Tilting Hoop? ?nd False Calves. Mach has already been written, and much remains to be written, about one of the late innovations made in ladies' apparel, so far at least as re? gards a speciality-hoops. Last winter, we read in Northern papers a great deal in reference to skating carnivals, and other recrea? tions too numerous to mention, at nil of which were presented scenes that astonished the "oldest inhabitants," for in such large assemblages it was a thing hitherto unknown-the striking uniformity and wonderful symmetry exhibited in the persons of the Lidies. As in tho olden times there were ex? ceptions to the general rule, so the elderly ones expected to find excep? tions at this day. Their expectations were vain. Now, how or why this should be, no one could^conjecture. The curious proceeded at once to the unraveling of the mystery, and their inquiries resulted in the discovery that "false calves" had been' imported into this country, and were being worn by ladies of the class called elite. They are of two kinds. One is . stuffed with hair-the other with saw? dust; the latter, of course, being the cheapest. Speaking of these, the Cleveland Plaindealer, of a late date, says: v 'Yesterday afternoon, a yonng lady with tilting hoops and false calves was perambulating through the park, when suddenly one of the calves burst Our readers can imagine the result. The poor young lady could - ba traced by a trail of saw-dust from Rouse's block to the post office. (Excnse a tear.) Thus the maiden who entered tho park in form resem? bling the Venus de Medicis, and emerged therefrom in a state of spin? dle-shanked angularity; her great mistake consisted in not getting hair calves-they being leas liable to burst , and of a more pliable nature. Be? lieve us, dear ladies, if you will wear the new-fangled improvements on nature's pattern, that the hair style is the cheapest. "We presume the young lady fainted when she learned the extant of her misfortune. But, as an exchange says, what's tho use of railing at false calves-they are a mere matter of form." This is bnt one of the hundred jeers to which the women of the coun? try have been subjected, and will still subject themselves, by adopting and adhering to every miserable fashion which may be introduced. Tilting hoops come in for an equal share of newspaper notices, and fur? nish to newspaper critics an exhaust less theme upon which to exercise that faculty. They have arousod the righteous indignation of the clergy. In New York city, a few Sabbaths ago, one of the Jesuit Fathers, con? nected with tho Church of St. Fran? cis Xavier, in Sixteenth street, spoke his mind freely on the use of thom. The correspondent of the Louis? ville Democrat says: "Ho admonished tho female por? tion of his congregation that they must give up the abomination alto? gether, or cease to come to the con? fessional. Nothing half so immodest or immoral had ever boan witnessed ?n New ?York before. A stranger might be forgiven the suspicion that _our wives and daughters were all turning courtezans. "Ha did not know what the fash? ions wore at the theatre or opera, be? cause he did not go to such places; but he could not shut his eyes to the nuisance, as it existed before his eyes, in front of God's holy altar. He was determined to abate it so far as the Church of St. Xavier was con? cerned; other clergymen could do as they liked. This clerical blast agains' Jhe garment in question created au i???iense sensation, A narty who nianufactures thom, in crtler to pro? tect his business, lias hired a Protest? ant preacher to deliver a lecture in favor^of-it. He proposes to show thatfthe tilting Koop is conducive to rlroflithi comfort aucl cleanliness, and as ' 'cleanliness is next akin to godli? ness," he will be prepared to demon? strate that the allegation as to immo? rality is _all moonshine. So you see, there are" two sides to thc question. It's a delicate one, at least, and per? haps it is better that the parsons should u?&? with it." I Pt?nteuce, Ibo witty jupiter tonans of the. Journal, warmly def ends tho stylo of hoops denounced by the New York Josaiit, ou the ground that it enables the common people to see a gre.it deal moro of society than has been their privilege. Wo have thrown thia and that to? gether ia this -writing-reserving our own opinion, in obcdienco to that good old German adage: Speech is silver, but silence is gold. ' The very- latest stylo of dress -i? that adopted by the ladies of Lan? sing, Michigan. It is said to consist of cloth pan ts like those worn by men, and au old fashioned Indian "Wanipns"or sack, which comes just above the knecR. The dressing hangs from the shoul? ders, doing away with tight lacing, and is alleged to be condueivo to health. By its adoption hoops and skirts will bc discorded. It decreases tho lady in quantity about 200 i>er cent. Now, ladies, those of you who have fallen into thc way of theso other much-abused fashions, clo pienso don't adopt thia last. Don't abandon your first estate, by becoming heathens in dress. [Augusta Chronicle and Sentinel. MISCEGENATION AND PURITAN PHI iiANTunopr.