As Aqe Magnitude.— We live, says the New Yotc Hera.d, in the age of great events. Everything which is done now ia on a scale ot magnitude never before con templated. The gigantic Atlantic cable is being laid by the largest ship in the world. The Suez Canal, uniting the Mediterranean and Red Seas, will soon be completed. The tunnel through the Alps at Mount Ccnis will find no impediment to its successful con struction by the discovery of almost im penetrable quarts. The Hoosic tunnel will be a fait accompli. The city of Chicago is about, to be supplied with water from Lake Mich', gan by a tunnel bored under its bed. J j this city, on Saturday, we bad another evidence of the magnitude withwt'.ch tk’ngs are done in these days. Si* enormous boilers, one of which alone we jghed sixty tons, were safely, put - on boar( i the gunboat Dunderberg with mechanical precision, and an ease-which to those uninitiated in the business looks posi tively marvellous. The ponderous machine ry, the largest ever built, was deposited in the hull of the largest iron-clad* ever con structed without the slightest difficulty or disaster. These are a few of the works of immense magnitude which characterise the present age. A Dramatization of Milton’s Paradise Lost” is played in Paris, which mortally offends an English critic who thus writes : “The idea of so brutalizing one’s idea of Paradise as to bave it represented by the scene painter, with the tree of knowledge in the second grooves, and Adam and Eve dis puting about the forbidden fruit in language not even ot the choicest_ description, is as tonishing enough, but when, in the fourth act, the sonS of Cain are represented danc ing a ballet, with Aodern sensuous acces sories, it becomes to an English mind simply shocking, or even disgusting.” Death of Capt. Perclvnl Drayton, C. S. IV. (From the Troy (K. Y.) Sews, August«.] Captain Percival Drayton, a highly accom plished and esteemed officer of the United States Navy and Chief of the Bureau of Navi gation and Detail of the Navy Department, died at the Rugby House, in this city, ut 11 45 p. m. yesterday. Capt. Drayton was born in South Carolina on the 25th of August, 1812. He was the son of Hon. Wm. Drayton, a prominent po litical leader, and yhom Gen. Jackson ad vised President Monroe to take into his Cabi net as Secretary of War at the time Mr. Cal houn was appointed. Col. Drayton was a member of Congress from South Carolina frem 1825 to 1838, and a prominent member of tLe Unio» party in that State in opposition to the nullification in 1830, and who, on account of his sentiments, determined to seek another ftesidence. He removed to Philadelphia, and succeeded Nicholas Biddle as President of the United States Bank. Capt. Drayton entered the Navy as mid shipman in December, 1827, wai promoted to lieutenant in February, 1838, and from that time to 1852 was successively attached to the Brazilian, Mediterranean, and Pacific squadrons. He was then ordered to the Na tional Observatory in this city, and subse quently assigned to ordnance duty in New York.' His promotion as commander was made in 1855 ; he was in the Paraguay expe dition in 1858, and in the subsequent year was ordered to the Brazilian squadron on the staff of the present Admiral Shubrick. In 1860 he was assigned to ordnance duty at the Philadelphia yard, and was upon that ser vice at the breaking out of the rebellion. He heartily, and without hesitation, en tered earnestly into all the measures ofj the Government for the defence of the Union, rejecting all the overtures of his nearest rela tives to take part with the South against his country. He was appointed to the com mand of the steamer Pocahontas in the ex- Stdition against Port Royal, under Admiral upont, and on that occasion fought against his brother, Gen. T. F. Drayton, (a graduate ot West Point,) who commanded the rebel troops at Hilton Head. He was afterwards transferred to the PAwnee, in which vessel he was of great service oh the Southern coast. He made repeated reconnoissances up St. Helena Sound and adjacent waters ; was at the capture of Fernandina and St. Mary's, the occupation of Stono river, Ac. He was promoted to Captain on the 16th of July, 1862, and in the fall of that year was ordered to the monitor Fassiac, the second of that class of vessels. In this iron-clad he bombarded Fort McAllister, and was in the first attack upon Fort Sumter, under Adini* ral Du Pont. After a short ordnance duty in New York, he was appointed Fleet Captain ot the West Gulf squadron, under Admiral Farragut, and whs with him in the Hartford at the time of the fight with and capture of the rebel fleet in Mobile hay, one vear aim to day. (August 