VOLLME XI.-NUMBER 1774. CHARLESTON, FRIDAY MORNING, SEPTEMBER I, 1871. ^ EARLY FALL FASHIONS. A CHAPTER OF HEWS AND GOSSIP FOR THE LADIES. THE POLONAIS. Decidedh" the fall fashion tor costumes U the Polonaise, and this has assumed quite a new form. It does not sit quite tight to the ?gure. Oe the froat the shoulders and bust are flited perfectly, and the waist is just ont lined, but the seams do not keep quite close to the form, thus pi .venting that ridge which will always fo:d in at the point where corsage and skirt meet. The back presents a very an? tique st3le revived. There ls a seam down the middle as well as two side-pieces, and these three seams are stiffened wltn whalebone and continued to the extreme point of the pan? nier, where the fulness ot, the skirt is sudden? ly thrown out io two deep plaits, and then caught up and bunched In with two large bows. The Polonaise ls made quite long, ?nd also looped at the sides, so that the iront breadth falls ia deep folds. There is some? thing very novel and striking in the lorm of | this garment, and we shall, erelong, doubtless see our elegantes disporting themselves on Filth avenue in this singular revival of a very antique mode. COL Browns and purples are to be en r?jle for street wear during the coming season, and in the former half a dozen shades offer them? selves. Including the rich Van Dyke, clove, noyer. London aad russet. In purple, espe? cially becoming to brunettes, we have flamme de Vesure, nacarat, Humboldt, and the shades merging Into wine color. For evening wear the new silks appear in pale tints of blue, pink and green, siso saumon gris, trying to any but a perfect complexion. Full waists and plaited skirts are among the things that .were, for everything Is gored and tied back to Pfeake the skirt as plain as possible. The underskirt is made without even the smallest lurking fold, and the Marguerite polonaise, the last novelty, is looped some distance be? low the tighl-fliting waist. Loopings at the fc aide are very lull, but the backs ol all dresses, are half ba-qnes. so that over the pannier there is no fulness. Cretonne polonaises are be? coming popular, and these are looped with black velvet bows. Thlbets. lor autumn suits? are very pretty, being found in quiet shades of Russian gray, cypress green, and the new Van Dyke brown. Black ells continues to hold Its own, and cloths are also pushing Into favor. The season has not fairly opened yet, but from present indications prices are reason? able, and tr the buyer 'has merely, average taste and discrimination, pretty costumes are within the reach of the most modest income. CAMEO FAILLES. Among the many very elegant dresses Im ?orted thi3 season are exquisite soft silks, nown to mantuamakers as failles. They have a heavy reps, and yet are not In the least stiff, and these delicate fabrics come in "sections" or shades, three to ?very color, and all the colors so dainty, so subdued, that there is nothing in the least gaudy even in the blues and greens. For several years all the bright hijrs were so exceedingly bright that no well dressed woman would wear them on the street; and black became, in consequence, the most stylish wear for walkinz-dresses. Now, however, a line of gooqs is offered of such un? obtrusive tints that most beautiful promenade costumes can be formed from them. BISMARCK FAILLE. A very elegant dress in light Bismarck faille had the underskirt ornamented with a blas flounce lined with chestnut-colored satin, and set on In deep fla: plaits, so that at every told the upper edge was caught down, displaying the lining. The upper ?rarment consisted of i Polonaise in the style Just described, the cor sage ornamented with folds to imitate the plaited waists so much worn in the summer; the lower edge ot the skirt garnished with flat side-plaited mine, lined like the under Jaoucce. Bows of the minzled satin and silk I j ornamented tnt iront and' looped the Polo? naise. B0NNKT3. When gazing on the new Importations In bon? nets I could not but wonder who would have the audacity first to wear one of these extra? ordinary structure?, the style differs so decid? edly from any heretofore worn. The crown Is high and square, the Iront very flaring, and there ls somewhat of a cape at the back, alto? gether a much larcer head-covering than has appeared in several years. One Marie Antoi? nette opera hat was of a sort of faded saffron colored silk, the crown high and puffed, the Iront flaring, with a heavy white ruche inside, the trimming of biased bands of peach-colored plush. Another more civilized tookjng head? gear was ot black velvet, the frame psrrectly round; having a fall of black lace all about lt like a round hat, the crown high, with blas bands ot velvet and satin, and two blue feath? ers at the side. ROUND HATS. In veritable round hals I was shown one welch I was told was a "half gentleman's bat." What a "hali gentleman'', may be I have no idea; whether lt is a person who fre 3uer.ts Fifth avenue on Sunday, and adorns ie Bowery the rest ot the week, or whether there was in this name a covert satire at the "strong-minded," and this coiffure was in? tended especially to be worn by ladies who aspire lo vote, was not ezolaiued to me.

