to 434 in 18G4;and in fifteen yea
the divorces have equalled OE
twentieth the number of families

18G3-64 was caused by tho marria
of soldiers to abandoned wonie
when about to start for the war,
that their new wives might draw t
State bounty.

We extract, for the benefit of the
ladies, the fashions letter of the Now
York Her, I, dated Paris, August 3:
I um a fr; dd your readers will think
I am taking a great liberty with their
emotions when I announce the com?
ing fashions; but wherever a dire
event is anticipated, I have over
thought it more satisfactory to know
tho worst than live in suspense.
Moreover, it.is universally true that
ill news travels fast; so that any well
meant delicacy of feeling on my part
would be superabundant and fastidi?
ous.
Headers, I therefore impress on
you the necessity of keeping calm
while you learn that we are all before
autumn to go about in skirts as nar?
row and tight as we can conveniently
walk in, and ?hat next winter we aro
to look like Mesdames Becamier, Tai
lien, Abranles, icc. A crowd of his?
torical ?associations aird absurd souve?
nirs somewhat eonfuse my brain,
while these names drop from my pen
on paper. A phantasmagoria of fe?
male figures arise in white satin
skirts,- cut umbrella shape, (with thc
handle downwards, and not a fold to
hide the anatomy of humanity.) I
fancy I.see some in leg-of-mutton
sleeves; others with their waists en?
circled by bolts just under their arm?
pits, and the heads of all surmounted
hy turbans voluminous enough to
content the elevated ideas of a Mus?
sulman. All these ladies sidle up
and down a well-lit drawing-room;
the thin ones all angles, as if their
members were hung on wires; thc
fat ones intent on defeating sponta?
neous combustion! They stand up
in a circle, each led to the dance by a
cavalier in yellow leggings, a sky-blue
coat and brass buttons, with his head
only just perceptible under the two
towering points of an incredible shirt
collar.
Both geutlemeu and ladies bow-as
low as thc "conveniences" ami the
nature < f their upper clothing allow,
after which preliminaries two guests
advance alone aud slide through a
minuet, the lady curtseying a great
deal and performing the feat of bend?
ing her arms gracefully over her head
without splitting her gloves at the
elbows. The gentleman, meanwhile,
has to do the smiling part and a vast
amount of pantomimo with a three
cornered hat ; his blue coat tails dc
not flap till the end, when the accele?
rated tuotion of the dnuoe demands ii
certain display of energy. When
these two have sufficiently edified tin
bystanders, either seated or standing
on a ring to admire their evolutions,
others volunteer, and a <j<tr<>i follows,
each party dancing in cadenee, tur?
bans and all. Bon-bons then circu?
late, with glasses of sugar and water,
and at this point, without the help o!
any stronger refreshments, my deli
rium increases. I seo Robespiern
and Marat rush in, Roche and Char
lotte Corday follow; all join in au an
achronism which is nothing less thai
the wildest can-can. The absurdity
of- Robespierre's action startles me
I awake to reality, and discover tha
the future fashions have carried nu
so far back that I am forgetting tin
present, though I have ample matte
for earnest discourse. I must mak<
an effort to recall my scattered senses
The cacho-traine, or new crinoline
which I described in my last, has
this week, been introduced to th
Parisian public by one of their fashioi
pasters. This leads mo to say that th
real fashions have, on other occasion
besides this, been conveyed to Ne\
York, through the columns of th
Herald, before tin- French have know,
of their existence. It was so with tb
Neapolitan catalan, it had been won
herein high quarters, and kept 1>
milliut-rs in reserve for the elite ol sc
ciety, long before any mention wn
made of it in tin- best publications o
"/cs- modes." This catalan hus bee
much improved; it is now nothin
but a square of maize-colored or j<
beads, with a few rows of the sam
under the chin and over the chiguoi
Strings are discarded from all th
now shapes; circular fulls of blond
and lace ure worn instead.
The new bonnet is called "oubli.
It is a very diminutive chapeau, ii
deed, nothing buta round of goffore
straw, edged with violets, lila?
heartseases, or any other flower sui
ing the toilet it is worn with, lt
tied under the chignon, and has bec
named oubli because it is as light an
thin as thal flat biscuit which we cn
wafer, and which wc generally discu
over ices.
The jockey costume is another ne
favorite. It is composed of two skir
in two different colors. The und
petticoat and jerkin can be blue, tl
over-skirt and sleeves light gray.
I have noticed several very lad
like fourreaux, which were notloopi
up over nnder-petticoats. One ol' thc
was made of black and white strip?
taffeta, with white cluny over bla<
ribbon round the bottom, up tl
seams and on the shoulders. Anoth
was made of emerald green moil
trimmed with thick white silk co
up each yearn. Tlie.se full dress rob<
in scanty proportion, do not look
singular as those, which I have se'
in muslin and light materials.
We aro now in an agc of transitio
