THE DAILY EMPIRE
what Women Can Accomplish.
EH II, ROBINSON,
ePUBLIsHER AND PROPRIETOR.

Il The Philadelphia North american says:
! q Among the strangers In Philadelphia. at
this mQmeut are two ladies from Martins
burgs Nest Virginia. y esterday they were
ppTchasing n seed drill a moving machine
aml other agricultural implements, whose
cost in the aggregate was about $500. Their
hoine was very close 10 the theater of the
late wan. Between the two contending
armies their houses and their barns were
pnrned their horses and cattle driven of.
their only brother cOnscripfed into the rebel
army and themselves left utterly destitute
and IhomelesE.l Amy one who, seeing
young lady Hucll as we saw yesterday, had
been told that she had personally plowed
aud planted many. acres of land, would
have laughed tn scorR the party so inform
ing him, Such. however. Is literally the
case. We learn the facts from n gentleman
residing in the vicinity. The smoking
ruins OF the firm Upon which these young
people resided had Scarcely cooled when
the neighbors clubbed together, built them
= log house., and eKtempoTized a sort of
bafh. Horses were loaned, to them, and
the girls with their own hands plowed the
ground. andiseeded IL with corn. The croD
grew .apace, and with their own hands they
harvested IT.. They sold il TO good advan-
tage. They had owned forty y-seven negro
slaves Some OF these vent Into the Union
army, others deserted the locality. The
girls, were loft alone tobattle with the vicis-
situdes of the war. ,..,,..t
Our Informant, whose respectability Is
beyoDda question, says that these girls pro-
duced by their work in the field more de-
eided and productive, results than were ac-
eomplished by the entire gang of slaves.
They toiled for three years, and now have
a comfortable house and most substantial
barns upon their property, while improve
ments have been made upon it to an extent
that makes 1t of considerable more value
than before the torch Of conflicting armies
reduced it's buildings TO ashes One of the
young ladies has since married, but the
others still do duty as their own "ovcr-
seers. "and they themselves purchased yes
terday and directed the shipment of the ag-
riculturai implements to which we have
above referredG The wonder to the dealer
was that lady, delcately, gloved, and at
tired as though she had never overstepped
the bounds Of che boudoir, should descant
experimehtally and intelligently upon the
respective merits of the different reaping
machines, and upon the comparative values
Of the different patents for threshing out
the, cereals. tIs.. .tf g4tln lEHf

Arrival of Military Prisoners.

On the llth inst. twenty-six military
prisoners left Little Rock, Arkansas, where
they had been tried and sentenced by
eourts-marJial. for imprisonment in the
Ohio Penitentiary. They were sentenced
for various terms and for various offenses.
alleged to have been committed while ia
the military service Of the United States.
They arrived ut the depot ia this city yes
terday afternoon, guarded by \ detachment
OF negro soldiers belonging to the 54th
Regiment of United States Colored Infant
iry, under command of Capt. David Clam
mer, the officer in charge. .asp
The prisoners appeared, whatever their
original oifenses may have been, as though
they had been pretty severely punished
already. They were wah and detected;
their Clothing was soiled and worn, aud
their general demeanor, that of men to
whom life had but few charms. The TWEEN
ty-siX prisoners were rs to race nearly In
the proportion of One-half white men and
one-half negroes. They were brought
hither in pairs. pllioned or fastened together
with iron bands. Generally white pris-
oner was coupled with a biack one. Per-
haps, though we have no information on
That head, they were equal in the crimes of
Which the military courts had found them
guilty. At any rate, the white military
officers that had these prisoners in charge,
seem to have thought proper thus to hu-
initiate aud degrade the whites. in order.
probably, 10 soothe and elevate the negroes
whom they have regarded as more entitled
to sympathy and consolation. This would
seem to be making a marked 'distinction
on account of COLOR .
The prisoners were marched from the
depot 20 the Penitentiary underth escort
of their darkey guards, and delivered over
to the authorities at the prison.--jStdtesn,da

LITERATURE.

TEN YEARS OF A LIFETIME By Mrs. MARGARET
Hismer NJ. Doolady, New York. Phnadel.
phia Agents:
Mrs. Hismer is not a novice in the line Of
authorship. Her "Morrisons" was very favor
ably received, and the "Ten Years OF a Lifetime"
appears to be similar in style to its predecessor.
In binding it is extremely neat, but the paper
and Typography might be improved. The tale
itself is pleasantly told little social sketch, not
at all sensational, yet decidedly entertaining
1t treats of characters which we have met, and
will daily meet in real lite; that of Kitty being
particularly well portrayed. IT is not such a
work as will bring the author any permanent
reputation, yet as a hghi contribution to sum-
mer reading il Will prove most acceptable. We
congratulate our readers upon the supply of new
works issued during the past few weeks which
are fitted for the country. "The Red Doctor"
published by Lippincott, is excellent. listers
Folly" issued by Peterson, is already in its third
edition. Gail HamiltonS Summer Rest is in
great demand, and "FeliX Holt" which Har-
pers have just published, and of which we will
speak on Saturday, appears to be production
which will attract as much attention here as it
has or the other side OF the water
