Have now been before the public for nearly a year.
They are universally pronounced the neatest and best
fitting collars extant.
The upper edge presents a perfect cure, free from the
angles noticed in all other collars.
The cravat causes no puckers ou the inside of the turn
down collar—they ore AS SMOOTH INSIDE AS OUT
SIDE—and therefore perfectly free and easy to the neck.
The Garotte Collar has a smooth and evenly-finished
edge on BOTH SIDES.
These . Collars are not simply flat pieces of paper out
in the form of a collar, but are MOULDED AND SHAPED
TO :FIT THE NECK.
They are made in "Novelty" (or turn-down style,)
in every half size from 12 to 17 inches, and in " Eu
reka" (or Garotte, ) from 13 to 17 inches, and Packed. in
"solid sizes," in neat blue cartoons, containglooeach:
also, in smaller ones of 13 each—the latter a very handy
package for Travellers, Army and Navy Officers.

NEW Yonic, May 14, HU
ATTREMENSIONS OF EPIDEMICS.
The rapid approach of the heated term seems to
have excited very grave apprehensions as to the
sanitary, or rather the In-sanitary condition in
which the city will be found upon its absolute arri
val. Yearly we have our temporary excitements
upon this subject ; the press teems with communica
tions from apprehensive citizens, and printed refer
ence to those eternal nuisances, those fat-boiling,"
and bone-boiling, and Ole-boiling establishments,
which, founded in the upper pdrtion of the city,
drench the atmosphere with vapors composite in
their nastiness, and suggestive of endemics and epi
demics,
New York is, perhaps, the filthiest of Eastern
cities. Its outskirts are so many cauldrons express
ing kerosene and petroleum fumes • itself a retort
in which all that is noisome and offensive is subil
mated and puffed out into an atmosphere never too
pure. Its foreign population, as a general rule,
never washes. If there are exceptional cases, the im
pure water is immediately deposited with care upon
some brick sidewalk, where it may steam itself away
through long and intolerable hours of fervid heat.
Every by-street le a literal Pandora's boa, pouring
out feOld curses. The respectable man who slinks
through them at mid-day puffs his cigar with the
hope of destroying the Corpuscular infection, and
moves through them with the same alert step as if
he were in some plague-smitten Smyrna alid fearful
of the touch of contagion, instead of being an in
habitant of this dear, unromantic, Democratic city,
with its riots, its gold fevers, and its eontemptS of
court.
xt is in vain that we are taxed exorbitantly for
street cleaning ; in vain that daily protestations are
entered, and monitions given by timid and sensitive
citizens. It is always the same a reeking summer
in filthy thorontrhfares, with slime and stagnant Cor
ruption here, there, and everywhere. At present
there is seine talk of reform. Warnings are served
upon the proprietors of bone and fat-boiling es
tablishments i corporation nOtin.gal are consulted;
the Board of Health creaks a little in the high wind
of public expostulation. In brief, it is the old, in
toltable, three/113am atOrSr d'ildergOinp; its periodical
reiteration. There is some consolation, however, in
the words of the poet :
If man returns to dirt, as we all know.
Flew Yorkers won't, have very far to go. "
In the meantime we must suffer.
A SPECIMEN OF ErTYTATIIVE 210ILTITNI?
An item, inveighing against the extravagance of
one of our citizens, and referring especially to a
stable which cost him a small fortune, has been
so extensively copied through the country that a
slight mention of the gentleman In question may
not be uninteresting. About two years ago this in
dividual appeared in the city in a condition of
lamentable impecuniosity. lie was the undisputed
owner of twenty-five dollars—nothing more. How
ever, to him, as to others, •Fortune changed her face.
By fortunate strokes and• persistent endeavors, ren
dered singularly etreetual•by his natural sharpness,
and that prehensile quality of the mind which en
ables one to seize opportunities at a fitting moment
for their subjection, he won his way to affluence.
His wealth is now estimated at five millions.
The stable occupies the - lower portion of a large
building, and is, of course, properly arranged for
purposes of equine comfort. Over it is a bijou
theatre, fitted up in the most complete manner pos
sible, with.ali requisite appliances. Here, almost
periodically, are given representations, not only by
the amateur stars •of exclusive circles, but by genu
ine professionals, who essay the leading roles, and
give coherency where incoherency might otherwise
result. The price of tickets is five dollars, and it is
said that the average proceeds of the entertain
ments will not fall tar below the very handsome
sum of three thousand dollars. This amount is im
mediately remitted to the Sanitary Commission
fund. Of. cOursc, the tickets never find their way
outside the pechliar circles.... The audiences are,
therefore, strictly select.
