New Yorx, January 21. This ts the intermediate season when fashion apparently is at a standstill; the winter novel- es are exhausted, and it {s too soon to think of spring, especially with the thermometer be- low zero, and the “beautiful” black “snow” banking up every thoroughfare in New York city. Still this month 1s not witnout tts uses, hor its “fashions” either, both for the house- keeper and the fashionable dame of society. To the first this 1s the renovating season, and the Ume for buying remnants, odds and ends, and novelties of all sorts are now to the front golpg at “half price.” If you do not mind being somewhat behind prevalliag styles, you can now buy a coat for next winter for almost noth- ing, and beautiful dress goods that have taken the lead in design and texture for at least nalf the price they brought 8 month ago. Of course next winter they will be what ts catled ‘uid fusbloned;” but if soft to the touh, and pretty to look at, wise and thrifty housewives need not mind that. One now buys table and bed linen. and repientshes the stock of underclothes, which stow rents and tears in a surprisingly short time. Our great-great grandmothers would be aghast at the damage one season’s wear can effect In these daloty musiins and lineas, ruffies and Jaces, In the way of table linen there are many novelties; theflaest table cloths aud napkins are decorated with artistic em— broidery 1a colors aad the open patterus of drawn ‘work; the embroidery aud open-work form a doubie border around the tabie, and there is sometimes a center plece ia the colored Work. Cream, ¢:ru and buff cloths are moat in favor for luncheon and breakfast tables, For dinuer tables the snowy dainask is preferred; these come with large scenes, such as harvest- ing or game in their native haunts, framed in & medallion in the center, with a broad border finished like satin. Tn ladies’ underwear there is always some- thing hew; just at this season linen or muslin does not enter very much into the construction Of these mysterious garments; the most stylish ladies wear a little short petticoat, drawers and waist of sky blue cr pale pink flannel trimmed With Coarse white guipure and sometimes em- broidered with white sflk; then a longer petti- Coat of Diack satin lined with bright colored plush for day dress, and for eveniog or dinner & white muslin petticoat with pleated flounces edged with lace forming a balayeuse, Society trips the light fantastic during these dark and gloomy months and tries to throw a little brightness over life; balls, private and public, are therefore the tning; ainners, recep- Uons, afternoon teas, and weddings follow each other in rapid succession. It 1s almost time to hear of the “Arion” and ‘Liederkrantz” and the various other academy balls, which bring out the pretty bal masqnes costumes. For all these occasions there are many exquisite tollettes. In the artistically arranged show windows there are several beautful evening dresses and evening wraps displayed this week. ne of the dresses is especially rich and appropriate for almost any occasion that a low neck bodice fg not absolutely required. It is high in the neck with sleeves just below the elbsw. The material is black Balin and the trimming the richest kind of silk embroidery tn the most brilliant hues, the Cel Fal being leaves and flowers. ‘This embroidery runs diagonally across the front in two strips, each almost ten inches wider, is brought heart shape around the neck, and finishes the sleeves. Tne walst is a short basque. The skirt in the back long and quite plain, except a small pleated ruill2 around the’ edge of the traiue, which 1s square. Gn the bottom of thé front are three similar ruffles; the sleeves and neck are finished with a creamy lace, and at the belt 13 a bouquet of rich red and yellow roses. There is in the same window two opera wraps some- What similar in ign, belng short sacques with dolman sleeves and pointed noods; they are both made of cream-colored satin brocade, one with white ostrich feather trimming, the other With @ rich chenille fringe and pearl tas- sels. Another beautiful evening dress of hello- trope satin and brocade, with pearl trimmings, attracts the attention of all passers. Although. all these tollettes are high in the neck, a lead- ing modiste is making many square and heart- shaped waists for full evening dress. White with gold is a favorite combination for ball dresses this season. This 1s seen in the heavy white satin and gold brocades, and in the white tulle with gold beading or clothot gold worn by very young ladies. Plush ts the fayorite material for young ladies’ epera cloaks, and some very simple shapes, Such as the circular, with Inside fronts, or eisé Plain circulars, are most convenient for these. Long, undress, kid gloves, with buttons or without, and wrinkled on the arm, are used on full-dress occasions. These and tne wide lace scars, ted in huge bows under the chin, are Sarah Bernhardt caprices that are certatoly only becoming to very thin ladies, but they are, nevei