Female Pluck. --Dr. Blanchard was lately arrested in Southern Illinois. A letter related the following about his wife, who is a Kentuckian: "When Blanchard went through Carbondale, on his way to Springfield, he was visited on the cars by his wife, a sister of John Logan, who was perfectly reckless. She cheered for Jeff. Davis, and abused the Union men in every conceivable manner; but in consideration of her sex she was not disturbed, but allowed to have her blow out all to herself.--When she entered her buggy to drive away she struck her horse into a run, and at every jump she would hit him again and shout at the top of her voice, 'Hurrah for Jeff.

In Galt and Barbee, Virginia has given to the world of art two of its brightest ornaments. The New York Herald speaks of the admirable works of another gentleman, formerly an artist in our city and a rising star in his profession, now a clergyman of the Episcopal Church in Springfield, Illinois. We refer to Rev. L. P. Clever, who is remembered with feelings of esteem and admiration by all his old friends in Virginia. A brilliant artist and a noble gentleman, he has devoted himself to the sacred calling in the far-off West with an energy and zeal equal to that which gained him such distinction at the easel. The Herald informs us that the famous portrait of McDonald Clarks, the "mad poet" of New York, which has been commonly attributed to Mr. Thomas Hicks, was, in reality,

The Republican Programme, manifest of Lincoln's Lieutenant — his administration Sees no power to secede. The Republican "jubilee," at Springfield, Ill., on the night of the 19th inst., has been noticed. The speech of Mr. Lincoln, in reply to a serenade, contains nothing more than was published, but the speech of Senator Trumbull was promised before the jubilee to be the reflex of Mr. Lincoln's views, and is, therefore, of more or less interest at the South. The following is an extract: Upon national topics Senator Trumbull discountenanced the idea of triumphing over political opponents, accepting all, by whatever name called, as brethren of a common country. He said Mr. Lincoln, although the candidate of the Republican party, as Chief Magistrate will neither belong to that or any other party when inaugurated. He will be the President of the country, and of the whole country; and I doubt not will be as ready to defend and protect the State in which he has n

ide their ultimate position; and, while we declare for co-operation, we will firmly resist being dragged into secession. Maryland will not stand as a sentinel at the bidding of South Carolina, and we remind her, by the memories of the Revolution, that such a purpose cannot be justified; and, in conclusion, in a fraternal spirit, we entreat South Carolina to suspend all further action until such measures of peaceful adjustment have first been tried and have failed.
