FASHIONS FOR OCTOBER.

(From the " London and Paris Ladies' Magazine of Fashion.")
The autumnal dresses are frequently ornamented with
velvet of contrasting colour, and the demilongue sleeve-
pointed cuffs, fixed by a velvet nceud, and on the flounces
several rows of narrow velvet. The form of dresses varies
but little : corsages are always tight, ornamented in a va-
riety of ways, revers brandenbourgs formed of chefs in
guimpe, with buttons ; a new style of guimpe trimming
forms a series of leaves, imitating oak, &c., placed con-
trariwise from the throat to the bottom of the skirt, in-
creasing gradually in size. Among the newest materials
for travelling dresses and robes de chambre is the chatoy-
ante. It is of grey worsted Chene, with large check of
red, orange, or blue silk, made with a single deep flounce,
en biais, and corsage guimpe also en biais. The skirts
seem to be increasing still in length, and are worn shorter
in front. A pretty novelty for walking dresses are those
of cachemire, with application of cachemire on the front of
the corsage, and chatelaine in rich rosaces, pines, &c.
Redingotes are very much worn, and generally in the
amazone style, but shorter, sometimes of the waistcoat
form, showing the muslin chemisette.
Bonnets begin to assume an autumnal appearance,
capotes of crape are often ornamented with velours epingle.
Capotes of taffetas are made with pinked trim Tings, and
noeuds of velvet inside, the deep colour of which forms
contrast to the light bonnet. Neglige bonnets of fancy
straw are lined with gros de Naples, and ornamented in-
side by poppies and tulle of paille color, with double ba-
volette of taffetas, pinked and simple nmuds and brides of
pinked taffetas. Cock's feathers will be again fashion-
able, one half black, the other green, blue, or any con-
trasting colour. Another novelty are the marabouts and
follettes glaces, with the natural wings of insects, the varied
tints having much effect both by candle-light and in the
sun. New mantelets are in preparation for the autumn ;
the prettiest are of cashmere satin, and satin de Chine.
Many new styles of trimming will also be introduced in
manteaux ; the Girondins of black, or very dark coloured
satin, the reine Marguerite of velvet, and the Marie
Stuart, are spoken of,

SASSAFRAS CHOCOLATE

DR. DE LA MOTTE'S NUTRITIVE, HEALTH
RESTORING AROMATIC CHOCOLATE,
PREPARED FROM THE NUTS OF THE SASSAFRAS TREE.
Sold by the Patentee, 12, Southampton-street,
Strand, London.

THIS CHOCOI ATE contains the peculiar virtues of
of the Sassafras Root, which' has been long held in great
estimation for its purifying and alterative properties. The
aromatic quality (which is very grateful to the stomach) most
invalids require for breakfast and evening repast, to promote
digestion, and to a deficiency of this property in the customary
breakfast supper, :nay in a great measure be attributed the
frequency of cases of indigestion generally termed bilious. It
has been found highly beneficial in correcting the state of the
digestive organs, &c., from whence arise many diseases, such
as eruptions of the skin, gout, rheumatism, and scrofula. In
cases of debility of the stomach, and a sluggish state of the
liver and intestines, occasioning flatulence, costiveness, &c.,
and in spasmodic asthma, it is much recommended.

My duty to make kmiwn to t

judge fo'r themselves of a fact which came under my own
observation. _ _ _ _

On Wednesday week, about midnight, I had occasion
to come down Park-road and past St. Patrick's Chapel.
When close to the wall on the south side of the chapel,
on the vacant ground which is a depositary for broken
earthenware, &c. I observed something moving back-
wards and forwards.' The moon being clouded, I could
not distinguish its form ; and my curiosity being awa-
kened, I stepped softly towards the object, and, to my
astonishment; found a poor Irishman, bare headed and

himself, and going through all the several movements of
one doing " extreme penance." On speaking to him, he
requested I would not disturb his devotions, or interrupt
him. I accordingly withdrew, and round the corner of
the wall remained several minutes to witness the poor
deluded man continue his supposed meritorious exercises.
The time of the night, the situation, and all the circum-
stances in connection, in my opinion fully corroborate
what I have always firmly believed—that the Papists in
this country actually "do penance." May the Lord in
his mercy speedily deliver us and our favoured land from
such abominations !—I am, sir, most respectfully yours,
ANTI-POPERY.
[The writer of the foregoing is a highly respectable
gentleman, and has furnished us with his name.]

