A WoNAN DISGUISED AS a MAH.-The Pitts
burgh (Pa.) papers are full of the adventures of
& young woman who for some years past has
figured in there as a dashing young man. Her
true history appears to be as follows:-She was
married in Rochester, n. Y, some years ago, but
hcr husband becoming jealous, had her arrested
and imprisoned. Escaping from him, she assum-
cd the garb of a man and obtained employment
Subsequently she ran . whole season as cabin
boy on tho river, and 1859 went to work with
Mr. Tim, = whipinaker, in Pittsburg, where she
remained for two years during which time she
was notcd for her gallantry to the fair sex, treat
ing them t. ICES, confectionery, &c. After this
she kept a fruit and cake store in that city, but
left in a Eow months, and has likely turned in
whip ruauufactory in Wcstield, Mass, where
her sex vas discovered. In all her wandeFings
Up to this time, her secret was never suspected,
and It Is to be regretted she was not able to re-
main undiscovered ndearn an honest living un-
der the protection Of male attire.

WHO MOULD BE ELECTED
PRESIDENT BY THE HOUSE
OF REPRESENTATIVE ?

We deem it proper to put this question and
answer it; so that We may correct the ignorance
or render abortve the maliceof the Washington
Union, the Missouri Republican, the st. Louis
Pilot, and al the organs of the Dougias-Pierce
faction This faction, Judging of honest men
its own standard, and incapable of understand
ing or approaching public virtue, says, through
its many mouth-pieceS that Col Benton's Pur-
pose in accepting the nomination for Governor
of Missouri IS to throw the Presidential election
into the House of Representatives, with the
knowledge that the House would elect Fremont.
This conclusion they based upon the election OF
Banks to the Speakcrship. "Thc same House, y
SAY they (which voted Banks into the Chair,
would-vote Fremont into tAe White House.
This would be certainly true if a simple MAORI
ty of the members could elect the President as
well as the Speaker; but the former can onlybe
elected by a aagjority Of the States. Thus
speaks the Constitution upon this subject
"But in choosing tie President the e0te shall
be tdEeu 6y StQtes-he RepTeSeHtatires from
edeh adsiag but one rote."
In the election o fthe Speaker, tits man against
man; in the Election of the President, 1t IS State
against State. In the election ofSPeaker, New
York having SO members, has nearly five times
the strength of Missouri, which has but q; in the
election of President, Missouri is equal to New
York.
If neither of the Presidential candidates now
before the people receive a majority of the cleo
toral votes the duty of making the choice will
devOlvc upon the present House Of Representa-
tives. Every State that voted for Aiken would
vote for buchanan, and every State that voted
for Banks would declare for Fremont. 1t Is true
that Fillmore could be elected by the House, be-
cause he will doubtless be third in the race, un-
less he withdraws, but no new man could be
choscn-thc Constitution combining the House
to one of the three highest voted for by the cleo
tors. The protracted struggle last winter, gives
US ample assurance, however, that the contest
would be between Fremont and buchanan.
by analyZing the vote which elected Banks,
and grouping it into States, we find the severed
States "a ted ne follows:
