.coming from Watibrd in a gig, the horse took'
fright in Edgware-road, and ran against a lamp-post

hurt, and conveyed home in a coach.

hurricane, and the sea running mountains high, the
brig Young Edward, Coutm, of Dover, with coals,

land in the boat ; but the Captain, willing to save
every little he could, wished to venture once more to
the ship ; when five other captains volunteering to go
with him, they put off in a boat; but,' before they

with crape, lace, figured gauses or plain muslins. In drawing
dresses, a variety of trimmings in artificial flowers are worn, but
here again the sleeves are worn Itmg, to Conceal th- quirk re.
lation of blood in the arms. Oft the head of a very interestiq
girl we noticed a simple wreath of butter curs, wbich !ling vets
flat on the hair, was very becoming.
Shoes are worn for walking `...) urrespond with the drese,te.t
where the colours will admit of a contrast, tie white moroc.o
for the promenade seems to be preferred ; sandals are in much
esteem, the toes of the shoes are also somewhat m. taprr:—
spying heels are coming in; a little rise in the heels sit,
pretty instep and ancle to great advantage, and by advancing the
body gives an easy gait to the carriage.
The prevailing colours for the season are pale blue. lilac, and
lilac shot with pink, pale yellow, pink, straw, la7e.id..r hketr,
amber shot with white, and apple green.
