MBS. 0W18BBELM HtlOOESTfi ▲ NEW STYLE OF FEMALE DKKHK. [From the Woman's Journal. 1 Editor* Woman* Journal: Your cor respondents are having trouble about a name for a new garment. For two years, except in hot weather, when I „ wantod oh little covering ah possible on shoulders or Anna, I have worn ilia article tboy wish to designate. Liko old King Georgo with the apple in tho dumpling, every one who has aeon it has asked, “How do you get in ?” The frequency of the question named it for rue, and I call it a “gotiu. 1 do get into it without difficulty, and, once in, am oovered from tho wrists to tho nock and ankles, and have no uiolass drapery. Then, with a drilling waist, cut aomewhat like corsets and furnished with broad straps, resting just whop a man's suspenders rest, and divided in front, as they are, a bit of tape on each aide at the lower edge, to which I attach robber stocking suspenders, which tie with tapes to loops on the stockings, 1 am ready for skirts, which 1 pin to tho waist, preferring pins to buttons. Thus all my clothes rest just whore men have theirs supported, i. e. t on the shoulders above tho joint, leaviug this free. With skirts that never come bolow the instep, ami are not unnecessarily wide or heavy, this dress is as nearly healthful as the laws of society will per mit. As for tho undergarment, if othor folks are going to adopt it, it should have a name by which it can be generally known. Any one is weloome to my name, and I Am willing to adopt another, but uot “chemiloou.” The word is ouo of the ugliest I have ever seen. It is too long, and the ending is anggostive of horrible sounds beard near louoly lakes. I have lain at midnight in a lonely cabiu, listen ing to tho booting of loons and owls, tho bellowing of boars and howling of wolves, all mingled in hideous chorus, and I ob ject to the introduction of anothor loon into the language. If wo want to keep near our old naiue, why not call the thing a chem ? This would bo a distinctive Ap pellation, but if a longer word is wanted add some short syllable, for instance, “Cheiulin.” Iam, Jane G. Swissbelm. The Gbant-Honoke Wedding. — The long illusion vail of the bride was caught gracefully on the left side of her head by a cluster of orange blossoms, with trailing vine falling gracefully down the length of the vail to the bottom of the train. The bridal dress was of rich cronm satin, tho front widths entirely plain, with a pleat ing one-half yard iu depth on the train. Above this was a rich castellated trim ming, which gave tho upper part of tho skirt the effect of being a separate and falling over flounce. Tho corsage was made high, with tiny basque waist, a Ma rio Antoinette sloove drooping just be low the elbow. Over the wholo was a rich lace over-dresH, composed of Dnchoss point, manufactured in RruRsela expressly for tho bride. Tho lace over-waist formed A jaunty jacket of tho “Point Duchess, with a V nook nml cut-away front, leaving the satin vost just visible underneath. The overskirt was of oxquisite texturo and voluminous proportions, and gracefully draped at the left side aud fastened with orange blossoms. A mouchoir of tiro finest design, in exquisite pearls, and a necklaoe to match, completed this rich marriage oostumo. is very popular dowu here, as I find all her works are, and the Indy lioreeP, from her exclusiveness, is looked upon as some thing better than the common sort. Haw la Vet a Wife. A California oorrespoudeut of the Now York Timm shows bow John Chinaman manages tho matrimonial lottery. Here it is: A Chinaman in want of a wife acrapes together his wages and sends the nmonnt home, generally to bis father or mother, with tho order for a wifo, and they g<> into the market and make the bent bar gain they can, according to the money to bo invented. Sometimes the amount u small, and a really tlr»t-eh**N aiticlo can not be had for the sum, but tho old wo- man generally does her best and ships over tho woman consigned to her son, who meets her at the steamer with his bill »f lading, pays freight and charges, and takos his property. * * * If any of your readers want to know the price of the real useful wife of this sort, of reliable color, warranted to wash, (Mondays) I can inform them, as my Ce lestial, Ah Ham, who dusts out my office, has recently imported one. Hain sent money’ to his mother, aud in duo course of tiiuo the purchase arrived, and K»m brought her down for my inspection. She was as ngly a Chinese woman as 1 oversaw. 