[From the Journal of Commerce.] The Fashions. Paris, Dec. 13. —The Parisian celebrities among .r'i ' v are exercising all their taste and inge • in preparation for the brilliant season, which .-.ifcommence with the New Year’s reception at : Tuiieries. In the dress department 1 may men u some new creation* of Madame Faucet :4 Hue Mnars , whose perfect taste is an authority, r full toilette there are robes of cut velvet, the mnd of which is composed of taffetas, and made three flounces ; on the edge of each flounce is a ,d wreath of flowers and leaves of black velvet; s wreath, the delicacy of which is incomparable, .. more the effect of painting than of application, .wive narrow rows of the same trimming, with pattern on it smaller scale, form an elegant rmisli to the body, and complete the ensemble of robe. The dresses are worn at either large or . all evening parties; they are seen in all colors— _--- u and black, hull’ and black, and pink and jh -k ; the latter is the prettiest—the pink throw ing the black velvet wreaths into such bold belief. The materials for robes, most in vogue, are striped nni plain tnoir- antique; silks with patterned flounces, either in stripes or flowers; a number of limeades, dres-cs with flounces bordered bv bands .< i Iwt and fringes woven in the stuff. Silk | —j having flounces embroidered in colored un t.listed silk are very magnificent. For out door .stiime, Mila me Fitted, makes all corsages high am! wiili very long lappets ; they are ornamented .viih braids, buttons and fringes. Tite front of the dy, the sleeves and lappets, are often decorated v.itl’i a great quantity of pendant buttons, which • (hi a very pretty effect. For the evening, silk skirts are trimmed with tulle and crape flounces. The bodies are draped, from a point in front and behind. An invention lias lately been described by a live- French writer, which converts a crenoline petti di into a balloon ; the garment can be swelled •it or reduced to its natural volume according to i- will of the wearer. A small ingenious brass ■ •■■aoutehouc machine is attached to the petticoat; is little piece of mechanism is furnished with a -euspipe and piston. If you wish to be seated in ,l carriage or a box at the theatre, you open the si nspipe and the air risperses, leaving your di lensious such t>« will enable you to occupy a m.idcrate space. But if von intend to display vour iette on the Champs-ftlysees, or to enter it "ball Min where hoops and trains reign triumphant, you press the piston, the air tills the tissue and the rmioline swells out majestically. I hope soon to b>- able to tell your readers when these valuable articles can be procured : with the present stvle of -.!: ss, it is nearly impossible for two ladies, in full toilette, to occupy the same carriage. For ibis winter, the style of outer garments will be paletots, talmas, and large cloaks. The trim lings most used are galloons, passementeries, Venice point, guipure laid on flat, and applications i stamped velvet. The Kistori cloak la novelty which we owe to the taste of Madame Petet, 4 - Vrndotn- . is composed of swan’s down cloth, trimmed with buttons and twist fringe; the upper part- is close around the neck, tittiug tight j the shoulders and back, and consists of a pele .iie cu: in live points, forming a Vandyke on the back. The bottom of the mantle is cut across the -t-ffl’in Vandykes, turned the opposite wav, so as :-t close in between the Vandykes of the pelerine, thus making the skirt of the coat very full. On the scums of the Vandyke, and at the edges are sewed small buttons; a; the corner of each vandvke hangs a long flowing tassel; a deep fringe at the bottom finishes the mantle. AVhen the talma is made of velvet, it is trimmed with lace, guipure, and deep rich fringes mixed with jet. In cloth, for neglige, it is generally bordered by a velvet band, four inches wide. [ have lately seen magnificent lace tunics of point <ie Bruxelles, point d’Angleterre and Alen eous, at the celebrated lace manufactory of Icemen d: Co., No. 1-5 Bout. ,;u d Mont-mat re, intended to be worn over colored satins for ball dresses ; the tu nic reaches to the knee, below which there is a flounce of the same lace, or a trimming of bouil lonnes and ribbons. The corsages of these robes are covered with lace, either as a berthe, or as braces. The passion for extravagant jewelry in creases, as the season approaches for displaying parures. Ball dresses are covered with precious stones. Those with two skirts of different colors, such as