who lias played such a prominent part in the
alleged conspiracy of Jefferson Davis against
Mr. Lincoln, have been successful. Judge Ad

it to memory by bis advice and with ids assist
ance, and then, in company with him, went to
the office of the Judge Advocate General, and
there repeated it to Judge Holt, and lie wrote
it down and I verified the same as my deposi

and false; was fabricated by the said Conover
alias Dunham, and 1 made the same by his pro

Wendell Phillipk on Grant and Sherman.
“The day has gone by,” said a friend, “when
a man can be President of the United States
merely because he keeps his mouth shut.” No
buying again a “pig in poke.” There is a reti
cence which hides nothingness. Surely that is
no qualification for responsible office. There
is a reticence which hides something. We wish
to know what that something is before we trust
such reticence with power.
If General Grant’s friends mean to ask the
country’s support of him as President, they
must allow us at least a guess as to his opinions.
11l this battlo of ideas a man must wear the uni
form of oue party or the other. This General
Grant declines to do. Then, like all neutrals,
'he must be watched and prevented Irom doing
mischief, but never trusted. This conclusion
we reach, judging him only by his words or
lack of words. When we come to actions, he
lets himself be the tool of the reaction. Alike
from the duties which he neglects and from the
subserviency which shows when he does act,
we. infer that Grant docs not want to have any
opinions on the great national problem. He is
content to he the unreasoning tool of men
about him as his own guns were in Virginia.
Iu these days, however, we need a man, and not,
merely ißflgurcd-liead, lor President. He who,
holding the thunderbolts of the Government in
liis hand, allowed the New Orleans massacre and
the Memphis riot—-the commander who lets the
world see that in the territory lie professes to
have conquered law cannot be executed, and in>
one of his owu soldiers is sale beneath the flag,
is either incompetent or disloyal. If this is a
specimen of his fitness for office, the nation lias
had more than enough of him. His future
should occasion no surprise. The routine
soldier, like the routine sailor, is generally unlit
for anything else.
Sherman can hide under no such excuse.—
There is no doubt he lias genius. Emerson
tells of a Colonel Buford, at West Point, who
struck the trunnions a cannon so many
thousand blown with a hammer that at last lie
broke them. Just so Grant broke the rebellion;
Sherman conquered with his trnins as truly as
with his sword. He will never be.a King Log.
it is vitally important that his steps toward the
Presidency should be vigilantly scrutinized. -
Long time a resident, of the South, lie lias all
the narrow prejudices and absurd opinions of
that section. lie; hates New England for the
ideas it represents. He has nothing liut curses
and contemptuous criticism for Massachusetts;
not, ot course, the geographical State, liut the
principles, ideas, and purpose which that name
stirs in the mind ot every man who hears it.
We fear lie lias learned little from the war.
Bigotted, halt-informed, intensely sectional
Hie moment armed resistance ceases, he is just
the man to serve the South in her effort to re
gain by intrigue what she lost by arms. If he
is our next President, be will carry out to its
fulfilment, on a national scale, that disgraceful
and wholesale surrender to Johnston which
only a Northern growl, that drowned even the
thunder of Niagara, frighteued him and his com
racles from completing. After living twenty years
at the South in intimate relations with her
leaders, after sweeping through her territory at
the head ofa victorious army and taking the
latest survey of her mood and resources, he
proposed to treat the war as a frolic, and let
both sections resume, substantially, the rela
tions they held before the rebellion. Gcueral
Sherman is too shrewd and capable a man to
allow of our explaining this on any ground of
credulity or misapprehension. Sueli an offer
could have come only from a mind incurably
Southern in its bias and opinions. If the liot
llrcs of such civil war could not burn this folly
and wickedness out of hint, lie is past cure.
liis clear, logical common sense taught him
what honor and fair play demanded. While hi;
had no relish for the plan of allowing negroes
to light, and Hung liis influence against it, lie
confessed that “to admit the negro to this
struggle lor any purpose was to give him a
right to slay in it for all, ancl that when the
light is over tin' hand that, drops the musket
cannot be denied the ballot;” still no man lias
since heard one word from him in support of
that rule of justice and fair play, liisnai rofv,
sectional hate has smothered his logic. His
old, bitter aristocracy of the skin still clings to
him. There is an old proverb that “an Italianized
Englishman is a devil incarnate.” A Northern
born slaveholder was always the worst tyrant.
