1t is said that the effect of the times may be
seen in the adoption of calico dresses for walk
inc in the streets in New York. independently
of any pressure, this change is a proper one.
Somehow other the ladies of this country had
gotten into the habit of dressing when they went
TO take a walk, in style Of costIiness and dis
PLAY better suited to the drawing room than to
the open air. There is a certain fitness of things
that ought to be observed carefully, and perhaps
there can be no better way of dressing rcN than
to attire oneself in garb suited to the occasion.
What rational person could ever think the cxpen-
sive dresses in which our ladies appeared in the
streets suitable for the purpose! Light colored
shoes and delicate m1sns were certainly never
made for treading on soiled pavements and facing
the open air. How much more sensible is the
European mode. There, in the forenoon, ladies
when they walk appear in dresses Of more dura-
BILE texture and darker co!ors, and wear shoes
suited for stepping through the mud. Instead Of
bonncts loaded with lace and expensive ornaments,
a more substantial covering is used for the head,
intended to protect the complexion at the same
time that it excludes the cold. There perhaps
no article of female attire more becoming than
the walking dresses used by European ladies',
warm and comfortable, bot fitting their persons
" it'll a neatness and precision calculated to show
of the gracefulness OF their figures. Ii the
lines have corrected the abuses Of dressing, which
led to the wearing Of the most costly clothing.

The English are taking up the culture Of
the Beet, for the purpose of making sugar,
with great spirit. Refineries have been es-
tablished at London and Belfast, and a
great number of acres of land in the vicin-
ity of the former city have been devoted To
the cultivation of this root. The subject is
claiming greater interest every day in this
country and will we hope before long cn-
gross the attention and capital of many, TO
whom lis prosecution will certainly furnish
a return for their investments much greater
than can he procured from any of the or.
dinary branches of agriculture.

LATER FROM EUROPE.

The packet ship Pennsy l,nnia, Capt.
smith, arrived yesterday from Liverpo"l.
She has brought us London papers 10 the
o3d and Liverpool To The 24ih u!; being
three days later than we had before received.
The Hasre packet ship Charlemagne, Capt.
Richards, also arrived yesterday but the
papers aud Havre journals brought by her
are no later than the 18th, their contents are
therefore anticipated by the English ae-
counts.
Considerable uneasiness still evidently
prevails inthe London money market. The
state of the cotton market however, con-
tinues favorable, as does the appearance OF
the grain markets.
The unfortunate expedition TO Constaii-
tina, is still fruitful theme of discussion in
the French Journals. Preparations are
making for the meeting of the chambers
but we see nothing else of any general in
terest.
The Carlist General Gomez, as we ex-
pected, has not met any severe check, aud
is now on his return To the northern prov
inces. There is much talk of treachery or
the part of the Queens General, who pur-
sued HIM Bilboa will probably fall into the
hands of the Carlists, who have been fol
some time besieging that place, as Espar-
tero, the Queens General, who was expect
ed 10 relieve it, has given up the attempt.

The news from Cuba has been so very
contradictory that we hardly know what to
credit. BY the following, it appears that
the disturbances in that Island are posi-
lively suppressed.
From the New Orleans Bee of Jan 10Th.
BY the schooner San Jose, Capt. Mani
tany, which sailed from Havana on the af-
ternoon of the 29lh ult. we have received
the news, cheering for the trade of New
Orleans, that the disturbances which had
broken out in the province Of 81. Jago de
Cuba were suppressed and order restored.
We translate the following from the Diarro
Della Habana:
Havana, December 30.
An extra mail which is just arrived from
St. Jagc, brings the important intelligence
that the legitimate government is re-estab-
lished in that place and affairs restored to
the same state MS before the 29th Septem-
ber; that the authority of our worthy captain
general is recognized, and the commands oi
her Majesty the Queen Regent conformed
to.
General Lorenzo was obliged to surrender
the command which had been confided tO
him. He is already put on board vessel
together with the commander of regiment
of CATALONIA, two officers of that regiment,
Don Juan Kindelan and the licenclado
Don Fransisco MunozdeI Monte, The two
first are the instigaiors of all the disorders
(which have taken place, and the last 's the
author of the proclama,ions and other
seditous articles published by General
Lorenzo. They carry with them thcexecra-
tons of all the inhabitants of II. Jago de
Cuba, who, under the horrible oppression
they have indured for three months, have
given the most striking proofs of there 10y
atty. Tomorrow we shall give the details
at full length of these important events
This news is very interesting for the mer-
chants of New Orleans, whose relations
with the Island of Cuba are Of the utmost
Importance, which relations would be deeply
injured if the tranquility Of the Island were
disturbed. .t F.. ...
Cuba.-SeIdom has any article of foreign
news been received with SO much salts
faction in this city, as that which we pub
lished in the Bee of yesterday, relative to
the suppression of the disturbances In the
Island of Cuba. 1t seem TO be regarded In
the light of domestic event ofthe happies
kind and in fact it ought to be so regarded
for a civil was or revolution in Cuba, would
be followed with disastrous consequences tc
the trade ofthe United States. Gen. Tacon
by the firmness, energy, and wisdom of thu
measures he adopted for the restoration o.
tranquility has merited the thanks of th'
whole civilized world. He is one of thu
most extraordinary men of the age, and hi
name is worthy of a place by the side o
those of the law -givers of ancient or moder
tines. 1t is matter Of regret that man lik
Gen. Tacon, Of great sagacity, experience
and recti,ude, were not mt the head of tn
patriotic armies IN the Peninsula.
