Female politicians. --The young ladies in Mount Holyoke. Female Seminary, at South Hadley, Mass., extemporized a Wide-Awake display on hearing of Mr. Lincoln's election. Two hundred and fifty of them provided themselves with lamps and marched through the entire building, from the basement to the fourth story. About thirty, who were supporters of Mr. Douglas, did all they could to blow out the lamps, but without effect. Next day these disappointed ones appeared at table dressed in deep mourning, to signify their grief at the "Little Giant's" defeat.
