The Bodleian Libritry, at Oxford, has just got another treasure in the shape of a new autograph Of Shakspeare. It is written in faded ink on the titl&pago of a small octavo Aldine edition of si Ovid's Metamorphoses," (1602) The signature Is abridged into "Wm. Shr." The .dthenaum adds that "It is at once evident that, unless it is a forgery, the hand which wrote it was that which gigned the will of Shakspeare ;" and the signature Is corroborated by that of the owner in 1082, who has Prritten within the cover : "This little book of Ovid NveS given to me by W. Ball, who sayd It was once Shakspearel." The London Review publishes a letter from Dr. William Bell, the object of which Is to show that Shakspeare was In Germany during what are called •' the three missing years of his life," viz., from 16843 to 1582, and that he there attained some knowledge of the German language, and found in old German dramas and legends the materials for many of his plays. —The Bishop of Orleans' pamphlet on the en eyolloal has had an immense sale, and the papers which extracted copiously from It also had an int- Mouse circulation—the Gazette de France laming double its usual number one day upon this account. —Ristori is making quite a sensation at Athens, and has gone through her whole repertory of classic Impersonations, beginning with Medea and ending With Pyrl.ha.

Fashions for February. 'arum Le Bullet.] The question of moat interest on the subject of fashion for this month is the style in vogue for ball and evening dress. Amongst the novelties we re mark robes of gauze embroidered in gold, or silver, or silk. Nothing is prettier than such flowers on a light vapory malarial, and ladies of elegance can wear such a dress without appearing to be dressed In too simple or girlish a manner. There are some beautiful tulle dresses spotted over with butterflies, or flowers formed of feathery, or with silver arrows, very original and exceedingly elegant, but although rieedbfg no trimming they are expensive. Fiches, berthas, and pelerines are made in a variety orrery becoming styles. For atehome toilette, ohemisettes are more than over fashionable, for now, with the Russian veste, it is not merely the gaimpe, bat the sleeves also which are required. Many white bodies Without vestes are worn at small soirees or social dinner parties, and with a light silk skirt look eX ceedingly,pell ; but (rare must be taken that the color of the ribbon placed under the insertion, with which these bodies are is trimmed, suits the skirt,. Passementerle is still the favorite trimming, and deservedly to, for certainly nothing can be more elegant. There is nothing new to notice either in the form Or the materials for bonnets.' It seems to be univer sally admitted that the present style is much more becoming than the high-fronted bonnets were ; yet It must be confessed that the absurd heed.dresses made by some, and called bonnets, are quite as lit tle becoming, and have, besides, an air of vulgarity. Coiffures for evening costume are becoming more and more varied and for this good reason, that ladles are beginning to adopt those styles most be coming to them rather than to wear a head-dress because It is worn by others. Perhaps the coiffure composed of bands of velvet is the most universally adopted ; and, from the fact that it may be fastened Simply with diver or jet ornaments, or enriched with agraffes or pins of diamonds, it is equally ap plicable either for a quiet dinner dress or for a more elaborate toilette. Tnoso of llghthine velvet should have pearl or silver ornaments, and those of llbn teen velvet gold or pearl ornaments. Another pretty style of head.aress is made with a pea' formed with ends of green velvet, worked with dew drops in crystal, and fastened with two long ends. A charming Cer es wreath was made of bine-velvet myosotis and silver-corn ears, fastened at the back With long bows of silver lace. SAVINGS FUNDS IN Featoce.—The Moniteur publishes a report addressed to the Emperor by the Minister of . Uoinmerce, Agriculture, and Paella Works, giving a detailed account of the operation of the savings-banks of France during the year end ing December 81,1869.Fr0m this doeument, which Alla five columns of the omalal journal, it appears that the number of such establishments was 478 at the beginning of 1883, and 485 at the Close; connected with these are 392 branch banks, of whioh 73 were opened during the year. The expenses of management were 1,627,999 t, being 90,166 f., or about 6.23 per cent. more than In 1862. After deducting those expenses, the proper lends of the banks amounted to 12,038,2251., be ing 711,66.41. more than in 1862. The number of depositors has increased from 1,379,292 to 1,471,247, or about 6.68 per tient. The new ac counts opened in 1863 were 15,249 more than in 1662, and the average number of depositors for each bank was 3,150, against 3,064 in the preceding year. On the whole population of France there was one depositor in 25 during 1868, while there was only 1 in 21 in 1862. The proportion of depositors to the population Is the greatest in the department of the Seine, and the least In the Arrlege, being 1 in 8 in the former, and 1 in 221 in the latter. The depositors have increased In all the prin cipal banks except five, and In think) the failing off is trilling. The total amount due to depositors at the end of 1863 was 447,977,814 f., showing an increase during the year of 23,767,051 t., or about kg per cent. There are 1.098,192 amounts of 500 r. and under, 180,- 924 between 501 f. and 8001.; 110,173 between 801 f. and 1,0001., and . 82,768 above 1,900 f. with regard to the 1.001161 position of the depositors, 83,350 are artisans and laborers, 39,510 domestic servants, 11,675 clerks and Shopmen, 7,068 sailors and soldiers, 55,218 of 'various professions, 40,563 minors, and 829 mutual benefit societies.