STEEPLE CHASE AT AlNTREE.—Yesterday rather a
spicy affair came off at Aintree, which was, we believe,
trot-up after dinner at Hooton, on the day of the Stour-
on steeple-chase. The thing became known only on Sa-
turday, but this day being remarkably tine, it drew to-
gether some hundreds of spectators. It was over the

'regular Liverpool steeple-chase course, and was, we be-
lieve, for a sweep of 10 soya. each. The horses were
entered in fictitious names, we therefore only give the
names by which they were entered, and those of the
riders—weight, 12st. each.

The race was run in twelve minutes, and was won only
by a short half-length. On the road from the race-course
there was a trotting match between two horses in harness
—a most dangerous thing, to say the best of it, on a pub-
lic road, at any time, and most particularly so when that
road was thronged with people returning from a race.

HOUSE OF COMMONS.-TUESDAY

Mr. EWART brought forward his motion for the aboli-
tion of the punishment of death, which was opposed by
Sir G. GREY, who said that there was no species of
punishment which excited such terror in the minds of
those inclining to crime as did this, nor was he prepared
to admit that public opinion was in favour of its entire
•
abolition.
The motion was lost by 81 to 40.

Of obtaining agricultural statistics ; and the object of this
bill was to create the machinery by which they could-be

sown upon this land. The returns were to be annual ;

and the Registrar would return them to his Superintend-

and forwarded to the Board of Trade, by whom they
would be reduced into proper form, to be submitted to

took advantage of this motion to call
he Secretary of the Colonies again to

the subject of such proposed alterations in our penal sys-
tem as- regarded criminals on whom sentence of transpor-
tation, should hereafter pass. He was, if possible, more
strongly impressed than ever with the danger and incon-
venience of the scheme of punishment proposed by her
Majesty's Government to supersede the former system of
transportation. The commutation of punishment was a
prerogative of the Crown, a prerogative proposed in this
instance to a length which he could not but think was a

great abuse of ii
Earl GREY repeated what he had said on Friday, to the
effect-that, under the system proposed to be superseded,

entenced to transportation, when the time did
not extend beyond seven years, were in a great many in-
stances retained in the country, at hard labour in the
hulks, so that the change now meditated by the Govern-

Mr: ROEBUCK proposed a resolution to the effect that

PROTESTANTISM IN NOTTINGHAM.—It seems from a
letter written by the Rev. P. P. Blakeney, incumbent of
one of the churches in Nottingham, that the leading men
of that town have made a determined effort to put down
the meetings of the Protestant Reformation Society.
They have been' prevented holding their meetings in the
-National School, although offering to -contribute haiyl-

may be usually hired for any purpose, has been denied
them. The society then turned their attention to the
Exchange, thinking that surely the liberal (so .called)

sion, would not refuse the room to a respectable society,
composed of so many of their own townsmen. The mayor
was applied to, and at once granted the room, but, lo !

next day, a note came from the mayor

formity with their advice, he could not'accede to the ap-

plication, as " many in the town were opposed to the so-
ciety." Strange that about seven or eight months lie-
fore, " tho Auti-State Church Association" had held a
large meeting in the Exchange ! strange, that about four
months after, that very room was dedicated to the recep-
tion of a Romish bishop !! ! Mr. Blakeney thinks it will
appear that the refusal of the Exchange was part of a de-
