Georgia, which, when furnished to manufacturers at
that price,;.and tley; if dispxised, eh4re the 75 per
centpvould make! the clothing to tlrg troops' very

Presuming that the Sc itliern ladies feul.some curi -osity

fjr from our Yanke3 filci the ! annexel chapter on
. FOR THE PB03&ENAD2.
The Frencn taut au
basquet which means, the
'English paletot, which uiean lbx American "sack,1
is decidedly the popular garmettt.; It- i longer ihan
the sack of las sfei.n, awl, with its shapely shoulder
. and moderate sleeres, is a very comfortable garment.
It is made in the richest as well as in common materi
als. Composed of velvet., or the superb ?Matalassie;"
and barathea silk, it is usually trimmed richly with
gHipure lace, and lace and jet ornaments. In black
cloth it is simply bound and finished with crochcte
trimmings,-whUe upon heavy blacker colored plush,
a binding of the same color, and large fiat steel, gilt,
or "mirror" Uuttonsglass set in a rihi" of metal.)
upon collar, cuffs, and px:ketst constitute, all the
ornament that is deemed necessary.,.
L The late and more exclusive styles of clocks Are of
y the talma or mantle shape, or variations from the cir
cular. ; One of the finest of these styles is a black
velvet talma, bordered witlPa deep fl wince of black
lace,- and ornamented wltbiwqueU rf lace flowers set. .
in medallions f lacel i
Another is a Sptnish style of circular, laid 'in
-broilrkplaits on the right shoulder, full ove r the client,
and terminating in a scarf, which is thrown over the
left shoulder. I It is very stylish and perfectly
unique. -: j . ,-i' ' ; . "
The new materials for, cloaks consist of a soft and
thickly plied fabric, so exquisitew in appearance that
it has received tie name of wo-Hen velvet. Jt must
not be confounded with plush, from which it differs
as widely as an Euglisli lawn from a Massachusetts
. hay field. , " .. ..
There is also a new style of plush, crossed with
narrow stripes of velvet in different color, which gives
it the apjwaranco of chmgeable fabric Gray and
light, shades in drab and violet anj considered vety.
distingue in plush w.x den velvet, and leaver cloth,
and are so greatly in demand that a few leading houses
have .obtained nearly a monopoly of this class of
goods in' these colors. . '
Furs are coveted as ever, and, like every other de
scription of g.tods, has advanced in price from 29 to
25 per cent. Mink holds its ground n the fashiona- -
ie fur, the darker tlie more I suable aud the more
cosily ami is, certaiulyrndlt'd by no other in its
beautifudurability and comparative moderation in
price. . .X i.-'-iv. i ' - ' , - ,
For the large cape there is less demand this season
than for tne imperial Russia cloak, magnificent in i's
appearance, but ! costing from two , to five hundred
dodarsund, almost useless in our clhnate, which rare
ly gives us more than a week of sufficiently cold,
weather for wearing such a garment. To the large
cipethere is the same objection, that it fills the place
of neither cloak nor shawl, yet it is very expensive
,aitl easily got but of -tinier, while a trifling neglect
t keep it in a cool place, or put it away carefully
when summer approaches, will ruin it forever.
The most "convenient style in fur for ordinary wear
,i this half cape ; it is han-isomer and a better proteo
j ion to the shoulders and chest than the victorine, and
looks well with cloak or shawl. Fur collar we consid
er almost worse than nothing and they impart warmih
to the throat. at th expense of the chest, which is
left so much more liable to cold. 'It is almost im
possilfte to give an idea of costtso much depeuds up
tu the color of . the fur.. . A very h:iudome half capo
can b purchased for fifty dollars, a very nice set of
half cape and muff for seventy-five. Almost the low
est price for a half cape, in genuine mink, would'
probabjy be forty dollars. . . , j
Muffs are small as eyer in fact there is 110 change
in the shape of fur garments, except in ermine f-:
evening wear. Many ladies, to whoni money is no
' ohject, wear muffs without collar, cape or victorine.
It is a pretty c.iprice of fashion ; to wear tiny ermine
muffs with bla-rk velvet cloaks, and a new style of
muff, niaduin black plusti, striped with redp with the
gray plush a d beavur cloaks.
The latest thin in opera cloaks is the erndne talma
shaped in quilte7 silks at the.ijeck, like a htKxl, 'and
Hushed with rich sdk tassels. . ' ,
8TTLKS IN DRESS GOODS. '
Lady readers, especially those in the interior dis
tricts, may be interestetl u know -what art and taste
could cull from the mosti famous sources for the grat
ification of their worshippers on this occasion. The
dress goHls department in-dudes every imaginable
tyle, color and fabric; heavy raps and Ottoman
cloths in plain colors for street 'vear ; the always
h inds uie French and Irish poplin, in plaid and plain
colors; French merinos of every shade; French prints"
of beautiful quality and design f r morning wear, and
in infinite variety of medium and mixed fabrics, to
which a fresh name gives noveby with every chang
ing season. - . . -
v It is in the silk depar ment, however, where one is
sure oCmcet ing with the costliest attention that the
rarest novelties are to be looked for. Observe that
tinted brocade, from which spring velvet tints, differ
ent in size and shading, yet forming clusters out of
which the eye gradually recognizjs an intentional and
most chafmiirg design ; that robe is rated at 250,
and i already sold, 'l'h.re are others as costly and
as beautiful; but none precisely like th at. Dress pat
terns of such value are never made two alike.-
There is another style whfch we admire still more,
and which is less expensive ; this is rich taffetas in
single colors, lavender, purple, green, and the new
cuir color, embroidered with syhit silk, in a pattern
!nr skirt, botly and sleeves, to imitate exactly rich
guipure lace. A wide sash, embroidered to match,
accompanies the skirt, the ends of which are fringed
with si'lk the color of the dress. These robes are only
$ 1 50 each. - r
There are other very beautiful robes, the skirts bor
dered with a Greek vine pattern', the moat novel of
which is the robe "Hortense." Theie are also impos
ing moh antiques, some in plain black or mode as
high as eight dollars per yard, and considered' most
truly elegant and distingue than any fanciful combi
nation. 1;. .
A part from these again are arranged the entire fam
ily of plain and colored silks.iu all the new and choice
shades of color, such as lavender, mauve, Magnets, J
Auzline and Mexican bHie, Vcsuve and others, which
h:.ve raised single colored silks to fashionable pre-eminence.
There is nothing prettier, or capable of be
ing rendered more effective for young ladies' evening
wear, while the addition of a simple la e or embroid
ered muslin overdress, (the latter just now" the must
fashionable,) or a differeut arrangement of trimming,
will sufficiently vary the" toilette for many separate
occasions. , . - . ' w . . . . -. ' . ' '
; KNITTED WOOLEN GOODS. 1 , Z'
Beautiful articles of this description are now pro
dniped in such infinite variety for ladies' and chil
dren wear as to deserve more than this passing notice.-
For children the snug little hoods ami caps are
fast superseding other styles. Then there are chinks
and sacks, and jackets innumerable j Garibaldi shirts
in new and' bright shades of wool, faced with black,
and with naimw black collar and caffs. There are
also Garibaldi vests, finished without sleeves, and an
swering the same purpose aV the 6on tag, but so ranch
newer and more styludi as to bm rapidly superseding
them. ' Tbe.Rinw-wcod" English woolen gloves a id
mitts are just now t be rae for ladies andjihildrcn, and
are warm, handsome and durable. The beit we haw
ever5en were from the English hosiery and glove
importing house of C. Taylor, iu Broadway. It would
do any mother's heart good to see here the beautiful
knitted gloves and raitts for little fdks, of all sorts
and sizesc There 'are almost hnndreds of different
kinds of ladies' gloves, and a new style of handsome
shopping mitu;" there are brown mitts for boyst skat
ing and school weat erimson mitts for little girls,
and; small white affairs' for infants. ' A Tery stylih
white cassimere glove is superseding the-Ring-woodr
for gent leraen, and looks exceedingly well with the
dark beaver of a handsome busi ness coat. - ;

