T.E BELT AND CARROLLTON RAIL
ROADS AND THE DEMOCRAT.
Edlitor Tiln,,,eral-The following taken from
yesterday's l)aEMOcRAT is another evidence of
your enterprise in obtaining news:
Tile Belt Railroad.
DI7FICULTIE TO B]E AI),JUTED--ARRIVAL OF IHE
I.RESIDENT OF THE MOBILE BAItLROAD.
We understand that the differences existing
between the B]Ill Railtooad Company and the
Crescent City Kt roet Railroad CmLarUpany are in a
good way of being. adjusted. Howbet, it is the
expressed determination of our city fathers that
no unldue impediment shall b1 offered to the
Belt freight railroad, which, it is thought, should
be facilitated in completing their circuitous
route by laying their rails along Louisiana
Avenue to the main track of the Jackson Rail
road at its junction with that avenue.
Incidentally we may add that it is very gener
ally reported that the Crescent City Railroad
n. any have offered to sell to the Bitt railroad
the brahch of the Tchoupitoulas street line,
h extends from Loulsiana Avenue to the
New Orleans Park. The Belt RIallroad C)ompa
ny say, however, that they are not in the street
railroad business and don'twish to buy. If the
report be true, it must be owing to the fact that
S tlhe street railroad company have not yet been
iable to make arrangements with the New Or
leans and Carrollton Rtilroad Company for the
privilege of using the Lamm system of con
densed steam locomotives, owned exclusively by
the latter eomoany.
To omtplete the Tehounpitoulas street line
along the river front, across the park to Car
rollton, would require the laying of only a mile
and a half or two miles of rails, and it would
seem that with any other style of steam duni
tiles than the Lamm patent it could be made
profitable.
As the CarrolltonRahilroad Company does not
own the exclusive right to use the Lamm fire
less dummies, and as the CrscentCity BIalboa(d
£ Company has owned eight of those dummies.
Spd the right to use them for about a year, the
above statement is inexplicablo unless intended.
to make the Carrollton Hailroad Company atp
pear captious. With reference to the Blnt iail
:,,road it is prop-r to say that notwlthstandin
the fact that those interested in a grain railroad
have been n.'gotiat ing for several years for tihe
Oarrollton Railroad Company's exclusive right
to the middle ground of Louisiana Avenue, and
that it was fully understood that the acquisition
of those rights were necessary, notwithstand
ig the fact that it was represented to the prop
rty holders on Louisiana Avenue that the
froJeetors of the grain railroad had contracted
t or those rights, and the signatures of the prop
styt holders owning a majority of feet on said
avenue were obtained by this representation,
which was embodied in their petition to the ad
' inistrators, yet this understanding has not
n carried out biv the Bolt Railroad Company.
he roperty holders will be surprised to
learn that the intention is seemingly to pass
through the strict on either the lower or upper

Some time since some of our most public

In order to greatly facilitatt operations and

NEW OBLANS PA ISONS.
A visit to the dry goods houses at the present
time would lead usto suppose that Queen Faeh
ion had gathered together the best results of all
her efforts for the last month, and uniting them
with the frpits of persistent inquiry into the
future, had presented the charming o ombi
nation for our acceptance.
WINTER GENERALLY IMPROVES
upon the designs brought out in autumn. The
early season Is always experimental to a cer
tain extent. From tle first offerings of Fash
ion careful and becoming selections are made
and to lthese are added charming variations of
outline, which, while they do not entirely
change the characteristics of the originals, so
vary them that it becomes desirable for mod
istes to issue fresh models. Styles of fashion
are like symphonies-the variations and fan
tasies arranged from the original compositions
are mostly superior to the first melody. This
is especVally true of this year's method of ap
parelling onneoself; the old worry about the d,.
orations of a dress has almost vanished from
the minds of fashionable ladies.
IT IS THE FORM WHICH WINS
and absorbs the attention now. The polonaise
which closes at the back is still in high favor
among the younger members of society, and
the Breton basque, with its pretty vest, is as
popular as ever, but they have new designs and
varied little eceentricities which distinguish
them from those primal models that instantly
captivated the lady wearers. The polanaise mar
quise is something entirely novel and may ibe
used in fashioning plain as well as rich gar
ments; in this the seams from the neck and
shoulders extend further down over the tour
nure and hips than such seams ordinarily do;
no drapery is employed, pleats being used to
draw it back from the sides; a cuirass vest of
silk is disclosed by the cutaway front of the
material frming the polanalse, and it will be
found a beautiful deslgn for costumes made up
in two shades.
THE POPULARITY OF THE PRINCRESE
costume has strenthened the favor whicth the
heavy damask silks have already obtained, and
has als:o brought prominently forward asimilar
fabric, better adapted for visiting or carriage
wear; the latter variety comes In all the leading
dark shades for winter, and possesses inflnite
intricacies of color interwoven in fllagrcr of
arabesques; it is always used in combination
with glossy silks or satins in almost every style,
the princesso and empress leading in favor.
