htadquarten of tbe Liociata 1 this city, liia des-
fiatctiea show that tbe account tit tbe defeat of tbe
jbrls at Monterey, w tb the capture of Keoobodo
and vibr chieftains, wai all e. onnjrd.
In accordance with the p'tan previously Indicated
a column of ncii, uulr Uenerai Joenntngro,
marched from Monterey and occupied Linares and
Moreios. Another column, undor Uenoral Donai,
marched froeri fcaltille te Ualeano. A third column,
. under Otiu.ral Dttptn, marohed from slateintala
anon tbe ratio Uo Pavlillo, about fire league Irom
Victoria.
Tbe lute oi march of these difleront columns was
paraUeL and was intended toallor.t facilities lor cou.
centmf.on and mutual protection, it seems that
one ot'tho main objects was to deieat and disperse
ton armr ol Genet al Kspinosa. at Victoria. Oeue
ml lispinosa, under orders from General Kscobeilo,
n arched out ol Victoria, and gave baitle to Gone
tral Dup n, Tbe ao ion lasted liaif the day and till
ltbt varied the con batauu, each party occupying
their respective positions,
linring the utirlit General Rsplnosa becoming
satisfied Uat beut-ral Dupiu bad been reinforced
bv General Douai, retired upon Victoria. He had
checked Geneial Dupin, andwasuot molested on
bis march ; but this is attributable, in a great degree,
to the iaot that General ttcobudo had marched
upon L nures, and Oeuera' Joenningros found him
self con polled to abandon the place, aad retire
with great rabidity upon Monterey. In this retreat
the Imperialists ios. a gieat munv by desertion,
aud Uie deserters bare taken service with tbe
Liberals.
The combinations of General Icobodo gave him
tbe opportunity to fail upon the French at Linares
with nearly bis whole force, while Generals Dupin
and Douai were not within supporting distance of
General Joenningros. The retreat of General
JoenningroK necessitated, the retreat ot Generals
Douai and Dupin. 1
The campaign of the Frenoh has resulted thus far
in a laiiure. Ihuy committed many exocses, and
let no iriends behind them In Linares, Morelos,
and Ga tauo, they imposed foroed loans In Uaioaao
. the people assured them they cou a not nay the sum
requited. The Fronoh cal ea tor an addit onsl ten
thousand do.lars, which they called a hue In the
town of icran they burnt several houses because
some 01 the inhabitants were with the LiacralB. I hey
teok prisoners the Alcalde of ftan Pedro de Xtur
bide and bu son, and tlie people had to pay tluve
thousand dollars to random them I hey drove off
ali the he rses and i he mules 01 the llexictns wher
ever tbev went
At present General seobedo occupies Linares,
Morolos, and tne same points as beloro ihu move

Ltcor Mexico. April 1', 1hs. Kesimcted Hlri Kveats
of some Importance have taken p aou In tbe State of
Coahu la during the month of March last
Ihe people ol that Htite havlna ottserved that very
few troops belonging to Maximilian's party were sta
t onedln their midst, ludged the opportunl'y verv apn'O-
f rla'e for displaying. In a vetv striking manner, their
rue political sen lineiiw and tendenoles. Acting nnJer
tbls Impulse they rose In many towas and districts
against the monarchy, anil In lavorot ihe Republic, and
expelied or Imprlaooed the clnl officers who had bi'en
placed oval them by Maxlmi.lan Tbey also concen
trated their forces end attacked the city of Saltiho,
which la also the capital, and alter whipping the Impe
rial troops tbey captured that city, taking some prlion
era, artillery, hagKaite etc. These things happened In
tbe latter part of March.
As soon as General Kegrete learned these racts.be
declined lo endeavor lolorm a Junction between hts own
army and tbe Republic ant In ha ti'l and other parts ol
Coahulla. He therefore moved his torces ea tward
through the desert, and bnrrled by loroed marches to
gain naiuno.
As soon as the French ohseived this movement, they
left tfet ir camp at the river Nazas anu wore hurrying to
intercept the movement ot Ueneral kegrete. A lew
days more must tell us the result oi tbls campaign.
If General Negrete reaches Saltlllo in satety, he will
thi n command some flAO men.
Troops aienow leaving this cltv to take up podtton
on the irontler ot JXirauo, snd to menace that State
and occupy the attention of the French .
Arms are now verv scarce, aud tbe want Is very
severe y lelt bv this Government.
Recruits are more easily obtained than heretofore, but
the want ot guns paralyzes everything very much.
Ihe constancy and devotion of the fresioeat are
extraornlnari'. Ii bis executive talents be not very
brilliant surely Ms fidelity under such trying circum
stances will lend a blaze ot glory to bis official career.

