of Virginia amounted to $4, 085, 472, and those
Of New York to 1907 200. In 1S49 the imports
of Virginia amounted to $241, 1886, and the ex-

SHORT DREssEs.-The Turkish costume for
ladies is likely to go out of fashion before it has
got fair start, as it is discovered that it gives
an amazing display to an ugly foot. The ladies
who have pretty little feet always manage to
show them, no matter what the fashion of their
dress.-PhRa. Ledger.
The reason you give convinces us they will
not go out of fashion. "Pretty little feet" pre-
vail in this latitude, and SO we hope will the
more rational and prettier style of dress pro-
posed. They who are slaves to custom and
afraid of innovations, like all other slaves are
servile to the present reign, but the most severe
in condemnation of it when past and the most
subservient to it's successor in the day of its
prosperity. TUNES and pantalets, and pretty
feet and ankles, will be visible.

FEMALE MEDICAL COLLEGE, OF PENNsYLyA-

Faculty of this Institution is published The
Philadelphia Sun says that the experiment, SO
far, has been very successful, and affords gra-
tifying assurance that the idea of instructng
woman in the science of medicine is not de-
lusiye one, The catalogue of students numbers
forty,
We regard this as one Of the best of modern
improvements-the thorough education of wo-
man in medical science. The world will realize
great blessings from it; and before ten years
shall pass over us it will be universally ap-
proved This college should receive rich endow-
ments from the liberal and philanthropic. The
frowns of many are upon it; the goodwill of
others should be effectively manifested.

elegantly and tastefully executed Above the
inscription, an eagle is perched upon drum,
on each side of which are the American flag,
muskets, &c.-the whole being surrounded with
rays interspersed with a star for each State Of
the Union.
The words Of the inscription will tell the
whole story. They are as follows:
The National Greys, through the undersigned
committee, tender to Louis Vivian, esq.,, their
sincere thanks for the kind welcome and hospi-
table entertainment furnished them on the LIST
of May instant. The kindness extended to the
Greys on that occasion was the more gratifying,
because it was wholly unexpected and unsought.
They will look back with delight at this volun-
tary offering of friendship, and cherish the re-
membrance of the happy hour spent with the
gentlemanly proprietor and amiable family of
Mount Pleasant
AS testimonial of their regard, the "Greys"
have elected Louis Vivian, esq.,, life honorary

! ADMINIsTRArIO OF THE ARCH DIOCESE OF BAL
IMoRE.-Upon the death of the late Archbishop
OF Baltimore it was supposed that he had ap-
pointed no one to administer the diocese until
new Bishop could be selected; and, at the
request of the bishops and priests assembled at
the funeral of the late Archbishop, the Rev.
Francis LHomme consented to act as admins
traitor during the vacancy, and he issued his
circular as such, which we heretofore noticed !;
but on Monday last upon closer examination
of the papers left by Archbishop Eccleston,
document was found, appointing Rev. Mr.. Cos
kry, of Baltimore, to administer the diocese.
In consequence of this, Rev. Mr.. LHomme
has retired, and Rev. Mr.. Coskry has entered
upon the administration. He has published a
card, confirming the circular published last
week. 1t is also understood that the Arch
bishop las is usually nominated three persons to
succeed him, but their names have not trans
pired. Nomination was also made by the suf-
fragan bishops, and the names have been for
warded to Rome for the Popes confirmation !;
SO that in about two months it is probable
there will be a new Archbishop of Baltimore.