A Northern politician steeped in Southern hate
is the most incurable of all bigots and most
dangerous to trust with power.

Austrian Hoatjlitv to Prussia—-The Proofs
‘Of It. .
It required not the singular want of tact dis
played by tho Emperor in causing his cousins,
long alter the war was over, to renounce their
titles as nominal commanders ot Prussian regi
ments, to convince Europe that the restoration
of peace was in liis eyes any thing but identical
with a renewal of friendship.
Again, the Emperor’s sentiments wore well
marked when he permitted on Austrian colonel
to attend Hie banquet given by the King of
Hanover in Vienna, and there to make a speech,
promising the blind King that Austrians would
soon load him back in triumph to iiis late do
minions. This speech may have resulted from
an over indulgence in wine, and must not he
regarded as an official sentiment, but as the
matter was universally promulgated, published
in every Viennese paper, and that the colonel
was never reprimanded or his sentiments con
tradicted, vye may take them as in accordance
with those felt 4q. t};e “ if of Burg.”
It is also strange that General Qnlileny, one
of the few Austrian 'Generals who distinguish
ud himself during the late campaign, should
have been requested to retire ; iiis retirement
being required on accon-ht ot his being the only
one hi the Austrian commanders who recom
mended a traujL «nen reconciliation with
Prussia.
All through that period when Vienna was
under martial law, and Hie press consequently
under the power and control of the Govern
ment officials, there is not an instance recorded
of any rebuke being made to any newspapers
for virulent abuse of Prussia; abuse which,
after the peace, instead of ceasing qr diminish
ing, lias steadily and daily increased, till it has
now reached a height it ljad not attained before
the eouiiufiueejrpenl, of hostilities, when it was
notoriously virulent and abusive. On the; con
trary,! have heard it said, by very well informed
persons, too, that the press is quietly inform
ed that these*expressions of hatred ancl dis
sent against Prussia are favorably looked upon
by the (government, who wish to foment as
much as possible the spirit of opposition felt
by the people toward the Power that humbled
them.

PEEI.INO OS T»1B AUSIV,
The army, as I have often before remarked,
is to a man in favor of another “slap” at Prussia
at the first opportunity. The people, even the
Bohemians, who suffered go much, and the
Viennese, who so nearly lost their capita!, are
also in tuyor of a war with Prussia at the first
favorable oppqrlunity. I do not wish it to he
thought that, they are ready t» rush in to-day,
or to-morrow, but they will answer tiie call
whenever it may come, and that right patrioti
cally and readily—the Viennese I mean, be it
remembered. On the whole, I feel convinced
that Austria, as a nation, desires war with Prus
sia, and {Rat her wish will he gratified in twelve,
eighteen, or twenty-loiir mouths; where, on on
what occasion, it is impossible so say ; but,
God knows, pretexts will not be wanting.
Short Dresses. —Tiie edict has gone forth
from tiie French cnpital—tiie seat of the empire
of fiislfiOU—tbat tiie ladies will wear short dress
es. Tiie new style tins already reached Ijow
York, and is being exhibited there, aud it is
said to delight the ladies very much. It is not
understood that tiie bloomer customc is to lie
adopted by auy means. But the sweeping trails
that drag the sidewalks, and all public places—
those extremities upon which gentlemen are
constantly treading, ttfid Y/bieb often cover a
great deal that is filthy and unsightly— tiie»e
are to be abandoned. The substitute is a dress
that is short enough to clear the floor and tiie
pavement, and long enough to conceal from
view all that it is desirable to conceal. If a lady
wears clean hose it will be known under the new
style, and she will have the credit of tidiness in
that particular, and she will not sop the water
and filth of the streets with her skirls and transfer
it to her bqso. fhose who have ridiculed tilt
ing hoops, aud denounced the ladies who spqrj,
them, will be pleased with the new style of dreds,
for, worn with a proper skirt of moderate pro
portions, it will in no sense be offensive to de
cency and good taste. It is true that it will af
ford so those who are so rude as to look at a
lady's heels u« piufereiicp fQ her fiend, ft steqdv:,
uniform, uninterrupted view of just so much its
she intends to exhibit and no more. There will
fig ijo swaying and bounding and dancing ol
expanded dry gbbds—no startling disclosures
that pass over tiie vision like meteoric flashes
—things seen but *t moment and then seen no
more till the balloons come in contract with
another of its kind, idts a door-casing or is
thrown out perpendicular by some cause.
