London, Dec. 27 Noon. Another of thosa
fiendish outiaireg wblch have characterized the
operations of the Fenian Brotherhood has
juit been perpetrated at Dublin. TcleeranTs
received from there to-day give the following
particulars:
An unusually large number of letters have re
ccntly been received at the Post Office at Dublin,
directed to prominent officials. Each one of
these letters was loaded with explosive com
pound, designed to kill the person addressed.
Several ol them exploded before their real na
ture was ascertained, but up to this time no
person has been killed. One of the city police
men wbo received a letter was horribly mangled,
by the explosion, which occurred when a-l
opened It It is not known how many ot these
dangerous missives have been despatched.
Considerable excitement prevails In Dublin
and elsewhere, throughout the country,
on the dlicovery of this latest Fenian
outrage. The authorities are actively
Investigating it, and will, no doubt, probe the
matter to the bottom. The- "Times" of this
morning has an editorial article on the Fenian
question, and says that no less than 50,000
special constables have been sworn in and are
dow serving in London, and asks the provincial
cities and towns to emulate the precautionary
measures of the metropolis.

Thb Wiktbh Fashioss. The following will
be found to be a correct transcript of latest swr
gesllve proclamation of fsshlondom, and will
not fall lo Interest a great number of our
renders. The wln.er bonnets ure "models of
artistic skill," and their vailous details will be
lound In the following
STYLES or BONNETS.
A pretty bonnet of white material Is notice
able for the ohasieness of Us style. It has a
Blight crown, wltb narrow, standing front. The
maierlal Is plain lu the centre, but has four
plalis on each side, running; from the edge of
the front to the back, of the crown, A band of
lUi-mark velvet covers the Joining of the front
and crowD, crossing the ed8 of the latter. This
Is the only outside decoration, and a fall of nar
row blonde, a spray of lorgei-uie noU, form the
Inrlde trimmings. The mrlngs are wulle.
A pretty bonnet for evening is of pink tnlle,
shirred over a Fanchon shape, with a slight
point In front, and edged with nan ow blonde,
and having wide pink etrlugs. Worn by a bru
nette, K In exceedingly becoming.
A handsome carriage bonnet Is of golden
brown velvet, edged with wblte.blonde, plaited
full at the back, and having a cluster of bril
liant flowers in front. A black velvet has a fall
of black point lace depending from the crown,
cluster of white velvet leaves In front, and
soaris of velvet edged with white blonde falllug
at the side.
In lound bats the "sensation" shape Is, per
haps, must worn. It bas a low orown and nar
row drooping brim. Another style has a low
crown and narrow brim, slightly rolled at the
sides. The turban sbapo also bas many admi
rers, atid there Is always such a variety of
sljles thst each particular fancy may be suited.
A Dew feature observable In millinery is pat
tern bonneis, that are not expensive. These
are composed of a leal frame on of the best
covered and trimmed wfih paper of harmonis
ing colors, lo Imitate the style of real trim
minus. 0L0AK4.
The prevailing styles are sack and paletot
Among the new Myles recently brought out Is
the "Kspana," which Is of black beaver, sack
shape, and trimmed with blaek satin folds and
jets. From the shoulders the trimming curves
towards the centre, at the waist, from which
each descends separately, widening into sash
ends that are tipped with jet lriuge.
A pretty clonk, vailed the "Marlllne," is of
blHck velvet edged with chinchilla fur. A cloak
of ilnmboldt purple clelh has a wide sash at the
back, and Is t rl aimed with heavy satin folds.
This Is styled the "Urattan."
The "Almahaide" is rather unlqne. It Is
sleeveless, falling loosely over the arms, and is
made of black cloth, with narrow, short snips
of starlet cloth cros'ed with gold braid orna
menting the edge. There is a deep point over
the arm; this, with epaulslUs, gives it the ap
pearance of having sleeves. A handsome black
velvet cloak Is trimmed with sealskin. It is
sack-shaped, and is cut In four points at the
bottom.
An; elegant opera oloak, the "8ellka," is of
while satin, elaborately embroidered und eded
with swan's down. Auother, a beautiful opera
cloak, the "Ksoilella," is of white velvet em
broidered with floss. It is circular form, with
wide sleeves. The collar is in form of a yoke at
the back, the corners turning back lu front.
KRESS MODES.
"The short walking dresses continue In their
reign of popularity, and appear to be a perma
nent improvement. However, there is a new
style, easily adapted to both house and street.
The skirt is full, aud gored with a train, having
a bblt of the seme material, with sash ends at
the back. Ameng the folds of the suirt Is a
button, and when leaving the house this Is
raised to a loop under ton saeh, fastening tue
oret-s ktho 'tuny, bdu luaaingit ine rignt length.
On entering again the button is easily slipped
from the loop. This Is a decided improvement
when a lady wisues to make calls aud does not
keep ber carriage.
The mist economical and most userul, be
cause the most durable, are the walking suits
made of water-proof cloth, aud when neatly
made tney lootc well, tierce, winsey, tweed,
and silk are each much used for suits of dresses
for walking, and over them a cloak of heavy
material is worn.
A neat evening dress was recently worn, of
wnne sua veinea or cneuea, wun just enough
black to nightly tinge the ground. It was cut
with high b dice at the back, the front low and
souare. l'omoadour style, and worn over an
uuderwalsl of lace. It was becoming, and less
Injurious to the health than low neck and short
sleeves.
A novelty in the shape of a sleeveless lacket
bas been recently brought out. It Is beautifully
cmbroidered.bavlng a variegated wrea h around
the edge, and, for eiegunce or design, the blend
iDg of colors and artistic skill, e lualled any im
ported work.
JKlHUKLLiAnilOUH.
The "Hyperion Hair Curler'r is a recent In

around this roller, and the elastlo loop slipped

Among the new and excellent things is the
"DiatnoDd Needle," which, as Its name ex
presses, is a superior article, and decidedly pre
ferable to any other needle. It is of the "finest
stetl, best polish," and has a smooth eye.

