From Demorest's Monthly for October.

A preference in fall toilettes is
manifested for jet upon woolen,
cashmere, serge and wOolen poplin,
with cuirasses of velvet, striped with
jet bands. These of course, are all
black, but there are very handsome
costumes of Russia gray worn over
black skirts, and there are complete
costumes of brown camel's hair,
twilled all wool bege, and WOODEN
serge, embroidered with wool, in sew
eral shades of the same COLOR
These last are not new, except in
design, but they are very handsome
and can never become common, be-
cause they require that the bonnet
and other portions of the toilette
should be in harmony with them,
aud these accessories, being in col
ors, cannot properly be worn with
other dresses.
Bradford opinion. [volume] (Bradford, Vt.) 1874-1881, 1874-10-03

THERE will be great revival OF
velvet this season for indoor dress
es, "at homes," "kettle-drums,''
small dinner parties, and the like ;
some will be cut plain tomreau, and
striped with jet, others demi-train,
with basques and open bodies, en-
riched with real or jetted lace. The
oriental jet necklaces composed of
many graduated strands, are repeat
ed in aprons for the front and back
of costumes, and are added to black
Gabrielle dresses, as well as to COM
plete costumes, with fine effect.

Correction of the Senate Journal Of 1872.
Mr. Blake presented the following:
Whereas 1t appears by reference to the
Journal of Proceedings of the Senate at its
session in 1872, page 700, that upon the
passage of bill entitled "An act to regu-
late the taxation of coal mining companies
in this State for State purposes" that every
Senator present voted for said bill; and,
whereas, this record is untrue, and is well
known to be so to several Senators now
occupying seats upon this floor, as well as
TO the present officers of this body who
occupied similar positions at the last SEES
sion, and to the President of the last Sen
ate. Now, therefore, in justice to those
Senators, viz: the Senator from the First
Legislative District from Baltimore city
(Mr. BLAKE), the late Senator from ALE
rany county (Mr. SPATEs) the present
Senator from Calvert county Mr.. VII.
IIAMs), and the late Senator from Cecll
county Mr. MmIER,) who voted against
the passage of said bill,
Re il 0ylered, That the foregoing state
mrut be recorded upon tho Journal OF this

Mr. BLAKE said as this was the only
mode by which himself and the other Sem
ators msreprest ntcd could be set right be-
fore the public, and he was unwilling that
the misrepresentation should be left uncor-
rected, he asked as simple act of justice
that this order be passed.
Mr.. FIELDS doubted the authority of this
body to correct the Journal of prior SEN
ate. Even if a mistake were made, it
could not be corrected here.
Mr. EARLE said it was a simple matter
of justice to the gentlemen misrepresented,
and az such the order should be passed.
Mr. BILLINGsLEY advocated the order as
an act of Justice. Mr.. STEINER said it was
not an order to correct the Journal of the
last session ofthe Senate, but that the order
presented he entered on the Journal of this
body and he should vote for it. The order
was adopted. FIDEIIo.

Mr. ED1roR-Wil you be kind enough
to allow the miners of the Midlothian
Branch of Unionsts small space in your
most valuable paper in which to express
our gratitude to Mr.. HENRY A. HUrsoN,
Superintendent of the Midlothian mines,
for the very noble and gen,lemanly man
ner in which he received delegation
from the miners who waited upon him on
Monday, 26th inst, for the purpose of ad-
jusiing what was supposed to be difficult
ty existing between ourselves, namely, tina t
of equalizing the little work now done at
the mines among the whole body 'of men.
The report had been circulated that the
present small contract was to have been
supplied by those men that live in the
houses owned by the Company. Circum-
stances also tended to prove the report as
true, through the fact that those men who
lived in the houses owned by the Compa-
ny were at work We are happy to in
form the public that Mr.. HUTsoN did not
intend to confine the work to them, but
left the matter entirely in the hands of the
whole body of men to divide the work as
they thought proper. For this liberty VIC
feel grateful to our worthy Superintendent.
Such liberality on his part cannot fail to
ennoble him in the estimation of the men
May he live long to rule well is the sincere
desire of GRATITUDE.
