Special attention is invited to the large assortment of these fabrics now offered by all the Leading Dry Goods Stores in the Country. Silks of this manufacture are made in the most approved manner, and will not Crack or ‘Change Color in Wearing, They are highly recommend- ed Dy all who have used them, for Cheapness, Beauty, and Durability. ‘American Silks in Europe, An American lady writes from Paris to Mosers.

Aftor soveral skirmishos with my dreasmaker, I, how- Levor, got my dress mado, ond put it on. For tho first six months I didn't know whothor I liked it ornot. Like all gros grains, it caught tho dust. But at tho end of, six months I should not have known how to do without it. I wore it every- whore and kept on wearing it. Until now it is 'n traveled dress” I crossod tho soa withit; woro it throughout England ; it was my ovory- doy dross and Bunday-go-to-mooting dress for six months in Paris; it protooted mo from the blasts of the Moditerrancan, and went overy- whoro I did in Italy, from Naplos to Venlco; it sailed on tho Adrlatio, was my constant com- panion during a three months of adventures among tho hoathens of Vienna, aud now that I've worn it back to Paris, and turnod it wrong sido out, hind sido before and upsido down, it is still my best gown, and tho only friend I have that I havo endowed with infallibility. In short, itis tho most remarkable eillk I evor saw, and becauso it nover woars out is why the dross- makers don't praiso it.

Astho affair was * a freo blow,” tho tomptation was irresist- iblo to many of the satatosmen of to-day. The consequonco was that the dlscussion in tho House was for the most part dull and heavy. THE TALK IN CONGRESS, Willard, of Michigan, mado a pretty good speech opposing, however, tho appointment of Commissioners as contomplated in the bill.

A further delny of wsome monthe ~ ensued, when lhe was flatly informed that the Dopartment could not exocuto tho contract with him.
