We have this month to notice such an extensive list of elegant dresses, that we will only devote a limited space to general remarks. At the present moment, ball and evening dresses are of the first consideration. Low bodies are cut rather square, or slightly in the shape of a heart. Thick materials are usually made with round waists. Very wide sashes are worn with these, tied behind, with double falling bows ; the sleeve is made with a bouillonne of the same material as the dress. The trimming of the skirt reaches about half a yard up from the button—narrow flounces, bouillonnes, bands of velvet or taffetas, lace, or chenille fringe, are all in vogue. A net-work formed of chenille, or with small hanging plush ornaments, is also worn; and fur is as fashionable as ever. Tarlatane dresses are even trimmed with bands of swan's-down, and the effect pro duced is both novel and pretty. Swiss ceintures and corse lets are still quite the rage. They are to be seen in so many different styles, that all tastes may be pleased; but those made with basques, and laced up in front, are, perhaps, the most stylish. Visiting-dresses are frequently made quite plain, with merely epaulettes of passementerie, and aumonieres to match. Passementerie is sometimes put up every seam of the skirt. The skirts are made quite as long and fan-shaped as formerly; of course the lower part much wider round than the upper. Sleeves are still very small and long; only just opened sufficiently at the wrist to show the under-sleeves. The convenient and charming little vestes, with under waistcoats, are as indispensable as ever. Those for morn ing are made of satin, velvet, plush, or even cachemire, but always with the Indian chemisette of foulard; in the even ing, of course the veste is more elegant, and worn over a chemisette of Yak lace, lined with satin of the same colour as the dress. Opera-cloaks made of light-coloured volvets, and trimmed with wid9 fringe and passementerie, are very elegant. The shades most admired are white, ponceau, or gold. Our description of dresses commences with these appro priate for evening wear. An azure-blue satin, with narrow flounce of white bugles round the bottom of the skirt. An over-skirt of white tulle, trimmed with white blonde, and caught up at equal dis tances with wide blue satin ribbon, spotted with silver. The ribbons commence at the waist, and are finished off with a bow and white bugle fringe. The body is made of white tulle over blue satin, and the drapery formed of blue satin trimmed with blonde. The sleeves—very short—also made of satin, and trimmed with drapery and blonde. A ball-dress; a skirt of very fine white tarlatane with several narrow flounces, alternately of white taffetas and tarlatane ; above these, some bouillonnes of tulle. The whole skirt is covered in this way, and small bows of white or coloured chenille are dotted about over it. The body is made of white taffetas, with a plastron of white tulle. A robe with three skirts of white tulle trimmed with ruches over a skirt of ponceau satin. The body is of satin, bouillonne with tulle, and the sleeves, which are made very short, are also of full tulle. All over this.dress are bouquets of pomegranate flowers with green foliage. A dress of white crape over white satin, the crape skirt forming a tunique, which is trimmed round pith white blonde flounces. A trimming of peach blossoms finishes the toilette. A black velvet dress ; the body, sleeves, and skirt, have bands of blue satin upon them, over which are flounces of black lace. The body is cut in the Swiss style, and the lace put flat over the bands of satin. A dress of white tulle, with bouillonnes up to the knees, and an under-skirt of ponceau satin. A flounce of black lace nearly a yard wide is placed over the bouillons of tulle, festooned with bouquets of pomegranate flowers. The body, of satin, is covered with drapery of white tulle mixed with black lace. Ihe sleeves are made to match; and on both body and sleeves are bouquets of pomegranate flowers. A robe of Indian red velvet; the skirt with a train, but quite plain : drapery of white tulle and velvet on the body ; the sleeves, bouillons of tulle. A white moire, embroidered with gold and violet daisies ; the skirt, training, is trimmed round with a thick rouleau of violet velvet. This material, being very rich, admits of no other trimming. The body is low, but worn with a chemi • sette of English lace. The sleeves are so short that they are almost imperceptible, but a trimming of English lace is placed round them, and falls over the arm. A pink satin dress, trimmed round the bottom with three rows of white chenille fringe, with the ends formed of little white satin balls ; body with a square berthe, with two rows of narrower fringe. A robe of white satin, trimmed above the hem with black lace insertion put