The gentleman is noted for his benevolence
towards all patriotic objects,. and has never been
backward in making sacrifices when they seemed
requisite for forwarding the good cause. }ES name,
with which the public is thoroughly familiar, cannot
be mentioned here with propriety.
IME=
A most singular and underhanded arr,st, se the
papers claim, was perpetrated on Wednesday, in
Broadway. The victim was Seiler Argitelle, lately
a colonel in the Spanish service, and a recent arri
val Irma Cuba. Some days ago, the Tiered eon
twined a somewhat lengthy card from his pen, in re
lation 4,dy the Governor-General of. Cuba, and the
slave , trade with that island. Tanis La Croaica, a
New York paper printed in Spanish, took excep
tion, 'and espoused the cause of the Governor Gene
ral. 3Vhat the dispute is about, perhaps none others
than the Senor and the editor of La Cronica exactly
comprehend. The former was at one time the Go
vernor of Colon, and, it is rumored, is in possession
of important facts regarding slave traffic with Cuba.
As before stated, however, the arrest appears to
have been singular and underhanded; and, at the
time of penning this paragraph, nothing but unsub-
Stet/tall rumor can be appealed to for explanation.
It is said that Senor Arg-uellewas arrested without
any authority whatever, by persons claiming to act
under commission from United States Marshal
Murray. Another report claims that a demand for
his arrest and delivery in custody was made on
the authorities at Washington, by the Governor
General of Cuba, ; that, thereupon, these functiona
ries communicated the appropriate order to the
Marshal. As to the method of his disposition, ac
counts arc Similarly conflicting. I!:,ldridge-street
jail is by some assigned as the mite of his inear
ceration ; others suggest that he has been placed
upon a vessel bound to Cuba.
The resident Spaniards are much excited upon
the subject, and are using' every endeavor to ferret
out the mystery. Application has" been Made to the
grand jury tor an investigation of the matter, and
the indictment of any who may have been wrong
fully engaged in what they consider as an ontra. , e.
The affairpromises to result in a sensation, if in
'
nothim , erne • and the speedy action which the
friends of the' Seiler have initiated seems to indi
cate that there may be subjects of snore than tran
sient interest involved in the developments which
they are so anxious to bring about.
The sense of all that has yet been gleaned from
them seems to be that the Governor General has
compromised himself in some matter,_ and conse
quently deeircs personal supervision of the gentle•
man who, in his ease, knows more than is desirable.
STUYVESANT.
THE REBEL PLANS.
Intercepted Letter from a Member of the
Rebel Congress
- Rion - Atom), Jan. 16, 1864.
Hon. J. B. Hancock;
DEAR SIR : . . . The presenthourlooks gloomy,
to be sure ; but, like yourself, I believe in ultimate
success. To give us this success, we want to strike
an effective blow early in the spring. This will set
us on our legs again. Doubtless the Federals wilt
open the campaign by moving a heavy column on At
lanta, Ga. at the same time a heavy one from Knox
ville t in the direction of Southwestern Virginia and
fforthern North Carolina.
This latter, if not repelled, will force upon Gene
ral Lee the necessity of falling back from his present
position, it may be from Richmond and almost en
tirely from Virginia, to prevent himself from being
flanked and his army from being entirely disbanded
or destroyed. You can see at once, if this movement
he allowed to sueeeed, that these consettlAnCOS Must
follow. This portion of Virginia is now pretty well
eaten out, and if Lee's army . were cut off from the
South it could not be provisioned for three months.
Pressed in front and harassed in rear, with pro
visions exhausted, disbandment and destruction
mast follow.
Then it becomes a matter of the first moment to
guard the rear of the Army of the Potomac. •
Should the movement upon Atlanta succeed,, then
Georgia u-ill be laid tedste, and our chief source Ott
present) of provisions will be cut off. No one Can
look forward to spring without great apprehen
sions. Doubtless our severest trials will then be upon
us. If we sustain ourselves, or, more, if we gain
any signal advantage over tho enemy soon, after the
opening of the-campaign we may give the opposi
tion element of the North a chance to combine and
beat Lincoln for President. This I should hail as a
good omen, and begin to think of peace at no very
distant day. I see no chance for peace until the
Republican party is beaten and overcome. In the
meantime things are assuming a more unfavorable
aspect in North Carolina. Her course is deeply hu
miliating to every patriotic heart.
congress is laboring diligently to strengthen our
army, and improve our currency. I hope we shall
succeed materially in accomplishing both them
ends. The remedy is a severe one ; but the disease
is desperate, and no silly nostrum will answer. The
cause is the people's, and they must sustain it at all
hazards, and the Representative who falters in this
hour of trial is not worthy of contidence. I would
tell you what measures we are likely to adopt, but
that would be contraband ; our proceedings are in
secret session.
