LADIES' DRESSES.

EVENING thrEss.—A robe of pink velours epingle, trimmed
round the border with a wreath of leaves in dead gold ; a
gerbe of them ascends on each side of the front as high as the
'knee. Corsage drape, trimmed with blond, standing up on
each side of the bust. Short sleeves, the lower part mode-
rately full, and arranged en bouffant by gold leaves. The hair
is disposed in ringlets in front, and a twisted knot behind ; it
is ornamented with a wreath of gold leaves, terminated by a
red rose with buds and foliage.
BALL DRESS.—Robe of white spotted tulle, over white
satin ; the skirt is looped a little on one side by a knot of
white satin ribon, iu which a rose is inserted. Pointed cor
sage, draped a la Sevigne, and ornamented w ith a rose in the

OPERA DRESS.—White satin robe, the front trimmed with
lace and ribbon arranged ala Foatayne. Blue satin paletot,

GRAND PARTY DRRSs.—Legion-coloured satin robe, the
front is trimmed en deem tablier, with white satin draperies,
finished by gold fringe, and arranged in the cone form, with
a knot of ribbon at the point ; corsage a la Ninon, tiimmed
with blond and ribbon. The head-dress is a chapelof groseille

velours epinyle, trimmed with white ostrich feathers ; a bur-
nished gold bandeau completes the ornaments of the coiffeure.
OUT DOOR COSTUME.—The cold weather that has lasted
so long makes our eleyantes so fond of wrapping up, that we
cannot find much to say of their present attire ; mantles and
furs are decidedly the order of the day, but we have seen some
novelties for outdoor costume, of a very elegant description,
which will appear in the course of a few days.
HATS AND BoNNETs—Drawn bonnets are also losing
ground in favour. Velvet bonnets of eliapeux cap; to shape,
trimmed with a bouquet of marabouts, or bats with the brims
extending round the back of the crown, are the most in fa-
vour ; thee last are variously trimmed, but the most simply
elegant still is satin ribbon of the same colour, and a long flat
ostrich feather also to correspond, which winds in a spiral di-
rection round the crown.

The Scotsman of Saturday last, in its report of the
state of the weather is Ediliburib, sa3 s that the froLt had re-
laxed, but that snow had begun to fall again.

The Marylebone election has terminated in favour of the
Tory candidate, Lord Teignmouth, and the borough is now
completely nullified—Mr. Hall being a Liberal in every sense
of the word, and Lord Teignmouth an ultra-Tory. The result
has not surprised us or our readers. There was an ample ma-
jority in favour of the Liberal cause, had the Liberal interest
been united, as was not only shown upon the last election,
but also upon the present by the state of the poll ; but the
madmen of Marylebone seeing, upon the state of the poll,
at the early hour of nine o'clock, that Colonel Thompson had
not the slightest chance of being returned, very consistently
turned round and voted, not for Mr. Ewart, but for the Tory ,
candidate ! This highly honourable conduct on the part
of the ultra-Radical electors of Maryleboue, has caused the
loss of two Liberal votes in the Liberal interest, in the House
of Common's ; but we must say that both upon moral and
political grounds we scarcely regret the result. The ultra-
, Radicals are now well known—they arc Tories in disguise,
and cannot in future be mistaken. We once thought that they
were honest—we now find them to be not only impracticable,
but dishonest. How Colonel Thompson can reconcile his
conduct upon this occasion, we know not. That he has been
grossly deceived by unprincipled and selfish persons who have
made a tool of him, we readily believe; but how comes it that
hour after hour it became clearer and clearer that he had no
friends ?—that he did not resign—and that he did not re-
quest the few friends that he had to give their votes in favour
of his equally Liberal opponent ? Had this conduct been
pursued, Mr. Ewart would have been simply in a minority
of one, even according to the figures upon the poll-book;
but with the allowance for waverers and for thousands who, on
account of Tory prosecution in consequence of their indepen-
dent conduct upon the last election, did not vote, there is every
reason to believe that Mr. Ewart would have been the sue-
cessful
candidate. However, the result has been unfavour-
able, and Colonel Thompson and his ultra-Radical confede-
rate have given the final blow to Radicalism in England for
twenty yeals to come. No Liberal will henceforth trust them.
They are Tories in disguise, and the sooner they unmask the
better. At the close of the poll at four o'clock the numbers .
stood thus :

