proposed Now Terrltorles.

The House Committee on Territories
have agreed upon bills for organizing five
new territories, which will include the en-
tire unorganized region between the Mis-
sissippi valley and the Pacific slope. Their
names are TO be Arizona, Nevada, Idaho,
Dacotah and Chippewa. The first includes
all that portion Of territory obtained from
Mexico east of the Colorado and its nor
therly affluent Virgin river) and west of
the 108th meridian. Its southern bounda-
ry will be the Mexican border, and its
northern the parallel of 360 30', separating
it from Utah. Arizona will thus form
block nearly square, including most of New
Mexico west of the Rocky Mountains, and
containing nearly two hundred thousand
miles.
Nevada will comprise all that part of
Utah west of the IL 4th meridian, besides
small triangle between Virgin river and the
California state line, and narrow strip of
what was formerly Oregon territory (now
Washington between the eastern border of
that state and Green river. 1t will thus
contain about $4,000 square miles. and
include the now famous Washoe Mineral
region.
Idaho signifying "Gem of the Noun
tains," is the name proposed for the Pixies
Peak territory. Its eastern boundary will
be the 1O2d meridian; its western Green
river; its southern the 37th, and its north
ern the 49d parallel of latitude. The Rocky
Mountains will form sort of backbone,
passing nearly along its centre. Its extent
will be about 10000 square miles. By
thus clipping the wing of Utah on both the
east and west sides, the latter will be left
with scarcely oue-fourth of its present ex-
tent. A narrow strip of Green river will
be added to Nebraska.
Dacotah will include all the territory
west of Minnesota, lying between the 46th
parallel on the north, and the Missouri river
on the south, with its tributary, the Niobra-
rah, and thence the AID parallel to the l02d
meridian, which will be its western limit
The Missouri river will thus divide it into
two sections, nearly equal in extent The
territory will coutain $4,000 square miles.
The remaining country lying between
Nebraska, Dacotah; the Rocky Mountains
and the British possessions is to be called
Chippewa, making an area of 10000
square miles.

1t is said that the Qnakers are gradually
disappearing from England. Two hundred
years ago their proportion in Great Britain
was about one in every one hundred and
thirty inhabitants. At present they do not
count one in a thousand. There is collec-
tion of old Quaker tracts preserved in the
Bodieian Library, with note written upon
them by an Oxford Professor, stating that
he had collected them and placed them in
the Library, so that persons who should
wish in after time to know what the belief
of Quakers was, could find the statement
of their tenets in their tracts.

EUGENE AS DIANA.-On the 18th Of
April, her Majesty, the Empress of the
French, was to give grand fancy ball at
the hotel of her mother, the Countess de
Montijo, in the Champs Elysees, Paris. In
vitations are already issued, and it is said
that some of the costumes ordered will be
of fabulous beauty and price. The dress
of her Majesty, although simple enough in
material, will of course surpass all others in
magnifcence of precious stones. The EN-
press intends to personate Diana equipped
for the chase. The dress is composed of a
short skirt of tule, embroidered with silver
stars and crescents. The body is made Of
flesh colored silk. She will have suspend
ed behind her golden culver filed with
arrows, the feathers of which will sparkle
with diamonds. A simple gold band en-
circles the head, with large diamond cres-
cent and two small stars in front; pink silk
boots with golden anklets set with diamonds
1t is said that her Majesty to get the dia-
monds in the shape requisite for this dress
has been obliged to have, in conjunction
with her private jewels, several of the larg-
est pieces belonging to the crown diamonds
unset and re-mounted, and that the pauvrt
complete will be estimated as worth more
than ten millions OF francs.

A Sad Incident.

Mr.. Samuel Mckee, a delegate to
Charleston, from Pittsburgh, this morning
received telegraphic dispatch announcing
the sudden death of his daughter, beau,
tiful young woman, who had been married
about year. Just as the dispatch came
in, Aessrs. Campbell, Blood and Dunlap,
who had returned from a short visit to the
country were about presenting Mr.. Mckee
with some handsome boquets. He was
surrounded by number Of friends, laugh
ing heartily at story which one Of them
was relating, at the same time leisurely
opening the dispatch. A glance at it told
the mournful truth, and in an instant he
burst into tears, and was borne helplessly
into TO his state-room. The sudden tran
sition from joy to sorrow has completed,
prostrated him. His friends deeply sym
pathize with him in his bereavement.

Ano,her Renl Llfe Romanee.

