rHE NOVELTY most recently introduced by
MF.SSRS. NICOLL Is called NICOLL'S EIDER DOWN
s,
.LETOT, such novelty consisting in the adaptation of Eider Down
:1!, the several purposes of wearing apparel, but more particularly in
‘ formation of NICOLL'S PALETOT, the original elegance and
utility of which is, however, faithfully preserved.
Elders are found in greatest numbers in Iceland and the Ferr
Islands, where their beautiful and delicate down is well known to bt
proof, against the most severe cold, and even the small quantity
w),u
‘ch can be compressed and concealed between the two hands, wit
in the formation of a Palctet, which, while it has most extra-
ordinary lightness, has, nevertheless, more warmth than the finest
thlcke3t blanket, the great desideratum for a winter garment!
'Jel],ll/ thus accomplishes], namely, personal warmth without fatigue.

TFIX NICOLL is the distinguishing name given
to a garment secured by Royal Letters Patent from
!eneral imitation. It has all the advantages of Messrs. NICOI.L'S
riginal invention, the REGISTERED PALETOT of LLAMA
LOTH. The NICOLLTALETOTS are charge One, Two, Three,
nd Three-and a-half Guineas, according with the climate or pur-
..oso for which they may be required,

THE SEAL FUR PA.LETOT
The eoetly nature of the miterill will necessarily confln•
he use of this garment to a :elect few ; but he who can afford the
cnense will pronounce it to be the most gentl:tmanly, elegant, and
mu lons artile of dress that can passlhly be conceived. Messrs.
:ICOLL will, however, continue to supply he SEAL FUR
'ALETOT at its present moderate pric i --that is to say, so ong as
'le demand does net interfere with the supply ; for it must be
'erne in mind that the number of Seal Skins in Vie Eiglish market
'very limited—at least such as are capable of a lantitio to the
went purp-lse, that of being binned into the grze f a garment
ailed NICOLL'S PALETJT. Reentered 6 and 7 cap, 6i.

CTIRISTMAS.—One of the new patented inven-
t ons called NICOLL'S EIDER DOW P ‘LETOT will
,71ptless form a most accept4ble gift at the approaching season of
when it is somewhat difficult to se.ect the best token of
flidship or affection. The lightness and warmth of this garment
7/ Tender it iti,4hly setviceahlc for coveria; an evening costume
,ithout causing the least disarran:ement and frora the peculiarity
f the formation of the whole it precludes the necessity for any mea-
.
a.,lrement being taken, as merely some sli%ht description of heleht or
el9-Fice will ,tifike to enable the patentees to supply an EIDER
," r.kLETOT, at the cost of SIX GUINEAS, and which may
' be described as one of the best preservatives of health tvor yet
itroduced to the public.

A TATTLE on the CATTLE.

Two gentle,nen (myself and Mr. Dyall)
Conversel together in faMillar speech :
And now, for Moses' sake, I'll make a trial
To tell, verbatim, what was said by each.
" Sir (said my friend), do you intend to go
To see this famous Smithfield Cattle Stow ?"
" Yes, Sir (said I,
In my reply),
Iran be well, I'm certa'n to be there,
For I enjoy the sight at Portman-square,
Not only for the oxen, sheep, and pigs,
On which Friend Punch delights to play his rigs,
lint for the well-dresse gentlemen and ladies,
Whose fashions are a prof what Moses' trade is."
" Exactly so (said Dyal ), I and you
On such a subject have the self-same view.
1 never went, I do declire,
To see the prizes at the square,
Without admiring Moses' dresses there.
I certainly conPss
(Said Mr. Dyall),
That such su erior dress
Should cause us ev'ry one to make a trial."
"Just se (said I), I acquiesce
In all you .ay of Moses' dress.
The Paletots (and you I see have ens),
Do credit to the Mart of M. and Son."