Ewart
Teignmouth 4,179
Thompson
211

Majority for Teignmouth ... —436
—Morning Advertiser.
Lord Teignmouth has prevailed, and Marylebono is repre.
sented by a Tory. The numbers at four o'clock yesterday
were—For Lord Teignmouth, 4,223 ; for Mr. Ewart, 3,856;
and for Colonel Thompson, 238. The majority of Lord
Teignmouth oaer Mr. Ewart is 367. Had the votes for Col.
Thompson been added to Mr. Ewart's, the majority in favour
of Lord Teignmouth would have been reduced to 129. It is
tolerably clear that the Colonel never had the slightest chance
of success. We cannot say that we are astonished at the
course the Colonel has pursued ; because, after the evidence
of the state of his head in the letter to the Working Men's
Association at Hull, copied into the Chronicle of Monday last
nothing which ho says or does ought to surprise any one. Our
readers may recollect that in the production alluded to, the
Colonel expressed it as his opinion that in the deplorable
event of the King of Hanover's succession to the throne of
England our liberties would be in jeopardy ; and that his notable
panacea—the first step—towards safety—was to net the present
Ministers out of office, in order, of course, to get the Tory friends
of the King of Hanover into office, by way of guarding against
the attacks on our liberty in the event of his succession. It will
be argued by the Tories no doubt that the return of Lord
Teignmouth affords a proof of a reaction in favour of the
Tories. At the last election he polled 2,952, and at the pre-
sent he has polled 4,223, an increase of 1,271 in half a year.
But on the face of the thing too much is here proved. Colonel
Thompson's address, too, in our advertising columns, affords a
confirmation of what is confidently affirmed by numerous per-
sons well acquainted with Mraylebone, that Murphy's party
of ultra- Radicals, after the first or second hour, voted for
Lord Teignmouth. It was distinctly affirmed by a leading
supporter of Colonel Thompson that at least one thousand
ultra-Radicals voted for his Lordship. That two hundred
or three hundred Reformers who voted at the last elec-
tion might abstain from voting at this is, we think, probable,
for it cannot be concealed that there is a growing disinclina-
tion in tradesmen to expose themselves to sacrifices in the way
of business on account of their votes ; but in estimating this
class of electors at three hundred we probably rather over than
under rate them. The rest of the 1,271 is, no doubt, made up
of the ultra-Radicals. " We have defended (says Colonel
Thompson) our little post with complete success." The ob-
ject, then, of Colonel Thompson's starting for Marylebono
was, not to be himself returned, but to prevent a Reformer
from being returned. Mr. Ewart is one of the most decided
of Reformers, and during the whole period he was in Parlia-
ment he strenuously supported every Liberal measure. This,
then, is the complete success ! " The Whigs," proceeds the
Colonel, " have pointed to the dangerous secret. that not one of'
them can be elected unless the Radicals consent. If the Whigs
have their reasons for seating a Tory in preference to a Radical,
the Radicals by that very fact have cause to prefer him to a
Whig. Our example will not be lost." We cannot say-
that we understand the Colonel's allusion. All Whigs are
not perfection any more than all Radicals are ; and if Whigs
seated a Tory in preference to a Radical, all we can say is that
they acted very foolishly. But, on the assumption that the
Colonel is borne out by the fact, we confess we do not exact►y
comprehend how the folly of some Whigs justified the still
more egregious fully of the ultra- Radicals of Marylebone.
Mr. Ewart is a Whig, and something more ; he is in fact a
staunch Radical Reformer; and even (which we deny) were
the Colonel justified in supporting an enemy to all Reform in
preference to one who stops short of the Reform for which the
Radicals contend, that would not justify the preferring a
Tory to a stanch Radical Reformer. This we will say of Mr.
Ewart, that there was nut a more decided Reformer than
himself all the time he was in Prrliament. Col. Thompson
himself in his Letter days was always crotchety, and on a memo-
rable occasion, when a single vote was of immense con-
sequence, chose to desert his place in Parliament, for a
feast in Hull. Mr. Ewart was never absent from his
post. The plain English of Colonel Thompson's address iv,
that the ultra-Radicals possess the power of seating a Tory,
and to prove that they possess such power they have seated
Lord Teignmouth. And should the example of Marylebone
be followed, as Colonel Thompson predicts that it will, the
danger suspended over the country from the succession being
open to the King of Hanover will be guarded against most
effectually by filling Parliament with the partisans of that
King, and the Reform cause will be completely successful by
placinre power in the hands of the enemies of all Reform.
The Marylebone exhibition is one of which the Reformers
have no cause to be proud. It is painful to think that men
like this Murphy should possess even Fit) much influence with
any class of Reformers as to enable him, in a contest between
a Tory and an excellent Reformer, to turn the scale in favour
of the Tory.—Morning Chronicle.
We have not room to-day to do more than offer our con-
gratulations to all friends of the Constitution upon the result
of the Marylebone election. The Whig- Radical Candidate
Las been beaten, and a Conservative returned by a majority
of 436. It is worthy of especial notice that Lord Teignmouth
has at this election polled 1,227 votes more then he polled at
the lest. And yet there is no reaction ! Oh, no 1 It is
equally remarkable that Colonel Thompson's starting has had
little if any influence on the election. He polled only 211
votes; Mr. Ewart polled 3,743, and Lord Teignmouth polled
4,179. Thus bursts the Ministerial bubble about Mr. Evvart's
certainty of success if Colonel Thompson did not succeed in
dividing the " Liberal" interest. From an early hour, Lord
Teigurnouth took the lead in gallant style, and maintained it,
with varied success, throughout the day. The contest, as
will be seen from the state of the poll at its close, lay entirely
between his Lordship and Mr. Ewart, the Government nomi-
nee. At four o'clock, when the books were shut, the num-
bers polled respectively by each candidate, according to the
Conservative Committee's statement, were as follows
Lord Teignmouth
Mr. Ewart
Colonel Thompson 2ll

