HARD ON THE 1ADIEs.-Some old fogy Gan old dilapidated bachelor, of course) gets off the following at the expense of the ladies:
 Taken as a class, women can con- trive more outlandish and ugly fash ions than any one would think possi- ble without the gift of inspiration. Take, for instance, the waterfall First it represented bladder, of Scotch snuff; next it hung down q woman's back like canvas-covered ham after ward it contracted, and counterteited a turnip on the back of the head ; now it sticks straight out behind, and looks like wire muzzle on greyhound. Nestling in the midst of this long stretch of hair reposes little batter- cake of a bonnet like jockey saddle on long backed race horse."

WHERE TO GET THE BEST WIFE.-A man and wife were sitting at breakfast the other day--the husband trying to read the paper while the wife was lec- turing him on his dissipated hours. He suddenly looked up from his paper and said:
 "Herc's perfectly correct sentiment. A writer in this paper says the best capital to begin with is a capital wife v
 "That's very true, dear," replied the wife, smiling that her remark would elicit a compliment, ''but where can you always get them?'
 "In the deat and dumb asylum, of course"
 As sympathetic novelists say, we will not further invade this scene of quiet domcsticity."

Sheridan's Juror Order Revoked.

The following order was issued on the 9th inst.
 Special Orders No. 203.
 SECTION }. The true and proper use of Military power, besides defending the national honor against foreign na- tions, is to uphold the laws aud civil governments, and to secure to every person residing among us the enjoy ment of liberty and property. It is accordingly made by act of congress the duty of the commander of this dis trict to protect all persons in their rights, 10 suppress disorder and vio- lencc, and to punish or cause to be punished all disturbers of the public peace and criminals. The command ing general has been officially informed that the administration of justice, and especially of criminal justice in the courts, is clogged, if not only frustra- ted. by the enforcement of paragraph No. , of the military order, numbered special order No. l25, current series from these headquarters, issued on the 24th of August, A. D. 1867, in relation to the qualification of persons to be placed on the jury lists of the State of Louisiana, so determine who shall and who shall not be jurors, appertaining to the legislative power, and until the law in existence ruling the subject, shall be amended or changed by that department of the civil government, which the constitution of all the States under our republican system vest with that power, it is deemed best to carry out the will of the people, as expressed in the last legislative act upon the sub feet. The qualifications of a juror un- der the law is proper subject for the decision of the courts. The command ing general, in the discharge of the trust reposed in him, will maintain the just power of the judiciary, and is un- willing to permit the civil authorities and the laws to be embarrassed by military Interference; and, as it is an established fact that the administra- ton of justice in the ordinary tribunals is greatly embarrassed by the opera tions of paragraph No. }, special order No. l25, current series from these headquarters, it is ordered that said part which relates to the qualifications of persons to be placed on the jury list of the State of Louisiana, be and the same is hereby revoked, and that the trial by jury be henceforth regulated and controlled by the constitution and civil laws, without regard to any mili- tary order heretofore issued from these headquarters.
 By command of Maj. Gen. Hancock.

The bill to repeal the tax of two and half cents per pound on raw cot ton, which passed the House on We'd nesday, the 4th inst, provides that all cotton grown in the Southern States shall be exempt from internal revenue tax after the year 1867. A substitute to exempt the present years crop from tax was lost by large majority.

Ba~ A Peruvian letter gives an ac- count of affairs in that region, and among other things describes the meth- cd of horseback riding in vogue among the Peruvian women. He says the ''women do all the work, and the men are good-for-nothing set of gamblers and thieves" The women ride on the hind-quarters of their horses, without a saddle, cross-legged, with the load on the horse in front. They mount the animal by taking hold of his tail, mak- ing a loop by doubling it up, and clasp ing with one hand the upper and lower parts of the tail, then putting one foot on the joint of the horses leg, they as- cend as if going up stairs. They usually stand erect on the horse before sitting down. The horses never kick or stir whilst this curious process is going on.

WHY MIR. DAVIS SHOULD NOT BE TRIED BY UNDERwooD.-A Washing ton correspondent writes:
 It is highly important, as lawyers think, for the interests of Mir. Davis, and also in reference to the settlement of the constitutional law of treason. that Chief Justice Chase should be as- sociated with Judge Underwood in this trial. It is eqnally important to the Government, and to Federal legislation for the future, that the decision, what ever it be, have the sanction of the Su- preme Court of the United States. In case of disagreement between the two Judges upon some point of law that may arise, the matter in question can be sent to the United States Supreme Court, but not otherwise. From the sole judgment of Judge Underwood there could be no appeal. His decision, in so important case, would have no weight with the Court, nor with Con- gress, or the American public.

The way to Resume Specie
Payment.

The New York Economist reasons l
this way on the subject of resuming
specie payment: The Treasury is sub
iect to demand calls in the shape Of
Greenbacks and gold certificates of de-
post, amounting in round numbers to
$500, OO0, 600, while its stock Of coin was
on February LIST SOS, OOO, 600, and is now
probably slIO, OO0,O 900. Its reserve is
therefore equal to 273 per cent. of its
demand liabilities. Now, why should
not this reserve be q sufficient basis of
redemptioni When we speak of re-
demption we mean, of course, not re-
demption with a view to the destruction
of the notes, but of their re issue, as a
permanent currency. According to the
official returns Of the Congressional Re-
ports on Finance, the circulation and
deposits of the banks Of the United
States for the four years next preceding
the war averaged $50, ZOO 900. 1t was
thus found practicable to carry on the
banking of the country with a portion
of coin to demand liabilities of lS2 per
cent. The National Bank Act requires
the banks organized under that system
to keep q reserve of Is per cent. or Is
per cent. according to their being loca-
ted at the 6nsncial centers or not. 1t
is thus apparent that the reserve of
= LA l. A. T--,r---- = =. q ~,,aaA
larger ratio to demand liabilities than
is considered necessary in banking
operations. In reality, however, the
Treasury requires a less reserve than
the banks, for the banks, being distribu-
ted all over the country, are within easy
reach of the holders of their credits,
and are much more liable to a run for
redemption than in the Treasury, which
while Its notes are universally distribu-
ted, has only one point of redemption
the sub-Treasury at New York. Be-
sides, the exhaustion of the coin IN the
Treasury, by a run, is a practical impos-
sibility. Let our correspondent esti-
mate what amount of notes could be
redeemed here per day, and then say
how long the run would have to be kept
up before the reserve could be exhaus-
ted, and he will see that q run upon
the Treasury would speedily cure itself.
So long as the Treasury continued to
give gold for its notes, greenbscks
would be at par, and the fact of their
continuing at par would, within q day
or two, stop the run. No practical
banker would for a moment dream of
the feasibility of such an enormous re-
serve being drained by a run for re-
demption. The misfortune is that the
Secretary of the Treasury appears
wholly unconscious of the great strength
of his resources and his timidity, in not
attempting what is easily within his
power, creates unnecessary apprehen-
sions, and needlessly damages the pub
lie credit.