For instance, a princesse, considered a very
elegant. affair, was composed of moss-green
silk and velvet; the waist portion of the ba-k,
and the front and side breadths were of sill,
and the remainder of the garmhut was of velvet,
the trimmings being formed bIy a rich mingling
of the two. augmented by bows of handsome
green gros-grain harmonizing in color. The
trimming was arranged on the skirt portions of
the front so as to break the somewhat severe out
lines, and render the change from voluminous
drapery to classi simplic'ity less marked than
might be inferred, judging from the name of
the garment.
THIS LOVELY SUIT
was made by Mrs.Mogridge for a bride who iives
near Pirt Gibson. and it *ill of course cause the
Mississippi belies to sigh for just such another.
Ladies to whom the polanalse is becoming need
have no hesitancy in adopting the princesse,
for they are somewhat similar in general ap
pearance; and as the style has too prestige of
ancient fame attached to it. It has become do
servedtly popular; two materials usually enter
into its composition, and these are chosen with
reference to a decided contrast either in color or
texture. Thus they use plain silk or cashmere,
with brocaded silk or velvet for street dresses,
while for evening or reception wear thick
Instrous folds of billowy, white satin mingles
frtely with pale ciel-blue, and the richest bro
cade gleaming with the brilliant green-gold
Lingo of ripe limes called "tilleul" lies in heavy
masses over bron)z-green velvet. Madarre
Julie La. B. Fisher displays an elaborate
tostume after this model made up in black vel
vet- and brocaded silk, the front disclosing a
Louis Quinze vest.
A DRESS FOIL EVENING
at her establishment. was composed of delicate
pink silk and white crope do chino, with Louis
Qutnze vest of the silk: the train was ex
nuisitely fashioned, and the whole formed an
elegant toileot.
A street costume made by Madame Fisher was
of some beautiful plaided silk, made with skirt
"en traine," and long pn'lonaise; the trimmings
consisto I of tiny cardinal-roid pipings on the
skirt, polonaise, cuffs, pocket, and deep Pom
padour collar; it was one of the handsomest
costumes we have seen, and deserves special
mention.
The "Snow Flake"cloths will remain popular
throughout the entire winter, it is thought, but
other woolen goods show the greatest variety in
aolor. texture and price; stripes and speckles.
solids and plaids, all are good and durable.
Chintz cashmere shows stripes in dark brown
or dark green, wth faint twilled lines of white
and single, cord-like stripes of cardinal red.
Cuban cloth is a stylish material in pure wool,.
in shades of robin's egg blue, and a warm, tan
color, the figure betng an exceedingly fine
check. This is twenty-four incites wide and
sixty cents a yard. Cami's hair onters largely
into designs for street suits; it is of such soft,
beautiful texture that, combined with silk, the
cosrumespringingtherefrom is found to he a
very stylish affair. Another fabric, which is
classed with the camel's hair family. has a firm,
twilled ground of plain color, overshot with
heavy threads in two shades of the same, to
:other with a third contrasting tint in silk.
Xerges and basket cloths to not vary from the
charges of last winter. Ladies always find a
special department in every dry goods house
where a great variety if materials are to be
seen, and hbrer it is that, in lady parlance. 'b r
gains" abound in endless number; these are
mnassed on such counters under the
OENEIRAL NAME OF " SUITINOS,"
and mothers with daughters who are school
girls will be able to in.i quite a stock of " real
bargains" at Messrs. Danziger's, Fellman's and
Byrne's. The latter, we believe, has inaugu
rated Friday as special remnant day, As a
rule the fabrics of this season are characterized
vby a greater degree of refinement than those ii
vogue a year or i wo ago; rich arid effective con
trasts will still admit of quiet and subdued of
fe.ts, and ladies of slender pirses will. ere this,
have discovered that in order to reach the
standard of style it is not necessary that a cos
tume shall be fashioned of the most expensive
materials; symmetry of form. graceful but not
voluminous draperies, and above all, perfect
lilting. are the pri nipal points to be considered
in getting up a toiler. Of course, dresses de
scribed as seen at the modiste's, can serve as
models for plainer stre, t wear. or quiet "at
home.," whore white kid gloves and swallow
tail coats are not admissible.
CLOAKS-RUCHES-NECKERCHIEFS.
The Roumanian cloak is a very sylish model.
It is not auite tight lltti,,g, hut shows the out
lines of the figure to good advantage; made of
tlack velvet, and bordered with fur, mounted
with deep fur collar, it is a distinguished look
ing garment. and quite reasonable in price.
For deep, mourning it should be fashioned of
he dress material, warmly wadded, and
trimmed with de"p bands of crape.
'rhe l'levna poll'so is a stylish pat'ern for
cloth or velvet cloaks, with trimmings of silk
galloons or passementerie cord and tassels.
Very handsome cloaks are shown in dark di
agonal, or light beaver cloths with large onyx
buttons matching somewhat the color of the
clo1t. An elegant assortment of winter wraps
may be found at the establishments of Messrs.
Holmes, Danzigcr and Lavois & Jamison.