As over, your friend, most truly
O. R. SINGLETON.
INTERCEPTED LETTIM FROM THE cat EV CLERK OP
Tnn n.En.P.I. WAR. DEPARTMENT,
CONFEDERATE STATES OF AMERICA,
WAR DEPARTMENT, RICHMOND, April 19,1864.
My Dr Fatuun : The reason of my not answer
ing your letter of the 2d inst. before is that I could
not do so without violating the regulations of the
department. Indeed, I cannot give the information
you desire now without transgressing the rules ; but,
knOwina your patriotism and discretion, I shall ven
ture to do so. .
General Lee's plans are perfected, and the Presi
dent, Secretary, and even grumbling 8., are de
lighted with them ; and it only remains for the do
partments and bureaus to carry out their parts of
them. Your conjecture that the scat of war will be
transferred to the North is correct, and you may do
pend that this time General Lee will go prepared
to remain there until the Yankees sue for peace.
The intention is to give him one hundred and fifty
thousand men. The troops will be withdrawn front
MilllS of minor importance, and, as Charleston and
iifibile are no longer in danger, the troops near those
points can be spared also, so that there will be no diffi
culty in giving him the required number of men. He
has at hand snore than two-thirds the number now, and
aware hurrying up others from every direction.
Enough will be left in and around the city to de
fend it if assailed via the Peninsula, and enough to
confront Meade and to keep him north of the-North
Anna, or, at all events, north of the South Anna,
while Lee will make a flank movement an(l push two
columns northward, both Longstroet and Stuart
going witls Lim. These, in brief, are the plans Tor
the summer campaign, and they will surely be ear.

But whatever may be the determination of the
enemy, there will be no change nor let-up in the re
solve of this army, of its commanders, and of the
head of all the armies of the United States. That
resolve is to pit the matter through, cost what it May.
In doing this we shall add to the already appalling
list of losses we have experienced in this unparal
leled battle of eight days' duration, but we shall
end by crushing the enemy to powder.
While writing, firing has ceased along the whole
line, and it is probable that the contest is concluded
for the day. The rebel Gen. Johnson, captured
this morning, gives the following explanation of
how the rebel right flank came to be turned this
morning: That flank was held by the division of
Johnson, who had a very strong position. Yester
day, however. a battery which had been planted on
this position 'was taken away by his superiors in
command. Johnson, at. 1. o'clock this morning,
sent word requesting the return of the "battery and.
may other artillery there might be to spare, and ex
pressing his convictionthat the enemy (we) would
Mahe an attempt on the right at, daybreak. The
battery was returned to him, but 100 late, and he
was just getting it into position when Hancock
made his attack.
. . .
Gen. Johnson ,has played an impprtantpart in
late operations. It was he that punished Griffin's
division so badly on Thursday, and ivho turned our
right on Friday night, capturing Gen. Seymour.
The question of the death of Gen, Wadsworth is at
length settled. A rebel captain was taken to-day
who helped to bury him, and who took his official
Papers from his person.
It appears that, in order to keep up the spirite of
his army, Leo has been telling. his men, through
proclamations, that Butler, Sherman, Sze., have
been thoroughly whipped. When they raid out the
truth, what will they think of itl

Tug BATTLE OP aPOTTSYL*ANIA COURT 1101fak.
lIKADQVAIITRUS ARMY of TER POTOMAC,
HEAIt SPOTTRYLVARIA COURT 11OURR,
Thursday, May 12.
Let the twelfth day of May he written in the
calendar as one of the fasts or the Republic, for It
marks the date of ono of the deadliest and most de
cisive struggles and one of the most brilliant victo
ries of the war. Knowing* the ebbs and flows of bat
tle, I refrain from attempting to anticipate what the
after hours of to-day may bring forth; but if victory
continues to smile on this army as it has up to this
hour-2 P. M.—to-night will see the greatest army
Of the rebellion not merely beaten, but destroyed.
Hancock this morning, by a splendid assault, turned
the enemy's right flank, carried both their lines of
breastworits, captured forty-two pieces of artillery,
and from 5,000 to 7,000 prisoners, and is now rolling
up their line. The other corps have joined in and
engaged in furious battle, which continues et the
hour of writing. In the impossibility of at present
obtaining accurate details, and desirous of sending
the outlines of the battle at the earliest moment,
transmit the rough jotting of my note-book, which
Must stand until a full recital can he written out.
