1t would appear as if the fair sex were now re-
turning, little by little, to the fashions of Mother
Eve. Those of the Directorie are decidedly in
vogue-very short waists, no crinoline, and long
hanging gowns, the hair cut like bows and
curled, with large chiquon at the back of the
head. Diamonds are very much worn, and ear
rings are as long as ones arm.
The gentlemen are again taking to tight trow.
sers similar to those worn in 1910, wastcoats open
with large collar, showing the shirt front, which
is generally elaborately embroidered. Jewelry is
much the fashion, and the silders again in favor.

LETTER FROM MEXICO.

MATAMoEos, MEXICO, Feb. 18th, 1866.
These few lines are droppedto catch the steamer
at Brazos, and let you know that there is no news
OF any particular importance or interest on either
side of the river.
Inc reported approach to this place from Mon
terey OF 1000 Imperial troops under Lopez has
caused rise In the prices of all kinds of merchan-
disc, and the population generally seem to be in
llVeHer and pleasanter mood than usual
Canales and Escobedo, with their commands,

Will oppose, the march of the Imperialists is some
thing not as yet heard of.
Latest reports represent Cortina smoking Mi.
cawber cigars, at his rancho on the Texas side,
twenty miles above Brownsville
Brownsville is all alive with paid off and mus.
tered out United States troops, spending their
money free, and some getting on spree and cut
ting up once in a while.
To Messrs. Charles C. Hoyt and NJ. D. Miller the
gentlemany agents of the Southern Express Com
pany in Brownsville, am indebted for the priyi-
lege OF sending communications to Brazos, which
by their conveyance is mostly ahead of the mail.
p. S,--Lest the above letter should be deemed
too short and dry, | will append a scene at the
terry this morning which l witnessed. Three
Ethiopian gentlemen in dandy citizens dress got
out of the skf on the Mexican side, and settle d
with the peon ferryman. When about fifty yards
oil, they were called back by great outcry and
pantomlme of the peon. "What de malta p,
asked one of the curly-headed gents, The peon
jabbered, and showed him dime which he had
unwittingly taken for a bit as ferriage for two.
Darkey didn't understand peon, peon didn't
understand darkey. They went on in violent
alteration of words, neither understanding the
other. Finally bystander, who spoke both Ian
guages, interferel, and explained to darkey that
Mexcans didn't take dimes for bits, and that the
ferryman wanted bit, or two cents and half
more Darkey laughed and sad "Oh, dat's it,
is it well well!' He drew forth handful of
specie and ished out smooth coin of the denomi-
nation bit" As he handed it over and redeemed
the dime, he said, "Dar, reckon you's all right
now, and if you isn't, I'll give you dolla; by de
Lord, l always has money huff to pay my way
wharever l goes" And then the three gents
took their way up hill, laughing heartily at the
parsimony of the stupid Mexican boatman.

Those who have anticipated large revenue
from the sale of contiscated property at the South
will be surprised to learn that the proceeds since
the close Of the rebellion do not amount to more
than $4,000. i'
The gross sales have amounted to manv times
one hundred and twenty thousand dollars, but we
are not surprised to hear that the nett results are
only so much. Commissions are very heavy
lately, and other expenses in proportion. The
government has concluded to discontinue the
treasury agency system in the South, for the
reason that it does not pay expenses