The silk flag that was presented to the city by the crew of the sloop•of.war Hartford waved from the flagstaff on Independence Hall. All the newspaper offices, pab lio buildings, club houses hotels, and many private residences and places of business were gaily fee• Looped with flags. A beautiful display was made at the store of Mr. Patton, on Chestnut street, west of Broad. susrinistow OP BUSINESS. There was a general suspension of business yes terday. All the public institutions, banks, brokers' offices, the row offices Corn Exchange, and other places wore closed during the entire day. In the afternoon most of the stores were closed, and Chest nut street was thronged with people. Thereseemed to be as many bright eyes and merry hearts as ever we SSW on a Christmas day. The joyful ringing of the church bells enlivened every one. St. Peter's, and other churches having chimes of bells played patriotic airs at intervals, anirthere was joy and excitement everywhere. It was just the kind of a celebration of Washington's birthday that to our minds we ought always to have bad. It has been_heretofore a merely nominal holi day. It is to be hoped that hereafter a proper ob servance 01 it will be maintained. During the evening a number of private resi dences and stores were Illuminated. SOLDIERS OF THB NAB OF 1812. The rogullit meeting of the veterans of the War of 1812 was held In the morning in the Supreme Court room. The i gtentlanee was larger than at any of the former etings, the room being pretty well filled. Alderman Peter Hay, president of the association, was in the chair, and John U. Frick, Esq., the secretary was at his post. lilessrs. William Bowman, Thomas Wallace, and Daniel Smith were elected members of the assn. elation. Colonel C. G. Childs, am behalf of the Egeoutisie Committee, submitted a sories:of resolutions, which were Seconded by Colonel J. ROES Snowden ; and were unanimously adopted. They are as follows; Resolved, That we rejoice that a kind Providence has permitted so many of the association to assemble on this day, ibe anniversary of the birth of the Father of his Country. and here in this sacred spot, to renew oar pledges to the Union and the Constitution as established by the fathers of the Republic Resolved, That a, time rolls around, the momory of Washington increasee in lustre and brightness. He te now as ever, " First in War, First in Peace. and First in the Hearts of his Countrymen." .Resotted, That we cannot too often recur to ghe pa ternal and patriotic sentiments of Washinsten, as pre sented in his Farewell Address, and that it is appro priate that it should be read on this occasion. Resolved, That Colonel Robert Carr be requested to read the Farewell Address. • Resolved, That the brave men.composing the Union armies, who have fought battles unparalleled is the annals of war. are entitled to the thanks of the country ; that a 'potion of the public domain should be greeted to them; because witnout their aid this accursed re hellion would not have been quelled, and treason would have triumphed over the Onion and the Consti tution. Resolved, That while we accord all honor to the gallant men composing the Union army, wo believe that toe Old Soldiers of the War of 1812. (so few of whom are now lett), should not be forgotten by Congress and our own State, but that some aid mould be granted to these men to assist them In their declining years. Resolved, That our thanks aro especially dae to the soldiers of OUT own Slate, who have on ail occasions been among the foremost in upholding our flag, first Bang to the breeze in Philadelphia. and planted It above the clouds on Lookout Mountain. Resolved, That the present aspect of oar national af fairs indicates that peace will soon be restored, and that we shall 'emerge from thetcontest a greater, wiser, and happier nation—no star blotted out from oar great MA dome ling, but Unica cemented by ihe blood or so many brave men: and our country will continue to afford en asylum for the oppressed and down-trodden of all nations. 001. John S. Warner offered the following: Reaotecd, That Congress be strongly urged to take the necessary measures to ascertain the amount of losses sustained through the unfriendly conduct of Great Britain, and to demand a prompt and ample retannera • ton from that Government This resolution was laid upon the table. 001. Robert Oarr then read Washington's Fare- well Address. The 'fleeting then adjourned CELEBRATION .akT THE POLYTECHNIC COLLEGE. The day was approprately observed at the Poly technic College, Weil Penn Square. The large lecture room of the Institution was gaily decorated with flags, and a large number of la4:11e8 and gen tlefhen assembled there. The exercises commenced at half past ten Welook, and were opened by the reading of Washington's Farewell Address by Mr. W. G. McDowell, a sta. dent of the School of alines. Mr. Orlando Harvey, or Chester, a student of the Scientific Sohool, then delivered the oration. TUB DAY AT TUB MILITARY HOSPITALS. At many of the Foldigra' hospitals the day was appropriately celebrated. At the hospital at Six teenth and Filbert streets Washington's Farewell Address was read by Corporal• James Cowan, and addresses were delivered by Corporal Geo. Walsh ington Miller, Sergeant Shumeray, and Rev. a.. G. Thomas, chaplain of the hospital, The exercises were interspersed with excellentlnuelc. At the hos pital at Tifenty-thitd and. Filbert streets, in the evening, a pleasant occasion was enjoyed In the shape of a concert by the Cecilia Orchestra. Solos, duets, and °homes constituted the entertainment. TIM lIKOHANIOB 1 IXIBTITIITH OH' BOIITHWAHR. The managers of the Mechanics' Institute of Southwark have entirely refitted