A wHo1zssucHAnezm wonxns DRESS
Perkins in the N. Y. SUM-

Ell ferklns IN the n. 4. Sun.
Saratoga, Aug. At is a strange
thing that fashionable dressing has
almost ceased at Saratoga. lean
remember the time when Young
ladies came here with ten OF twelve
trunks aud appeared in u new morn
ing and q new evening dress every
day for three weeks. When they
reached the last new dress they new
er repeated before q Saratoga audi
ence, but went to Newport or Long
Branch and ground them through
again. I knew two young Baltimore
Bellies once who, on arriving at Sar-
atoga, found their toilet trunks
missing, and they kept their rooms
in almost solitary confinement for
five days, and finally left in sorrow
rather than appear q second time in
the same toilet. A week afterward
they returned to Saratoga and stay.
ed until they had appeared in as
many as fifteen different full dress
tOilets-eacll toilet with different
lace, fans, jewelry and kid shoes to
match. La those times-frOm 1860
20 1S67-in was no uncommon thing
to see sweeping the balconies dozens
Of dresses covered with point aud
ValeDciennes lace costing $1,000.
The bellies of New York and Buffalo
and Chicago and Cincinnati We'd
with the more dashiBg bellies from
Louisville and Baltimore. and other
cities of the South.
WHAT A CHANGE
The mode in Saratoga this sum-
NOR is not 10 dress. l do not think
ten full-dress party dresses have. ap-
peared in Saratoga this season, and
these have been worn 6y brides or
dashin&youDg ladies from Califor-
MIA or the West. People come to
Saratoga nowadays more for social
intercourse aud rest. They do not
come to stun each other with ex-
pensive toilets and nObby tandem
teams. Managing mothers come to
make acquaintances, young ladies
come to flirt and catch rich hus-
bands, aud old bachelors come to
win fortunes with rich widows.
Now and then they will take charge
of an old maid, if her parents are
wealthy and they can have the as
surance that their future wives will
support them as gentleman should
be supported.
NEWEST STYLES.
The newest styles in Saratoga
were introduced by the Countess
d. The Countess comes fresh
from Paris, and is affected by Mr..
Belmont and the Turkish Ambassa-
dor. She appears on the States
balcony with her hair neglige-drop-
ping behind the head in an old fash
toned waterfall, secured by a. silk
net. In fact. fashionable yOnng
ladies now wear their hair in the
style of the dairymaids up in st.
Lawrence county or like the waiter
girls on Cherry street.
The skirt of. the Countess is worn
exceedingly short in frOnt-say six
inches from the floor. The skirt
sticks out and shows striped stock
ings. Behind is demi-train. The
striped stocking fever has attacke ed
all the young ladies at Saratoga
bad. Even many married ladies
have got it. They say it makes their
calves look large. know it makes
many calves look long and atten-
tively-especially if the young lady
is plump and pretty and affects the
short dress front.

cided is. what the invigornnt shall be. A
standard tonic and restorative, which has
been many years before the public, and
in which millions of the intelligent classes
reposc the fullest faith, seems, in o case
like this, to present the strongest claims
to the confidence of the prudent invalid.
Hostetter's Stomach Bitters may be truly
said to possess these high recommends

The Legislature.

Correspondence of the Chattanooga Times.
The record Of the Legislature
will not be Il very enyiable one.
Pre-announced as the best Leg
islature the State has ever had,
they have failed to do those
things which they ought to have
done and not done those things
they ought to have done, and
there is no health in them. =
The best that could happen for
the Democratic party in Tennes-
see would be to have an opposi-
ton minority strong enough to
teach them the importance Of
unity and the necessity for wis
dom in council and prudence in
action. y few more such
Legislatures as this will be apt
to give US a Republican majority.
If they have met ii single ques
ton III an open mani y manner, l
have failed to see it. The
schemes of reputation end worth
less rag currency have SO far iai =
ed, only because the few memJers
of each House who knew the
dangers before them succeeded in