1 said, “Bam, not handsome, eh?’’ Ham says, “Not handsome much ; handsome gal cost heap money, and all time kick tip—bobbery.” Sam had the correct idea of it, and was widely content with a plain article, that was most likely to stay with him. Ham informed me that the original cost, with freight and charges, was $500—all it was worth, if I am judge* of that species of goods, gained from a mild experience. IIOIHKMTIC RECIPE*. Pol I ten cbm Katrnordlnnrj. When the “To Deuin" for the victory was celebrated, Thiers and MaoMahou both attended the solemn ceremony in the church at Versailles. Two arm-chairs had been placed near tho high altar, one for Madame, tho wifo of tho Marshal, the other for M’mo Thiers, wife of tho Presi dent of the Republic. M’me MacMuhou, born Duchess of Costree, understood her position, and knowing that the right was the place of honor, modestly seated her self on the left. While the Duchess was still kneeling. M’me Thiers arrived. “Dear madame, your chair is on the other side!” “You are too good, madame ! Really, I cannot consent.” “Take it, I beg !” “Since you desire it ; but really yon embarrass wo ! Aud M nie MncMuhon rose from her knows and betook herself to the right aud continued her prayers,while M’me President Thiers knelt ostentatious ly at the left. Tho ceremony over, M’ine MacMahon expressed her acknowledge ments for the courtesoy of M ine Thiers. “You have nothing to thank me for,” the Utter replied. “You did uot know, of course, that when 1 came iu you were occupying wy place’." . “Your place ! On the loft, M mo Presi- deute ? ” “Certainly, M’meMarsBI. The Queens of France always placed themselves «t tho left of the altar, it wus tho only place, indeed, where the Queen did not seat her self on tho right: it is in order that tho Queen might be first under tho hand of the Bishop os he turns to give the beue- ^’I’he’grstitudo of M’me MacMahon, horn s Costree, for this lesson inroyal eti.juelto which the daughter of M. Dosuo had con descended to give her maybe imagined. [ Utiural Reclus, in the tlaltuyfor OH. Plum Pudding —Two eggs, «; craokei ;» pints of sweet milk, a piece of butter tho size of an egg, 1 cup of raisins, a lit tle salt and nutmeg. Hakki* Indian Pudding.—Four c<gg «, 1 quart of sweet milk, f> largo toaapoousful of Indian meal; nutmeg and sugar to the taste. Roil the milk and scald the Indian meal iu it, then let it cool before adding the eggs. Ruko three-quarters of an hour. Eot with butter or sweet sauce. ArrLE Tartlets- —Peel (J largo apples, boil to u pulp, mix with sugar, cloves and lemon-peel to taste; lei this mixture stand till quito cold, then mix with it 2 ounces of dried currants. Make a light puli' paste, obtain a largo flat baking-tin, and pour lira mixture in, cover it with tin* p stry, and hukn half au hour in very hot oven. Velvet Cake. —One quart of new, un skimmed milk (half ortuiu and half niilli is preferable), 4 eggs (white and yolk* beaten separately, and very stiff), 1 teas poonful salt, rice Hour. Mix the beaten yelks with the milk, add the salt, then riuo flour to make a batter thick as that for flannel cakes; lastly, whip in the stiff ened whites very lightly, and bake imme diately. To Stew Cold Corned Reef.-—Cut about four pounds of lean froui a cold round of beef, that (antes but little of salt. Lay it iu a stew-pan, with a quarter of a peck of tomatoes quartered, nnd the same quantity of ochre sliced ; also, two small onions peeled und sliced, aud two ounces of fresh butter rollod in flour.

