In calling attention to the accompanying illustrations, SHELLARD and Hor,GsoN would observe that, at thia
etrt7 period of the scaseii, it is merely a matter of speculation as to 'That particular style will lecenarinest por4las. .
it appears, hoTrever, befond a doubt, that any share or style to obtain the slightest chance of achieving even temps-
ivy success, must he made very large, and with Shoves, either ezniplete or assunr.d. Many very elegant NPrelties in
this way will be found among the dret importations from Paris. r
The ZOL'AVE 'JACKET still reigns triumphant in the fashiOnele *arid. These of Velvet 'will give place to
materials of a lighter texture. They are now being made in Llffetes,. and ins° in Cashmere of different:colours—
principally Ch:7lB, Blue, Violet, and White.
The Colours for those of TAFFETAs3 are Blue, White, Bose,. and any one of the lighter Shades, so that it
harmonises with the root of the toilette. The Black Taffetas -honave is alWays simple and pretty, and has the
advantage of being quite free Eton any eccentricity of_appearance. These Jackets are no longer hilt sirEply
hoed with Taffetas of a contrasting shade. Thus the Black or Whits with Coloured Silk, the Coloured with White.
The lining is bordered with a narrow niche, of the same cf,lout, gew?rfilly placed so that it chews beyond the
edge. and the outside has a trininiiiig of narrow, guipure ronrid it, which falls over the rache. The Embroideries of
Gold or Silver give to these a more particular style, which M.any ladies do net adt‘ire.
• A little later in the season we shall find them made in Muslin for Summer Dretkes.

We evert now meet with them in Lace for Soire6s or for Dinner Dress.. Round the foundation, wSieli is #enirally
of tulle, is a broad Lace failing over the Dress, forming a flounce, or ruche. The Sleeves are made very larre, aid
opened up, and trimmed round with Lace, and when dressily worn, hire no under sleeves, bin have the arm
uncovered.—Frcm Le Fond.

"GREAT DISPLAY OF FRENCH GOODS IN BOLD-STREET.

" The Contneercial Treaty with France has certainly given an impetus to the Shopkeepers in Liverpool; and Frenth
Geods an beginning to be largely imported. The rapidly increasing Business of Messrs. Shellard and liodgsen—a
Business condoed entirely to Shawls, Mantles, and Jackets for Ladies—has compelled an exteniion of their already
very elegant and spacious Establishment. Amongst the more prominent alterations have been the throwing the First
and Snead Floors of the Houses, 40, BoLd-stnellt, and 43, Woon-stavmt, into a series of spacious and splendidly-
lighted Show Rooms, second to node in the kingdoni, prObablY for these eitialities: The extra space thus given
affords ample room for the ef►ective display of the elegant Stock which has just heed grt Id. Nte -understand thdt the
Buyers of the Establishment have just,retnrned from„London and rads, and that the French Commercial Tredty. By
which Silk and other Goods arc admitted Free of Duty, has enabled the French Designers and Manufacturers to
produce many novelties that have attracted the attention of the buyers fin. the British Market. Anticipating a very
large demand, the supply of Goods from the hands of the French Manufacturers has been of a corresponding
magnitude ; end availing themselves of the facilities offered to them, :Messrs. SR MLARD and HODGSON have purekastd
largely of very rich Goods, which they will show early in the ensuing week."
