FASHIONS OF THE SOUTH DURING
THE WAR.

Fashion, says the Richmond Times, be-

During the war man was deemed fortu-
nate if he owned a couple of fig bushes, for
then he vas sure of having his family pro-
vided with suit of primitive clothes, as
good as that worn by our first parents, if
things came to the worst. Men and wo-
men did not care much what they wore,
so they wore something. Nor was the
style or cut of garments much regarded,
for there was sort of carnival of old
clothes. 1t was not uncommon to meet a
gentleman with a coat or pantaleons which
looked as if they had been cut out with a
broad-axe, and nailed together hurriedly
by a rough carpenter.
The patterns, too, were as strongly
spiced with variety, as well as with the
odor of great antiquity. The old swallow

PROMPT PAYMENT or SMALL
DEBTS. 80

The Philadelphia Ledger offers some
very sensible remarks in this connection.

large number of small accounts, some of
which have been standing six months or
more, too small to send in individually,
as the items one by one were purchased,
but often amounting in the aggregate to
quite serious portion of the capital of
those who have given the required cred
it. The future success of the tradesmen,
mechanics and others to whom these
small bills arc due, depends in many
cases on the prompt payment, and they
can be paid easily and at once aud with
out Inconvenience by most of those who
owe accounts Of this sort but which Of
ten are neglected, to the great incon-
venience and loss of the creditor.
There are many causes which tend to
produce this want of promptness of which
we speak, and from the effects of which
every man in business suffers more or
less. The most common of these is care
lessness. The sum is but trihe, and
a few of the items of the bill, perhaps.

tice that the bill remains unpaid brings
a search, an examination of the items,
and, after two or three delays. a settle

ly conceive how much some of their
creditors have watched and waited for
the coming in of that small account.
They have, perhaps, large list of
such accounts at their fingers ends con-

Everybody knows they will ray. and are
willing to pay, price, interest, or any
thing else, but they are too busy to be
troubled, and those who trust them are
meanwhile embarrassed by their fear OF
giving offense. The large creditor can
take the debtor by the throat and say,
"Pay me that thou owcst," but it would
Dfeak up connection on some OF our
retail streets to be known to do such an
impolite action for small accounts against
persons known to be good for thousands.
There are others who do not pay their
small debts punctually, from sheer mean
ness, though they would have it careless
ness. They treat these debts lightly
enough, as of no consequence, when real
ly it is morbid dislike to pay any one a
cent until actually compelled, that leads to
all the delay. While they are charging
interest on all that is due them, they will
not draw cent to pay small debt justly
due. In some cases it is worse than mean
ness-the hope Of wearing ont a creditor
by not paying little bill. too small for
him conveniently to sue upon.