Tho vegetables should he eutirely dissolved. Serve it up hot. EriouiiF.AN Coffee.—There is such a thing as science even iu coffee making, und tho Preucb understand it butter, per haps, than any other people iu the world. They cun combine different coffees, like the parts of a tiuo wine, to produce cer tain rare bouquets, or aromas, for the epicure. Not more than half a pound of coffee should be roasted at a time for do mestic use ; it should be ground only just before going iuto the pot ; au ounce should bo allowed for every three cups *, iu its mixture with tho white of egg to clear it thoro should ho some warmth be fore tho water is added, aud it should never bo allowed to roach a boil. Ob serve those rules which uro based upon scientific reasons, aud you may make from nn inferior coffeo-lioan a beverage far superior to what generally goes by that name. It will never ho black nor bittor, and can bo kept indefinitely with out staling. Fou Furniture.—Make a mixture of three parts linseed oil, and oue part spir its of turpentine. It not only covers the disfigured surface, but restores furniture to its original color, and leaves a lustre upon the surface. Put on with a woolen cloth, aud rub with woolen. How to Roil Eggs.—Put the required number of eggs into a saucepan, con tainiug boiliug water sufficient to cover them, and put it in a place on the range where it will keep boiling hot, but not boil. Let them stand seven luiiiutoK. When takeu up they will bo fouud thickly nnd deliciously jollied throughout, and perfectly digestible. It is a much better and more cortain way than boiling them. Another method is, to let them boil gently for thirty minutes. This is un excellent plan for persons who like bard boiled eggs, or for invalids, ns eggs cooked for this length of time cun lie easily digested by tho most delicate stomachs. 1 lie lllblo. Who composed the following descrip tion of the Rihlo w« may never know. It found in Westminster Abbey, name less and dateless, but nevertheless it is invaluable for its wise and wholesome counsel to the race of Adam : A nation would be truly happy if it sro governed by no other laws than those of this blessed book. It contains everything needful to be known or done. It gives instruction to a Senate, au thority nnd directions to n magistrate. It cautions a witness, requires an im partial verdict to a jury, and furnishes tho judge with his sentence. It sets the husband as the lord of his household, nnd the wifo as tuislrcus of the table—tolls him how to rule, nnd her how to manage. It entails honor to parents and enjoins obedience to children. It prescribes and limits the sway of the sovereign, the rule of the ruler and the authority of the inaHfer; commands the subjects to honor and the servant to obey, and tho blessings and tho protection of the Almighty to all that walk by this rule. It gives directions for weddings and burials. it,, remises food nnd raiment, and lim its tho use of both. It points out a faithful and eternal guardian to the departing husband and father; tolls him with whom to have his fatherless children, nnd whom his widow is to trust—and promises a father to the former, and a huslmnd to tho latter. It teaches a man to sot his house in or der, and how to make his will ; it up points u dowry for his wife, and entails the rights of the first born, and shows how ttio young branches shall tie loft. It defends tho light of all, and reveals vengeance to every defaulter, ovor- roacher and trespasser. It is tho tlrst book, the host book. It contains thu choicest luuttqr— gives the best instruction affords tho greatest degree of pleasure and satisfaction that wo havo ever enjoyed It coutaius the host laws nnd most pro found mysteries that were ever penued; and it brings the very best of comforts to the inquiring and disconsolate. It exhibits life and immortality from time everlasting and shows tho way to it is a brief recital of nil that is to come, it settles all mutters in debate; re solves aud doubts; un I oases tho mind and conscience of nil their scruples. It reveals tho only living and true God, and hIiowh the way to Him, and sots aside nil other gods, and describes tho vanity of Ihom and all that trust in such ; in short it is u book of laws to show right and wrong; of wisdom that condemns a folly and tuaks the foolish wist ; a book of truth that detects all lies nnd confronts