The styles for children dresses are
more becoming than formerly and are
better adapted for the preservation of
health. High necks and long sleeves,
and the high Polish boot, are preferred
to low necks, short sleeves and thin
shoes.
White is the most fashionable for
little girls, and circulars of white ba-
rege or grenadine, or tunics of thin
white muslin, are now worn in place
of the white lambs wool or white al
pine or tufted cloth worn earlier in
the season.
There is now quite a variety of no
velties in foulards for robes. The
foulard Patti, with border of must
cal notes; the foclard Oriental, with
double palm-leaf upon rice colored,
or white ground work; and one, or
namented with wreaths of flowers, is
called the Imperial. Then there are
the foulard glaneuse, decorated with
ears of wheat knotted together, and
the foulard pastel, with small flowers
on pearl, or gray, or rose, or white
ground

The New Orleans Riot,

On the 9TH of August the President tele-
graphed to Gen. Sheridan for information IN
regard to the origin of the riot, and whether
any measures had been taken to punish the
guilty parties
General Sheridan, on the 9Th Of August, re-
plies at length, that at the meeting on the Z'en
ult, tie speech of the radical Dostle was lntem-
uerate in language and sentiment; that the ne
groes on the day of the meeting OF the twenty
nine members composing the convention, were
armed. eyerv one in ten, with pistols, and
others with clubs, and numbered from SIXTY to
one hundred and thirty in procession, ana IN
side the building to one hundred and htly.-
The first collision occurred whilst the negro
procession was crossing Canal street from Bur
gundy. some person firing q shot, whether 1iom
or at the procession is not known. AS 1t en-
tered the building disturbance took place Pc
tween negro and the police, who, up to that
time, had been held well in hand, and shot
was fired by one Of the parties, which drew from
the police an indiscriminate tire through inc
windows. and subsequent massacre OF negroes
by the rioters.
General S. says: "Ihc immediate cause OF
this terrible affair was the assembling OF the
convention, and the remote cause was the bitter
feeling growing out Of the police appointments
made by the Mayor from the desperate charac,.
tiers irfesting the city, The leading men OF
the convention, King, Cutler, Hahn and others,
he says, have been political agltators, and are
bad men, while the course Of Gov. Wells has
been vascillating during the trouble. Judge
Abel he also thinks dangerous man to the
peace and quiet Of the city. Gen. Sheridan
says no steps have been taken by the civil au-
thorties to arrest citizens or policemen who
have been engaged in the riot, and he is OF the
opinion that they cannot mete out ample JUS
tice to the guilty parties on both sides.
In his final letter, on the evening OF the 9th,
Gen, Sheridan reports rapid change TOR the
better throughout the city. On the TIN Secre1
the 9Th, on behalf of the President, and says
nothing more is needed pending investigation.

Tho Expected Release Of HI. Davis.

FORTRESS MONROE, August 26 The i'm
preston steadily gains ground here that Mr..
Davis will soon be released from his long i'm
Drisonment. This impression, however, is not
produced by any action that has, as yet, been
taken by the Government that could be con-
3+rued as preliminary to his release, but it is
merely the result Of a frequent expression Of
opinion to this effect by those naturally sup

cognizant Of the probability Of such an event

The Western papers arc publishing Eong
article entitled "a Eradication Of Daris' MI
itay Strategy" The writer's object as stated
by himself, is to controvert the opinion that
the disasters which befcll the Confederate army
Of the Tennessee about the time and after. the
capture of Atlanta by General Sherman, were
mainly, if not entirely, attributable to the OBJ
stinate prejudices Of Mr.. Davis against Gener-
al Joseph E. Johnston, to his removal OF that
officer from the command ofthe army, and to
his equally obstinate prejudices in favor of the
officer appointed to succeed him.
We notice that all of the papers which pub
lish the article, attribute it to General Gustavus

another general officer of the Confederate
Armies" wrote it. Justice to all parties re-

LATER FROM EUROPE.
BY THE ATLANTIC CABLE.

The advices from Europe by the cable are to
Saturday evening. The treaty Of peace be-
tween Prussia, Italy, Austria and Bavaria was
concluded on Saturday last, and was officially
signed the same day. The Emperor of Austria
las determined to grant new Constitution and
Ministry to Hungary upon the basis Of the Con-
stltution Of iS4C-the revocation of which was
the cause of the Hungarian revolution Of 1S4S.
The Empress Carlotta, it is reported. will not
return to Mexico, and it is said to be conceded
on all sides that the Empire of Mexico ap-
proaches its termination. If additional troops
are sent from France to Mexico, it will only be
in sufficient numbers to protect the interests Of
French subjects imperilled by the fall Of the
Empire, and to secure quiet evacuation of
the country. A civil war has broken out in
Japan. %
