bright rich color, the second skirt, not quite so full, is of a Q wide, cut in the Venitian style, with a deep point reaching lighter and more delicate shade: to give a more dressy and 3 more than half way down the skirt. The Ninon de Immlos elegant appearance, the second skirt maybe looped up at 2 is a basquine not fitting close to the waist, and it has the J-'IJIJI III each side by a li’atteau porte-jupe, ornamented to correspond addition of a deep pelerine or cape. The one we have seen with the dress, or in any other manner preferred: the cor is composed of black silk. The skirt and front of the has quine are trimmed with bouillonnes of silk, in three rows. sags and sleeves are of the same color as the second skirt.

with a rosette; others again have bands bordered in the
straw cord and tassel; others have a soft cap crown of some
same way with a ribbon or a velvet. but with n trimming of black lace turned back over it. Then others again have all round small barbs of lace or velvet trimmed with lace. For morning wear, they have cuffs turned up. either em broidered or quadrilled with velvet. An original innova tion just introduced consists of colored embroider'y forming wreaths on a quilted ground, which is likewise colored. A
pretty plaid or plain silk; and others are trimmed with barbs of black lace, or knots of ribbon and violets.
plain cuff of crimson or amaranth velvet has a very pretty
efl'ect with white under-sleeves. Another style of sleeve, much in favor, has a very broad mousqurtaz'rc cuff composed of tulle or net, of whichever material the sleeve may consist. This cufi' is crossed with rows of China blue velvet, edged with narrow white lace. The collar intended to be worn with these sleeves is pointed in front and behind, and trim med with crossings of velvet in the mannerjust described. For ordinary out-door dress, collars and cuffs of nansouk are crossed with black velvet.
Crossings of velvet are also
extremely fashionable for fichus, pelerines, and bretelles, made of black tulle. The crossings are of narrow black velvet in a lozenge pattern, and the pelerines, &c., are edged round with full trimmings of black lace. These pelt-rines and bretelles have long ends, which may be crossed in front and linked one in the other at the back of the waist, or they may be left to flow over the front of the skirt. In either way their effect is very elegant. When made of white tulle the crossings are of colored velvet. Berthes are also trim med with a combination of black and white lsce or blonde. These berthes are particularly pretty over pink, green, or maize-colored dresses. Ilsan-Darsses are at present very elegant. Among the most beautiful of those composed of flowers, are some wreaths of violets intermingled with bunches of black currents. or with wheat-ears in gold. We may mention that gold wheat ears have become favorite ornaments used as adjuncts to wreaths. One of the newly-introduced wreaths is formed of the flowers of the hop, in variegated tints of pale green and yellow; the foliage sprinkled with frosting in imitation of dew. Wreaths formed of corn-flags and blades of grass. and others composed of camelias with pendent sprays of buds and foliage, are among the favorites. The foliage combined with the new flowers and wreaths is frequently of different tints, shaded, and lightly frosted. Among the head-dresses, of which flowers form no part, we have seen one composed of bright blue velvet, pliant twists of gold, and light gold tassels. Another consists of a toque of green velvet trimmed with gold braid, which forms

of children‘s fashions, are still the most popular for little girls, as they are most easily kept on the head and protect the face and neck from the sun. Still a few fine split straws, trimmed very simply with bunches of narrow white ribbon on the top, are beginning to make their appearance. Some of these straws have soft "cap crowns" made of white silk. A band of narrow colored ribbon put in on one side of tho cap. is the usual inside face lining. Basqnines, such as seen in fig. 3, of our children‘s fashions. are the most fashionable out-of-door dress. They are frequently made t‘lltil'vl)‘ plain, with no trimming except the front buttons. For warmer Weather, Marseilles and brilliantc will be worn.
Skirts are

an arabesque ornament on one side; on the other side, a
plume of,magnificent white mnrabouts, tipped with gold, droop toward the back of the neck. Mllxruzs are usually of black silk, made quite large, of a shawl shape, and have a hood. Some of these hoods are quite plain, trimmed with only tassels; others are orna mented with fringe or lace; and others again are composed of lace entirely. BASQUINBS for the street are also increasing in favor. These are made very deep, reaching to within about half a yard of the bottom of the dress. There is usually no trim ming on them. except the corsage buttons which confine them from the waist up. The sleeves are very long and

latter are of fine split straw. The under-trimming consists generally of s- blonde cap and bows of ribbon, or tufts of violets, daisies. roses. &c. The capes are much smaller than those heretofore worn, and are usually set on in double box plaits. The fronts are slightly a la Man's Stuart, but with out boing exactly pointed in front.

belt, this skirt is buttoned to a white linen shirt waist
plaited before and behind. This white waist can be made either high in the neck with a ruffled collar and long sleeves, or low in the neck with a short puffed sleeve. A rufile down the front, with small shirt studs in the front plait, are a great addition to this very beautiful style of dress. The skirt. should be short and full. For larger boys. the short pantaloons reaching to the knee and finished with a ruffle, are worn.
A blouse, belted at the waist, or ajacket not fitting
too tight, is the upper garment. Sometimes a white shirt body, with an open, rounded jacket, is worn.
