''The Faubourg st, German has been
aroused from its temporary torpor by
one Of the most gorgeous fetes which
has ever been recorded in tho annals
Of fashion. Baroness Seilhete, mother
of the lovely Princess Saigon, gave
yesterday ball to which no less than
1000 guests wero invited. At tho

each fresh arrival by a tremendous
blow on the marble pavement. 5 The
guests, ushered up splendidly lighted
stairs, were received by forty servants,
in the livery Of the ;, ancient house of
Seilliere. The ball room was lighted
by 1000 wax lights, which shone on
fair women and brave mon until seven
in the morning. The supper room
had no less than 500 seats; each guest,
on taking his place, was taken in
charge by two servants, one Of whom
presented a card, on which the wines
were printed. and on tho other the
medu; to each card a pencil was at
tached, with which the recipients were
requested to mark tho wines and
dishes they wished to partaee Of;
Tableaux, illuminated with pink and
blue lights, adorned the sales, aas.

A Confederate Journal on The Stu
tfIt... alton


From the Jackson Miss Free Trader,
The greater portion of the Confed-
eracy is considerably used up. /, The
four years war has displayed the
valor of the South, and brought to
light vast resources undreamed of by
man 1t has demonstrated what neces-
sity could accomplish and produce !;
but it has evontuated in bringing us
back to tho starting point after scenes
of unparalleled distress a de!uge of
blood and a levelling of al classes.
minus an institution. That institii-
ton, which we have long thought
would not have survived this century
if left alone, is now very proportion
ately played out. The North has got
the elephant, and it will bother thom
to dispose of it. This thing of negro
equality may do for sensation, but
it won't stand the test, it won't last.
The North having made the most Of
it, having no longer occasion for it,
will find this elephant bad invest
ment, and will get rid Of it the best
way it can. .'n' ~
The South is not whipped nor con-
quered, but it is overr,in and subiu-
gated to great extent, and il mildly
treated will be to a great degree qui-
escent. 1t has become like fester-
ing sore, and to be healed and brought
back to its primitive condition will
require careful nursing and soothing
balms aud emullients.
Sick in body for nearly fortnight
past, from severe attack of bilious
fever and inhammatory rheumatism,
our mental system has doubtless moro
or less been affected by our physical
arrangement. But our head is clear
to tho act that though subjugated we
are not whipped--but being in Rome,
we must do as tho Romans do, and
we confess to being somewhat over
whelmed and demoralized, and very
considerably scattered. .i.l6as b
/
TnE SoUrt MEANS PEAcE.--Our
troops go everywhere in the South,
often in small detachments, and we
have no accounts Of their being mo-
Tested. Even negro soldiers are sent
to garrison points in South Carolina,
and no one NEEDLES with them. Our
steamers rly upon all the Southern
rivers and not shot is fired. All
this proves that the war is over, and
it must be bad government indeed,
that cannot under such circumstances,
restore harmony and cement peace.

ADVANCE IN CorgoN. 1t seems to
be generally believed that the re-
cent startling advance in the price of
cotton will not oaly be sustained, but
be still further improved. The now
universally conceded small amount of
land cultivated in cotton, the recent
disastrous casualties resulting in the
burning of immense quantities of the
''royal Of staples, y re-opening and re-
sumption of labor at most of the
foreign and domestic cotton mills
all these considerations combine to
enhance the price, and will, doubt
less, not cease to operate for years to
come. At all events, and in any rea-
sonable view of the case, our planters
may now go to work atstheir prelimi-
Eary arrangements for planting heavy
crops for the next year, well assured
that industry and enterprise will in
dubitably be rewarded with large re-
turns. Herald.

Bishop Wilmer, of Alabama, has

Bishop Wilmer, OF Alabama, has
replied to the order of Gen. Wood
closing the Episcopal Churches in
that State, refusing to recogize the
right OF any civil or military officer
to dictate to him in the performance
OF his duty in the Church of God.
But whilst he has neither the wish
nor the power to resist military force,
he enters his solemn protest against
the interference expressed in the
order issued by General Wood. The
latter responded by stating that if the
order was not obeyed, he would GER
tainly use military force in closing the
churches.

EVIDENTLY some hard characters up at OF.
tumwa. One of them made raid the other
day upon an article of the personal property
of our friend B. F. Roberts, Of the Valley
road. The Register thus relates and recon-
mends the Ottumwa Courier to copy:
One day during the present week, Mr.. Rob-
erts, of the D. V. X. r., stopped few min
utes at Ottumwa to get some refreshments at
a Restaurant near the Depot. The cry of
call aboard" started him in a hurry to the
cars and, through the forgetfulness induced
by haste he left valuable fur collar in the
Restaurant. He soon discovered his loss !;
and on his arrival at Independent, the second
station on the keokuk Road beyond Ottum-
wa, he telegraphed to a friend in the latter
place to take care of his property. He then
went aboard of the train coming westward,
and came back to Ottumwa. In the mean
time, the keeper Of the Restaurant. seeing
the lost collar, laid it aside with the statement
that the owner would be glad to give a little
sum for the recovery of his property. He
was overheard by certain Frank O. Neal, q
resident of Ottumwa, who stepped up to the
Restaurant man, and said:
"Tll take that article, if you please it s
mine"
The article was promptly handed to o. Neal,
and he went away with it. When Mr.. Rob
erts reached Ottumwa, and learned the state
of the case, be found ont, on inquiry, the res.
idence of O'Neal +; and going into the house,
the first thing which attracted his attention
was the collar lying on bed. 0'Neal was
absent. Mrs. 0'Neal was present.
That's my COLLAR said the persistent
railroad man. as he clutched the article, land
you may tell Frank Neal that he is very
mean man, and should be ranked among
thievesl My name is Roberts
He met with no interruption in carrying off
the property, and got back to the depot in
time to come westward on the train on which
he came up from independent
