New Boots for Ladies.— Ladies’ boots,
this season, are made altogether upon the
new Spanish last. The curve of the sole is
extraordinary high, raising the instep, and'
by supporting the muscles, makinjrpossL
idea tighter and shorter boot .than has be-,
’mrfe txten worn. The looms Qninzc heel Is
Considered more stylish than auy other.
It’s a daring, dangerous, coquettish little
folly, measures two inches, slopes very
much, and is smooth’y finished. Brass
plates are not used at all. ’ A black kid
boot undoubtedly makes the foot look
smaller than it is, and this year is not. at
all elaborate save In artistic cut. The kid
foxlngs are plain, simply stitched with silk
matching the uppers in color. There’s a
great deal in pntting on a boot.; scarcely
’ one woman in tlfiy knows how. It should
be drawn on as carefully and slowly as a
glove, smoothed and patted, and coaxed
into leathery good humor.

Water Famine in Troy.—The people
of Troy arc alarmed at the scarcity of
water in the reservoirs' of the city water
works. The Troy Press says:
The consumption of water in Troy is
enormous. Three hundred thousand gal
lons are used daily in some manner, the
greater part oi it probably wasted. The'
city lias live reservoirs—two in Brunswick,
two above Oakwood avenue, and two near
Eddy’s lampblack factory, one of which is
the distributing reservoir. Early iu the
Spring the Commissioners took every care
to start with a quantity which they
thought sufficient to hold out with Ihe
assistance of its tributaries ; but now they
arc alarmed, and even say that unless a
great change is seen in the demand for
water, the Hudson river will have to be
used to “fill up.”
Bismuth in Texas.— Bismuth is found
In Archer county, Texap. The ore of this
rare mineral is found in quartz, from which,
when heated to 500 degrees F., the melted
metal is collected as it runs from the fur
nace. It is of “ a somewhat silvery bright
ness, with a ro-seate tinge.” It is used in
small quantity as a component of Brit
tannia ware; one of its chemical prepara
tions is employed in medicine, and the same
has been extensively applied as a cosmetic
under the name of “lily white,” in conse
quence of the delicate white tint of the
powder. Its effect after much use is to
leave the skin of a dirty yellow line, and of
a leathery texture.
Strength of the United States Army.
—The total strength of the United States
army, according to Gen. Sherman’s report,
is 34,870 men, including twenty-five iu
fantry regiments, 16,486 m<»; ten cavalry
regiments, 9,802 men; and five artillery
regiments, 4,205 men. The total commis
sioned officers, for all branches of the ser
vice, is 2,488. This number must be re
duced to 2,277 before January 1, 1871, an||
the number of enlisted men must be re
duced to 30,000 before July 1,1871.
Sri-lUcckli) Constitutionalist.
A Life of Sin Atoned nor by a Life of
Puayeii and Charity. — It is very seldom
that those who lead a life of gilded shame,
not as npmpJus du. pane, bat as the keepers
of maiso/ui dejoi, ever descend from their
gojdedjedestal to seek in a Hfeof penitence
atonement, for the errors of the past.—
Among the most noted and fashionable
houses frequented by the fast men and
worqeivof the period, was tip* one kept by
J*ne McCord, in a street not a mile from
r ifth avenue, which was furnished in a
palatial stylo, with furniture imported ox
pressly from Paris, at a cost of nearly
t 100,000. The carpets, mirrors, &c., were
the most costly that money could procure.
11l tills house Jane held high carnival. It
appears afler leading this life until a very
late day, Jane, under the administrations
of a well-known Catholic clergyman, whose
eloquent appeals and solemn warnings had
at length lieir desired eff.-ct, determined to
abandon her career of shame. We now
find the giddy woman of the world and the"
leafier of the demimonde leaving her splen
did home aud princely income for two small
rooms and a moderate competence, just
enough to keep her from actual want; sell
ing her house, furniture, jewels and other
adornments, valued at upward of SIOO,OOO,
and distributing the entire proceeds, in re
gular instalments, to tliedifferentasylnms
and other institutions of mercy, under the
guardianship oftlie Sisters of Charity, who
are her almoners indjjis noble work. The
former inmates of her house have also been
pensioners on her bounty to the extent of
thousands of dollars— enough, in fact, to
enable them to lead an honest and reputable
life in t he future, which a number of them,
through her example and advice, are
already doing.