The Advertiser also says Eng? land will not join the United States because she was not consulted before the Rodgers's expedition was sent into Corean waters.

WASHINGTON, September 19. The Secretary of War to-day designated a court martial to try Hodge, the defaulting paymaster. General Meade is president ol the court. The general Ku-Klux Congressional ?om m it tee meet to-morrow. The sub committee have prepared a report, which only acts on the financial condition of the Southern States. The finances ot North and South Carolina, Georgia and Louisiana are reported in bad condition, willie In others there appears to be an improvement. The sub-committee will also report on the election laws In. the South? ern States, giving their most essential features. The general committee will to-morrow consid? er their future course ol action, involving the duestlons as to whether a sub committee shall. be sent South to take testimony, or whether lt shall be taken here. Attorney-General Akerman left for Raleigh on Thursday last, instead of Georgia, to attend to the proceedings in the United States Court there arising under the Klu-Klux act. On Fri? day he was in consultation with Judge Bond and Governor Caldwell, ot North Carolina. Thus far some three hundred arrests have been made, many of which have been based on the mere dictum of a colored witness, and which have In several Instances been lound to be cases of mistaken identity. Advices here indicate an attempt to Involve several of the Conservative officials ot'North Carolina In the so-called Ku-Klux conspiracy, with a view to their arrest and imprisonment, and the impression seems to be that many of these arrests are dictated aaa kind of political revenge on those who were open advocates for the impeachment and removal of ex-Governor Holden irom office. A battery of artillery and regiment of infantry are stationed at Raleigh to assist the authorities il called upon. The Supreme Court meets in October, when Chief Justice Chase will preside. Among the important cases to be decided ls one involv? ing the constitutionality ot the Income tax. TWO GEORGIANS SETTLE A QUARREL WITH TUE FISTOL. The Challenger Severely Wounded. [from the Augusta Constitutionalist, September 19th.] Saturday afternoon a rumor was circulated that two eren tie rn en of lids city. Messrs. Wm D'Antignac and John Dell, had had a difficulty rturlng the day, and that the affair was about lo culminate in a duel, a challenge having passed between the partie?. This rumor get? ting to the etfts of the police, an investigation ivas immediately instituted by them, the result ot which proved' the rumor to be correct. The gentlemen were accordingly arrested at once, and carried bet?re the proper officer, where they were required lo give bond lu $2000 each to keep the peace. The parties gave bond and were released. Those who knew of the affair then boped that it had been settled, and that no further steps would be taken. As it after? ward proved, however, these hopes were not realized. The whole affair grew out of a difficulty over some trivial maller, which ended in a challenge being sent lrom Mr. Dell to Mr. D'Antignac. Toe challenge was accepted by Mr. D'Antignac, and the -preparations were being made for a duel between the parties, wheu they were a-rested and required io give bond as above stated. By this, however, uiey were only debarred from righting in Georgia, and it was determined to carry out the orlgl final Intention somewhere in South Carolina, he seconds, after consultation, fixed upon Granltevllle as the proper place for the meet? ing, and Sunday morning, at S o'clock, as the time. In accordance with this arrangement, one party, consisting of Mr. D'Antignac, his second, Mr. J. Harriss, and a Mirgeon, Dr. DeSaussure Ford, proceeded to Granlte? vllle by the early morning train on the South Carolina Riilroad, while Mr. Dell, with his second, Mr. Ratcliffe, and his surgeon, Dr. Carter, went to the same place on the train of the Charlotte. Columbia' and Augusta Railroad. Several gentlemen from this city accompanied the party in order to try to effect a settlement ot tue difficulty without bloodshed. Arrived at Graniteville the parti were compelled to walt for daylight before measuring off the ground, and completing the arrangements usual on such occasions. During this lime the gentlemen who came along in the capacity ot peacemakers made every en? deavor in their power io reconcile the parties, but without avail. As soon as lhere was light enough the seconds proceeded to hunt out a suitaole spot for the encounter. This was se? lected within the limits of the Village of Granltevllle aud measured off. Some lime was spent in perfecting the other prelimina? ries, and at a Utile before 8 o'clock the princi? pals were placed in posilion and the weapons, navy revolvers, placed In their hands by their seconds. At this Juncture another effort was made to induce the parties to settle; but this also proved futile, and the duel accordingly Sroceeded. At the word both parties fired, tit. D'Antignac a little in advance of his an? tagonist. The bali from Mr. Dell's pistol passed through the breast of Mr. D'Antignac's coat, slightly grazing hi3 Hesta, while the latter's ball went wide of the mark, lt was now hoped that enough had been done to satisfy both gentlemen, and that everything would be amicably set? tled. This was not the case, however, as the challenger demanded a second fire, and the men were accordingly placed in position asrain. The signal was given, and both again fired. Mr. Dell's ball struck Mr. D'Antignac In very nearly the same place as the first had done, but without lnfliciiug any wound upon his per? son. Mr. D'Antignac's ball struck Mr. Deli's right itg Just below the knee, passing through into the fleshy part of the left leg through which it also ploughed its way. Mr. Dell was immediately looked alter bv his surgeon, and all hostilities ceased. Just at this time news was received on the grou. 