From the Wasliingtorr Sunday Chronicle } How to win friends amt keep them is fhc secret of a successful public man. Andre# Jackson possessed it without absultltely courting tho people. His integrity, gen* crone mttme, high honor, milbary ebaratj tet and history, were chief elements of bis prestige, Henry Olay possessed and knew how to use if. His charms were uhfivalK ed eloqutMi'ce, supreme ambition, innate pa triotism, commanding presence, and mag netism of men and women. JvJm Quincy Adams, Martin Van Baron and James Bn* chanuti were cold and formal men, who in* spired admiration by their talents, but never awakened real affection. Abraham Lincoln captured everybody by seeming to lie indifferent to the very qualities in which he was eminent* His simplicity and natu ralness, so .to speak, were resistless. But no character, certainly no candidate for our highest office, was a completer master of thd gift of securing tenacious friends than Stephen A. Douglas. He had scarce ly touched the floor of Congress before he became an object of interest- His extreme youdh|hts boyish appearance, k ' 3 reai b’ wit, his fine memory, Ins native rhetoiic, above all, his suavity and heaitiness, made him a favo.ite Icmg before he was named for President. He delighted in pleasant company* Unused to what is called etiquette, he soon adapted himself to its rules, and took rank iu the dazzhng so* ciety of the capital. Many a time have I watched him leading in tue keen encoun ters of the bright entellects around the fes* tive board, so see him threading the glit tering crowd with a pleasant smile or a kind word so« everbody, one would have taken him for a trained courtier. But he was more at home in the close aud ex< i ting thicket of nmn. That was his ele ment. To call each one by name, some* times by bis Christian name ; to stand in iu the center of a listening throng* while he told some Western story or defended public measure ; to exchange jbkes with * political adversaiy ; or, ascending the rostrum, to bold thousands spellbouud for hours, as he poured fourth torrents of characteristic eloquence-these were traits that raised up for him hosts who were ready to fight for him. Eminent .men did not hesitate V> take their stand under the Douglas flag. R«P«r ® c, ‘ olars than him self, ojder if not better statesmen, frankly acknowledged his leadership, and faithful ly followed his fortunes; 0 J"ouLir2ii.ciX to "title InnToiresTs of G 4 oodrgricX.

It must be remembered that it should always be made straight, never bias, and stitched on about an inch or two, accor ding to its widih from the top and bottom edge, which must be hemmed properly ; not mof.e|y down to r save present tude* f Uut making a tverd ofj 'texationsak ter trouble. Mixed j“wels are to be avoided. Vari ety is the spice of life so far as expression of face, intonation of voice, and general conversation goes ; but variety in colors, of dress ornamentation and jewelry j is aims ply barbarous. But taste in dress is now as carefully cultivated as music and dan** cing ; therefore, the eyes will no mere in the hereafter be offended by glaring incon-s grnities. All gilded and tawdry orna* merits, tassels, brass crescent#, gilt loco motives and steamboats, huge bright ear rings, lockets like cheese plate.?, and gilt chains, are .on . the decline. Above all things jewelry should be worn in sets. . A beautiful accompaniment to the white dresses so popular is the shell jewelry, which copies in entire sets, and is much lighter and more delicate for summer than Lm of uzLuih b« hajee had a cii.gn.if jju shell sotß comprise also a fin.

Very handsome parasols are imported, with tortoise shell handles, upon which the monogram can be cut. There, is a change m the coiffure, the Grecian twist taking the place of the chat* elahie braids. This is certainly cooler and more graceful, but qpore troublesome to ar* range classically. Hair importers are in ecstacies, as ibis effange involves greater expenditures in hair. One fashionable las dy.has already ordered two switches, each to cost s46—one to coil in the twist, the other to pass-in a braided coronal, afound the head. &>ft fill wool delaius are a's” revhMiig, and are largely imported.

It is ra* ther. like a riding hat, high crown of black English straw, tolling narroiy brim ; trim ming in black velvet, grosgrain ribbon and ostrich tips upon one side, beneath which a loop of velvet holds the ends of a long vail of black dotted lace, used as a scarf for ornament or vail at pleasure. A long ostriqh plume is also worn with this style of hat. The Mies' Oxford ties are more and more popular- With these, black silk stockings are worn, by those who cannot vet become reconciled to the display of white. But the unbleached Lisle thread or fine wbife silk are much nicer in all ways, and m fact afe altogether worn by women sf refinement, wild' naturally disflke any -1 thing colored in the way of underclothing Cravats in white lace aad white laWn are very fashionable. Cooler in effect than ribbon, they possess a very dainty ap they may be modified by a knot of tosy or any bright lined ribbon placed beneath* Cashmere of delicate gray, as as black, braided or trimmed with lace, is preferred for a wisp at the fashionable re*ort3 to jackets or shawls. They are made in sty-, lish polonaise. Another old fashion is gradually reviving—that of black lace mitts. They are now exhibited, but few have been as yet seen. Great labor is saved in embroidery of handkerchiefs, as exquisitely worked letters are imported to be transferred to the cor-; ners in single large initials* These beau tiful letters are also done iu point lace aud fiud bonitoo for mete delicate articles* - • The State debt of Vermont is now $412,- 000.

