F.dBRIONS FOR OCTOBER.

(From Le FoVet.)

As all our fauhionablea ere now at the eea•side, if
we would ascertain the mode, we must follow them to their
retreats; and even then we shell have some difficulty in de-
ciding, r ft is wall known that fashion I. for less arbitrary at
theve places than in Paris or London.
The Gest thing we nodes is, that bate are almost ouch:-
steely worn, although great variety exists in the shapes end
trimmings.
The hateli4re is very large, and quite round, and is angelic
for children. The Clarence is smaller and slightly raised at
the aides, edged with a laos farming a fall, and trimmed with
one or two feather., liatened in front under a bow of ilibon,
end (reined round the crown.

The mouaquetaire is the greatest favourite. It is smaller
than either of the others, and when tritium(' with a lace fall
and ribbons, or feathers, is very ekgant, and generally
becomieg.

Quilting dreams am much and "well worn." This ma-
terial is very suitable for the seaside, being rather heavy;
and it has Teen brought to such perfection, Loth in texture
and design, that it makes at the tt►me time un elegant and
useful dress.

With a coloured quilting rube a white burnous may be
worn, while over a white one a Tunisian shawl aux mills
couleurs, has a very geed effect. We have seen Irma by
elms ladies a kind of loose paletot, of ooutil or nankin, edged
with a bright colour or with plaid. The effect is very
pretty. It may to worn over the dress, or, in very warm
weather, with a skirt only, in which case a plaited cliemb
tette, with long sleeves, plain collar, and turned-back crib,
hue a very good effect.
The bodies of dresses are now generally worn high ; but
low bodice are alas Len, and, of course, in lull dress are
always adopted.
Bretelles aro still worn with them. Rather a new style of
this ornament has lately appeared. It is made of broad
velvet, arranged almost square from the shoulders, and
fastened to o band at the waist. Three bands of the same
velvet, or seven of very narrow, are placed across the front
and back. A buckle is placed at the waist, both before and
behind, from which two ends of velvet hang on the skirt.
This has a very pretty effect, end may be worn with several
dresses without other trimming.
Double skirts, as well as flounces, still continue to be much
worn. The moat favourite trimming for the double skirt le
a handsome fringe placed on the edge of the upper skirt only.
Indeed, fringe will be very mach adopted the winter ea a
trimming, not only for dremea, but also for mantles and the
varieties of beaquines and pleats now worn.
. . . _ .

Fiches are stall worn, with but little variety. The fiche
Oberon is a slight alteration of the fichu Antoinette ; the ends
are shorter, and finish at the aides by bows. The sleeves nee
also shorter, rut square, and open to the front of the elbow,
where they are ornamented with bows.
The tidal *slits is composed of white muslin or tulle. It
reaches only to the top of a low-bodied dress, and is dela-
eively worn with those bodies that ere cut square; it is
revered by very narrow velvet. placed ate little levee thee an
inch apart; the end. being lets hanging beyond the edge
of tha fiche, form a kind of fringe. The EirVques sleeves
ere trimmed to match, end edged with a lace placed under
the eudeot velvet. The throat is also trimmed with lace.

The show-rooms of our florists speak plainly of MatUTIL
To the delicate tints of the slimmer flowers are succeeding the
rich and bright tints of autumn, in wreathe or bouquets of
velvet &were mired with lettere of gold brown, which have
such en elrgaut appearance end arc so becoming. The meet
charming novelties ore being prepared as trimmings for
bonnets, coiffures, and robes.
We must wait this return of our fashionobles before we can I
hope to so, anything decidedly novel in bonnets. At the
present reason, nothing can be prettier than those of rice
strew, trimmed with mall hunches of feathers at tke aides;
some filling over the cundo, and others over the front,
miring grorefully with the blonde and more of ribbon round
the face. Others have is a trimming a lung white feather
freed on ono side by • bow of straw, edged with blonde, and
carried across the front, billing over the curtain, which is
t:creme! with wide blonde. In the rap, bows of straw, edged
with blonde mixed with fuchsias and heath.
The colour matte continues to to very frettionsble. Strew
bonnets trimmed with maize iibben and black are very pretty
and becoming.
An elegant Leghorn hornet was trimmed round the front
with a vole block lace falling over the hair, and curried acmes
the curtain; this WWI surmounted by a wreath of cherries.
White taffetas gringo, trimmed with black velvet. Blonde
cap„ with black velvet bows and bunches of cherries.
White tsffetas bonnets have frequently a wide band of
bright colour round the Boat and curtain. The prettiest
trimming for arse bonnets is a long feather of the &trite
colour AA the edge, fulling gracefully over the shoulder. The
strings tire always of white teffetas, edged to match.
Crepe is still touch worn, but it ie frequently covered with
a light Wm k lace, which gives a very elegant apprentice to
them. . . _

Capotes of trope or silt are also increasing in favour but
the fashion in tht“uipurtant article of dress will, we doubt
nut, be 'Dore decided next month.
Black Lee flellllllll and shawls Sr. more in favour than
ever, and will, we believe, be much teed in evening these
during the winter, particularly If light-coloured satins should
regain the faeorthey once obtained, end which awned our
best mediates confidently expect.
Shawl, have never offered grewer vet' than at the pre.
mot time. Independently of those celled one sees
shawl+ of grenadine, embroidered In silks in a style
quite Oriental, as much by the beauty of designs as the etch
harmony of the colours. The fringe is very wide, and over
it fall hug tufts, including all the shades in the embroidery.
These shawls are of groat value and for the time have super-
ceded the China crape. Others, id guipure Denise, are
almost in us much favour as those of white or black boa.

ing not indeed the current of public opinion,for public
opinion there is none in this country, but the no-
turns which the authorised or tolerated organs of
publicity either wish or dare to propagate. With
this preface I think the following comments of the
government journal, the Pays, on the last Indian
news worth citing :
We have certainly no intention to add to the embarrass-
, aunt of a nedzhbowing and friendly country, and we will
add that nothing seems to us so odious as ill-concealed
',toy manifested by certain Puiaian journals at the disasters
in India. Nevertheless, it is impossible not to ere that
within the last three months the news becomes more and
more deplorable. We cannot share the optimism of other
journals, and although we do not believe that India is 144
to England, we cannot conceal from ourselves that from this
moment England enters upon a aeries of sacrifices, and a

The PatrM, in a leading article commenting upon
the petition of the Bordeaux merchants, observes
that the "miserable relics" of the ancient French
possessions in Hindostan still consist of 188 square
miles of territory, containing 200,000 inhabitants,
and it opines that the French government is disposed
effectually to exercise in all its plenitude the Moon-
testible right to protect these possessions, and thus

national dignity, and leaves our establishments ex-
posed to manifest danger."

The Mundellr de la Rolle gives the following de-
tails relative to the Cocoa Islands, which the Eng-
lish, it has been announced, have lately taken pos-
session of:

The principal is/and is called by the native, Neoeboulabou,
the group being situated ill Eastern Polynesia. The island
just mentioned was diecovered in 1616 by Schouten, a cele-
brated Dutch navigator, who took possession of it in the
name of his government, and that circumstance has led
to the protest against the English occupation lately made
by the governor of the Dutch possessions in the East Indies,
the group belonging, he declaim, to Holland. The isles are
seven in number, the largest being about seven miles long
by as many broad. They produce a considerable number of
trees, the bg tree being the most abundant, and the oecoa,
from which they take their name, being only second in rank.
Three only of the isles are inhabited, and the natives are
exceedingly indolent, sad consequently poor. One of the
group, the fourth in size, is called Alligator Island, from the

Britain, end New Ireland.