THE LARGE COLLARS AND CUFFS
will doubtless never appear upon the streets;
they seem only suitable for house wear, made
ip in linen, or for dinners and receptions,
fi'shioned of real, old lace. Cravat bows are
shown, forming lace tabs over colored silk. with
loops and long ends of ribbon; old lace e 'llars
out of vogue can be remodeled into jabots or
cravat bows. Pretty ncckerchiefs. to be worn
outside winter wralps can be made of squares
of muslin doubled in throe-cornered shape, and
edged with wide lace. Fichus of lace-edged
muslin are fashioned long and narrow. and are
worn to the edge of the basqlue. Pretty new
ruches are called the Marie Stuart, and fasten
at the back of the neck; beside the ruff that en
circhles the throat, a box pleating of tire same
falls from the throat downward over the dress,
HEAD-GEAR.
It is customary for the first designs of a season
in millinery to originate on French soil; hbut
how often a clapeaua, which would lend a mar
velous grace to tile piquant countenance of a
French woman, proves entirely unsuitable for
the varied types of faces as shown by our
American beauties. The favorite honnet of the
season is small, with a coronet front and un
rigiht crown. One of this shape at Mrs. Hardon's.
on Chartres street. had a crown of bronze silk
with shaded p:umes and streamers of bronze.
Anuth-r, the "Windsor," was very stylish in
appearance, being of felt, w th trimmings of
ta e blue plush and ostrich plum, s. The hi-lmet
hat is not a becoming one; Mrs. Hardeon tats one
prettily designed; white fel trimmed in white
velvet, and bird of paradise punmrag,. 'i he
most beautiful model was the Gainsborongh. in
white felt, with pal ' blue .cart disposed grace
fully around the crown, and a long, sweeping
plume falling to the ack.
At Madame Fisher's, on Canal street,
A LOVELY EVENING HAT
was of white felt, trimmed in white velvet, satin
streamers, and with a spray of exquisitely
tint' d grasses disposed on the crown. Another.
the Capricieuse was a gem in its way; around
the crown was a band of ostrich feathers, with
loops and streamers of reversible mogr.s-grain
old gold on one side eardier red on the other;
three ostrich tips to one
side, where some mad tm
lend an ufsite grae to the tot ensemble.
Another was of navy blue v1vet, ith pale blue
plush trilaml ; the mingllg o these colors
was an audanous grasping after effect but the
union resulted in * lovely piece of millinery;
no one but a French woman could have con
oelved or anything so recherche in the bonnet
line. Veils are worn in scarf shape, crossed at
the back of the head, and fastened at the waist
with a pin or bputonniore; they are shown in
black net with dots of pale yellow. bordered
deeply with embroidery of the same color.
CHILDREN'S CLOTHES.*
The simpler the little people are dressed the
prettier ttey look, and the better taste their
mammas display. The princesse dross is very
popular for lilt o girls; a new fancy is to insert
pleats and yokes in the waist of this which
takes away much of the plainness of t Ie gar
ment. The yritzblouse dorss isanother rami
fl(ation of ti' princesse. It consists of a long
p)leatod basque, with yoke, yet cut doublt
breasted, having double rows of buttons down
toe front. The ,kirt is a pleated kilt, and is
joined to a smoolhy lilting yoke that covers the
hips plainly, as it is "style" for the
child's figure to look sltnder. Homo hlrav no
yoke in front, but are cut with double Louis
Quinze vests, one of silk, the other of wool;
some Princesse robes have little vests or else
plastrone of silk or velvet let in, which being
just like "mamma's," make the little vain soul
perfectly content with itself. Another pretty
mode tor her chubbyl highness is to have the
upper part of the Princesso cut off, divided into
slender pieces that are lined with a lighter
shade of material, and made into long loops
through which a sash ribbon passes around the
figure. The nicest bourrettes, basket cloth.,
camel's hair with silk, are used for these little
folks. The trimmings consist of braids. but
tons and pipings.
BRAID IS EVERYWIIEIEE USED
on ai child's dress; plain, wide soutache is
placed in parall-l rows above self-pleatin.igs
cuffs, sleeves, collars and pockets are covered
by four or ive, rows of tils; buttons are plenti
fully distributed about the little dress.
Wraps are made in the sacique shape, the
leading novelties being the Carrick, Marquise
and Creedmoor; these are cut very long, are
half-fitting, and are made double-breasted.
Drab and grey form the frvorite colors, showing
blue and scarlet linings.
Mr. 8. G. Kreeger, on (anal stroet, has more
little gloves for the little pteople than we imagine
anyone else has in any color, in any make and
to lit the chubbiest little hand among the lot.
His selection is astonishingly varied for the
grown people as well,
AND GENTLEMEN WHO HAVE ADOPTED
the latest style in over-oars which are light, will
find there gloves for visiting that match these
exactly. At this establishment there was shown
what is called the castor beaverglove for gentle
men: an exceedingly plirble glove, which will
permit its owner to write easily with the article
in qurettion on his hand; it is recommended as
durable, and the very thing long sought for in
business circles, as on a cold day gentlemen
may boldly snap their fingers at Jack Frost antl
keep their hands out of their pockefs, if they
want to. FLORE sCE.
