Ctjronicte an& jSmtmel. WEDNESDAY NOVEMBER 13 THE NURBKRY ELF. BT JOSEPHINE POLLARD. Dear little feet, how you wander and wander. Little twin truant*, no fleet. Dear little head, how you ponder and ponder Over the things that you meet. Dear little tongue, how you chatter and chatter. Over your innocent joy. Oh ! but the house in alive with your chatter— . Shaking, indeed, with yonr noise. Can’t you tie qniet a moment, sweet rover? Ih there no end to yonr fun ? Soon the "oid Bind man' will sprinkle you over, Then the day’s frolic is done. Come to my arms, for the daylight in dying. Closer the dark shadows creep: Come, like a bird that is weary of flying; Come, let me sing you to Bleep. HOW SOON FOKOOTTEN. Oh. how noon we are forgot ten. When we rest beneath the sod. And our feet no longer wander ' O’er the paths we oft have trod; When the form that was so cherished With a love both pure and deep. Lies within the earth's dark bosom, In its long. last, quiet sleep. For a few brief days, it may be— Had we home and kindred dear. When tliev meet around the hearth-stone. There will be a lack of cheer ; Asa vacant seat will tel! them Os affection's broken ties ; And tlieir thoughts perchance will wander, 'Where the dreamless sleeper lies. But should a stem fate deprive us Os a bright and cheerfnl home, And in w eariness of spirit, / O'er life's nigged way we roam : When the golden bowl is broken, And the lone one finds a rest ; 'Twill excite no dread commotion In one palpitating breast. Yet tis well that thus it should be. In life's brief revolving years : Else this world of budding beauties Would become a vale of tears : When the soul attuned to saduoss And by sorrow overcast, Would enshrine tlie brightest future With sail memories of the past. O, (lIVE ME A HOME IN THE SOUTH! 0 1 give me a home in the South, Down by the murmuring stream. Where the fragrant magnolias bloom, Life's like a niidsnmmer's dream ; lleautifiii stars of the night Peep thro’ the curtains of spa'-e, Shedding tlieir soft mellow light, Loving to smile on my face. O: give me a home in the South. The loveliest spot on the earth ? I care not how humble it be. The dear, sunny land es my birth. O! give me, a borne in the South, Where the mocking birds gather and sing Tlieir melodies cheerful and gay, Welcoming beautiful Spring; Where the river floats gayly along, • Isl its winding way out to the sea ; I care not where others may dwell, A home in tlie South give to me. O! give me a homo in the South - A home 'neatli a Southern sky, Where I’ve lived all the Summer of life. Where tlie friends of my youtli live and die. When I’m called by the Angel of Death To leave all I love on tlie earth. May the Angel then find me asleep in the beautiful land of my birth. THE CALL OF THE ANGELH. Far up the crystal heights of Life. Where lines of living beauty fall, The w'hito-iohcd messengers of Peace, To pilgrims in tlie valley call — ••Come, children of the Spirit, come. The souls you love and trust will show A way of peace unknown before, To all the tilings you long for so.’ •‘Soft hands to wipe the mourner's tears Palms for lho souls that Hook to rise— Love for the fainting, famished heart And Heaven’s own light for longing eves. Come, children of the Spirit, come; 'The living semis who passed before Have left the golden gates ajar,’ Ami light streams through forevermore. ‘•No sin cm blight, nor death destroy. The living soul's immortal part; Nor chance, nor change, the links divide, Which bind it to the Central Heart. Como, children of the Spirit, come, And learn the Truth which makes you free Through Life and Death, through Chance and Fate, Work out your glorious destiny. “The Hand that never wrought in vain Hath traced His alphabet of Love In wondrous works of life below, In slaiH and flaming suns above. Come, children of the Spirit, come. From false and faithless records turn ; Come, read the Everlasting Name, And life’s immortal Science learn. “The lineament is set with stars— The countless home of conntless souls— But one great law of Life anil Love The LioumllciH* universe controls. Come, children of the Spirit come. Life’s deepest depths repeat the call; Press onward to the Source of Light, Anil Hcek the Central Soul of All.’’ HEAVEN BY LITTLES. Heaven is not reached at a single bound; But we build the ladder by which we rise From the lowly earth to the vaulted skies. Ami we inoiuit to its summit round by round. I count these things to lie grandly true! That a noble deed is a step toward God— l.iliing the soul from the common sod To a purer air and a broader view. We rise bv the things that are underour feet; By what we have mastered of greed and gain, Bv the pride deposed and the i>a»sioii slain, Ami the vanquished ill that we hourly meet. We laqie. we resolve, we aspire, we trust. When the morning calls to life and light. But our hearts grow weary, and ere the night. One lives are trailing the sordid dust. Wings for the angels, but feet for the men! We must borrow the wings to find the way— We may hope, and resolve, and aspire, and pray. But our feet must riso or wo fail again. Only in dreams is a ladder thrown From the weary earth to the sapphire walls; Bill the dreams depart, and the vision falls, Ami the sleeper wakes on liis pillow of stone. Heaven is not readied at a single bound But we build the ladder by which we rise Front the lowly earth to tlie vaulted skies. And we mount to its summit round by round. SOMEBODY’S HAND. There's a soft little hand, with just one or two There* a dozen of dimple*, and souio other thins*. And the hand is as white, and as pretty, I i know. As the prints of the birds on the new-fallen snow. It is soft, it is warm, and its pressure is sweet. When, by chaneo or design, lingers happen to meet. And the lady who owns it is pretty and free— Except in the promise she's just made to me. Tis a hand to bo fondled, and petted and kissed. When encased in white kid. on society’s list; Tis a hand to lie held, and be loved, with the rest. When the gloves thrown aside and Somebody's at rest. 'Tie a hand m adversity, sorrow, or care— When thf brain burns with fever, or chills in the air— Tis a hand to smooth wrinkles and banish the pain. When lights arc burned low. and life's breath : on the wane. Tis a hand for the death-bed, to take the last pledge. When the grave yawns in waiting, with Death at its edge With a future unknown, and the lmngaiest sod j Is waiting to hide all that's not gone to God. l’is a hand for the bridal, to give all the thrust I That a life has been given, as some time it must - With the heart, and the life, and the faith, and the name. And all the fond tribute its owner can claim.. Good Temper.— Gootl temper is the snnshitie of the domestic circle, and must lie prized and cultivated according ly. Fretfulness, peevishness, sulleuness, bitterness and anger must be viewed as so many hissing snakes, and driven from every heart that claims the distinc tion of lieing happy. When tempted to give away to any ill-feelings, self-re straint must Ih> exercised, and mutual forbearance shown. Much will be ac complished by carrying out the deter mination that both shall never lose their temper at the same time—the one bringing water "liere the other brings tire. “ Let them treat each other's feel ings," it has been well said, “ with lenity, and learn to be, as occasion serves, blind, deaf and dumb especially dumb. Not sullenlydnnib, but serenely dumb. Not silent from moodishness and passion, but silent from reason and affection, looking out the while like a mariner in a dark night for the tifst streaks of the dawn, and hail iug it with a grateful welcome.” A gen tle contrast, a well arranged diversity, gives a relish to married life. It is the necessary condition, however, of such a diversity that the partied should view tilings ’ occasionally from * different point of view, and wisdom will lie* re quired, therefore, by mutual conces sions, gentleness, good humor and for bearance, to prevent sncli diversities of taste, of opinion, becoming the source of quarrel, irritation, or, to use a phrase of modern coinage, “naggle.” A clergy man, who had tied the marriage knot far many a couple, was careful always to whisper to the bride, as his parting counsel, “ Be sure never to have the last word"—ah advice which is excellent, but which is surpassed by the recommenda tion that neither party should take the first one. Compulsory Education in France.