The INCoaNIrA.--I remember one
night going to a masked ball given at
the theatre during the Carnival.
During the evening young and appa-
rehtiy elegant woman came toward
me- attlred. in domino and mask, and
putting her arm within mine, accosted
, me tr4us; "The signor has not found
ner whom his eyes seek" Now ] was
Seeking no one in particular, SO in
ferred that l was not speaking to any
one acquainted with me, and ! replied,
"The signora can jest at my disap-
pointment does she wish it less ?"
disappointment belongs to most men
who trust women; to all who trust
men," "The signora," I urged, sis
too young and lovely to have discover
ed that herself" II have not com
planned; the heart is silent on its own
sorrows, sigmor Capitano." was
only Lieutenant, but the idea did not
displease me. "Signora, if it were in
my power you should never have
reason to feel sad," answered. And
so this light badinage continued for
some little time. I besought her
to tell me who she was, or to un-
mask, but this she declined to do, and
in return told me so many little mat
ters about myself and my daily habits
that l could not imagine how she
could possibly have learned them, and
became thoroughly intrigue. AS she
was very obdurate, wished her adieu,
when she promised that if / would
stay until the conclusion of the ball
she would unmask. For want of some
thing else to do, and also, perhaps,
from curiosity, stayed, and about
three in the morning / posted myself
at the door to watch the people as
they left, and soon espied my incognita.
She walked up to me with most co.
quettish air, raised her mask, and dis
closed the not uncomely visage Of
my washerwoman. She was childish
ly diverted at her success in playing
me off-much more than was myself
The following evening ! received
note from another lady begging me to
go to the ball again; but as / was
aware that my washerwoman had a
dear friend, who was also clear
starcher, l felt sure that the two had
concerted another joke at my expense,
and judged it advisable to disregard
the invitation.-Cornhill Magazine for

WHEREAS, much painful anxiety and appre.
hension exists In the public mind, resulting
from the passage Of the "Aillitary Bil' by Con-
gress, and the General Order OF General Ord
IN assuming command Of the sMllitary Dis
trict or Mississippi and Arkansas,r. and
whereas, In some instances, the regular admin-
istration Of the State Government has been tin-
settled to such an extent as to cause some OF
the officers OF the State to suspend theflnctions
OF their offices and many citizens are hes.
itating, while others refuse TO pay their taxes
upon the assumed ground that the Tax Col.
iectors are not competent ohicers,s and there
iore are not authorized to receipt for the same;
and as other evils and Irregularities may arise
from the uncertainty that exists as to the du-
Ties and responsibilities Of officers and citizens
OF the State In their present situation-there-
lore, deem 1t proper TO make known that the
Act OF Congsess commonly called the "Military
Bllp' recognizes the civil existing Government
Of the State II is true II Is declared to be pro-
yisional only and in all respects subject to
the paramount authority Of the United States
AT any time to abolish, modify, control or
supercede the same. But until a change is
made in accordance with the provisions OF
this law, l hereby give NOTICE to the Civil
Officers Of the ftate that their relations and
responsibilities to the Constitution of the Uni
ted States, 10 the State Of Mississippi and to
the people, remain unchanged, and they will
be held to a strict accountability for the per
formance Of their duties, in carrying out the
provisions of the laws, for the maintenance of
the civil Government, and for the fun and am
pie pr0teftion Of all classes. OF inhabitants Of
the State. ..both white and black in all of their
rights Of person, property liberty and religion.
And further advise and admonish all good |
citizens and inhabitants to sustain the civil |
officers in maintaining the peace, order and Sc
curity Of society--to deal justly and indul- |
gently with each other, and in their political |
to devote themselves TO pursuits |
If industry, and to the production of those |
lecessaries of life for which they are now so |
dependent upon the markets Of other States, |
md to offer no resistance to any steps that may
,e taken In the reconstruction OF the State by
he Military authority of the United States,
xcept such as may be authorized by the
Jourts, under the Constitution of the United
tates. Military power may become intolera-
lie only when it is placed in the hands Of the
icious and the unjust, which, happily, is not
he case in Mississippi. The military BilP'
makes no provision for the support Of the civil
Government. Taxes must be collected by the
iyll officers to support it and to pay its debts.
nd whenever any changes are made either in
he civil officers or the duties required of them,
imely notice will doubtless be given and du-

THE FAsHIoNs.-A fashionable inno-
vation in ladies' dress, it is whispered,
will be the introduction of minute sill
yer bells. These, it is supposed, will
keep up with the motions of the body
merry Naturalization calculated
to utterly captivate our ears and drive
us into musical raptures. How rare
would be the schottish or the polka
danced with a score or so of little
bells keeping happy time to the steps
Of the lady and the beat of the music.
Coral, and especially the very pale
kind variety, is becoming very fash
ionable for trimmings. 1t has been
re-introduced by the far-famed man
dressmaker in Paris, who uses it Law
|ishly in the decoration of dresses. For
example, white silk dresses are trim
med with fringe of rough coral, black
silks are trimmed with coral buttons
the buttons being sewed around the
lrmholes, instead of fringe, and the
tunics of evening dresses are trimmed
with a coral fringe.
