THE FATIGUES OF A FOREIGN SYMPATRIZER. {From the Claczow Herald, Feb. 23. i} Saturday being the apniyersar): of the birthday of the great Ametican patriot, and that day having been chosen for the inauguration of Mr, Jeff. Davis 4s President of the Confederate States, a number of gentlemen con- nected with the South celebrated the occasion by # din- ner at Campbel. s Globe Hotel, Georgo square. The chair was taken by Mr. James Smith, Mr. McLeish acting as croup’. Both of these genthmen made excellent and instructive speeches on the great contest now going on in America, aud expressive of their confidence that the Confederate independence will be estublished, and of the genera! well-being of America, both North and South, being thereby improved, ‘couwmercially and otherwise. The meeting was aleo addressed at considerable length by Mr. J. D. Dougal and Mr. John MecAcum, the latter stating that he had only refrained from taking & more active share in the discussion of the American qusetion through his ener- pies and eympaihics being for the present fully absorbed by Italy and Hungary, where important movements might shortly be aoticipated, The usual toasts were drunk with enthusiasin, and in particular that of our be- loved Queen, with the conduct of whose governinent to. wards the South the most perfect satisfaction was re- peatediy dxpressed. ‘From the Noréh British Daily Mail, Feb. 25.) Geucrally speaking, however, we raay say that, how- ever much we may find fault with the North, wo have giver no sort of oneusanetion go the cause of the secessiog- late. And, this being the cave, wo feel that Sestrs, | McAdam and Dougall, in atiendiag aud speaking at the meeting held on Saturday, at the Globe Hotel, te some extent compromised the city, by giving a sanction, whih has all the appear- auce of complete approval to the proceedings of Mr. Jef- ferson Davis and the cause in which he bus embarked. Tn Ging; the meeting will explain itself. No person knowing anythiag of our city will make such a mistake ag to believe that Messrs. Dougall and McAdam ate leaders of public opinion, or that any class of our citizens care anything as to what these geutlemen may think or say. But, outside of the city, the namws of Messrs. Dovgail aud McAdam, cepecially wh the style of Mr. McAdam’s re- markeare taken into unt, may be regarded as of some weight exd importance.

Mr. McAdam ,howaver, when he stated at such @ moe! “that he had y frained from taking a move active share in tho discussion of the American qnestion, through his energios and sympathies being for the present fully absorbed by Italy and Hungary.’ gives the pubii¢ to understand that his “ i sympathies” are held tn great account by his fellow citizens, The vanity which prompted this dis- play of personal importance is harmless enough in itself, and ifexhidited lees publicly would have no evil conse- quence beyond the aunoyanice it might cause to those who are compelled to witness it.

He knows that the counsellor aud mon of his stamp would at ones look out for an epportunity of putting the Count de Chambord or the Count de Paris on the throne, and would not scruple to receive English aid for the purpose, But although he knows all tlis, the difl- cuities which this feeling creates for him must often (emp! him to go with the stream; and England is at loast bound to recognize alike the honesty and sagacity of his conduct.