all errors ; aud it is a book of life that shows the way from everlasting death. itcoiitnins tho most ancient antiquities aud struiigo events, wonderful occur rences, heroic deeds, unparalleled wars. It describes tho celestial, terrestrial and internal worlds, and the origin of tho an gelic myriads, the human tribes and the devilish legions. It will instruct tho accomplished mo- chauic and most profound critic. It touches the best rhctoricuii. nnd ex orcises every power to tho most skillful arithmetician, puzzles the wisest nnatu- miat, and oxerciw.s tho wisest, critic. It is thu best covenant tlmt ever was agreed on ; tho bust deed that ever was sealed; tho best that, will over ho signed. To understand it is to bo wire indued : to be ignorant of of it is to bo destitute of true wisdom. It is tho king’s host copy, tho magis trate's best rule, the housekeeper's best guide, the aorvant's best directory and the young mnn's bust companion ; it is the schoolboy's spelling hook and tho grant aud lonrncd man's masterpiece. It contains a choice grammar for a novice and a profound mystery for a Rage. It is the ignorant man’s dictionary und tho wise mail's dictionary. It affords knowledge of witty inven tions for tho humorous, and dark sayings for tho grave, and is its awn interpreter. It encourages the wise; the warrior and the swift it overcomes; it promises un eternal reward to the excellent, tho con queror, the winner and tho prevalent. Aud that which crowns all is that tho Author is without partiality and without hypocrisy. “In whom there is no variableness or shadow of turning.” CLOTHING.

Wilson now, and lives in a beautiful little chateau in the suburbs. Her husbaud is a banker of wealth and influence, and she a plain, unassuming lady, about thirty- five years old, 1 should think. From her appearance, one would imagine that she had wrestled with Confucius, the Sanscrit philosophers, and the ancieut Greeks. I meant to have asked her how she comes to know bo much as she does about thing** of which everybody else is ignorant; but I couldn’t—I was afraid it would be nu- pudent. Imagine a tall, slender lady, of dark complexion, black hair, and eyes of au indifferent color, features plain, but full of animation and intelligence, and manners that are at once unobtrusive and attractive, and you have this De8tael of the South. She is seen but little in soci ety, and seldom entertains any but inti mate friends; but the poor know her well, and the honpitalH and institutions for the homeleuH and friendless find in her a local Florenoe Nightengale. During the war she was very active in the Southern hos pital^ and, it is aaid, gave the larger por tion of the proflU of her novel, “llacarie," which was pubiittbed iu 1H03, for the ben efit of the oick aud wouuded eoldiera. Au Aerlnl The New York Sun Hays: Monsieur E. Caillou, of this city, has entered a caveat in tho Patent Office for the aerial velocipede. Tho model, which in about liftoen feet in leugth, ho keepa in a back room iu his Uoukc. There are two small balloons of equal Hize to balance the weight of tho aero naut, leaving him free to change Iiih posi tion iu atjy direction by menus of ma chinery. 'Jhose two balloons are cou rt nod by framework instead of network and cording. M. Oaiilou says Hint the confining of the gas in a framework will kiep the velooipede more steady than net ting. The seat is between and below tho two balloons and behind the main shaft of the maoliinory, which cau be rotated by either tho hands or the feet of the operator, n treadle and a crank being both provided, while a small driving wheel to the right enables him to reverse the motion easily. The entire hull of the aerial vo-sol i« a light framework,which preserves the relative position of the op erator aud tho two halloous unchanged. Doing, thus seated in a coutrivauco which when loaded has hardly auy greater spe cific gravity than the air, the velocipedist propels himself in auy direction by meane of three wheols of canvass stretched over a light framework, aud fashioned similar ly to tho screw of a propeller. The wheels are to work in connection with a rudder which is at tho front of the whole tuachiue. The rudder consists of two parts, oue of which is perpeudietdar, und is worked laterally, guulmg to the right or left, and the other is horizoutsl, aud guide** up or down. Both are governed by cords. Ouo of the