THE Express has started the Anti-Derby-
hattie movement, and the cry against these
abominabIe " fast " head coverings increases.
Here is the latest joke on the fashion. The
usher Of the Troy Opera House, few even
ings ago, perceived in a front seat person
arraved in black broadcloth and wearing a
round-crowned felt hat The attentive usher
hurried down the aisle, and touched the
spectator on the shoulder with " You must
take off your hat, sir" The head turned
round and a pair of feminine eyes gave the
usher an indi gnant look he retired with an
al beg your pardon, madam" and the audi
ence testified their appreciation OF the Incl
dent by subdued applause.

This distinguished officer, who will ever be
associated in the public mind with the cher

St. Charles Hotel. He is still suffering
slightly from a severe wound received at the
battle of the Wilderness. We are gratified
to learn that there is a prospect that this gal

receive from our citizens will confirm him in
the purpose which we understand he enter

The DIsMEMBERMENT OF VIRGINIA
Several of the Virginia newspapers are dis
cussing with much earnestness the FEAST
bility of restoring that State to the stdtu quo
ante beItlan. They argue that the Wheeling
Alexandria Legislature was war necessity;
but the rebellion being suppressed, they ask
if Congress will not review its action in dis
Numbering State, and remit the question
back to the people. They especially protest
against the claim of West Virginia to the
counties Of Berkeley and Jefferson. Anoth-
or slice off is more than they are willing to
spare.

MAsHINaroN. November q, 1865.


To B. F. Perry, Provisional Governor:
| do not think it necessary for the MEM
bers elect for South Carolina to be present at
the organization of Congress. On the con-
trary, it will be better policy to present their
certificates of election after the two Houses
are organized, which will then be simple
question, under the constitution of the mem
bers taking their seats. Each House must
Judge for itself, the election returns and quail
ifcations of its own members. As to what
the two Houses will do in reference TO the
oath now required to be taken, before the
members can take their seats, is unknown to
me; and do not like to predict. But upon
the whole, l am of opinion that it would be
better for the question to come up and be
disposed of after the two Houses have been
organized. / hope your Legislature will
adopt code in reference to free persons Of
color that will be acceptable to the country,
at the same time doing justice to the white
and colored population

Joseph BOnRpaEte and the
Crown of Mexico.

Ii may not be forgotten that member Of
the Bonsparte family was offered forty years
ago the crown of Mexico The story is told
BY the Emperor himself in his sketch of Jo-
seph, eldest brother Of the frst Napoleon -
"While Joseph was living, as philosopher,
on the banks of the Delaware, thinking OF
nothing but of doing good to those around
him, he received q proposal which surprised
and touched him. A deputAtion Of Mexicaus
came to him to place st his disposal the crown
Of Mexico. The ex.King Of Naples and
Spain answered the dsputation nearly in
these terms 4 have borne two crowns and
] would not Take single step for third.
Ncthing can be more hattering TO me than to
ses men who, when was in Madrid, refused
to recognize my authority, come now 10 my
exile TO ask Of me 10 put myself at their head.
But do not believe that the throne you wish
TO raise up can make you happy; aud every
day spend on the hospitable soil OF the United
States proves TO me more aud more the ex.
celence OF Republican institutions for Amer
lea. Preserve them, then, as the precioas

The WAY Id Works.

We see it stated that before the war a
person worked but half day in the week
for the Government, and the remaining
five and half days for himself; but now,
owing to the heavy taxation, which tho
country viii have to bear for several years
to come, and of which the laboring classes
will have to bear their share, a man will
have to work two days for the Govern
ment, leaving but four for his own bene
fit.

Attorney General Speed is said to have
written letter in reply to certain queries
addressed him by the War Department,
in which he is understood to take the
ground that paroled officers of Lees army
who formerly resided in Washington, and
afterward took up residence in the South
in order to aid in the rebellion, have no
right under the terms of surrender to re-
turn to the national capital.