Nothing more of this kind under the new style
Os short dress and contracted skirts. All will
, be lovely, graceful, becoming and bewitching,
and what is more, a few yards of silk, muslin,
dimity, etc., will be saved for the benefit of
whom it may concern.
Something for the Ladies.
The I Vinter Fashion —flow the Costumes Are
Cut.
Wliat engrosses a woman’s attention like the
details of the latest decree ot those who say
what they shall and what they shall not wear ?
They may purse up their mouths—affect a con
tempt for fashion’s foibles, and declare iu all
earnestness that they will not wear the new
monstrosity, fresh though it be from the great
centre of fashion —Paris, tinged yet with Hie
lascivious air of the Louvre or the grand salons
of the Tuileries, yet ere their opposition as
sumes a tangible shape, their repugnance wilts
away, and they become the most enthusiastic
worshippers among the bevy of devotees at the
shrine of the “new style.” That our lady read
ers may know what habilimeqf.B they are ex
pected to don during the next three months,
we give below a full description of the latest
mandates of the demi-monde from the recogniz
ed authorities :
No matter what shaped pedals nature has
gifted you with—whether fairly rounded or the
reverse—you must make up your minds to
wear short petticoats and nai row crinoline, for,
before the winter is over, no fashionable lady
will bo seen on tbc streets with a train. The
colored petticoat will be abandoned altogether,
while one cut from the same material as the
dress will take its place. The arrangement of
this now style of toilet (with two skirts, so to
speak) will be as follows: First, a petticoat will
lie made to reach as far as Hie knee, with any
material that is convenient; to this will be join
ed a deep border of the same material as the
dress. This border is plain at the edge, and if
any trimming- is desired, it is placed above the
straight liem.
The second or upper skirt is very narrow
round the Lips, auci is cut out at the edge in
large round scallops. This edge is occasional
ly varied, according to the taste, by cutting it
in squares, like the top of a battlement, or in
Vandykes or festoons; but whatever form it
assumes, it is always bordered either with vel
vet gimp or narrow silk fringe.
The. following is a pretty model: A dark
blue faille dress, cut ronml fstlie edge of the
skirt in round scollops, and bordered witli a
plait or tress of thick black purse silk; on the
under skirt three rows of black gimp of the
same pattern as the silk plait. The fourruuu
is cut in the princess form, and the bodies are
trimmed with a tress of black silk.
Bauds made partly of satin and partly of
velvet arc now sold lor petticoat trimmings.
They are very handsome, and are advantageous
iu this respect—they can be easily imitated and
mounted by a skillful maid without the aid of
a professional dress-maker, and pieces of vel
vet and satin that may have been lain by as too
small for other purposes, can now he utilized
for trimming winter petticoats ; the narrower
the alternate strips ot velvet and satin are the
better is their effect.
The •Gabrielte, or Princess lorui of dress,
which lias been so very popular, has by no
means dethroned the small jackets ; and now
that ladies have found out what an exceedingly
useful garment a small jacket is, they will cling
to tile fashion pertinaciously. They are still
made without sleeves lor dressy toilets, and of
lace with sleeves for wearing low dresses. Bends
are so fashionable that they arc imitated in gimp,
particularly the white beads, Avliieli have been
lavished on black gimps. The effect is pretty,
but these simulations possess a great advantage
over the reality in being lighter than the glass
and jet beads. Besides, silk heads are cheaper
than the veritable beads. A black silk gimp
which describes festoons, and is studded with
white silk clots, looking like chalk beads, is the
favorite pattern fol - trimming black,silk pep
lntns an I black silk jackets.