Public opinion bas been preoccupied by tbe Import
ance of the appeal made to the people lu regard to
some reforms of tbe Consiitutioa, announced In the
convocation of tbe 14th of August. Tbe discussion
I elated to the niaauer of proposing thetu than tbe re
fer nis themselves, A great number of citizens have
voted In favor of them. Home voted against them;
others bave retrained from voting, sharing perbans

tated under ordiuary circumstances.
The Goveruu eut cooaideis Itself Jnstifled In this
Instance, In view ol the extraordinary aud excep
tional sanation arising nut of tlie uaaientous crisis
through wblcb the republic has Ju.l nassed. Tne
results ol the vote la not yet known wltb exaotneas;
but even If Ihe presumption Is that the Vole given la
favor of reiorms do not reach lo a malortly, still they
rei resent a great number ot cltlseua whose opinion
deserves io he considered. If this number la a ided
to itiose who bave voted against tbe propositions,
they form, donblless. a great majority of the i-eoole
who have ccepied and made use of tire moans of the
apreal. It might be necessary te await the verifica
tion ot ihe voiea. but question and doubts might be
ruined thereby which would delay the resolution
while the principal mot, ve lor which the method of
tbe appeal bad been adopted was that of a speedy
adoption of rtlornie,,
I be cnnvlc- Ion which the Oovernment had and still
his. that tnese lelorms are necesnary and urgent, lead
It to prefer tbe abriailou ol formality, with tne hope
that in ti-Is way they may be more speedily adopted.
Therefore Instead of asking lor a verification of the
vole, the Qoverumeot would submit the point of
re orm In question lo the wsilom oi congress. In order
that It run; come to a determination abiut them
according to the rules established by tbe Constitution.
Wl h ti is end in view, the Initiative respecting them,
will be Immediately presented.
By Ibe law of the 27th of May, 1SH3, the concession of
powers to the Kxeeutlv was exleaded to thirty days
aft. r the mre'lng nl Congress, nr might explr ooner
II the war with France terminated. Mexico could
not declare the war to be ended, although there doAol
exist tie acta hostilities with France. Hhe was the
nation that brought the war here without having till
this t'ine mad any declaration Implying lu close.
According to law, tber-lore. the powers conceded to
the Fxecutive ougtit to be valid thirty days longer,
counted from to-day Notwithstanding this. I deem
It svn-e tod ollne, as I do decline, by tut solemn aoi,
tbe further use ol ihvui.
II theie should suggest ltv If anything necessary to
give greater action te the Government. I nava ral-h
enough In tbe patriotism of tbe representatives ot
the peot-le lo be convinced taat tney will give It
their sui port and co-operation dints, I g tba means
which their prudence and high wisdom may regard
as convenient.
It Is g.aierul te me, rltlsens, deputies, to return to
yon the trust of H e great p iw era which yoj bave

lioo of all my act I have never bad any other tnnugbt
then that nl the national good, and ill salvation, of

In the article No. t of the law already referred to a
leeUUvUtfu was luatle ceacarulug the power of coa-

lieaaons for his Suspension.
Tbe New York llnrald't Washington cor
respondence, dated last evening, gives tbe fol
lowing: Kx-Hecretary Btanton has returned to this city, and
I busy, It is said, preparing his defense before loo
t-enaie. Wbat line be will adopt Is unknown to out
sliie barbarians, a sluce bis retirement from ofUo ho
baa practised the utmost reticence and a-oreoy, re
fusing to ha Interrogated by correspondent, aud de
clining to Inform even bis frlei.de wbat he is about.
The geDral Impression now aeeuia to betnatbehaa
a poor case, anu that be caunot muster a corporal's
guard of supporter In the Ben ate. In thi coauee
llorr It ruay he stated lhat ths cause assigned In tba
Presldeut's ktesaags for lha removal or Atr, btantoa
are hy no means the only oues which led. lo that re
sult. There were other wblcb. In tha mind
cf tbe President, furnished strong ground for,
the decf t; n of the (Secretary. Among these wero
charges id divulging C'aolnel proceedings, auu or con
niving at ihe circulation ot Blander against the Pre
sident. Aa an Illustration I may mention that it waa
charged gainst Mr. Jobnaon thai be bad apollated
.booth's diary by tearing out of it a uumber ot leaves,
containing positive evidence of complicity In the as
sattsttiailou ot Presldeu Linculu. Turn leave. It waa
said, were bidden away somewhere in tha War
liepartment, under the control ot Mr. fstauton and
Juuge Auvocale-Ueneral Holt. Whether lucta
haves existed or uot It was deemed by Pre
sident Johnson to be the duly of the Secretary
ot War lo make tbe fact known. If tba aiory of
Ihe existence of evidence of the klud mentioned
was rtue, stautou ought to bave had the parties ira
pl 'i-uted by tbe evidence, brought to Justice and con
victed, even ihouirh oue of them happened to be tha
President of the United Siat-s. Thai, ths President,
believed, was a duly the Secretary of War owed; to
the people. If It were not true, then, as a Cabluet
o Ulcer, as a confidential adviser of thaPrealrteut.it
was bis duly to olear away such a biacrr. cloud from,
the lame ot bis superior. Mr. Btanton did neither tha
one thing aor the oilier, tlinngu be kaw all alooaj
tn u.t the story of President Johnson's ompllcity
In Ihe crime was utterly uulonnded. This
alone. In tbe Presldeut's opinion, -was a sulli
cieiit groutid for Mtaiilon'i removal. At tu ium
