There is at present an unusual fea-

Sixteen vessels which have lately left

The North German Parliament has
unanimously requested the executive

A Com, cal Take OFF on the Fashion
Reports...Ihe Prevailing styles for
Eyes, Noses and Ears.
A New York fashion correspondent
of the Pittsburgh Gasette gets off the
following:
Eyes continue to be worn, one on
each side of the nose, and immediately
under the brOHS. There has been some
talk of substituting a single orb, of in
creased size and brilliancN, in the CEN
ire of the brow; but after all our
achievements in lightning speed, the
world moves slowly, and the idea of a
change in the number of eyes to be
worn has not been favorably received,
notwithstanding its many advantages !;
but the color is varied to suit the occa-
sion, and just now the prevailing tint
il green-a fine, sea green. This shade
can be best acquired in Baden Baden,
by continued contemplation of the de-
licious toilettes of the demi monde, but
may be Obtained in Paris, Saratoga, or
on Broadway. Black, blue and gray
are still worn in the home circle, and
are found very becoming in the nur-
sery, at the family tea.table and social
evening gatherings.
Noses maintain their position on the
centre of the face. The Greciau or
aquiIine is generally preferred, but the

article of the Grecian type is now fur

probable that in time all other varieties
may disappear.
Lips are midway between the nose
and point of the cnin, and are pale

tolerated, except in girls not vet come

Teeth will be somewhat larger, aud

Ears are worn on each side of the

Report OF the Department of AEricuI'
uure for october.

WASHINGTON, Nov. THE report
of the Department of Agriculture for
October, says the wheat crop of the
country will exceed any harvest hith-
erto gathered. The amount is placed
at 22O, ,OOO, 900 to 225, 600, 900 bushels. nli-
nois gives an increase of 7per cent;
Minnesota s; Michigan ID; Iowa 15;
Wisconsin I6; Ohio 100; Indiana s5;
West Virginia 81; Kentucky 3S; Penn
syIvania 81. The quality of the wheat
is greatly superior to that of last year.
1t is almost universally sound and dry,
but in many localities there may be
found from a third to half deficiency
in weight, lacking in plumpness or
slightly shriveled, and passing as No.
3, being less than 5S pounds to the
bushel. There is also greater ten
dency to cleanliness and care in pre-
pairing the grain for market.
Oats-The aggregate will exceed $50
million bushels, about three per cent.
above last year.
Rye-The estimates of all the States
excepting those on the Pacific, give 2l,-
600, 900 bushels, an increase of four per
cent.
Barley is deficient about half a million
bushels, or IOur per Uenl.
Beans and peas are more than an av-
erage crop.
Corn-The quality is uniformly good.
The value of the entire crop, after de-
ducting deficiencies in the Ohio Valley,
and allowing for an increase in almost
all other States, will be greater than
last year.
Sorghum has greatly declined, and
dependency is evident in the feelings
of many growers.
Buckweat is hardly equal to last
year. The potato crop is poor. To-
bacco less than last year. Sugar 20 per
cent. greater than small crop OF last
Cotton-abuut two and half million
bales of 500 pounds each.
Fattening cattle-a small deficiency
in Kentucky, Ohio, Indiana and llli-
nois. Farther west and northwest the
supply is generally as good as last year:
In those States that report reduced
supply, there is also reduction in the
condition. In all of the others the re-
ports upon the condition are quite
favorable.
Old wheat-a reduction as compared
with last year. The stock of old wheat
has not been reduced so low for many
years, if ever.

BUSINESS MATTERS.

The assessments place the total
wealth of New York at 81 500, 100000.
There is one thing that will never
get hurt from fall, and that is flour
it falls so slow.
"A Missouri farmer has raised two
turnips weighing together thirty
pounds, six ounces.
Washington market, in New York,
supplies over 1000, 900 OF people per day
with food, and furnishes $4,000 persons
Il livelihood.
The manufacturers in the vicinity
of New Haven are curtailing their ope-
rations, and it is probable that busi-
ness will be very dull the coming win
ter.
The coal trade of Pennsylvania in
creases largely each year. 1t is stated
that five hundred and fifty thousand
tons more of anthracite coal have been
sent to market this year than during
the corresponding period of last year.
The decline in Western Union Tel
egraph shares attracts general atten-
ton. The establishment of the Allan
tic ana racine COMPANY mas cauSeo II
telegraph war, aud rates are being re-.
duced, which benefits the public and
not stock holders. The falling off in
Western Union is due to reports that
the dividend will be passed.
One of the strongest arguments in
favor of doing business on cash prin-
ciple Is the fact that at present the
branches of trade which are the dullest
are those in which the longest credit is
given. Houses that do nearly cash
business. it is stated, at the North, have
the best trade, and the least inconveni-
ence in meeting their obligations.
The Parkersburg Times contains a
somewhat novel proposition. 1t is
from young merchant, who proposes
that one-half of the merchants of that
place sell out to the other, at market
rates, obligating themselves to invest
the proceeds in a manufacturing estab-
lishment. He thinks by this means the
remaining mercantile moiety will be
enabled to live, that the moiety of SELL
ing out will be doing n good thing, and
that finally by the manufacturing es-
tablishment, enough additional custom
will be introduced to justify the outgo-
ing tradesmeu to buy in again If they
want 10.