Six O'CLOCK A. M.—At midnight last night Han
cock with his corps changed from his position on the
extreme right, and went in on the left of the line
between the oth ;Corps and Eurrisidels,- where
there had been a gap. At five o'clock this morning
he assaulted the enemy's position, carried their
second line of breastworks, and turned the right
flank of the rebels. It was a complete surprise, fa
vored by a mist, which concealed our movements.
He has taken 3,000 prisoners and three generals,
namely, Gen. Stuart, commanding a brigade in
Gen. Johnson's division of Ewell's corps ; Major
Gen. Johnson commander, and another Gen. .Tblm
son, command'in'g a brigade. This is entirely reli
able, as 1 have just heard the despatch conveying
the joyful intelligence read aloud by the chief-of
stall.
Everybody is in the best of spirits. The enemy,
had not been expecting an attack On their right, as
our reconnoissance of yesterday on the left seemed
to indicate that as our point of assault.
Hancock's glorious success, if sustained, will solve
a very difficult problem, as the rebels had fortified
their powerful position in front of Spottsylvanitt
Court House so strongly that an attempt to carry it
in front must have been attended with Immense loss
of life.
The intelligence from Sheridan's cavalry raid,
brought by a scout last night, shows that he has had
the most complete success. He destroyed ten miles
of the Orange and Gordonsville Railroad—the line
on which Lee has mainly depended for his supplies—
and destroyed three trains of ears and a large
amount of supplies. He took several pieces of ar
tillery, and recaptured five hundred of our prisoners,
erelong, them two_ colonels, whom the rebels were
lugging oft' to Richmond. •
bIX-ruling A. 111.—The magnitude of Hancock's
victory rolls up, as its full proportions become
known. He has captured Pslaj. Gen. .Johnson's en
tire division of Ewell's corps, numbering 3,000 men,
and ho has also taken twenty or thirty cannon up to
this hour.
.;SEvsm A.M.—A most interesting scene is now be
fore us at headquarters. Major General Ed John
son, who, with his whole division,was captured this
morning, has just been brought , under charge of
an officer, to headquarters in the woods, where Ge
nerals Grant and Meade and their stalls are seated
around a bivouac fire. General Meade, who had
been an old friend of General .Tohnson, shook hands
with him and introduced him to General Grant.
"Formerly of the 6th Infantry inquires the
Lieutenant General. "Yes," replies the rebel Ge
neral ; "you were of the 4th, and we were both in
the same brigade." Of coure, military etiquette
precluded any other inquiries than those of a purely
personal character. To the question whether Gene
ral - Wadsworth was dead, he replied that such was
his belief, though. he was not positive. Ourgeno
rals, Seymour and Shaler, who were captured in the
battle of the Wilderness, he had yesterday seen at
Lee's headquarters. Longstreet he reports as so
rereiy but not mortally wounded. Almost all the
staff appear to has, been o.la friends and acquaint
ances of Johnson, and numerous mutual inquiries
in regard to old army comrades are being made.
General Hunt, Chief of Artillery, when lie met
him, hail a mind to make a set speech, but the old
familiar formula, "Ed , I am glad to roe you," Came
out in a salutation to which Johnson replied
"Well, Hunt, under the circumstances, I am not
glad to see you." He spoke of the abomination of
such a country as the Wilderness to fight in ; spoke
of the capture of his division, but said, with a quiet,
good-natured manner, that we would have a hot
time of it yet. Johnson is a stout-built fellow, with
a strong, rough ince, but his dress is in bad condi
tion, and his slouched hat, with his brownish gray
hair . sticking out through . an aperture at the top, is
such as even a New York Dead Rabbit would scorn
to sport.
An aid who has just come in from General Han
cock's headquarters says that when 'the captured
General Stuart—G. 1-I.—was brought in, Hancock
extended his hand but the high-born captive drew
back, saying that Phis feelings would not allow him
to shake hands"—an incident whiehhas just created
a merry laugh at headquarters. •
SEVICK , TMILTY.—Hancock's fight continues, and
- Warren is going in. A furious rain-storm is falling,
and the thunderof the heavens - mingles with the roar
of artillery and the rattling volleys of small arms
in a way impessible to discriminate which is which.
The country is somewhat more open here than in the
Wilderness, and permits the use of artillery, which
has been plentifully placed in commanding positions'
all along the line.