on in lozenges ; in the centre of each a large black lace leaf, and between a smaller one. The body is made with a round waist, a sash of black lace with wide ends falling behind; small lozenges of insertion are put on as a square berthe. A white satin dress, covered with two skirts of tulle, spotted with gold, the lower one entirely bouillonnee, and the upper is caught up at distances by wreathes of black lace leaves ; berths, bouillonnes of tulle : in front and on the shoulders large leaves of black lace, grouped with roses. A robe of white tarlatane ; at the bottom of the skirt a flounce, put on waved, and headed with a chicoree of rose coloured taffetas; higher up, a second flounce. A ceinture body of rose taffetas, piped with white, and trimmed round with small rose-coloured tassels. A sea-green moir antique, with two bands of black velvet, pinked and trimmed with niches of white blonde. A thick black taffetas dress, trimmed rather more than 15 inches up the skirt with wide biais band of violet and white checked velvet, put on slantways. High body, with dia gonal bands from shoulder to shoulder. Sleeves with revers trimmed to match. A robe of black satin, with four thick wide ruches of the same, edged with narrow blonde. The body has a cascue cut up behind. An emerald-green satin dress, trimmed round the skirt with two wide bands of green velvet, separated one from the other by an insertion of black lace, and each side of these bands is edged with lace ; the whole of this trimming is put on in points. The body is a Senorita jacket of velvet, with a satin waistcoat trimmed with lace. Robe Imp6ratrice of violet poplin, trimmed round the skirt with a band of black velvet and a fringe of balls, which reaches nearly down to the bottom of the dress. Basque, and the bottom and top of the sleeves, trimmed to match. A similar fringe, forming a square berthe, is placed on the body. A wedding dress of white satin, having round the bottom a trimming of swan's down between 15 and 16 inches wide. This dress is made with a train. Another marriage dress is of white terry velvet, with three wide flounces of English lace, each flounce headed with a narrow band of swan's down an inch wide. A plain body, with buttons formed of pearls about the size of a small nut. At the top of the sleeves, a nar row band of swan's down. There is little change in bonnets this month; they are, if possible, more simple and elegant than those described in our last number. We begin with one of corn -flower-blue satin, quilted ; a velvet ribbon, about an inch and a half wide, beginning at each side of the crown, is fastened at the top in two long bows and ends; two other straps of the same ribbon aro brought from the inside of the bonnet to meet the bow. A bunch of perriwinkles, in blue velvet, is placed across the forehead : narrow strings of velvet to match the bonnet, and wide ones of black silk. A white plush bonnet ; the front and curtain edged with plaid velvet, a large flat bow of the same, the ends trimmed with chenille fringe ; the edge of the front trimmed with the same fringe. Strings of white ribbon, edged with plaid ve lvet. This bonnet is equally pretty if green or blue vel vet is substituted for the plaids, A bonnet of pale green velvet, the curtain trimmed with black lace. The front has a half wreath of brown heath, and velvet leaves; in the inside, the same fhwers, mixed with black berries. Blonde cap and green satin strings. A bonnet of green royal velvet, the front bouillonne of crape the same shade. The curtain of green velvet, lined with white satin. On the grown, tufts of white feathers, with aigrette of black lace. In the inside, a poaff of white crape, with daisies in mother-of-pearl and bright leaves. The dinner and evening coiffures are high, but coquettes and artistic. The coiffure rase is muchadopted this winter, and requires d. the ornaments to be worn quite on the summ i t of the head. Amongst many charming hea dresses, was one formed with a pouff of tulle on the summit, Siberian aigrette at the side with a rosette of red velvet; a diamond butterfly in the middle of the pouff. . . A head-dress of pink rook coral, branch es o f cora l cross ingoAthe back u f hair, and falling in l ong strings, white point lace, formin g a c h aperon, trimmed ocoiffure r r e at the side with two bunches of crysanthemums ; a mara bout feather very light, spotted with white bugles, is carried across the front, and falls over the back hair. The toilette de bal, an elegant wreath of night-shade in various tints, and made of velvet, mounted on real wood ; or Watteau wreaths composed of pouff of roses, with bou quets of myosotis, and bachelors' buttons. Also a head dress of apple blossoms, mixed with gold wheat ears, Jules Favre on the Mexican Expedition, During the debate in the French Corps Legis latif on