AN OLD VoTER,-Among the crafty
ing incident, of the election on Tuesday, is
the fact that nearly all of our oldest citi-
zens voted for Mr.. Lincoln. The venerable
Isaac G. Jones, for a long period one of our
most distinguished merchants, who voted
for Gen. Washington, on Tuesday cast a
ballot for Mr.. Lincoln. having reached the
extraordinary age Of 95 years. This vote
is one of which our worthy President may
well feel proud. -[Philadelphia North

Ntm York, Feb. Give have the follow
ing additional news by the Africa:
In the House Of Commons Mr.. Golden con-
tended that the Queens Speech should have
made some reference to American affairs. He
complained Of silence on this and other i'm.
portant subjects. Palmerston replied that the
Government could have repeated what had
often been said, but could see no occasion for
doing 50.
IN the House of Lords Earl Derby repudi-
ated the idea Of British responsibility for dam
ages by the alabama. He trusted the Min
istry had given such an answer to the claims
of the Federal Government as would put an
end to such monstrous demands.
The Paris correspondence of the London
Times says: At La1 on the Sd February,
the Emperor said to his Grand Marshall,
General, they have begun the exchange Of
cannon and cannon shot at the North; let
them 90 on it is no affair of ours our policy
is on-iitervention." Those whom hs ad.
dressed seemed to agree with him.
In the course OF debate in tho House Of
Lords Earl Derby reviewed at length the for
egn policy Of the Government. contendng
that it was injurious and humi!iating 10 Eng
land. The rejection OF the Emperor Napo-
Icons proposal for an European Congress.
and his invitation to recognize the Govern
ment of the Confederate States, together with
frutless negotiations with Russia regarding
Poland and interfering in Danish difficulties
were severally referred to, and although he
did not oppose the Address, he severely CEN
sured Russes foreign policy.
Lord Manners expressed the hope that the
Government would lose no opportunity in
giving friendly advice to American beligerrnts
with view of drawing the contest to a close.
IT Is AN ESTABLISHED EACT-That from
aime immemorial there has existed GER
tain laws of fashion, which all acknowledge,
aud to which al! pay due reverence. Men
bow reverently to the tickle goddess, and the
ladies' yield gracefully to her supreme sway.
This season. as an agreeable change from the
styles of the last, the ladies have for new
feature, the fashion of embroidrring and braid
ing all outer garments; and assuredly it is a
most beautiful and elegant style Of trimming,
and affords wide scope for the exhibition OF
their good taste and skill. 1t is also the fash
ion for ladies to execute all this elaborate
work by the aid of the .Sewing Machine !; and
the constant use to which every Grover &

certain evidence that they arc not unprrparrd
for the emergency, and have an unf.ling
friend on whom they can rely to sustain them
in tho crises; for to the Grover 4 Baker "

ments of the law rs laid down in Frank
