ESCAPE OF FEMALE Convict FROM THE PExITEN-
TIARY.-We heard the other day of very daring
vile, by girl, which pretty nearly equals the
enterprise of the adventurous girl in the Columbus
penitentiary, OF which the papers gave an account
recently. The women's range of cells in the In
diana penitentiary is four stories in hight, we be-
lieve, with grated windows in each story looking
into the courtyard. This girl climbed up the
highest window as far as she could the CRATE bars
enabling her to cling to it firmly, and when at the
top, she managed in some inexplicable way to fas-
window above. then climbed up it to the top, as
she had done with the first one, and again fastened
the sheet to the window above, and thus managed
to get to the roof, whence she escaped down the
ladder which is used for the guards to mount to
the wall with. Her escape was not known til
some time after, and she has probably got saieIy
out.-LouisUWe (ky.l Courier

FINE ARTs-The rooms of the Academy of De
sign were crowded last evening with the friends
and acquaintance of the artists, and other per-
sons, who had been invited private view of
the exhibition for 1860. The collection of pictures
this year, far the throng of visitors permitted
it to be seen, has merit enough not to disappoint
any reasonable expectation. 1t is difficult to be so
certain of the accuracy of ones recollections in
such as to be able, with much confidence, to
compare any given exhibition with the one OF the
year previous. Some CT the visitors last evening
thought the present exhibition better than that Of
the past year, some declaring that they did not
think it so good; perhaps, though it might have
fewer striking works, it was equal in average
merit. There were more figure pieces, and, We
should think, more portraits. Those very bad
portraits which we used to on the walls of the
Academy-often placed as high and as far out of
sight as the hanging committee able to get
them-have disappeared of late. We hear that
the committee rejected more than two hundred
pictures this wear. The view which the visitors
had last night by no means renders a visit to the
rooms by day super huous. The crowd was greatly
in the way and gaslight is not the best light to
look at pictures by. To-day the rooms are open to
the public for the season.-N. Y Evening Post,

The SnoEMAKERs' STRIKE.-We are about hear
ing the last of this great movement as matter of
the present. No formal announcement is made of
a compliance on the part ofthe manufacturers with
the demands Of their employees-nether is there
any intelligence received of a return to work of
the latter at OLD prices. But relinquishment of
the demand that "bosses" should sign the bill of
wages agreed upon, and willingness to resume
labor at prices acceptable-each individual regu-
latng the matter for himsef-have paved the way
| to a profitable and honorable compromise Ha-
verhill came first into line, and the other towns
following rapidly, we have now from Lvnn--the
stronghold of the revolution and the headquarters
best workmen are now employed at good prices,
and others commence work this week Owing
however, to the limited demand for goods large
number of shoemakers will necessarily be out of
work for some time to come. - Boston Post
