Austin, November 29.-The peniten:iary
board to-day succeeded in leasing the peni-
tentiaries, the lease to run the full limit of
time, fifteen years. The Huntsville peniten-
tiary was leased by the present lessees, Messrs.
Cunningham Ellis, and the Rusk by Messrs.
O'Connor, Cherry & Co iessees of the Ten
nessee penitentiary, through their representa-
tive down here Gen. r. w. Hawley. The
lessees pay the state Sic, 600 per annum each
for the penitentiaries, and are to have control
OF all the convicts, even to those hired out
last month by the state, the lessees giving a
bond of $5o, 900 each to faithfully carry out
the states contract with reference to the latter
and all. There are to be employed inside the
walls of bqit penitentiaries seven hundred
convicts-three hundred at Rusk and four
hundred at Huntsville. After two pears, for

itentiaries, the lessees are to assume the cost
and responsibility of such transportation, the
state of course to make prison rules. 1t is es-
timated that after the first two years expires
this lease will be worth at least $4,000 clear
profit to the state. There are 872 convicts

Sealskin is as fashionable as in past seasons.
The redingote of sealskin is long and nearly
tight fitting, with plain coat sleeves. Sealskin
sacques are even longer than they were, some
of them reaching almost to the hem Of the
dress.
Pearl necklaces of many rows twined around
the throat magnificent trimmings of pearl
beaded, appliques, and fringes some of them
30 inches deep, and strings of tiny Roman
pearls twined in the hair are costly and elegant
garnitures for full-dress occasions.
White brocaded velvets for wedding dresses
now show designs of humming- birds, immense
flowers and vines, pond lilies and foliage, large
fern fronds, oak leaves, hCrse-chestnut BIOS
SONS and sheaves of wheat; some of the pat
terms are outlined with cut crystal beads or
threads of gold.
In glancing over the models Of sleeves for
winter one sees no less than IS distinct styles,
while in he ready made costumes even more
may be discovered. The plain sleeve, shaped
to the arm, is one Of the most fashionable, and
shoulder shirring is also in favor, and while
elbow sleeves are in vogue for reception and
evening robes only few sleeves are made
wide at the elbow.

A French Dinner,

From the Progress.
"What an ingenious people are the French"
writes a friend from Paris. II dined yester-
day at the table d'hote of charmingly kept
family hotel, and think the motto of that
dinner might we'll have been "Multum in par
vo." While waiting for the bouillion to be
served l counted the number of people at the
table; there were twenty-five, including my
self. Following the clear bouilion was..a fish,
deliciously boiled and served with marvel
Gus sauce; then came to a Joint of mutton; each
dish in turn, which was beautifully garnished
was placed first upon the table to be viewed
by the guests and then removed to a smaller
table at the side Of the room where stood the
maitre d'hotel ready to divide it into per
tons. The Joint of mutton, by n,
means large one, was cut deity into thin
slices and passed round by waiter, another
following with dishes of potatoes, peas, etc.
Then came said, and then a pair of plump
fowls, these being removed to the carver's ia
BILE, then begun the Ito lne) most interesting
part of the whole performance. By means OF
a pair of carving scissors and sharp knife
these pair of fowls were so cut that each one
of the twenty-five people received piece;
the drum sticks, the thighs, the wings
were even divided into parts. Their.
came an omelet soufe, followed by coffee,
cheese, etc., and dinner was over. OF course
we had plenty of excellent bread, and in front
of each plate stood bottle of good wine.
know rose from the table with my appetite
quite appeased. If l had not eaten great
deal | had at least seen much; and know
too, before midnight l had craving for
something light But still l repeat the
French are wonderfully clever people,"

Hope Deferred.

The tender trouble of her eyes
Is born of hope deferred; the tears,
In witness of her grief. arise
From day to day, through all the years.
And often in her sleep at night
Are visions beautiful to see.
And in the darkness there is light;
And this is half her misery.
For dreams of vain delight are one
With weary waking thoughts of pain,
For when the happy night has gone
The dreary morning comes again.
And Joy and sorrow fill her eyes,
When friends surround her; sudden tears
When quiet and alone arise
From day to day, through all the years.

woLsELEl,S GOODNESS ISBarrLE.

WOLSEL EI-S GOODNESS nv BIrrLE.
All accounts are agreed, says tie
London Wortd.as to SIR GNners de-
meauor both before aud after the
fight. His GOODNESS and sci reliance
were extraordinary. Ga the morn
ing before the battle, when he took
all the Generals and their respective
stsfs to reoonnoltre the enemy's lines
he dlsmounted within couple miles
OF Tel-el- Kebir, and, gathering the
others around him. explained exactly
what be meant to do. With short
stick he pointed to the entrenohments
as he might to blackboard in leo
ture room, and quietly indicated in
turns the position OF each part of the
attacking force. He had the whole
thing off by heart, knew aud explain.
ed in exact detail what every regi-
ment had to do. While they were
thus occupied, protected only by a
small cavalry escort. the enemy sent
out party to observe them, but
made no further demonstration.
Wo!seley's lecture finished, they
all remounted and rode back TO
camp.
After the battle was practically
won, Sir Garnet came to the bridge
across the canal communicating the
right with the left attack, and, get
ting off his horse, quietly began to
write his telegram announcing the
victory on scrap Of paper handed
to him by one OF his staff. Here, too,
he received the reports from the va
rious staf officers of divisions and
brigsdes asking more particularly as
to casualties. Are you quite sure p
he always said. Don't give me
wrong figures. Don't mention any
officers name unless you are quite
positive be is hit, All this time he
was giving orders right and left, now
to one staff officer, now to another,
and through it all confusing and EN-.
barrassng as the situation might we'll
have been, was perfectly quiet and
unconCerned.

ANIuPomrANT DECISION.

An aged man and his wife were
travelling on the Memphis and
Charleston Railroad. Tney had
round trip tickets tne time OF which
had expired. The conductor
demanded full iares in money,
and, 90 they refused to pay,
put them of the train at
a small station, where they remain
ed in great discomfort all the night.
They were somewhat injured, too,
by the force which their resistance
made necessary in ejecting them.
They sued for damages. Judge Ham.
mond of the United States Court, in
instructing the jury to fla for the
company, set forth the law as fol-
lows "a passenger having limi-
ted ticket which has expired,
although he may have an understand
ing with the station agent who sold
it to him that it would be good after
the limit, has no right OF action for
the election, it not being wrongful.
1t is the PASSENGERS duty to submit
without resistance, except in defence
against impending bodily injury; and
his resistance will excuse force nee
essary to eject him. When there is
dispute on the train about tie ticket,
1T is the passenger duty, if able, to
pay the extra fare and recover it in
a subsequent euit against the road"
