The New STYLEOF LADIES DRESSES
However strange it may seem to see la-
dies in pants, in tcad of pctticoats, and
however it may disgust some Of both sexes,
yet that it will become the rcigning fashion
that the chang will be as sudden and
universal as has ever marked amy consid-

no doubt. OF the convynicnccs or incon-

not Of course SPEAK from experience; but
the novelty OF The thing, tha d,sira to BE-
in advance, rather than behind the times,
in matters of this kind, and the very great
favor which this new costume has met
with from the uniform manner which it is
commended by the press, assures us that
it will bear down all opposition. In re-
gard to the fashion Of ladies' costume, this
IS, in all future time, no doubt, to be an
era, and to the rising generation, will be
what the days Of stays, Grape cushions.
brooches, knee and shoe buckles, are to
the present. Indeed we are not sure that
some Barnum may not at future day ran
sack garrcts and old trunks, to gather an
assortment Of gowns and pctticoats that
belonged to their mothers, to exhibit as
curiosltics, to show the strange taste, and
the outlandish whims OF past generations.
Anticipating ali this as quite possible,
we have no idea Of throwing oursclf across
the railroad Of fashion, especially when
ladies and engineers and conductors, and
novelty generates the steam Instead cr

yer grays, like ourself, who ere apt to rail

A GOOD HIT

We copy the following good hit from the last North
Carolina Democrat:
REVOLUTIONS MEXICO. Quite a serious revo-
lutonary movement has been going on for some time
past in the States of Mexico, bordering the Rio
Grande. The latest accounts state that the revolu
tonists have beer completely successful and the
Government is totally unable to check their progress.
Indeed great is the disaecon of the troops relied
upon for the eence of the country, that but little OPP
position has been encountered. Several hundred
Texans are represented to be engaged in the enter
prise under the leadership of the notorious Guerilla
Chlefain Canales. The restless spirits of the
try who are out Of employment just now doubt
less be accommodated in that quarter if they like the
fare and willing to run the chances. AS Mexico
is not Monarchy and upon the whole is considered
rather weakhanded. no proclamation need be appre-
hended. Were Cuba or Canada the proposed thea
tres treaty-venerating, despotism loving Presi-
dent would soon put the whole Navy in motion and
any amount of honest Indignation would be forthwith
manufactured by conscientious wing editors to crafty
the morbid sensbilites of their most gracious Ma
jesties Queen Isabella and Victoria. Will nobody
advise Mexico to " welcome the pirates with bloody
hands to hosPitable graves" We shall see what we
shall see."

Correspondence of the Philadelphia SUM-


WE'LL here we are again, in the midst of genu-
inc bank note panic. Since the stopPage of one or
two banks in New Jersy, our citizens have been
rather cautious about receiving the of other
soon take place among the whole lot Of them. This
feeling, of course, kept alive the excitement, until
eventually the expected crisis, with all its attend
ant and unfortunate circumstances, has burst full up
on US.
The circulation of small notes in this city is i'm
mense-in fact, small may be said to form al
most entirely circulating medium, and in conse-
quence of the panic at present exstlng 1t is plain to
be seen what depressing effect 1t must have upon
our business community. The cause of the trouble
tropcitan Bank. This Bank, it must be remembered,
receives despost the of all denominations of
the country banks and then presents those notes At
the country banks for redemption in specie, and was
from this fact that the banks were compelled to sus-
pend the payment OF specie for their notes.-the stop
page of one but the signal for another, and so
they GO fresh reports brought to the city every
hour through the day. and our people are afraid to
take notes of any kind. How it will end, no one
can tell. Poor people, are, however, the real sue
rers, as they generally are in bank suspensions.
Though most of small secured by public
stocks, and will eventually be redeemed, dollar for
dollar, still our poorer classes afford to lay
them by, they must live, and in making their pur-
chases they are shaved in many instances 25 cents
on the dollar, and in some even as Ugh so
cents.
The exchange Offices have been thronged all day
by persons anxious to sell their notes al almost any
sacrifice; | saw poor woman this morning sell
some small notes for IS cents for dollar told her
if she could possibly keep them short time, she
would receive their full value but she said if she
kept them any longer she afraid she would lose
all. And so it is in Hundreds Of instances-conh-
dence once lost in bank, is hard regain, and
should the present panic continue, trust violence
will be used by citizens though it is hard to tell
what may happen.
