Suspension of PurUous.
Washington,Nov. 22.—This evening’s
SUr says that c >n piratlvoly few applica
tions for pardon are now coming to tbe
Attorney General’s otike; tome days none
being received; never more than three
hundred. It will b* recollected that tho
President directed tLe suspension of tho
is.-ue of pardon warrants, except by spe
cial order. In obedience to I hose induc
tions, the Attorney General simply exam
ined th« ta c .e . ;«nd forwarded such as
might bo favorably acted upon (o tho.State
Department, wtiero an immense quantity
have accumulated. Yesterday tlm Presi
dent ordered thHt no more roquinitiono be
issued from the Attorney General's office;
thus, for tho pru-ont, spending most ot
the pardon business of that Department.
About twenty thousand pardons have boon
granted under the Amnesty Proclama
tion. These ine.ude eighteen from the
District of Oolurr.b a; about one hundred
from Florida, and two hundred from Ma
ryland; tbe number to each Statu incroas-

Carolina, Georgia and Alalums; the last
three having about two thousand five hun

that her officers and crow aro, in ajudij.m*
point of view, responsible lurtbor than
other combatants against the Federal au
thority. Tho battle of New Orleans—tho
boast, and pride, and glory of our country
—was fought and won subsequently to the
declaration of peace. The question sim
ply is, did Captain Waddell commit any
ho’stilo act after be received information
that, to a belligerent, should have been
conclusive, that the condition of belliger
ency was at an und ? That question it is
for tbe British Courts to decide, and there
is no appeal from the British judiciary to
that of the United States—except it be to
the judgment of war.—X. J'. iSciotf.
The Sheunudoah.
A Liverpool dispatch of November 7
to tho London News, says:
Tho Shenandoah still retaius her anch
orage in proximity to the Donegal, and a
company of marines are in possession of
the late cruiser. We yestorday stated that
Captain Waddell and some other of the
officers left tho ship after the formal sur
render, and landed at Liverpool, where
they separated. To-day, however, wo
leurn that Captain Waddell, after pledg
ing his word of honor to Commander
Fisher, R. N., of her Majesty’s ship Ea
gle, went ashore and c immunicatud with a
“Southern house,'' after which, according
to piomiso, he rejoined his ship. In the
meantime, however, three of tho crow left
tho ship and escaped to the Cheshire side
of the Mersy. It is believed that tire crow
of the Shenandoah have for some time
been short of provisions. A boat load of
fresh beef, vegetables, potatoes, «fcc., sent
of!*by some charitable Southerners, was
refused permission to go alongside tho
Shenandoah, the officers in charge Hating
that a proper supply of fresh rations would
bo served out to tho men by the Donegal.
On board the Shenandoah there are about
thirty-six chronometers, together with a
number of sextants, cabinet furniture,
furs, and other articles of value, which are
supposed to bo part of tho proceeds of
Waddell's late raids amotHr the whalers in
the Arctic seas. In her hold the/e still re
mains (in fact all articles aro under seal
until instructions are received from Gov
ernment) a largo quantity of ammunition,
toguther with six short guns, and a large
swivel gun. It is not at all impossible
that within a few days the Mersey may ho
visited by the Sacramento or other vessels
of tho United Stateg Navy, undor tho
command of Admiral Goldsworthy, whose
aquadron was last hoard of at Tonlon and
Brest. The vessel is now in charge of Lt.
Cheek, of her Majesty’s gunboat Gos
hawk, whom Captain Tayntor has placed
on bourd with secret instructions. There
aro a guard of marine?, a numbor of sea
men from the Donegal, and a body of cub*
tom officers, also in possession. There is
on hoard a considerable sum of money,
but Captain Waddell has no intention of
using this for the ship’s purposes. He has
preserved the' property as that of the
American Government. Consequently, he
and his officers and men aro without pe
cuniary resources. {Several of tho crew
who remain on board are down with tho
scurvy. Tho communications between
the Government and tbe authorities here
in refornneo to the Shenandoah have been,
and aro being, carried on by telegraph.
The crow aro stated to be, for the most
part, styart young fellows, and to have the
appearance of excellent seamen. They arh
of mixed nationality, aovotnl of them bo-
idg apparently Amcricuna.