— The Council-General of the Department of the Seine hare adopted a resolution in favor of comp' isory education, and the employment of lay teachers in the public schools; and will petition the Assembly for legislation to that effect. A CUSTOMS COMEDY. One Hundred and Fifty Women Searched. The Detroit Free Pres*, of the 22d ultimo, prints the following history : It is a fact probably better known to the enstom house officials than to out siders that at least- every tenth woman who crosses the Detroit river carries smuggled goods. The goods may be tea, coffee, socks, thread, ribbons, or something else of no great value; but the intent to smuggle is there, and the success in bringing over a small lot is nearly always an inducement for the smuggler to try the game on a larger scale. Men may and do smuggle cloth ing now and then, but it is the female sex which carries the burden of guilt. The custom house officials at the ferry dock in this city are as vigilant as offi cers can be, but what chances have they against monster hoop-skirts and gigan tic bustles ? They cannot stop to peep nnder shawls, examine pockets, or look into baby carts and hold a crowd on the boat, and so they must continue tlieir work with the knowledge that goods are being smuggled, and that only one grand and sudden haul of their nets can trap the guilty and frighten the innoce.it so that they will never dare to pursue the business. The net was drawn yesterday.. The officers commenced about two o’clock, , walked fifteen or twenty women up stairs into the customs room, and hand ed them over to a woman to be searched. Every boat load which landed for about three hours was treated in the same manner—that is, all the female portion. Some were indignant and ap pealed to tlieir husbands, who vainly appealed to the customs officers. Others wanted to faint away, but after look ing at the planks and dust concluded not to. Others wept, laughed or turned pale, but none were permitted to escape. During tlie afternoon about one hun dred and fifty women were confronted by Uncle Sam, and the old man had a good deal of fun and made some won derful discoveries. For instance —a modest little woman, who was in a great hurry to go home to her sick child, pulled out a few pins, and ten yards of English flannel fell to the floor. A tall woman, with tears in her eyes, who assorted that she would sooner chop off her head than to think of smuggling, unfastened a pound of tea from her skeleton, and asserted that it must have been placed there by some designing person. Another one indig nantly denied “the right of search,’’but after remaining a prisoner for an hour or two told tlie searcher to “ take it and go to grass,” throwing a package of rib bons and laces on the floor. A lot of calico was found on another, some vel vet on another, and at least ten percent, of tlie whole number were found to be engaged in smuggling. The officials were satisfied with confiscating the goods. FASHIONS. SAILOR BLOUSES. Instead of breakfast sacques for ladies, the furnishing houses are offering sailor blouses of navy blue cloth, not belted, but gathered ‘by a rubber band in the hem in the way children’s blouses are made. They have large sailor collars of white, pale blee, or scarlet cashmere, and cost from $7 to $9. THE SCARF UPPER-SKIRT. For modernizing black silk dresses of last year, we commend the new scarf over-skirt, as it is stylish, easily made anil does not cut up the material. It is simply four yards of silk trimmed all round with narrow lace and passemen terie. Take the middle of the scarf and fasten it at the top by a hook and loop : to the middle of the dress skirt just be- j low the licit; then pass it around the j sides, leaving the front to form a wrink- \ led apron, and tie up the bock in long j loops and sashes. A band of black vel- i vet, a facing, or a simple hem sometimes j serves for trimming. CAMISOLES, TULLE BODICES, ETC. Among French lingerie are dainty camisoles of Indian muslin, with many rows of Valenciennes insertion down the front, and a jabot of shells of lace down tlieir entire length. These are lined throughout with rose or blue silk. Tulle bodices made of alternate puffs of tineat tulle with bands of Valenciennes insertion nave bows of faille ribbon and sashes to match, These are worn at dinner parties with skirts of black or colored silk and a sleeveless basque of black velvet, made with heart-sliapped neck, and trimmed with thread lace and transparent insertions. Braces or bre telWof black velvet ribbon, with sashes of colored Chi no. crape trimmed with point duebesse laoe, arpfllhong the small and dressy extravagance*, BUSINESS SUITS. The novelty for business suits is their short, jaunty, double-breasted coat, generally called the pea-jacket. This suit is made of dark mixtures, with al most invisible pisiula formed of threads of white. The entire si»4, goat, vest and pantloons, is made from tfo» eaipe piece of cloth, and costs from A7 7 to 885. The overcoat for such suits is a