Tilting Hoops and False Calves. Much has already been written, and much vemaitsto be written, about one of the late innovations made in ladies' apparel, so far at least as regards a speciality-'&W)ps. Last winter, we read in Northern papprs a great deal in reference to skatin car:iivals, and other recreations too numerou., to nientmIi, t all of which v t-e presented scenes that astonished the "olest inhabitats," for in such large assemblages it was a thirg hitherto frknown-the striking uniformily and won derful symmetry exhibited in the persons of 'he ladies. As in the olden times there were exceptions to the general rule, so the elderly ones expected to find exceptions at this day. Their expectations were vain. Now, how or why this should be, no one could con jecture. The curious proceeded at once to the unraveling of the mystery, and their in quiries resulted in the discovery that "false 41-es" had been imported into this country, and were being worn by ladies of the class called elite. They are of two kinds. One is stuffed with 'hair-the other with sawdust; the latter, of course, being the cheapest. Speaking of these,the Cleveland PlZindealer, of a late date, says: "Yesterday afternoon, a young lady with tilting hoops and false calves was preambula ting through the park, when suddenly one of the calves burst. Our readers can imagine the result. The poor young lady could be traced by a trail of saw-dust from Rouse's block to the post office. ( Excuse a tear) Thus the maiden who entered the park in form resembling the Venus do Medicis, and emerged therefrom in a state of spindle-shank ed angularity; her great mistake consistcd in not getting hair calves-they being less liable to burst, and ona more pliable nature. Be lieve us, dear ladies, if you will wear the new tangled improvements on nature's pattern, that the hair style is the cheapest. W e pre sume the young lady fainted when she learned the extent of her misfortune. But, as an exchange says, what's the use of railing at falee calves-they are a mere matter of form. Thi's is but one of the hundred jeers to which the women of the country have been subjected, and will still subject themselves, by adopting and adhering to every miserable fashion which may be introduced. Tilting hoops come in for an equal share of newspaper notices, and furnish to newspaper critics an exhaustless theme upon which to exercise that faculty. They have aroused the righteous indignation of the clergy. In New York city, a few Sabbaths ago, one of the Jesuit Fathers, connected with the Church of St. Francis Xavier, in Sixteenth stret, spoke his mind freely on the use of them. The correspondent of the Louisville .Deio crat says: "He admonished the female portion of his eongregation that they must give up the abominationt altogether, or cease to come to the confessional. N othing half so .immodest or immoral had ever been witnessed in Ne w York before. A stranger might be forgiven * the suspicion That our wives and daughters were all turning courtezans. "He did not know what the fashions were at the theetre or opera, because he did not go - to such places ; but he could not sh ut his ev es - - to the nuisance, as it existed before his eves, in front of God's holy altar. He was deter mined to abate it so far as the Church of St. Xavier was concerned ; other clergymen could do as they liked. This clerical blast against the garment in question created an immense aensation. A party who manufactures them, -in order to protect his business, has hired a Protestant preacher to deliver a lecture im favor of it. He proposes to show that the tilting hoop is conducive to health, comfort and- cleanliness, and as "cleanliness is next -skin to godliness," he will be preparcd to dec monstrate that the allegation as to immorality is all moonshine. So you see, there are two sides to the question. It's a delicate one, at least, and perhaps it is better tha't the parsons .aboiuld deal with it.." ?Frntence, the witty E-biter toarvs of the .Tournal, warmly defoads the style of hoops denounced by the New York Jesuit, on tihe ground that.it enahles the common penple to - ee a great deal moe of society thtan has been ther privilege. - We have thrown this and that together in this writing-reserving our own opinion, in ebedience to that good old German adage: Speech is silver, but silence is gold. The very latest style of dress is that adopted by the Iadies of Lansing, Michigan. It is said to consist of cloth pants like those worn by men, and an old-fashioned Indian "tWampus" or sack, which comes just above the knees. The dressing hangs from the shoulders, doing away with tight lacing, and is alleged to be conducive to health. By its adoption hoops and skirts will be discarde J. It decreases tbe lady in quantity about 200 per cent. Now, ladies, those of you who have fallen into the way of these other much-abused fashions, do please don't adopt this last. Don't abandon your first estate, by becoming heathensint dress. f Augusta_Ch4ronie!e and &ntine!. MANUFACTREs.-Among the many induce ments which otyer themselves to the Southern people to engage in the manufacture of their leading staple, (and we have already noticed a number of them,) there is still another to which we would direct attention, and that is the proposed tax of five cents per pound on cotton. The iniquity of this proposition will be more fully understood when we reflect that it is an export tax. The South may ship her -cotton to New England spindles and looms -without paying the tax, thus not only depri ving her people of important return cargoes - for their cotton, but actually giving the Low elI factory kings the advantage of five cents per pannd over the for-eign buyer and manu facturer. The radicals, in thecir wild career of legisla tion, are over reaching themselves. Five een ts a pound will go far to defrany the expenses of manufacturing the raw mtercial on the spot where it is grown, and of course, this addituon al incentive to our people to engage in this new branch of industrial pursuits is so patent - -* and self-evident, that it does not require much elucidation. "Let 'or rip," as a Mlobile paper said the other day ; the South in the end, will be the gainer from all such foolish legislation as that now being hurried up by the radicals in Congress.