COURT AND FASHION.

Although the Queen has not yet appeared publicly, her
Majesty, we are happy to hear, is almost convalescent
again. The infant princess is coming on finely. Prince
Albert and the junior members of the royal family have
taken their accustomed out-door exercise within the last
few days.

The Brighton Guardian states that the stripping of the'
Pavilion goes forward, and workmen are said to be en-
gaged at the present moment in taking down the chimney
pieces, with a view to their removal to Osborne House.

FASHIONS FOR APRIL.
(From the "London and Paris Ladies' Magazine of Fashion.")
All silk materials now assume a lighter tint, announcing
the approach of spring, and suitable either for day or can-
dle light ; many are of green glace and broche in a paler
shade, light blue plaids on narrow grounds; checks of
groseille colour on gray glace, with white shaded taffetas
figured in sprigs and large checks in white cerise and blue
on a deep blue ground ; each material has its peculiar
style of lace : application, for tulle ; Angleterre, on satin ;
Alencon on velvet; and for neglige Valenciennes and.
Mechlin.

In ball dresses three and even four skirts are worn of
tulle or crape, and of taffetas d'ltalie, pink, blue, or white,
with flounces entirely covering the skirt ; the corsages
continue pointed ; the new pelerines, for evening wear,
are with long narrow ends, edged with lace, put on a little
full ; these ends are intended to go round the waist and
tie behind in the style of the Antoinettes ; there is also
another style of cannezous, forming demi berthe, termed
ii la Roland, which is made of point lace, embroidered
muslin, or lace laid on. The round crowns termed jokeys
are fashionable for bonnets, and the newest form is rather
more open, and much ornamented with flowers ; the ca-.
potes termed Dolores, and another boigneuse, are amongst
the novelties of the moment. . Satin bonnets are some-
times ornamented by a scarf of black lace, placed two or
three times round the ends, falling at the side of the
crowns demi rondes. Capotes of white colours are lined
with white.

The caps worn, both in evening and neglige, are pretty,
the form is round, small and flat, the ornaments varying
according to fancy. Many small coiffures are made of
half-squares of Brussels lace ; the Valliere is composed of
lappets of lace falling at the back of the head without
concealing the hair. Pretty evening caps are made of
pink crape, covered with lace, having a rose and small
green foliage in front; pretty neglige caps are Tade of
tulle, edged with lace, and trimmed with narrow pink and
black velvet ribbon ; pretty little turbans are made of
laine, crape lisse, velours 4ingle, and damas, embroidered
in silver and gold ; they are placed very backward on the
head, leaving the ears uncovered.

THE LAST FRENCH REVOLUTION, IN SCRIP-

TURE PROPHECY.
(From the Church of England QuFterly Review.)

The correct interpretation of Daniel's seventy weeks
has been more disputed, and has called forth a greater
number of dissertations in support of different opinions,
than any other point connected with the prophetic an-
nouncements of the Messiah. The commencement it is
difficult to fix, historically, from the uncertainity con-
cerning all the early chronology, and especially that of the
times of Daniel ; and the true termination of the seventy
weeks has been also much disputed—some making them
to end at the birth of Christ—others at the commence-
ment of His ministry—others at the crucifixion : all of
which are partial or strained interpretations of the
prophecy.
The key to the right interpretation is to be found in
verse 27, where it is written, " He shall confirm the
covenant with many for one week ; and in the midst of
the week He shall cause the sacrifice and oblations to
cease "—that is, by his own death—the only true sacrifice.
The sense of the whole passage being that, for seventy
weeks, or four hundred and ninety years, the covenant of
God with the Jewish people should still subsist, and that
during the last week or the last seven years of that period
God would ratify the new, the Christian, covenant, with
many of them, in the midst of which week Christ would
be crucified : or, in other words, the Gospel would be
preached to the Jews exclusively for seven years, com-
mencing with our Lord's own personal ministry, which
continued for three years and a half, and terminating at
the conversion of Cornelius, when God first turned to the
Gentiles and when the Jews ceased to be His covenant
people, which conversion took place three years and a
half after the crucifixion. The seventy weeks of Daniel
thus manifestly terminate in the year 37 of the Christian
era, and they consequently had their commencement in
the four hundred and fifty-third year before the Incarna-
tion, the year beginning at that time in Abib, which
answers to our April, and not as at present in January.
But if the seventy weeks are to be reckoned from 453 B. c.,
then the vision which this explains, of the preceding
chapter, has the same commencement; and the long
period of 23,000 years would terminate within the year
which began in April, 1847, and will end in April, 1848.
We think that there is no flaw in this argument ; and the
second French Revolution, occurring thus within the time
supposed, appears to put the stamp of fact on these ex-
pectations, of which it is so striking a fulfilment.
And, as we have already intimated, we believe this to
be the last of the numbers which applies to the Christian
church, or of numbers that are given for our warning and
guidance; and it is in this sense that we ibOuld understand
the declaration that there would he time-no longer. ' A X 'X'
