(From Le Foikt.)

With the approach of autumn we notice a decided
tendency among ladies to adopt striking colours. Red bp an
especial favourite, and predominates in all articles of dram,
being worn in toilettes, petticoats, Testes, for the em-
broidery on stockings, and for the trimming oa hats. One
of the latest novelties is • pasta without sleeves. The
dress-sleeve pares through the arm-boles, round which is
placed either • trimming of lace, • paasementerie with bead
triage, er, what is more generally worn, • long Llama
fringe. We were much placed with a very charming
burnous called "k fills de desert," made in a new
material, which, although stout, is still light, in two shades,
lilac and white, with like tassels falling over • border of
white for, and lined with silk. For the asa-side, where the
erasing' are often cool, this burnous is very well adapted.
A coat made of white velvet cloth with black stitching and
pockets, is both stylish and comfortable. In lace, the
burnous in Yak, and the Llama point, or Chantilly rotoode,
are most in favour ; but for full toilette • *stet in white
poult de sot. trimmed with • flounce of Brussels point
abont 7 inches wide, with a crimped fringe falling aver it,
and brandeboargs of thick silk loops, fastened by hang*
buttons of Magma Elver down the front, is decidedly the
most elegant. The barque-habit, or garde Pringle., u
often worn in the country. but is not much patronised as
yet in Paris. It is more beooming to slight figures, but the
ends should never reach lower than a third of the length
of the skirt.

--The I;lnets, which are still decreasing in size, are never-
theirs very graceful, particularly so when made of light
materials, such u tulle, blonde, and Bowen ; sad although
hats are now worn moo in Paris, the fame are still pre-
ferred for visits of omernmay, comer* tre., area at the sea
aide. We will describe some of the newest of each kind for
the benefit of our readers. A °spots, the found rice straw,
with soft tallies crown of tells, covered with drop of dew.
At the side folds of tolls Melissa, in which la placed • bunch
of small roes bads covered with dewdrops. The same trim-
ming is placed inside. White ribbon strings. Acapote of pink
crape drawn length ways. trimmed with wreaths of small haves
in Chantilly. At the side a long breech of pink foxgloves,

heath mixed with bouclettes of blue chenille. A bonnet of
white tulle, the edge bouilloon4, thefroatoompletelyoovered

narrow frill of blonde, trimmed with bonclettee at ribboo,
replaces the cnrtsio. Strings of white ribbon ; small
Bowers and tulle inside. A rice-straw bonnet, trimmed
at the aide with a beach of cherries and foliage ; the

inside end outside the front edge, and the inside finished
