The weekly Ottumwa courier. [volume] (Ottumwa, Iowa) 1857-1872, 1861-10-02

a NOVEL SIGHT.--A procession of several
Hundred stout negro men, members OF the
domestic institution" marched through our
streets yesterday in military order, under
the command of Confederate officers They
were all armed and equipped, with shovels,
axes, blankets, &c. A merrier set were new
er seen. They were brimfull of patriotism,
shouting for jeff. Davis and singing war
songs, and each looked as if1hey only want
ed the privilege of shooting an abolitionist
An abolitionist could not have locked up
on this body of colored recruits of the South
ern army without strongly suspecting that
his intense sympathy for the "poor slave"
was not appreciated, that it was wasted on
an ungrateful subject. s4
The arms Of these colored warriors We're
rather mysterious. Could it be that those
cleaning axes were intended to drive into
the thick skulls of abolitionists the truth, to
which they are wifully blind, that their in
terfcrence in behalf of Southern slaves is
neither appreciated nor desired; or that
these shoyels were intended to dig trenches
| for the interment Of their carcasses Itmay
be that the shovels are to be used in digging
bitches, throwing up brcastworks, or the
construction of masked batteries, those
denominations to every abolition Paul Pry
who is so unlucky as to stumble upon item.
Il Nemphis Aralanche, Sept. Sd.
We suppose the gentlemen who have been
alarmed by Gen. Fremont's proclamation,
would think it a terrible thing to deprive
these negroes Of their masters and dispose
of the members of the domestic institution, ).
in such way as not to put the expensesf
taking care of them upon the Governyenl.

A Woman of Coed Taste.

You see this lady turning cold eye 10
the assurances ot shopmen and the recon-
mendaton ofmilliners. She cares not how
original PATTERN may be, if it be awkward
Whatever laws fashion dictates, she follows
a law Of her own, and il never behind it
She wears very beautiful things which peo.
pie generally suppose to be fetched from
Paris, is, or, at least made by French mil
liner, but which as often are bought at the
nearest town and made up by her own maid.
Not that her costume is either rich or new
on the contrary, she wears many cheap
dress, but it is always good. She deals in
no gaudy confusion Of colors, nor does she
effect studied sobriety; she either refresh
es you with a spirited contrast, or composes
you with ajudicious harmony. Not scrap
of tinsel OF trnmpcry appears upon her. She
puts 70 faith in velvet bands, gilt buttons,
or twisted cording. She is quite aware,
however, that the guarnish is as important
as the dress, all her inner borders and bead
ings are delicate and fresh: and should any
thing peep, but which is not intended to be
seen, it is quite as much SO as that which
is. After all, there is no great art either in
her fashions or her material The secret
simply consists in her knowledge, the three
unite of dress-her own station, her own
age, and her own points. And no woman
can dress well who does not. After this
we need not say that whoever is attracted
by the costumes will not be disappointed IN
the wearer She may not be handsome nor
accomplished, but we will answer for her be-
ing eyeh tempered, well informed, thorough
ly sensible, and complete lady"
