GENERAL OBSERVATIONS ON FASHION A DRESS
Therry velvet is a favourite material for din
ner and evening costume. Some dresses of
this beautiful material, in pink, blue, and white,
have been made with front trimmings fern-
broidery. This has a very rich effect.
For neglige evoning dress, satin, either black,
white or of any dark tint, is much adopted.
One of the prettiest styles of ornamenting these
dresses consists of a front trimming of rows of
narrow velvet ribbon and fancy buttons, put on
in the ecbelle style. This trimming is contin
ued from the skirt up the front of the corsage.
French cashmere dresses have front trim
mings of passementerie or of velvet, ribbon. To
these dresses is sometimes added a pelerine,
pointed in tho front and at the back. The
sleeves may be worn with under-sleeves of
white muslin.
A dress of brown velvet, intended for full
evening costume, bus recently been made for a
lqdy of high rank. The skirt is trimmed up
each side with three bouquets of velvet camel
lias and foliage,tho space between the bouquets
being ornamented with satin ribbon, the colour
of the dretos. Corsage low ; berthe descend
ing to a point in front of the waist, and edged
with guipure of the same tint as tbo velvet.
The space between the sides of the berthe is
filled up by an echelle of diamonds. Sleeves
short, edged with guipure, looped up on the
inside of the arm by a diamond brooch.

The Cotton Market.—The New York Cour
ier, in view of the disopppointment that re
sulted from the Canada’s advices, says it has en
deavored to discover the cause of the reaction
itk Liverpool, and finds from tho general tenor
of the letters that a powerful, and as it resulted,
a successful effort was made by parties there,
at the date of the sailing of the Niagara, the
4th ult.,’to weaken the confidence of tbeLiv-
'erpool merchants and tho Manchester spinners
in a lower estimate of .the crop than 23 a 2,-
500,000 bales. Spinners,misled, withdrew (rom
the murketand speculators who had not Usabili
ty to stem the current of opinion, were forced
to realize. Buyetsof goods und’yarns with
drew also, awaiting the effect of a decline in
tho raw meterial, and hence, although stocks
were light, the demand was insufficient to sus
tain prices. The accredited estimate in Liver
pool on the 23d ult. was 2,300,000 bales, with
a leaping to 2,350,000 bales, and in Manches
ter, 24 a 2,500,OOfkbales. With this view, and
in the expectetion of increased estimates, and
advice of increased shipments, by succeed
ing steamers from this side, many withdrew
their orders perCanadn, and those who did not
reduced them. Theobjoctinview of those who
have thus willfully misinformed tho sellers and
buyei'S of Colton in Great Britian tins undoubt
edly to a certain extent been accomplished.
The unfavorable advices in answer, have com
pelled many parties to force tho sale of their
Cotton at a serious decline. But the correct
ness of those who, in good faith, advised mod
cratesestimotea. is being daily established by
the rapid falling off in the receipts at the pons
Whatever be the reaction, therefore, it the
crop does not dxceed (as it is now generally-
conceded itwillnot)21 a 21.50,000 bulcs, the
future must determine the price that will check
the consumption (not-yet reduced) in the ratio
of tho supply.
Important and Interesting Experiments.—
The New Water Gas.—During the past two
weeks there huve been several interesting tests
and experiments made to-asceriain and demon
strate the relative qualities of coal gas and wa
ter gas, as invented and patented by Mr-
Brown, of this city. The result of experi
ments last week,were much the same as on Mon
day evening; therefore we proceed to give the
last results. Numerous highly scientific gen-
tlemen.were present, who were familiar and
conversant with the subjeot,' both chemically
and. scientifically, among' whom were Pro
fessors Heath, W aterman, and others, of this
city, who carefully noted the various expet
ments. , <■ ,
Therosults were, that, the water gas consum
ed 2 and 6 tenths cubic feet per hour, and gave
a light equal to 25 sperm candles. After gradu
ating tho gas burner to give light of different
powors, and testing them properly, the appara
tus was applied to tho pipe supplying coal gas
from the Baltimore Coal Gas Works. The same
pressure was used as for the water gas, and the
same g»s burner consumed 4 feet of coal gas
hour,and gave the light of less than 6 cand
The results were so astounding to several of
the gentleman present, that the experiments
were repeated, timed and measured with the
, greatest accuracy, and the results as before—
namely, the water gas consuming 2 and 6-10ths
cubic feet, gave light equal to 25 candles, and
coal gas consuming 4 feet, gave less light than
6 candles.
jj The same apparatus, presure, test-light' and
gas burner were used in one gas as in the other.
The metre used is constructed to divide the
cubic loot into tenths, and so arranged ns
see and regulate the pressure accurately. These
experiments, which the proprietors of the pa
lp tent, “Brown, Giddings, & Co. Baltimore,” are

