Nevada is taken from Western Utah and Northern California, but the strip of California will not be included within its limits unless that State consents to t lie transfer. This Territory in cludes the celebrated Washoe mines, the richest in the world, and is besides rich in agricultural re sources. Dacotah was formerly a part of JMin neota Territory, but was detached when that became a State. It lies west of Minnesota, em bracing a belt of country 450 miles in length by 200 in width. Its resources are chiefly agricultu ral. It abounds in lakes and rivers, and in the south has a mild climate, while in the norih the climate is severe. The number of Territories is now seven, viz : Washington, Nebraska, Utah, New Mexico, Colo rado, Nevada, and Dacotah. In all proabability they will, with the exception, perhaps, of Utah, be admitted into the Union in lhe course of a lew years as sovereign States. Slavery exists in only one of them, New Mexico. Reclaiming Fallen Women. The move ment in London for the reformation of fallen wo men has been attended with remarkable results. Similar measures have been adopted in other large cities of Great Britain with success. In Glasgow, over two hundred have been received into the Refuge and provided with employment, mainly through the fi'orts of a single lady, who devoted heiselt to this work ; and many more have appli ed, but have been rejected, from the want of means for their support. Of 1G3 who had been received in over a twelvemonth, only twenty had relapsed, and nearly all of these had returned of their own accord, bitterly repenting their weak ness, and desiring further opportunity of reforma tion. As the most insidious means were adopted to lure them back to vice, the secessions were en couragingly limited. In Dublin too, a similar movement has been inaugurated, and a very con siderable number have embraced the opportunity of abandoning their evil courses. A Melancholy Case of Dissipation. The Rosfon Journal mentions the following sad in stance of mental and social ruin resulting from unrestrained dissipation : "Among the tenants of the lock-up on Monday night was a man a wreck of what he was before he became a prey to his per verted appetite who, until within a few years, stood in the foremost rank of the medical profes sion, enjoying a lucrative practice in one of our suburban towns, surrounded by ail the comforts which wealth and social position could give; yet having yielded to a passion for drink, has in the space of eight years squandered a fortune of about one bundled and fifty thousand dollars, and de scended to the lowest degree of degradation." Admission of Northern States into tiie Southern Confederation. As the new Con stitution has been framed, there is nothing to pre vent the admission of Northern States into the new Confederation. A vote of two-thirds is all that is requisite; and, after the accession of Virginia, Maryland, North Carolina, Tennessee, Kentucky, Missouri and Arkansas, there is likely to be no great difi5culty in obtaining this vote. In thus constructing the fundamental law, of course, a struggle has occurred iu the secret sessions of the Montgomery Congress, in which those refusing to close the door against the reception of anti-slavery States have achieved a victory. Th'is the policy of ultimately admitting the anti-slave Statesof the Northwest first, and afterwards Pennsylvania, New Yotk, et cetera, is obviously the programme or prevailing idea of the Montgomery Congress. The Union is not to be reconstructed on terms of the old Constitution. It is to be reorganized - on the new basis, and we are in danger, if the views of the Constitution-makers are carried into practice, of being dragged back eventually into political af filiation with the States and peoples from whom we havejubt cut loose.

This case has created an excitement, both in i London and Dublin, to which there is no parallel? i we oeeve, m me ntstory or emi ua , euner in ! l i; ; . . ! l eireai jjriiaiii or mis country. iv nuuwj uie ; Sickles case completely in the shade, and the Fur rest divorce suit is scarcely worthy of being named on the same day. It. reveals an amount of base ness on the part of an officer high in rank in the ; British army, and son of an Earl, which, seems almost incredible, and would be entirely so did we not know that villainy is peculiar to no f lass in society, and that a depraved heart i as frequently covered by the laced suit of the noblemar as by the tattered garments of the beggar.. The facts of the case are briefly these: Teresa Longworth, of an ancient and honorable family iu England, having lost her mother in early child hood, was taken to France to be educated, and was reared in the Roman Catholic faith, although her parents had been Protestants. She had, living in France, a sister who was the wife of the Chirf Justice of the French Empire, and she was com ing over from a visit to her in 1852, when, for the first time, she met the Hon. Charles Yelverton, son and heir apparent of Lord Avonmore, and Major of Artillery in the British army, at Boulogne. When she arrived in London, her sister, Mrs. Bellamy, not having sent for her as she expected, (she lived in Wales.) Major Yelverton called a cab for her. In a few days, Major Yelvctton called on her at her sister's, and the usual interchange of civilities passed between them. In 1853, she went to iNaples, to complete her