L+ u genre tcsed to. dress will have a certain inter- est at therresent time. Pe p haps she was the only fashionable woman who made it a N: r rule can �ve to c 1 for her n .er halt -dresser until. every other detail of her toilet had been at- tended to and perfected. This is a Unique idea, but a very clever one. , ; In the first place imagine that Sa Ara; jeste _ is about- to put on an evening dress: She :decides upon pink and, -white. The Aexnancl is signified to certain satellites above stake, by an obe- dient messeni :ec. A few mintfes b ' _ store the ° blonde .nd august=Espagnole enters her dr-essing'room, she is proceeded by her chief lady in wating, who touches a : bell corn-, municating with the room Overhead. In-: stantly, and if by magic, a trap; door in the ceiling opens, and down fld .ts an enchant --- g: laytgure of the Empress as she will be in about twenty -`ere minutes -by the clock —perhaps a little Tess—for there is no other- fashionable woman who so mathematically allots the One given to her, toilet, or who dresses so expeditiously. Here is the dress of pink gauze, the shawls of white filmy lace I thrown over its low corsage. The manikin's hands even hold • the h• ndker- chief of costlypoint, and thee,. e,li F � cats plumed eventail, which are to gtacethe royal fingers—or, rather, which the, royal fingers are to grace:-- First, her Majesty is attune& in pearly silk hose and pink satin shoes ; then the dress, next the ornaments, and., now for the coifing of that auburn chevelure 1 In the tip -toes the dexterous 1 coiffure. Five minutes—.ten, Presto! it is done, even to the pink amelias which'. match the dress and diamonded band of black velvet around her elegant throat; and= her Majesty steps out into the world—to the court=armed to conquer and subdue the hearts of rnen;and make women commit sundry little sins of envy, Think' of it, women of the period, and contrast it with your aw11 three hours' getting tip for a hop or reception. •s` Strange Spirit Mystery. Another - m f these inexplicable 'steries, which so far have defied the ingenuity of man tb solve, has justcome to light' in the former county seat of Crawford Fredonia. For about ten year past, a` lady, . residing in the :place, mentioned hat had foi a com- panion: a spirit child dive or six years old, which attends her wherever he goes, and has been seen by nearly every - resident of Fredonia at one ` time or another. It has become a common expression when the little farm, is seen following the one wh m she seems destined to guad through h. e, ' that, " There goes B.'s little girl." T e` lady who is constantly followed by this little phantom has become accustomed to its: presence, and exhibits no • alarm or un- easiness, when, it is observed near. - Fre- quent attempts have been made to ca re the mysterious little visitor, but w o the Lands seemed to be about coming -.n- t of with the form, it would suddenly melt away and become invisible. Only once has it been seen in any other place than following the lady alluded .to,, and that was a short time after the close of the war. A gentleman had gust returned home from the army, and with his wife and. child were occupy'. g a - room in the house 'of the haunted lad. They had retired and lighted a lamp, and he was in conversation: with his wife When he heard the pit -a pat of a child's feet on the floor near the be. Looking in the direction of theound, be observed a little ,girl walking itkward the stairway. Naturally supposing that it was his own child that had got of bed some way, he sprang up and followed th form clown stairs, and At the same time calling it to re- turn. - , :.. His wife, noticing his movement; `asked him what he was doing He replied that their child was out of bed and going down stairs, and he was trying to catch it and bring it back. The wife responded ;that the child was still in bed, which the husband foundttrue on returning to bed. Ile told his wife that he certainly saw a child going down the steps, She replied that it must have been B.'s little girl, and then told him the cucumstances concerning the little visi- tor. " A bright Tight ` was burning in the room at the time, and has both husband* and wife were wide awake and talking `hen the child made its appearance, there can be no doubt but that the gentleman saw the apparition—at least, he is willing to make a deposition tti that effect. A Strange Discovery. A. curious story comes across the plains, which, if true, is calculated to upset some of the favorite theories of the geologists.' Professor Agassiz declares that the New,. World is incor arabbly older than` the Old World ; and Professor Winchell adds that, with the exception of ; part of Canada, the Western is the oldest part of the Continent so old, in fact, that it is nearly worn out, and hence is reduced to a desert. Now, what will the learned professors say to this little scrap of scientific fiction from the :Los ` Angelos News ? 'It says that on the great Yuma -desert, forty miles north of S$nt Barnandmno, and thirty miles- west of Los Palmos, was formerly a shallow salt lake, which has recently disappeared, revealing the wreck of a large vessel imbedded in the, sand. There canbe no mistake about it. Neaely one third of the forward part of the ship or barque islplainly visible. The stump :of the bowsprit remains, and portions of the timber are perfect. No inscriptions, log- book, valise, or other article has been found• by which the strange craft .can be identified and the. queation is, how Lame she 1,there 1 It is forty miles -from the nearest 'road, aid,. so, far as known, nobody but Indians have over passed that Way._ ey never could have built a s i ip could not have fl lake. n It is ha di body. wo ld : tte "plains in such editor th nks : bq know. n th 1 Under Hearne, he a what h9 ad 1 had been at .
