Fakir, March 22. Tke first of the official con-c-rta
ot the season wait sivou this day week oy
Comte WalewsKi at the Corps LegiHlatif, in
honor 01 the young Prince's blrtrutuy. All the
amb'-8B(lors, the diplomatic corps, anil mem
bers boih of the rlht and Intt (which denomi
nation Mirnitips einpiro and opvooitlon), lelt it
a duty and pleamiru to accept the invitation 01
the President ot Parliament. Gustavo Dorc, the
painter, was seen in close conversation with
the Dune do Mouchy and Muetapha Pasha with
tta Apostolic Nuncio.
The arranuement of the Interior of the galene
ties fiirs was entirely novel, two raws of reserved
eats beine placed In the centre of the brilliantly
illuminated hall. Thee were occupied by l idies
in the ricuc.-t toileis, the eentlcmfi) being seafeft
nil around In a circle, and did not look unlike a
dark border round a parterre ot flowers, every
woman boinp of course the loveliest.
Xbe orchestra formed a vast amphitheatre in
the midst of an artificial prove.
About 10 o'clock Princes' Clothilde entered
n Comte WalewsKi's arm. Hhe wore ft white
moire robe, of which the body was half white
and half pink. Tucne parti colored bodices are
aettine very lashioimble. Some end. In a b.w
umne on one side llowinp off in a point.
M. Pasdeloup led the orchestra. M'uie Miolan
CarvuHio cave Aubcr's air d'Action and t,ou
noa's Valne de Mireille. Zucchini w h quite as
fcuccesHlul. A bouquet ol Parma violets was
preentcd to M'me Carvalho, in the centra of
which stuod out a laree M. in white. The. ini
l4al was intended lor Miolan aud Margueilte
(Faust'.").
Monday, the 13th, a irrand concert was siveu
by the Emperor and Empre-s at the Tuiicries.
"Enfrac" was printed at the bottom of the in
vitation card.. Tnis meant tliat silk stockings,
short pantalonns, and either black or blm' cloth
cjats were to be worn Instead of uniforms.
Every seat had its appointed place, every rank
of noblesse its particular row.
At 'J the Emperor and Empress entered the
Salle dca Marechaux, and the concert beerati.
Between each part they rose and congratulated
tbe artists, who were M'me (Jalli Alane, M'me
Cabel, tHinte Foy, M. Bataille, M. Capoul, and
M. Alard. When the concert was over tbey
thanked the artiste again, and entered the sa'on
ot tbe Premier Consul, where all the guests were
assembled iu a luige circle, round which the
Empress walked, speaking to each In turn, or
when she had nothing to eny she smiled recog
nition, or otherwise gracefully acknowledged the
pretence ol all.
The following were the most a Inured toileU:
A white pros gifiiu brocaded with luchsias;
the pUtil of each flower ended in a red pparl.
The style was a I'empne, the bodice cut square;
luchsias and pearls in the hair, ruby und
diamond fuchsias in the eats.
Another was made of maize-colored satin,
covered with tulle, of which the puffs were
divided with foreec-me nots, in the heart of
each a glittering diamoud. The same was made
of white satin, and tne pulls divided with long
chaplets ot moss roses.
The richet toilet was a pink satin; round the
bottom ot tbe train fell a flounce it Aleucon;
tbe bodice was a peplura, eudmg with pearls,
and the headdress was of pearl. A marquise
wore light grey satin, over which a Chantilly
tunic, looped up with grenade-. Her jet-black
hair was plaited and dressed with diamonds.
The other great event of the week is the per
formance at the Gymnase of Alexandre Dumas,
Jr.'s, new piece, tbe Ideas of Madame Aubray.
The Emperor and Empress were present, con
sequently ''lout Porta." The author himself
was nowhere visible, taoueh lorgnettes searched
out every dark corner; but the father of the
hero ol that evening. Alexandre Dumas himself,
was radi'int in the front box on the secoud tier.
Madame Aubtay's Ideas met with such success
that all the theatres will certainly produce Ileus
with a slight variation of title.
The pre. Host l.lie bonnets were noticed in all
the dress boxes. One looked very attractive, I
thought, on a wondering tair head of curls. It
was made of rosy pink with a diadem of elder
berries In front, and the tulle strings were tau
tened under a moss rose.
Then there was a white crape bonnet, with
hop blossoms of the most delicate verdure, and
for the first time 1 saw azalias and other open
flower9 made of small jet bugle beads, There
is a peculiar ambre mat bead which is not bright
but milky looking, ami it looks very eleg int as
ball fringe over scarlet velvet trimmings witu
straw.
Before I leave the hat department I must com
municate to your readers a fear that I entertain,
and which will meet with their sympathy,
namely, that bonnets are ceasing to be a useful
institution. I have stood up for them as Ion? a I
could, but now there is nothing left to stand av
for. When crowns were abolished I approved,
lor what was the use of a crown on the b'teK. of
one's bead? When curtains were curtailed I
rejoiced; when pokes were anathemati.ed I
applauded, and when nothing was left but a pair
of springs I saw no great evil either; bit now
that strings are being cast aside, bebiud, and
petting shorter and narrower every coining
morn, 1 ask can a learned counsel defend a
client who has not any substance?
