AS TO Low DRESSES. Most fashions owe
their origin to an attempt to give prcmi-
nence to the strong point or hide the weak
point of a king or queen. Thus powder
came ilt0 vogue to conceal queens gray
hair, and large perukes because king was
bald. We learn, however, from Belgian
paper, that the custom of the ladies exhib-
itihg their busts in all the beauty of nature
has a far more romantic origin. In a bat
tie in which the French were engaged,
(all dates we may mention are in reserve)
their ranks were broken, and they were
routed. When they retreated, their women
barred their breasts and entreated them to
pierce them rather than to permit them TO
fall into the hands of the enemy. This was
too much for the gallant Gauls. Nerved
with fresh courage they turned, renewed
the contest, and were victorious. From
that day French women have on festal oc-
casions always been accustomed to wear
their dresses low. In fact, when you see
one who appears to have forgotten the up
per part of her dress, it is no proof of indeli-
cacy, but simply an indication of the pow
er of national sentiment. This satisfactO-
riiy explains what many ignorant people
have taken for improperly. We live and
learn.-Frona The Paper.

EDITORS CHRONICLE: The weather this
morning is as balmy Is spring. Business
generally is dull
Both branches of the Legislature had q
quorum present this morning. A very
large number of bills and resolutions were
introduced. We will only instance few
of them: Mr.. James, of Hamilton, came
down with Dutch coat on, with flaps ap-
proximating to the size of barn doors COW
ering the pockets each of these pockets
were "chuck fulln of bills. There were so
many of them that our brain got in q
whirl, and we only remember one. That
was, to furnish both Confederate and Fed
eral officers and soldiers who had lost a
limb during the late war an artificial one
at the expense of the State, which was re-
ferred to the Committee on MilitaryAffairs
Mr.. Owen offered bill to abolish the
ChanceryC Court atMadisonville, and change
it to Athens. 1t passed first reading.
Mr.. Ray offered bill, which passed first
reading, not to allow any person, a resi-
dent of this State, to sell lottery tickets or
regard to lotteries, nor allow any posters
displayed notifying the public Of the exist
ence OF lotteries in other States.
Mr.. McBath, of Knox and Sewer, intro
duced resolution granting one hundred
stand Of arms to the cadets at Knoxville.
Undefa suspension Of the rules, the reso-
luton was taken up. Messrs. Steele, Of
MARSHALL, and Russell, Of Rutherford and
Bedford, opposed the resolution, and
Messr- Fleming, of Knox, James, of
Hamilton, and McBatb, of Knox and
Sewer, made brief speeches in its favor.
The resolution passed the House, and is
now pending in the Senate, with a reason
able hepe of success.
There was not one more than q quorum
in the House to-day.

Rones-Edueati0n.

EDITORS CHRONICLE: / see it stated in
your paper of Sunday that J. w. Gaut,
Esq, shipped 1900 pounds of bones to
Lynchburg on Friday. He pays for these 40
cents per hundred pounds, or $500 ton.
These bones will probably be returned to
us in the spring in the form of bone meal,
or dust, or ground bones, at the rate of
from fifty to sixty dollars per ton; or per-
haps, hey will come back for sale in the
form of superphosphatee at the rate, NOM
inally, of $40, but actually at the rate of
500, or more per ton, when the impurities
are taken into account. Our farmers and
gardeners will purchase.at these prices,
probably 90 tons next season. Why snail
[ call this folly? Il is worse; it is stupid
ity. Mr. Gaut is probably doing what any
one else would do, but he is certainly help
ing to impoverish the community. He
sends off $50 worth Of fertilizing material,
which is badly needed on our poor fields,
for which he pays So, and our farmers pay
to Others from $50 to 500, or even more to
get back the same quantity of fertilizing
matter. For this reason I do protest
against the folly of this traffic. Last year,
if l mistake not, there were so tons of
bones sent away from Knoxville, probably
mere. If our people were ignorant then
on this subject, they will no longer re-
main so. Better that these bones were suf-
ferea to disintegrate and rot on our hill
sides, than to be sent out of the State, and
especially at such price. Better that the
farmers should put them, unbroken, about
the roots of their grape vines and fruit
trees, than virtually give them away to the
State of Virginia.
But, II our farmers were educated, or
read agricultural papers, they would never
be guilty of such consummate folly. Alas,
the great body Of them do not read, and
hence they are continually, all through
life, imposed upon by those who are more
wise and more wicked. When, oh, when
will they learn take to and read papers de-
voted to farming?
Now, there are two modes besides grind
ing or crushing) of making bones at once
available for the food of grain and plants.
One 10 TO put them in barrel or hogshead,
putting layer of fresh wood ashes on each
layer of bones, covering the top we'll with
ashes, then keeping the whole moist with
water fer few q months. Probably O. little
sulphuric acid, we'll diluted with warm
water, would hasten decay. In q few
months most of the bones will be rotted or
decayed.
The other mode is the use of sulphnric
acid diluted with two or three times its
quantity of warm water, and poured over
the bones on floor or in q trough or burn
ed. This process is more rapid, and also
more expensive than the first mode. The
writer has tried the first plan with success.
/ beg to state that no make complaint
of Mr.. Gaut; but again say that l pro-
test against our State being impoverished
by this traffic. FARaER

The argument turned upon Ambler's
amendment, which was, in effect, that the
appointment of commissioners should not
commit Congress to annexation. The ar
guinent turned upon the point that the
amendment was unnecessary, and that it
would cause delay by sending it back to
the Senate, and also give additional viru-
lenee to the bad blood existing there. The
debate was quite bitter, Butler and Bing
ham both opposing the amendment. Some
sharp passages occurred between Republi-
can members, the most angry of which were
between Garfield and Butler. The vote
shows those opposed to annexation, though
some who voted against the amendment
and for the resolution, did so under the
impression that it would do no harm. The