Wednesday, Mr. Jules Favre delivered a powerful speech against the policy of the Govern ment in Mexico. The following report contains the principal passages : I have alwa3s been of opinion that the Mexican expedition would give rise to serious embarrass. ments, and none of the facts since realised have given ground for a different conclusion. I will not revert to subjects already exhausted, nor inquire whether we could or could not have avoided war in 1861 ; but I will beg the Government to reply dis tinctly to the following question :—ls it not true that at the time when our Charge d'Affairs in Mexico was signalising the misdeeds of which our countrymen had been the victims and invoking the protection of France, an influence—that of the Mexican emigrants who have taken refuge on the French soil—was making itself felt in our policy P Is it not true that, taking their own dreams for possibilities, they ennounced that on the mere ap pearance of oar soldiers, an energetic reaction would be produced in Mexico, by favour of which a monarchy, akin to our own, might easily be raised in the New World to propagate therein our prin ciples and our influence? A dream not entirely devoid of grandeur, but still a dream! Well, then it is not true that the French Government placed these emigrants directly under our protection so as to appear to transact business in their behalf ? And not only did the French Government lend an ear to these suggestions, but the Mexican emigrants, before our intentions could be. known in Europe, had already opened communications with the Arch duke Maximilian. I ask the Government if it was aware of that fact ? It involves a serious respon sibility ; for it is to realise such projects as these that the blood and treasure of France have been ex pended; (Adhesion from home benches,) The Government should also give us information about the negotiations with the House of Austria. Has the Austrian Government approved of these pro jects ? for the responsibility of the French Govern ment at the point where these negotiations and this protection, which we cannot now disavow with honour, first commenced. (Applause.) Attempts made by great States to effect radical changes in the bosom of weaker ones are condemned by the law of nations, and by all honest and impartial minds. We saw in 1862 at the time of the debate on the address what was taking place. We foresaw real misfortunes arising from the expeditim that had been decided on ; we de manded that there should be no intervention in the home affairs of Mexico, bat simply a claim put in for reparation of wrongs. It is my belief that many of those who voted against our amendment in 1862 now see cause to regret that there has been a devia tion from this simple policy. But in 1862 we ex pressed our distrust, and we informed the Govern ment that certain rumours had reached us, leading us to think that the qaestion of an Austrian candi date was already on the tapis, (Dissent.) If you dispute this, hear the words of the late M. Billault. (Here the speaker read a passage from a speech of that gentleman to the effect that a report having got abroad that France was about to place a foreign Prince on the Mexican throne, the Minister of Foreign Affairs had contradicted the same.) Is this clear enough, gentlemen ? It is, in fact, certain that this contradiction was sent to the English and American envoys. And yet the negotiations had been opened before the departure of our troops—be fore the Convention of October, 1861. In the official document you will find the whole scheme. Take the despatch addressed on Oct. 11, 1861, by the Minister of Foreign Affairs to our Ambassador in London. II is said therein that the reparation of our wrongs can alone form the object of an ostensible convention. Ostensible ! Then there were conventions that were not ostensible. The despatch adds that, in presence of the American crisis, Europe might perhaps find an advantageous opportunity for setting up in Mexico a Government strong enough to resist in ternal dissolution. I should have nothing to say if France were willing to respect the national will in Mexico; but this will, in spite of official declara tions, has been, and is still, openly misconstrued. And what have you found in Mexico ? Have you found the country in the state described by the emigrants ? The events of Puebla and the words of bitter disappointment addressed by General Lorencez t( his allies are a sufficient answer. (Here the hon. member gave a short recapitulation of the events that followed the capture of Puebla.) Coming to the formation of the Junta of M. Dubois de Saligny, he continued as follows:—'Phis junta consisted of thirty-five persons—twenty-two of whom had been members of former Governments overthrown by Juarez. Those thirty-five bad the charge of nominating 195 others; thus forming en assembly