3d of this montbra strong detachment, composed of in

train, lei this fty and returned to tbe Intorlor being
ordered W4o. re por at the city ot Pan Lots Potosi. In
the courMAl the month other detachments have moved

General Hrlncourt and his command abandoned this
cltv taking with .blm a I his stores and military pro
perty and returning npon the same road upon which he
made his advance. It is probable that in a lew davs not
a single French soldier will be ielt on tno soil of this

officers run awat t
lortav. the Liberals command In this cltv. I think
that In a few dai s they will be in ottlce in all parts of the
Sta e.
President Juarez has no organized forces In this state
and thereiore the retarn or tbe Liberals to ottlee and

very good tecipe lor a modern bonnet, which wo ad

have a bonnet of the prevailing mode, which you
can call chupcau Lauinal e, lanchon. Trianon, ptlu
lamer, d'elo, Many, oi Mandarin b auc, according
lo your lancy."
Having described the general characteristics ol
these charming bits ol nonsense.we will paiticu arize
a lew of the prettiest to be seen in the ehps. One
very stylish bonnet is a combina ion of Fauchon and
i'amela. The foundation is oov. red witb pink silk,
over whioh white tulle and blonde are arranged. A
pink snk ribbon, with white blonde at both edgos,
crosses the bonnet, aud over the ribbon there is a
parland of wild roses, which is continued as aohaine
beuoitou, tailing iu ii out upon tho breast. A cameo
brooch is need lor tautening the strings. Another
bonnet, very tultab e lor dress occasions, i of white
tnl'e. The mile is puffed across the bonnet, aad the
puffings are tepatatcd by a row of arge pearls. The
edge oi tbe bonnet aud the curtain is made of white
si k, embroidered with seed pearls, and tho band it
eaged wi h blonde, and from the adge there descend
lestoons ot pearls round the uoper part of the face
and on to tlie hair, the strings are made ot white
tulle, ed' ed with b on.ie, aud are fastened wi h a
small bouquet ot flowers a rose and a spray ot li y
ok the valley.
Fancy straws, mixed with si'k or orete. and
wreathed witb flowers, are very suitable lor common
summer wear.
bo much attention and invention have been ex-
pended on bonnets this season, so muoti pains have
been lavished to reduce them to mere Ian astioal
head drostes, tiiat hats apptar to have been entirely
overlooked, for nothing absolutely ana strikingly
new in the form of hats has as yet been introduced.
although there are certain alterations in tho stvie ot
trimming them. Instead of broad sarsanet ribbons
aad leather being used, as foimBr.y, nairow velvet
ribbon with small flowers tocn as daisies, violets,
ttdpomms roses, sewn at regular intervals upon
i Be nutons are worn, intee norai Danus are
lanatd round tbe bat. and are susuended as Benoi-
ton chains over tbe chigvon. A long gauze ve 1, tbe
same color as the flowers, is lastened at the right
side ot the tront ot the head with an ecoenti te orna
ment, in either silver, mother of pearl, or jet; then
the veil crosses the front ot tbe bat, is again fastened
down at the left side with a tnft ot flowers or fea
thers, and tne veil floats giacomlly over tbe left
snouiaer. '. yynite gauze yens, oruamenwa wita
flowers and straw, are worn on dressy occasions.
Among the new avorite summer materials are the
piques, wtrcu are woveu tn season so aa to 10 as
though they were coarsely ribbed, and tbey are
geueiauv coverea wita a pattern, ine patterns
imitate braide arbeqasi irjlpurej there are also
flowers and hone-shoes, and several other designs.
generally on wh.to grounds. lroa'os are lorf
popular for demi toiletto, and the newest paitarus
iu this material are stripes of a dark oolor with large
daisies or camel, or stars in tbe stripes; tbe ground
of the diess is either white or maize co or.
As a change to wear with piqu38 and linos there
is a new material cal ed the Sultaue. It is uade of a
very fine vt ool, with satin stripes, and is soinotu ng
like the woouon uuamoery gauze, ic is very pretty
n light color, sucb as tbe new b ue, pink, mauve,
and sea green. Ii is not ixponsive, and many
pretty promenade toilettes are made of it, trimmed
with ribbon of the same color and with ihibot
fringe.
It is not such a difficult matter to be well dressed
in summer without spending a great doa of money,
as mutt necessarily be the case in winter. Freshness
is the gieat merit oi a summer toilette, with tvo
or three mohair, alpaca, and sultunodressos, looped
up over either silk or white alpaca petticoat, trimmed
wun luitiou-woi k represented in Diaoa veivei a wiuto
musliu drees or two. aud a new light silk, it is not
difficult tor a lady to look well and elegantly dressed
curing the entire season.