theless, very universally adopted. It 1s absolutely necessary that stockings should match the dress, of whatever shade. “A specialty of hosiery is made by some firms who Show one of the most Varied and superb assort- mette of these datnty luxuries. Some have a pattern inserted in the instep and ankle of point de Alercon, Duchesse or Valenciennes jace with elaborate silk clocking. Others in silk and cobweby Lisie thread are in most deli- cate flesh pink, Salmon pink, polo blue, catseye gray. ecru, or deeper colors such as bishop's purple, crimson, red and carnation, bright gold or sea green. These are called jardiniere atock- ings, from the exquisite embroideries in sprigs and garlands which adorn them. The Storm in New York and New z Jersey. GREAT DAMAGE BY THE WIND AND SLEET. ‘The storm in and about New York Thursday night and yesterday morning was very severe. ‘Travel of all kinds was interrupted, espectally on ferries and connecting raliroads. In Central Park and Madison aud Union Squares the weight of the ice broke off heavy branches of the trees, rendering it dangerous for pedestrians to pass underneath. The telegraph wires are down in all parts of the city, blocking the street cars, and causing at times interruption to ele- vated railroad travel. The matls coming to New York cl_y yesterday were delayed to a great extent by the storm. The falling of thousands of telegraph wires throughout the city caused great inconvenience to business men and loss to the various telegraph compa- nies. In Brooklyn the damage to trees and tele- graph Poles and wires was as tas in New ‘ork. In many places the poles were broken down for blocks. Richard 8. Byrne, a lineman in the employ of the Western Union Company, was endeavoring to clear the wires on Flushing avenue. Brooklyn, when the pole broke under him and he fell, receiving fatal injuries. The municipal wires were torn in a body from their framework on the roof of the City Hall, Brook- ‘n, Dg away part of the framework and a e chimney. Ice from the wirework of the Brooklyn bridge fell frequently gore the day, causing some minor damage to ferry boats and injuring several of thetr gers whq were outside the cabins. The dispatch from Long Branch, N. J., says that the entire southern coast of New Jersey was swept all day by a terrible gale, accompanied by rain and sleet. The wind blew from fifty to sixty miles an hour. At one o'clock a squall of terrible ve- locity continued for fifteen minutes. The only damage reported 1s the breaking down of trees, which were heavily coated with ice. A brig is reported ashore above the Highlands. The tel- raph wires were torn and twisted by the gale. ere was but little abatement of the storm last night, and marine disasters are feared. A dispatch from Bergen Point says:—‘ All the wires, ten in number, running across the New- ark bay bridge, have been carried away. The bridge is one ‘and seven-elgnth miles long.” The mammoth hotel in the course of erection next to the Columbia house, at Asbury Park, was demolished by the gale at one o’clock yes- terday afternoon, the wind blowing eighty miles anhour. The loss will exceed $5,000. Almost at the same moment a partially completed cot- tage near the Grand Avenue hotel was blown to Vp occasioning a loss of $1,500. The storm done great damage. A Fall or Brack SNow.—Persons from Laurel Hill report a queer story trom that section. A gentleman from there remarked that they bad afall of black snow last week. ‘The snow fell to the depth of half an fuch, and instead of the usually white, flaky element it ‘was dark and sooty in color.

FLAGG,” AND THE OTHER STREET DOCTORS. “Can you give me lodgings to-night?” in- quired a rather rough looking customer of Sta- ton-keeper Hume, at the 5th precinct police sta- Uonhouse, the other night, “I have been meeting with hard lines lately, and haverun completely Out of the wherewith.” Mr. Hume answered: “T gueas 80. What is your name, age, occupa- “My name on such Occasions as this is Roger Wiliams; my age is thirty-one, and my occupation that or a street fakir, I was born in more.” This was made a matter of record, whereupon the station- Keeper asked him to “come on back to the lodgers’ cell” “Give me a chance to warm up & little by this stove.” sald the fakir, ‘before you put mein my little bed; I am as cold asa Plece of frozen steeL” He was aHowed to warm up. After sitting at the stove awniie he became Tather talkative, which talk Tag Star reporver encouraged. ‘‘rhis has been a terrible winter for street fakirs,” said he; “the worst tuat 1 have ever experienced. The weather has wound up our business completely, and as none of the profesh had provided for 1t—tooked out for Uhe rainy or cold day as it were—they are hay- ing # hard time. O. herwise you can det I would never have been forc:d 10 come to a police sta- on for lodging». It 1s a fascinating business, and ouce a man gets Into It he rarely ever gives up the road. Barnum, the showman, told me last summer that if a man ONCE GOT THE SMBLL OF 8AW-DUST well up his