of 230 persons. Now, can any serious man have ever had a doubt about the vote of such an assembly ? Its decision had been dictated to it beforehand. And is it not an abject and revolting spectacle to see .230 men with no other mandate than the choice of a foreign gene ral, meeting together to make a parade of the mise ries of their country ? I hasten to withdraw my eyes from the view. (Confused sensation.) The Junta then chose the Archduke Maximilian. If ever the archduke should come on the throne, I hope he will be the model of princes; but certainly he will have been the model of official candidates. Thus we find this same Maximilian, not called to the throne by the voice of the Mexican people, but imposed on it by the special influence and volition of France. France had occupied Mexico, and French blood had been shed in streams. Let us now look at the instructions given to Gen. Pony at the time of his departure. His business was, immediately after entering Mexico, to put himself in communication with the notables of all shades, and to come to an understanding with them about the formation of a provisional Government, which Government should afterwards consult the coun try as to the form to be given to a permanent regime. Such were the instructions given. Now the policy pursued has been widely divergent, it has been the policy of a single party, whose object was the destruction of the Republic. Several hon. members have based their arguments on the unconditional acceptance of the archduke. But he does not accept it without restriction. The Mexican deputation, extremely well received in Austria; it did not obtain the honour of a personal interview with the Emperor. I have read in the correspondence of journals that when the Emperor was questioned about his approval of the installa tion of his brother, he replied, "If my brother chose to retire into a monastery I could not prevent him; how then can I prevent him from going to Mexico ?" The speech which the Archduke made to the Mexi. can deputation has not had the honour of a repro duction in the Moniteur. Ho declared that his acceptances would depend on the vote of the coun try; and that he would not give it without solid guarantees for the future. Now, I ask, where is acceptance talked of? What aro the guarantees that you have given him ? Where is the vote of the Mexican people ? Until these preliminary conditions are fulfilled France has no right to continue the war. We can be no longer told of our national griefs ; the reparation has been already obtained. But let us endeavour to ascer tain the will of the Mexican people. We are told that its adhesion is unanimone, and the illoniteur assures us that there is reason to hope that in a short time a very large portion of Mexico will have rallied to our flag. This is presuming rather too much on the credulity of readers. The truth is, that we are masters of the ground which is under the wheels of our guns and the feet of our soldiers. (Interruption.) We are told of triumphal marches, of our soldiers being hailed everywhere as libera tors. All this may be true ; but I know that the city of Guadalaxara resists, and that we shall per haps be obliged to lay siege to it. And if euch PRICE .4d. STAMPED .....sd. military operations are still necessary, it can only be because we are fighting against the cause of Mexi can nationality. Nor is it true, as has been asserted, that all the centres of great populations are in our favour. In the north and west there are other great centres, and these still resist ; thus fresh campaigns will be required, and we shall have to increase our army to 50,C00 or 66,000 men. It was well ob served yesterday that we could found nothing durable in Mexico ; and why is this ? Because we have built on the support of a detested party, a miserable minority in the nation— the party of :`4liramon and Marquez. Now, who are these men? Miramon is the man who com manded Marquez to massacre the prisoners of Tacu baya, amongst whom there was an English phy sician, and who waded to the throne through the blood thus odiously shed, Marquez is the man who, after numerous murder®, was thrown into prison for carrying off 600,000 piastres belonging to the English Legation. And when such men are found in our ranks, is there any reason to be surprised that the Mexican population should resist us ? (Assent.) Certain sequestrations were made by the French Government. They arose from the necessities of the situation. The moment the Pro visional Government was set up, reactionary pretensions immediately manifested themselves. Every man sought to gratify his own rapacity. We resisted, and General Bazaine caused an ener getic communicated note to be inserted in the j Jarnals. Then what occurred? Two members of the Provisional Government submitted; but the third, Mgr. Labstida, the