Our spring costumes will be cut into every
possible shape over pleated under petticoat-".
Some will be tied, towel fashion, behind; o'.hers
will be fringed round: dented, notched, cat in
squares; ctosb cut stripes of silk will be much
used for trimming. We are still wearing velvet
and fur, tor the weather is very cold ; but all the
summer mohairs are out in windows.
, Grey is the favorite color as yet.
There is a new necktie, called the cravat neck
lace a bead lace invention, with ends in front,
but a plain piece of velvet, with a jet bund
fringe, is just as pretty. Jet necklaces are made
deep in front, and diminish in depth as they go
off behind. They look very prettv, with a belt
to match, over white muslin. These jet belts
are also made like pepiuius, in long points on
euch side. JV. 1. Derald.
The Uible on Divorce.
To the Editor of the Evening Telegraph:
"What, therefore, find Uatli Joined together, let not
man puiusuuder. Whosoever hIiuU put away uiswue,
and niarrv another, comralltetb adultery airainnt her:
and If a womau Bhali put uway her husband and in
married to another, she commllteth aaultery.
Mark x : W 12.
In humble obedience to the above, (iod's
mandate to man (unfortunately overlooked to
this day), it becomes the cluti of Pennsylvania
to expunye from her Mute Constitution the ob
noxious article authorizing Divorces, anil to sub
stitute for it another one forbidding them absolute! ij
unit Jore.vtr.
Let the amendment be submitted to the peo
ple singly, without being accompanial by political
auestions which minht defeat the object in view.
I am confident that it would be adopted
unanimouttlv. aa we are a moral people.
Legislators, do your duty. Jlumoce the frown
of Heaven from our State Statutes I
Pennsylvania will be blessed, and Heaven
will be your reward. A Christian.
N. 1$ In South Carolina divorces are for
bidden altogether; in Nw York they are also,
except in caees of adultery, and the guilty
party i noi auowea. to marry again.
The Indpbtriocb Beavbr. The Garden of
riants, in Paris, now possesses a beaver, from
Canada, to which comfortable auartera have
been assigned on the banks of the rivulet
which Intersects a part of the menagerie.
.Desirous oi meeting tne wishes ol the new
comer in every respect, the administration had
provided a hut for it ; but the Canadian stran
ger, having inspected the premises, and not
tonnd them to his taste, has pulled them
Jnwn. and with the muterials built ud a new
mansion in his own way, using bis tail both as
a trowel ftod hammer.

Some time since we stated in Tue Eveni.no
Telegrai'H tliat the police force were about
engaging in the labor of enumerating the
youth of both sexes, between the ages of six
and eighteen. This task lias been performed
by them, iu accordance with instructionslaid
down by lidward Shippen, Esq., the President
of the Hoard of School Controllers, by whom
the necessary blanks were prepared. The
enumeration is now complete, and this after
noon we present it to the public in the accom
panying tables. An examination will show
how thorough it has been; aud we have
reason to believe, from the carefulness exhi
bited by the officers in gathering their infor
mation, that it is essentially correct. The
children enumerated include those only who
are between the ages of six and eighteen,
which ha been found to be about 18 per cent,
of the entire population. This would render
the present aggregate population of the city of
Philadelphia at least 7S4,dOO.
In the following statements will be found a
general summary of the details of the accom
panying tables:

The preparation of these statistics is hut one
step towards a still further expansion of our
admirable Public School system. The Board
of Control now have at hand a reliable basis
on which to establish their work. Knowing
the precise number of children in each sec
tion of the city, and their classification by age,
sex, and employment, it will be easy for them
to ascertain whether the facilities offered by
the schools under their general supervi
sion are at all equal to the demand.
The mere fact that there are
in the city at the present time over twenty
thousand children between the ages of six and
eighteen full fourteen and a half per cent, of
the entire number who are neither in attend
ance upon any school nor engaged in any kind
of regular employment, shows that there is au
ample field for labor still left open. A largo
number of these, as a matter of course, are
to be set down in the list of invalids, or as
absent from the city for the express pu rpose
of receiving a liberal education; but we think
both these classes will be found to embrace
but a small minority of those included in the
twenty thousand in question. The Board of
Control, however, have at their disposal an
immense sum of money lor the erection of
new school-houses, aud about half-a-dozen
are al ready under way. mat tne work
will be pushed forward on these aud
many others already projected we
have no doubt ; more especially as
the Board itself has recently undergone a
radical reformation, the appointment of its
members by a late act of the Legislature hav
ing been taken out ot the hands of petty poli
ticians, and lodged with the responsible and
unpartisan judges of our city courts.
