What on earth induces ladies to adopt
such disgusting distortions in their
style of dress, we can not imagine.
Certain it is that the pannier and hustle
defomities are not encouraged by any
approval of sensible gentlemen. Wo-
men dress to lie admired by men, but
we doubt whether any man outside of
a lunatic asylum ever uttered a SYLLABLE
of admiration of these vulgar protu-
berances. The very appearance of these
insane distortions awakens sense of
shame and disgust in all practical
minds. But it is said women are more
pious than men. Are these paniera as
displayed in our churches the proof of
it? If women will persist in wearing
such things, common decency and mod
esty suggest that some other location on
the person be substituted for the one
now customary.

Explosive Cigars.

The sale of explosive cigars has, says the
Figaro, begun again in the streets of Paris
in spite of all the precautions taken by the
police to prevent these dangerous articles
from being sold to the public. The cigars
in question appear genuine to the purchas-
er, but contain minute cracker, which
when the cigar has been consumed to a
certain point, explodes, the cigar itself fly
ing to some distance from the mouth of the
smoker. Not only are these cigars capable
of severely wounding those who smoke
them, but they often lead to inconvenient
and deplorable results Not long ago a
gentleman happening to have some in his
pocket, and believing them to be ordinary
cigars, offered one to his uncle, whose prop
erty he expected to inherit, and who wore
a set Of artificial teeth. His horror may be
imagined when he saw what appeared to
be the entire jaw of his respected relative
briskly expelled from his mouth and fas-
ten on the features of a high official person,
who was heard to shrek out Indignantly,
"Monsieur, you have bitten me-"

Silver Ledge Discovered.

A wonderful discovery was made recent
ly six miles west of Carbon of an enor-
nous silver ledge or system of ledges, SO
locked and woven together as to be prac-
tically one ledge. 1t measures SO feet in
width, and can be clearly traced over five
miles, carrying ore the entire way, and as
sayes $175 to $1,000 per ton sure. A large
number Of men are already at work on the
Marshall tunnel, near Georgetown. A vein
of solid mineral was struck last week 80
inches wide. Great activity exists every
where in the mines, and reports come from
all quarters of larger yields than ever.

A Conrt Incident.

1t would seem from the following which
we copy from the Philadelphia Age of the
25th ult., that Quakers do not meet with
much favor at the hands Of Judge Allison.
"When the Court was opened, the jurors
were sitting on the platform allotted them
which is quite near the Judges bench and
among the foremost was member of the
Society of Friends, who wore his broad
brim hat as assiduously as if he had been
out in the open air under the hottest sun.
Judge Allison said he thought all citizens
should be equal before the law, and one
should not be privileged to wear his hat in
a Court of justice where others were not SO
entitled, and therefore he would have to
request the gentleman to remove his hat
The juror held private conversation with
His Honor, in which it was supposed that
he explained that the wearing of the hat
was intended as no disrespect to the Court
but as an obse. lance of the rules of his
religious belief, and he could not with a
clear conscience voluntarily comply with
the request. After he resumed his seat,
His Honor removed all difficulty by direct
ing the crier of the Court to remove the
gentleman's hat, which order was promptly
executed without resistance ON the part of
the owner of the offending cbapeau. Sub
sequently His Honor excused him from
further attendance.

american Cars In lIermanr.

1t is gratifying to every American citizen
to know that many articles of American
make have foreign reputation Even our
cars have such name in Germany, that
Emperor William has sent to this country
an order for two thousand railroad cars and
fifty locomotives, to be made after our
most approved American pattern. Rail
roads are in progress within the Empire
which will soon need this new stock; and it
is no small compliment to our mechanical
skill, and especially as displayed in rail-
road equipment, that American patterns
should be. preferred to any other. The
whole order was first sent, through the
Consul General of the German Government
at New York, to Pittsburg, Penn, and
the time of filing the order limited to three
months. With this part of the requisition
it was found impossible to comply. The
order was then offered to large establish
ments elsewhere in the United States, with
the same conditions as to time; but when
it was found that none of them could fill It,
the order was again sent to Pittsburg with
year allowed to make up the stock. This
might, perhaps, have been attempted at
first but in the interval between the two
orders, so many large and pressing de-
mands for work had come from parties in
this country that the German order could
not be attempted, even with the extended
time. 1t has since been divided between
the different Car and Locomotive Works
in various parts of the country.

to '3G he was member of the State Legis-
lature. He was delegate to the State

same year he took his seat, having been
elected by the Wings, in the United States
House of Representatives, where he remain
cd till 1S47. He has been in the United

personal and political friend of Henry
