CRUEL PUNlSt1MENTS.

The constitution Of the United States
and the constitutions of the various
states in prohibiting cruel and unusual
punishments were not fighting an alb
processes was not, when these inStru
ments were framed, so remote as it Is
now.
When Sir Thomas Dole came as high
marshal to Virginia he crushed a con-
spiracy by killing the ringleadars by
torture. One had a bodi1in thrust
through his tongue and was chained
to a tree until he died. Others were
broken on the wheel. 1t is quantity
stated that Sir Thomas was "a man
of good conscience and knowledge in
divinity" Dole's date was 1911.
The next notable instance of the use
of torture was in 1862, in the Salem
witchcraft excitement, when Giles
Cory was pressed to death-the "peine
dure ct forte" the most horrible OF
deaths.
Executions were in public through
out the east until comparatively recent
times. When Quelch, the pirate, and
six others were hanged in Boston, Sew
all wrote in his diary, "When the scat
fold was let to sink there was such a

SECRETS OF THE MODESTO.
BY Beatrice DoWier.

New York, Nov. 24.-Again / am
Obliged to give some hints respecting
the coming fashions. The dressmakers
are very jealous about disclosing their
forthcoming creations, and safeguard
them with almost ferocious ingenuity;
but in matters of dress the best laid
schemes of strategy must yield before
the Unsuitable curiosity of woman;
and it is because / have been fortunate
enough to capture some of these Sc
crets that I am able to make them
available to my readers.
In form the dresses and corSageS
which will be worn during the winter
will not differ materially from those
made familiar in the preceding
months. For example. the sleeves con-
tinue to show slight tendency to en-
largement in the upper part, fact
which will compel us to widen consid-
erably the sleeves of our jackets. Furs
will of course, have TO follow the same
movement Small sack jackets in "Nu-
trya," a sort of beaver-otter skin, will
be much in evidence at the morning
promenades and drives in the Bots de
Boulogne. and with them will be worn
skirts of fawn-colored cloth These
sack jackets are made without collar.
are cut low around the neck and en-
crusted with tdffetaS or other similar
material. For more ceremonious occa-
sions either boleros or what are called
"gazons de boleros''-that Is to say, the
style in which that garment is indict-
ed by an arrangement of the trim
ming of the costume-will continue
their vogue. Short waists, of the En-
pire style, will be la mode. just as
they were last season.
For morning wear a most attractive
material will be much seen. 1t is
of velvet-chess-b board pattern-the
squares being white and deep chestnut.
These dresses will be trimmed with
bands of fluffy cloth, known as "tete de
negre."
With respect to furs. it should be
stated that they are worn most charm
ingly mixed with velvet and lace. A
mantle or caracol, with braided black
gauZe sleeves has been seen. and is
sure to attract a great deal of atten-
ton. And it must be admitted that on
fur garments nothing can be more eff
fective than sleeves of lace or velvet.
Caracol which will be much worn this
winter. possesses this popularity that
it's curls are f1atter than those of the
BreitschwanZ. In fact it resembles
much in appearance a velvet beaten.
or MORE. Trimmings of lacework. or
of embroidered ribbons, are used with
it, 1t is worn in different coiors. but
the shade most in favor appears to be
that of a light-hued shell. Worn with
costumes of similar tone, this material
has a most elegant effect With re-
spect to what may be called the rich
furs, chinchilla. ermine and silver
fox will be very popular, and the zibe-
line still more so. The laSt-named
holds an indisputable place in the esti-
nation of our elegantes. For evening
wear, rough Irish lace, relieved with
striking designs, goes well with ermine.
Fancy furs are, of course. chosen ac-
cording to the taste of the wearer. The
mole can be utilized very effectually
for jackets and such like.

VARIETY IN TAILOR GOWNS.
BY Sophia eeaneret.

London, Nov. 24.-Antecedent to the
psychological moment when winter
fashions become a grim necessity we
notice many frocks of a sartorial order,
which are neither autumnal nor yet
winter. and which might be termed "in-
termediate,' and very necessary cos
tunes they occasionally are. Taking it
all round. the general appearance of the
tailor-made frOck and. indeed, the
tailor-made girl, has vastly improved or
late years. To begin with. the variety
in styles-I mean, of course in the cos
tumes-has been so endless that the tall
and short woman can be equally well
coated. And now the moment has ar
rived when it is my pleasant duty TO
chronicle the fashions which will, un-
less things change very greatly, mark
the winter of 1867 AS / have previ-
ously foreshadowed in these columns,
and as can now emphatically confirm,
il is TO be a very magnificent season.
Especially magnificent are the combi-
nations'of material and furs, and this is
the moment when we may ransack the
family treasure boxes for old brocade
Innings. discarded buckles and embroi-
deries of gold and silver: not to speak
of those thousand and one little nick
hacks which most of US possess in the
way of hand embroideries and trim
mings of real Valenciennes lace.
Then the fabrics for best day dresses
and evening ecoats are in themselves
glorious. We have returned to the old
fashioned MORE antique in practical as
well as in the elaborately shot, shades.
Lovely coats are made of peau de sole
and sumptUous duehesse satin, with the
souple finish of the modern manufac-
turer,f and of chiffOn-velours and panne

world styles with all the ingenuity of
the modern costuner. We need adhere

CLOTHES TO MATCH THE
SEASON.
BY Madame Hydorne.

