come itmust. Then shall Woman 60 forth,
free and strong-brave and beautiful-self-
respecting and self-reliant-worthy to take
up the crown and sceptre, and enter upon
that royal position in the scale of Being,
which God designed for her " from the
foundation of the world" The age is grow
ing wiser-as is evidenced by the recogni-
ton of her claims. The avenues of en-
ployment, so long barricaded against her,
bristling with the bayonets of Old Gus
toms Imperial Guard, (alias steel pens in
unworthy hands, have been thrown down,
and the weapons of their guardians, corro-
ded by the gall that flowed from them,
have become either inoffensive or entirely
useless. The iron gates of Trade are slow
ly swinging open to her, the broad fields
of Agriculture are waving her welcome,
the marble portals of Art even now stand
ajar, inviting her to enter,-with unshod
feet she has been allowed to pass into the
sacred mosques of Science,-and the sweet
choral strain which comes echoing down
the long aisles of Literature's proud tenn
pie, tells that she has entered into its
"holies of holes" bearing heart-offerings
of Poesy and Song, All is not awarded
her that will be,-she is waiting-and God
be praised that it is her privilege to
"wait" in hope .! But the subject grows
upon my mind, and / pause, awed by it's
immensely. The tiny "Iron Needle-wo-
man" and her results, are like the visual
angel whose apex is in human eye, but
whose base may span the broad blue
heaven, and rest among the stars

Calling OF. the Hounds.

The Memphis appeal, decidedly one of the
most discreet and sagacious democratic jour
mails in the South, and apparently ever we'll
posted touching the wishes of the leaders who
manage the party, joins the Richmond South,
and other democratic organs in their efforts
to heal the breach in the northern democratic
ranks, caused by the adherence of Mn. DOUGLAS
TO his construction of the principles of the
as-Nebraska bill. We subjoin an article
on the subject from the AppeaI of the Sd inst,
and commend it to the attention of those
Americans who, never at loss for faith, have
INDUCED the belief that, in the next Presiden-
tial campaign DOUGLAS and his followers
would be found enlisted against the sham de-
moeracy. They may now dismiss that belief;
for it needs no gift of prophecy to foretell
that before another year has passed away, the
split in the democracy on the Lecompton is
sue will be closed up, and DOUGLAS again a
potential champion of the principles and poll
cy of the party. Some few of the organs in
the South, desiring to destroy DOUGLAS alto
gether, that other leaders may catch glimpse
of the nomination for the Presidency IN 1860,
through the gap made by his destruction, may
endeavor to prevent a reconciliation, but they
will fail. The salvation of the party is para
mount to the services and claims of AARON V.
BROWN, ANDY JOHNSON, JEFF DAVIS, and the
thousand and one other aspirants for the sue
cession to Mr.. BUCHANAN. Unless the party be
saved, there can be no succession and no spOils
Reconciliation is, therefore, matter of necessi
ttya mil h. taA hot
appeal fully comprehends the present posi-
tion of the party, and foresees the inevitable
result of protracting the war upon the anti
LecOmpton branch. north, constituting as it
does the majority of the party in that section,
and, like a good tactcian it recommends such
a change OF policy as the importance of the
occasion requires. The LecomptOn democracy,
north, are .admonished to adapt their re-
sources and power to the new emergency
and of course, let DOUGLAS have his way. If
they DON'T he will have his way any how. and
the party will be rent to atoms Already in
Indiana, Mr.. FOLEY, the author of the classic
epistle which recently went the rounds of the
papers as Literary curiosity" has been
thrust aside to make room for an anti-Lecomp-
ton democrat. and in the 9TH district, SECREsT
another anti-Lecompton man, has received the
party nomination. These little incidents show
the direction of the current, what is doing,
and must be done, in the "new emergency"
which has opened to the party. "Lccompton'
and "Anti-Lecompton," must no longer dis
turb the general harmony-they must be es-
chewed, ignored.

The Louisville Democrat endearors to take
away from the administration of Mr.. FILLMORE
the credit of the economical expenditure OF
public money which distinguished it. The
Democrat says
But. in truth Mr. Fillmore didn't regulate
the expenses of his administration. During
his whole term there loas Democratic Congress
that controlled all The expenses nor could Mr..
Fillmore, or any other President, use dollar
that was not appropriated by Congress; and
he used all that was appropriated.
Here the credit that is due to Mr.. FILLMORE
is claimed for democratic Congresses. This is
one democratic plea. On the other hand, the
Union and american attributes the extravagant
expenditures of the PIERCE and BUCHANAN adj
ministratIons to public works, &c. commenced
in Mr.. FuI.MoRE's term. This is another de-
mocratic plea. If the Democrat is correct,
the Union and american is wrong and to de-
mocratic Congresses are due the legacies our
neighbor would have us believe PIERCE and
BUCHANAN inherited from Mr.. FILLMORE.