nose; he seldom ever gave up the circus business, 10 matters not how hard he tried todo so, It is the same way with street faking. Come easy, go easy. That explains the whole thing better than I could if [used a chapter of words, It’s nota hard tuing, if you bave ap erucle that the people want, to make trom ten to forty dollars in aday or a night. I've done So, on hundreds of occasions, and ex- pect lo be able to do so when the weather opens again. Of course when money comes in, In piles like that, 1t goes out just as easy. Not one fakir in a hundred ever saves acent to carry bim through the winter. There 13 no vermin 80 small but what has another though smnaller vermin on him. The fakir’s weakness is Dash dress, cards and whisky, more tribute being paid tothe latter, however, than to the Others. In other words, whisky takes on an average two-thirds of what fakirs make—and sull they are not happy.” “Have you roamed much?” asked Ta& STak reporter. : Well I should observe. I have worked almost every city from Portland, Maine, to Jackson- ville, Florida, I have worked the west all tne way to ’Frisco. The west 1s the heaven for fakirs, though in the south a larger price can be obtained for the same thing, though tho goods don’t go off so rapidly. I just came in Trem Denver now, where I have been since Ottoter last. Onthe way back I gave Cincin- nati a work for three or four days, just to ratse some pocket change. I did very well, and am sorry I did not stay there. There is no money here for @ fakir now, for the police won't let you sell in the street. Still, this place is no Worse than it is in some other cities, where they allow you to sell, it ig true, but charge you 80 much for a license pene that te fakir hasn’t over afew cents left for himself after working hardallday. I have frequently paid as high as ten dollars per day for the priv- uege of selling, though generally the permit Goesn’t Cost over two dollars per day.” THE ELECTRIC OIL STORY. “Have you ever sold in this city?” asked the Star man. “Ob yes, quite a number of times, but not since last fall. I can tell you a rather funny story about my experience here in the fall of 1 I think it was the most amusing 1 ever b I was out to the Kockville fair helping @ fellow who ran a “hit me hard” ma- chine, two strikes for five cents-and a cigar every Ume the jumper went up to one hundred. Business was pretty good, my divy being eleven doliars for the twodays I was there. As the fair was closing I, noticed that a fellow who had kept a lemonade stand had nearly a bucket full of the red looking fluidon hand. I asked him what he intended to do with it and he sala he should throw it away. Give it to me I asked, and he consented. Well I brought the stull here, and purchasing a gross of small vials at Stout's drug store, bottled it. You can belleve me or nol, but I assure you I sold it at twenty- five cents a bottle. I stood at the space corner Sth street and Pennsylvania avenue, and the stuff had a run. I announced that I was the ‘king of all pain,’ the name that I have used whenever selling a medicine, and I called the red lemonade ‘the Electric Oi.’ 1 Wasnh’t much surprised at selling the atuff, for I have a gocd lecture on pain and how to prevent it, a thing that sounds pretty weil, and always goes with a strect crowd, but I wastaken back uw little when the man Came back the next day and bought another bottle. He sald it had cured a bad attack of neuralyia which had given his wife a great dealof trouble. Ag I \ook 10 his money I could hardly keep from laughing. A single thought saved me and it has been a satisfaction to me many times, It {sthls: *We are born to do beneilis’ I did that man a beneilt, and under the circumstances there was no wrong in taking his money. The ‘Electric Ol’ had one advantage over a lar; portion of the nostrums that are sold in the Street, and that is like Homeopathic prepara- Uons, 10 wouldn't do apy harm even if it did no . That bucket of red lemonade brought 1a tome in all $:2. It brought rellet—from pain, i mee maby, even It did not cure all who red it.” “Washington Is regarded as a good city for meaeing fakirs, 1s It not?” thy Stark man put in. “It has been; but fs no good now, as no one 1s allowed to sell on the streets. Hed Syn, not Uhe man Douglass, who bought out the right to sell bis medicines here, but the orginal Red Syn, otherwise known as Snyder, told me in Balti- Inore, several days since, that Washington pro- duced better in proportion than any city he ever struck. He explained it by saying that there were 80 many colored people here. These colored folks are always imagining they are sick, and if they have money they are certain to buy medicine, The long-haired street, corner fakir knows this and directly to them ; or what catches them better sometimes, plays a tune or two on a banjo for thent They are looked upon as good producers, and con- sume quantities of medicine, At least one- half of the electric oll I was just talkt ng about was bought by the colored brothers.

Miss Carrie T.