studies, and while there, having occasion to send a letter to a relation in Albania, she applied to her banker to kuow how she was to contrive it. He volunteered to send it through an officer in Malta, who, he said, was a friend of his, and who turned out to be Major Yelverton. This circumstance led to a cor respondence, spread over several years, which has been published, and which is calculated to impress the reader with a high opinion of the lady's talents. At the time of the Crimean war, Miss Longworth went to the scene of action, with the French Sistcrsf Mercy. Major Yelvcton had been serving in the Crimea, and had been ordered to England, whence he did not return until Sep tember, 1855. In the meantime, Miss Longworth had been serving in the hospital of Galata with the Sisters of Mercy, and there Major Yelverton found her when he returned. He had never seen her since he visited her at her sister's house iu 1852. He immediately began to pay her the greatest attention, professing the most unbounded attach ment, and expressing an earnest desire to marry her. She asseuted. and agreed to leave the occu pation in which she was engaged, iu order to be come his wife. Rut she would by no means con- sent to nis proposition or a secret marriage oy a Greek priest, and declared that she would be mar ried by uobody but a Roman Catholic priest. About this time, an armistice having taken place in the Crimea, Miss Longworth was invited by the wife of Gen. Yon Straubenste, a Major General in the British army, to her home. This invitation was of its- If a proof that the character of Miss L. was untainted, for Mrs Von Straubensee held the highest social position. In this family she lived five or fix weeks, during which time, with the sanction of the General and his wife, who supposed that his attentions to their ward were honorable, Major Ytlvei ton constantly visited her. constantly proposed marriage, and was a3 con stantly repelled by the lady, because she objected to secresy, and insisted on a Catholic priest. In 1856, Miss Longworth returned to England, re mained in Wales with her sister until February, 1857, and went from there to Edinburgh, where she moved in the first society. There Major Yel verton, who was stationed at Lejth, again met her, and aj.ain proposed a secret marriage. The reasons he gave for not making the marriage pub lic, were the same he had given in the Crimea, and amounted to nothing more than that he was poor and in debt, and that an uncle on whom he depended would cut him off if he knew it. On one occasion, in Edinburgh, he took a prayer-book and read over the service with her before two wit nesses, after which be declared that by the Scot tish law they were man and wife. She rejected the idea with horror, and repulsed him in every advance he made. She then left Edinburgh for Wales, and took refuge in her sister's house, much alarmed at his declaration that the ceremony of reading the prayer-book before witnesses h;id made her his wife. There she received a letter from him, entreating he r to come back saying that the marriage should be performed by a Catholic priest, in Ireland, provided it should be kept secret. She yielded so far, left her sister's house, met him in Belfast, and was married to him in the parish church of Kilowcn, by the Rev. Mr Mooney. The piiest itt first objected, because of the old law a disgrace to the statute book, obsolete long ago, and so often violated thai nobody ever thought it woith while to get it rere.iled. It made it penal for any person in orders to marry a Catholic to a Protes ts!: t, and declared such marriage void. On this occasion, however, .Yelverton declared himself a Catholic the Rishop of Dromore gave his con sent the priest, in his sacred robes, and before the altar, went thrdugh the ceremony according to the Roman Catholic ritual, pronounced the bene diction, put on the ring, and declared the couple man and wife In a word, married them, if it is possible for man and woman to be married. The marriage was solemnized 15th August, 1857. The parties afterwards went first to Scotland, and then to France, he always registering their iimes, and procuring their passports, as Mr and Mrs Yelverton. In France tdie was delivered of a etill-born child, he having, according to his own statement, administered drug, of which she knew not the deleterious properties, to procure an abor tion. In France he left her to return to his regi ment. She followed hiin as soon as her health would permit, and when ehe arrived in Scotland, went fo him at once in Leith. lie told ber that he was a ruined man, and that she alone could save him. She professed a readiness to make any sacrifice for that purpose, and asked him what she was to do He said the must go to New Zealand, i and he would join her there. She asked how that I i j i f . v i i. . . i : couiu Dcneut mm. out ae gave oeroo answer, ana a few days after she learned that he had married a widow with o0,000. The action in this -case was brought by a Mr Thelwall, who sued Major Yelverton for main te- This $anwIsadQ&d lii order to obtain the evidence of. J I . validity of the marriajre fore Chief Justice MonaWtn, Dublin. The two leadtfoftho piifred WhitCsideS for vEfldSj for the defendant. The UsflmoTTy of Mr Yelver ton is clear, explieit, sirrrple, and perfectly satis factory. In the beginning of the cross examina tion, Brewster addressed her as Miss Longworth. She