archbishop, inserted into the same journal a protestation against our acts, as being a violation of the divine law. And we were obliged to use cannon to open the gates of the cathedral for our soldiers. That is the way we re-establish order in Mexico. Such a state of things cannot be prolonged. We take, however, special note of the declaration of the French Government, that the solution is to be pronounced in Mexico by universal suffrage. We are told that there are 7,500,000 of souls. Let us then remember this figure, and compare it with the result of the vote. It is needless to add that the voting should be entirely free and uninfluenced by French authorities. Can it be true that the lessons of history are always lost. Fifty years ago the head of the powerful house which now reigns in France had his Mexico also. He wished to level the Pyrennees for the sake of a family alliance. By a back-stroke of his hand he overturned the Spanish throne ; then came the war, wherein the heroic valour of our soldiers was pre-eminent, but wherein all our victories were sterile. Thus did the great captain see his legions sacrificed to an in terest which was not a French interest. But are we safe at the present day ? We cad only be so on one condition—that of keeping justice on our side, and not rendering ourselves amenable, as in 1813, to the charge of violating the right and falsifying the promise of France. (Applause and sensation.) A TRAIN IN A SNOWSTORM. At 6 o'clock on the morning of New Year's-day a train on the Michigan Central Railroad plunged in an immense drift, which lay directly across its way. The powerful locomo tive pushed ahead right royally at first, scattering the snow in glittering clouds upon each side, as easily as a ship would part the foam. Further and still further into the drift and slower and still slower went the engine. It laboured and struggled as if loth to give up the contest, but finally stopped. The engineer then sought to back the locomotive ; but the powerful engine was now within the grasp of a giant, in whose hands its strength was but that of a child. The train, still 7 miles from Chicago was imprisoned in the snow. There were over 100 passengers, many of them women and children, with but a short supply of wood. One by one out into the blinding storm went those who were able, and digging down through the snow drifts tore up the fences near the road, and brought them as fuel to the cars. The boards were broken up, and the fast cooling stoves soon gave out a generous heat. The wind, as it rushed along, drew the flames up through the kindling pine, until stove and pipe were heated red. Then a new peril broke upon the passengers. The roof of the car took fire from the heated pipe, and as the wind caught the flames they roared and crackled and curled downwards towards the passengers, as if in mockery of their misery. With great exertions the flames were quelled, hut the car was no lorkzer tenable, and all the passengers were huddled together in the other. It was now nearly two o'clock in the afternoon, and appre hensions of a horrible death had begun to seize upon them, when a train on the Michigan Southern line arrived at a cressing 400 yards off, and was stop ped. The work of transferring the passengers was im mediately commenced. The distance between the two trains was filled with a drift nearly ten feet in depth, and to make the passage from one to the other was a work of great labour and difficulty. The storm was at its height and the cold so intense that the faces of the women and children were frozen almost as soon as they came in contact with the wind, turning white as instantly as if they had been plunged in boiling water, Scarcely any one made the passage from one train to the other without being badly frost-bitten ; many quite seriously. This newly•arrived train was already 16 hours behind its time. Some wedding cake, the only food in it, was confiscated to the necessities of the occasion, This train, with its double load, after starting afresh, was soon effectually buried in a drift, the wheels clogged with snow, and the engine frozen up. Another night was com ing on. Two strong men were now started for the town, and reached it after great toil and danger. They made their way to the Fremont-house, which was full of guests, and told their story. The alarm was given, and sleighs started with provisions and blankets, but only two suc ceeded in getting as far as the train. After unload ing they started at eight o'clock for Chicago, with several of the passengers. The drivers, however, after travelling a short time became conscious that they were lost. No one could tell in what direction to go. They were in the midst of an illimitable labyrinth of snow-drifts running in every direction, and some of them of great depth. In the gloom the presence of a drift could not be