ON CARONDELET STREET,

Gold was quoted at q rate one-quarter
to one-half in advance of New York,
which finally stilled at 112, reaching this
point through 1115 according to the
''white slips, while sterling was reported
as steady. Domestic exchange is still
firm and remains without vibration. For
eign exchange is lower. Sight on New
York rules at { premium and sale OF
$50, 900 at 3-16 is spoken out loud as a
mark of the business done in this direc-
ton
A review of the week simply shows
that all of its sensation is crowded toward
the end of it. The sales of cotton, always
a measure of our commercial feeling and
barometer of our spirit in such deal
ings, fell yesterday to fifty bales where
the day before over 1000 had been sold
But this may be owing to the habit of
settling up at the end of the week which
has ruled in the street for years, and as a
settlement and balancing usually are evil
dence of many things unknown before, it
also produces caution among buyers who
have no disposition to risk until the be-
ginning of the week.
To show the price at which Levee stock
was sold yesterday, the following table is
appended

piece of subservience to the mob. AS the
mob consisted of Democrats, and as the
order of Mayor Hall was that of a Demo
crat, and as it was defended by the Demo-
cratic press, it is natural that the De-
mocracy should be held measurably re-
sponsible for the outrage. The Republi-
can press did not make it party issue,
however, but simply contented itself with
denouncing the mob and its illiberal de-
mand upon the authorities. 1t could do
nothing else and still be Republican.
Now the Democrats charge that we are at
tempting to make political capital out of
the affair Nothing of the sort. We
are perfectly willing to let the matter
take care of itself If its effect is to con-
vince the people who the truest custo-
dams Of civil and religious liberty are,
that must be because the facts declare
such result, and not because we first
set up such superiority. In this regard
the impartial judgment of mankind will

pies, which not only tolerate freedom of
political opinion in the South, but free
dom of religious opinion in the North.
We neither condemn nor modest men for
their color in one section of the country,
nor do we interfere with their religious
movements in another. The largest lib
erty to all consistent with absolute i'm
munity from abuse to each individual, is
the landmark of the Republican party;
and the strict adherence to this principle
by the people of every community will
end in making every American Repub-
lican partisan. 1t is sweet to dwell to-
gether in unity.

There were no sales made yesterday at.
figures different from the above, the stock
buoyant at the first news on the street
sinking to a steady place in the current
and then going slowly, but perceptibly
down.
For long time there has been no move
ment of any kind in the street. Every
thing has been reported ''dull" To all
inquiries the reply has been made 'noth-
ing doing" To all questions as to the
amount Of business the answer has been
given dry" The late ascent of Levee
stock is all the more acceptable, as it
tends to relieve the oppression that
seemed to have fallen over monetary
affairs. We hear Of an agreement made
between the old Louisiana Levee Com
pany, H. S. McComb and W. T. Scott,
that the two gentlemen are to receive
about thirty thousand shares; of the pay
ment by the same two parties of one hun
dred and twenty thousand dollars; of the
contract being signed, sealed and deliver
ed, by which the big men of our Louisiana
railroads are to build all the levees under
this company, they having capital con-
sisting of six millions. Thus the incor
porators are bought out" The old
board has resigned, and things under new
auspices will commence right away.
There was an indistinct whisper about
Pneumatic stock having been sold as high
as four and half. One party passed
his word" that he sold thirty shares at five
dollars, which only shows better feeling
among all these neutrality-suspicious. to
have prevailed of late, as the Pneumatic

the street without chignon. So much
for the hair. Now for the dress, or rather
the ''overdress" A fair and tickle queen
OF France, wishing on one occasion to en-
gage in some sport to which her cum
brous robes were hindrance, carelessly
tucked up her skirt, displaying thus her
embroidered petticoat Immediately the
whole train of court ladies raised their
skirts in imitation, and thus the fashion
OF ''overskirts," as they are now called,
came into existence. They are fussy, in
elegant and ungraceful. They conceal
and distort the figure. They make OF a
woman bundle of dry goods. Yet they
are de rig,ter and no woman from the
wealthy matron driving in her carriage
to the servant girl prepared for church or
for conquest, feels dressed with
out one. Here now is chance
for that independence which We
advocate. Let the lank, hipless woman
wear an overskirt if she wishes 50
to do. Something is better than moth
ing; and looped up masses of a pretty ma
terial have, in their proper place, pleas
ing effect. But let not the plump, well
formed woman be compelled to muffie
her dainty limbs in superauous dry
goods to keep her bony sister in counte-
nance. Let soft folds of delicate drapery
wave around her supple form, the chef
doeuUre of the Creator. Let her not be
incommoded with pufs and ruffles and
hounces, f1ounces and ruffies and putfs,
crinoline, bustles, or whatever the device
may be, whereby fashion would dethrone
beauty. But, robed in modest simplicity,
IN materials rich as her purse can afford,
grave or gay, as her mood inclines; let
her dress be an outgrowth and express
sion of herself, becoming to her age,
complexion, figure, and suited to the
occasion When these things are gen.
orally studied instead of 1.-THE fashion,
we shall see not only more variety but
more beauty of costume.

EMILIO CASTELAR,.

The dispatches sent here from New
York on the sixteenth instant relative to
the warm debate in the Cortes at Madrid
the preceding day, were not so full as
those received by the New York papers.
That debate was so hot that it caused a
dissolution of the Spanish Cabinet, and
nothing but a republican ministry is
likely to satisfy the Cortes or the people.
The Madrid dispatches of the fifteenth, as
given in the New York papers, among
other things, say
NJ. CASTELAR,. the leader of the republican
party, attacked the ministry vehemently.