Nashville Convention. — Pursuant to
public notice, the citizens of Chatham county
espectivo of party,convened at the Exchange
Long Room, last evening, for the purpose of
considering the propriety of nominating Dele
gates to the Nashville Convention.
Dr. Richard Wayne. Mayor of the city,
was called to the chair, and Maj. W. P. Bowen
ppointed Secretary.
Onmotion of Dr. W. C. Daniell, seconded
Judge Law, it was
Resolved, That the meeting adopt to the
fullest extent the recommendations of the State
Legislature of this State for the appointment
Delegates to the Nashville Convention.
On motion of Judge Law, it was
Resolved, Thai a Committeo be appointed
by each of the political parties of this county, to
recommend one candidato and one (alternate
each, to represent the 1st Congressional Dis

Committee report to an adjourned meeting.
The Chair appointed the following gentle-

On the part of the Whigs—Judge W. Law,
Gen. W. P. White, J. L. Locke, Esq., Judge
W. B. Fleming,and Maj. W. P. Bowen.
On the part of the Democrats—Judge R. M.
Charlton, Dr. W. C. Daniell, Dr. J. P. Screven
Dr. R. D. Arnold, and T. E. Lloyd, Esq.
The meeting then adjourned, to .meet again
this evening, at the Lame place and hour, when
the Committee will report.
£3' We see it stated in our Northern ex
changes that Captain Rynders, of “Empire
Club” notoriety, has been appointed bearer of
despatches to California. If this be true, which
we very much doubt, we would not be surpris
od hereafter to see Yankee Sullivan or Tom
Hykr receive similar uppointments.
From Washington.
The correspondent of the Charleston Cou
rier in his letter of the 16th says:
Mr.Foote’s proposition for a Committee of
thirteen was so much opposed by many Sena
tors, that ho has concluded not to press it. till
the debnto ho* been further prosecuted. Many
who oppose the proposition now, will vote lor
it after u full discussion.
There is much feeling among the Southern
Senators in regnrd to the positions of Mr. Cal
houn, and it is, of course, likely to lend to dis
sension in their ranks.
Tlie correspondent of the Baltimore Sun
snys:
The coming week will # be n very important
one for great national purposes. If I iniatuke
not, important bills wilt bo introduced in both
Houses, tending ton compromise of the great
question now disturbing the peace and welfare
of tho country.
The affiliated presses of Mr. Clayton do not
entirely (in fact not at all) follow the handsome
lead of the “Republic.” nor the more poised-
on-a pivot views of the “Intelligencpr.” Mr.
Clayton’s organs in New work and Philadel
phia keep on throwing cold water on all plans
of compromise so as to keep ths question open
for another tug. The slavery question acts as
a curtain to all other questions, nnd there are
naturally parties that are unwilling to let the
screen fall which separates them from the
scrutiny of the intruder. There are those who,
when tho screen falls, might, in imitation ofthe
inimitable comedy of Sheridan, be induced to
cry out;
“Lady Teazle, by all that’s wonderful!
I.udy Teazle, by all that.s damnable I I”
Parties are fast remodeling in both Houses,
and Mr. Clay and Mr. Webster will certainly
be borno along triumphantly, by a large majori
ty. What a ticket it would be :
For President Henry Clay of Kentucky ;
For Vice President: Daniel Webster, of Mass.
Another correspondent of the same paper
says—
Whatever anxiety has prevailed as to the
result of the present difficulties, it mny bo con
sidered as certainly removed. California will
be admitted as u State , and with her assumed
boundaries. The fugitive slavo bill will pass.
No territorial governments will be established;
but necessary legislation will be given New
Mexico and Deseret. Tlie question on tho
Texas boundary will either be settled, or an of
fer will be made to Texas, which will lead to a
settlement at some early day, and the compact
made with her as to the admission of new
states, will be respected—There will be no
legislation as to slavery or the slavo trade in
this district at present.
This adjustment will probably lead to a reor
ganization of parties r and there must be, both
in the North and South, a great democratic.
Union party, founded on broad and national
principles. Those who, like Mr. Seward, unit
ed with the whig party for the purpose of con
verting it to an abolition instrument, will sepa
rate from it, and become allied to the faction
led by Mr. Van Buren at the late election.
It is said that the agents of the Cuban revo
lutionists are issuing ecrip, based on the success
of their contemplated enterprise.
The board of Mexican commissioners will
adjourn about the 10th April, till the next au
tumn.
A Washingto n letter writer, under Jato
of 18th inst.. says :—
From present appearances, there is no doubt
but that- Mr.- Webster’s position will be tri
umphantly sustained in New England nnd Now
York ; nnd that the administration will huve to
adopt his platform. I have reason to know
that the veteran patriot Clay himself will sus
tain Mr. Webster, setting the country a noble
example of disinterestedness and genuine pat
riotism. Both Mr. Clay and Mr. Webster will
■ reply to Mr. Sewurd. Mr. Badger
was to-day quoting the Bible against him.
On Friday
Reoulations for the Trial of Profes
sor Webster.—The trial of professor Web-
stci, at Boston, for the alleged murder of Dr.
Porkman, Was to commcnco on Thursday.
It is evident that it is to absorb almost wholly
the public attention at Boston, (as it will to a
great’ extent through out tho country,) during
its progress, and tho sheriff has accordingly
established specific regulations to govern all
tho parties who will bo present. Tho report
ers for the press will be seated at tublcs provi
ded for them : and, to facilitate thoir entrance
to the Court-house, pass tickets will be furnished
to such reporters on application to the sheriff.
Witnesses and jurors will occupy seats outside
the bar, and in consequence of the large num
ber of those to be present oil the first day of
the trial, luw students cannot be admitted that
day at all. On Wednesday, when they do come