Mr.. WEsToN's WALK.-The Provi-
dence Journal has an account OF Mr..
Weston's progress after leaving that
city. After leaving Washington, r. l.,
at a quarter past 1 O'Clock Saturday
morning, he found the roads in very
bad condition for walking, being very
sandy and rough. He also began to
feel the effects of the Pawtucket acci-
dent, but was in excellent spirits. Not
withstandlng the roughness OF the
roads, he fairly outwalked the two
horses which drew his carriage, and
they had to be started into trot every
few minutes. Nearly every house
which was passed on the road that
night was Illuminated, and the open
windows were filled with heads, all
eager to see "the man what's goin' to
walk to Chicago" Large crowds greet
ed him at every town, and numbers
followed him for considerable distances
on his route. The account says:
CATER the moon went down the
night was very dark, and the road was
losG twice before reaching Sterling Hill.
This involved some vexatious delays
in inquiring the right way, but very
little time was lost. The village of
Oneco was reached at 5.55 q. m., but no
stop was made, and the next point,
Sterling Hill, came in view at 6.45.
Here Mr.. Weston stopped to get some
refreshments, and consultation was
held, in which it was decided to give
up the idea of reaching Andover at one
O'Clock. This decision was reached on
account of 'Ned's' condition, Mr.. Grin
dell having examined him and pro.
nounced him unfit to attempt to make
the remaining thirty.six miles in six
hours. Mr.. Weston was still anxious
to go on, but acquiesced in the decis-
ion of his trainer, and immediately re-
tired to his room to enjoy the much
needed repose. He left Sterling Hill
at 80 p. IN. to pursue his Journey"

A New Orleans paper notices the
general dissatisfaction of the house
keepers of that city with their present
way orliving. Their principle grievance,
real or imagined, is the quality ofservice.
The freed people are said to be restless
and fond of change Many of them are
lazy and inefficient, while even the best
servants do not, as rule, stay contented-
ly in the same families for long term.
In fact, the same complaints are made
there against the freedmen which we hear
so frequently in the city about "help," J"
both white and black. Such complaints
will always be heard in an underpopula-
ted country, where the laborer has many
opportunities to gain living,
A remedy has been suggested. 1t is
for u number of families to furnish u
joint kitchen, and put it in charge of a
cook and steward, both the best that can
be obtained, and both well paid. The
former would have charge of the lower
servants; the latter Of the purchases and
of the distribution of the prepared food
among the houses of the stockholders.
The advantages claimed for such an
arrangement are; relief from the worry
of looking after servants and marketing;
better cooking apparatus and service
than a single family of moderate means
could command; reduced cost offood, since
it could be bought at wholesale, and at
the same time, if the steward were COM
petent, improved quality; and, finally,
a grateful increase in the leisure time of
the ladies of the family.
1t may be said that meals can be pro-
cured as we'll from the restaurants, but
the New Orleans paper justly replies
that there is this difference: The restau-
rants are conducted for the profit of their
proprletors, while in the case of the pro-
posed cooperative kitchen the patrons
are themselves the proprietors.

Daniel Webster was right when he re-
marked of the press "Small is the sum re-
quired to patronize a newspaper; amply
rewarded is its patron, care not how
humble and ,unpretending the gazette he
takes. 1t is next to impossible to fill
printed sheet, without putting into it
something worth the subscription price"

SCHOOL WHIPPING IN PRNNsYLvA-
MIA judge in Allegheny, Pa, in a
school-teacher-w whipping boy case
brought before him, charged the jury
that sit was the duty of the boy to sub
init to the directions of the teacher, so
far as he had capacity to understand
them; and if a spirit characterization
was manifested, the teacher had right
to int1ict punishment. There was a
sentiment gaining ground in the COM
munity that all corporal punishment
in schools was illegal, and that moral
suasion ouly should be used. To this
doctrine the court could not subscribe,
for the reason that, if carried ont, our
schools would soon become disorgan-
lied, and their usefulness impaired" ;"
His directions to the jury in this case
were summed up as follows: "a
teacher, in intlicting corporal punish
ment upon a pupil, must exercise rea-
sonable judgment and discretion, and
must in no case go beyond the limit of
moderate castigation, either in degree
or mode, and within that Limitation
must be governed as to the manner and
severity of the punishment by the ma
ture of the offense and size and appa-
rent powers of endurance OF the pupil" "
The Jury, after a short deliberation,
found IL verdict of "not guilty" and di-
vided the costs between the prosecutor
and the defendant.
