr.

A NORTH CAROLINA FISH ToRY.-"N," of
Arkansas, in a letter to the Gazette and
Democrat, tells the following amusing fish
story:
Some North Carolinians were once SEM
ing either in or near the waters of President
Pierce's constitutional river, Cape Fear
They caught any quantity of herring, but a
single rock fsh-he was one of them, how
ever. II was an easy matter to devide the
herring-making the piles to correspond with
the number of fisherman, one of them turn
ed his back to them, and in answer TO the
questions who should have this? and this |!
soon settled the behring's. But now came
the tug of war-how was the rock fish 10 be
divided! 1t happened with due Difference to
the good old north State, )that but one man in
the crowd could read, write or CIPHER. He was
selected. With that modesty which ever
accompanies true merit ard learning, he
fought little shy Of the honor but he was
bound to make the division. So at it he
| went. Said he nought from nought and
nothing remains. Two and three are five,
four times tour are sixteen and carry one
three times nine are twenty and car
| ry two-twelvc times twelve are one humid
red and forty-four and carry fourteen--boys
it's my fish. No complaint escaped not a
murmur. Every one acquiesced in the de.
lcision-still, one fellow could not help say
ling, "larnin' is great thing" TO which
another responded. swell it ar"
