Tim Battle-axe Fanatics. -The founder
tsf the Battle Axe doctrine is said to be a man
named Gates, who resided sometime since in
Philadelphia. His wife is also a believer in
this infamous and licentious fanaticism, and a
tnong the deluded followers, are twenty or
thirty families residing in Chester County.
The most frightful crimes have been committed
by some of these madmen. But it is hoped that
tho conviction and imprisonment of three or
four, wHl rouse the others from the delusion.
Hie details as given on the trials, are alto
gether unfit for publication. One of the wo
men who has been convicted, named William
son, is believed to be the same female who a
year or two ago, attempted to preach in the
Streets of Philadelphia, and was committed once
or twice for vagrancy. Gates has not yet been
vrrested, but it is hoped that he will be, and
also that he will be adequately punished.

A bold robbery was committed at the Cleve
Innd (Ohio) Post Office on the morning of the
3d instant, followed by a quick recovery of
the stolen properly. A thief effected an en
trance into the Post office, broke the glass of
the letter box-of Mr. J. S. Lake, Exchange
broker, and rifled it of its content, consisting
jf a package of $1220 in Bank notes, a drafl ol
4-)00 received by the Pittsburg mail the even
ing previous, and a draft of $790 by the Co
lumbus mail, and one or two letters. The same
Jay one of the lads engaged in the office, whilst
in search of an axe ho supposed had been left
in an old stove standing in the hall of the third
story of the building, thrust his hand into this
queer money vault and brought to light the
stolen packages with seals unbroken. The
presumption is, that the robber, fearing imme
diate pursuit, had in his haste made tho stove
temporary safe for his plunder. Thus by the
merest clianc the stolen property was re
covered without loss, and within an hour, pro
bably, alVr the robbery was effected. Dalit

The Paris correspondent of the National In
telligencer, in speaking of a work which has
recently appeared in Europe, and which treate
of the condition and employment of women and
children in various countries, says
In France tho employment of women in
mines is forbidden by law, and children under
ten years of sge cannot be listed for them le
gally; but this interdict is commonly infrin
ged or evaded. I have seen women toiling in
elate quarries, and they are every where enga
ged in the tillage and the worst drudgery of the
fields and the farm-yards, beyond the severest
and grossest fatiguesof the female negro slaves
in our Union. It is enough, to witness the
cleansing any morning of the streets of this ca
pital, to know the latst extremity of degradation
and hidcousncss to which the sex can be redu