we see painted in the beautiful portrait of Marie Antoinette, have the first jitpe, or tunic, caught up iu festoons with agraffes of precious stones. The jewelry establishment. An Negre, ly Boulevard St. Denis, displays sets of ornaments in diamonds, pearls and opals, destined to decorate robes with silk or lace tunics. The Secigne for the corsage, and the coiffure, and likewise composed of diamonds, pearls and opals. The majority of caps and coiffures for evening parties are made to come forward on the forehead in a rounded point, hke the Marie Stuart bonnets. They are trimmed with floods of blonde, with which are blended flowers, foliage, and fruit ; they are frequently j composed of gold blonde and tips of feathers and marabouts. The caps are generally in the function -•vie, or else simply a round of blonde or lace, with ribbons or flowers. The fashion for gentlemen’s clothes undergoes but little change, whatever may be the diversity in female attire ; the darkest colors and the plainest make are the most recherche*. For evening visits, the coat and pantaloons are black; the white waistcoat and a cravat, forming an indispensable part of this costume. The sleeves of all coats, either for the street or the salons, are w-Tn enormously wide. The establishment of j Mr throe, 22 Boulevard Montmatre, is much resort ed to, as furnishing the height of French fashion for all who are in search of the last novelty in gen tlemen’s dress. llamas of blue and gold, purple and gold, scar- j let and gold, produce a brilliant effect as hanging i for drawing rooms. There is superb furniture made j in the Atelier* of Cunt- d- Co., 5 Hue d* Charonne, \ of the /’-drier, the wood of the pear tree. The Mi le Louis XV. continues to be preferred by those | who esteem lightness and grace in forms more than elaborate ornaments. The buffets for dining rooms in fn.ird r and marble, are fine specimens of this new , style of furniture, and replace happilv the heavy and elaborate oak furniture which has been so much in favor for the last few years. A Diskvi M\x\ George Lippard in his new work called 7 A r.trene, thus speaks of Presi dent Jackson: “H * was a man Well 1 remember the day I waited upon him. 1!.- sat there in his arm chair l ean see that old warrior face, with its snow white hair even now. \\ e told him of the public distress—the manufacturers rained—the eagle shrouded in crape, which were borne at the head of twent v thousand men into Independence Square. He heard us all. We begged him to leave the de posits where they were, to uphold the great bank m Philadelphia. Still he did not say a word. At last one of our members more tirery than the rest, intimated that if the bank was crushed, a rebellion might follow. Then the old man rose. 1 can see him yet. “ • Come!’ lie shouted in a voice of thunder, as his clenched hand was raised above his white hairs; • Come with bayonets in your hands instead of petitions - surround ihe White House with vour legions -1 am ready for you all! With the peo ple at mv back, whom your gold can neither buy u->r awe, I will swing you up around the Capitol toll one of you on a gibbet as high as Ha man’s !’ " When l think,’ says the author, ‘of that one titan standing here at Washington, battling with all the powers of bank and panic combined, be tray.,-.! uy thus ■ in whom he trusted, assailed by a!! that the snake of malice could hiss or the fiend i falsehood howl- -when I think of that one man placing his ha -k . gainst the rock and folding his arms for the blow, while he uttered his vow, ‘ 1 will not swerve one incli from the course I have taken,’ I must confess that the records of Rome —nay, the proudestldays of Cromwell or Napoleon —cannot furnish an instance of a will like that oi Andrew Jackson when he placed life and fame oil the hazard of a die for the people’s welfare.” Providence Sentinel. .Bran of Ft.

The latter said it cost as much to keep a hogshead of brandy as it did a cow. “Maybe he drink as much water,’’ replied the Indian, “ but he no eat so much hay.” The statistics of the New York city prison show that during the eleven months ending November 30th, the total number of commitments for intoxi cation was twelve thousand four hundred and eighteen, of which five thousand eight huudred and twenty-eight were made under the prohibitory act, and six thousand five hundred under the old law. There are now laid up in winter quarters at Chi cago two hundred and eighteen steamers and sail craft, representing carrying room for sixty thou sand tons.

