THE sHoRr DREss.-A fashion writer, dating
from Paris, says Of the short dress y
This is the greatest novelty of the season. 1T
remains to be seen whether it Will find the same
favor in the eyes Of the American ladies that it has
already in the eyes of the Pdrisiennes.
The principal objection to it here will be that it
is only designed for the street, and isnot graceful
in the house; this, iu our opinion, is recon-
mendation One of the faults of our style of
dressing Is its mixed character--its want of dis
tinctiyeness, and adaptation to separate uses.
Half the women wear the same dress in the
street that they wear in the drawing. some
times trailing, sometimes caught up with some one
of the half-dozen contriyancea for raising ladies'
dresses, bRt either way inevitably sporting it A
neat short dress, similar to the modes we have
seen, is surelya greatimprovement on this method,
or, rather, want Of method, and is not only con-
yenent but in quiet c0lors with accurately fitting
gloves, and handsome dark bottines, is immensely
becoming to all but very tall women.
Tie most useful Scotch dresses are made of
| Scotch Winsey, the skirt gored and cut out in
| vandykes, or trimmed with several rows of mar
row jet braid, over petticoat stimulated by a
deep braid Of the same material putupon tWilled
| cotton, and finished round the bottom with fiat
quilting or pleating, put on with broader braid
than that upon the upper skirt. The body is not
cntin one with the skirt, but has little polka at
tached, which is cut out in short, square appels,
and bound with gallOon or braid. a short sac
pdlet0t is trimmed with one rev Of the broader
braid, band Of the same upon the top and bottom
of the sleeves, and reins at the back. This COM
pletes the toilette.
Very little material is required for short gored
dress, especially if the petticoat is stimulated in
some othercolor.
Gray short dress, with blue petticoat, box
lpleated, is a good combination; or brown with
green or black, or black with black and scarlet,
or green with purple and black.

First. Thatthere are Two asylums for the insane
within the limits Of the State OF Louisiana, VIZ 4
the State Asylum, at Jackson, and the City Asy-
lam, under the care and patronage Of the munich
pal authorities Of New Orleans.
Second, Il have never heard Of any question
arising on the part Of the superintendent OF the
State Asylum touching distinction OF raessse
color in the admission or non-admisson of insane
persons.
Third. All persons, temporarily insane, are,
(Withont reference to race or color,1 admitted to
fhe City Insane Asylum. When the city physician
ia attendance pronounoes q patient committed as
temporarily insane to be incurably insane, he or
she IS sent In charge the sheriff OF the parish
Of orleans to.tle State Asylum at jackson.
1T is incumbent on me to state, IN this connec-

City Asylum Is oyeTcroEaed. rms hnllqing 70 sit

Parish Prison formerly assigned to insane persons
and then as now used as military prison, bt

thereto, the general promised to vaeate the prem
