LADIES DRESSES. The New York Commercial
Advertiser, says the new edition of ?" Nothing to
wearn makes the following shameful attack upon
whole class of society:
1t is well known to those who are in turn well
known to Stewart, and who stand on his books
rated A No. l, for the length of their bills, that
the fitting out of a young lady nowadays, for
winter season in town, or q summer season at a
watering place, assimilates more nearly to pre-
pairing vessel for a voyage around the world
than any other analogous undertaking. It even
exceeds in importance the latter enterprise, for
to ride the severest gale in every variety of Cline
the most prudent navigator requires but two or
three sets Of sails, while the reader probably
knows in his own limited circle, a score of fair
danes who never launch their irail banks on the
summer sea, without at least two score Of dresses
with laces and crinoline to match. It was a de-
lightful trait in the character Of Alfred Jingle lin
the Pickwick Papers) that while he had forty
| coats Of his own in packing cases coming around
\ by sea, he condescended to travel with his per-
sonal luggage in a brown paper parcel, and when
l happening upon an unexpected merry making
with nothing to wear, he adapted hims elf to
circumstances and borrowed another mans coat
| Miss Flora McFlimsey, the heiress of this little
episode, was made of sterner stuff, and incapable
OF so monstrous breach OF the conventionalites
of society.

A FEMALE CHARIOT RAoE.-A novel exhibition
came off on Tuesday at Suffolk Park--a repetition
Of one thar took place in New York some time
ago. 1t was a race of two females, each driving
a team of blooded horses harnessed to a Roman
chariot The ladies were announced as Miss Vir-
ginia Mason, of New York, and Miss 3. T. S., of
Philadelphia. They made theip appearance in
Amazonian costume, and started in their round
upon the track at P. NJ. The prize was for the
best two in three. The New York girl badly sold
| the other one. She allowed her to keep pd1'i
passa until near the end of the circle, when she
dashed ahead. The first heat was done is 2:255,
and the second in 2:30. The Philadelphia chariot
ess resolved never to give it up so, demanded a
third chance. The New Yorkeress won it with
ease in 2:l5. There was nothing like the crowd
anticipated. There were scarce q thousand people
upon the ground .-[Phil. Amer

A YouTHwH NEVER SAW A WOMAN. Meadows
history of the Chinese, lately published in Lon
don, in a capter on love, has the following story
A Chinese who had been disappointed in mar
risge, and had grieYously suffered through women
in many other ways retired with hsiHfant son to the
peaks of mountain range in kweichoo, to a spot
quite inaccessible to little footed Chinese women.
He trained the boy TO worship the gods and stand
mentioned women to him, always descending the
mountain alone to buy food. At length however,
the inhrmities Of age compelled him to take the
young man with him to carry the heavy bag of
rice. AS they were leaving the market town to-
gether, the son suddenly stopped short and point
ing TO three approaching objects, cried, Father
what are those things Look look what are
they" The father Instantly answered with the
peremptory order, Turn away your head they
are deylisf" The son in some alarm turned away,
noucing tnat the eyll things were gazing at him
| with surprise from behind their fans. He walked
70 me mountain in silence eat no supper and from
| tnas daY lost his appetite and was afflicted with
melancholy. For some time his troubled and
anxious parent could get no satisfactory answer to
MS inquiries, but at length the young man burst

General Frank =. Blair, OF Missouri, one
of the few Republican politicians who dis
! tinguished himself by personal galantry in
the war, has lately written a letter to q
meeting in st. Louis, in which he gives
utteance to the following magnanimou>
and generous sentiments. lie says in speak
Of the Radicals:
"Snch persons are most persistent in urg.
| ing measures Of unncce sary harshncss and
! indignity, III order to iTIitate and goad our
vanqulshed opponents intoacts Of resistance
| which will Justify the infiction Of still grea,
ter cruelty. If those brave and uutortu
nate people could only be driven by their
insults and contume|y to such acts, it would
fill the soul Of their malignant persecutors
with unsfeakable JOY and satisfaction, be-
cause it would afford the pretext they seek,
to deny to the Southern people the rights
of trcemen and free States. These Jabo
bins feel and know that it is necessary to
dstranchise the white race at the South as
affording them their only chance Of retain
ing power. and position.
"What civilized nation on earth would
hesitate an instant, if the opportunity Of
lered, to incorporate with themselves the
brave and heroic people of the. South,
WHOSE iOfLluue ana GHuurduce, III HIS
taken cause, challenge the admiration and
Respect of the world? Would France or
England, or any other civilized power, hesi-
tate to give to such men the full and equal
rights accorded to all other citizens? Would
not those nations be mcst happy to claim,
as their own, such men as Lee and johnson
and host of othsfs, and to confer upon
these living heroesehe rewards which genius
and courage have always conmandcd?-
Would they fail to honor AMI cherish. as
part of their own glory, the memory of that
iustrious throng Of the dead, lead by
Stonewal Jackson? Their fame belong to
our name and nation, and their survivors
animated by an equal courage and devotion,
and inspired by what we hope and le'ie,e
is a better cause, will hereafter contribute
equally with the noble spiri of the North
to the renown of our great Republic.
Fellow citizens, those who wish well to
the country, and would secury its greatest
happiness, can have no higher aspiration
than that the pcdce you celebrate may be
perpetual With respect, yours,
"FRANK 2. BLAIR.
