The late Elections.

Elections were held on Tuesday lst in
New York, New Jersey, Massachusetts,
Wisconsin. Michigan ,fand Illinois.
In New York the Republicans have
elected THAR State ticket, and q large
majority Of both branches of the Legis.
lalure.
"a In New Jersey the Republicans have
elected their Governor, and State ticket
o by about 1000 majority.
s Massachusetts,, as usual, has made
nearly clean thing Of it. having elected
a Republican Governor and State ticket
by over $4,000 majority, and nearly all
the members Of the Legislature.
d Wisconsin also elected Republican
Governor and Republican Legislature.
In Michigan the election was only for
q County officers, but the Republicans car
ried everything before them, as far as
we have heard.
.i.s The election in Illinois was also only
for county officers.
s Judging from the appearance Of things
now, we are inclined 10 think that the
Republicans will carryfabout all the free
States in 1860; for, disguise it as you will.
we cannot shut our eyes 10 the fact that
: the question Of Slavery will absorb every
thing else in the coming Presidential
campaign. Many Of the Southern jour
mails insist upon making that tie issue,
and alre ady declare their unwillingness
to support any man who will not take his
position upon a platform entirely setisfac
tory to the South upon that question:
Should the Republicans nominate some
such man a, CAMERON, Of Pennsylvania,
Or BATES, Of Missouri, they will carry
every free State in the union.

No Money Risked

Premium he will receive before sending his
money. Any Lady or Gentleman desiring
one Of the above articles, can first send us
their name and address, stating whether they
want the Pencil and Pen, or Locket. and we
will make their selection, and inform them by
return mail what Premium they are entitled
TO-. They can have the privilege of sending
for it if they choose. ii :
Our rPremiums are distributed in n fair and
Honorable manner, and as soon as the name
Of the purchaser is received with the S., his
Pencila and Pen and Premium, OF Gold Locket
and Premium, are put up in a safe manner,
and sent to the owner by mail, free of POST
age. Our plan, from long experience in the
above business, has given general satisfaction,
as each purchaser can sell or t.ade the above
articles for all they cost him, and retain the
Pr, MUM gratis.
ys II however, any person should feel dispos-
ed to send us their money in advance, they
can rely upon being as fairly dealt with as
though they had made previous application.
And if any one is dissatisfied with their
purchase, and an unbiased person competent
to judge says The articles are not worth more
than tue. money paid for them, and in Some
cases Fen, or even FORTY times the amount,
let such person return the goods, and we will
freely reIunu tne money. ...4sI
But some will ask Gas many have) how can
we afford to give so much for so little money?
In answer, we say, that all who are acquaint-
cd with the Jewclry business know that there
is scarcely an article of Jewclry purchased at
retail store upon which there is not profit
of from 100 to 400 per cent, on manufacturers
prices.
We being Agents for the Manufacturers, have
Adopted this plan Of disposing Of our goods
rather than selling to Country Dealers on time
and taking the uncertainty of collecting oul
bills.
BY this arrangement, we bring the purchas
er in direct communication with the Mauufac
turer, and the profits that are made by the doz
en- hands through which ,ewcry has to pass
we give to the purchaser in premiums, as u.
boye stated.
We therefore offer the following inducement
to persons acting as Agents for.us:--Any per
son sending us $25 for our goods, will receive
a Pencil and Pen, and Premium, or locket and

gives an account of some interesting exper-
iments made in the well. It says:
On Saturday, Professor I. G. Wormly
made several experiments; the pressure per
square inch, at the bottom, is 861 pounds,
or $4,000 per square yard
First Experiment.-Three bottles, two of
them Theoretically sealed, were placed in the
pump and sunk to the bottom of the bore.
When withdrawn they were crushed to
powder. The other, which was closed with
a stsong cork, had it forced in and the bot.
tie pulverized.
end Experiment.-Two very strong cut
glass bottles were used, one of them was
crushed, the other, a very small and thick
one, was forced half full of water-but not
broken, and the cork remaining firmly fixed
in the neck. The water forced into the bot
tie at the great depth of 2,095 feet, or over
& of mile, was as pure and limpid as the
purest spring.
Curious stones are brought, in limited
quantities, from the the bottom, which,
when polished, show minute stars, new
moons, half moons, full moons, and suns,
most regularly and clearly defined.

The Old Canoe.
By MISS EMILY z. PAGE.


Uba-. the rocks are gray, and the shore Is steep,
And the waters below look dark and deep;
Where the rugged pine IN Its lonely price,
Leans gloomify over the murky tide;
And the weeds grow thick on the winding bank;
Where the shadow is heavy the whole day through,
Lies at its moorings the old canoe.
The useless paddles are idly dropped,
Like sea-bfrd's wings that the storm has Topped,
And crossed on the railing, one DER one,
Like folded hands when the work is done,
While busily back and forth between
The spider stretches his silvery screen,
And the solemn owl, with his dull "too hoo"
Settles down on the side of the old canoe.
The stern, half sunk in the shiny wave,
Rots slowly away in its living grave,
And the green moss creeps Ger its dull decay,
Hiding the Wondering dust away,
Like the hand that plants DER the tomb flower,
Or the ivy that mantles the fallen tower;
While many blossom of loveliest hue
Springs up DER the stern of the old canoe.
The currentless waters are dead and still
But the light winds play with the boat at viii,
And laZily in and ont again,
1t floats the length of its rusty chain,
Like the weary march of the hands of time,
That meet and part at the noontide chime;
And the shore is kissed at each turn anew,
By the dripping bow of the old canoe.
o, many time, with careless hand,
have pushed it away from the pebbly strand,
And padded it down where the stream runs quick,
Where the whirls are wide and the eddles are
thick
And laughed as leaned DER the rocking side,
And looked below in the broken tide,
To see that the faces and boats were two,
That were mirrored back from the old canoe
But now, as lean Ger the crumbling side,
And look below in the sluggish tide,
And the laugh that hear has o soberer tone,
And the hands that lent to the light skif wings,
Have grown familiar with sterner things.
But l love to think of the hours that flew,
As rocked where the whirls their white spray
threw
Ere the blossoms waved, or the green moss grew
Der the Wondering stern of the old canoe.