replied with infinite dignity, . my name U Yelverton." The effect was electric. The vast crowd testified their applause by , uhouts which it was in possible to suppress. . Mr Whiteside re minded the counsel that Mrs Yelverton was a lady. The Chief Justice gave hiiu to understand he was under the protection of the Court. Brewster was under hack from that moment. He complained of the outburst of feeling among tho crowd, but the Chief Justice said 'it is hard to restrain feeling, Mr Brewster, in such a case as this " Whitesides took the mside track, and kept it from that time. Yelverton himself came on to be examined. In all our lives we never road or heard of uch a cross examination its he sustained at the hands of White sides. Not Curian. when he was putting Reynolds, or Sir or James O'Brien to the torture ever came up to Whitesides on this occasion. And it was a great occa.-i.-n for a great advocate, and ought to place Whitesides in the first rank, if he was not there already. It must be admitted, however, that he had a fine subject to operate on. Of all tho abandoned, reckless, profligate, unalloyed scound rels we ever read of this man Yelverton endeavors to prove nimself the most reckless, profligate, abandoned, and unalloyed The verdict of the jury established " the mar riage. There was a roar of appUuxe from thecrowd within, which was taken up by fifty thousand voi ces without, and went through the vast city, until it swelled to a volume that seemed sufficient to turn the stream of the Liffey back to its source. The Court had been full of ladies from the first They testified their applause by shaking handker chiefs, clapping hands, screaming, stamping, and by ending in blubbering, as women always do. 'ihe Chief Justice had to hold the Court over, to keep the crowd froRi getting hold of Yelverton. They insisted on making him better acquainted with the waters of the Liffey. He was with great difficulty gotten off In safety. Forty or fifty thou- sand persons assembled around the hotel where Mrs Yelverton was staying, and called, for her. She came forward .en" th balcony, and made them a short speech. A thundering shout testified their applause and admiration. It is said the case will be carried to the Queen's Bench. In the meantime, Yelverton is to be tried by a court-martial, for conduct unbecoming an of ficer and gentlmaii, for frequenting the house of a hiothcr officer, for the avowed purpose of destroy ing a young lady living in his family, and under the protection of his wife. Yelverton, in his tes timony, says he visited the house of General Straubensee, for that purpose. It is to be hoped he will be cashiered. Covser native Re-action in the North.- The New York Tribune (abolition) gives the following particulars of the couservativo re-action in the North: ' ' "Rut our town elections havo just been held in 38 of our CO counties, and the. aggregate result is, 529 Republican supervisors to 215 of all sorts a lager portion of Republicans than were ever before chosen. Yet, in the face of this unmistakable demonstration, and of the kindred response of New Hampshire, which has "just elected a Repub lican Governor, Legislature, and full delegation to Congress, by a round 4,000 majority more than the average Republican majority at all her State elections sinco the Republican party was or ganized there Mr John Cochrane, the cast-off servant of a cast-off and utterly used up party, assumes to reassure Virginia, in the name arid be half of the State of New York! Coull irr.posturo be more impudent?" Bogus Jewklry. Speaking of the stores established in many cities of the United State) wheie purchasers of jewelry can have ther ''choice for one dollar," the Chicago Journal says : . - . The principal composition used in the manufac ture of the jewelry is termed Orcide, and is simply an excellent quality of brass. ' It is the most posi tive imitation of gold that has ever been dis covered ; it wears like it, not discoloring anything it touches, as common brass or copper will; it rnij be engraved or chased, being the same all the way through; it is much vofter ami more readily fused than gold,. however; and its value may bo imagined when wc say that u dozen finely cha.ed spoons of, this metal can be bought for 31. 51), with a profit to the retailor, even at that price, of over thirty three per cent. ' . - Of this metal, the New York Scientific Ameri can, most excellent authority, says : Orcide of gold, of which so many cheap articles of jewelry are now made, is pimply a very beautiful brasjr, without a Eingle grain of goli'in its com position. ' The costliest part of the oreide operation is the molds and forms in which the jewelry is shaped and cut. Were they obliged to have these moulds made expressly at each change of fashiou, it would materially reduce the profits; but they avoid this difficulty by purchasing the moulds in which jewelers have made the real gold jewelry, and thus also obtain the latest patterns. Probably the most expensive-Iookin piece of this jewelry does not cost for the tnetal-mouldtng, putting together and making-op, forty cents. Advertising.

And I have made it an invariable rule, too, to advertise in the Holiest times, long cxperince having taught tue .h-t monev thus SDcnt is well laid out: as bv keep- i wv business before the public, it has seeured . . . . i . . . .... me many sales that I should otherwise have lost.'
