The most beautiful specimen of American female ingenuity and industry which has come under our observation, we examined yesterday at the Exchange. It is a hat, the materials of which grew in the town of Danvers, (Mass.) and were prepared and formed by a very young lady of that place. The colour, texture, and workmanship, of this hat, will not suffer on a comparison with the finest from Leghorn--and it furnishes also the pleasing assurance that a liberal encouragement towards the industry and enterprise of our worthy country-women is alone necessary to save to the country thousands of dollars which are now annually required for the payment of the imported article.--[Balt.