which means anarchy. Shepherdess
in Watteau costumes flit by one i
the Bois in open carriages, and i
calls Boucher's paintings. Ladies
powder and lace revive all our Poi
padorur souvenirs, tho jerkin? ai
feathered caps or "toques" remii
us of Francis T. Hair is in great c
limul. Let none who aro called be
complain if as many as three ha:
still persist in growing to tho centre
of that shiny Burface which they con?
ceitedly call their crowns. These
three struggling hairs constitute capi?
tal. They will fetch any price some
day,' and must be coaxed into brist?
ling up straight.
Before I close my letter, I must
enter into a few explanations of terms
used in Paris for certain articles of
dress, without which your readers
would fancy themselves in the dark.
A cemture tallien or tallien belt is
nothing but a long broad plaid or
chine sash. The ceinture russe (Rus?
sian belO is made of black corded
silk, with ends, or rather tails, on
each side, a rosette behind; and Rus?
sian clasp in front. Aceinture espag?
nole (Spanish belt) has three tails be?
hind. The Lauzun trimming means
flowing loops of ribbon on the shoul?
ders. These are newest accessories. !
Vandykes and festoons are seen on
everything.
Legal Effect of th? Proclamation.
The New York Worid, of the 21st, ,
has the following remarks on this
subject:
The proclamation of President
Johnson declaring the insurrection at
an end in all the States, is a com?
plete abdication of all the extraordi?
nary powers with which the Presi?
dent was clothed by Congress, dur?
ing the war. This consequence
would have attended the previous
proclamation, only that did not in?
clude Texas; and the insurrection
having been regarded by Congress as
one whole, and not as a series of
separate insurrectos in several
States, the extraordinary powers did
not expire so long ? there was any
plac? where the insurrection had trot
been declared extinct. There were
only eleven States that seceded; but
in consequence of this local insurrec?
tion, con?ned to one section of the
country, the President Avas empow?
ered by Congress to suspend the
habeas corpus throughout the United
States, or any part of them, and this
power was vested in him till the end
of the rebellion. But Texas having
completed the construction of a
loyal State Government, and the
President having declared the insur?
rection at an end in that State, as
well as in all the others, the whole
system of military interference with
the regular course of law falls to the
ground, and things revert to the
condition in which they were before
the war.
And now that the hideous system
has ended, wc defy any man to look
back upon its history, and point out
an instance in which arbitrary ar?
rests, overriding court? by martial
law, and shutting np newspaper
offices by files of soldiers, accom?
plished the slightest good, or has?
tened, by a single day, the successful
termination of the war.
The New York World, of the same
date, in its comments, says:
The work is now complete as far as
Executive authority goes and the
condition of the States is concerned.
Thc proclamation of the President
hus the effect of law, and all are
bound to respect it as such. As the
Executive power of the Republic, he
is tho proper authority to judge of
the condition of the country. It is
the duty of Congress itself to accept
and act upon his official declaration.
Information Witiitcit.
Tho New York Herald wants some
information from Secretary Stanton,
before he retires from his post. It
says :
Secretary Stanton, it appears, is
about to exchange bis position at the
head of the War Department for a
foreign embassy. Before he is turned
ont of office and takes his departure
for Madrid, we hope he will send us
the report of Gen. Smith and James
T. Brady, which he holds, relative to
the condition of affairs in Louisiana
during the war. We are anxious to
know particularly all about the man
I agement of the cotton question and
the ingenious method by which C?en.
Butler managed to effect an exchange
with tho rebels of provisions, percus?
sion caps and other* little things-of
which they stood much in need about
that time-for rebel cotton, and what
became of the cotton thus received in
exchange. There are a good many
other details of this kind in connec
' tion \>ith thc management of affairs
in Louisiana upon which Mr. Stan?
ton can enlighten the public by fur?
nishing us with the report of Gen.
Smith and Mr. Brady; for instance,
the facts connected with Gen. Banks1
Red River expedition. There is an?
other pretty extensive cotton specu?
lation involved in that affair. Gen.
Banks, it seems, suffered a great de?
feat on the Red River; but if he lost
a good many men, it is said that he
got a good many bales of colton,
which might counteract tho loss of
j life in the estimation of the radicals.
Then there is a good deal of curiosity
about the late New Orleans riots
which tho radicals concocted and
with which it is supposed Gen.
Banks had a good deal to do, and he
was evidently well informed in ad?
vance of what was about to take
place and hiuted in a speech in Con?
gress at tho results which were after?
wards rccomplished.
Gen. Joseph R. Davis, of Canton,