5,1865.) He Admiral Farragut until the Teturn of that officer to New \ ork, and perhaps no one in the navy enjoyed his confidence to a greater extent than Capt. Drayton. On the'’Bth of of April last he was appointed Chief of the Bureau of Navigation, as successor to Rear Admiral Davis. Such is a brief record of his service—more varied and important than usually falls u> the lot of a naval officer. It is not too much to say that he was universally considered one of the best officers of the navy, thoroughly accomplished in his profession, of unques tioned bravery, cool and determined in bat tle, and whose advice at all. times was wor thy of regard He bad a keen sense of pro fessional honor, was an officer of strict in tegrity and truthfulness, and one who per mitted no partialities to interfere with his duty. Although born at the South, aud with near kindled still there, he shrunk from * co duty during the rebellion, and though his devo tion to the flag severed the dearest ties of affection and placed him in position to iliffit against liis own brother, he never for anln want faltered in his duty to his country For his unswerving devotion to the Union the Legislature of his native State has, by name, proscribed him and declared him in wnouL . Drayton was a finished scholar, well read m the French, German, Spanish aud uaiian languages, and adorned the walks of •mi,? 16 ? Bwe '* as professional life. He was y a , Cllrißtian g e «tt'enian.

A Fortress Monroe corresponded of the Petersburg lodex, under date of July 2»tk, writes: Ilaidly anything is spoken of here save the intense beat and the military changes which daily occur from the moving of troops to their homes. Yesterday, however, a little incident trans pired, which will prove of interest to your readers. Mr. Davis, as you are aware,’ has l>een allowed for several days past the privi lege of walking on the ramparts. • An officer accompanies him, afid a guard, armed with musket, follows some five or ten feet in the rear. A. similar indulgence is granted Mr. Clay, under the same restrictions. Care seems to have been taken that they should not be out at the same time, hut last evening, probably through inadvertence, they were permitted to be out at the same hour, aud during their promenade they met- • It was the first friendly face, save the sur geon's that cither prisoner had seen tor months, aud the emotions that rushed upon the hearts of both may be imagined. Mr. Clay extended his band, remarking: “ Though we are not permitted to hold conversattnn, Mr Davis, I presume we will not be forbidden to shake hands." The accompanying officers made no ob jections, and the two gentlemen clasped hands with a fervor and feeling such as rare ly attends this familiar courtesy. Mr. Davis’ thin lips quivered, but proba bly-from bis desire to observe scrupulously the rules of his confinement, lie uttered no word. To-day the rule was adopted of appoint ing different houts for the promenade, and Mr. Davis walked alone this morning at fi. Mr. Clay will enjoy the same privilege this eveaitYg. Fanliton Gossip. It passes our comprehension, sitting, this suffocating day. in our little room with closed blinds excluding the sun, and a constant waving of fans in the air to bring forth a faint pretence of coolness, how the unhappy females still enclosed within the city’s hot limits can exist in the fearful and wouderful toilets in which they select to perambulate tlie streets; and we can readily understand that they must bless the light and airy hoop skirt even more that usual. Without that merciful crinoline how would it he possible at all to carry the load of white filled aud fluted skirts, overlopped with the flounced or flluted dress skirt! Blessed hoop skirt! A million female voices rise this day to sing your praises; and a million beautiful dresses floating down or looped up over (according as the wearers are within doors or without) these same hoop skirts display their loveli ness to our admiring gaze. As it is impossi ble that we should give a description of any thing like that somewhat overwhelming number, as wc hasten to present to ouf read- ers as many poriraits of good dressing our space will admit of. Batege dress of Marie Louise blue ; the skirt trimmed with a wide box plaiting of the same, set on round the bottom, and beaded with Guipure inserting over white ribbon; the waist gathered into two or three plaits, and get in a belt; sleeves a narrow coat pattern, and trimmed with white ribbon and Guipure to match the skirt. Fawn colored silk, bound round the bottom with velvet to match, finished off with a heading of white cord. Corsage with poiuls in front and basquines