FASHIONS FOR NOVEMBER.

MORNING DRESS.—The dress is a half pelisse robe of
dark blue satin, the corsage high behind, but opening in the
heart style on the bosom, is trimmed with a falling collar,
and lappels of velvet to correspond. Sleeve of rather a large
size, the upper part ornamented with folds. The chemisette,
which is displayed by the make of the dress, is bordered
with antique point lace, and the collar and cuffs are compos-
ed of the same : the skirt is trimmed down one side of the
front by five rouleaus of the same material, which, rounding
off as they approach the bottom, encircle the skirt. White
gros d'Afrique hat, an oval brim, the interior is ornamented
at the sides with velvet flowers ; a drapery of Brussels lace
ornaments the exterior of the brim on one side, and a sprig
of flowers issues from it on the other.
PUBLIC PROMENADE DRESS.—Green figured Gros de
Naples robe, the corsage a three-quarter height, plain be-
hind, but disposed in fan folds on the breast : the sleeves are
demi large at the lower part, but finished with volans at
the top : the skirt is ornamented with two volans. Fawn-
coloured satin shawl ; the form is that of a mantelet a schall:
it is made with a deeply pointed hood, lined with white gros
de Naples, and trimmed with a rich black and fawn-coloured
chenille fringe, headed by a band of black velvet, and an em-
broidery in black chenille. White red velvet bonnet, a round
brim of very moderate size, descending low on the cheeks ;
small horizontal crown, trimmed with ribbon to correspond,
and a white ostrich feather, which, inserted in the ribbon,
droops upon the brim. Collar and cuffs of antique point lace.
CARRIAGE DRESS.—PaIe maize-coloured you de Sole
robe, corsage en cceur, and Victoria sleeve. Brown Levan-
tine cloak, lined with green satin, and trimmed with a blas
band of dark green velvet. The cloak is of the pelisse form,
confined to the waist behind in close folds. The pelerine is
pointed at the back, but forms a heart in front, displaying
very advantageously the upper part of the bust ; a rich cor-
deliere completes the trimming. Brown velvet hat, an oval
brim lined with grey satin, and trimmed at the sides in a very
novel manner with brown ribbon : the crown, rather deeper
than they are generally made, is ornamented with shaded
ribbon, and two party-coloured willow feathers.
EVENING HEAD DRESS.—A turban formed of a white lace
scarf, the front is disposed in a soft twisted roll, terminating
in floating ends, each surmounted by a marabout entwined
round it, and a rose.

CARRIAGE HAT.—It is composed of light green velvet ;
the exterior of the brim is trimmed with a drapery edged
with lace; ribbons and a sprig of flowers complete the trim-
ming. _

DINNER CAP.—Composed of tulle, and decoroted with a
wreath of small flowers twisted round the front.

DEATH OF LORD GEORGE BERESFORD.-It is with sin-
cere regret we record the demise of the Right Hou. Lord
George Thomas Beresford, G.C.H., brother to his Grace the
Lord Primate of all Ireland, and uncle to the Marquis of
Waterford, which melancholy event took place on Saturday
morning, at the Palace, Armagh. His Lordship was a Ma-
jor-General in the army—and by his death a vacancy occurs
in the colonelcy of the 3rd or K. 0. Light Dragoons—and
also in that of the Waterford Militia. His Lordship was
custos rotulorum of the county of Waterford, which lie re-
presented for many years in parliament. Lord Geo. Beres-
ford was Comptroller of the Household during the reign of
His Majesty George IV., and was distinguished for every
good quality that could aorn human nature, and endear him
to society.—Tipperary Constitution.