A ITO rt and Confessions of thc Mur?
derers of Dlr. A. I). Walker.
Tlae obscurity which ba? for several
weeks enveloped the persons con?
cerned in the mordor of our fellow
citizen, Mr. A. D. Walker, has nt
length boen satisfactorily dissipated.
The freight train, of the 18th inst?
brought up from Columbia two negro
men, Belton Kline, filias Williams,
and London Jones, alias Adams, tho
former of whom had been arrested
in Peterobiirg, Va., and the latter in
Columbia. S. .C., on suspicion of
having been implicated in the above
murder. On the 19th inst., they
were brought before the jury of
inquest and there made the follow?
ing voluntary confession, although
warned that thc evidence would be
made uso of against them on their |
trial:
On Sunday, July 22, they met al
white niau, one Bill Morris, alias \
Charles Uerem, alias Wylie Morris,
with whom they had been acquainted,
who asked them to accompany him
to Chester the same night to assist in
some "job," from which they would
probably each realize $500 or ?1,000.
They arrived in Chester by tho even?
ing train, purchased a bottle of wliis- ;
key and set out for Walker's resi- ]
dence, Urbich they reached about 10
o'clock. Morris then prepared some ;
strings, telling th? negroes that Mr. j
Walker liad charged him with horse
stealing, and that he intended to tie
him up, whip him and leave him tied
all night. He also stated that then
were ??O.OOO in the house. In the
meantime, Morris, w ho was known ,
by the deceased, had disguised him- ?
self by blacking his face. As prc
viously related, Mr. Walker was !
induced, by the representations of j
London, to visit the supposed Hick
! man, iii company with Mr. Estes. 1
I The party were joined on the road by i
I Belton, Morris being concealed in !
I the bushes. At a given signal from ;
Morris, London seized Mr. Walker,
I while helton attempted io grasp Mr.
I Estes, who succeeded in escaping, j
Beltontbeu returned to tho assistance1 j
j of London and held Mr. Walker
; until Morris emerged from thc woods ;
I and shot tho deceased through thc1
j head. London, in the meantime, !
had pursued Mr. Estes as far as Mr. j
Walker's house. After the perpetra?
tion of the murder. Morris told Bel
I ton to go up to the house and, with
j London, secure the money, while he
! would return, cut the telegraph wiro '
I and meet them at Co ru well's Station.
?This Helton did aud, together, they
j broke o]>e:i the door, London dis
I charging his pistol at Mrs. Walker,
who Wits sittingup in bcd alarmed hy
j the noise. They then ransacked the
, house at their leisure, uttering threats
j and abusive language, and after re
! maining three-quarters of an hour,
1 withdrew, warning Mrs. Walker and
J Mr. Estes not to leave the building,
i as guards had been stationed around
the premises. On their return they
I searched the corps?; anti discovered
two dollars and a pocket book con?
taining papers. On reaching the
? depot, they secreted themselves under
a car until the arrival of the train
for Columbia. They were joined by
Morris at Coruwell's Station, and a
; division of the plunder was made,
' Morritj. giving to the negroes a gobi
'. watch and chain, which Ix? had re?
moved from the body of Mr. Walker.
Two or three days afterwards. Morris
proposed to the prisouera a trip to
! Newberry, to assist in another "job;"
', which resulted in tho murder of Mr.
: Lane, of that District. This tho
I prisoners declined to do; since which
time, according to their statement,
they have seen nothing more of
: Morris. Shortly after they went to
I Petersburg, Va., and after a few
daysfitay, London returned to Colum?
bia, when- he was arrested last week
I by Mr. (?reen, the efficient chief of
police, with Mr. Walker's watch in
his possession. Belton remained in
j Petersburg, spending money lavishly,
aud was arrested hythe son of Mr.
Lane, on suspicion of having been
I concerned in his father's murder.
Helton had ii large trunk filled with
I new aiul valuable clothing, and was
; to have been married the day after
j his arrest to a negro girl in Peters?
burg, to whom he hail presented
I several handsome silk dresses.
According to their own admission,
these negroes have been concerned iu
no less than three murders within
the last two months, and rumor con?
nects them with crimes even of a
! ?larker character. We hope that
every effort will be made to effect the
arrest of Morris, who is sahl tobe
j tho leader ?d' a band of desperadoes.
A full and accurate) description of
this miscreant will bc found in our
advertising columns.
'inc two prisoners have been con?
signed to the charge of the civil au?
thorities. Tin y were both horn and
raised in tho town of Newberry, S.