long sacque of rough cloth, such as Ktysian and fur heavers. aivWf pRESS SUITS. Semi-dress suits tot church, visiting, etc., arc made of black or biim cloth with raised curled perpendicular lints*, or indented checks, or the basket-women good*, instead of the diagonals so long worn. Tlie whole suit made of this fabric costs SBS. The coat is the double breasted l’riuce Albert, with longer skirts than those of last a* ) the vest is single-breasted, with uoifogd collar, and buttoned high to wear with a scarf ; both coat and vest are bound l the pantaloons are of medium width, i aJj aped to the limbs. Some times the j singte-breasted cut-way Newmarket | coat, is preferred for this suit. By way I of variety, an extra pair of pantaloons is ! provided to wear with iuiagpat and vest. These are made of thick rongit-aurf.aced Scotch mixtures in shaded gray stripe*, or else grayish black grounds with white lines, or a taint suggestion of warmer color. Price, s2ff. DRIVING COATS. There is an effort to introduce for cat-1 riage wear the English driving coat of ! drab or cream-colored beaver. It is long and double-breasted, with collar of the same, and two rows of buttons down the front. FULL-DRESS SUITS. There is no change in full suits. They : remain of solemn black, with swallow tailed coat, low-rolled collar, and panta loons ail made from the same roll of broad-clotli. The English over-coat for opera and other full-dress occasions is the double breasted surtont. Instead of this light fitting garment, the preference here is for a loose, easy sack overcoat of light gray or creamy brown cloth. WINTER HATS, FURS, ETC. Dressy silk hats for gentlemen are taller than usual. Their crowns arc six and a half inches high, and of moderate b, 11 slgtpe ; the brims are two inches wide, with open D’Orsay curve, and not much roll. Price, $9. Undress hats for business are of still felt, with stiff crowns about five inches deep, and almost square; the brim is two ittefac* wide, and shaped like those just des< riwf for silk hats; price, $6. New soft felt slightly taper ing high crowns, with swyeil brim heavily rolled on the side*.- 'tbs hfi** quality cost $6. Black felt hate are mostly worn. A few of dark brown and I Loudon-smoke color are seen. Seal-eki» and other caps, collars and gloves arc Urn fashionable furs for gen tlemen. The fa>o*ife fur cap is a seal skin Canadian turban, Mt. as hatters say. a band turban. This £ high soft crown, with a wide stiff band or brim turned up ;»11 around close against the crown. They “o*d from $lO to $25. Seal trimming for dtpfpdlit* will he much worn this Winter, Ffcipj £ bor der or facing for the whole coat, Voh culls iuid collar of seal. Kutijre over coats and short double-breawtad jackets of seal-skin are also shown for mid* Winter. LINGERIE. There is no ck*gge in the fashion of shirt fronts. Double Umn bosoms, with three eords stitched a qipLrtpr of an inch from the edge and just outside the eyelet holes, remain popular for general use. A slight vine of very fine needlework is added for occasions, or else a medallion of embroidery is wrought around the studs. These bo soms are usually interlined, making them “ three-ply,” that they may retain the starch better, and are sloped half an inch narrower at the bottom than the top, to prevent breaking the mid dle. Such bosoms wear far better than those made with pleats. For conserva tive gentlemen, who have always worn pleats, aud wifi always wear them, no matter what is the fashion, bosoms are made with one wide plegt on each side of a box-pleat in the middle, or else two narrower pleats on each side, mak ing four in all The French yoke shirt is the favorite shape. Wamsutta or New York Mills muslin, with Richard son’s or Peake’s linen for the fronts, is the material for shirts. The Bazar has said these things before, but repeats them on account of recent inquiries of correspondents. Very high standing collars are worn in the English shape—made alf in one piece. Cuffs are very large and deep, and are sometimes turned over at the corners, or cut away, to match the col-, l&rs. SCARFS, NECK-TIES, ETC. The newest made-up scarfs is the Count Sclopis. This has a large square fold at the top, with two wide flat ends, Price, $2 50. This is in favor with demure elderly folk, while young gentle men prefer tlie “classic” scarf, with its very narrow sailor kr t and ends. Rep ped fabrics are most in vogue for such scarfs, and they are shown in all the quaint dark colors now worn by ladies; but these are unbecoming to many, and look ontre upon most men, and the safest plan is to confine a gentleman’s purchases to black or blue scarfs for gen eral wear, with white ami lavender for dressy occasions. Windsor ties of bias twilled silk or satin are shown in the English style, with dashes of white, or else Japanese figures on a colored ground. For midwinter days are cash mere mefflers, sqnares of blue or scarlet fine wool, with silk edges, for 82. Silken mufflers are 83 50 or 84. Long shawls for travelers are invisible plaits of gray, white and black; price, £l2. The strap to hold them is $1 25.