behind, trimmed with velvet and cord to match the skirt, and but toned down the front with glass buttons set in silver. Coat sleeves trimmed to corres pond with velvet and cord. AH sleeves are coat sleeves now; the difference consists merely in having them larger or smaller, In having them cut up the side aud slashed, corded and variously trimmed ; indeed, a new style of sleeve is very much required, although the coat sleeve is neat, elegant, pretty, particularly well suited to the wearing of undersleeves. We particularly admire a walking suit of black silk,. which consisted of dress and short sacque to match. The skirt was trimmed with Guipure insertion, put on in a double row,aud crossing at each breadth in a diamond-shaped figure. The waist was a French pattern, set on a belt, with sleeves of the ordinary shape, and trimmed to cor respond with the skirt. The sacque which accompany these suits are so simple as to require no description. This one was trim med around the skirt and on the sleeves to correspond exactly with the dress. The bon net worn with this toilet was of rose, pink crape in folds, trimmed round the front with a niching of white fillies of the valley, and iuside with the same; pink strings, and crown set off with bows and ends of narrow pink ribbon, and of while blonde lace,with a single bunch of white valley lillies. Black gloves, stitched with pink.. We have not seen a more recherche street costume this season. Our ladies have a monstrous habit of mix ing colors in dress, so that it is not unusual to see a dress, mantel, bonnet and glovea of contrasting shades; and when we do see a harmonious toilet it is pleasing exceedingly to the beauty loving eye. English papers inform us that at a recent ball in London there was such a large number of ladies wear ing the Josephine style of dress that it looked very much like being the prevailing fashion. This new vagary has not yet reached <\prown shores, aud we hope it may not, for the fash ion is one little calculated to display to ad vantage the slight and girlish figures of which our young ladies, at least, are so justly proud. The hideous bonnets with which we have been threatened from abroad, have not yet becu inflicted on us either, and we earnestly trust that they will not; for the present cha peau has CQdeared itself to us now, and we do not desire to see it give place to a large, unwieldy, curtainless, crowuless concern which will sit merely across the forehead, and destroy even the pretty air of full dress coiffure, which distinguishes the bonnet of to day. Gloves, always an indispensable requisite in a lady’s wardrobe drawer, again appear in all their delicate hues; tht reason being man ifest to all purchasers of the sapte. The price has declined one dollar on each pair. A hun dred charming novelties in veils, headgear, nets, handkerchiefs and the like little kuick nacks keep-pouring in. Anew and extreme ly convenient contrivance called the perfume vaponizer should be tound ou every lady’s toilet stand. It is so contrived that it seuds out a thousand dewy-sprinklings of whatev er perfume it is inserted into, and so dis tributes the sweet smelling particles over dress, mantle, bonnet and gloves, scenting all and wetting none; and as a means of perfuming far superior to the pouring on or the liquid.— .V. 1". News. On Friday evening, Minnie Pbalen, twen ty-one years of age, entered the furnishing store of Mr. Gustave Bael, 198 Grand street, NY., and assaulted him with a cowhide. Mr. Bael resisted her vigorous castigation, and took up a stick in sell defence. James I orrest, aud who was in the young lady's company, then seized Bael, while Minnie be labored him with the cowhide. MissPhalen states in explanation of her conduct, that she visited Baer's store early on Monday morn ing last to purchase some articles, and that atter the articles were put up the storekeeper charged her more than ahe had agreed to pay. She therefore refused to take the pur chase and demanded back her money, which demand was refused by Baer, who called her, she alleges, names which did not belong to her. Hence the cowbiding. A young woman, very handsome and about eighteen was pickep up in a Chicago street on Wednesday, at first supposed to be drunk, but afterwards found to be suffering trom some drug. She was not restored to consciousness until the next day, when she refused to tell who she was or where she came from. “One more unfortunate.” t po ? the read ‘ng of the Declaration of Independence at Ypsilantl, Michigan, by a cmzen of that place, a gentleman from the ru ™ district# made this comment: “O, he read it well enough, but darned If l believe he wrote it.” lIiOCAL Mattkr m.