The Tunnel.—We learn from the Ringgold
Republican that the 1st of July next, is the
most remote period fixed upon, by the contrac
tor, for the consummation of this great work.
The editor says that a new system of manage
ment has been adopted at that point, by which
the safe and speedy transportation of goods n-
cross the Hill will be effectually insured. A pas
senger train and freigitt train are running daily
between Ringgold and Chattanoogu. The travel

From Jamaica.—The Falmouth (Jamaica)
Post of the 27th ult., acknowledges the receipt,
of two samples of cotton in Trelawnay parish,
but says nothing as to the quality of them,
correspondent of the Kingston Journal, writing
from St. Dgrothy’s parish, says :
The seasons have been just what could have
been wished. The rains commenced, as of old
with Twelfth Day, and have been very well
followed up since. The spring has now set in
vigorously, and the fields are beautiful to be-
hold. Tne sugar crop will he, uo^with9tand
irjp, very short indeed. Ground provisions and
corn are abundant.”
The Way They Change Money in New-
York.—Tlie other day, a green one,—as they
call all who are not adepts in the sience of
cutcness,—asked an individual whom he saw
standing in the doorway of a respectable res
taurant, if he would do him the favor to change
a three dollar bill. “With pleasure,” replied
the person addressed. “Walk in, Sir.” On
reaching the counter, the polite individual ask
ed the other what he would taka. “Nothing;
I thank you,” replied the other, adding that ho
never drank spirits. Whereupon the polite
gentleman called for brandy, drank off his glass,
passed tho three dollar bill to the “gentleman
of the bar,” who returned the proper change,
which the obliging individual very politely
handed over to the owner of the before men
tioned hill, coolly remarking, “there is your
change, sir.” The bill holder was utterly as
tounded at the operation, but like the boy the
calf ran over, hadn’t a word to say. '
Fatal Disease at Libertytown, Mb.
Dr. Thos. Sim states, in tho Banner, published
at Libertytown, Frederick connty, Md., that
there has prevailed there for the last three
or four months, a disease, attended with almost
unprecedented fatality to children. It is treat
ed of by practical writers under angina mem-
branacia, or membraneous sore throat. The
disease makes its commencement by an appa
rently ordinary affection of the throat, but hnal-
lyassume* all the symptoms of croup. If taken
in its early stage, if is easily cured, but once
reaching the windpipe or assuming croup, it is
nearly hopeless.
BF* A species of brain fever has been quite
prevalent through portions of Dutches's county,
N. \\, for some two months post, .which has
proved very fatal. Persons in apparent good
health are taken suddenly deranged, and many
have died after a short illness. The complaint
is beginning to be better understood, and fewer
deaths occur.
Something of a Hurricane.
last,, about 1 o’clock, P. M. the neighborhood
of Milledgeville, was visited with ono of the
most violent storms over witnessed in that
quarter. The building of the Factory Company
was unroofed, some eight or ten chimneys were
blown down, the copper sheathing of the Exec
utive Mansion was blown partly off, likewise
the sheathing of the cell building of the Peni
tentiary ; trees were prostrated and brokonto
pieces, fences all over the place blown down,
and other injuries inflicted too tedious to men
tion.
On Saturday and Sunday the rain fell in tor
rents, swelling the river very much, and ren
dering the creeks impassable.
The storm extended into Jefferson nnd Bald
win counties. In Jefferson county, chimneys and
even houses were blown down. We do not
hear of any lives being lost.