-Tho Troy (New York) Whig tells tho following story: Some time since there was a family in Sandgate, Vt, with a sable black man as husband, from fifty to fifty five years old, and a white woman, some ten or fifteen years younger, as ii wife, with four children, three of whom were white and tho fourth n mulatto, the issue of this white and black married couple. The woman had been the wife of a white soldier, who was killed in battle, and tho throe children were the offspring of this marriage. The women was in bad health and in the first stage of consumption. The family became a town charge, ! and had to bo supported at the ex? pense of tho people of Sandgate. The cute Sangatians concluded, however, not long to beal* tho load of their support, and they accordingly for? warded this black and white family to Cliicago ; where, having no means of support, they became a public charge ou tho poor fund of that city. The Chicago authorities inquired into the facts about this family, and learning the nature of tho present sent them by the Sandgate officials, they immediately started the family back to the place from whence they came, paying their railroad fare hence. This family arrived in Troy, on Saturday night, after the train had gone North, and having no place to stay, and no sufficient means to pay a hotel bill, they applied to the Second Police Station House for lodgings and shelter, until they could take their departure by this morning's early Northern train. Tho request was granted, and they were guests at the Hotel do Police all day yesterday. The woman is in feeble health, and evidently has tho consumption, This whole affair is little creditable to the humanitarians of Sandgate, who seem. to prefer sending their contributions to the freedmen of the South, rather than to expend them in taking caro of thc colored poor at their own door. A writer in the New Orleans Chris? tian Advocate, who has been making some inquiry into tho mattel-, says that so far as he has ascertained, be? tween 2,200 church houses were burned during the war. These churches, he thinks, had cost thc people not less than ?5,000,000. In tho loss, the Methodists were thc greatest sufferers; the Baptists next; then the Presbyterians; thc Catholics least. MARBIED AND RE-MARRIED. A mau and his wife, living lovingly b>gether, in Indiana, recently found themselves divorced by a decree of court with? out their knowledge. Some joker instituted tho snit and carried it through, just to illustrate how easily divorces can be obtained in 4hnt State. Good for tho ministers! This worthy couple will now have to get married over again. A damsel was asked, "When a lady and gentleman have quarrelled, and each considers tho other in fault, which of the two ought to be tho first, to advance towards a reconcilia? tion?" lier reply was, "Tho best hearted and wisest of the two." RECIPE FOB BURKS.-By laying a piece of charcoal on a burn, the pain subsides immediately. By leaving tho charcoal on ono hour, thc wound is healed, as has l>een demonstrated on several occasions. In one of the New England villages they are going to erect a monument to Mr. Charles Sumner. He is repre? sented standing on tho hack of a nigger, and the inscription, "My brother."-Cliarlottesville Citron ide. "What flower of beauty shall I marry?" asked a young spendthrift of his governor; to which the governor replied, with a grim smile, "Mari? gold." Au analyzing darno report* that she has heard of but ono old woman who i kissed her cow, but she knows of many thousands of young ones who have kissed very great calves. An Englishman is said recently to have invented a scarecrow so effective that ono crow who saw it brought back all the corn he had stolen fur three years. GIBBES & HU???KS,!

The Only Recognized Demo? cratic Newspaper Pub? lished in New York. DAILY, SEMI-WEEKLY AND WEEKLY. TO THE PUBLIC. J THE NEW YORK NEWS baa battled^fl against despot iain for four years ?I blood and terror, in assertion of tire sane^MH tity of the Constitution. A patriotism suf-^^B ficicntly broad to embrace both sections QS^ has been its snly guide, and it refers now with honest pride to its record to show that it has not turned to the right or the left under all the violence of arbitrarv power. True to its principle? as THE NEWS has been through the reign of ter? ror, it challenges public confidence in it? A honesty and independence for the future. jfl Thc political transition of the present 1 dav opens to THE NEWS a new and wider Wk tieid of usefulness. Standing now, as it flH always lias, on tho inviolability of the fl Constitution, according to the interpreta- aH tion of the strict constructionists, it pre sents a rallying ground for alb in both see- T tions, who arc friends of a generous con? servatism. Aa a true and tried exponent of sectional amity, it occupies a position which makes it thc fitting mediator in holding np to thc party of order in both sections, interests and principles that gave breadth and vitality to their alliance. As an intorsectional agont, devoted to free? dom of election, to trial by jury, to the sanctity of the h alteas corpus, and opposed now, as for fonr years of terror it has ween, to the centralization that dares to trample on thc rights of States, North or South, THE NEWS places itself as a candidate for support before the great body of this once free people. The circumstances of the moment make the dissemination of thc principles of THE NEWS a duty of individual patriotism. Every man who concurs in its doctrine must, if he entertain a true sense of free? dom, do so in no spirit of indifference, bnt rather with the earnestness of a high trust. Justified- nay, bound in his love of liber? ty, to do so, the proprietor places the can? vass he makes here of thc public generally in thc hands of those men who give him tho approval of their consciences as his in? dividual agent?. Every reader of THE NEWS cannot avoid the conviction of duty which is here pointed out as the ground of the request, that he urges its claims for a wider support upon all of his friends and neighbors who give their earnest sympa? thies to the cause of "strict construction,** intcrscctional conciliation, and all the rights of the citizens under the system, net up bv our fathers, of liberty regulated by law.* The proprietor of THE NEWS calls, therefore, upon good and true con? servatives throughout the country to dis? charge to their convictions of political right at this great crisis in the country'? fortunes, thc duty of giving to the inn euee of his paper-daily, semi-weekly o weekly-the wider power for good which it socks hero through the service of its indi vidu&l supporters.
