Inc New 1ofR deFdtu'S FASHION cor
respondent" writes from Paris:
Crinoline is defending her position
inch by inch. Like all those who have
to force themselves before the public,
and who have eventually gained popu-
larity, she sees no reason why she
should lose the favor she has made such
strenuous efforts TO acquire, and rather
than be annihilated, prefers capitnla-
lion. AS 1t Is, we find her giving way
to tue most extortionate demands,
twisting and bending herself all shapes
10 make room for the old upstart q
JourTedW, or consentinEto disappear en-
lirely under the "robs PrinCesse," while
she leaves all herstill faithful partisans
in very false positions.
Icannot be too particular in impress.
ing on your readers the necessity OF
wearing scarcely any crinoline under
short skirts; short are those which do
not quite reach the ankle. When worn
with long gored robes crinoline must
DO extremely plant, following the cut
Of the skirt with proper graduation. 1t
may be II difficult task for the dress
maker, but II her under steel work Is
at all wiry robe empire will be any
thing but graceful, and the wearer
would do well 10 prefera plain tiounced
petticoat over shorter stiff one. The
best course to follow as rule for the
present would be TO discard hoops un.
der short skirts, and simply have all
those taken in round the pre-existing
train crinOlines. This is the state of
things in Paris, although cages In for
mer dimensions are still seen swinging
TO and fro in shop windows.

RenoNntlng u Poor Fnrnn.

A farmer in Pennsylvania recently
sent to the Germantown Telegraph an
account OF his operations on poor,
worn out farm, which he bought sever
al yenrs since. Upon the improved pOr-
ton of the land scarcely anything could
be made to grow. Fortunately there
was lime stone within reach, and the
second year n quantity was converted
into lime, and iifly bushels TO the mere
applied. Corn was planted, but the
yield was very poor. Oats followed the
next year, when II marked improve
mCnt In yield was notiCed-the product
being forty bushels to the mere. The
land wns seeded Mt the same time, to
clover and timothy, aud II fine crop of
each produced two seasons In success
sion. The ground was then broken up
ugnin, aud fifty bushels of lime to the
acre sown upon it.. 1t was then plant
ed, and the result wns eighty bushels
Of good corn to the acre, exclusive OF
the OilHl. No manure was used or 9TH
cr fertilizer besides tho lime, except II
handful of plaster to II hill. by the use
of lime, nnd the manure naturally pro-
duccd from limited amount Of stock,
the owner Of the place has SO improved
its prOduCtivcnCss us to appreciate It's
value nearly fOuriOld. 1t cost Origi'
nully thirty dollars per mere. An offer
Of one hundred md ten dollars per acre
for 1t has been declined.

One pound of green copperas, costing
seven cents, dissolved in one quart OF
water, and poured down privy, will
etIectually concentrate and destroy the
foulest smells. For water closets, on
board ships and steamboats,, about ho-
tells and other places, there is nothing
so nice to cleanse and purify as simple
green copperas dissolved in water; and
for sick rooms 1t may be placed under
the bed in anything that will hold
water, and thus render hospital or
other place where there are sick per-
sons, free from unpleasant smells. For
butchers stalls, fish markets, slaughter
houses, sinks, and wherever there nre
putrid and offensive gasses, dissolve
copperas and sprinkle It about, and in
very few days the "bad smell" will
pnss away. If cat, rat or mouse dies
about the house, and sends forth an
offensive gus, place some dissolved
copperas in a cup or jar, anywhere
within "smelling distance" and the
cure is sure. l have known stock of

A FEW months ago Charles V. Culver
wns at the head Of one of the most sue
cessful banking houses at New York,
Culver, Penn Il Co., and was estnb-
fishing banks, building railroads,
founding and endOwing churches
and colleges in the oil regions of Penn
sylvania. Ho was elected to Congress
from the twentieth Pennsylvania dis
trict, though he offered the convention
that nominated him $4,000 for party
purposes irthey would leave him TO his
business. But just then he was pros.
porous, rising, and popular, and 1t is in
the genius Of American politics to ele-
vnte such men to public offices. A few
weeks ago the dullnCss of the oil trade
and the extent of his business ventures
and speculNtions necessitntcd the sus-
pension of Mr.. Culvcr's firm, and now
he has gone to jail to await trial on the
charge OF fraudulently obtaining from
the Office Of the Auditor General of
Pennsylvania, the bonds Of the Petro-
loum and Venango Banks.

My friends, sin makes the purtiest
young man ugly-ah. Itell you how /
know-ah. was coming to church to-
day, when I saw some men in the
road.ah, and thought one Of them the
purtIest young man ever saw in my
iiru.ah. And us drew nigh unto them,
/ discovered they were playing at
marvels; and that they all drew nigh
unto IL place what they called taw, and
they marveled-nh. And when he mar-
veled he jumped up and tapped his
hands like II rooster does his wings-ah,
and said: ~ wish mny be ID If l
hain't fat-ah! And oh, my friends,
then thought that he was the ugliest
man that ever saw in my liie.ah. And
| opened my mouth and spHke unto
him thus:-says "Young man, this is
not the way to salvation-ah." And he
said: Look here, old hoss, if you had
been salivated ns bad rs l was, you
would not love to hear talk Of saliva
ton" And now, my friends, If that
Young man said he wns fat, he told u
lie, he was lem as that hungry-looklng
sister over thar, that's always praying

tFron the Richmond Dbpatch Of the l2,h)
The James River and KanaWhR Canal
COmDAuy,

This company have now completed
their arrangements for the shipment OF
through freight, and several cargoes
have already been sent through under
the new system. They own a line of
boats on the canal, and In order to Sc
cure freight aud compete successfully
with the railroad, their agents are In
structed to make special contracts at
such rites as shall command trade. At
Lynchburg and Richmond the COM
pany have warehouses, In which freight
intended for shipment on the canal may
be stored free OF charge, and at each
terminus the company have also an
agent, who attends to the shipment and
transhipment Of freight from the boats
to the steamers or railroads, or vice
versa, without cost of one cent TO the
shipper, who, in addition, saves COM
missions and drayage on his goods.
The company also insure all general
merchandise against loss or damage
without an eXtrI charge. Some energy
is now being displayed In the manage
ment Of this important enterprise, and
there Is a fair prospect that the COM
pany will now do II fair and profitable
business.
From tho French company, repre-
sented by Messrs. Bellot des Miners,
nothing definite has yet been heard.
Their lust official communication was
In reply to 10 resolution of the Board Of
Directors of the James River and
Kanawha Canal Company, asking
whether they accepted the contract, and
when they would be prepared TO COM
plete 1t. The French company stated
that they did accept the contract, but
that they could not state the precise
time ut which they could complete 1t
until they learned the cost Of finishing
the canal upon the large plan. Three
engineers wers then appointed TO draw
up detailed estimates of cost, and
draughtsman was selected TO prepare
the necessary maps. These gentlemen
made their report about three weeks
ago. 1t was Immediately forwarded to
Europe, and reply from. the French
company is expected to arrive in the
course Of week or two.
1t is u gratifying proof Of the In
Creasing prosperity Of the enterprise to
remember that the One-hundred-dollar
shares of the company are now selling
ut fourteen dollars, whiletwo thousand
five hundred Of them were sold In the
fall OF 1865 ut six dollars per share.
The shares ought to be worth ut least
thirty or forty cents TO the dollar, and
we hope to see them steadily improved In
market value.