- Col. Phioen ix Anna Cora Ritchie, in a letter fronm London, says: "The faded beauties which cling to their vanished charms have taken great interest in the sudden rejuvenation of Miss Burdett Coutts, under the hands of the wonderful 'Restorer,' Madame Rachel. Miss Coutts, it is said, had to pay ?400 before she commenced the baths with which the process of rejnvenating begins. After going through the regular course cf treatment, Miss Coutts dawned upon the fasn ionable world with the 'layers of some twenty birthdays' rolled off fromt her person. Her hair not dyed, but restored and growing anew ; her defective complexion fair and soft-the lines- whieh-tellsuch tales of the workings of .he human het nmd hunan brain imcothed An English Opniin. The Lnndon Times, speaking of General Lee's examination before the "Reconstruction Committee," says: It would be superfluous to expatiate on the spirit and temper revealed by such inquiries as these. If the South is not to be re-admit ted into the Union untilquestions of this kind can be answered to the satisfaction of the Rad ical nartv, it is manifest t ia the Union will never be reconstructed at all. The utmost can reasonably he expected from a people sit uated like the Virginians in such a political conformity as General Lee declared to exist. It is barely twelve months since these men were engIged in one of the most desperate vars of modern times--a war fonght out to "the bitter end" witi every circumstance and passion and fory. To expect that they should now look with positive atfection on their con querors, condemiin their most eminent country men as traitors, and repudiate as abominable the principles for which they sacrificed their fortunes and staked their lives, is beyond all reason. It is enough if they know themseIves beat en, if they accept the result without reserve, if they cherizh no idea of deferred rebellion, and if they are prepared to return to their for:ner position with a resolution to perform all their duties as citizens, and with a readi ness to receive the warning impressions which time and. interconrse may bring. These are actually the feelings with which General Lee describes them as now animated. More, it must be evilnt. could not be expected, but if more is desired it is manifest that the result caIn only be secured by the very policy which the President has avowed, and which the Radi cals are so frantically opposing. If something is still to be done-need deny-before a Vir zinian can look upon the Union as he looked ten years ago, it can be accomplished, as Gen 1eral'Lee affirmed, by liberal and conciliatory, condict on the part of the Government. If passive acquiescence is to be converted into cordial sympathy, it must be kind and generous treatment. The policy of the Radi cals is stultificd by their own professions. They pretend to desire a more sympathizing South than they have already got, and then in order to improve Southern feeling, they propose to inflict political disgrace and hu miliation on the Southern people. They pro nounce them to be still disaflected, or not suf fici_ntly well affected, and by way of concili ating them would condemn them to alienation and outlav -v. Such a policy stands self-con victed, for its only result must be to make bad worse. It is not probable that a Virginian looks up on the Government of the Union exactly like a New Englander ; no reasonable person would expect that he should do so. It is enough for the purposes of prudent reconstruction if the States lately in secession have abandoned all ideas of ind~ependence, and are prepared to make the best of their position as members of the Union once more. The rest must neces sarily be a work of time, but it will be accom plishied most speedily, as well as most surely, through such a policy as the President advo cates. HeI does not desire to swamp the South with a swarmx of b!ack voters, nor to place the negro in a position of invidious or peilous antagonmsm toward the white man. le asks only for civil professions of political hoesty. He stipulates that the Southern States shall forego their views of secession, ac knowledge and confirm the abolition of slave ry now and forever, deal fairly with the enfran clised slaves, and repudiate the debt contract ed for the purpose of the rebellion. To these conditions the~y are willing to assent, and the President would open the doors of Congress to them and so restore the Union. What his opponents desire, or profess to desire, we may collect from the exaniination to which Gene ral Lee was subjected. They demand impossibilities, for- it is simply absurd to require that the South should hum bly and thankfully kiss the rod after the fash ion they prescribe.. The policy of the Presi dent, o~n the other.hand, is a policy not only of moderation, but of promise. It bids fair to bring hack the South to those sentimnents of perfect concord which the Radicals pretend to demand. It is General Lee's opinion that such a policy, aided by the indispensable co operation cf time, will really produce this ef fet, but it needs no argument to show that a poliv of provocation and oppression contin ued after victory must intensify and perpetu ate that very hostility which it is intended to! extinguish.

