FASHIONS FOR FEBRUARY. [From Le Follet] - The extreme severity of the winter has caused fur to be much in — and there is in this material asia all other things, ® fash- ion. This season Astracan is most vogue We find far used, not only as a trimming for mantles, but also for dreases. Two or three bands, about a quarter of a yardin width, laced upon & veivet skirt, produce a good ef- fect. Long jetots of cloth or velvet, are trimmed with martin or American, in wide bands. Large ines of velvet cloth—blue or white—edged with Astracan, are very dis- tingues. The little velvet shawl, trimmed with wide lace, is reserved for visits of ceremony, Frem eur Richmond Correspondent Legislation forthe Fredericksburg and Potomac Railroad, and for the Accotinck and Mount Ver- non Turnpike.— Sensation Dispatches from Washingt ‘The temper and purpose of the Union majority in the Virginia Convention, §c.

If this should turn out to be 80, they will have to send terrible ones to alarm the present Convention, who do not intend to act without proper deliberation. It isa waste oftime to think the Convention of Virginia are going to be ‘‘ sensated out of the Union”? on force bills, by telegraph. They will wait for the slow mail, = ow, to confirm before they act. The diffi- culty about joining a Southern Confederation would be greatly removed if we could be certain by doing so, that parties connecting themselves with It would be relieved from the curse of Adam’s sin.

What we want is kindness, conciliation, respect for the opinions of othe: ind a mutual forbearance, and wisdom (which we are told by the royal preacher) is better than weapons of war. With this, we may hope to band down to posterity the blessings of a free Government, that bas conferred so many comforts to the people of the Union. Let, there- fore, the Peace Congress, as I have no doubt they will, act wisely and prudently, and submit to Congress the result of their deliberations; and let Congress promptly act on them and submit them to the votes of the States. If some do not con- sider this necessary. let them remember that we are not only anxious to remain as brothers, but de- sire to give to those who contend they are now not of us, an opportunity to retrace their steps, and return once more to the Union and the Con- a and then what a jubilee we malt ve. Fs The material called droguet is in great re- quest for home dress this winter, and itis made now in such rich and elegant designs, that it may rank next to velvet. Velvet of various colors are worn. For evening dress there are many light and bexatiful fabrics. Tulle is more in vogue than tariatane, though that is still fashionable for young girls. There are many dresses of gauze, checked with colors or embroidered with gold or silver; other of striped gauze; and some of grenadine, worked with velvet. White grenadine, with a pattern in rose color (rose de roi), or with natural flowers dotted over it, and silk tulle embroidered with chenille, make exceedingly pretty and tasteful ball dresses. Very elegant ball dresses are made of satin, either of rose de roi, green, yellow, azure, or lilac. Satin is also worn for Visiting dress, in brown, with a black pattern, or of violet and Havin? superior advantages, with practical knowledge, we are prepared to'mtroduce Water promptiy, and at prices that cannot fail to satisfy, 2 it no %-dtMar1_bot.9th and luth at Arr Now prepared to execute any orders with 2 favored ip the GAS STEAM FITTING {LF Store on 9th streot, » ow doors north of Pa, Ue, where nay he fornd a compete assortment CHANDELIERS and other GAs, STEAM WwW GAS FIXTURES, E Have in store, and are dsi_y receiving, @AS ix.
