FASHIONS FOR NOVEMPRR:

(From the Court 111a3az10e.)
Winter mat• rims will this year surpass, bath in richnes4
and variety, those of many preceding season. Gros pi in •
cease, plain satin, reps, and Cashmere, ate exJected to be
most fashionable in out doors dress, for which the only
❑ovelties that have yet appeared are pelisses of the three
first of these materials. A good many have the fronts of
the skirts ornamented in a very complicated manner, by
interlaced bands, reversed dents, and rouleaus disposed in
a very novel style. The skirts both of pelisses and robes
are of a still more extravagant width than last season;
they are set on in double and even triple pl sits, in order
that they may fall in folds to the very bottom.

The materials of hats and bonnets are changed, but as
yet the forms remain the same. Those of black satin,
lined with coloured velvet, or coloured satin with black
velvet, are most fashionable. Myrtle green, bleu Haiti,
orange, and rose, are the colours contrasted with black,
They are trimmed with flowers, or aigrettes, formed of
ends of gauze riband ; in either case the trimming corres-
ponds with the colours of the head dress.
Some of the new bonnets are of satin only, and lined
with the same colour; but the trimming consists of flowers
and ribands, in which black is very predominant. A
pretty bonnet of this description is of rose-coloured satin,
trimmed with rose-coloured gause riband figured with
black ; a band of which, arched in front, is brought round
the upper part of the crown ; it terminates in a rosette on
one side, the ends of which descend upon the brim. A❑
aigrette, formed of sprigs of hyacinths, partly black and
partly rose colour, completes the trimming.
Furs are expected to be very much in favour, parti-
cularly sable. It is supposed, however, that as the seasen
advances, ermine will regain some of its ancient vogue,
though it is by no means likely to equal sable in estimation.
Fine (lark chinchilla and squirrel back will rank next to
ermine and sable. The Isabella bear is likely to be in
request in evening dress : it is a favourite fur of the
Queen's ; her Majesty weals it very frequently.
It is yet too soon to say much of the forms in which
furs will be employed ; but boas, we understand, are likely
to continue in favour. A new kind of tippet, and a fancy
snuff, both just imported front Paris, and as yet scarcely
seen in either country, are to be introduced. The first
will form an elegant finish to a dress, being a pointed
pelerine, with epaulettes also pointed. The muff is one
of those fancies that are likely to be temporary: it is
extremely small, and made in such a manner as to form
at once a muff and reticule. We suspect that it is likely
to be adopted only by the merveilleuses of both countries.
The colours that will be most in favour are marshmal-
lows, green of different shades, chesnut, bleu Haiti, ruby,
orange, brown, and rose colour.

WALKING DRESS.-Hat of satin royal, of a new shade
called triance Brinvilliers. The front of the bat is
rounded at the lower part, and the crown is square or
four-cornered at the top; it is trimmed with a rich satin
riband, called ruban foulard ; and a single long ostrich
feather springs from the bow, which is placed high, and
rather towards the right side of the front of the calotte.
The hair is parted on the brow, and the two braids, en fer
a cheval, are brought down at the sides of the face, and
turned up again. Over the dress is a manteau Bouyard,
of satin, tritnined with swan's down. The cloak is con-
siderably shorter than the dress ; it is rounded at the
corners, and has a large round collar in style of a cape
and large " gigot" sleeves, in the front of which are arm-
holes. This cloak may either be fastened at the waist
with a ceinture, or left loose, the wrap in style of a Vit-
choura, white mu-lin trousers, bottiness of satin royal.
(From Bell's World of Fashion.)
MORNING DRESS.—A carriage dress of emerald green
Lithuanian silk ; the corsage square, and perfectly tight
to the shape, having four plaits, draped en caw, front the
shoulders to the point of the waist (which is confined by
a rich Cordelier and tassels of black silk) ; the drapery of
the skirts is so arranged as to divide from this point in
front, and fall gracefully on each side en tablier. The
Amadis sleeves have their fulness at the top gathered in,
and fastened by two coquettish little tassels attached to a
double cord, that reaches to the shoulders ; there are no
cuffs, or any ornament on the lower part of the sleeve.
With this dress, combining the chief requisites of an ele-
gant toilet, richness and simplicity, is worn a small hat
en capote, of full rose colour gros d'lnde—it is placed
very touch on one side, and has no ribands ; two beautiful
white ostrich feathers wave over the crown, and brides of
broad tulle edged with white blond float carelessly, and
firm almost a scarf fur the neck ; a similar blond is sewn
as a tucker round the corsage. Earrings of enamel and
gold (the lozenge pattern), black kid slippers, and white
silk gloves.

