Origin of the Hat.

We owe the hat, as we owe most of our
manufactures, to Asia. In Asia men first
learned the art of felting wool, so as to com.
pose the substratum of the fabric. Wool,
so long as it contains the natural yolk or an
imal grease, refuses to felt-that is, its fibers
will not mat together into compact and
cl0se-grained mass, such as constitutes felt.
When the yolk has been extracted by a
chemical process, the wool has tendency
to interlace its fibers and to adhere firmly to
the union thus formed and from very re-
mote period this secret was possessed by the
Orientals. The hats which are constantly
alluded to in Scripture-those for instance,
which were bound upon the heads of Shad-
rach, Meshach and Abednego, when they
were cast into the Assyrian furnace-were
genuine hats, but probably adorned by tur-
ban cloths wound about them. have seen
the self-same hats-tall, narrow cy linders of
gray felt, surrounded by handkerchief OF
cloth-on the heads Of the Jews of Asia.
Nor was the use of the hat a Hebrew monop.
oily. The Kurds, Persians, Armenians, and
some tribes of Turks and Tartars, wear the
hat, as their fathers did in Saladin's day.
The high lambs wool bonnet of Persia, is
but brimless hat, with nap of exagggera,
ted roughness. The HISTORIAN Christians
of Kurdistan wear hats almost exactly SINH
lar to battered Irish caubeen, only of Q
brown or dirty white color. Throughout the
East the dervishes and wandering fakirs may
be known by tall narrow hat Of light hueC
felt, adorned by greasy rag, and towering
upward like chimney pot. t.-lChambers

Distinguished Arrivals.

The Secretary of War, Hon. Simon Cam
eron, and Adjutant General Thomas, arrived
in this city this morning, from Washington.
They are here, of course, upon public bu-
siness. Ifit has reference to Fremont and his
military action, let them go into the army
which he has organized, and among the
people who have been eye witnesses Of what
he has done since the 23d of July, and they
will get healthful, truthful accounts Of the
estimate put upon Fremont's exertious in
an other quarter, among disappointed poll
tcisns, disappointed contractors, and sore
heads generally, whose habit it is to grum-
BILE at anything that does not exactly fall in
with their notions, they may hear different
stories, greatly heightened by malignant ha-
tired of man who would not yield up his
Judgment to their interested suggestions.
Their visit may be, however, turned to good,
in examining the expenditures incurred and
the immense amount of money due by the
Government toa large number of individ-
uais, on account of supplies furnished for
the army in its various departments We
hope, indeed, that this is the principal OBJ
ject of the visit of these prominent agents Of
the Government. -[St Louis Republican.

What is a Provost Marshal ?

The Washington correspondent Of the
Philadelphia Press thus explains what Q
Provost Marshal is:
What is your idea of Provost Marshal
Mine has always been something terrible.
A Minotsur in the labyrinths of treason u
deyour unsuspecting gSecessionists; an Argus
whose hundred eyes no Tyre can ull TO sieep
or, II you like it better, Briareus, tor we
are told that, when treason menaced the
throne ofJupiter, the hundred handed giant
ascended the heavens and so terrified the
conspirators by his fierce and threatening
looks, that they desisted. You never see
Provost Marshal; you never hear him.
but his eyes are everywhere.
Treason has been whispered in the morn
ing and the traitor Is in Fort Lafayette before

OF gallantry. either, for when certain very
agreeable ladies Of this town met over the
tea.table to continue their correspondence
with their friends and adorers in Richmond,
the Provost Marshal quietly took possession
OF their letters and placed guard over their
dwellings. He haunts treason like a shadow,
and has the strangest way of going down to
the bottom Of peoples trunks, of opening
peoples bureau drawers, of discovering
false floors III carriages, of dragging to the
light queer documents. and maps, and pri-
vate communications intended for the ediGca
ton of j. Davis IL Go.
Here, in Washington, you cannot escape
him. He puts out the fires, arrests disorder
~ citizens, aud gets into the private entrance
Of dram shops and gambling saloons. He
has spoiled many a good drink, and broken
mp many game ofiaro and monte. He is the
natural foe Of suffers, and has singular
fashion Of going down to the bottom of
wagons and exploring suspicious barrels A
day or two since, saw wagon-load of bread
going across the Long Bridge. Bread is an
innocent article, but presently corporal
mounted behind, and sent his bayonet bur-
rowing among the loaves. A moment more
and the loaves were gently heaped on one
side and dozen kegs of beer were rolled
into quarters. By order of the Provost
Marshal
Everybody knows that our Provost Mar.
shal is Brigadicr General Andrew Porter
Every body here calls him ANDY and SC
would |, but he is military man, and
don't want to be too familiar | don't SEE
how they ever made him Provost Marshal
or rather the representative of so mucl
awe, power and cunning. He has one Of
those kind, genial, honest faces which yol
make up in Lancaster county, and is JUS
such man as you would gladly accept as al
escort home if you met him on dark night
He is not bit classical-nor would yo
mistake him for either an Argus or Mino
taur, or heathenish or fabulous; but a gallau
good fellow, who loves his country, hate
traitors, and is a natural foe of cowardic
and treachery Never shrinking duty
never walking away from danger, with tn
conscience Of this fight deep in his soul,
type and representative of your genuin
Pennsylvania eentlemen-this is Andre,
Porter. And out of this man they hav
made Provost Marshal.

A Fleeing Army.

The great Secession army, commanded
by Gen. Price, which was to seize Jefferson
City, capture St. Louis. and drive every
Federal soldier from the soil of Missouri
has departed. The Confederates are feet
of foot, and move with extraordinary celer-
ity. They are all a-dodging. Nobody knows
precisely how far they may not have got by
this time, but it is very certain they have
taken the road furthest off from Gen. Fre-
mont and his columns. They will not stop
and show fight, ifthey can helpit Arkansas

And 80 ends one phase of the movements

We do not wonder that many of the fol-
lowers of the rebel army have become disgust
ed with the temporizing, dilatory and de-
lusive policy of the Secession leaders, and
deserted The forces of Gen. Price, which
numbered fifty thousand or upward at Lex.
ington, have been reduced to forty thousand
or less. The promises of Jackson & Co.
have not been kept, and the Union pros.
poets in this State brighten day by day.
Every one must see that, although the Con
federates may be able to commit unnumher
cd depredations in some portions Of Missouri
may harass and menace the loyal citizen.
for some time longer-the attempt to con
quer or subdue the State is an enormou,
failure. The enemy knows and feels it
He would be glad, no doubt, to have thu
Federal Government submit to the loss OF
so important tract of country, but can hav,
no hope beyond such REIMBURSEMENT by
the War Department at Washington. The
question is, shall the Confederates be allow
ed to make a plaything Of Missouri? Gen
Fremont will answer this question in good
time st. Louis Republican.