known until the horses were plunging and struggling up to their sides. Both sleighs were turned over several times, and frequently both the men and ladies were compelled to get out into the deep snow-drifts and extricate the horses, Finally one of the sleighs broke down, and the men were com pelled to trudge along through the snow, waist deep in places, and lead the horses dragging the broken sleigh. On, on, on they went, one snow-drift succeeding another, as billow succeeds billow upon the ocean, and still no sign or trace of the "lost city." About half-past 10 o'clock a light was seen in the distance, towards which the horses were immediately headed. Arriving they found it to pro ceed from the residence of a hospitable German, who made them comfortable for the night. Awakening in the morn ing, they found themselves just half a mile from the train. Happily, the beacon light which had been kept burning by the passengers who were left in the train served to indicate its locality to the agent of the railroad, who succeeded in reaching it with some more provisions and blankets about ten o'clock that night, after having blundered around among the drifts for several hours. With these advantages the passengers on the train managed to pass a tolerable night, considering the prospects before them when evening set in. Early in the morning they were brought up to the city in sleighs, some of them severely frost-bitten, but no life was lost.—Chicago Times. WILLS AND BEQUESTS (From the Illustrated London News.)

In 1862 the Maria went from place Carcl on iffto se ß pt ahi7. s a with he coals, arrivingeds,charterat the latter for a voyage to London, and while the cargo was being shipped, the crew, for some unaccou n t ab le reason, were allowed three days' leave asho re . It was stated that a on greater board h quantity t an she o of cargo cul d receive, t o h ave b een pute , and the ship, freight, and cargo were insured in London and other places. In the course of th e vo yage from Bahia the name of the ship was painted over ; and on Dec. 18, when the vessel was reported to have sprung a leak, supposed to be in the captain's cabin, he re fused the crew an opportunity to search for it. On the following day the water had risen 10 feet, and the captain gave orders to abandon the ship. The boats were lowered, and the captain, in going over the ship's side, let fall into the sea a packet of papers. In the protest he declared the parcel to contain two bores of diamonds of the value of £3,900, for which amount insurances were effected in the Royal Ex change and other offices. One boat, containing the mate and five seamen, wa s picked up and taken into St. Michael's, and the other boat drifted about seve ral days before it was fallen in with. Inquiries were then instituted, and the result tended to show that the ship had been wilfully scuttled, and that there were no such diamonds and other property on board as alleged. The facts also implicated the shippers at Bahia. attempting After a prot rac t e d trial the Court convicted the prisone r o f i ssuing f a l s e bills of lading, and of condemned to three years' imprisonment, and then a fraud on the underwriters, and he was tc) be dismissed from the country. The Metropolitan Board of Works, The usual weekly meeting of the Board of Works was held yesterday at the Board-rooms, Spring gardens—Mr. Thwaites in the chair. The cash statement showed that the balance on current accounts amounted to £84,549 19s 3d, and on deposit account to £33,122 10s 9d ; the sum of £96,729 8s 7d was invested in Government Secu rities. THE PIICENIX GAS COMPANY. Mr. TAYLOR. introduced a deputation from the inhabitants of Lambeth and Vauxhall, and presented a memorial, praying the board to oppose in Parlia ment a bill promoted by the Phenix Gas Company, for enabling the company to purchase land and con struct works in the line of the future extension of the Southern Embankment. Mr. Taylor observed that if the proposed works were carried out it would have a very injurious effect upon the health of the inhabitants, particularly as largo gas works already existed. A memorial was also presented from the vestry of St. Mary, Lambeth, praying the board to oppose the bill. After some slight discussion, the memorials were referred to the Thames Embankment Committee. A report was brought up from the Main Drainage Committe, recommending that the several articles of antiquity discovered in carrying out the Main Drainage works be handed over to the authorities of the British Museum for deposit in that institu tion. THE POWERS OF THE BOARD. Mr. D'IFFANGER moved a resolution, that the resolution of the board of Jan. 15, granting the ap plication of Mr. Jones, on behalf of Messrs. Mar shall and Snelgrove, for the approval by the board of the line of frontage, for a building at the corner of