THE DAILY EVENING TELEGRAPH PHILADELPHIA, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 18, 1868.
Autumnal Fashlotts In Philadelphia.
Fashion seems to have at length reached the
point t which H has been aiming for several
seasons, and the ladles of our repnollo will this
winter appear In the costume of the time of
Loots Fifteenth. Th simple and primitive
idea, stripped of all the mysteries of the mo
distes, items to be a Cress having a reasonably
hort stir, over which Is placed another hav
ing a train, whloh train Is drawn np In folds,
loeps, and all sorts of fanciful methods, present,
log unlimited opportunities lor trimming aad
H species of ornamentation.
We have been acoastomed to similar style
Upon the prima donna of the opera and the
tragedy queen of the stage, and the modes now
offered for the approval of the publlo will, we
think, be generally stigmatised as too theatri
cal. But of course our eyes will beoome used to
uch sights, and human nature la blessed with
wondrous power of adapting Itself to olroum
Btaoces. Quaint as the new panler dress Is In form,
there Is grace In. Its sweeping folds, a sort of
majesty of amptltude strikingly different from
the IrJgnes and business-like aspect of the
short suits wern doling the last spring. The
fashion will sucoeed, lor It Is becoming and
striking; but it will be necessarily restricted to
lull dress and those leisurely ladles who are
able to wear It.
To heighten the effect and grace of this cos.
tume. the under and over portions may be of
contrasting colors or different fabrics. Thus
the under part may be of green and white
Btrlped silk, while the upper Is of plain green
The upper part or tunlo may also be made of
laoe or thin white muslin tortured Into tae
moBtamarlng oon volutions, while beneath Is a
fancy colored robe, either high or low-necked.
The puflN or folds forming the panler are also
enppcsEd to need an external support to keei
them In place, and therefore scarf-ends and
ashes, tied In fanciful forms at the back or side,
oan be added In endless profusion, fass, and
flutter.
In conformity with this historical revival
comes the Watteau dress. This is a picturesque
adaptation of the queenly train, the fulness
starting at the neck but 'Confined to the cor
sage, permitting the belt defining the slender
sees of the plain waist In Iront to pass beneath
the folds behind, so that the grace of the shape
Is uninjured by the ampleness of the drapery.
This Watteau style Is adapted to both low and
high eorsages and to cloaks.
Fichus, or what by the uninitiated would be
called scarfs and email capes, belong to these
modes. The portraits of Marie Antoinette
familiarize us with the form, which Is a grace
ful scarf oi small cape crossing over the breast
and extending lnio long ends.whlch pass round
the waist and are tied behind, as If to support
the folds of the panler. Innumerable are the
variations of this lundamental Idea of the fichu.
They vary in size from a mere band of trim
ming to a cape of considerable dimensions;
come also are adorned with hoods of different
shapes, and In some cases the lappets or ends
that tie behind are so enlarged as to simulate a
double skirt.
The complexity of the costume o'oourse leads
to many more simple contrivances by whloh
the same effvet Is gained by other means. The
panler folds can be formed In a detached por
tlonand added to the train, trimmings can also
be made to resemble or supply the place of the
multiplication of skirts.
That most rich and beautiful fabric, the old
changeable silk ,1s also revived under the new
same of chameleon. From tbe gorgeous dis
plays in the windows It is to be Judged that
they will be the favorite style of the winter,
The shifting shades of green and gold, blue and
crimson, yellow, with black or brown, and all
the endless combinations permissible In this
fabric, have a variable (trace denied to the
coloring of the richest denned figures, spots, or
stripes.
These silks are shown everywhere as gay, and
glanclDg as the plumige of a bird, but abound
at Kickey, Bhurp & Co.'s, who pay a special
attention to silk; at Proctor's there Is also a flue
arrav. The chameleon dyes also extend to
poplins and series, or which Edwin Hall, Cur-
wen Btoddard, Thomas, and Strawbridge &
Clothier exhibit a great variety both iu style
and qudllty.
Trimmings are indeed "too numerous to men.
Uoni" everything seems allowable and in pro
fusion ribbon, fringe, laces, puffs, ruffles
alngly-bnd in combination. A new style of
fringe at Mrs. Binder's Is very striking and
peculiar the wide beading of a solid ground
has a flower or rich figure In high colors, and
xoatohed Inserting has the effect of a robe
trimming upon a plain silk. At this house are
also some dainty robes in whloh a two-years'
Hiss may well contest the prize for dress with
her mother. A white pique underskirt, em
broidered or braided, with an over shorter skirt
In buff pique was especially pretty.
The rapid changes In fashion are causing one
Important alteration In ornamentation. Jew
dry must also assume fitting styles and shapes.
Combinations of gilt and steel are very effect"
ive, lighting up particularly well at night. A
variety ot different stiles are exhibited at
Bailey's, and Caldwell has also a fine array of
the sets combs, hair bands, necklaces, lookets,
ear-rings, breast-pins, and bracelets, whloh are
also expected to follow suit. Painted Jewelry
la also very pretty, viz., paintings on silk set In
gold, jet or pearls. But perhaps the daintiest of
ail for light evening dress U formed of flowers,
a wreath for tbe bead, a necklaoe of blossoms
fastened around the neck, with a small bouquet
to serve an a breant-pln.
The crowning wonder, the winter bonnet, is
till a question of doubt. Milliners must be ex
onerated from the old sweeping charge that
women cannot keep a secret. Fearful rumors
I revall that bonnets are to be small, whatever
thai may mean, when we had hoped that we
1 ad alreaoy reached the minimum. Hut the
n auer will remain a mystery until "Opening