As charity covers a multitud ; of sius it
is to be hoped that the lile of penitence and
prayer that this modern Magdalen has laid
down for herself will not only receive its
due reward, lint will also have the effect
of turning many from the broad road to
destruction to the straight and uarrow path
that leads to eternal happiness.

Comfort for Debtors—lmportant
Amendment.to the Bankruptcy Law.—
The clause of the thirl v-second section of
the bankruptcy act of 1867 provides as fol
lows :
That in all proceedings in bankruptcy
commenced in one year from the time this
act shall go into operation, no discharge
shall be granted to a debtor whose assets
do not pay fifty per centum of the claims
against, his estate, unless the assent in
writing of a majority in number and value
of Ida creditors who have proved their
claims is filed in the case at or before the
time of application Mr dtw harge.
This clause, commonly called the fifty
percent., danse, went into Operation on the
first of January, 1569, as an amendment
to the law, the original intention of Con
gress being t hat. (he amendment should
lake effect on the Ist of June, 1868, but
Congress agreed that it should not have
operation till the .Tannary following. Nmv
comes another and most, important amend
ment, which provides that the above
clause shall got, apply to the debts from
which the bank seeks a discharge which
were contracted prior to the lst.of January,
1809. In other words, in order to make
the fact plain, any person who has con
tracted debts prior to January 1, 1869.
may, on his own petition, go into volunta
ry bankruptcy, as if the' fifty per cent,
cl use did not exist at all.
The “Involuntary’' portion of the act
has been amended in the manner set forth
in the subjoined paragraph :
That the clause In the thirty-ninth section
ofsaid act, which now reads, “or who, being
a banker, merchant or trader, has fraud tT
lently stopped or sus|>ended, aud not re
sumed payment of his commercial papers,
within a period of inuVfeeu ejaya'" shall lie
amended so- as to jean as-f6TIIoWS f
who, being a banker, 'broker, merchant,
trader, manufacturer or minor, has fraudu
lently stopped or suspended and not re
sumed payment of his commercial paper
within a period of fourteen days.”
It is well that the legal profession and
the public generally should be made ac
quainted with the above, which refers to a
very essential part of the bankruptcy law.
Curious -Political Revolutions.—
Everywhere, at the late election, the peo
ple rose against party managers and “ ran
the machine ”to suit themselves. Missou
ri, which, in 1808, gave McClurg 19,327
majority, thin year sends him whirling out
of his seat, with 40,000 majority for his op
ponent. lngersoll, Republican, of Illinois,
who received 7,000 majority in 1868, this
year takes a back seat, bis competitor beat
ing him hv 2,000 votes. > Two years ago,
the Republican majority in the Michigan
sixth district was 3,230; this year it give a
a Democratic majority of 2,150. The fifth
district of New Jersey,’in 1808 gave a De
mocratic majority of 2,248; last week, the
Democratic candidate for Congress was
c-leeT&V to stly .-it home by over 3,000 ma
jority. West Virginia was expected to
double her majority of 9,000 for Grant, but
the most, astute tricksters were astounded
when she rolled up a Democratic majority
of 11,000. In the New York Killeenth
Congressional District, Tanner, Republi
can, who was elected in 1868 by over 2,400
majority, is succeeded by Joseph M. War
ren, Democrat, who has been elected by
the remarkable majority of 0,700. The
above extraordinary changes show that
the people, when they choose to take a
hand iu the business, can manage things
pretly much as they please.
[jVccc York Herald.
The Louisiana Crop.— The New Orleans
Times says:
Avery experienced cotton factor, re
cently from the adjacent cotton section, re
ports the amount, of cotton produced this
season as beyond all precedent. He thinks
that hardly a planter in the Mississippi
Valley lias raised less than teu bales to the
hand; but. doubts if more than hilf tlie pro
duct will he saved. This is the general
opinion. The reduced rates have had a
large influence to discourage picking. The
receipts in this city begin to gain upon
thope of last year, which are now but
eighteen thousand ahead. Eight or ten
days ago they were thirty thousand ahead.