European Winter Fashions.
It is nov/ time to begin to speak defi
nitely ot winter fashions, and coming first
under our notice are tho materials most
in vogue—poult de sole oinbroiderod c-?i-
talnly i3 one. They aro no longer the
same patterns as last winter, but are now
embroidered in black and while imitating
lace, forming a sort of waved band cross
ing over stars, wreaths or bouquets of
flowers of all kinds. This pattern may be
seen on blue, light brown, or violet, as
also upon black; but then a 1 the embroid
ery is white. These dresses need no trim
ming.
Although many ladies have adopted lho
fashion of plain skirts, it must not bo sup
posed that trimmed skirts are not well
worn. Indeed, we have only to call our
readers’ attention to the variety of' very
elegant pasiomentorie, to cor.vinco them
this is by no means the case. Tho novelty
of tho moment consists in placing above
tho horn a wide bund of passementerie,
forming also a pattern up each breadth.—
We have soen this in black and gold,
upon a velvet satin, and black and silver
upon blue moire.
Wo must still record that gold and sil
ver are Rrcatly in favor. Other p^somon-
torie trimmings aro made in h serins of
rings, or palm loaves interlaced, and put
on in distinct ornaments upon each
breadth.
As to the plain skirts, they are generally
scolloped round the bottom, and edged
with thick cord, in which is twisted u
thread of gold or silver. Linsey and
knickorbocker are worn as early ’morn
ing dies-, and these heavy materials ore
made with a vest and waistcoat, or chem
ise russe of embroidered cnchomire. The-
tight high body is not admissible—at least,
only with basquoo, and opened in front
over a waistcoat, perhaps of ombroiderod
percale or plaited muslin.
We have already mentioned doublo
skirts ns fashionable, but wo must repeat
the information, an every day bring- fresh
proof of its truth; and wheu the sleeve-
and underskirt aro different to the upper
skirt und low body it produces a very
stylish effect. What can bo prettier than
a dress of white silk, with an upper skirt
and frmall boddico ol bluo, green or ce
rise? By many ladies tho Princosso or
Gabriollo make is preferred, as lho dre^,
being cut in one piece, is considered to
give a more graceful flow to tho train,
which is worn as long or longer than over.
Wo have been asked whether there i?
anything fresh in tho make of sleeves. It
seems there is no chango whatever; still
the sleeve a coude—or small coat sleeve—
and certainly for tho cold weather thoy
aro very suitable. However, the small
fancy vests ef different shapes are likely
to be muck in favor. There will than be
plenty of opportunity for making use ol
the vary elogant lingorio which is now
seen.
Wo must not omit to mention thatClun-
ny lace is much used for trimmings. The
fashion of wearing a band outside tight
fitting cosaques continues to be adopted,
but they should never be worn with any
but those of cloth, oachamiro or plush.—
Several cointurcs suitable for this are made
of Kussiun.leuthor, with jet, pearl or steel
clous and buckle?.
Tho chapeau Empire has triumphed
ovor the chapeau fanchon, and, although
by no means so graceful as the latter, may
be said to reign hi tho present momont.—
The principal trimmings aro feathers and
lace, but gold is still worn.
Mr. Stunsel, of the Judiciary Commit
tee, to whom was referred nn act to fix
the price of the reports of the Supreme
Court, reported “thut the volume of re-
P'U'ls of select casos of tho Supremo Court
which was last published shall be sold at
tho pi ice of three dollars, and the reports
on hand which wero published previously
ahull be sold at the price of five dollars
per volume.”
Mr. Edwards offorod a resolution that
the Judiciary Committee be instructed to
prepare, at as eorly a day as practicable,
a bill providing for trial before Justices
of the l*eace of all cases of petit larceny,
assault and battery, vagrance, and other
misdemeanors, and report to the *Senate.

case with tho horse which had furnished

this metal had caused the poisoning.
However^ upon examining lho body of

A New Fuknch Toy.—The Paris^’cor

the following :
I suppose by this timo you are familiar
with the latest Paris triflo, yclept “Pha
raoh's Fiery Serpent” ? For four some of
your readers may still bo in ignorance of
this smallest of tho nine days’ prodigies, I
will tell them that they can buy for four
sous n tiny bit of white paper about a
quartos of au inch long, slightly conical
at ono end ; take a large white plate, put
the little round bit of paper on its base i
tho centre of the plato, light a match an_
apply it to tiie cone of the white mass,
which instantly proceeds to vomit a gray
substance that assumes a spiral form like
the windings of a serpent. A F'rench lady
who saw it for the first time exclaimed to
a friond of mine who showed her lho
chemical wonder, “O’est le diuble 1” and
hastened to clear tho plate. A disagreea
ble odor of sulphur, omitted while it is
burning, tends strongly to confirm tho
lady’s opinion.