LirriNCOTT'a Magazine. Our Philadelphia
Magazine keeps well to the front with the best
of its ncmeroas rivals, and tbe October number
whloh hasjubt been issued, Is above the usual
average in merit Tbe table of contents show
a sufficient variety, and a hasty glanoe through
tbe different ai Holes Indicates that they are
written In an attractive style, and treat of
Interesting subjects. Mrs. IMvIb' novel of
"Djljas Gttilbrallh" is concluded In tbe present
number. "Tom the Tinker," by Robert P.
Nevln, gives tbe blrtory of the famous whisky
war In the weste rn partof Pennsylvania during
the administration of President Washington.
Mr. Cbarles Astor Brlsted discusses inaphllo-
opblcal and impartial manner the dispute
between the advocates of clusalcul and practical
eiv.cailonal theories In his stoond paper on the
"Dispute about Liberal Education." "Vox
.Popmll," by Waison Ambruster, is an inquiry
as to .how far the system of the elective fran
chise exeioscd in this country gives
a full .expression to the voice of tbe
people, "About Strength," by Walter
Wells, baa some sensible suggestions
about physical lralnlng,and"Tne Englishman
as a Natural Curiosity" Is an amusing sketch,
tbe main idea of whloh Is lndloated by the
title. "The Mannerln by Miss Louisa Dorr,
nd "A Photographer's fetory, by Lucy Hamil
ton Honner. are arood short stories, and January
Bearle's sketch, "Of Woodoock and the Hunt
ing of Them," la written in a pleasant vein, xue
poetry Is only so-so, the best piece being "Under
the Pine," Mr. rani H. Hayne's tribute to the
memory of Henry Tlmrod. The "Monthly
Gossip" has some amusing anecdotes and plea,
sant bits of information, but this department la
susceptible ol Improvement. The book reviews
are good, as far as they go, but we would like to
see more attention paid to this department in
m is, as wen as our otoer magazines.
Ptjtmam's Maoazihb. Duffleld Ashmead,
Ne. 724 Chesnut street, sends us the Ootober
number of Putnam'$ Magaein. The table of
contents presents an acceptable variety. "Up

chant, Is on a somewhat trite subjeot; but It Is
well written. "Waiting" is a pleasant little
story of Chicago life, and "The Land of the
Troubadours" gives a fine description of Cannes
and its nelgbborhood. Tb e other contributions
are as follows: "Farther," "St. Beuve, the

