It is held by the teachers tiat the strain upon the mind of teachers and pupils is altogether too great for heaith ov success Mn learning. ‘The evil is ES it is incre.siug, and ought to be dimin:sned. ne range of siudy is too wide, The whole business of State education is overdone, Children are taught too many studies in school.” This topic deserves further comment, So.ue of tue seligious: are awakening to the matter of the nuwber of unpostors soliciting funds for various reiigivas purposes. One of thein has the foliowing:—" We spe frequently receiving intouiaence of those who are swindled by plausibie strangers, who have had some story or credentials to deceive tne unsuspecting and rejieve them of money that might be appropriated to some good object. Some- Unies the fault is that of the iudorsers, who have iven their names and recommendations without suf- cient knowledge of the character of those whom they have commended, In this aye of swindiing and of what are called confidence men, those on whom the public rely cannot be too cautious ayainst lend- ing their names to help impostors carry on their ne- farious senemes.”” A religious paper observes that the legislative knife is not sharp enough and cannot cut deep enough to cut out tue caucer of indeceut and Li literature and pictures, and adds: “rome the papers tha: profess a rd for the decencies of iue pander to te lusts and depraved appetites of the public.

Bright, pleasant weather has not been vouchsafed ‘us as yet, that is, such weather as we generally ex- pect to be favored with at this particular time of the year. The thought suggested itself that April is weeping a little too much this season to suit our fas- tidious~ aste or meet with the slightest recognition of our approbation, If that capricious month must shower her glorious tears upon us why encroach upon the rights of her sister May? We cannot afford to smtle, at least in the fashionable acceptation of the word, because she weeps, and if this abominable order of affairs continues much longer New Yorkers will probably find themselves metamorphosed into so many Niobes; for if weeping becomes fashionable what is there left us but to follow suit, and imitate the montis, as we now imitate almost everything else,from a bird toan artist, One half day of sunsiine, sandwiched in between six and a half sombre, heavy-clouded, rainy ones, is not exactly what we stand in n-ed of or what we anticipated for the first half of May, netther is it enjoyable or in season, What, in the name of inercy and common sense, is to become of all our spring styles and fineries if we are to have no spring? Are we to jump at once from heavy cloaks and furs to gossamer paietots without the benefit of a gradual dovetailing of the styles with the seasons? If that ig the programme we most earnestly protest. We will no longer suffer ourselves to #e allured into the expectancy of fine weather by mere shadows. An occasional sunbeam struggling through the clouds in the West fails to impart that buoyancy to either heart or foot that would certaimiy be infused into both by three or four entire days of uninterrupted sunshine. Every cloud, it is said, has a silver iining, and why not these clouds that now mar our ha»piness give place to as many bright and pleasaut days as ever before were enjoyed since the progenitors of our race were so unceremoniously frisked out of Eden? It is but fair to presume that such days must return again, and until they do we mast patiently wait. Itis acknowledged that bonnets are smatier this season than ever before, but thetr trimmings have grown considerably; and, as was to be expected, the mantilla is fast becom{ag the rage, especially for evening wear. The turquoise blue blonde ts the latest noveity in the way of color tn bonnet mate- rials, and edving to match are embroidered by hand, and are consiicred exyuisite when used in connec- tion with mother-oi-pear! ornauwents, For the benefit o1 such of our fair readers as at present may be conieimplating macrimony we will jusi whisper in their ears that sunplicity of style, rather than elaborate or profuse oi n imentation, 1s now the object aimed at, and that “brides’ ” dresses: are seldom made en ponies. Orange biossoms now compose the principal trimmings on a br dal toilet. ‘They are eraployed as friuges on the sash aud 8.ceves, and are also used in-tead of buttons. Should the skirt be arransed en puniers then lace should be used, the iower part of the skirt being trimmed with lace and the band that cuts tae skirt at the back edged with the sane macerial, The sash should in all such cases be tied at the side with a coquilie of luee. Marie Antoinette fichus are cut in twenty dii- ferent forms. Tne ‘“OCountess” fichu (one of the varieties) is suitabie to ve y youthful figures; it is worn low in tie shoulders aid has the effect of a searf with longround ends, which ends usually ter- minate with @ ruchy; at the buck it is ornamented with a bow of wid» ribbon, the streamers to which fali lower than the waist. From tue great variety in manties this spring we select the following unique specimens Kuown a3 a “Watteau,” whieu is called tie “prettiest” by the knowing Cues; but of that we will say notaing, It is simular to the “iedingote” or “Polonaise,” without side pieces, and consequently without any sleeves, except those of the dress worn with it, The ‘Wat teuu” has @ sash which forms braces, ard is tied at the back with large bows; it is also looped up at the sides by the aid of large bows. The following is a cescription of some of the latest toliets seen upon the avenue:— Tne first is a black and white striped satin petti- coat, a poult de soie skirt of tea color, vandyked at the edge and bordered with black velvet, the skirt fastened the entire length of the froat with black velvet buttons; plain high body with fan-shaped sash, edged with vandykes and boundewith black velvet; over the shouiders a garment called the Monsignor, cut square at the back and very much like a small stoie in form; it was trimmed in this insiance with ruches of tea colored silk and was lined with black velvet; in front it was fastened with a biack velvet bow. The bonnet was made of black Spanish blonde, square lappets of which fell over the chignon. A coronet of long wheat ears represented in steel and mounted on black velvet was worn over the fore- head and a tea rose was fastened at the side, Black velvet buots with steel buttons, Altogether a most stylish spring costume. * Another toiiette made with a train—the material striped Bultic green slik. In the front of this skirt tue stripes run horizontally, but at the back the ma- terial was 80 cut that tuey ran on the cross and met in the centre. In front the skirt was