This great work, although it finds especial
favor with professional men and the clergy,
Is not intended for them alone Far from it.
Whilst it may be of peculiar benefit to them,
it is work which should be in the family
library of all classes of society. The merchant,
whilst he pursues his business avocations. it
is not to be presumed, feels that he has no
bearing upon his employment, for he knows
that though he may be admitted into refined
society, he cannot either shine or appear to
advantage there, unless he has full share of
such information as can only be got by
reading. SO with the mechanic, and the
farmer. All of them are aware that without
the knowledge which comes from books, how
ever great are ones Datural gifts of intellect,
he cannot fill his position in life, as he ought
to fill it. But few of them have time to 90
through an extensive course of reading, and
they confess the disadvantages which they are
thus compelled to rest under. A book like
this Cyclopadia must therefore be of more
real advantage to them than to the profess
sional man, inasmuch as it furnishes them
with authentic information upon vast variety
of topics-embracing, the whole range of
literature, science, philosophy, politics.
religion, history, geography, biography,
&C., so condensed as to be made available; and
yet not so brief as to do injustice to any
topic. 1t is truly condensation into fifteen
volumes of what would require researches
into thousands of volumes. We have no
doubt when they have thought upon the sub
ject, many of our merchants, mechanics. and
farmers will take steps to get this invaluable
work. Mr.. MERRILL, the Agent of the Pub
fishers, is still in this city, and any order
will reach him that may be left with w. T.

BuJwer Confronted by his Wife at the
HartfOrdshire Election.
From the London Morning Star.


| A most painful scene occurred at Hartford
on Tuesday, the 18TH Toward the close OF
| the proceedings of the Hartfordshire election
just after Sir Edward had concluded his adj
dress with fervent tribute of admiration 10
/ the wOmanly beauty exhibited in the long
| line of open carriages, chases and divans
drawn up in front of the hustmgs, there was
| an unwOnted stir in the crowd, which parted
to admit of the passage OF a hired brOugham
| from one of the town inns. The carriage
having stopped, two ladies alighted, one of
! them an extremely handsome woman of about
| forty-fve years of age, with fresh complexion,
and with eyes of dazzling beauty. The lady,
who was evidently laboring under excitement
which exercised all her powers to control,
| advanced as nearly as she could through the
| crowd toward the hastings. and announced
! herself as the wife of the Right Hon. Sir. f.
| b. Lytton, stating that she had come accord
! ing to promise made by her to confront her
| husband, and to expose the wrongs which she
said he had inflicted upon her, and which she
had described in her works and in pamphlet
published ny her.
| The appearance of the lady was not unex-
| pectcd, as her coming had been announced in
| bills and placards; but owing to a deception
| which had been practiced upon her by some
| persons in the town, who had introduced
themselves to her, she was detained in the
| vicinity.-ThOse in the secret anticipated
that she would not discover the mistake until
the proceedings were over, and that her
designs would be thus frustrated. 1t was
nearly so. Recognised as soon as observed,
her voice was nearly drowned by the shouts
of Sir Edwards supporters. but Sir Edwards
eye caught hers, and his face paled He
looked like man suddenly attacked by
paralysis. Those near him say he trembled
exceedingly. For few moments he retained
his position in front of the hustings, but turn
ed his back on the uuweIcome visitor. Then
he suddenly disappeared below the hustings
platform, while his wife cried Coward, - and
he having hastily signed the usual dcclar&-
ton, escaped into the residence of the gentle
man on whose grounds the election took
place. Lady LyttOn continued to address
the audience assembled for more than
quarter of an hour, repeating her statements
in her pamphlet, and asserting her intention
to confront her husband on every possible
occasion until she compelled him to redress
her wrongs. Her ladyship ubsequently made
an application to the Mayor for the use of the
Town Hall. for the purpose of making
public statement but this being refused her,
she left the town early in the afternoon.
Lady Lytton arrived in Hartford at 3 o'clock
on the morning of the election, having posted
from Taunton, where she resides. IL Is need
less to say that the event described has caused
the greatest possible excitement in Hartford
shire.

He has been observed to do this on several
occasions. Among several parties on We'd

took to that as readily as a duck does to