— Harper's Bazar. ANIMAL SAGACITY. Instinct ot a Montana Mare. Tlie Virginia City Montanian says that Mr. John Fletcher, of Norwegian, owns an unbroken cayuse mare, which runs in j a pasture adjoining his house. The j mare "(which is very wild) has a young colt at her side. A few nights since, af- j ter Mr. Fletcher had retired, he was ' aroused by tlie mare coming to the win- | dow of his house, and by pawing, neigh ing, and in every way possible, trying to get his attention. This continuing for sometime, he got up and went out and drove her away and returned again to lied; bnt she immediately returned, and, if possible, increased her demoustra- j tions. He again went out, when the mare came up to him and rubbed her nose against him, although always ’ before she had been very shy of ] allowing any one to come within reach of her, then* rail on a few yards before him, continuing her neighing ; then, as he did not follow her, she returned to him, rubbing against him in the most demonstrative manner. He attempted to drive her off, struck her with a stick, and followed her a few yards to frighten her away. As soon, however, as he turned toward the house she returned ' and tried in every way to prevent him from doing so. He then remarked that j her colt was not with her, a fact he had not noticed before, as it was quite dark. It occurred to him then to follow her, j which he did. So soon as she saw lie was doing so she ran on before him, : stopping every few yards, turning | around to see that he was still fol lowing, then again running on, reach ed a distant part of the field, where | she stopped at an old ‘!prospect hole.” On eomming up with her she again com menced rubbing against him, and drew his attention to the hole, where he soon discovered the colt. It appears it had slipped into it and was unable to get out, and the mare had taken this method to obtain assistance. Being unable to get it out alone, Mr. Fletcher went for some I of liis neighbors, and with them re turned. While they were taking the little fellow out the mare manifested the most intense delight, and seemed al most beside herself with joy; and after ward, when the men had got out. of tlie hole, she came up to Mr. Fletcher, and placing her nose on his shoulder, gave every sign of gratitude that a human mother might under similar circum stances. A Mechanical Eye. No mechanic can ever attain distinc tion unless lie is able to detect ordinary imperfections at sight, so that he can see if things are out of plnmb, out of level, out of square, and out of proper shape: and unless lie can also detect dis proportioned or ill shaned patterns. This is a great mechanical attainment, I say attainment because it can be attained by any ordinary person. Os course there are defective eyes as there are other defective organs; the speech, for instance, is sometimes defective, but the eye is susceptible of the same training as any other organ. The muscles, tlie voice, the sense of hearing, all require training. Consider how the artist must train the organ of sight in order to detect the slightest imperfection in shade, color, proportion, shape, ex pression, etc. Not one blacksmith in five attain* the aft of hammering square; yet it is very essontial ill Ilia occupation. It is simply because he allows himself to get into a careless habit; a little training and care is all that is necessary for suc cess. The fapt is the eye is not half as much at fault us the heedless mind. Some carpenters acquire the careless habit of using a try square every time they plane off a shaving, in place of giving their minds right to their business and properly training their eyes ; and unless they cultivate this power of the eye, they ffijl always be at journey work. Look at foe well trained blacksmith ; he goes across tp*i shop, piphs the horse’s foot, takes a squint, reforms to liis