The Climate of Georgia.—Mr. J. T. Doug
lass, of Wallace, Jones Co., Geo. writes(us that
he teceived a few fine red June apples that

Death of a Prince.
Tho correspondent of the New York Com
mercial Advertiser writing from Rio de Janoirc,
under date of Jan. 25th, gives the following
interesting account of the death and funeral
obsequies of the young Prince of Broganza.
Tho writer says
“ The whole Empire has been thrown into
mourning by the death of the infant Prince of
Bragnnza, heir to the throne, and the only son
of the Emperor. He died at Santa Cruz, one
of the country palaces of tho Emperor, during
the absence of both the Emperor and the Em
press, who were in the city at the time. His
death Was quite sudden—one courier arrived
bringing intelligence that he was dangerously
ill, and before the Einperor could get ready to
start foj: Santa Cruz, another brought intelli
gence that the Prince wus dead. It is little
more than eighteen months since he was bap
tized, with all the pomp and splendor royalty
could devise, in tho presence of thousands.
Even then it was fresh in the minds of all that
but a short time before they had followed the
first infant Prince of Braganza to his grave; but
their hopes lived again in the second, who now
sleeps in the royal vaults of Santo Antonio.
The Empeior is deeply affected by this blow,
and it is said, refused food for several days.
The Prince died on the morning of the 10th, &
on the morning of the 11th ho lay in state in tho
apartments of the city palace, where all who
wished were at liberty to take a farewell look
He wus in state dress, & beside him lay a crown.
On Saturday evening, tho 12th inst., the fu
neral took place. A very large procession was
formed, and he was conveyed from thq palace
to the convent of Santo Antonio. The pro
cession was about five miles loner, and proceed
ed from the palace, up Rua Dircitu, then up
Rua d’Ouvidor, then Rua dos Ourives, Rua
d’Ajuda and Rua de Santo Antonio. Along
the sidewalks of the streets, through which
the procession passed, were stationed the na
tional guards. First in the procession came a
small body of caval y, richly dressed and
mounted.
These were followed by several hundred
carriages belonging to nobility and wealthy cit
izens, all of whom were in rich court dresses.
Many of the carriages were very elegant, with
hammer cloths richly embroidered in gold and
bullion, on imperial crimson velvet. Tho foot
men and outriders were also Very richly dress
ed, wearing embroidered coats. Next came
the gentlemen belonging to the palace,on horse
back; thenthe Bishops and Princes of the Church
and after them the remains of the Prince in
the state coach, drawn by eight white hor
ses. Over the coach was thrown a rich cloth
of crimson velvet, inlaid with cross embroider
ed in silver. This completely covered the
coach, so that the coffin was invisible. It was
surrounded by noblemen and servants in livery,
each carrying a verry large candle about six feet
long. At the head of each horse walked a
groom, wearing the Emperor’s livery. Next
came the cavalry, numbering some thousand,
which finished up the procession.
All the foreign Ministers went direct to the
church, nnd were present when the remains ar
rived. When the body wa3 deposited in the
vault it was announced by the firing of a can
non. And thus the infant Prince of Rraganza
went down to the grave to sleep until princes,
potentates and powers shall be called to come
forth o/i on equal footing with the lowly and
humble. The Emperor has two children left,
both daughters.—One of them is very delicate,
and-isatthe present time by no means in good
health.
ter he was dead, a judicial examination n aV i ri
been had on application of his wife toadm ’
ister on his estate and take his property 0 ut ( ,
the hands of his creditors who had seized it n,
an application in insolvency. The fact of |,
death had, therefore, not been proven, and im
possible connexion of John Weeks with t| P
Oronoco letter is thus surmised from the fact
that he left New York about the timenft| B
murder, and is known to' have been at Wash t
ington, Texas, about tins time of tho date of V
that letter.
If this is a fabrication, as we take the whole
affair to be, it has been well managed to bring
these circumstances to light on the eve of t],
trial, when it will be impossible to investigate
theiT trtitll, should they bo deemed by the jniv
to have any bearing on the case.
Botany Bay Emigrants to California.-
Among the recent arrivals at San Franciico

A letter writer says—Occasionally these valui-

are rewarded by the authorities of 8an Fran
cisco with a ball and chain, and the privilege of
working on the streets.-

The New York Journal of Commerce
states that tho Manhattan Gas Company of that
City, have secured the services of men tho best
qualified in point of scientific attainment,
examine and report upon the various discover
ies announced, of improved facilities for gen
erating gas, with a view to such reduction i
the price of the article as the ndoption of such
facilities may warrant.
Will not those gentlemen who have the man
agement of our own gas work, now in proems
of erection, avail themselves of the information
to bo discovered from theae investigations.—
Many new discoveries have of late been made
in the generation of gas, some of which arc al
ready superceding the old method, ns they are
said to produce not only a superior, but a much
cheaper article.
Digging Gold..—Charles Patridgc, lately of
Ellicott’s Mills, Md., writes from Stockton, to
his father, that himself and another had averag

There was much sickness and many deaths, and
he says he would as soon Work in Maryland for

had made.
