Madam Pfaiffor, tha Traveler.
Who is Maiiame Pteitfer, and wliat is
•he gJid£ round the woild again forf
t^he is a Cennan lady, about fifty
seven years old, said to be iateligent,
wealthy, and accinplished, and to all
tpperance perfectly sane on every subject
except it be that of traveling, which she
does entirely alone, aad on tb« lar
gest scale.
Her husband and two sons, one a gov
ernment official and the other an artist,
liv# in Germany. In 1816 she set out
on a journey round the world. She went
first to Brazil, attracted by its magnifi
cient forests and flowers.
Here she came very near being mur
dered by a black ruffian, who undertook
to rob her. She still showes the scars
she received, but states with evident
satisfaction that she cut off three of his
fingers in self-defenca, when fortunately
he'p came to her relief. She then em
barked at Rio, doubled the Horn, visited
Valparaiso, took passage in another
vessel to Tahiti, and among other mem
entoes of her sojourn there, Srought away
Queen Tomare's autograph.
From Tahiti she went to China, then
to Calcutta, then ovt rland across Bridish
India to Bombay, from there by steam
to Uussorali and Bagdad, then with a
caravan to Mosul and the ruins of Nine
veh, whence she brought several pieces
of sculpture, and thence lo Croomia, o!
course with varied aJveutures. At nu
merous places she was hospitably recei
ved and entertained by the Protestant
missionaries. She is herself a Catf.olic.
From Oroomia she proceded to 'la
brees, the it to I'iflis, and across the Cau
casus, through European Russia to Qie
nua,aud reach home after# tour of a little
more than two years.
As her stock of language is limited
she is obligeJ much ol the time to depe
nd upon sigus. One of her cardinal
i rules is never lo betray fear, in whatever
danger she may be, and another is to
dress and live cheaply and economically,
two precautions that have doubtless con
duced largely to her safety.
Madam Pfe lfer, in her land jourwys,
took but a single horse her small trunk
beiug hung on one side of him, her bed
on the other, and she riding between.
Her voyage round the world cost her
somewhat less than $2,000.
In IS")I she set out again, aad •pent
two years in Australia and the East
Indies. She then visited California and
Oregon, thence through Ivuador she
went to Panama and took steaine for
New Oilcans, then up the .Mississippi to
St. Pauls, and down the lake to Montreal,
from whence she came to New Yoik^
She is now on her way through the
Atlantic States, after which she will
agatn turn homeward, thus completing
her second journey round the earth.
A description of her strange and multi
farious adventures could not but enter
taining. She fakes copious notes and
observations, and will probbly, 'f she
lives, embedy them in an elaborate work.
A subordinate object of her travels is
to gather flowers and insects, of whiih
she has no.v an immense collection.
She is already kno^n as the authoress
of a work on Iceland and Palestine, 0»e
fruit of her early journeying.

TIPTON, IOWA-WEDNESDAY. AUG. 2n, 1855.
A BLACK IICAKTED VILLI*.— The
Masous ot Chester, Illinois, have expell
ed from their lodge one Dr Gordon, for
infatrous conduct. The St Louis Herald
gives the following particulars ol the oc
curence. This Gordon graduated in one
of the medical schools of this city, and
removed to Chester with Dr. Ferris. He
i has an amiable wife and several children,
From some cause the son of Dr Ferris
disliked Gordon and they remained ene
mies until the death of Dr. Ferris. Gor
don then made friends with young Fer
ris, and became intimate with a beautiful
young lady to whom he was ^engaged to
be married.
Ferris removed to Cincinnati,and during
his absence, Gordon used every art in his
power to seduce the young girl but fail*,

ftaSThe following paragraph relative
to the Davenport and Missouri Railroad
we find "lying around loose,'' in our Chi

therefore adopt it as our own and intro

sume the road is finished ere this lime to
Walcott, of which fact we contemplata to
soon satisfy ourselves ocularly.
"Messrs. Farnam and Durant, con
tractors for the road from Davenport, lo*
wa, to Council IMufls, are pushing on the
work with great vigor. Iron sufficient
to complete the road trom Davenport to
Iowa city, about sixty miles, has already
been sent forward, and the grading ol
that portion as will as of much that is
beyond Iowa City, »8 nearly ready for
the superstructure. The road will, it is
believed, lie in operation to Iowa City in
December next. Contracts have been
made for thirteen first class locomo'ive*,
of which twelve are being built by-

Bill Larkms, who is what may be de

once shook hands with General Jackson.

them a bright-eyed boy numbering four
or five summers, th« pet of the house

little mischief alive. Ou Saturday night
he had been bribed to keep pence, and
retire to bed an hour earlier than usual,
with the promise that on the morrow he
might go with the family to church. On
the morning it was found inconvenient to
put the youngster through the regular
course of washing and dressing necessa
ry for his proper appears r.ce at the sanc
tuary and the frmtly slipped off without
him. They had not, however, more than
got comfortably seated in their pew when
in walked the youngster with nothing on
but a niirht-wrapper and a cloth cap.