anvil, forges the shoe, and it exactly tits tlie foot. Contrast him with the bungler who looks at the foot, then forges a shoe, then fits the foot to it, of ten to the UP 11 °t a tine horse. Now the fault lie* in' neypF ftjlpwing himself to put a shoe on that is noth) wopej: s h a P e for the foot j ha should iJpfolWßtP to make the shoe fit the foot in place of the foot fitting the shoe, and he should fol low it up until tlie object is accom plished. ... A very good way to discipline the mechanical is to first measure an inch with the eye, then p*n*P j t with the rule, then measure a half inch, then j eighth, and so on, and you will soon be ; able to discover at a glance the dif i ference between a twelfth and sixteenth 1 of ftp inch; then go to three inches, six, : tvyelye, sp4 SO on - Some call this j gnpssiugj foepe jy qq guess work about I it; it is measuring the ( 6>p ftf)d j mind. Acquire tlie habit of criticising for imperfections cy.ery piece q( work i that you see, do everything a# nearly as j you can without measuring (or spoiling | it), or as nearly as you can trust the eye > with its present training. If you cannot j a** filings mechanically, do not blame I the eye to, it’ it is no more to blame than the month i* we cannot j read, or the fingers because We sShn.'A write. A person may write a very good I hgpd with the eyes closed, the mind, of I coi»**s, directing the fingers. The eye is ! necessary, so detect imper ; sections. Every occupation in life requires a ; mechanically trained eye, and we 1 sjfonld realize, more than we do, the ; great impi/rtfince of properly training i that organ, J. E. E. Short Time Movement. The Man chester (England) Examiner has the fol lowing from a correspondent at Black burn, writing the 15tli nit: “In consequence of the high price of eoa) 4j)d the uuremunerative production of cotton sloth, added to the uncertainty of the new cotton crop, sevtri’Sl large spinning and weaving mills in Black burn have begun to run ’from light to dark’ to save gas. The short-time movement, it is expected, will iiecome general. In the adjoining town of Great Harwood there are 1,400 looms standing idle; and here, too, the prospects for the coming Winter are anything but en couraging," With respect of l>arwen, a boyrgspoml ent writes: “All the mills gontinue still to run full time, but there is a dis position on the part of many of the mill owners to dispense with the use ol gas as far as possible, owing to the coming Winter, and it is not improbable, taking info consideration the high price of fuel, that *ome gegepil understanding will be arrived at by the ettpfoyers in the town, so as to prevent the peimssity of lighting up.” A California Milkman.— ln the year 1855 or 1856, or thereabout, says the H'riil Valley Union , we knew a man iu Nevada bhp wjjo milked two or three cows, and who useq pep relk around the town and sell the lacteal fluid- tye (pgjr ried two cans on a wooden yoke, which Y 44 placed over his neck and shoulders. He l4e U'/tisiehpd since then, and now has land's‘ifnd bvrim.d ftstf ]p down in Monterey conn’-J- B° is £Lg£ge.J iu nrilkiug I.itXl .cows, an 4 he mates butter and cheese. Next Spring he will milk 1,500 cows. His cows are of excellent stock, consisting of Devon, short-horn and Alderney blood. The name of this successful milkist and ex- Nevada pity man is S. C. Abbott. His property ij ¥«$ r at $400,- 000, and we doubt nitich 4 h\ would sell out at that figure. A popysg Cjets Qut of the Coffin and Speaks yo jgjf —4 few days since a young lady of ‘ tis bana, Ohio, who had been ill a short tjjne, died, and the body was prepared by sor rowing friends and attendants for inter ment and placed in the coffin. The night before the day of the funeral, a number of young lady watehers were seated in a room adjoining that in which the coffin had been placed, when, great ly lg their oomrimation the figure of the dead girl bppeaf'&l before prim and spoke faintly. When the horrified at tendants had somewhat overcome 1 their fright, seeing that the supposed oorpse was really a thing of life, they took measures to care for their friend so startlingly restored to them almost from the very grave, and she received proper attention, and is now likely to recover. Mr. John Agnew, one of the oldest and best known builders of fire engines in this country, died in EliiLfdelphia, on Friday last, in tbe eighty-second year of his age. Many of bis band engines are still to be found in various sections of tbe country. TELEGRAPHIC SUMMARY. \V. Ishington, November 4.