HOW Tlrnt Thrx wsnr Tnem

X. m IN Harpers Bazar.J
The extremities to which fashion
has advanced in London in female
attire are really ~deplorable. A lady
on whose truthfulness l can depend
conides to me the following par
ticulars: She was asked the other
day to inspect the wedding trous-
seau of a young lady of high rank.
The dresses were very numerous
aud beautiful, and every accessory
Of attire was in the hight Of fash.
Ion, if not of good taste. "But
where" inquired my friend, sis
the underclothing?"
cob" said the milliner with a
smile of pity, ladies wear none
nowadays. They wear these in
stead" And she pointed to three
complete suits, not of armor, but
of chamois leather.
1t is only over channels leather
that the skirts from Worth can be
strained tight enough. At Bristol
the other day, the mayor gave an
entertainment to the Lord Mayor
of London, and the occasion seemed
SO important that one lady guest
sent to Paris for her dinner dress.
1t was so tight when it came that
she had to take off garment after
garment before she could get into
It at all. And then she had to sit
down at the table. / I'M told her
Sufferings were considerable during
the repast but her worst misery
was the reflection, chow shall I
get up again ?" Eventually she
did get up, thanks to the gentlemen
on each side Of her, who pulled
down the refractory garment by
main force.
AT the yerylast drawing-room at
Buckingham palace a similar
catastrophe took place. A lady
made her bow to the queen a little
too low for her kicking-trap p
las a man would call it, but l dare
say Mr.. Worth has a prettier name,
and it slipped down SO far that she
could not get up again. The lord
high chamberlain himself had to
come forward and set her up.

sundries, and had a big list Of peo-
pie. She returns this evening to
White river, going through to Jack
sonpOrt and connecting with the
low water packet Trader for Black
river. She also attends to all way
business on Little Red river. Chas.
Postal and Count Chamberlin have
charge of the Office.
The steamboatmen continue to
complain about the wharf. Il is
so contracted aud in such a deplo-
rable condition hat steamboatmen
have to pay double expenses in
order to receive and discharge their
cargoes. The Improvement of the
leyee ought to be pushed forward
as rapidly as possible. The river is
now about as low as it will get, and
a large force of men should be put
to work. The steamboatmen
should follow the example of Capt.
Van Hook, of the Tolle, which
passed up Sunday. He refused to
pay wharfage and did not pay; and
the city cannot by law make a
steamer pay wharfage while the
landing is in its present condition.
The Charles Morgan, alias the
Morgan Rstler, with the popular
and experienced boatman, Captain
Alf Stein, in command, leaves
Glenn's wharfboat to morrow
morning at 10 o'clock for New
Orleans, making all principal
way landings. The Morgan runs
on schedule time and has no SUI
perior as a passenger packet. Dur
ing her retirement at Cincinnati
she was reprinted and put in COM
plete order for the fall and winter
season. Captain Stein also put
new cylinders in her, which will
increase her speed two miles an
hour and enable her to make her
fourteen-day trips to Cincinnati
with more regularity than she did
last season. She carried more pas
sengers last season than any other
steamer that assembled the Ohio,
and she is by far the most popular
boat that plies in the Cincinnati
and New Orleans trade. Harry
Stein, a chip of the old block, and,
by the way, a courteous gentleman,
presideS in the Office, and he never
fails to please and make comforta-
BILE on his packet the most fastidi-
GUS. Wait for the Morgan if you
wish a safe and pleasant trip down
the river.

Buyers this morning seemed inclined
to hold off and await q more settled mar
ket. There was q slight decline in prices,
with a quiet and steady market and fair
inquiries but light transactions. Liver
pool spots and futures we're steady, with
arrivals l.32d higher. New York spots
and futures were easy. The advices
had little effect or the market here. Es-
timated sales for the day, 1900 bales;
yesterdays sales amountedto l4OO bales,
of which exporters took HOO and spin

Commodore James Wise, super
intendent of the Memphis and

to locate a wharfboat at the land

freights.