R. to take back his "cussin'." Hear the latter: ViLLmIors.-Some wretch entered the sleep ing apartment-of a Printer on Satur-day night, and stole most of his wardrope, mneluding a sit of new clothes. A man who could do such a thing as that would steal the headstone from Ils mothers's grave to knock out his father's brains. Hie would borrow a key from his mother-in-law to unlock his wife's toilet that he may steal her pin money. He would steal an orange from his sick baby if he could Isell it for two cents. Mr:v his head be taken for a foot ball and the biance of his carcass for a scare-crow. May he nave the itch, the measles, and the smll pox all at once. May the suit cling to him like the shirt of Nessus and sting him wth the stings of ten thousand scorpions. Ma the cholera riochet through his intestines tillhe howls like a mad bull. May he have the toothache, the headache, the earache, the other ache, neuralgia and all other ills that flesh is heir to. May he grow pot-bellied. May his nose turn up, his mouth get twisted, his hair and whiskers turn to little snakes. May hornets build nests over every door and window in his house. May all his chineys refuse to draw, his wife scold and his children squall. May his pickles all he sweet and his sugar sour. May all his whiskey be made of rotton sorghum and his lager beer be mean as garbroth. May every dollar he puts in his pocket burn a bole in it and get lost. May his creditors be as thick as skippers in fly-time, and his debtors as scarce as doodles in DJe cember. May' no rain fall on his potatoe patch, his pea-vines grow green persimmons and his snap beans grow emetics. May twins be born~ un to him and a cow-hide given to each to lash thiir father with. May he be comn pelled to teach a negro school through the month of August May he be allowed to read nothing but Harper's Weekly, New York.Tri anie, and Brownlow's WFlig. May he join the Radicals. May he have the Poll-Evil, the Kings-vil, and legion of devils, and when he dies may his starvehing soul be metcmpsycho sized into a yellow cat and be worried by a stump-tailed egg-sucking sheep-killing dog. - - - + - - - - StcIDE OF A SUPPosED SoN oF NAPOLEON! One Ernest Graf, a valet de place, drowned himelf recently at Dresden. He was sup -ose o ha ben a son of Napoleon I. and STUDYiNG POLITICS UNDEit DIFFICULTIS. An old farmer in the interior of Ohio writes to the Cincinnati Commercial, among other readable matters, the following, which is too. good to he lost, and too true to be forgotten: One day, some time ago, John had been to the station for me and brought hone a paper I that was filled with a great many 1p'eeches, that had been made about a bill that our Presi dent had seen fit to disapprove of. Well, I took the paper to my corner, and although, it was all in very small print and tried my eyes very much, I read it every bit. My good wife got tired of my forever sitting there, pouring over those long "borations," as she termed them, and said that I would do well to be reading my Bible more, and such pro ductions less. "'Wife," said I, "the kingdom of heaven isn't in any particular danger just I now, but my country is." After that she said nothing more about it to me. But the more I read in that paper the more bothered I became. I read a long speech by Mr. Henry Beecher, who seems to know so mu h about every thing but divinity, and I liked it. because he su pported our President, and our President, I thought, must be in a very trying position now-a-days. Then I was upset by Mr. Phillps, who went into Mr. B., like I have seen little boys attack hornets' nests in the winter time. "If such men differ," said 1, "who will decide ?" I had always before thought these two would agree though the earth split. TRen I turned over the leaf wrong and com menced on the latter part of somebody else's speech. I liked it so much that I read on and on until I finished it. -,Surely," said I to myself, "surely we have got one good and true m'an in the land." The tone of the speech reminded me of the good old-fashioned "farewell address" of General Washington, and I thanked God and took courage. Then I hunted up the begining of the speech, and could not believe my eyes when I saw Alex. H1. Stevens' name to it. I thought it must be Thaddeus Stevens, as he was "Union," though the composition was very much unlike the style of the gentleman from Pennsylvania. "Wife," said I "look here ; my glasses are a little Jim; is that Alex. H. ?" "Alex H.," said she. "Not Thaddeus," said I. "Not Thaddeus," said she. "Is the last name spelt with a 'v,' or with a 'ph ?'" "Ph," said she, "and what are you reading rebel speeches for, I'd like to know. le's the Slice President of the Confederacy, and ought to be hanging to a sour apple tree instead of being loose and making borations." [My wife is a little nebulons about names and titles, but is a thorough-going Union woman, and hates rebels with a perfect batred. She was chairiman of an aitl society during the war, and many a :ime I've waked up in the night and found her still sitting by the dying fire, knitting socks for the poor soldiers who were "a lying out on the cold ground with nothing but their knapscats and pontoons to cover them."] Then I found that the speech was addressed to the Georgia Legislature, and I knew that "Thad" would never take the trouble to tell erring people how to go right, though he is great on abusing them when they go wrong.
