FASHION.—MANTLES AND AIANTEAUX.—We have
Been a case, just cleared at the Customs, containing the
latest results of Parisian ingenuity in cloaks. These
certainly show a great advance in taste, and are alike
remarkable for ease and grace, and an absence of all ap-
parent labour in the production of distinguesffects. There
is, likewise, much distinct novelty in their contour, and
clearly evince their having been fashioned by those who
are gifted with an intuitive perception of elegance of
form and dignity of carriage. Some few days will elapie
before the exposition of these exquisite garments, or they
are dispersed amongst our aristocracy, as they are des-
tined to serve the Messrs. Jay, of Regent-street, ai
models for the adaptation of their winter requirements,
but their arrival may be noticed as sufficiently indicative
of the progress of the industrial arts amongst the modestes
of France.—Morning Paper.

POSTAL ARRANGEMENTS.—IIOLYIIE AD AND D Ult•
LIN.—In order to ensure the postal arrangements being
kept complete this winter between England and Ireland,
the Admiralty have ordered the Vivid packet from
Dover, and the Undine from Woolwich, round to Holy-
head; and to accommodate the public who now leave
Dublin at eight in the morning, and Holyhead at six in
the evening, it is rumoured that others will follow, to
convey an additional mail at those periods, while all
towns throughout the line are to be benefited by a second
delivery.

A TIME TO BEGIN.—At the Liverpool Police-
court, on Wednesday, an Irishwoman, charged with an
assault upon one or her countrywomen, palliated her
conduct by saying that she " never interfered until she
was murdered with a poker."
