The approach Of Winter has not
made so much difference in the size
and shape cfbonnets as was expected.
The small Lamballe aud Pamela
shapes introduced last Sunmer took
su1duh held. upon the affections of
their fair wcarers, and undaunted by
the prospect Of q thermometer several
degrees below zero in December and
january, they have asserted their
willinsnoss TO fight il out on the same
line all Winter as well as all Summer.
Praiseworthy exortions have been
made by the milliners to produce
something like a bonpet, but we must
confess that the attempts werc'rather
abortive. Possibly this was because,
instead of giving us something new,
they simply altered, and patched out
old IDEAS, making the. Empire, which
before had certain style, positively
hideous, and adding 10 the Fanchon
scoop or extended point behind,
which rendered it quite unweRrable.
Placed beside the latter styles, the
pretty Lamballe, the coquettish CHG
non, and The unique Catalane, these
altered and enlarged, but not improved
shapes, looked worse than ever; TO
use the forcible expression of a dis
satisfied country lady, they were
neither one thing nor the other, and,
of course, were thrown over, set aside
for one of the younger and prettier
candidates.
The Chignon and the Catalene are
the decided novelties in small bonnets

ed back and front in the same, way,
that is, with bandeau and pendants;
the bandeau at the back forming a
sort Of comb for the hair, to which
chains are very often attached. "a.
The latest Parsian models OF the
Chienon have, instead of the bandeau
at the back, narrow stiff curtain, set
up, arching the waterfall, and faced
with a BRIGHT color. The strings of
these bonnets are usually tied under
the hair hehinde and lace scarfs

The original hearings in thirty-one cases
were before Alderman Beitler, at the Central
Station; and nearly every one OF these cases
was worked up by Chief Detective Franklin
and his assistants. Surely no better proof of
the efficiency of our Detective Corps of
Police could be desired. 1t should further
more be remembered that many of these cases
required the most persistent and delicate
manoeuvripg before they could be brought to
successful issue. The cases of George s.
Roberts and John Mason afford a striking
Illustration of this fact. Some weeks since
we gave sketch Of these two notorious bur-
glars, and OF the ingenious machinery,
the like of which was never be-
fore seen in this country, by means Of which
they were enabled to carry on their nefarious
calling. After months of careful and unin-
terrupted tracking, they were at last appre-
hended, and DAY or two ago their trial COM
menced, the indictments against them being
taken up, one by one. When placed in the
dock, they exhibited that brazen- faced imDu-
dence for which the English ''ticket-of-leave
man" is notorious throughout the world.
They were without counsel, and Mason con.
Quoted his own cross-eXaminations with a
GOODNESS that was certainly refreshing But his
shrewdness did not go far with the jury, who
were abundantly satisfied of the guilt of the
parties, and rendered their verdict accordingly.
Tomorrow morning their trial on another
indictment will be commenced, when scene
very edifying to the lovers of law and order
will probably be enacted. Not the less inte-
resting part of it will be the exhibition by the
detectives of the engines OF burglary which
were found in the possession of the prisoners
at the time OF their capture. Before detec-
tives and judges are done with them. thew
will be convinced that fortune served them
an ill turn when she led them all the wav
from Van Dieman's Land to the United
States.

THE detection and apprehension Of criminals
is task the difficulty of which is equalled
only by the delicacy which is necessary in
administering such punishment as will best
tend to secure the ends In view-prevention
OF future offenses and reformation of past
offenders. In both of these respects we
think the city of Philadelphia can lay claim
to great good fortune. 1t would be entirely
superhuous for us to go into any speciaca-
tion of the qualifications of the judges of
our principal criminal court. During the
political contest which has just closed, their
merits as lawyers and as citizens were fully
discussed, and the result Of the election
showed the estimation in which they were
held by large majority of the law-abidng
people of the city.
But perhaps the best evidence that can be
brought forward to show their zeal in the
protection of the lives and property OF those
to whom they are indebted for their high
judicial positions, is afforded by glance at
the results of one months work in the Quar-
ter Sessions. During the August term
seventy-nine convictions took place in this
court. One of the prisoners was convicted
on two separate indictments; to three new
trial was granted and in three cases the
sentence was deferred. The seventy-two
cases in which sentence was pronounced are
classified according to the following table, in
which the terms of imprisonment are re-
duced to the uniform standard of months:- -

she did have proved to be worthless when
they came to be tried. She had a short
handed crew, many of whom were "green-
horns," the company having refused to pay
the prices demanded by competent hands.
This is bad recital of facts for the steam
ship company, and makes them responsible,
to great extent, for the lives of the nearly
three hundred passengers who were lost. A
rigid investigation into all the circumstances
of this appalling calamity should be made,
and If the facts prove to be as reported, no
punishment hardly can be too severe for those
who, for the sake OF gain, so recklessly trife

Facts in Regard TO the UnseawOrthiness
of the Lost Steamship ''Evening Star"
AS all the facts respecting the recent loss OF
the steamship Erening Star are made public,
they seem to reflect with great severity upon
the company by whom she was owned and
run. She appears to have borne the character
of very strongly built and trustworthy boat,
so that she was quite favorlte with travellers
between New York and New Orleans; but
instead of deserving this reputation, she was
really weak boat, had been badly damaged
on previous occasions, and only some four
months ago "broke her back" by running
unon a rect. AS soon as she encountered
this severe storm she began to behave badly,
working and straining to such degree as
finally to break the connecting pipes Of the
enOine and disable it. She was rigged with
only single steering apparatus, which got
out of order in the height of the storm, and
left her at the mercy of the sea. She had
life-preservers for her cabin passengers, but
