OUR NEW DRESS.

For the third time since our connection with the Enquirer we have renewed the type used for its reading matter. In substituting the Brevier for the Bourgeois size we have under taken more work for ourselves, and consider ably increased the amount of editorial and selected matter for our subscribers. It has 'neVerabeeRour pFaetices however, to boast over improvements and enlargements, but to leave our readers to discover their value for them selves and, in view of the hard times of the few past years and the sharp competition that has sprung up in this vicinity, we have no reason to complain of the support the Enquirer has received. May our relations with our patrons continue as pleasant in the future as they have been in the past!

NEWS OF THE WEEK.
FOREIGN.

1~rksy.-The war news of the week is very important. On Saturday night the Russions commenced an attack on Kars, the key fortress of Armenia, and after 12 hours hard fighting captured the place with 10000 prisoners and 300 guns. The Russian loss is stated to be about 5000, and the Turkish, 5000, killed and wounded.
 The Russians suffered heavily in the recent attack on Fort Azizie, near Erzerlm. Suleiman Pasha has been appointed Com mander-in-C Chiefin Roumelia
 The Montenegrins have captured the outer defences of Antivari. GEl
 The Bulgarians in Vratza have massacred the Mussulman inhabitants.
 The Turkish government is said to be very desirous of peace.
 Great Britain. There has been fall in sil- yer.
 The peace party in the Cabinet is said to be stronger.
 Frdnce.-Matters continue in avery disturb ed condition in France. The Orleanist Sen ators refuse to support McMahon's demand for second dissolution of the Chamber of Depu- ties Consequently the Ministry have resigned but the new ministry, as far as can be ascer- tained, is not likely to be acceptable to the ma jority of the Deputies.
 Last week the Chamber voted an investiga- tion into the ministerial conduct of the recent elections, but the Senate has passed vote sub stantially denying the right of the Chamber to make the proposed investigation.
 Fortou defended the Ministry in the Cham Der; and De Broglie, in the Senate.

 would not have been appropriate to this lati-
 tude, last week, in any sense, and everybody
 was jubilant over the fine weather, and es-
 pecially on Wednesday evening, when about one hundred and sixty guests assembled at the
 house of H. H. Morehouse, to celebrate the
 twenty birthday of his only son, Henry S. Warehouse.
 A bountiful feast of oysters and goodies
 was served in the dining room and the school l room was appropriated to the dancers Mrs.
 Warehouses little grand niece, four years old,
 entertained the company with her singing her little piping voice hushing all others to listen to the little creatures melody. Although
 there are two pianos in his parlors, the people seemed to be too much given to sociability to listen, and but little instrumental music was heard outside the dancing room. The ''Home School" reopened two weeks previously, and
 the boys are being instructed by Mr. Altar, of New Haven, I think.

 general interests of Washington, socially and

An instance of the swindles practiced by railroad companies upon their bondholders has lately come under our notice The Atlantic & Pacific Railroad Co.," of Missouri, issued their bonds about ten years since guaranteed by the South Pacific R. R, Co.," of that State. On foreclosure of the Atlantic & Pa. cific railroad the mortgages realized only ten per cent of their claims, and now the South Pacific R. R. O., solvent corporation repu- diates the guarantee signed by their treasurer on the claim that it was illegal
 The Senators who have been consulting with Mir. Hayes, report that he has strong hopes of Southern split from the straight Democracy; not immediately, perhaps, but before 1880. We have little faith in the realization of any such hope. The President is popular at the South, but the Republican party is not popular there. A good deal of Hayes support grows out of the fact that he is known to be not in full accord with Straight Republication. When it comes to. deserting Democracy, there will be very different line of conduct, we sus- pect. There can be no doubt, however, of one excellent result the negro will be.much better treated there than if the South was sharply at variance with the Administration
 The position which the Conservatives of the French Senate have taken, denying the right of the Deputies to call the late Ministry to ac- count for their conduct during the recent cleo tiOns, seems to any one accustomed to English or American constitutional questions entirely untenable. By the constitution of France the President is not accountable to the Deputies for his administration, but his cabinet is ac- cOuntable. Supposing. therefore, that the min istry were guilty Of serious misconduct during the elections it is the duty of the Houseto inn peach them. But how are they to find out whether the ministry do deserve impeachment except by previous Investigation?

 "A New England teacher of many years experience" says the Springfield Republican, recently issued in the annual catalogue of his semiuafy list of all the women who had graduated from his charge. It was signif- cant fact that of the whole number about one half still retained their maiden names" The old notion would have ranked that half as fail ures. Our idea is that education to a large extent emancipates woman from that necessity of marriage which has SO often forced her to marry badly rather than not marry at all We may not consider Anna Dickinson great actress, but we cannot but admire the lofty courage and untiring energy with which she has struggled for success. Everyone under stands that Miss Dickinson is not single for want of opportunity to marry, but because she is deyoting herself to higher pursuits. It is in this preference of hard work to matrimony that she is setting noble example to her sex -an example which, if generally followed would soon do away with the stigma that now rests on the told maid"