'i that a warrant had been taken out by the South Carolina authorities for ihe arrest of the party, and they accordinijly separated and came back to the eily by different loutes. Mr. Dell was placed on a'litter and in charge ot the surgeons put on the next train lor Augusta, ? where he at last arrived faint and weak irom loss of blood. His wound, we understand, is of a very serious nature, but hopes are enter? tained that he will eventually recover without any ill ?consequences. The "bail passed very close to the lemoral arteiy, but lortunatelv did not injure it. We trust that we will be able in a few days to chronicle Mr. Dell's complete re? covery. ? The duel is the first which has been foucrht near this city In years, and, ot course, formed the chief topic ot conversation on the streets yesterday. The affair ls deeply deplored by the iriendsol both parties. Before this diffi? culty the two genlleraeu were on the best ot tpn?s, and had no idea that anything o:' the klud woukl ever happen. SF ARKS FROM TUE WIRES. -The weather throughout England is fair, and favorable to the crops. -Several wMte and colored men have been arrested at Little Rock, Arkansas, because of the disappearance of a negro who had been cohabiting with a white woman. TAMAATS DOWNFALL. PROGRESS OE MUNICIPAL REFORM I?' NEW YORK. The Change in the Comptroller's Office, and How it Came About - Ex-Mayor II a vt m yfsr Takes a Hand-The Effect of the Investigation-Latest Aspect? of the Case. As already indicated by our dispatches, the great struggle between the Tammany Ring and tbe people of New York, in the matter of the city Irauds, has endPd for the present be? t?re the courts, with a triumph for the oppo? nents of the Ring. This event has been fol? lowed up by some correspondence between ex-Mayor Wm. F. Havemyer and Comptroller Connolly, the result of which is the removal by the latter ot his deputy, Richard A. Storrs,and the appointment of Andrew H. Green, "with full powers to exercise all the duties of the comptroller's office." The lol lo win g is the substance of the correspondence, which was given to the New York papers on Saturday, the day of its occurrence: Ex-.Mnyor Havemyer and the Comp, trailer. Comptroller Connolly having, submitted to Mr. Havemyer certain questions as to what course he should pursue, tfie latter writes: On the assumption of your innocence of the charges made against you, I do not consider the resignation of jour office as your proper course. Your duty ls to give ev?ry facility to the fullest investigation, and abide the result. Second. In your answer to the request ot Mayor Hall, for your resignation, you have stated that yout official acts, which have been impeached, were supervised and approved by the superior vigilance ot Mayor Hall, that equal responsibility for them attaches to him, and that in his affidavit In the pend? ing litigation those acts were adopted and vindicated by bim. Even if you are conscious of having done wrong In your trust, you owe lt to the commu? nity, not to do another wrong, but to make every reparation in your power. To surrender your office in the hands of a confederate would be a fresh betrayal of your trust, and while lt might damage yourself, would fall in doing justice to (he community. No man selected by Mayor Hall can, without some moral support from the community, have the public confi? dence. He will be compromised by suspected understanding willi the "Rodin" of the ring. As the law now stands, he can assume your office only by an arrangement to which you are a party, to create a vacancy for him. The man you give place to ought not to be a tool of those Implicated in the transactions which ex? cite public distrust and alarm. He should be the nominee of thc citizens now seeking to protect the people. In that way alone cm he have the confidence of t lie public, or improve the credit of the city. Fortunately the law af? fords a perfect solution of the case. By section three ol'chapter 614, laws of 1871, you are authorized to appoint a deputy comptroller, who shall, In addition lo his other powers, possess every power and shall perform every duty belonging to the office of comp? troller, whenever said comptroller shall, by due written authority, designate and author? ize said deputy comptroller to possess the power and perlorm the dtity aforesaid. My ad? vice lo you ls to forthwith appoint Andrew H. Green as such deputy comptroller, and to leave him to exercise the full powers ol your office, without conditions and without Interference, with complete custody of all books and papers belonging to your office, wilta the appointment ( ot all persons whom he may think necessary to protect the public