bordered with Marie Antoinette flounce and at the side with ie pinked out ruches of plain green silk. A “Beauharnais” manteiet of black silk covered the shoullers; it was iigh in the neck, rounded as a peierine behind and trimmed with lace, the ends of the perenne so cut that they could be thrown to the back. THE PARIS FASHIONS. The Birthplace of an Imperial Bride—Aristo- cratic Topogruphy—A Wedding Robe and Pin Money—Reminiscences of Marie An- totnciteSpring Expositions—Dress Materials and Style—How Muslins are Made Up=Nov- eities in Ball Robes, Paris, April 24, 1868, “See Naples and die,” says an old traveller who did not take the advice he gave others so impera- tively. The French have improved on it, and the new bit of counsel now in fashion is:—“See Mingrélie and faint.” What is Mingr¢lie or where is Min- grelie? asked many erudite young ladies a few days ago, and no one seemed at all shocked at the ques- tion. The case is very different now. A young lady who does not know where Mingrélie is cannot be much. Why, Mingrélle is the birthplace of the young princess who is going to marry Prince Achille Murat, the son of Prince Murat, who was in former times— no one need know what he was in former times. His son is @ turfite, a duellist,a prince of the imperial family, brother to the Duchess De Mouchy, who wis Anna Murat, and the name of the bride is Salomé de Mingrélie, and her mother is one of the Russian Em- press’ ladies, and her name is Dadian, which means in Mingrélie ‘supreme, unique, sovereign.” Now your readers can comprehend why a young miss who does not know anything about Mingréile cannot have @ father who fills a very high position in life. ‘The truth is, and notwithstanding the great experi- ence I have of Parisian society, I had no idea of Min- gr‘lie myself until some one condescended to inform me that it ls the same place as Colchis, in Greece, and 1 did not much care then, for I do not believe in the proceedings there carried on by Jason in search of the Golden Fleece, never having yet seen any dragons and bulls vomit fumes. Another detail about it is that this enviable possession Is bathed by one of the four streams that watered Eden—the river Phasis— and it moreover rolls over sands of gold. ‘This accounts perhaps for the price paid for the Princess’ wedding robe, which cost exactly 20,000f.; her annual pocket money is 220,000f., and one of the smali things in her corvette is a palace, which Mr. Pereire has sold to her brother, who could not think of atrifie more acceptable by way of souvenir.

The Evie Litigation—The Scheli Injancticn— Mr. Charies O’Conor’s Defence of Judge Barnard, Before Judge Sutherland. Richard Schell vs, the Erte Railway Company, et a; Peaple vs, Drew; Work vs, Same.—The argament of Mr. Chas. O’Conor on the motion to dissolve the injunction granted in the suit of Richard Schell, en- joining the Erie Railway Company from tesuing siock or converting bonds into stock, and restraining the borrd of directors from holding imeetings or transacting any business as such beard, was con- cluded yesterday. In the course of his ergument, referring to the action of Judge rmacd throughout the whole litigation, Mr O’Conor said:—\e had no apprehension that the case would nut be aay cou. sidered; but we did then think, from the veriety of operations that had taken place in this case—from the multitude of suits that had been brougut—cross suits in every dire tion—from the running hither and thither to catch a judge here and to catch a judge there, in order to try In some way -to have their case decided without being heard or daly considered, and taking into view ali that has been sak abroad and published in the newspapers-and elsewhere throw: odium and reproach upow ove of the judges in tl istrict, we were in some degree apprehensive that ft was among the things possible that those studious efforts to cast odium and dis- credit, as it were, upon all connecied with our side of this case—and, oi course, @ jadge who decides point in our favor becomes #o far, in a degree, cot nected with our side stuce he gives bis vote and judg- ment on our side—we felt ‘ apprehensive that these studious efforts miz not have been without some of of intluence with the mind of any judge that we came before, and therefure we were most exceedingly anxious that our whole merits should get fully spread before him, and that his mind might be ‘disabased of these impeachments that have been cast upun certain judges, 5s Now, the effort in that respect has been very laborious, and at this stage of the case I invite your Honor for a moment to look at the case, as it is now presented before you, as me have patientiy heard it with all its facts’ and with all ita legal features, and I ask you whether there moton circumstance cou- nected with it that is calculated to bring to the m.nd the slightest ground to suspect that the judze who allowed this injunction, on these fac was actuated by anything else than @ sound and judicious ‘View of the law, and a fair and a just inference from the facts and circumstances placed before hit. It is true that you may look at a tan and not Like his face. You may look at his man- ners and not iike them. You may look at his associ- ‘aves and you inay not like them, “You may learn tly he goes fishing, and if i are notin the habit of fishing you may say he fs a trifling fellow and dors not give attention to his lawful business. Ali these things may be done, but they are unjust; they are matters which give rise to natural emotions in the mind, and we are bound, ali of us, and I am very cer- tain onr judges in general do try to guard ayrainst them as much as possibie. While, as we have shown in this case, the merits were with us, that a course of wrong most striking and marked has been pursued by the parties whom we seek to enjoin, wien we show all these ted clearly, and show that the in- Junctions were rightly granted, manitestiy fed im ‘a right view of the law and a right view of the facts, T apprehend that the Judge stands vindicate’. We have no right to judge men by their acts and \ioings. Human motive is seen only by the great all-seeiug eye, Men judge of cach other, but they have nu Feit to judge of motives save and except ax those motives are exhibited by the acts of men, and while the case was so clear and plainly right, as we respect- fully maintain the act of allowing these injunctions was and 80 Fe ge think we may claim an acquittal of the dale who has been traduced and has been thus vilitied, who has been prosecuted, who has been enjoined, I think we may claim in this ordeal, In this trial, whatever may be his fault in the estimation of his enemies (for I know of none), he comes forth perfectly vindicated and sustained.
