Lon; in favour.

For dress bonnets, crape, tulle, rice-strew, leghorn,
silk, mixed with tulle or straw, are equally fashionable.
It has been said that the mixture of black and white
could no longer be used. This has proved to be an
error, as it is still very much worn, but generally with
rose, lilac, or blue, which we think an improvement.
Morning bonnets are trimmed very simply. A black
or brown straw bonnet should have merely a bouquet o
wild poppies, corn-flowers, or wild roses with black
strings, and black or brown curtain:
Dress bonnets have frequently a blonde veil ; those
more simple a Chantilly; and morning bonnets "are
worn without a veil.

Hats will be worn again in the country, hut we fear
that they will not gain favour in the city ; we wish
they would, as they are certainly very becoming to most
faces, and scarcely unbecoming to any.

It is surprising how each recurring year the Parisian
provides for the wants of fashion. At the close of
each successive season our arti,Rtes appear to sink into
apathy, and to think that art is exhausted and fancy
beyond recall. A visit to Paris dispels the illusion, and
shows that, while listlessness had cast its rpell at home,
genius has quickened the faculties abroad. These facts
are made peculiarly manifest in the late, arrivals of
mantillas at the Messrs. She Hard and Hodgson's, 40,
Bold-street; each particular style giving diginity to
the wearer ; and if this be beyond the reach of art, it is,
at least, guiltless of vulgarising dignity, or marring its
, attendant graces.

CORRESPOT4TANCE.

THE PRIZE RING.

Tll EVITOR OE THE DAILY TIMES

ant glad to see by an advertisement in yours
of to-day, that Bet* trettle, of nirmingharn, and his
tioupe of boxers are coniing to the Adel Phi Theatre, on
next Itimiday night, to exhit)it their superior style ed
and when We think of the pluck an courage
of Brett!!'' in fighting our little champion, and flooring
bini tivice bekve Heenan floored him once—and when
the Liverpool pm* ree what a small man he is to even
Sayers, and much mord Ikenan, I think they will
acknowledge that he deserves an equal; share of praise.
Itut it is Brettle's urbanity of manner and unassuming
straightforward demeanour out of the ring that has
secured him' the goodwill and esteem of the highest and
the lowest of all Ames in Birmingham and the locality.

I hope, on MondayOt, to see him display as I
have often done upon the tattle field.—Yours,

Liverpool, May 31.