SJtcrtly a fter the army got in motion,, yesterday
morniag, cannonading was heard some, four mi'es in
tmr advance No one seemed to understand it, as ye
had no force in the direction of the sound. Parties
were sent ahead to ascertain what it meant, when it
was asceitained that a body of the enemy liad cross
ei the Rappahannock as a ncrinoieriiig party, and
while marching down towards Falmouth, the rebels
opened on them, causing some considerable consterna
tion in their ranks. About a dozen rounds were fired
before it was ascertained that they, were firing." on
our own troops.1' -j'--.- - ' .'. '.'l
r The fat f the rebels firing' on their own troops
proved to us that they had onV or ; m re batteries
planted on the opposite shore, for the purpose of
sweeping tiie fjad as we advanced. Generals Sumner,
and Couch soon came to a c inclusion that these bat
teries in ut l)e at once silenced, so that we might have

comjdetely covered by the natural p-sitioiiof the hill.
At about half past three the first gun was sighted and
brought to beir njKJ i ;the enemy, which at ncc
brought ori a rejoinder. The first shot from the rebels
bursted directly over our battery.
i In its leading editorial the Inquirer says : , .
Great credit is given to Burnside for his masterly
evacuation of Warrenton, and removal of his tnops
southward and eastward on the high road lo Rich
mond, strongly occupying. Fredeiicksimrg as a point
of the new base. . j
Nothing that Can be now' seen or foreseen seems
able t interfere with a continued advance, which we
hope from ; day to day to report. Tlie rebel tactics
seem to have been rivalled bv our own movements;
for it is asserted that, while the advauce of our army
is nearer Richmond than the main botly -of lee's troops,
Seigel is nearer to Burnside than Jackson is to Lee.
It such ii the cae., why cannot the Union General
fall upon Lee at once, before Jackson coiild join-him,
and crush him without numbers ?
But the details of our present moverri nts are un
known, and it would be but speculation to export
certain actions and certain results of our troops at this
juncture; only let them go and action will speedily
come to meet them. ' I- ; ' ,
' Meanwhile; the movement isstill forward ; the warm
rains donot impede our advance, while they make the
Potomac impassable to Jackson, or rendT his threats
entirely impotent.- Thej headquarters of Burnside are
constantly advancing, and the army corps are rendez