: to the enormity of his guilt, had fre
I qaently enjoyed tho hospitalities of
' his victim.

THE UNITED STATES PKIZE CON?
CEB?.-The Chicago Times, ?d' the
15th instant, announces the failure of
Wiggins, Bradford & Co., managers
of tho great prize concert of that
city, to como to time. After two
postponements of their concert, they
have "vamoosed the ranch," with, as
is supposed, some ?300,000, which
they have swindled from a too-con
liding public.
The New York Herald calls, upon
tho business men of that city to meet
in convention and ratify the*platform
of thc Philadelphia Convention, on
the ground that the material and
financial interests of the country de?
pend upon the reconstruction of the
Union and tho admission of South*

seventh bas sustained our own porra-,

surplus of food for exportation
enough, no doubt, to sustain 2,000,

To the Press of Sooth Carolina.
PERMIT me to acknowledge the many
kind notices of myself and the pro?
poned enterprise to establish an Agricultu?
ral ? ..d Family Newspaper, and to assure
yon, gentlemen, that with vour liberal aid,
there is overv probability that tho RURAL
SOUTHERNER will make its debut" in a few
weeks. A few gentlemen are actively at
work for it, and if a few such men in each
District would make a little effort, the en?
terprise would be secured.
The present condition of our lal>or will
cause our farmers and planters to seek out
such implements a? will enable them to
reduce the number of laborers, and, as far
as possible, make themselves independent
of the most unreliable and unruly. To aid
them in this desirable object, a practical and
intelligent planter, connected with the
RURAL, will be assigued the duty of
j searching for and testing tb8 many labor
! saving implements now used in all parts of
I our country, and report upon them through
our columns. Those found adapted to our
section will be finely illustrated, and ar?
rangements will bo made hy us with the
manufacturers to supply our farmers and
: planters with them at the lowest prices. In
I this way, a liberal support of tue RURAL
I will secure a practical benefit to the South
j ern people.
: To accomplish these good intentions, tho
; RURAL must first receive a reasonable
j assurance of support. All we ask is 2,500
j good subscribers. Surely our farmers and
? planters can give us that number to secure
? so great benefits to themselves,