The lack of labo.r on the levee is a great
drawback upon the river transportation.
Even sixty dollars per month will not com
mand deck hands for our steamboats, and
half the cotton and sugar now ready for
shipment cannot 1)c brought to the city for
the want of labor to lotul the steamboats.
This, too, when there are thousands of idle
negroes hanging about our suburbs and
levee, the presence of whom drives off white
laborers.
The Working People.— The planters of
the Southwest complain of the difficulties
of obtaining bauds to pick cottOD, although
there never was a more favorable season
or more cotton ready to be picked. In Ar
kansas, it is reported that the bursting
pods of cotton give the fields in all direc
tions the appearance of the Northern
prairies after a heavy fall of snow. This
indisposition on the part of the hands to
gather iu the crop is attributed to the po
litical excitement of tlie Antumn, and also
to tlie low price of cotton. The negroes,
it is stated, have got In debt to the extent
of their shares in the crop, and believe any
further labor would only be to the profit of
the creditors. The effect of this reluctance
of the hands to pick the cotton, It is be
lieved, will affect the yield materially. If
two-thirds only of the open bolls could be
picked, the crop, it is reported, would be a
very large one. Fears are also expressed
that the late rains of the Autumn will de
stroy fflnrt of the crop.
A erne! mother in Indiana recently cap
tured and married her daughter's intended,
whereat the young lady took umbrage, ami
by way of dire revenge set off a half dozen
bunches of fire crackers under the bridal
coach.

Ayer’s Cathartic Pills,
For all the purposes of a Laxative
Medicine.
M Perhaps no one medi
cine in ho universally re
quired by everybody as
a cathartic, nor was ever
any before ho universal
ly adopted Into use, in
every country and among
all classes, as this mild
but etticient purgative
lUII. The obvious rea
son is, that it is a more re
liable and far more effec
tual remedy than any
other. Those who have
tried it, know that it cured them; those who have
not, know that it cures their neighbors and friends,
and all know that what it does once it does always
that it never fails through any fault or neglectof
its composition. We have thousands upon thou
sands or cerliiicates of their remarkable cures of the
following complaints, but such cures are known in
every neighborhood, and we. need not publish them.
Adapted to all ages and conditions in all climates;
containing neither calomel or any deleterious drug,
they may be taken with nafety by anybody. Their
sugar coating preserves them ever fresh and makes
them pleasant to take, while being purely vegetable
no harm can arise from their use in any quantity.
They operate by their powerful influence on the
Internal viscera to purify the blood and stimulate it
into healthy action remove the obstructions of the
stomach, bowels, liver, and other organs of the
body, restoriug their irregular action to health, and
by correcting, wherever they exist, such derange
ments as are the first origin of disease.
Minute directions are given in the wrapper on
the box, for the following complaints, which these
Pills rapidly cure:
For Umpeiwia or Indigestion, I.intlcu
ness, Lsuifuur and I<ass of Appetite, they
should be taken moderately to stimulate the stom
ach and restore its healthy tone and action.
For liver Complaint and its various symp
toms, Bilious H«adnclio, Sick Headache,
Jaundice or tti'cco Sickness, Bilious
Colic and Bilious levers, they should lio ju
diciously taken for each case, to correct the diseased
action or remove the obstructions which cause it.
For Ikysentorjr or Diarrhoea, but oue mild
dose is generally required.
For Rheumatism, Clont, Gravel, Palpi*
cation of the Heart, Pain In the Mide,
Back and I#olns, they should be continuously
taken, as required, to change the diseased action of
the system. With such change those complaints
disappear.
For Dropsy and Bropsical dwellings they
should be taken in large and froquent doses to pro
duce the effect of a drastic purge.
For Suppression a large dose should be taken
as.it produces the desired effect by sympathy.
As ft Vinner Pill, take oue or two, Pills to pro
mote digestion mid relievo the stomach.
An occasional dose stimulates the stomach and
bowels into healthy action, restores the appetite,
and invigorates the system, lienee it is often ad
vantageous where no serious derangement exists.
One who feels tolerably well, often finds that a dose
of these Pills makes him feel decidedly better, from
their cleansing and renovating effect on the diges
tive apparatus.
