FEMALE FASHIONS FOR APRIL.

EXTRACTED FROM " LA BELLE ASSEMBLES,'" FOR THE
PRESENT MONT H.
But little change has taken place in the style of dress since
our last communications. The season is too tar advanced for
variety, and it is as yet too early fur the introdudiOn of no-
velty. Much taste and fancy have, however, been displayed in
the assortment of colours. " We noticed on a lady of high rank
a dead le.r-toloured sarsnet mantle, made short, with a large
hood thrown open, tied with riband; the cldak was lined with
pink Persian, and ornamented at the edges with a satin Van-
dyke riband. The bonnet -to "correspond. On another a
mantle of drab-colourcd velvet; lined with pink, and a plain
satin riband round the -edge. And on a third, a mantle of
green "sarsnet, lined With orange. On her head she wore a tur-
ban bonnet, composed of 'Olds Of orange and green sarsnet.
Pelisses-begin to b.: worn short, in satin, trimmed with black
lace.

White chip hats are just introduced in the circles of fashion,
and we have considerable reason to suppose, that as the Slicing
advances they will entirely take place of the straw bonnets.
We cannot say too much in praise of them, though it is
scarcely necessary to. say any thing, as their delicate and ele-
gant simplicity will doubtless sufficiently recommend them.
For dinner or afternoon dresses, stuff's, sarsnets,velvcts, rind
cloths, continue to be worn, made just above the rise of ,the
bosom, and laced up the back, which is of correspondent
height with the front. Long sleeves, and quarter trains are
universal. Bands for the waist, .with gem-clasps. In full
or evenidg dress, the gowns are made with the utmost situ..
plicity, in the frock form. - White satin seems to have a de-
aided preerence, but figured sarsnets, embroidered crapes,
gossamer nets, Imperial gauze, Spanish bombazeens with
-black and white lace over white satin, all are seen on Ladies
of the first distintlion.

Sunday. se'nnight, a mcst melancholy accident
.happened, near Saltram Lodge, near Plymouth.--As
Mr. FREEMAN, a midshipman of his Majesty's ship
-Scipion, 74, was, with a brother Officer, uriving on
towards Ivy-bridge, in a gig, by careless driving,
•they got entangled in, the fore-wheel of the Clarence
-coaek, from Exeter, which precipitated. him diredly
twat. the hind-wheel of the coach, and his compa-
nion into the road. Mr. FRIMMAN, unfortunately,
was takeu up lifeless, the hind-wheel going over
his breast ; and, though surgical assistance was im-
mediately procured, the vital spark was fled. His
companioresaved his. life, though- much bruised in
the. fall.- No .blame attaches to the coachman of
• the Clarence coach on this sad business. The ver-
dia of the Coroner's Jury was—Accidental Death.,
We understand Mr. lIIEEMAN was of a respeaable
Irish family, and heir to 1,5001 a-year. •
His Royal Highness the Prince of Wales has made
a magnificent present to the University-of Oxford,
through their Chancellor, Lord GRENVILLE. He
has requested - the Noble Lord. to present to that
Learned Body, in his name, the whole of the Papyri
rescued out of the ruins of *Herculaneum, which
were presented to him by the .King of. Sicily, toge-
ther with those which his Royal Highness has been
the means of obtaining by his own exertions., toge-
ther with all the fruits of the labours employed in
recovering the text. The Learned Body have ex-
pressed their rnost lively gratitude for this most gra-
cious mark of 'his attention.. And, we -have no
doUbt, but.that the ingenuity and industry, of their
best scholars will be employed in still *further bring-
ing to light the contents of the treasures they haire
received.

At the Wexford Assizes; a Jury impannelled to
try a.petti assault, not agreeing in a verclia,, were -
locked up a day and a night ; and at the expiration, of ,
that period, not being unanimous, they were con--
veyed to the bounds.of the county and discharged.
A, decent looking man has been committed for:
trial at Plymouth; standing charged, on his own COll-
- with having murdered a person near Mod-,,
bury, in Devon, about eight years since. . •
Friday night, the warehouse of, Mr..WATsoisT, of
Watling :street, was broke open; arid' robbed of up-
wards of thirty pieces of superfine cloth.