three screw wheels is above the head of the velocipedist, and the two others at his right and left hands. They are work ini together by means of a cog-wheel connecting tho two shafts, aud one motion ia to seud the velocipede forward aud upward, while the reverse sends it downward aud back ward. The second and third points covered by M. Oalllon’s caveat are the upper wheel*, which raises the velocipede, nnd the double rudder in the fron*. The side wheels are similar to M. Caillon's machine exhibited in the Paris Exposition of 184*7, for which the Emperor Nupoleou ia saitl to have giv en 30,000 francs. —A fellow at Des Moines, Is., appa rently very drunk, staggered against a plate-glass ahow window and amaahad it, and then hurried off. The shopman and his darks followed and aaized him, took a $100 bill from his pocket, and, after deducting the prioe of the glasa, stuffed the change in his wallet and aet him adrift. The $100 proved to be counter feit, and the shopman, horrified, set the polio® on the fellow’a track, aud waa sr- re«Ud, but no crime could ha proved, The novel is a story of Southern Ufa, and 1 and the adroit rogue got off aoot free. Jacob's Well. Dr. Harvey, in n lottor from Kumnria, thus describe** Jacob's Well: 1'aNsing the ancient. Labniiuh and Oonea, both still important towns, wo entered the broad, rich plain III Mukna, covered with immense fields of grain, and at noon of tho second day from Jerusalem reached Jacob's Well. Here, rich and well- watered, is “the parcel of ground which Jacob bought of the sons of Humor, iht father of Shoehorn,” and which tho patri arch when dying bequeathed to Joseph A splendid church was built over the well in the fourth century, which tho Moslems afterward destroyed. Its ruins rcinnin, but tho debris lots fallen on tho arch above. Through this a hole has boon dug to tho mouth, now six or eight foot below tho snrfaco. The well is deep, at prssuut measuring sovcnly-fivo feet, but ongiuully much more. It is circular, nine fact in diameter, aud said to be cut its wholo distance through solid rook. When we were there it contained no water. The curb is gone, it is evidently fast filling up with falling atoms nnd earth, nnd the place looks forbidding and forsaken. Yet on this spot there is littlo doubt tli u the patriarch dwtIt, and through all the ages of Israel's history descendants drank of the well he gave tiuJi ; and here our Lord set nt mid-day and uttered bis over- ttuuiiorahlo words, respecting the Water of Life to the woman of Samaria. The general scone remaiua tho same iu the richness and beauty of its surroundings, but tho dilapidated condition of the well makes it difficult to picture Jesus sitting on its curb. Of all the snored pine there was none 1 more dcsirod to see re stored and preserved than this badly nog- looted one. The Millennium. W* are uskod our opinion of the Mil lennium. Wo have given that so often— and sometimes so much at large—in the. Advocate, tlmt we can only now just state that tho word millennium means a thou sand years. The phrase a thousand years is used in four places of Scripture (viz. Pa. xc. -t; Eool. vi. t»: 2 Pot. iii. 8 ; Hev xx. 2-7) for a long, indeliuito period. In Kev. xx. it designates that happy period which shall precede the second coming of Christ to raise tho dead, burn tho earth, and judge the world. That period will differ from the present only in this, that Christianity will he spread nil over the earth, nnd men will be gouorally brought under its saving influence. They will be boru in sin as they are now—they repent und believe the gospel—experi ence justification, regeneration, and sanctificution, by the Holy Spirit, as they do now—they will have nlfliotion, though perhaps not as severe us now—they wil die and go to heaven us they do now. li will he the kiugdotu of grace on earth and not the kingdom of glory in heaven. No corporeal Messiah will come down from hosveu to reigu upon the earth—no martyrs or any other saints will be raised up from their graves to reigu with him at Jerusalem or auy where else. These are day-dreams of visiouary fanatics.—('hri*. tian Advocate. —A gentleman was describing to Doug las Jerrold the story of his courtship nnd marriago—how his wife bad been hr*night up in a oonvent au*l was on the point of taking the veil when bis presence burst upon her enraptured sight, nud she ac cepted him as her husband.