For paletots and peplums, which are made
of the same material as the dress, it is always
considered more distinguished to select tiic
trimmings to match the dress, than to contrast
iu color from it.
Feather trimmings arc much used on both
dresses and paletots. A very original style of
toilet, much admired, is a low pepluni made of
cerise silk, bordered with blac k feather trim
ming, and worn over a high white silk gauze
dress. Both white and colored feather trim
mings are very popular round ! silk peplums.
A baud ol ban k’s feathers round a poplin pal
etot with facings is com idered very elegant ;
in tact, these'feat her trimmings are looked upon
as demi-saison tin s. They are, however,’by no
meaps used indiscriminately; bands ot pea
cock’s feathers are only to be seen rouud paJe
tots rstdro* the rtobost and most delicate silks
and poplins, while the black feathers are seen
only on cashmere paletots. The cashmere is
cut out in scallops, and the feather band follows
the outline of the scallops; the small collar is
likewise bordered with feathers, as are the tops
and cuffs of the sleeves.
Tiie materials tlmt will be most in vogue for
out-door dresses are faille (unwatered moire)
and poplin Tiie latter is preferred by young
married and numnrricd women ; and so great
has been the demand for it within the past fort
night, that, its price has been considerably aug
mented. The favorite colors arc pale blue—of
a bright shade —dark brilliant blue and pearl
gray. Dresses are now made with basquincs
which are simulated with trimming. When the
trimming is of rather a heavy description, such
as either thick silk or chenille fringe, or a
pinked out ruche, Hie illusion is complete, and
the effect loads one to suppose that the dress
lias a basquinc This simulated basquinc natu
rally fits well, being the. bodice. Coat-tails are
likewise simulated on skirts, by means ol trim
ming ; but, of course, these simulations are
only possible whew the silks are cut plain and
withqqf any plaits at the lyaist. This novel
style of trimming is sovaetirues very original,
ns, for example, on a blue silk dress, which was
made recently by one of our fashionable dress
makers. The skirt was gored until it was plain
all around the waist; black ribbon velvet sewn
on plain, and a second row of black velvet van
dyked at tiie edge, described the contour of a
basque. Tiie vanity lied velvet , which was cut
from the piece and was not ribbon,) descended
straight down the back breadth of the Skirt until
it readied the top of the hem, describing one
wide coat-tail, which completely inloscd the
width Qf the back,
Ql all the varied shapes of bonnets now out, !
the Queen Emma, s 6 called in honor of our
late royal visitor from the Sandwich Islands, is
destined to become the most popular, its beau
ty being idialled u head gear among the
ladies. It resembles somewhat tho celestial m
sltape, but forms a sort ot lap over the ears,
with a number of small points in the back.
The trimming consists of two rows of blonde
lace, as rich in quality as it is tasteful in pat
tern. Each fail o( lace is headed with three
Idas folds ot royal velvet, while a superb bird
of Paradise is gracefully poised on one side,
Where it is"confined by a knot of amber velvet,
communicating wjtl) tfie bandeau hi the inside
of the bonnet, which is composed of a torsade
of amber velvet with a dainty little duster of
loop or narrow blonde lace on one side, tlie
strings of rich watered white ribbon.
Another very pretty style is the Lambellc.—
The front is of tiie lilac velvet fluted, and the
back, which is of plain velvet, ;§ covered with a
magnificent coiffure of blonde lace, which ex
tends down the side of the bonnet and forms
tiie strings. Benoiton chains of pearls fall at
the hack. On the inside is a bandeau of velvet,
richly ornamented with pearl pendants.
We fed that we have given enough inform: - ,
tiou to enable the girls to make up from it a
superb frqsscagt, and so we have done.
