Turns—Hash CONSTITUTIONALIST WEDNESDAY MOENINO. NOV 23,1870 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. What it Costs to See Nilsson —The cost of attending one of her concerts, ac cording to Oriental victim, is nicely esti mated as follows: To two tickets., $8 GO ft - 6 fit) 1 25 One houq net A .. 50 Concert book 25 Supper 5 00 Papers next morning (to see whether it was :f good concert) 18 Seeing a man at in'emission 50 Bust of Nilsson, which J.- Maria would buy before she heard her .. 500 Total S2O 18 N. B.—The young man’s weekly board is only sl2 50. 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.

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. JOB. J.