Marylebone-lane, Oxford-street, be rescinded. He observed that the board had granted permission to Messrs. Marshall and Snelgrove to build over five feet of the public pavement, which was the pro perty of the vestry of Marylebone, The board had granted that which they had no power to do, and it was an iniringement upon the privileges of the vestry. A report was read from the architect to the effect that the proposed building would be a great im provement to the neighbourhood, and would not interfere with the frontage. After some discussion the resolution was negatived. THE SALARIES OE THE OFFICERS. Mr. LEGG said that there was no doubt, in con sequence of the Thames embankment, a vast amount of work had been thrown upon the board ; and there could also be no doubt but that the work of the officers had been materially increased. The time was now come when, as the board was about to apportion the expenses of the establishment, they should consider the following motion, which he had given notice of—" That it be referred to the Thames Embankment Committee to consider the increased duties and responsibilities thrown upon the heads of the several departments of the board in consequence of the passing of the Thames Embankment Acts 1862 and 1863, and that in taking into consideration the subdivision of the expenses of the board, the salaries of such officers be re•considered." Mr. NEWTON seconded the motion. An amendment was moved that the question be not put, which was carried. After the transaction of some routine business the board adjourned.

The Bth of December is iu Catholic countries a great feast day, being the anniversary of the Pic7l - Concepcion of the B.Virgin Mary. Daring the previous month the Church de h Compr4. - niu, so .. ..._ called because it belonged formerly to the Jesuits (Compania de Jtsus), had been celebrating the devotional practices and offices that corri.:spond to the 11Ies de Maria, a copy or imitation of what at the same period of the year tr&.s places in French churches, The month ends on a.‘c. 8, or the Feast of the Conception of the Virgin, and on the evening of that day the church vin4,s to be illuminated and adorned with flowers and garlands with more pro fusion than on former evenings. I may mention that many who had visited th's church on former occa sions had complained of the suffocation prodliced by the great agglomeration of people, and especially of the danger likely to be incurred by the great number of lights on the principal altar, and indeed all round the church, but it seems no measures were taken to prevent a serious accident. The church was capacious enough to contain, in my opinion, 3,000 women, packed as they are in these countries, sit ting and kneeling on the floor on their own hand carpets, which each lady carries with her. Besides those who could accommodate themselves inside (for which purpose many took their seats outside the church three hours before the doors were opened), nearly 500 were left outside, sitting oa the steps of the church near the doors, and just close enough to hear the music or catch a few stray words from the preacher. On the Bth, being a feast-day, the devotees ware exceedingly numerous, although perhaps a great many ladies preferred going to the Alameda, or Avenue of Poplars, which is the grand promenade; but on the other hand, all the servant girls in town received permission to attend. The doers of the church opened et 6 o'clock (or near that tine), and the women took their places, each scramb;ing, as usual, for the best, or that nearest the pulpit and principal altar. The achoiytes commenetal lighting the lamps; unfortunately they were net fed with oil, but with camphine, or as it is called here, gas portatil. The principal image of the Virgin, in the centre of the altar, was supported by a fine half-moon or crescent of brilliant lamps. On lighting these an accident took place (the de tails are not known or well investigated). The fire communicated to the other surrounding lamps . , to the artificial flowers and garlands, candies, See. Either the people inside the church did not per-, ceive the fire, or the greater part thought it might be easily extinguished (as on previous nights it was not uncommon to see the aeholytes blundering in their task) or some may have thought it best to wait, and may have been unwilling to lose their places. Meanwhile, the fire had extended to the, roof, which was of wood, and to the dome, also of wood, and the spectators began to perceive the danger they were in. Many left the church quietly, but in a few minutes the greatest confusion pre vailed. The 3,000 inmates of the church ran to the doors. The building has three huge doors in the front, but only one—the centre one—was available ; the others were always closed, and never made use of. The two side doors of the church were also