—ln Balti more, eleven of the eight hundred af fected street car horses are well. Fatal 1 cases are rare. Nearly all the horses in New York are stabled, on account of a cold rain storm. The only horses used in Boston yes terilay were those needed for hotel guests. The Common Council of Chicago meets to-day to pass an ordinance allow ing dummy engines on the street rail roads. The noted trotting horse, Springfield Boy, died in Springfield, Massachusetts. The messengers of the signal office there deliver probabilities afoot. Horses and mules, too, are affected there. A horse valued at 85,000, the property of Col. Rosele, of Arlington, had his leg broken bv a kick. In Washington no cars are running, and few hacks. There are comparatively few deaths Norfolk, November 4.—The laboring horses here are nearly all affected, and many in the surrounding country are disabled. The cars have stopped. Out ward bound mail and express matter failed to make the trains and boats for want of horses. New Y’ork, November 4, evening.— The disease is evidently abating. The | disagreeable feature of the epidemic is the number of carcasses in the streets— facilities for removal not being equal to the demand. Goldsboro, N. C., November 4. — The malady is here. New Y’ork, November 4, evening,— The malady is abating, and it is be lieved it will not last more than a week, j Charleston, S. C., November 4. —The malady is here. A majority of horses | and mules are more or less affected. Washington, November 5, noon.—- There are no street cars running to-day. Four thousand horses are sick. There are no signs of abatement of the dis- I ease. A cold rain fell at Chicago last night, and a number of deaths are reported. Oxen are doing the hauling there. Raleigh, N. C., November s.—The horse malady appeared at Wyan, Yancey & Co’s stables this morning. Haywood’s ; fine trotting mare, Fannie Haywood, and Loafer and Pomeroy are down with it. It is spreading rapidly, aud whole sale merchants and cotton factors have I ordered oxen from the country. Charleston, November s.—The horse malady is increasing, but of a mild type. New York, November 4.— At 12 o’clock to-day, the United States grand jury found indictments against Victoria Woodlilill and Tennie C. Claflin, who j were arrested on Saturday, charged with mailing indecent printed matter through the post. The prisoners were taken from Ludlow jail at 1 o’clock aud brought before Commissioner Osborne, who said j the indictments relieved him of the lie- j cessity of holding an examination. The I accused were visibly affected on hearing i ,f the indictments—Woodhull almost to tears. Claflin looked somewhat defiant. The counsel of the prisoners complained of the conduct of the Government in j pressing the indictment, pending ex- 1 animation, as a most arbitrary proceed-; iug, as the aeoused came prepared for ; the fullest examination. The Commis sioner ordered warrants following the indictments to be served upon the ac cused, and they were removed to jail in default of SB,OOO bail each. Stephen Pearl Andrews was arrested for complicity in the Woodhull-Claflin indecencies. New Y’ork, November 4. —At Confer-; cnee of the Baptist clergy of Boston and vicinity to-day, the committee un Close Communion reported ; First, That Christian Baptism is im mersion of the believer in water, in the name of the Father, Son and Holy Ghost, and is a profession of his faith in Christ. Second, That Christian churches ought to be composed of such regenerate per sons only as have been baptised on pro fessing of their faith in Jesus, Third, That the Lord’s Supper ought to be observed by Christian churches only. Fourth, That invitations of courtesy to pprtake of the emblems should be given to none but orderly members of churches properly constituted. Washington, November 4. —A letter was received at tlie Treasury Depart inept fois morning from the Collector at Stoniugtftti, Pqifoecticqt, ipipoupcing the arrival off that port of fte aojfoqqev Crown Point, on the 28th, with two cases of yellow fever on board. She is from San Domingo, with a cargo of sugar, dye woods, etc., for Boston. T4 e vessel was quarantined, Since then no one but the Health Officer has been allowed to visit her. One of the patients died, and the other is convalescent. No new cases are reported. After being quar antined and properly fumigated, she will proceed to her destination. Washington, November 4.