EVENING DRESS. —A splendid costume, worn last week
at the celebration of very distinguished nuptials, composed
of Levantine satin; the colour the palest rayon du soleil,
on saffron. The corsage is qui•e new, and called the
paladin ; it has no point, hut is confined round the waist
by four linked circlets of Vain gold ; the Alit is un-
adorned, except by three bows, placed en guir/ande, from
each at which springs a bouquet of orange blossoms. The
chernisetre and long, sleeves are of blond lace, the former
being gathered into a little collar of black Venetian chain
work, and the latter finished by cuffs of white satin ala
Marie Stuart. The headdress, though it is borrowed
from the lovely bridesmaid, p irt of its attraction is calcu-
lated to embellish any features. A long veil of the most
transparent blond is fixed round the comb at the back of
the head (a twisted bow of hair rising above), it falls
entirely over the shoulders, and down nearly to the feet
behind; a spray of orange blossoms rises like a feather in
the bow of hair, whilst a corona! of Venetian Mosaic
comes low upon the forehead ; the hair is divided and
drtssed in very full glossy curls on each side. Venetian
earrings, lace stockings, and hl irk satin sandalled slippers.

COURT CARRIAGES.—At the Congress of
Vienna, the Emperor of Austria wishing that none of the
Sovereigns or persons of their suite should use any car-
riages but his, ordered three hundred to he prepared all
alike. At every hour of the day and night, these carriages
were at the service of his illustrious visiters—some of than
with four horses, others with two, were to be met with in
every direction ; the effect was surprisingly good.
Lord S— never forgave thc.: late Mr.
Heber for the active part he took in the election of Lord
Grenville as Chancellor of the University of Oxford, whose
success was mainly owing to the exertions of Heber. Lend
Eldon was the defeated opponent.

A lame black, unable by his own exertions
to procure his food, was looked upon as rather an useless
member of his society. After his associates were tamed
they called him "The lawyer," because, said they, " he
rats al: the grub that, other people catch."—Hobart
Town Carrier.

How TO GET A TIGHT RING OFF A
FP:GER.-Thread a needle, fiat in the eye, with strong
thread ; pass the head of the needle with care under the
ring, and pull the thread through, a few inches towards
the hand ; wrap the long end of thread tightly round the
finger, regularly, all down to the nails, to reduce its size.
Then lay hold of the short end of the thread, and unwind
it. The thread pressing against the ring, will gradually
remove it from the finger. This never failing method will
remove the tightest ring without difficulty, however much
swollen the finger may be.

FIRSTINTRODUCTIONOF THE SHERIDANS
TO FASHIONABLE LIFE.—It was at the house of the pre-
sent Dowager Countess of Cork, then as now, remarkable
for its admixture of literary and fashionable society, that
the late Duchess of Devonshire was struck by the singing
of a very beautiful young woman, who was represented
to her as a professional person, just married to an Irish
gentleman of literary connections. " She is a charming
creature, and I should like very much to have her at De-
vonshire-house," said the Duchess. " But what shall we
do about the husband ? He is such an odd-looking per-
son, and the Duke so much dislikes arrangers ! I scarcely
know how to manage it." Yrt within a year the odd-
looking man was the most favourite guest and distin-
guished ornament of the circle of Devonshire House ; the
Duke himself, a scholar of no mean attainments, being
often unable to tear himself away from the fascinating
society of the all-accomplished Sheridan ! Court Journal
Mr. Torn (alias Sir W. Couttenay) was
yesterday (Monday) morning removed from the county
gaol to the county lunatic asylum, on Hawing Heath.
His removal has been regulated by the provisions of the
9th Geo. IV., c. 40, which provides for the management
of prisoners who have become insane since their conviction.
If" Sir William" had been known to be Mr. Tom pie
viously to his trial, he would probably have been tried by
a Jury as to his sanity. The same evidence would then
have perhaps prevented hit trial for perjury, and be would
have been imprisoned in a lunatic asylum during pleasure.
On receiving an intimation that his removal was deter-
mined on he exprt ssed his willingness to go anywhere with
the Governor, to whom he had become much attached.
At the Asylum lie will have many comforts and conveni-
ences which the gaol could not furnish ; and it is to be
hoped that his unfortunate malady will be so far subdued
at the end of his seven year,' incarceration as to cure him
of any further wish to represent the Canterbury Tories in
Parliament, however well he may do so in his present
abode.--Maidstone Gazette.