available; but the chief number ran to the princi pal or front door, and the side door , that opens on Bandera-street. The other side doer opens on a small court, at the side of the new Congress, a building yet unfinished. About a third of the congregation, it appears, managed to run out and escape, but the rest of the women fell upon each other at the very doors, and, instead of opening a passage to let others escape, formed a complete wedge, and the bodies remained locked together in rows one upon the other ; these masses becoming every moment higher and more compact, and nono being able to extricate herself, as she was fastened or caught 1.2&d of by a dozen hands behind her. You can imagine the shrieks and agonies of these poor creatures struggling for life, and endeavouring to escape from the middle of the church, where the fire had already taken pos session of the dome, and where the lamps and chandeliers were falling. It is natural to euppos.e that they must have fled to the aide naves, and placed themselves under the arches. But mean while the fire advanced, and no outlet was to be found. The doors were obstructed. Some few passers by had given the alarm. Many flocked to the Piazuela do la Campania, reached the doors, and tried to pull the people out; but it was impos sible; it required the strength of a steam engine to move the compact mass of human beings loched together. Some with outstretched arms beckoned to those outside ; others implored assistance, calling the succourers by their names; others could hardly speak, and only signified their wishes by a motion of their heads or lips. Some were suffocated with the weight of those above and around them; others were suffocated with the flames and smoke. Those who ventured to rescue them had to be brought or pulled out by a dozen companions, more dead than alive. All was confusion and alarm, the bystanders tearing their hair and running about wild in the streets without being able to afford the least assis tance. A man on horseback, a country quaso, throw his iaso (or rope of hide, which they always carry attached to the saddle) into the church, and a thou sand hands tried to catch hold of it. Seine did seize it, and were dragged out by the man and the strength of the horse; but the second time! the same attempt was made the lasogave way. A few moments afterwards the bystanders saw the women inside in flames. Their clothes had caught fire ; the fire had reached their heads, and their hair was on fire. A great flame came across the church ; the doors and other wooden parts took fire. The sufferers dropped down their heads and arms without a shriek, and all was silence. The church was a furnace, above and below—the roof and the victims underneath. Never was there such a spectacle, nor do I think histo!y can present a parallel. When I reached the spot all the interior of th e church was a red flame. I only heard the cries and wailing of the people in the square and streets ; the running about of wild men, and the crash of the dome falling in the midst of the ruins, A few minutes afterwards the tower or spire, also of wood, caught fire, and in a quarter of an hour was con sumed and fell into the church. H ow many vic tims have perished?" every one asked; every one v a e ll s i , n f c o . u t I f o i r mm his e a o t t e h l e y r c ,wie, a h l is u e f t h h i a s t s 5 t e o r o , souls had perished, as I saw no woman in the r w e a la s t plazuela or streets. Some thought 60 or 100 a great figure, but during the evening the truth was to be discovered. Few had escaped ; a small number had been brought out, half burnt and in a deplorable state. As the fire burnt itself out—for here we have, it is shameful to say, no fire• engines —the bodies in the church began to be visible, as they lay in horizontal strata, or in groups standing or kneeling, in their last posture, as the fire Lad caught them ; the greater portion near the doors, others under the arches, others under the great bell, which had fallen on the group near the principal door mho appalling idea then presented itself to some persons that the dead numbered 500 or 600, but nest morning, when the bodies were removed and counted, the first lot numbered 1,400, and still many remained. According to the lists of people missing which the papers publish, the victims out number 2,000. According to these lists the greater and portion—servants Fay two-thirds, are the humbler class ; one-third at least belong to .10 principal families of Santisgo. so fro- The consternation was so great, the blow t this mendous, and the spectacle so appall in g , ti ;one of catastrophe passed at first like a dream. many Ele,p the living slept that night, nor COuid for successive nights after. ; s „ntia go that does There is hardly a family not mourn the less of scone nc,.. a quarter of 103. r relative.