CSS* The problem of acquiring heat
Without fuel appears to have been solved
by the invention of the machine of M.
Beaumont and Mayor, with which, by
means of friction alone, they can make
water boil. The machine, which may be
seen at work at their establishment on
the C|uai Valmy, contains 100 litres of
water which is made to boil in two hours.
A cone of wood, which turns in a cylin
der, so as to produce the necessary fric
tion, is covered with tow and the tow in
order that it may not take fire is kept
constantly moistened by a stream of oil
winch runs on it. The heat gradually
inc ejses until at last steam is genera

TICOATS.—These
are the great levers
lhat govern the world. Without them
the bottom would fall out and society
would become chaos again. The press
make people patriotic, the pulpit reli
gious, but woman sway all things. There
would be no going to church if there
were no girls there, neither would there
be any going to war were the soldiers to
meet with n applause but from the mas
calines. Without the sunshine shed by
woman, the rosebud of affection would
never grow, noT the flowers of eloquence
germinate. In short, she is the steam en
gine of life, the great motive p-wer of
love, valor and civilization. In proof ol
this truth all history apeaka trumpet
tongued.

"Let them learn first,, says Paul, to
show piety at home." Religion begins
in the family. That sort only shining a
broad is a very suspicious son. One of
the holiest sanctuaries on earth, is home.
The family alatr is more venerable than
any altej in the cathedral. The educa
tion or the soul for eternity begins by the
fireside- The principle of love which is
to be carried through the universe is first
unfolded in the family.
A
ing in his hellish desifti, he administered
certain drugs, and then triumphed over
her virtue. By threats of exposure he for
ced her to continue the criminal connec
tion, anl received frvn her, letters ack
nowledging her guilt.
A short time ago Ferris returned to
Chester, and, thinking his betrothed still
innocent, married her Gordon,who had
never really forgiven Ferris the injuries
of the past, placed a package of his wife's
letters in his way, which told the whole
story of her crime. His first thought was
to take the life of the destroyer of his
peace, but not meeting him, and reflect
ing that his wife might be equally guilty
he left the village, and has never returned.
The excitement growing out of the affair
was intense, and the masons piomptly
expelled Gordon from the lodge.
SfcUTA supposed diamond of an extra
ordinary size has been recently found in
Lancaster connty, Peun., and is now de
posited in prof. Phillips* office, Philadel
phia. It is colorless, perfectly crysta
line,resembling a drop of clear spring wa
ter, in the middle of which is observable
a strong light playing with a great deal
of spirit. I his specimen has rather a
rough coat, but it is clear of Haws or
veins, and no blemish can be seen in the
body of the stone. The geological local
ity where this beautiful specimen waa
found is diluvial gravel, fragments of
quartz or rolled pebbles of quartz, mixed
with furriginous sands. Its accompany
ing minerals are inicacious iron ore and
slaty jaspt rs, and found to be a little be
low the earth. This valley will undergo
a thon-ugli senrch for more of its hidden
treasures. The geologist does not pro
nounce it to be of the first water althougl
there is not the least doubt of its being
of considerable value. Offers of import
ance, it is said, have been declined for it.
Nothing like it, U is supposed, was ever
before discovered in the United Slates.

and true than the following.
'The true woman, for whote ambition

themselves in making laws for her nurse,

whose heart askes no other honor ihan

does not think it a weakness to attend to
her toilet, and does not disdain to be
beautiful: who believes in the virtue of
g'ossy hair and well- fitting gowns, an
eschews rents and ravelled edges, slip

woman who speaks low and dose not
speak much who is patient and gentle,
and intellectual and industrious who
loves more than she reasons, and rarely
argues, but adjusts with a smile such a

THEFT or TIME.—The man who is
diligent in his master's work no longor
than when his eye is upon him—who
only waits for his absence to slacken his
industry, de erves not the character of

master of his lime, and if he continues to
indulge that idle disposition, will too
probably be induced, when opportunity
