FASHIONS FOR JULY.

(From the London and Paris Ladies' Magazine of

Fashion.)
MORNING NEGLIGE.—Robe of baiste de laine, pous-
siere, with fichu of plain cambric, and collar a chale, and
plain manchettes. Fancy straw bonnet edged, and with
plaid ribbon ; scarf of black silk, with frill pf the same.
TOILETTE DE VISITE.—Robe of barege in pattern
of pale colour, corsage and sleeves a petites - con-
lisses, and deep tucks edged With fringe. Blau.'{
taffetas scarf, with ruche. Bonnet of crape fronce
violette of lace and flowers, corresponding with
the dress ; handkerchief with inlets of Valenciennes,
manchettes and collar trimmed with Valenciennes. The
corsages continue to be made tight, and with points ;
corsages grand' mere a l'Amazon, with gimp trimmings,
and those a chale or revers, are also worn ; for young
ladies they are generally square, or with -folds, and in
thin materials they are made a coulisses. Tight sleeves
still maintain their ground, but they are variously orna-
mented, and the small gigot of moderate fullness at the
shoulder, and tight on the lower part of the arm, is
fashionable.
Generally speaking, tucks have replaced flounces,
though they are sometimes used for tall figures ; tucks
are frequently, edged with fringe or lace, or folds rise en
tablier, en echelle, or in a wave ; for silk pink ruches
are used, and on muslins, inlets of Valenciennes, and
embroidery.
Dresses of pink or blue organdy, worked in tambour,
with silk of the same colour, are very pretty for public
dejeuners. Organdy of deep blue are quite the rage in
Paris.

Scarfs continue to be worn in every variety ; the most
elegant are of lace, Ottomane velvet, and real cachemere,
with plain centres and pines ends, or figured in Asiatic
bouquets ; then follow those of foulard, shaded silks, barege,
muslin, &c. &c. The newest and must fashionable style
of pocket handkerchief is with inlets of Valenciennes
all round. Bonnets are now much ornamented, lace and
flowers intermixed ; the form continues small, partaking
very much of the capote. Straw bonnets, trimmed with
velvet of two colours, with ruche inside, are pretty.
Leghorns are mostly ornamented with lace, or wreaths
a la Ceres, in poppies, daisies. &c.: honeysuckle is also
seen, but the most elegant are those of hydrangea in
every colour.

SUDDEN DEATH THROUGH EXCITEMENT
AT rxx CITY ELECTION.—Last evening Mr. Payne held an
inquest at the School-room, Walbrook, on the body of Frede-
rick Beasant, aged 54, employed as messenger during the late
City election, on the Whig side. It appeared that 'about eleven
o'clock on Tuesday morning, as deceased was hurrying along
through George-street, Mansion-house, he was seen to stagger,
and then fall down suddenly on the foot pavement. He fell at
Mr. Hampton's door, whose clerks reneered him every a-sist-
ance until the arrival of the police. Several medical men
were sent for, and Dr. Bell, of Walbrook, came ; when he
arrived he found deceased had died of an effusion of blood on
the brain, or apoplexy, caused most probably not by over-ex-
ertion, but rather by over-excitement. Verdict—" Died of
apoplexy."

Preparations, on a large scale, are making at
Hamburgh for a grand musical festival, which is to take place
ou the 4th, 6th, and Bth July. The performers will amount
to 900, and the expenses of such as are not residents at Ham-
burgh, will be paid out of a subscription raised shy the mer-
chants and richer inhabitants, which already amounts to about
80,000 mares banco (150,000*. ) The performances are to
take place according to their nature, in the Church of St. Mi-
chael, the grand theatre, and the hall of Apollo.
THUNDER STORM.—On Friday a thunder-
storm visited this city, the electric power of which surpassed
anything.of the kind in memory, and the darkness was awful.
The raimushed down with impetuous force, mingled with hail,
stones, and the thunder told its near approach with a noise
and effect equal to that of cannon, as if absolutely tearing
up the very pavement of ,he streets. The sensation was pro-
foundly grand and sublime. The saving mercy of Providence
was evinced during the above awful thunder-storm, in a
truly marked and gracious manner. A portion of the
electric fluid struck the angle of one of the main wall-
of 13allymacreese house, the residence of James Shine, Esq.,
who was then sitting up stairs in the parlour with two ladies
and some of his children. 'I he lightning shattered a wall three
feet thick, ran down the chimney, and but st into the park%
with an astounding shock, displacing a large stone over the
mantelpiece, but then most providentially was attracted at this
instant by the bell-wire, along which it shot down througl,
the floor into the lower rooms, following this miracu-
lous conductor, burning the paper of the walls for several
inches at both sides, and melting the hell-wire, leaving a mos-
sulphurous smell throughout its rapid progress, accompanied
by a dense mist or smoke. The servants in the kitchen were
knocked against each other and fell, and a girl in a distant
room of the house had some glass broken in her hands in the
act of removing to the pantry. The stunning shock of this
dreadful visitation was felt for hours after by Mr. Shine and
all the inmates, who have to thank Heaven for their escape
under circumstances so awfully extraordinary.—Limerick
Chronicle.

LOSS OF THE WILLIAM DEO w.O

Captain George L. Harris, o the ship Will owv,

of whose melancholy loss our readers are

yesterday and furnished us with several facts relative IF
that vessel, which we have never seen stated, and which
we deem of sufficient' interest to warr.,nt their Publica-
tion. The Captain speaks of his mate as naturally $ 'err
humane man, and of his crew as being " as gym, a el,e
las he would ever wish to .sail with." He is of opinion
that their conduct has been judged of rather too harsh'n: s

which, although they do not, to our mind, justify alhlthat

would seem unnexessary acts of cruelty. Ile sta . e

remainder. The boat was so crowded il'at it was iftrsf
sible even to use the oars, and in lab

that he did not wish to anticipate this event, And llle-
the mate not to do so until found to be indispzzaisah, Y„si.,

awakened too hastily to be able to save any portOve _

and that it would have been little better than suiclo„ceser