ueDlums ate ihe order ot the day. he peplutus are
edited with either a lama or silk fiinge. or else wiiii

Toilettes lor the s aside, and "Lei Stux" are
more lautas 10 than at any previous peri d. Tbe
lung traiu, it stems, caunot be dispensed with even
lor the e walking costumes; so, .u order to make
them vt ramble, a iasluouabla inantua wak r has
produced what is cal ed a Wattoau costume, in
which iitbons, coming Irom the sides in lront,
s rve to loop up the tram at the back with a large
knot and long ends. This, in light, dressy materials,
is very pre' ty, and really gives the emb anoo, with
the small wreathed basket woinon the top ot tn
chignon, of the sliepber Jess costumes we sesiothe
artifloiai groups of Wa'teau, Uouche, and other
painters of the eighteenth century. More simple
texturs, such as pique and the varieties of mohair,
will imitate this style in bands of color instead
of, wiae ribbons. Tbore are, beside, the qaite
short dresses, made to look looped uo
over a silk band s muiating a pettiooat,
vt blch a ill prove so convenient for ihe country and
the sea-ride that tbe style will probably be in great
luvor. With all short looped-up skirts the teet are
very visible, and boots, as a matter of course, are
far better aiteuded to than when tbe train-skirts are
worn. Some boots ae very elaborate, and perched
upon the mcst Impossible ol bee's, measuring quite
two inches in height. Bronze kid boots, with either
crystal or g It buttons, sre the most popular, be
cause they can be worn with almost every descrip
tion of toilette. Other boots, in equally as good
tasle, are made of steel grey armure de loie, aud are
tipped with kid to match, tbe Joining ol the ti s
with tl e upper part ot the boot Doing embroidered.
The heels, which are covered with kid, are likewise
embroidered. , ,
in consideration of the many fair brides whose
weddings aru to take plaoe in this sw.-et month of
roses, we close with the to lowing suggestion iu
regard to bridal attire by the l'aris correspondent of
tbe (Jut en :
"At tbe present season that peculiarly dead white
gros, wbiob looks aud I- both rich aud thion, is tho
favorite matenal or a bridal d.ess The bodices are
usually out with tbe pep'uin basques. It the bride
is very you htul, a wide tarlataua ruohe is added
round Ihe edre ol the skirt, and the ueplum basque
is likewise tr mated with a similar ruche, long white