Capt. Berry considered it the next to the worst he had ever made. There might be heavier ee but not weather more continuously I had no return of sea-sickness, and managed to enjoy myself, 1n spite of the banging about that I, in common with the other “light weights,” (105 Pounds.) received. Excursions of the most unpremeditated Kind across the cabin floor were not infrequent, and once while dressing 1m my room I was thrown at full length into my berth, and just as suddenly tossed out again across the room on to the lounge. A few such experiences are really valuable at sea; they afford both variety to life and topics of Conversation. Our last days were our Dustest. Birtbday beoks and autograph albums were circulating in every direction. Onr names will surely De read in every quarter of the globe, even if we do not merit such distinction. Most people, I think, regret the breaking up of the quiet, irresponsible Ife one leads on board a steamer, at least our party did, and [ heard similar expressions of feellag amons the very experienced travelers. We made the outer light-ship about 3 a. m., and I think I can claim the distinction of being the only passenger who saw it. Our captatn, fortunately for us, was 8 man of appreciative ability, and as the prospect was for fair Weather, he delayed the steamer during the night in order to give us opportunity to enjay fuily the approach to this wonderfuily lovely country. At about halt-past five o'clock the gong sounded and it was not long before we Were all out in our shore clothes, {" ocstugy at the scene that was opening before uz. 1 wish I could give you an adequate description of its beauty. I can hardly say grandeur, for althouvh Fuslyama ts more than 12,600 feet in hetznt ana *0 miles distant, on account of the clearness of the atmosphere it seemed to be close to the shore. Its snowy summit contrasted with the follage of the trees that cover the near hilis gave it almost an unnatural appearance. Gradually we were able to take in complete picturesqueness of the indented shores, woo1ed down to the water edge, except where a thin Ulmy cloud of smoke rose t6 tell of Lue early breakfast of a village of Mshing people, as a foreground, and the wondertul snowy cone found its righttul place in our admiration. ‘Then every one became intent upon seeing it touched by the first rays of the yet unrisen sun. Already the sky above us wa3 reddening, and above the mountain lay part of a belt of the loveliest pale blue. Very soon the snows of Fuslyama took on a misty pale blue tint, walch changed to a rosy hue as the sun rose ‘higher and the crimeon light spread and deepened. A few seconds later tne mountain was glowing first pink and then golden in the morning light. The dark olive green of the follage was broken up into a hundred varying lights and shades. 1 could only stand and wish for you ail to en- joy it with me. We moved siowly up the beau- Uful bay of Yeddo, cast anchor at nalf-past Seven, and then our first experience of foreign life began. Ali around us lay theships of other nations, and the water was alive with nattve boats, manned by the half-clad Japaness. Tne larger ones were paddled by ten men, all stand- ing, and the brown skins seemed in perfect harmony With everything else. After a hasty breakfast we prepared Lo go ashore, and I must confess to a litte sinking of heart at the pros- pect of leaving our temporary home, which, after all, Was 4 part of America. Mr. Knox aud Mr. Ballagh met us at the sieamer, and all our missionary friends met us with such a hearty and Kindly welcome that my dread Of strangers was dissipated at once, and soon we were on our way to our new home without a care for either our baggage or our- selves. Mrs, Hepburn was waiting to invite us to dinner. At an early hour we avatled our- selves of the opportunity of a guod night's sleep or terra-firma, and were happily oblivious Ul some time past the usual breakfast hour. At len o'clock we were welcomed In our visit to the mission school. We also visited the industrial exhibition, returning just in time for dinner and to see Miss Olmsted back to the City of Peking. We had a delightful row tn a native oat Lo the steamer. THE BOSS IDOI OF JAPAN. According to an arrangement made while at the school the next day was fixed upon as a good time for visiting the greatest idol in Japan,—Dai Butz, at Ka-ma-ku-ri. Tne place is 42miles distant and the journey mustbe made in jirt-riki-sha. Our party grew io size so that when. we were ready to start we formed a cavalcade of eighteen riki stax, You may imagine the sensation we made along the streets of the city. We left Mr. Knox’s gate at about elght o'clock inthe morning. To our t it was nol a bright day, but we provided ourselves with um- brellas and blankets as a protection from ratn, and were glad that we did later in the day. Our way led us first through the native town, and then across a picturesyuely arched bridge out into the open country. Then, for the first time, I realized that it was the kind of country Thad read about. Sunrise on Fus! could not bo otherwise than beautiful, but I had rather placed the descriptions of the general a ance of ong to the credit of a partial agi mation. The ride to Ka-ma-Kura, however, was one unbroken succession of beautiful pic- tures. The great fields of rice, weighed down with mature grain, covered every Cine of the numerous little valleys, and the hills of such curious formation that we were constantly ex- claiming in wonder at them, were covered with the most luxuriant growth.

About half-way to Ka-ma-Kura we arrived ata mountatin’s base, and the whole party got out towalk up. On the summit, which we reached ees forty minutes, we found ourselves on U “PLAINS OF HEAVEN.” This is a place where numbers of natives come out almost every day simply to see tne views irom elther side of the hill ‘Our coolies Were as excited as the most enthustastic visi- tor, and this is saying a good deal.

For two hours more we wound through a suc- cession o! vi most of them occu- pied by native villagers, and at last found our- zelves at a tea-house, where we left Mr. Kaox With the lunch baskets.