Paris, Nov 24.-While awaiting the
actual appear ance of the winter crea-
tions. we have already had foretaste
Of them at the morning promenades in
the Bots de Boulogne and in he after
noops at Longchamp during the races.
These are nearly all LaiiOr-madeS OF
striped woollens and il is great nov
city that the stripes of these costumes,
although Of two different tones of gray,
are. as it were, blended together: that
is the secret of their beauty. At the
last meeting at Longchamp. the Mar
quise de Ganay wore a dress in this
style, pekinee gray on gray; the skirt
was quite plain and partly hidden by
the trails of & long jacket with velvet
reVers, trimmed with white ViOiets. The
marquise had a hat in the nature of a
tOque something after the style affect
ed by Mile Bartst, of the Comedy
Franchise which still more accentuat-
ed her resemblance to that charming
artist A long veil of very fine black
Chantilly enveloped the hat and the
face at one ard the same time. The
CoLntesse de Nun wore an exactly sim
liar costume, but with -lue violets
smartening the revers IF the corsage.
On her hat of white felt trimmed with
light tulle the countesse had a very
pretty 'fantaisie of gray and white
wings.
The true costume of the moment is
the one when best corresponds with
this autunlnal period Of transition. A
number of tailor-madeS are also being
fashioned in plum color, dark blue or
furthermore, such as that worn by the
Baroness Lambert de Rothschild. Mrs.
p Belmont was dressed in a delicious
costume of dark blue, which admirably
set off her elegant figure and had on
oh. inc 1,ot Of f7ff oil
trimmed with reddish brown tulle, md
n magnificent bird, called the velvet
Mantle" with dark brown, almost
black. plumage.
I will also mention the hat of Bar
cness Henri de Rothschild. 1t was like
wise of white felt. its shape approach
ing the Louis XVI. \ band of black
velvet outlined the brim, and IL was
completely covered with those light and
delicate white aigrettes, so much in the
fashion now, which are moved by the
slightest breath of wind. This hat &C
companied a robe of black cloth, very
supple. the jacket being inlaid with
squares Of black Venice lace; gray
boots with the goloshe of black patent:
round the neck a very fine silver fox
'ur. The latter. with sable stoles and
-ray ana white feather boas, are the
most charming accOmpaniments of
dcmi-SaisCn robes.
Velvet will play a prominent part this
winter. 1t will be a very serious rival
TO cloth. whose success it will counter
balance. Greatly will this material, be-
loved above all others, triumph. and il
viii be seen everywhere. 1t must be
said that velvet presents itself this year
under such a multiplicity of new as
poets. and all very charming that this
alone suffices to explain its vogue.
Striped and figured velvets, which we
already know. appear in new and very
attractive tints, such as snake gray

and ''malvoisie," while China velvets
come also in new coiors. squirrel fawn,
duck blue and titmouse blue, Direc-
toire green and wild thyme green. As
for the ''frisson' Velvets, which date
from last year they have so multiplied
their colors that today one can count
143 shades, all different. Thus there
will be plenty to choose from.
So much for the velvets already in
existence. Among the new ones there
is the pekin-Velcurs, with very small
stripes. tone on tone. 1t is preferred in
shades of plum. paste gray, bronze and
yleux rose. We have also the ''velours
muScoVite." which is also known by the
less poetic name of pied de pouie. 7"
This is due, doubtless, to the fact that
it reproduces the irregular design which
characteriZes the skin of hens legs.
1t is made in white, and maroon, in

but the white and maroon is most used
The "velours miroites'' are obtained by
passing a glazing roller over English
velvet. Some are striped, others check
cred, after the manner of ribbed vel
vets, but the rib has no relief. On the
other hand. one of the most original of
the miroites velvets is the ''velours
cOrde" which has a very high relief. 1t
quite gives the illusion of a heavy cord.
hence its name. In shades of gray and
beige it lends itself to delightful walk
ing costumes for morning wear.
But the great success, the really great
success, will go to the "lumineux" and
.'eblouissants' velvets, and to the We
lours ecossais with large checks. The
latter. which all the large cutting
houses have adopted. form large
"draught boards" in which the black
enters into combination with another
color-red and black, green and black,
gray and black, and SO on: the other
cOlors are less in request. OF this ma
terial, exquisite Partisan tailor-mades
are fashioned with supple lines In all
the desired simplicity. The luminous
and dazzling velvets will make equal
ly adorable costumes.

Tea in the ordinary acceptance of the

ceased to drink the simple infusion
