As we noticed in our last number, bows of ribbon on the front of dresses, are very popular. Another style of trim ming, the description of which we cut from a French Maga~ zinc, is very beautiful. The dress was made for a lady to wear at Compiogne. It was of black satin, (satin will be very much in vogue this year,) body without points, large flowing sleeves, the dress being ornamented with little hands of black velvet, about five inches in width, ten in number, set perpendicularly all around the bottom of the skirt; these

Several pretty in-door caps have Just appeared. They are composed of tulle and lace, and are trimmed with loops and ends of ribbon. A cap composed of tulle is trimmed with ruches and frills of blonde and loops of blue ribbon. An other composed of white lace is trimmed with frills, alter nately of black and white lace, and with loops and ends of pink ribbon. The strings are composed one of pink and the other of black ribbon. Among the articles of lingerie which have most recently appeared may be named, some under sleeves of tulle and muslin, variously trimmed with ribbon and velvet, but not differing materially from those which have been worn so long, as will be seen byfigs. XI and .l'II. Surpass are decorated with rosettes, ribbons. and lace, sometimes mixed with silk. We have seen on the fairy foot of a lady of fashion a pair of those slippers of Havana mo rocco embroidered with flowers ofa darker shade and black bugles. Other slippers of black patent leather, have, not at the edge, but in the middle on the top of the foot, alargo gold, steel, or silver buckle, placed on a black ribbon.

The upper skirt is open in the tunic form, and is bordered with a gaufi'ering of mauve-color silk. A ball dress of light green tarlctane, over silk of the same tint, has been greatly admired. The tarlctane dress has three skirts, each

The upper one is edged with three rows of scalloped ribbon, put on above the narrow hem; the lower and upper rows are of white ribbon, and the middle row of the same color as the dress. The body is made with a sharp point in front, and trimmed with a Marie Antoinrite berthe, with long ends, made of the same material as the dress, and trimmed to cor respond with the upper skirt. The sleeves are trimmed with rows of ribbon like the berthe. A band, and bows of black velvet, and loops of pearl beads, compose the heed-dress. Fro. m.—As Oo'r-or-pooas Dasss sea A Gun.

The round face has replaced the most unbecoming pointed top, and as fashion was disgusted with her former efforts, she has decreed that where the facelis not round, it shall be flattened on the top, with a slight Marie Stuart shape. Bonnets are plainer this year than formerly, and, to our taste, much {III/IN