- Warren's corps, forming the centre of our line of
battle, is now briskly engaged. No reports as yet
of his prowess. The rebels have opened their bat
teries, and the headquarters of Generals Grant and
Meade are being vigorously shelled. In riding
along, we encountered on all hands the proofs of the
bloody work that has been going on for the past four
hours. From every path through the woods wound
ed men emerging, some In ambulances, some on
stretchers, sonic supported by their companions,
and many poor fellows with every variety of fright,-
fill wounds hobbling along supported by rude
clutches, Improvised from breeches of trees. On
reaching Hancock's headquarters we find his roe
cess has been growing steadily and his captures con
stantly rolling up. lie has taken forty-two pieces
of artillery, and already seven thousand prisoners
reported. A score or more of - the captured guns
are lying in a field at our new headquarters—a
pleasant sight to see. They aro 12-pound Napo
leons, Rodinans, and 10-pound Parrotts, their rude
throats blackened in their deadly work,
T V.IT A. M.—The whole line to now engaged, In
cluding the corps of Warren's sth, of Wright's 6th,
of Hancock's 2d, and of Burnside's 9th. From the
present position of headquarters, which is near
enough to be under fire, we can distinguish Burn
side's and Hancock , s line of battle in our front, and
Wright and Warren stretched off to the right. it i 9
too densely wooded to see the manoeuvres,or even
the line of battle, but we mark the lino by lse mar
gins of smoke rising , up above the trees, and the
flashes Of the artillery.
Er.rvun O'Ci.ncx.—There Is a Inn along the line,
with the exception of a vigorous cannonading, which
continues. The rebels have been fighting with an
obstinacy that challenges the name of sublime, and
Lee has been putting forth his best powers. The
`situation at this hour leaves our Bile holding all the
ground they have gained, but they arc not now ad
vancing. The men are excessively latig - uod, awl It
is now somewhat doubtful whether the issue can be
decided in to-day's battle.
TwithvE M.—The rain has ceased, and the sun
has just.burst forth. May it be another sun of Aus
terlitz Burnside, who has hitherto had but one di
vision (Potter's) of his corps engaged, is ordered
to make an attack with his whole force. The left
has been the cardinal point ever since Hancoek.'l,
turning_movement.
ONE . P. M.—As Warren's attack on the right did
Hot succeed, our; right wing is being retired or
drawn back, and Meade is massing more on the
left, where a vigorous attack is again being- made,
with very heavy musketry and artillery fire. Han
cock has turned a number of the rebel captured
guns against the enemy.
Two P.M.—lt has been impossible yet to dislodge
the rebels, who hold their position most stubbornly.
Lee has reformed his left on a strong position, and
his line is covered all along by breastworks. A. tre
mendous cannonade Is now being mule for the pur
pose on the enemy's position. Though victory now
ri F tre " itli
e liell u v ill et?o t - i cra t y. be A l e i T r e=s l
will fight to the last, and have already in the won
derful eight days , Battle of the Wilderness—of
which this is but a continuation—made good all the
boasts over made of their prowess. They will really
die in the last ditch, and only then. They are, how
ever, now out of supplies, their rations having, ac
cording to the statements of prisoners, been ex
hausted last night, and if Sheridan's destruction of
their communications has been as complete as is
believed at headquarter, they will be able to get no
more. Quito a number or deserters have come in
from all the corps and they say if there is a chance
many more may be expected to-night.
Of our losses thus far during this day's severe bat
tle it is impossible to form anything like an accu
rate estimate ; but they must be extremely heavy.
The losses of officers are also very groat, but I forbear
to mention names until the filets are :placed beyond
dispute. General Wright, commanding the 6th
Corps, was this morning wounded In the soft part of
the leg, but stilicontlnued to command.

REIM OilWien Awn LOYAL FAOTA.—Ten dart
ago, in the extreme dearth of news from Grant's
army, we copied into these columns, from the Rink
m ond Enquirer, some speculations as to the strategy
of Nitycainpaig,n then pending, The extract given
With ffolll aye of correspondent writh g from 'within
Lee's Hoes at Orange Court House, lt-is worth re
produOing, now that Grant's strategy has, been un
folded :
"The onnmonly received opinion that Grant will
attack Gen. Lee in front and in his iortifiesitlons is
erroneous. ke will seek to turn the flank of our army,
and his poTioy to, evidently, to retain his present
position until his organization and enuliment be
thorouoay acmroplished, and then, by sud4enly,ua
fold log his strategy, to reurprise Gen. Leis. lie may
:north rapidly and without announcement either to
some. point of cr3soing. the. Rapidan or Rappahan
nock, or to Port Repulditi, thence to Stamingno
thrice to Lynelib t
.T.taink an alien - int to flank an
the east mere prob,ble ; his army croretny , at some of
the Lower fords of Ore Rappahannock. This, how
ever;,is all conjecture; and but the Cone or Washing

This rebel writer hid more accurate conceptions
than aeneral Lee. 1-Cis eenjc.etwres were right.—