ACTION OF THE UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT FOR IPS SUPPRESSIC ‘EFFECT OF THE REBELLION ON oun BProKTs. In the House of Commons, on the 28th of Febroary, Mr. Wy p asked the First Lord of the Treasury whether any communication had been made to the government of the United States upon the withdrawal of the American squadron from the coast of Africa; whether any attempt was made by tho British government to induce the Pre- sident of the United States to prevent the uso of the United States flag by foreign slaverson thé West Coast of Africa: and whether any request had been made to the President of tho United States to permit Pritish ships of war engaged in the suppression of the slave trade to as- certain (during the absence of the United States squad- yon) the nationality of ships which might hoist the flag of the Vnited States. Lord PaLumrsfon—A representation has been made to the United States government that the number of guns stipulated by treaty to be employed by them on the coast of Afriea for the suppression of slavery are not now on thatstation. The answer given was that the necessities of wa: and of the blockade which they were establishing on the Southern coast obliged them to withdraw from foreign stations part of their crnisers which had beea thereemployed. Undoubtedly, this answer, though one cannot aliogether contest it, 13 no! a very satisfactory one, Ddecause it only amounts to thi at the United States fail in executsng the engagement of a treaty relating to a subject ia which Englishmen take great interest, because the eruisers which ought to uaployed were employed in @etublishing a blockade which in ieif was tery injurious to the interests and com- merce of this country. (Hear, hear.) But 1 believe 1 am_ warrantel in saying that the President of the United States is very anxious to co-operate with Great Britain for the suppression of the slave trade. (Hear, hear.) In what particular way that may be done it is not at present for moto gay, but Iam satistled there is an earnest desire on the part of that people to employ all the means they have at their disposal to put down the slave trade; and in proof of that I may mention, what in- deed I stated cn a former evening, that an American citizen who was conyi of acts in furtherance of slavery now lies under sentence of death in New Yor Mr. Wyip reminded the noble lord that he ha given any caswer to the last braach of his question. At present the whole of the siave trade on the coast of Africa was carried on under the United States flag. Lord Patwenrsrox.—My honorable friend must be aware that no permission given merely by the President of the Uuited States can be effectual. Such a right of search as he contemplates can only be exorcised under a treaty sanc- fioned by the Senate. coed Fashions for March. [From Le hg The mode of decreasing the width of the skirts of dresses at the waist is more and more adopted; of courso the bottom of the sirt must be very full, that is an In. disputable fact; an ample training skirt most decidedly gives grace to the G@gure; at same time it is quite in- admissible in the streets, only allowable for indoors or carriago wear. Even tarlatan and tullo dresses are made with trains. Every breadth iz gored; all silk dresses are submitted to this rule. Visiting dresses aro no longer made with plain skirts. The material may be more or Jess boautitul; butthat which constitutes the true ele- ganee of a robe is the trimming. There is @ great va- riety. We will describe two or three different styles. Velvet is no longer so frequently placed in wide bands at the edge of dresses, but rather in riches, put on in grecques or in rings. Trimthing of the same material as tho drees is also worn. Narrow plates flounces, set ou in threos; bouitlonnes botween, or rows of terry velvet. There is also an elegant pascementerie of chenille; several rows of iton tho skirt, ‘This ia always the samo color as the dress. ©., one dress of black gros de Suede we notice an iusertion of black guipureover vielet ribbon, Another robe, sil- ver drab moire antique, with some of the same guipure over white taffetas. The most costly material seems not to be a la mode, unless trimmed; we may, perhaps, ex- t 1 sire antique and velyet—yet those are frequently Grnamenried. 4 High bodies are sometimes riade open, but itis the excoption; genersliy with a point; when the material is rich, and for full dress or evening visite. One ary sim- ple and pretty trimming we saw on a rose colored moire aniique—rows of chenilie fringe, finished off with buttons at the bettom; the sleeves nade with revers, and tho body trimmed; cuts to match. Another oranment was violet moire antique, like the dress; a narrow baud, subie plaited. At the bead a very light passement large buttons, made of moire, down the sleeves, which was made with revers. The bottom of the skirt had five ruws of very barrow plaited bands put on in garlands. For ball dresscg, the point d’Espague, is, perhaps, the most elegant ornament. .A complete dress may be ob- tuined of it—skirt, body and slesves. Now that ball dresses are so excessively fairy-like, it is a graat ditll- culty to arrange trimmings upon them with good taste, elthor in tulle, gauze, or, above ail, in lace; or each seems heavy when placed upon such light ‘vaporoas foundations. Bouiliones of tulle aud ruches of crape or tarlatan compose the dress, and flowers are placed in the middle of tufts of tulle, Many ball dressos are made with tunics or overskirts, but others are made entirel: of Voulllonnes of tulie. A rouleau of double tulle, quilied, trims the first two rows, and above this a drapery of tulle, or lace, or double plisse bands, A second skirt, also of tulle, falls over this; it is double, and relieved by Donquets of flowers, or bows. ‘The following dresses we recommend to the notice of our readers:— Fora young lady arobe of white tarlatan, trimmed round the bosom, with three mauve taitetas flounce, each edged witha c ‘These flounces are abcut four inches wide, and are separated by bouilion- nes Of tarjatau, rather wider, and covering the top of cach flounce. A second skirt, double, falls over, reaching the highest founce: and, on cach side, it has largo bunches of mauve ribbon, just catching itup. The body is of the same colored taffetas, made low, and with a ermal pelorine nearly high, entirely composed of ribbon and bouillonnes. A fall bouillonne of tarlatan is placed all around to fluish it off, The sleeves are wide and half jong, in tarlatan, bordered with a chicoree of taffetas, and an end of ribbon at the seam. For the coiffure, a — of tufts of Parma violets, mixed with ends of blond. ‘A dress of 80a green taffetar, covered with a tulie, terminated at the bottom by eight narrow bouil- jonnes.

The body is low, draped, aud closed infront with @ bouquet of daisies. Slee formed by two bouillonnes. The head of daisies, and long grass at tho back.

A spray of large roses, with black velvet leaves, raises this uj skirt. Low body trimmed with @ iiloune and rile, with narrow black velvet upon them; three large roses, with velvet foliage, one on each shoulder, and one in front of the body, 80 placed that the leaves join the tlow- ers on theekirt, The bair is dressed in bows, falling over the neck. Therose is placed amongst these at the bock, and another at the side, near the front. A brown and black dress, of a plush-like material ; all the triinmings are of black guipure, placed flat over a wide, thick, groen ribbon.