their ball, and last evening it was formally opened. The object of the Institution Is to afford a respectable place for young pen to visit in the evenings, where the prin cipal papers, magazines, and reviews can be con sulted and general information obtained from books in the library. At the opening last evening addresses were made by a number of distinguished gentlemen, amongst them Henry R. Edmunds. who d'elivered an oration on Washington, Colonel Philip S. White, Mr. Robert Briggs, president of the Institute, and Rev. John Moore. The speaking was largely inter spersed with music by an efficient orchestra. This Institute bids fair to be mach better than it was even In its former most prosperous days. It is proposed to have a gymnasium attached to the In stitution. Such an addition would prove probably much more attractive to many young men than the choicest collection of books and papers. IifBANKLER'S VETREURS. • In the afternoon the veterans reoruited by Chief Franklin for Gen. liancook's Ist Army Corps made a streetparade. They halted in front of Independ• sneeliMl, where they went through military evolu tions in a style that could only be accomplished by men of experience. They met with applause on the part of a dense mass of people who thronged the street. AN APPEAL TO PATRIOTIC BENEVOLENCE. Among the many attractions in this oily, few present more claims to the consideration of Phila. delphians that the grand and patriotic fair now in progress at Concert hell, In aid of that great local institution, the "Citizens ' Volunteer llospital, ,, at Broad and Prime streets, organized at a period when the public, mind was entirely unaccustomed to war and Its attendant suffering. It hilly sup plied a manifest but unavoidable deficiency, and so plain was Its utility and usefulness that our °Mune and neighbors generously sustained the efforts of Its originators. Whenever assistance has been needed they Aave -Invariably responded to the appeal of thar hoard of managers with praise worthy liberality; and the object of the fair now being held by the ladles of this institu tion le to replenish the treasury, in anticipa tion of the impending struggle which will pro bably end this gigantic rebellion, and remove the dark cloud that now shadows with its gloom the bright scintillation of several stars in the galaxy of freedom. Many brave patriots will fall on the bloody field, and the hospitals receive large num bers of wounded. Those in this oily, owing to their capacity, will be filled no doubt with thousands, and as they all pass through the Citizen's Hospital, the drain upon Its resources will be very heavy. The contributions that each of our citizens could give will amount in the aggregate to a sum strilictent to enable the managers to meet any emergency. The attractions at the fair are numerous and va ried. Among the most prominent will be found the cheerful and pleasant ladies who attend the tables, and a beautiful silver fire .horn to be voted for and pre sented to the fire company having the highest num ber of votes. The count at 6 o'clock last evening showed that the Franklin Steam Fire Hose Com pany led the van. Two magnificently bound bibles, to be voted 'for and presented, one to hie Excellency the President of the United States, or any General in the Union army who may exceed him in the number of votes ; the other to the Rev. G. F. Krotel of the Lutheran Church. Among the many articles on exhibition may be seen an exceedingly pretty Affghan, a dressing bureau, splendid reception chairs, wax work of vw rIOUB descriptions in vases 1 In fact, such a pleasing assortment of useful and fancy articles as will tempt the patriotic benevolence of the visitors. All persons whose patriotism permits them to ex ercise benevolence should visit Concert Hall any day or evening this week. PEI:MAD ELPMA PAZI3I3 CLUB An Interesting meeting of the club was held yes terday afternoon, in Independence Hall. An essay was delivered by Mr. E. W. C. Greene, of the Sun day Transcript, on the life and death of a number of the newspaper journalists who flourished twenty and thirty years since. The essay was an eloquent enlogium on the brilliant writers attached to the Philadelphia newspapers in days long gone by. A pleasant and instructive debate ensued, in which Messrs. Young, Hassan, MoKean, Wescott, Wat son, and Dennison were the principal participants. The club is in a flourishing condition. Perhaps, in the course of time, a handsome building, that will be creditable to the city, will be erected for the use of the members. CONFUSED LADY. Last evening a lady came to the Detective office In a high state of excitement, saying she had her watch stolen at the Arch street Theatre. It was a present from a deceased husband, and she nearly fainted at the idea of losing the cherished relic. Recorder linen happened to be present, and asked her It any part of the chain was left. She said " yes," and the Recorder asked to see it. She took hold of what she supposed to be the broken end of the chain, when to i the watch came along with it, she having slipped It inside her dress instead of in her pocket, She left the office highly delighted at the discovery. FOR THE SUFFERERS RV TUE LATE FIRE. The benefit given them by the young ladies at the Natatorium and Physical Inetitute, last Satur day, was highly satisfactory, and the performance of the different exercises in "light gymnastic " in every respect creditable to the members as well as to Miss Hopkins and Dr. Jansen conducting them. The audience, being all friends of the classes, was very select, and appeared to be much pleased with the success of this little affair, the result of which being $223 50 cash for the sufferers.
