\ WOMAN OF Coon TAsrE-The follow

Lodon Quarterly Reriew
You see this lady turning cold eye
to the assurances of shopmen and the rec
concentrations of mlliners. She cares
not how original pattern may be, ii it
be ugly-or how recent a shape, ii 1t be
awkward Whatever law fashion die
tates. she follows law Of her own, and is
never behind it. She wears very bcauti-
tul things which people generally suppose
70 be brought from Paris, or, at least,
made by French millincr, 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 con-
trary, she wears many cheap dress, but
it is always pretty-anl many an old one
but it is always good. She deals in no
gaudy confusion Of colors, nor does She
affect stupid sobricty; but she either
refreshcs you with a spirited contrast
or composcs you with judlclous harmo-
ny. Not scrap OF tinsel or trumpery
appears upon her She puts no faith in
velvet bands, or gilt buttons, or twisted
cording. She is quite aware, however,
that the garnish is as important as the
dress; all her inner borders are delicate
and fresh and should anything peep out
which is not intended to be seen, 1t Is
quite as much so as that which is. After
all, there is no great art either in her
fashions or her materials. The secret
simply consists in her knowing the three
grand uniticS Of drcss--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 costume will not be
disappointed in the wearer She may not
be handsome, nor accomplished, but we
will answer for her being even tempered

COMMODORE DGpoNr.-Commodore Sam
uel +. Dupont, the commander OF the
Federal naval forces of the late exPedi-
ton. is native of New jersey, but re-
ceiyed his appointment into the navy from
the State OF Delaware, of which he is a
citizen His original entry into the ser
vice of his country WIS on the 18th OF
December, lsl5 he has been, therefore,
nearly forty.six years in the service. Up
to the present time, Commodore Dupont
has spt mt nearly twenty-five years on sea,
eight and half years IN active duty on
shore. and, the balance Of his time has
been unemp ployed. His present commis-
tsion bears date September II, 1850. He
was last at sea in May, 1889; and from
shat date until ordered to join the naval
expedition, he occupied the post of Conn
mandant OF the Navy Yard in Philadel-
phia. Among the important positiane
that Commodore Dupont has filled s,ns
he has been in the navy are the4olfoHing :;
In June, 1886, Commodore Dupont,
then Lieutenant, commandedihe Warren,
now tue stCTcShip stdtiohSu "S f'""'"'"'

of Comulpdos1 A, j. Dallas, cruising in

commanded fhx 1nssa States brig Perry,
while on the way q e de yaneiro, bound

he also commanded thg gfr!gate Congress.

1916, he was commander of the sloop-of-
war Cyane, at the time attached to the
squadron of Commodores w. B. Shubrick
and Thomas A. c. Jones, in the Pacific.
Commodore Dupont is man little
past what is usually termed the prime OF
life, but is possessed of all the vigor, bod
lily strength and ambition that usually
characterizes younger men.

all that had occurred, concluding with
the search of the soldiers, and his escape
into the loft above.
Thank God it is in my power to aid
you, sir" were the first words Of the
girl, spoken with look and feeling of
sympathy that made the heart of the
soldier bound with strange emotions.
She then went on to tell him that a
cousin from New Jersey, about his size
and build, and looking not unlike him,
was then on visit to the family, having
a pass from Gen Howe. This pass she
had that evening been looking at, and by
accident it was now in her possession, the
cousin having gone out with the rest of
the family, and forgotten it.
Take it and fly, and may God pre-
serve youn she said. q can arrange it
with my kinsman," she continued: L
can have lost it, and he can easily pro-
cure another
She hurried him down stairs, throwing
cloak over his shoulders on the way,
which she insisted upon his wearing, say
ing it had belonged to deceased brother,
and he could return it at any future time.
She then hastcned to get the pass, which
she placed in his hand, and urged him to
90 at once.
If | could but see my mother for a
moment ~ he said.
" No, no-leave all to mc--I will cx-
plain all to her-go while you can, before
it is too late"
God in heaven bless you, sweet
lady, he said, impulsively seizing her
hand and touching it with his lips. |
will never forget you"
The next minute he was gone. He
escaped. And true to his declaration, he
never did forget the sweet girl who be-
friended him in his hour of peril. Years
after, the honored wife Of General Rug
giles was many time heard to tell of
her first romantic meeting with him she
loved, then a hunted fugitive from the
Continental army.

Tongue cannot express
The great JOY of the Press.
When delinquents have paid the old score,
Printers all the day long
Labor hard for song
A fate that is hard all agree
They have worked night and day
And OF course want their pay,
To buy sugar, and coffee, and tea.
