The Dressmakers of London.

The London T3hSes says that the young
milliners and dressmakers of that city, are
condemned to sixteen, seventeen or eighteen
hours of toll out of the twenty four in each
day and night. Their work is carried on in
crowded, unventilated rooms. where their
frames are kept bent at their labor until their
eyes ache, and their limbs refuse to perform
their duty. They have short painful life
and an early grave. In recent speech.
Lord Shaftesbury said that many of these
young women had been trained gently and
tonderly, in delicate and happy homes, pos
sessing all the virtues and tenderness that
belong to the female sex, and rendered by
those very characteristics more obedient, more
unmurmuring, more slavishly subject to the
authority and tyranny of those who are put
over them. His lordship adds that they have
no alternative between submission and the
street door, and then asks, sis the condition
of such young woman one whit better than
the condition of the most wretched slave in
the Southern States Of America?"

New Mexico and Santa Anna.

DELEGATE ELECTIONS.

1t will be perceived by the CALI of the
Chairman of the Democratic County Commit
tee in another column, that the Delegate
Elections will be held on Saturday, the tenth
day of next month. This is an important
matter and should at once command the at
tention of the Democracy in every section of
the county. The welfare of the party de-
mands that tbs next County Convention sho'd
be composed of Democrats who have the well
fare of the party at heart. instead of brawl-
ing politicians aud office cking demagogues
The Democracy Of every election district
should see that honest reliable Democrats are
selected as delegates. who will faithfully
fearlessly aud Independently discharge their
duty. If the Convention is composed ofhon-

apprehensions as to the result. A ticket will
be nominated which will receive the unan-

A Wonderful Escape.

The Auburn Advertiser says that the escape
of James A. Cox of that city. at the late
railroad disaster, was wonderful:
Mr.. Cox was seated in the third seat
from the front in the second passenger car
the car that made the first fatal plunge The
first passenger car cleared the bridge, leaving
behind the trucks, wheels and floor All the
passengers escaped serious injury. The Sec
ond car. following, fell, striking against the
abutment of the bridge, and was shivered to
atoms. Mr.. Cox first heard the scraping of
the two trains in the collision, felt the tipping
of the car. the dreadful rush, plunge, ard
the awful crash. The next instant. he was
standing on splinters so fine that twenty or
thirty could be held in one hand, the rain
beating upon him and the most profound
stiffness reignjng
''This awful silence lasted moment only,
when the terrible shrieks of the wounded and
the fainter groans of the dying, came up from
the shattered mass. Mr.. Cox, by a slight
effort extricated~ himself from the ruins. and
found himself entirely unframed, except a
slight and unimportant scratch on his foot
He felt the splinters flying past his head;
below his feet to his knees were ruins heaped
up; on the left were the crushed remains OF
the Mack children; in front was the fatally
wounded Perkins, of Rochester, and almost
beneath his feet were the remains of Moore,
of Rising Sun, and the body of lady trans
fixed by two stakes"

The New Gold Mines.

All was excitement in California at the last
dates, in relation to the new gold mines -
Hundreds of the active and the enterprising
were directing their footsteps to British Ore
gon. The San Francisco Herald alluding to
the subject, says:-''The steamer Commodore
sailed yesterday for the North, with crowd
of passengers bound for the new gold mines
The impression among the emigrants seemed
to be that the Shuswap mines presented the
greatest inducements, and that the Columbia
river route through the Dalles and the Oke-
anagaD river, was the most preferable. A
large portion of the passengers were French
men, who were the more induced fIom the
report that persons of that nation, or those
who spoke French, were treated with more
kindness and courtesy than others by the
English and BY the Indians, many of whom
understand that language There was also a
sprinkle of colored people, melted, doubtless,
by the glowing accounts received of the favor
with which their predecessors had been treat
ed by the English Governor of Vancouver
Last of all, there was quite number of eour-
tesans. most of whom had been here since
1S49 and 1850. California has no reason to
regret their departure. The prices for pas
sage were fifty dollars in the cabin, and TWEEN
ty-fye in the steerage. Our american pop
ulation seem to be waiting for further more
definite, and moro reliable information than
any we have yet had from the Frazer and
Thompson River gold mines
The actual productiveness of these mines,
is not as yet settled point. Many of the
stories are e1travagant, and are not to be de-
pended upon. But, observes the San Fran
cisco Uerdld:-
''All of this fresh emigration will, howev-
er, have good tendency 1t will settle the
vast Northwestern region and introduce life
and civilization to not only our whole Pacific
coast, but to the British possessions. During
the past year, there has been great advance
in Oregon, about Pupets Sound; and now
that the Indian troubles are settled, there will
be much decided enterprise manifested during
the present year. Whether it be gold or
any other impulse-and in fact whether the
gold be there or not-civilization should be
deeply indebted to any movement which may
tend to develop the resources of our North
Western States. They are destined to give
birth to bold, hardy race, strengthened by
the best influences of climate aad of sofia
race in which free labor and all the best in
huences of industry will be marvellously de-
veloped."

II. CANAAN, Esa.-Dear Sir-Yours of

mittee OF the Board of Trade of Philadelphia
is to meet the Pittsburg Board of Trade on

that their object Is to induce the people of
Pittsburgh to withdraw their opposition to
the repeal Of the Tonnage Tax. You ought
at once to call meeting of your citizens and
get them to send on Committee of which
Committee you ought to be enc. The COM
pass of letter, which mustnecessarily be
brief and hurried, (to be in time for the mail)
will not permit me to give all, or indeed any
of the reasons why Cambria, and, if possible,
ssme other counties, should have their rep
resentatives here on Thursday evening
For the present it must suffice fer me to
say that for l am on this question where

repeal of the Tonnage Tax, and in favor of

examinations for short distances, as the peo-
pie. by Act of their Legislature may special
ly authorize, and as from time TO time expe-
rience may show to be reasonable aud neces-
sary. Nay, now go further in Opposition
to the policy Of the Railroad Company, and
am prepared to advocate the repeal of the
Law which released the Company from the
payment of the two mills, which by contract
they were bound to pay in addition to the
present tax of three miles

From the Johnstown Echo.
Letter from Senator Gazzam.

Having learned some days ago that Com
m,ttce from tue Board of Trade of Philadel-
pha would visit Pittsburg, for the purpose of
inducing the citizens of the latter city to
withdraw their opposition to the repeal of the
Tonnage Tax. wrote to Senator Gazzam to
know the facts of the case BY return mail
the following answer was sent, but absence
from town prevented me from complying with
his request The letter is characteristic of
the man-open, fearless and unreserved.-
The passage of law such as he is prepared
to advocate, is greatly needed, and the inter
ests of the people imperatively demand that
the next Legislature sho;tld act, and act
promptly, in the matter. With majority
of such men as Dir. Gazzam in the Legisla-
ture, the interests of the people viii be pro-
teeted, and Railroad officials will soon learn
that their power is not omnipotent.
From the Pittsburg dailics | see that the
meeting referred to proved a total failure, and
that the business men of Pitt,burg remain
ftm in their opposition to the repeal of tax
that was wisely imposed. and that is source
of increasing revenue to the Treasury of the
