Trousers for Ladies.

Long white trousers fer ladies are very
much worn on the Continent. These
trousers should be quite plain for wearing
in the daytime and in the street; but those
for evening wear should be made of fine
cambric, or muslin ornamented with EN-
broidery, lace Insertion, or heavy rich lace
frills or flounces, according to the taste
aud means of the lady herself. What
could look prettier, or more modest, than
to see pretty. small trousefed foot in silk
stockings and neat sandal shoe, appear
ing under the skirt of muslin dress. the
ankles bur ed, as it were, in several rows of
the lace frills or tiounces of fine eambric or
muslin trousers? Surely, also, when a
young lady Of eighteen or nineteen is
dancing, it is more modest, as it is Ger
tainly very becoming, to see the limb hid
den in lace-frilled trousers of cambric than
in the present fashion. As | said, this
| mode is very much seen on the Continent,
among French, Spaniards, and especial
Russians. When st Barcelona, a few yea
ago, | remarked that every lady wore
| trousers, some plain, some richly trimmed
with lace frills or fiounces. Two or four
inches of the trousers were visible setting
off the small Spanish foot to perfection.
knew pretty French lady who used to
wear most becoming trousers in the eve
| ming, which were made of very fine cam
eric, or muslin, with ich lace frills up the
calf of her leg, and insertion between each
frill. The lace frills of her trousers just
touched the instep, but the rest OF the
trousers was visible under and through
the transparent skirt of white muslin.-

it is expended for necessary supplies, while the
re ainder is divided between labor and taxes.
Hence the cost of production has exceeded the
value of the article produced. Shall this policy
continue Extensive cotton crops have eVinced
Es. An equally uniform adhesion to mixed hus-
bandry wonld secure our recuperatiGn.
Patrons of the South, do you appreciate your
privileges? Reflect upon your opportunity to eX-
act tribute of the World. Cotton is a necessity
and the extent of that necessity can be calculated
with exactness. 1t is eqally well known what
proportion of that necessity must be supplied by
the cotton States of America. If 3,5 0,0O0 bales
are grown, they will be consumed before another
crop can be gathered, and remunerative mar
ket price will be sustained by the consequent de-
mand. If $500 00G bales are grown, the large
marginal excess will control and depress the
market. 1t is not within the power of our or
ganiZaton to control this feature of our cOndi-
ton. Alternatives for success are numerous,
but we need rely upon the single one of cooper
ating in the determination to subsist at home.
With this end attained, there is reason why
We should not be the happiest, most independent
and prosperous people on earth
