To lita-ry so muclktn - say that "one cannot eV`

.
-and onetlat ought,ty - this time, to be quite
well - ktiown to • l'ekless• correspondents. In
this great place w see so much •that we have
very little time to,tell anything, but it is easy
enough tow rite What,New 'York is doing. •• ,
If Nero thought, ho was having a good time
when he fiddled, While Rome was burning, he
made a mistake; and should havo waited to Lid-•
die for New York to dance; for there is no
gayer - season than that which 'its the society
world, so-called,--is known as- THE SEASON.
Just now the festivities come so rapidity that
the liberality of pater-families
,and the artistic
.Piste of modistes are constantly -in :requisition.
The latter, about this time ; 54 the almanacs say,
areinclining to classic models. -
Costumes forevenitig' are delicately divided
`into dignified velvets, .brocades and joitles, 'for
matrons, and Carnaien silks, China cr.:posi
t:dies, Ac.: for the youthful. Styles areas they
should ese, magnificent for the former,
and picturesque for the latter. In velvets, the
regetation dress'of black is departed; from, ex
cept as to the ntaideon do emu-, which is more
particularly a dinner costume ; and ladies Awe
- wearing shadetrofpearl, • eteam and' azure—
white velvets; as' wellas shades of peach and al-,
•ntond. Of course nothing but lace is regal
enough to serve A:4 triinming for velvets of such
delicate shades.' Unluckily, the 'heir-looms of.
New York are not of aristocratic' poi is and .r
-,fligh ttrre. .
Among our newest silks the superiorrquali-
ties of otos groin are -somewhat euinbersonie,
and have given way to a point de sole.

elegant, but softer and inure flowing, in which
aro •produeed all these - wonderful elpsdes Of

'popular. as those !of pink, which threaten to
rival and swallow up the blues 'which have
.so
thig.hcen supreme. Satins - have lost the helm- -
larity they gained three years ago and other
fabrics have' taken their place: Among

and is 'used • exclusively for tunics, and over

plates the men ' from those districts at the head
of the lists fur - that .
in the firt place these distr;Cts have a
decided advantage ever almost all others in this
respect, which the editor of the L. M. Joen,sym
'dare not See 11l - to understand, or cite why 'don't
he show the reasons. The seams are almost

the coal can be dug any way the proprietors or

(ewe here) eon be took with ease in ,any` ,
lion in the mine theywish, either up toe Sean)
or down, which gives the operators great En-il

a seam that has over a certain number of de-.
grecs of inclination cannot do; hence .1 lie ultra
' tier of tons per man more there thou else Where,
also. the seam; bang flat it afforilaßetter facili
ties for good timbering or propping, which can-.

hence less mortality. _Again, a Seam that is flat
can be better ventilator( than ern: that pitches,
