body took another road, that park Of
artillery was also en- route for the same
place, that q regiment was also moving
on Spartanburg aud Union, and that
another regiment was to be scattered
promiscuously. Is this NIL Joe's doings?
What does it mean? What does Joseph
want?
LATER Men who are acquainted with
sounds affirm that they heard cannon
firing on Sunday night last.

The COMING BONNET. THE New York
San is authorized to announce, by u
lending fashion designer of that city,
who furnishes London with fashion
plates for a prominent and authoritative
fashion magazine, that the regular bon
net is to be enlarged as the season ad-
vances. A double pointed fall of silk
velvet, or whatever material composes
the bonnet, falls over tho heavy chate-
laine braids of hair. The gypsy form in
front, somewhat modified, is retained.
Pretty little head coverings are also to
be worn, half hat, half bonnet, the brim
clinging CLOSE to the head, the crown
low and fiat, and three feathers of differ
ent shades of the same color falling from
the back over the front and sides. This
exquisite novelty was brought out by
Madame Ferraro, of Paris, just before
the siege. 1t is called the Vespitro, and
was so popular with the fair Parisians,
it was said that when Eugene was de-
throned, Vespitro took her place. But
who the Vespitro Was, who gave the
name to the hat, is unknown. The little
wonder, duplicated in two shades of
beetle green silk, and trimmed with three
| shades OF plumes, makes a stunning lit
tie hat. The regular hat is worn larger,
and with low, fiat crown.
DREADFUL CATASTROPHE Yesterday
about half-past one o'clock, dreadful
accident occurred at the Etiwan Phos-
phate Works, on Town Creek, about
three miles from the city. The hues in
one boiler Of Il new set just put up by
James NJ. Eason & Brother, which had
been in uso but two days, collapsed,
sending the hot water in every direction,
and scalding to death Mr.. Geo Smokes,
who had beon sent up to the works in
the morning. Captain Horace Pratt and
Mr.. James M. Williams, who were stand
ing near Mr.. Smokes, were badly burnt,
though, it is thought, not fatally. a
couple of colored men were slightly in
jured. The cause of the accident is hid
den i'll mystery. MS there was plenty of
water in the boilers, which had been
working smoothly for an hour and half
before. The damage done to the works
will probably reach S4OO. - Charleston