property and interests, and to enable him to curry out the most searching investigation, and to aid the com? mittee appointed tor that purpose. I have ' carefu.lv considered the selection I have re- t commended. Mr. Green nas knowledge ana t experience In th.. affairs of the city, has a most ( reliable character for integrity, lias no rela- . lions which could mislead him by bad influ? ences, and is strong in the public confidence. If you adopt my advice, I shall insist on his ac? cepting the disagreeable duty lor the sake of I the public Interests. I The Comptroller's Reply. Mr. Connolly, In reply, "yields to the force 1 of lae suggestions" in M-. Havemyer's letler, and adds : I have determined to accept and favor the advice it offers. In thus acting I am governed < ? by a warm desire to restore the city depurt- ; ment over which I preside to the confidence of the community, and to secure such an examl- 1 nation ol' the affairs ol' the city as will satisfy i the Just demands ot the public. I have, there- i fore, appointed Andrew H. Green to the office ( of deputy comptroller, believing his known , character for'ability and integrity, fortified by your approbation, will furnish abundant as? surance that the financial administration ot , the city will be satisfactory, and will enable the department to command the necessary funds at once to discharge it- obligations to i the laborers upon our public works, lorming as they do the most meritorious class of the ? city's creditors. Effect of thc Injunction. Judge Barnard, in conversation wita a re? porter ot the Tribune, said: My duty was so clear that I could not escape it. the responsibility of my decision, affecting as it so seriously does flie government of our city, ls with the men who huve stolen the money of the taxpayers. 11 does not rest on the administration "ot the ?aw. They have no alternative but to do what they believe to be their sworn duty. The theory that Mr. Con? nolly is only partly responsible, is absurd. The whole responsibility for signing the warrants rests on him. The mayor certainly counter? signed them, but I do not believe the mayor, by any exercise ol human endurance or men? tal vigilance, can sustain anything like thoroush supervision of the comptroller's ac? counts." any more than President Grant can exercise a thorough supervision over the ac? counts of the national treasury. The execu? tive must give a cer.aln allowance of rope to its subordinates. ' Reporter. Can this perpetua! injunction be In any way dissolved ? Judge Barnard. It can. but not until the general term of the Supreme Court, which meets In December. But, practically, the peo? ple have already got every remedv the law can grant. Reporter. Is there any possible escape for the city authorities Irom the legal effects of this injunction ? Judge Barnard. None whatever; it is Im? possible. No, the people, through the law courts, have completely stopped any possibili? ty ot further stealing. When the present crisis is past the city government will go on as usual, but it will have been purified. Reporter. What is the exact bearing of your decision ? Judge Barnard. That 'he Injunction shall continue In force pending the decision of the board of apportionment. The Latest-By Telegraph. NEW YORK. September ID. A meeting of Democrats who are opposed to Tammany Hall was held last evening, heinz presided over by Samuel G. Courtney, the district attorney under President Johnson. Among those present were the Hon. Ben Wood, ex-Sheriff O'Brien and Congressman Roosevelt. General GPO. B. McClellan declined to accept the office of comptroller, because he would thereby, under the existing circumstances, be? come a contestant for the position. Had Mr. Connolly resigned he would, under certain stipulations, have accepted. Comptroller Connolly and deputies have doubled the guards and barricaded the doors to his office. Charles O'Conor, at the request of L. J. Tilden, gave a written opinion that Connolly, by the appointment of a deputy to perform all his functions and exercise all his power*, reali v abandons his office; but that this appointment Is In strict accordance with law. Nothing but judicial action can set aside Connolly's rights. The law confers no right of removal upon Hall, either expressly or by Implication. The committee of seventy ha3 just held a meeting und adopted resolutions sustaining Mr. Green. The latter has issued a notice that Hie Interest on the bonds and stocks ol the corporation falling due on November I will be paid by the city chamberlain In the new court? house on that day, and that the transfer books will be closed on Wednesday. The letter from Richard O'Gorraan to Mayo- Hall gays, In rela? tion to the action of the latter concerning the matter of the comptroller's office, he eJdould be governed more by consid? erations ol expediency and sound policy than by those ot merely strictly right or legal power. He cannot advise the mayor to take any step that may lead to complicated litigation. He ?Avises him to treat Connolly as comptroller. If he does not think him en? titled to All the office de jure, to treat him as comptroller de facto. This course, he thinks, will prevent financial difficulties, and the con? tinuance of that public excitement and sense of insecurity which a prolonged legal contro? versy would Intensify.