Why Pkhdlkton Goiw to Illinois. The
fcitrlngfleid, in.. Journal says: "There is a
rumor on the street, quietly whispered around
among the Copperheads, 'hat Mr. Pendleton is
very much chagrined at General MoClernand's
publication of his private despaioQ noout 'ine
condition of our canvass In Ohio.' He has sent,
It Ih said, a Rtlnglug rebuke to that gentleman
for bis stupidity lu allowing bis telegram to
get Into the newspapers a thing whloh be
never contemplated and wbich has already
bad a most depressing effect upon tbe already
desperate 'condition' of trie Obto Democracy.
Mr. George Bhutt was immediately sent on as
a special envoy to make tbe necessary explana
tions and apologies to Mr. Pendleton, and there
upon, Id order as far as possible to repair
damages, be finally consented under a sort of
protest, to come to Illinois."

The Whisky Punch Kino. The New York
papers recently recorded the death of an extra
ordinary individual, without, however, Riving
any memoir of bin), thoueh his career, in man?
respects, was checkered and remarkable. David
Patullo, or Tat Yewlow, as his Irish friends
called liim tometimee, when Inquiring after his
symposium, varying tbe designation to Pat
You-iDOw, the celebrated WhiBky Punch King,
is the personage alluded to, and lor many years
his fstablishtupnt has been one of the most
uotcd places in New York. It was. In truth, tar
better known than that of the "Wickedest
Mau," and though quite a d rty, or tit possible
more fo, was far more respectable. David dealt
In ademoializing commodity, but be was strictly
respectable, and a man of honor in his transactions.
Da id Patullo was born in the county ol Forfar.
in Scotland, about sixty-one jears aeo. In his
joutb, along with another brother, he was
upprenncea to one Hatcneson, an extensive
grocer and liquor dealer in Us leading town of
Dundee, where, on termination of tbeir appren
ticeship, the two commenced business in the
same capacity, xnty were, however, unsuc
cest-ful; and being a haughty man, David could
not brook tbe idea ol failure. Ho accordingly
told off everjtbirg, and with his brother
migrated to New York about the year 1830.
Here he entered upon the same business, cou
fimng bis operations solely to liquors; but,
though they sold only those of tbe finest quality,
fortune for many years retased to smile upon
tucir enorts. lie conanea nimspn cuieny to
wholesale or family business, and as be never

ellortc Tho younger brother, a man of much
lets decided character, took tbis so seriously to
heart that, in an hour of despondency, he com
muted suicide by cuttiug his throat, and the
oiker teemed upon the point of following his
example, when some kli.oiv neighbors caaae in
to condole with him. it was a cold winter
day. and the poor afflicted man ollered thnm
a glafB of whisky. They suggested the aiditiou
ot a little hot water, and David thereupon male
a class ot such whitky punch as they had never,
iu the whole course of their lives, tasted before.
It was the genuine Usquebaugh Glentivat, or
Farintosb, wholly unadulterated, and they not
oiJy smacked their lips alter dtiDking it but
requested another glas?. David made it, but
relused to accept any pay. Next day they re.
turned and requested a repetition of the dose.
David again complied, and again was for taking
uo money. But they insisted on paying, thouga
he would accept no more than the cost of tho
ingredients. Day after day. however, thev re
turned, and bi ought others with tbetu. Patullo.
at their suggestion, made a slight addition to

tton of the celebrated "Cobweb Hall." as his
establishment was called in consequence of its
nun, ana ine fortune ot tuny tive hundred tbou
sand dollars which its recent proprietor has

