Xelrasia Election. -N. B.Giddings, an antiNebraska democrat,' has been .elected to Congress from the territory of 2ebfaska, by a decided majority. The alaveites seem to have centered their efforts in Kansas ,Vnd to some extent permitted the election in Nebraska; go by default. Mr. Giddings was a Missourianaud was a candidate for superintendent of Public ' Instruction in that State, at the last election on the Benton anti-Nebraska ticket, and defeated. ' Twenty-six members of the legislative Coun cil have been elected, but.we have no indications as to their political complexion.

American silks could ; probably have a hearing to-day before his honor,

not be found, but calieoes, movslinda laines were : all the rage." We purchase twenty millions of dollars worth of foreign silks every year. This vast amount . distributed among tne laborers ot uus oountry would afford support to thousands who are now destitute of the means of support. In speaking of this subject the Boston Transcript says: "Will there be any permanent ease in the money market so long as this system of excessive importations is continued? We think not. The matter is attracting much attention in Ne. w York at the present time, and measures are ia progress to form aa American League to discountenance excessive importation, and patronize borne products. Within a week we learn that sixty ladies in the city of N. York have signed an obligation, by which they agree not to purchase any article of foreign manufacture for wear for a year to come. In the present state of our finances, is not this subject worthy they consideration of the ladies of Bostoa?" We beg the ladies of Indiana to pursue a similar course; and say to "Sam" and his numerous family throughout the whole country, "go thou and do likewise." A new patriotic society we learn from the Bee, has been formed in the town of Monmouth, in the State of Maine, which is named The Daughters of Freedom." The object is to carry out the same principles that was supported by the mothers of 1776, t. e. to use and wear everything needed of the product of the United States. . It is horded that the ladies ef every other town in the Union will follow this noble exam- ' pie. Let this be commenced forthwith, and money will soon be plenty in every persons pocket.

opinion, ttial it is tne most aoerai enterpnze that has ever been started in this country for the promotion of Literature and Art. We re gard it as far ahead of the defunct American Art Union, which was to liberally patronized. It gives to each subscriber the full worth of his money at once, in the presentation of any one of our standard three dollar magazines for the current year, and at the same time gives him a share in ths distribution of prizes without additional charge, and when it is remembered that the cstslogue contains the celebrated Greek Slave of Powers, of itself worth $5,000, and several hundred large oil paintings, with statues and statuettes, this additional return will show the liberal scale of this enterprize. We heartily commend it to the loveis of Art and Literature, and would urge them to call on Mr. Thompson, at the office of the Bellefontaine Railroad Company, and secure a share before J the day of distribution.

The Texas papers say that the Maine Law is to be made an issue in the next election of members of the Legislature iu that State , and they coa fi Jently predict its success. The Supreme Court of Rhode Island has decided 1 the clause in the liquor Law of that State, which : authorizes the seizure and destruction of liquor, ' to be unconstitutional. The Government of Honduras has agreed to sell Liegeo Island to the Unite! States for 820,000. The ownership of the Island is disputed by the Government of Salva- ; dor. We see by New York papers that Thos. W. Dorr, who made such a stir in Rhode Island affairs some years ago, died at Providence on Wednesday. He is said to have been in poor health ever since his imprisonment for treason. Prince Albert has sent a present of a seal skin coat to every officer of his regiment in the Crimea.

The speech of the Quten of England on the assembling of Parliament, was wholly occupied with the war subjects, with the exception of one paragraph, in which she says she has concluded a treaty with the United States, by which subjects of long difficulty and protracted discussion have been adjusted. She speaks of the army in the Crimea with admiration and gratitude, and praises the co-operation of the French. She sys she has concluded a treaty with Austria. She calls for instant reinforcements for the army in Crimea. The debate on the speech was interesting, but it had no effect on the fuuds. Private letters say the ratification of the treaty with Austria, were exchanged with Vienna, on the 1 4th ult., and it is stated that if the negotiations now landing do not produce peace, Aus'ria will call out sixteen men in each thousand, which will bring over one million of men into the field, and which will be done as early as possible.
