auto.dale, the consumption of those many hundred
volumes openi a demand for as many more ; and
happy would the booksellers be ifthe next five hundred
copies of those works were treated in the same- man-
ner, anti so on- with successive publications—glad, in-
.deed, would our own booksellers be, if there were a
body- like the Romisb Missionaries in this country to
make an -annual sacrifice of their superfluous stock in
trade ; just as our manufacturers of Leeds or :Man-
chester, who feel the effects of their: own system of
over-production, would be delighted if agents from
Rome or any %there else were to buy up their broad
cloth or calicoes, and condemn them, as the work of
heretic hands, to be burnt to ashes. The Dutch.

traders knew this principle .better . than the Mission-
aries,- when they used to consume a proportion of their
spices to 'enhance the value of the remainder.

FEMALE FASHIONS FOR JULY, 1826.

(From La Belle AssembMe.)
CAARIAGR DRESS.—A pelisse of gros de Naples,
the colour of the ,Persith lilac ; the pelisse iv close
fastened down in front, where 1, ;pointed ornament is
carried down each side ;,tbe pbints bound round witl
=TO

rouleaux, and ,separafed over the fastening a
e skirt by one large full-wadded rouleau. Round
.he border of the skirt, about three inches above the
shoe, is en ornament set on straight across, of an en-
twined rouleau, forming a tire-bouchon. The body
is made quite plain, and the collar remarkably narrow.
Neither the 'ruff nor colerette is worn with. this pe-
lisse, but a row of large pearls encircles the throat.
The bonnet is white, and of the new cotton manufac-
ture, in imitation of chip, with a narrow Vandyke
blond at the edge of the brim : it is handsomely trim-
med about the crown with scrolls of Japanese gauze,
edged with white satin rouleaux, and very, slightly or-
namented with. Provence roses, one of which is placed
under the left side oldie brim ; the strings are in a loop,
and are of rich white ribbon, broad, and, edged round
with narrow blond. A parasol, of seatreen, with a
broad white fringe, completes the costume.
AFTERNOON HOME DRESS.--A TOUIId dress of
fine jaconot Maul, with five narrow flounces, set on
very full, and pointed. The sleeves full, and in the
chemisette style ; the width confined all the way up
the arm, at separate distances, by bands of embroider-
ed muslin. An elegant peterine of the same material
as the, dress, and richly. Ornamented with lace, is worn
over the shoulders ; it is left partially open in front,
whence a 'falling kind of collar turns back on each side,
forming an ornament something similar to a lapelle ;
this is also trimmed with lace: the corsage of the
dress, however, is entirely concealed in front by this
appendage ; and though it seems to form a part of the
dress, it is not of the cauezoa kind, but of a style per-
fectly novel. The hair is beautifully arranged in clus-
terea curls, smaller than those which have, of late, so
disguised the female countenance': a small cap is
worn over it, of rich blond, with a large full-blown
rose. on one side, and very long lappets depending over
each shoulder. The cap is placed more forward than
has been the mode for this sort of head-covering for
Some time. The jewellery ornaments are ear-rings,
necklace, and bracelets, of pearls and rubies, set a
Pantique. • •