Patullo soon added to his whiekvstore liaaors
of every description, and there the public was
sure oi obtaining tbe commodity unadulterated.
wnn a etrange perversity, nowever, ne now
gave up the family trade and dealt sol el v in the
retail business, n; very species ot alcoholic pro
duction was to be had on his premises, and all
of tbe purest description. Bdt he was not a
good judge or any liquor except whisky and ale.
Hence his wines and brandies were of au in
lerior order, and the former indeed were rarely
called lor by the rough customers who fre
quented his bur. Whisky and ale were what
they called for, and at half-price thsy obtained
both, in a style superior to that presented at
any other establishment in the city. Neither
the Astor House, the Fif h Avenue Hotel, nnr
the fctt. Nicholas could produce such a glass of
wuisay puncn as uavia aia, aua hence aristo
cratic cuBtomeis from each daily came down to
taste ms beverage an honor which he received
with grim sattslactlon, as he insisted ou their
takiDg their places along with the other cub
tomera, dirty euoueh. at his bar.
A lew years ago his original den was bnrneJ
down, in consequence ot a tire In the neighbor
hood, and David removed to larger premises,
but still kept them dirty as ever. He was per
suaded, however, now to add a few chairs to
tfce place for his customers hitherto. If rltMlr.niH

host of friends at least, for some valuable public
services rendered, or some fascinating society
long enjoyed. On inquiry, however, we Uarned
that it was a present from David Patullo to
David Patullo himself, for, always somewhat
cynical, he eventually became Intensely selfish.
The only other subjects that engrossed his
attention were one or two sulky and savage
dogs, which invariably were kept on the
premises for the purpose of keeping disorderly
customers in awe. One of them was a Russian
blood-houDd, for which Baruum had given him
a hh?h prize, with a view, it was supposed, of
attempting to get on his blind side. Bat David,
though proud of the bauble, was not to be
hoodwinked, and the great showman's advances
ware repel led, as warejthose of almost every other
person. He had now become intensely
misanthropical, and the collar of the other dog
bore the inscription: "I am D. Patullo's dog,
pray whose dog are you ?"
David, It bas already been mentioned, was an
ardent Democrat. Like too many of his country -men,
more especially the English, he signalized
or disgraced hioisclt by coming over from a free,
or nominally free, country, to give In bis
adhesion to slavery here. He took, as already
stated, Abraham Lincoln's first election so
seriously to heart as to threaten to leave the
country in the event of its repetition, and he
was so proud that he steadfastly kept bis word.

Duane street, where a few days ago he died,

while seeing tbe sights, drank a little too much
of whisky. He wandered through the streets,
and at 3 o'clock this morning found himself at
Eighth and Walnut streets. He then started for
the hotel, at which he was stopping, but on
reaching Dupouccau street was knocked down
and robbed ot a watch and $20 in money. Cor
nelius Dover was arrested shortly atter on the
charge of b.lng Implicated, and being identified

Un Wednesday last William Unfc wasroboed
of Lis pocket book, containing $15, ou llirard

the article the thief ran, and, being closely
pursued, threw the book and money over a
neighboring fence. It was recovered, and John
Whalen was afterwards arrested for committing
the theft. He was held to answer by Alderman
Hood.
Considerable excitement was caused in the
early part of the week in the northern part of
tbe Twenty-fourth Ward by the disappearance
of Henry alarr, aged seven years, from the home
of his father, Zachariah llarr. Tbe police
were notified of the fact, and policeman Bartle
mas, ot the Ninth District, was intrusted with
the matter. He obtained some clae of the
child, and yesterday morning louod him at the
house ot Robert Paist, in Delaware county,
about four miles from Morgan's Comer. Being
called to an account, Mr. Paist stated that he
bad picked np the little lellow off tbe road near
his residence, and had taken him in charge, with
the expectation of seeing blm advertised in tbe
papers. The policeman, on arriving in the city,
arrested a man named Lutz. on the charge of
abduction. Lutz Is the driver of a milk
wspon, and it is alleged took tbe child In his
vehicle on tbe pretense of giving hiin a ride,
and after driving blm around put him out on
