It Um lady readers of the Repob-
: should be without delay appris-
Mothior of mom importance has
rred in the realm of fashion since
the edict was issued that compelled
aU street dresses to bo car tailed, and
gave to mankind hitherto unknown
opportunities for tke-etudy of the un-
derstanding? of the weaker sex. That
mysterious and potent oracle which
speaks from the penetralia of fashion's
temple, and'whose decrees are obey-
1 with zealous promptitude in eveiy
iviliud and christianized country un-
der heaven, has now ordained that
crinoline is to be worn no moro. In
its stead is to be assumed what a caré-
ill informed observer might
tobe our old acquaintance,
i bustle," but, which unexception-
al authority enables me to state is
really a "panier." Let not the be-
wildered reader search in Webster'B
unabridged for a definition of this
word. It.is freshly coined, and has
significance only to those who accept
its meaning as described by the mo-
dule who fabricates this new adorn-
ment or appendage of the female form.
It is *'a gathered puff," located in
that .region where once the "bustle**
stood, and over it the outer garment
is made to fail iu winning graceful-
ness. Tne subject is a delicate one;
it admits of argument only aposteriori,
and I prefer to drop it with the hint
that here, at least, no lady will be
considered fully reconstructed unless
she accepts this supplementary sec-
tion of tie toilet. And with this re-
mark, let me hasten forward to de-
scribe the other novelties of the fash-
ion which will rule the female world
for tho.next five months, and which
werq unveiled to public view on
"opening day," the twenty-fifth of
this month.
Sam Weller once remarked that if
his eyes "was a pair of patent double
million magnify iu' gas microscopes of
liexua power," he might be able to
discern objects that were at present

An Unsociable Bedfellow.
aeoaaon «I
-o'clock one even-
inn in the westeiti
and demanded
for the night
t waa evident from his appear-
ance and actions that he and liquor
bad been jolly good companions
throughout the day. The landlord
was a lazy, good-natured soul, jmd
had imbibed rather freely tbat day
himself. " lí I give you a light,
and telL you where the room is, can
find the place 1" said the land-
you :
lord.
"Och, and it's meself that can do
that most illigantly^ Just show me
the way, an I'll find it as aisy as the
Holy Vargln showers down, bless-
ings upon the sinful," rejoined the
Irishman."
. The directions were given him,
and also a candió He was directed
to go to a room on the second floor of
the house. By th time he ad
reached the top of the stairs bis light
had become extinguished, and he had
forgotten in what direction he was to
go. Seeing rays of light issue from
a room, the door of which stood
Elightly ajar, he reconnoitred the in-
side of the room, and found it to
contain a bed in which lay a man,
and a stand with a small lighted
lamp upon it.
Feeling disinclined to make any
further search foi the room to which
he had been directed, he divested
himself of his clothing, and quietly
crept into bed.
He had not been in bed but a few
moments, when a young lady and
gentleman entered the room. The
Irishman eyed them closely. They
seatad themselves on chairs in close
proximity tp each other, and after
chatting merrily for a short time, in a
very cousinly manner, the young
man threw his arm around her waist
and imprinted a.kissnp^n her-tempt-
ing lips. The «cene amused the
Irish mau vastly, and being free from
selfishness, he concluded that his
sleeping companion should bo a par-
ticipant in the enjoyment of the
scene, and nudged him, but without
caasing him to stir. He put his
hand upon him, and found that he
was tigliily locked in the embrace ot
death. Synonimonsly with this dis-
covery, he bounded out of bed, ex-
claiming :
"Mnrther ! murther ! ITowIy Saints
I of Hiven protect me."
He had scarcely touched the floor
with his feet before the young lady
and gentlemen were making r; pid
strides towards the stairway, terror
being depicted on their countenances.
They had just reached the top of
the stairs, when, the Irishman came
dashing along as though the fiends
of Erebus were close at his heels,
iuteut on making him th-ir prey, and
the whole three went tumbling down
the stairs, and it is hard to determine
wVich of the three reached the foot
of the stairs first.
The landlord stood agli- Ft as the
Irishman rushed into the bar-room,
the hair on his head standing on end,
his eye balls ready to stait from
their sockets, and he grasping for
breath.
It was a sight that would have
nade a man laugh who had worn a
.inegar face trom the day of his
jirth. Nothing could induce him to
;eek a bed again that niglTt
When the young lady and gentle-
nan found that it is was not the
corpse who had so unceremoniously
jouuded from the bed, theji ret urned
o the room, (they being the watch-
ers for the night.) and doubtless
commenced their courting at the
point whero it was so suddenly
broken off.

iutti uu trace oi meir existence can
be seen. Trained dresses for the
house are .very full at the back,
•lightly plaited over the hips, but per-
fectly plain in front.
Littlb Short Cakbs.—Rub into
a pound of dried flour four ounces ot
butter, four ounces of white powder-
ed sugar, one egg, and a spoonful or
two of thin cream to make into paste.
When mixed, put currants into one
half, and caraways into the rest. Gut
them as before and bake on tins.
French Rolls.—Rub an ounce of
butter into a pound of flour; mix one
egg, beaten, a little yeast that is not
bitter, and as much tnilk as will make
a dough of a middling stiffness.
Beat it well, but do not knead; let it
riao, and bake on tins.
LiqhtFabiilyBiscvit.—Onequart
floor; one tablespoonful salt; one
toaspoonful soda; two teaspoonful
cream tartar, mix^well; one table-
spoonful butter or lard, mix in, wet
w'lh sweet milk; rolled out soft; cut
with top of a glass.
Molasses Dbdf Cash.—One cup
of molasses, one-half cup of butter
one-half cup of water, three cups of
flour, two tablespoonsful of ginger,
^one of nod*. Beat the ingredients
well together, and drop with a spoon
a buttered tin.
The Memphis Post, in introducing
he following extract from one of the
lew Or'e-tns papers, enumerating
íe advantages of the Ramie plant
ver cotton, remarks:
Thisnew substitute for cotton is
aid to be largely engaging the atten-
ou of Southern planters, who are
ntering upon its cultivation with en-
husiasin. It was brought originally
rom the Island of Java, and has
jeen domesticated in Mexico, where
it grows finely. Its fibre closely re-
sembles the best sea island cojton.
The plant is best propagated from
roots or cuttings, and, if the truth is
told, it will eventually become a far
more im'portaut staple than cotton
now is. It is said to require but very
little labor in order to sectue a lux-
uriant growth and an abundant yield.
According to the New Orleans papers
the following points have been es-
tablished :
1. That the plant can be very
easily cultivated in both the alluvial
and upland soil of the South-western
States. 2. Tbat'its fibre is strong
and as fine as that oi flax or cotton,
and that it is worth in Europe double
the best Sea Island cotton, and four
times tbe best upland. 3. Tbat it
may be made, in the climate of Louis-
iana, to yield four crops a year, each
crop of more pounds to tbe acre than
in any ordinary yield of cotton. 4.
That is not liable to be destroyed by
the caterpillar or other agencies so
commonly destructive to cotton. 5.
That it requires but little labor after
the ground has been prepared, and
will extend its roo s and propagate
itself almost i ndeffinitely in any dir
rection that may be marked ont fo-
ils growth. In addition to these
statements, it also appears that the
Commissioner of Agriculture at Wash-
ington has examined specimens of
the cloth made trom the Ramie fibre
and testifies that they "fully indicate
that superior goods can be manufac-
tured from this valuable plant."
