The New style Of Dress.

The new style of dress is just as unique as
tbat Of the bonnet. 1t is masculine and mil.
.tary. Little by little the feminine garb Of

male attire, and now it completes the usur
patton The coat. vest, boots, are all appro-
priated. Whether the 'unmentionables'
remained covered is question that may he

The war feeling has reached. at last the fash

eff. enough men wear military moustaehes
and caps; men who wouldn't lace an exas

Now the wo EN- are prepared TO take their

auiets, tight sleeves, fatigue jackets. long coat

Jackets OF various kind are in vogue, all with

CorPERnEAps CoNFarNDgD.-The Rev.
Col Mn~iy. In Il speech at Columbus. Oaio.
said that he had prayed the Almighty to 60
to Chicago and cinfou.sd the enemies of the
caa,ltry. and he h,,iieved lie had done so.-
The only way the Lnrd had heen able to
frus'raie the i.uildins Of Babel was by con-
founding the language of the builders 50 that
they could not understand each other. and
lust in this way lie had destroyed the power
p;.the Cnpperheads at Chicago. They say
peace when they mean war. and war when
they mean peace. AMI hence their counsels
had heen discancerted and their efforts would
come to naught.

The DlscovERF OF THE BAY OF SAN Fran
cIsco 1t is supposed that the Bay Of San
Francisco was first discovered in the month
Of October, 1869, hy Friar Juan Crespi. who
had started from San Diego on the llth OF
Ju'v previous, at the head of party of sol
diers, with instructions to found Mission
on the Bay of Monterey. Coming north
wards he reached that Bay near the mouth
of Salinas River. and finding no harbor there,
he determined to continue his journey IN the
hope of finding better site for Mission
He found a magnificent bay. believed that be
was the first white man to discover IT.. ana
named it after the founder Of his monastic or
der. San Francisco. Thus it was that the
bay obtained the name which itstili has, and
which has been communicated to the Missicn
and city.