Between the Radied dinner hours, one and three o'clock,
the rush of your ten-pounders to the poll told, as usual, in
favour of the Liberal gentleman, whose politics are most in
accordance with their average amount of intelligence and stake
in the country. About midday, accordingly, 11r. Ewart
brought down Lord Tcignmouth's curly majority by nearly
500 votes; that is to say, the Whig-Radica7s were enabled to
make just such an approach to success, as has served to give
double bitterness and mortification -to defeat. Nor is this
victory, as we have already stated, attributable to any sup-
posed disunion among the Destructives. It is true that
between the leaders of the faction there was a consider-
el le disagreement; but that the immense majority of their
troops were brought to the field in a fins and united co-
lumn, is evident from the fact, that the diversion, headed by
Colonel Thompson, was supported by only 211 voters. The
Liberals, therefore, have been beaten in a fair stand up fight ;
and this, too, with the whole weight of Government influence
and of parochial authority exerted, most discreditably, in op-
position to the constitutional cause. All the official vermin
.infesting the vestry-boards and local municipal institutions—
all your rate-collectors, registrars, and superintendent-regis-
t:ars, dependent on Whig patronage, and dismissible at Whig
pleasure,—all these political mercenaries were to be seen in
the several polling-booths, according to their districts, bully-
ing the poll-officers in favour of aliens and every other descrip-
tion of disqualified voters, whose unlawful suffrages, so' inde-.
cently brawled for by such hirelings, were nevertheless vigi-
lantly objected to by the Conservatives, though not always
with due effect. In short, Mr. E wart hal the benefit of
every Ministerial mid parochial influence that .could pos-
sibly be mustered, aided by the united labours and ex-
perience of the whole of Mr. Hall's Committee. But it
would not do. To the " ten boroughs which applied
to him since he lost Liverpool," he may now add the
borough of Marylebone, lie lacing still left in the market for
any Radical constituency that may take a fancy for such a
bargain. The condemnation with which this return has
branded Mr. Joseph Hume and his expiring diva is a highly
emphatic one. But for that foolish and forward personage,
there is no reason to believe that any attempt would have
been made to thrust Mr. Ewart upon the Marylebone voters,
nor has Joseph failed to strain every nerve to regain in that
borough the influence w hien he had lost. in the inotropolitan
county. The result, therefore, is substantially a second de-
feat for that forlorn and faded patriot ; and as t 'le Whig
Ministry, ideniif)ing themselves with Joseph's nminee, 'lava
perked donb'e tides' to prevent the addition of awother vote
to the Conserva'ive opposition, they also a-..e covered with
their due share of Jeseph's unpopularity and disgrace. Upon
the whole, the glee icus termination to which. this contest has.
been brought is highly encouragieg to the friends of order,
and indicates such sound political stamina among the great
body of the people as require only tune and attention to deve-
lope themselves in still greater strenth throughout the other
large constituencies of the kingdom.—?'lutes.
The electors of Marylebone have this time done their duty
well. The triumphant return of Lord Teigneeouth, by a inn-
