so far the subject is not a new one. But still it •
si not less true,

made to supply, as far as possible, that desideratum atteimPt is
in general
literature.
To those who have traversed the I s iorea of that stream, aid to
those who intend to travel thither, it is believed • • eved than this book
that there can be no more acceptable offe • ng. It is fondly hoped
that it will again awaken in the minds ri
of the one the dormant
beauties of the glorious scenes over which they have heretofore
wandered, and fix them more firmly in their memory by connecting
them with the fasts of history, or the poetry of romance ; while to
the others it is trusted that it will serve as a stimulant to quicken
their apprehension of coming
pleasure, by exciting their reason,
their imagination, and their fancy. Thus recollection of the past,
and anticipation of the future, will, it is presumed, be blended by
it into one harmonious
whole.
The pains
bestowed on tl • this production, and the time employed
in its completion, entitle

FASHIONS FOR MAY.

(From the London and Paris Ladies' Magazine.)
Redingotes, which are much worn at this moment, close at the side
corsage a cceur, with or without ',define, the backs a little full ; the cm.
broidered collars are made of the form to suit these bodies, they are
sometimes replaced by a guimpe. Low dresses have the bodies cruise or
drape, and points with one or more flounces on the skirt, which is vrorn
a very little shorter. For long serves those most used are aln jardi.
niere, whether in organdy, muslin, silk, or other material, they are full
with one or more frills on the shoulder, and a wristband, ruche, or
plaiting at the hand. Muslin redingotes, lined with silk, will be wry
much worn this summer; also muslin embroidered shawls, trimmed
with lace. Mantelets still continue in favour, also shawls of black filet
trimmed with the same or lace. • •

Capotes a coulisses, and straw bonnets are used for morning costume,
and for young people. Faille de riz, Legliorns, crape, and you de sole,
far dress bonnets. Blond and lace arc much used for trimmings, and
sometimes replace the ribbon ; the form is open, and deeper at the sides
than over the forehead, and worn much off the face. The Bibis bonnet
has re.appeared in Paris, made of crape. Plaid, shaded, and broche
ribbons are used, and a crape ribbon, both plain and figured, has been
introduced for bonnets of that material. All shades of grey are fashion.
able for bonnets and feathers; marabouts and branches of drooping
flowers ornament them, and ruches on the edge. For dresses green is
the fashionable colour this month, and foulards, moussclines de laine,
and pekinets rages in materials.

MORNING DRESS.—Peignoirs of pearl grey taffetas du Thibet, amine
riles, lined with green ; nceuds of green and grey shaded ribbon ; cap of
embroidered tulle, trimmed with points de Paris, and bows of ribbon to
match thoseon the dress, with long brides.
WALKING DRESS.—Redingote of puce (lamas ; collar of embroidered
muslin ; shawl of yellow cachemire ; capote of white you de soie, edged
with a ruche, a simple bow on one side, with pomegranates in the inte-
rior; manehettes of cambric, trimmed with fluted Vallenciennes lace.

A MELA NCIMLY OCCURRENCE.-FIVE MEN
DROWNED.—On Tuesday, the 17th current, Mr. Hogg, carrier at the
MeiVe River of Gruinard, Ress-shire, with four men, went out in a
small boat to bring in Mr. Young, Manager of the Ardross Fishing!,
and Donald Fraser, fox-hunter, who had gone to the island of Gruinard
to look after the sheep of Mr. Mackenzie of Ardross, and had been
storm-staid in the island for some days. The weather was most incle-
ment ; the wind blew a hurricane, and the showers of drift and snow
were exeessive. The boat had proceeded a short way from the shore
when it upset, and the whole crew were precipitated overboard. In a
short time the lifeless bodies of the five men were washed ashore on the
beach.

SHOCKING ACCIDENT BY FlRE.—Between six
and seven o'clock yesterday morning Mrs. Rumball, of No. 7, Carnal Cap_
alley, Southwark, was sitting near the fire, nursing her little girl, when
suddenly a spark caught her clothes, and in a few minutes she was in a
blaze. After some time Mrs. Rumball succeeded in extinguishing the
flames, but not until the poor child was dreadfully burnt ; the flesh
from her legs exhibiting a frightful appearance. The little sufftrer lies
with scarcely any hopes of her recovery.

On. the night of Ow 4:h instant, Cif t. Tyree, °ldle
ship Ceres, of Dartmouth, wai knocked down in one of the back studs
of Cardiff, and robbed of his watch. Three men, namely, John
John, Liverpool Dick, and David Evans, a smith, formerly of the
Quakers' Yard, have been fully committed to take their trial for this
heinous offence.—Cambrian.

COURTS-MARTIAL IN INDlA.—Lieutenants J.
P. Keating and P. R. Jennings, of her Majesty's I ftth Foot, have been
tried by Court.martial, at Meenheinrr,' for killing Captain Hughes, of
the Artillery, in a duel, in which the farmer was the principal and the
latter second: The Court recommender: Lieutenant Jennings to favour.
able consideration. Lieutenant 31. Kittoe, 6th NI , has also been sen.
tenced to he dismissed the service fur insubordinate and disrespectful
conduct to a superior officer.
SHIPWRECK.—We learn with deep regret that the
Choice, of this port, Captain John Forster, with coals to Hamburg, was
stranded near Schiermonnik.Ogg, on the 13th inst. The life-boat
twice attempted, but in vain, to reach the vessel ; and on making a third
effort, not a single man was to be seen on the wreck. It is supposed that
the hapless crew had left the ship, and perished its attempting to reach
ave since been driven on shore.—Sundcr. the land, as their two boats h
land Herald.