Daring Hobbeky.—Yesterday afternoon, a gentle man of tills city, who lives on a prominent street, went to the Savannah and Ogeecbec Canal, near the Central Railroad Hildg*. for the purpose of taking a bath. His clothes were placed on tu# bank of the Canal, In charge of a colored l*,y. Several other jiersnus were also In the canal bathing ; two of them, old offenders against the laws, were recognized by several persons. These old offenders. It seems, made a bargain with S youngster well known as a horse tldef, to convey their clothes some distance off. On his return, he signaled where to and them. As our merchant varied his ablutions by diving into the Canal, the two thieves, ia a nude state, made for his clothes and secured his gold watch aud chain. On coming to the surface he was Informed of the fact by the colored Ito.v attending to the clothes. The latter, not lielug able to And the clothes he hail lieen left In charge or, was arrested for complicity In the robbery. The property lias not yet been recovered.

July 12,1565, ') Circular, ) No. 11. / Instructions to Assistant Commissioners and other Officers. Each Assistant Commissioner will be careful, in the establishment of sub-districts, to have the office of bis agent at some point easy, of access for the people of the sub-district. He will have at least one agent, either a citizen, military officer, or enlisted man. In each snb-district. This agent must be thoroughly instructed in his du ties. He will be furnished with the proper blanks for contracts, and will Institute methods adequate to meet tlie wants of his district in accordance with the rules of this Bureau. No fixed rates of wages will be pre scribed for a district, but in order to regulate fair wnvpg in given individual cases, the agent should have in mind minimum rates for his own guidance By care ful inquiry as to the hire of au able-bodied man when the pay went to the master, he will have an approxi mate test of the value of labor. He must of conrse consider the entire change of circumstances, aud be sure that the laborer has due pi otection against avarice and extortion. Wages had better be secured by a lien on the crops or land. Employers are desired to enter into written agreements with employees, setting lorth stated wages, or securing an interest in the land or crop, or both. All snch agreements will be approved by the nearest agent, and a duplicate filed in his office. In case there should be no agent within reach, the nearest postmaster will forward the duplicate of con tracts direct to the Assistant Commissioner for the State. Atjention is specially called to section 4 of the law establishing the Bureau, with regard to setting apart land to "every male citizen, whether refugee or freed man," Ac., and the same arrangement la recommend ed when it can be effected, between private parties. Already many farmers have rented lands to freedmen aud refugees This course Is a recognition of the gen eral principal in the law. In order to enforce the fulfillment of contracts on both contracting parties, the Commissiouor of the Bu reau lays down no general rule—the Assistant Com missioner must use the privileges and authority he already has. Provost courts, military commissions, locat courts, when the freedmen and refugees have equal rights with other people, are open to his use. In the great majority ol cases his own arbitrament, or that of his agent, or the settlement by referees, wll be sufficient. No Assistant Commissioner, or agent, is Authorized to tolerate compulsory unpaid labor, except for the legal punishment of crime. Suffering may result to some extent, but suffering is preferred to slavery, and is to some degree the necessary consequence of events. In all actions the officer should never forget that no substitute for slavery, like apprenticeship without proper consent, or peonage, (1. e., either holding the people by debt, or confining them, without consent, to the laud by any system,; will be tolerated. The Assistant, Commissioner will designate one or more ot bis agents to act as the general superinten dent of schools fone for each State; lor refugees aud freedmen. This officer will work as much as possible in conjunction with State officers who may have school matters in charge. If a general system can be adopt ed for a State, it Is well; but if not, he will at least take cognizance of all that is being done to educate refugees and freedmen, secure proper protection to schools and teachers, promote method and efficiency, correspond with the benevolent agencies which are supplying his field, and aid the Assistant Commission er m mating his required reports. Surgeon C. W. Horner, Chief Medical Officer of the Bureau, will have the general supervision or medical’ matters connected with refuges and freedmen. The Assistant Commissioners will instruct their medical officers, as they have iustrusted other officers, to make the medical department self-supporting as far as possible. All public addresses of a character calculated to create discontent are reprehensible ; but the Assistant Commissioner And his agents must explain, by con stant recapitulation, the principles, laws, and regula tions of this Bureau, to all parties concerned. It 1* recommended to the Assistant Commissioners to draw up lit writing a carelnl summary to be publicly and privately read by agents throughout their respective districts. O. O.