The citizens of Columbus, and visitors at
the Capitol, will recollect beautiful young
girl, apparently "sweet SIXTEEN" who daily
carried about tho Legislative Halls and
State offices, handsomely wrought basket
containing the sweetest and plumpest Or
anges. Oh, yes! everybody remembrs Ell
tie, the beautiful orange girl, and have
wondered in what nook she has hidden for
the last two months; for no more her sweet
face and girlish form is seen in the Cap
itol, and interesting clerks with great ad-
miration for the rotund, are obliged to fore
90 glimpses of tho neatest gathered foot
tripping up the marble stairs.
Everybody about the State House adj
mired Elite, but it was with respectful ad-
miration, and if gruff legislator was
tempted to Jest with the girl, or make light
remarks, he was restrained by the modest
demeanor and pure soul-look appealing
from her heaven-blue eyes.
Ettie always brought full basket and
went tripping home with an empty one,
and her scarlet silk purse filled with silver
coin. She was the sole dependence Of a
widowed mother, and her noble efforts to
keep away want were known, and made
the fruit from her basket taste ten times
sweeter.
When the great Union meeting of the
Tennessee, Kentucky and Ohio Legisla-
lures was held in Ohio's Capitol, the beau
tiful orange girl was tripping about, dispos-
ing of her fruit to the ''sons Of the South,
and receiving the homage of admiring
glances from all.
AT the end of the halls, viewing the no,
BILE row of princely residences on Third st.
stood alone a youthful member Of the Ten.
nessee Legislature, when he was startled
by silvery voice, asking:
"Buy an orange, sir"
"How do you sell them :" said the strang
er, looking into her eyes
"Five cents each," said the maiden, hold
ing large one towards him.
"Cheap."
"Indeed they are"
This introduction opened the way for q
prolonged and serious conversation, in which
the girl artlessly revealed to the stranger
the poverty of her home, and the necessity
of her supporting her sick mother. HI
was so struck with the girls manner an(
singular beauty, that he secretly resolved
to visit her home and become more init
matoly acquainted. He did so, and afle
successive visits, won the confidence anC
love of the maiden, and her mothers con
sent to their marriage; and when he wen
back to his Southern home il was with
promise to return in a fortnight for hi
bride. He came, and now the mani
Southerner and the beautiful orange gin
are man and wife. He has taken her, tn
fairest of the fair, to his Southern home, +
dwell with him, and her aged mother, il
opulence, the idol of her husband an'
blessing of the whole neighborhood.

ply of virtuous orange girls Gin. Gazette

WHAT Mr.. ALLEY THINKs.-The New
York Tribune's Washington correspondent
writes under date of the 30th inst. :
Mr.. Alley, of Massachusetts, made a
good speech in the House to-day. Some
portions were pointed. He said the aver
age of his constituents were superior, so
cially and intellectually, to Southern men,
bers of Congress on that floor. He has
made large fortune in business, and he
declared that experience convinced him that
the North lost money by its Southern trade,
He did not therefore consider that, pecuni-
arily or intellectually considered, disunion
would impoverish the North. He paid his
respects to Gen. Gushing, one of his con.
stituents, in manner more severe than
complimentary.

A Boston paper learns by private letter
from Marblehead of singular occurrence
in that place. Some time last week Mr..
Eben Harris, who keeps a number of fowls,
was driving them into the coop in which
they were usually confined during the night,
when one of the cocks became enraged,
and jumping up, struck him with his spur
just below the knee. Mr.. Harris paid lit
tie attention to the wound, and it did not
trouble him until last Monday, when he
started to 60 to Salem. He had proceed
ed about four miles, when he was taken
with very sudden aud severe pain in his
leg, and was taken back to his house and
put to bed. He has suffered great pain,
and has lost his sleep since that time, and
the letter states that on Friday night be
several times crowed like a rooster. The
physicians have given him up.

We find in the New York papers little
fuller report of Mr.. Wade's remarks in the
House on the 30th:
Mr.. Wade, of Ohio, (Rep.) justified his
Endorsement of the Helper book, condemn
ing, however, its harsh expressions. He
never advocated or countenanced the vio-
lent overthrow of slavery. On this subject
he went no step in advance of Jefferson and
other shareholders. 1t was lie-a false
hood of the most infamous character, for
the Northern Democrats to say that the
Republicans want 10 overthrow Southern
institutions. Until the hungry and fe-
rocious party, which for aught we know, arc
cutting one another's throats at Charleston,
are crushed out, there can never be peace.
1t is not for principle they are contending,
but for the spoils.
Mr.. Curtis, of Iowa, (Rep.J remarked
that he understood that the Charleston
Convention had Just made platform with
two faces-the Cincinnati platform aUdthe
Dred Scott decision.
Mr.. Florence of Pennsylvania, (Dem.)
wanted to know whether that information
was for the Republican or the Democratic
side of the House.
Mr.. Curtis replied, for the country gen.
orally.
Mr.. Wade said, that to use Western
phrase, the Democrats have come out of
the same hole they went in at The North
will wool the South, and the South will
wool the North, and both will go in to whip
the Republicans if they can. Who cares
for platforms. Did ever any party stand
by themG 1t is merely scramble for the
| snoils.