The Commissioner of the General Land Office has decided that no act of the Territorial Legisla ture of Kansas can in anv way effect the disposal of (lie public lands, that being a matter over which Congress has exclusive control; and that the laws of Congress in regard to pre-emption and sale must exclusively govern the Department in its manage ment of the public domain. It has become necessary to place an iron fence around the alcoves of the Congress Library at Washington, in consequence of the constant en croachments of the multitude who throng the Cap itol during the session of Congress. Many valuable works have been stolen from the and oth ers are ruined by constant handling. During the late epidemic in Norforlk, Dr. Reed, one of the volunteer physicians from Savannah, Georgia, was surprised to meet in the street a ser vant woman whom he had left at home. When being questioned as to what brought her there, she replied she had come to nurse him if he should be attacked. At Vienna (Austria,’) every person who frequents tiie Exchange is obliged to take a ticket, for which i he pays a trifling sum ; and on the Ist of the month notice was given to the police authorities that in future every ticket would, in addition to the name and address, have the religion of its possessor in scribed ntt it. The new regulation has excited ex treme indignation among the Hebrew frequenters of the Exchange, and it will probably be felt when their assistance is again required by the State. The rains throughout the south, for some weeks, have been unprecedented. In Columbia on Wed nesday, the river was rising rapidly, and the Wa teree, at Camden, had risen yesterday to the top of the banks, and was increasing so fast that great fears were entertained of a freshet. A despatch from Montgomery, Ala., dated Ist inst., says : “ W e have had an almost continuous rain in this I country for three consecutive weeks past. “ The mails for the past five days from New Orleans and Mobile, are now due. In all direc tions the railroads are submerged, and bridges have been carried away. The whole country is inundated, and nearly all intercommunication is suspended. Such a flood has not- occurred before since the days of Noah, and the damage will be al most bevond computation.” The Mobile, Ala., Advertiser, of the 20th ult., also, savs: " From memoranda attached to the manifest of the steamer Octavia, arrived yesterday from Tus caloosa, which place she left on the 25th, we learn that it was snowing and sleeting in those latitudes, snow having already fallen to the depth of eight j inches.

The frequent and almost ceaseless showers that have prevailed, and, for several weeks preceding, have well nigh stopped transactions in some articles, and have seriously interfered with all. In such as were liable to direct injury, by ex posure, little or nothing has been done, while as to others, the continued inclemency of the weather has retarded or prevented the attentions and exertions ; necessary to transactions. Vessels have been lying i at our wharves awaiting such a condition of weath er as would permit their discharging; and all de- : partments ot carriage and transfer of merchandize | may be said to have been suspended. Cotton.-f The present week opened with a mod- j erately fair demand, aud for several days the quo- \ tations given in our report of the 28th ultimo were i well maintained; prices, however, subsequently ! became depressed, and the more recent transac- J tions show a languid and drooping market, which ! was particularly the ease on the Middling grades, j which may be quoted about under the extreme ! prices of the previous week. The receipts since i our last reach 8600 bales, and the sales in the same i time may be put down at 8100 bales, 652 bales of which were sold yesterday. We quote Ordinary to Good Ordinary f Low to Strict. Middling 8%@9; Good Middling ; Middling Fair 9%0i.9L;, and Fair 9%.

Corn. —The receipts by railroad comprise 14,- | 000 bushels, a small portion of which has been ; sold at prices ranging from SO to Site. bushel, including sacks. About 1600 bushels North 1 Carolina, held over from tlu previous week, ! brought 88c., and 2500 bushels received since our ! last, sold at 83. jk bushel. Oats. —The last sale was at 4.5 c. y bushel. ! Peas. —The receipts this week, by Railroad, foot ; j up 1,500 sacks, the bulk of which has been sold at \ i prices within the range of 90 @ 95c., principally at - ! the latter price. Flour. —The receipts, by Railroad, since our last, ! J foot up nearly 1,600 barrels, which have reached a : market previously more than abundantly supplied, j Bacon and Lard. —The supply is gradually' in creasing, but there is no present demand for either article, and prices are also nominal. Sugars. —-There is a fair supply of Louisiana on the market, but the inclement state of the weather throughout the week has materially interfered with transactions.