There is a deep stgniAcauce attached to this - incident. Less than a quarter of a ceutfffy ago the crowned heads of Europe would have'noticed Louis Napoleon only to order him to leave their dominions. They regarded him as a pen niless and characterless adventurer, and treated him accordingly. Tears rolled ott, and Napoleon became President, Emperor, and tho greatest ruler France has had in one hundred and fifty years, with tho ex" .ception of tile First Napoleon. He was ao adventurer. He usurped his p6Wer. He played the tyrant from the very outset, But his greatness was undeniable and his success baffled all calculation. Royalty recognized his power and bowed before it. The proudest houses of Europe were 1 com pelled, to acknowledge that lhig> plebian usurper was at least their equal, and they at once accepted the situation with the b2st grace imaginable. * But Napoleon's career wss not destined to be one of unbroken sucoess. The fatal uffqir at Sedan left him a captive Emperor, Without a crown* without an Empire, and almost without a follower/ Aud now we ■ come to the strangest part of this remark* ible man's history : Louis Napoleon, the exile, retams tho friendship of the l£ings and princes*who regarded him with so much hatred and distrust at site Hide of the coup d'etat. The royal family of England visit him constantly, and from every quar ter he receives assurances *f respsef, iyms these facts the recent fetFTrtflfftuflUlWli-W --invested with additional importance. The Emperor takes everything that has occurred since the fall of the Empire with the most serene composure. Ho visits a good deal, give* elegant receptions, and goe* on pleasure .excunoons nearly every other day. Tlie people in the neighborhood of Chiseliiurat all feel kindly disposed to ward the exile, and the celebrities of Eng land are thronging hia house all the time. Colonel Blanton Duncan, an American gen* tlem»n, who has recently returned from Europe, gives a very interesting account of oue of bis conversations with Napoleon at Chiselhurst. He regards the ie-estab ffshcißtit of the Empire as a fixod fact, and says that Leon Gambet’ft is the only man in France powerful enough to interfere with Napoieon’s prtafid. The present de cade has been crowded With So many startling events that lew will he surprised to see the Man of Sedan again at tbe head of the Empire. Heavy Vebdicp Against a Railroad Com pany.—lu the Morgan county (Ifhmis) Court, in session at Jacksonville, on Fri day, the Jacksonville D*pot Company ob tained a verdict of $28,000 against the Toledo, Wabash St Western Railroad Com pany, under the following facts r The Jacksonville Building Company erected a large depot, including an eating house, on the railroad gronnds of that city, the railroad agreeing to use part of the structure as a passenger depot, for which a rent was to be pai # and, and they further agreed to stop the passenger trains twenty minutes at for meals* The Com pany failed to comply with the latter part of the agreement, whereupon the Building Company sued for the cost of the building. The verdict was rendered to the fall amount claimed, with costs.

Saratoga Diamonds. —A cutiespotident of the Chicago Tribune writing from Sarato ga, «ny« : The extravagance ia drees is incredible ; atid.au to diamonds, why, they are the merest drug.

" ' * >* : sf »«•»»* , ' Oojfe Up in Osoi»rA.—The traveling correspondent of the New York Herald, who ia engaged in a gort of gen» erai recouooissanue of the political situa tion in the Bootherii'States, tells the story of Georgia ftotn Atlanta, in ft few brief sentences, as follows : So far as Georgia is concerned, there is no Republican party in this Stale. Bol lock has ‘gone back,on it,* Brown doesn't recognize it, and all the other leaders, big fish and sardines alike, repudiate it. All are iu favor of the ‘new departures,' what ever they may mean. True enough, the so-called Republican organ here —a very ably edited paper, by the way—still keeps the came of Grant at«the bead ot its editor rial page, but its politics are decidedly Conservative, and are anything else than in accord with the platform of the Ohio Radicals and lh<r sentiments of Senator* Sherman and Morton. In fact the Repub lican party here is as dead as a door najl ; and 1 may say that, excepting South Car olina and Mississippi, it *iern.« to be equal ly defunct in every other Sonteern State. A few month- more will tell the story, and I shall be surprised if the narration is, at all satisfactory to either President Grant or to the Republican party of the North.
