CLOTHES FOR LANCASHIRE.—One of these store-
rooms full of cast-off clothing is well worth visiting.
It is really remarkable to see what very good things people
have consented to part with, and also what queer and un-
likely objects have found their way into the packages, I
saw coats and trousers in most excellent order, with just a
button-hole a little worn, perhaps, or some small matter of
that sort wrong. Some of the garnicnts had very likely
got out of fashion, though with plenty of wear left in
them. Some, pe, haps, had been from the first hateful to
the wearer, who had chosen them in an evil hour, and who
was now heartily glad of the opportunity of getting rid of
them. There were in one collection a couple of bonnets
of the shape worn before the present French pattern came
in. They were trimmed exactly alike, and no doubt had
belonged to sisters. One lady bad sent a muslin jacket to
keep some factory girl warm, while another jacket of silk,
richly trimmed with lace, had been contributed by some
other benevolent person. Some ladies had sent silk dresses;
one gentleman a gorgeous dress waistcoat of moire antique;
another, or perhaps the same, a pair of dress-boots with
morocco tops. But the most ingenious contributions of all
