(FROM ♦ OdaanaPoanzter.)

resolved to keep up the dignity sod hospitality of their
predecessors, intend dispensing with some portion of the
usual meretricious display, and their liveries have, therefne.

of black cashmere, are similarly ornamented, sad in addle-
Ron the knees have a garter and tassels also of silver.
The undress liveries are also particularly chute.

form part of the attire) have been planned with greatest*.
so as to combine elegance with Beanies% by Mean. ?for'
hew and Co., of Bond-street. They are of the ordinary
round shape, of superior fabric, and are banded and bor
dered with rich silver lace, having tasteful I°Vizga
of ua'
usually massive silver cording.