Romantic S t our.—The New York Herald of
yesterday savs : A somewhat" remarkable change
of fortune lias occurred to a young nee,
by the name of George Olsctn, and occupying
the, humble position of a lamp trimmer and
“Jade of the Dust” on board the United States
steamship Madawaska, now in port, by which
lie has suddenly come into possession of $300,-
000 in gold, together with the Hungarian title
of Edward Louis, Count Battliyauyi, and the
extensive estates attached thereto* It appears
that Oslon, or the Count, left liis country in
IS4B, when very young, after liis father had been
executed tor being concerned in the rebellion
under Kossuth (lo whom he is nearly related),
and has since been in the United States. lie
knew little of liis family or their real position,
and supposed that in coqsequcupc qf I,is father's
disloyalty all their possessions had been con
fiscated. Finding it difficult to gain a liveli
hood he joined the United States navy and was
dratted on board tiie United Slates steamer
Madawaska as a landsman, was employed as a
lamp trimmer and assistant to tfie captain oi
the hold.
Happening to get hold of a newspaper a short
time siuee, he discovered an advertisement re
questing Edward Louis Batthynuyi to com
municate with certain parties and he would
“hear of something to his advantage.” Qt;
young blue-blooded Iluugafian laiup-frituiuer
iost no time in coni plying, and, having proved
his identity, received an instalment of $300,000.
Instead of informing his commanding officer of
this strange vicissitude of fortune, whieli had
metamorphosed a United States paya! iamp

The Laws »f Health. |
It is useless for State Legislatures to pass laws MUM
preservation of tho public health, if the great law (IM
preservation, which depend* for its enforcement upoiiUg?
will of the individual, is suffered to remain a dead lott^j
There is scarcely an adult member of the
of either sex, in this couuti y, who lias not seen tho
mony in favor of IIOSTHTTKR S STOMACH BITTEBK
furnished over their own signatures by persons of
knowledged eminence in science, literature, art, con*
inerce, and every department of business and professional
life. These witnesses have declared iu tho most explfeii
terms that the preparation is a safeguard against epidejni
ics, a sovereign remedy for dyspepsia, a valuable anti'l
bilious medicine, a promoter of appetite, a genial and]
harmless stimulant, a good acclimating medicine, a
streuffthener of the nerves, a general Invigorant, a pro
tection against the deleterious effects of malaria and iuH
pure water, and that it imparls a degree of vigor and ac-j
tivity to the vital forces which is not communicated by
a ity other of tho tonics and stomachics in use. Under
these circumstances the soil-preservative law of nature
should teach every rational person who, either by reason
of inherent debility or in consequence of exposure to un
wholesome influences, is in peril of losing the greatest of
all temporal blessings, hbaltiT, the importance of using
tlie BITTERS as a defensive medicine. Dyspeptics who
neglect to give it a trial are simply their own enemies.—
It is guaranteed to cure Indigestion in all its forms, and
the bilious and nervous will find nothing in the whole
range of official and proprietary medicines which will af
ford them the same relief. novl-tnol3
A New and Grand Epoch in Medicine !
Dr. Maggibl is the founder of a new Medical System!
Tho quatitilarians* whose vast internal doses enfeeble
the stomach and paralyse the bowels, must give prece
dence to the man who restores health and appetite, with
from one to two of his extraordinary Pills, and cures the
most virulent sores with a box or so of his wonderful and
all healing Salve. These two great specifics of the Doctor
are fast superseding all tho stereotyped nostrums of the
day. Extraordinary cures by MaggiePs Pills and Salve
have opened the eyes of the public to the inefficiency or
the (so called) remedies of others, and upon which people
have so long blindly depended. Maggie!’* Pills are not
of tlie class that are swallowed by the dozen, and of
which every box full taken creates an absolute necessity
for another. One or two of Maggie!*** Pills suffices to
place the bowels in perfect order, tone the stomach,
create an appetite, and render the spirits light and buoy
ant ! There is no griping, and no reaction in the form of
constipation. If tho liver is affected, its functions are
restored ; and if the nervous system is feeble, it is invigo
rated. This last quality makes the medicines very desi
rable fur the wants of delicate females. Ulcerous and
eruptive diseases are literally extinguished by the disin
fectant power of Maggiel’s Salve. In fact, it is here an
nounced that MaggieVs Bilious, Dyspeptic, and Diarrhea
Pills cure where all others fail. While for Burns, Scalds,
Chilblains, Cuts and all abrasions of the skin, Maggie is
Salve is infallible.
Sold by J. Maooirl, New York, and aH Druggists, at 25
