The Morning Dress.

It IL said that q lady's standing in socie-
ty can easily be determined by her dress
at the breakfas1-table; an expensive,
snowy costume indicating that the wearer
has not yet learned the proprieties. But
no one need be afraid of bein. called
" shoddy" if her loneliness is as apparent
by daylight as at the hops. Perfect beau
ty Is never the attendant Of disease; above
all, of those diseases peculiar to women,

Death Of General O. n. Mcclellan

New YORK Oct ao.--General
George b. Mcclellan, ex-Commander
of the armies of the United States,
died suddenly this morning at 3;Io
o'clock from exhaustion, produced by
repeated shocks of neuralgia Of the
heart, at his home on Orange Noun
tain. Though he had nearly COM
pleted his fifty-ninth year, he had pre-
served not only buoyant spirit, but a
buoyant youthful agility; therefore,
when he began, about three weeks ago,
to feel pains in the heart, neither he
nor his medical man, DR.. Seward Of
Orange, not any of his family, regarded
the matter as serious He and every
one else belived yesterday that the
troublesome malady was either gone
for good or at least for long time.
In that belief the General ordered his
carriage yesterday morning, drove to
Orange, accompanied by his only
daughter, saw several gentlemen on
business, and made an appointment
with one Of them for II o'clock to-day.
He returned home excellent spirits, ate
heartily at his meal hour and retired to
rest. About II o'clock the pains re-
turned, and a messenger on horseback
was dispatched down the hill for the
DOCTOR who came back with the least
possible delay, and when he entered the
bedroom OF the General he found the
patient in extreme agony. The paroxsms
returned with rhythmical frequency
that was alarming, and the Homeopathic
remedies which the skill of the doctor
suggested were no more efficient thar
those which had been supplied by the
intelligent affection Of General McClel
lan's wife and daughter, who had minis
tered to him increasingly from the frs
alarm. For four hours he snfferee the
most excruciating agony. About :
, o'clock there was change. The eye.
Of the patient began to grow brighter
and his face, that had been white with
pain, began to recover its usual rudd,
hue. He gave a long deep sigh Of re
lief, smiled family, and said |: 81 fee
easy now; thank God, / have pulled
through" Then he sank back upor
the pillow as if exhausted, closing hi.
eyes. The doctor, who was watching hi
face with extreme solicitude, saw tn,
unerring signs of approaching collapse
and whispered to Mrs. Mcclellan 81
| fear he is dying" 1t was but too true
/ General Mcclellan raised himself uI
on one hand, half opened his eyes, ane
fell back dead.

UNITED STA rEs STA rrsrIcs.


Scribner's Statistical Atlas of the
United States is a work lately pub
lished in New York by Messrs. Charles
Scribner's Sons. Tom Hoods con-
tempt for the kind Of humanity called
statistical fellows" is perhaps shared
in some degree by all reflective per
sons, who perceive that the mathema
tical count Of anything whatever is not
the most satisfactory. And yet the
statistical conception of things is a
natural one; for all things are to us
either great or small and ttere we have
the notion otcomparison and as the
next notion is how great or how small
the measurements and the figures fol
low The United States is great
country, the people who inhabit it
believe and figures are necessary to
convince them; but just how great it
is and all the immeasurable peculiari-
ties of its greatness are facts that only
very great figures can show. The
statiscal plan Of the book is very simple.
All the facts are digested under thir-
teen heads, viz Physical Geography,
Political History, Progress Population,
Mortality, Education, Religion, Occu-
pations, Finance and Commerce, Agri-
culture, Live Stock and Products,
Manufactures and Miscellaneous.
Some of the curiosites of these
figures are noticeable. Maine for
instance, is that one Of all the States in
which consumption is most prevalent
and fatal; but the general ratio Of
deaths from diseases Of the respiratory
organs is greater in Nevada than else
where. Colorado is next to Nevadh in
this respect-a fact which seems to
indicate that the high and dry plateaus
are not such salutory regions as has
been thought. Pneumonia, whose raw
ages have within recent years attracted
so much attention in this region, is
more fatal than any other disease in
Washington Territory. Other curiosi-
ties of disease will surprise those who
commonly look upon the great cities as
seed-beds OF all tie ills thut flesh is
heir to, since they seem to indicate
that many maladies supposed to be
related to filth, vice or want, are worth
in the rural regions. Diphtheria, for
instance, is proportionally worse in
Utah than in any other place, far worse
than in any State with great cities.
Wyoming Territory has the worst
record for scarlet fever Connecticut
has the greatest ratio Of deafmltes to
population, Vermont the greatest ratio
of idiots, the District Of Columbia the
greatest of insane, New Mexico OF
blind and the ratio Of paupers to
population is as follows New Hamp-
shire has most, and Maine, Vermont
and Massachs sets follow in the order
which they are named. This is not so
good showing as we should expect
from thrifty New England, whose
people have for great while had much
10 say about pauperism in this neigh
borhood. Neither is New York the
worst seat Of infant mortality,
though sometimes in the summer We
kill hundred day. New York is
thirty-hrst in the list which shows the
ratio Of deaths OF children under one
year old to the total population, the
State that has the worst record stand
ing as number one.
