GENERAL OBSERVATIONS.

Spanish hats, which have been worn all the winter, with fea-
thers, for full dress, are now converted into walking hats, substi-
tuting flowers instead of feathers. Straw hats and bonnets, Or-
namented with flowers, znd white silk hats, are making their
appearance for the season. Light silk mantles, of all colours, are
rruei worn. Spencers, of a beautiful grey, ornameuted with
silver, not buttoned, but tied loosely at the neck, form a most ele-
gant dress. '; he Scotia silk is now in great releest for dresses,'
as alit, the spotted muslin, Colours vary with the taste of the
individeal; silver grey is unquestionably the most elegant and the
most fashionable. The attempt to introduce long waists has com-
pletely failed ; they have not, nor will they ever become fashion-
able. The full dress of this number is the present standard.