They seem to possess data from gentlemen of ail parts of tlie country which justified them in the result ami prospects now fully realized. The President to-day received calls of congratulation in addi tion to numerous telegrams of greeting, and also announcing the result. He expressed thanks to liis guests for these manifestations of friendship, and apart from the political issues iuvolved, was gratified that the people had vindicated his private character, which had been assailed duringlthe canvass. That there will be at least oye change in the Cabinet at the commencement of the next Presidential term there is no question. It is known that Secretary Fisli has repeatedly expressed his wish to be re lieved from the position of Secretary of State. This desire will be gratified at the end of the present term. There is no probability of a change of Attorney-General. Judge Williams re cently remarked to friends that although he could have been elected Senator from Oregon, he declined being a candidate, in order that he might remain 91 his present office. There is good reason for stating that any remarks with regard to the other members of the Cabinet would be mere speculation, but it may be said that the commissions of all of them will expire at the close of the present term, thus necessitating new commissions to those serving as Cabinet officers after the fourth of March next. It is too early to anticipate the Presi dent's action in the future concerning reforms aud measures of administration further than his intimation to-day that lie will endeavor so to shape his official conduct as to meet the expectations of the country, and to unite the people in stronger bonds of peace, while, by all means in his power, promoting their welfare at home and abroad. Classification of Fashionable Wo men.—A lively correspondent, writing from New -York upon the subject of fashionable women in that city, subdi vides them into six well-defined varie ties. First, we have the woman who wishes to combine fashion with theology and a condition of godliness, and who is always uncertain which of the two should be paramount. Grace Church and Fifth avenue are the termini of the little world of this class. “In one she worships, and in the other she is wor shipped,” neatly observes the dissecting' letter-writer. The next type is the litera ry woman of fashion, who makes books —the rarer and the more ancient the better—her hobby, and who discourses learnedly on authors of whom she knows nothing, or else knows only through newspapers and magazine criticism. “She is sure she would have adored Dante‘or Shakspeare,” says our social anatomist ; “and yet it will be revealed some morning that she is engaged to Mr. Simpson Sugarliouse, the wholesale grocer, and as Mrs, Sugarliouse she will drop her affectations and become the mother of matter-of-fact children.” Another variety of these charming enthusiasts is the musical won der of the unions —the young lady who, from the age of six, has had Bee thoven’s sonata}, Mozart’s masses, and Gluck’s figures drummed into her, and who renders them mechanically, and without in the least, comprehending their spirit; who plays pieces of her “composition,” which are believed to have been the work of her old German music master, and who frightens away suitors by dwelling too persistently upon octaves, staffs and counter points when she well knows that the young men have more taste for negro minstrelsy than for symphonies. Other types are the art belle, who has caught the infec tion of the prc-Rephoelite school, and who passes lipr time in chatting about the Olfi Master and in painting poor pictures • the benevolent women of fashion, with whom benevolence means to drive about in the poor districts—to the House of Industry, the Five Points Mission, the Newboy’s Home—and, al though without, any genuine generosity iu her composition, to make a great ado over her performances ; and finally, the misanthropic belle, pretty and cynical, who rails at the men and ridicules them, and finally ends by marrying one of then}. The IjxrßF.sfi RappEßy pi Richmond. —Of the daring midday robbery of the Southern Express Company's office in Richmond, Va., on last Thursday, the Dispatch gives the following account : One of the most daring robberies that has been recorded in the local columns of the Dispatch for some time occurred Friday morning, about 11 o’clock, on Main street, while the First Regiment Virginia Volunteers and their military guests were passing up town.
