The mantilles, mantelets, demi-pelisses, little Aletots,
are all made this season of plain or glace taffetas, the
trimmings generally of frills, pinked in two or three rows
at the back, two of which terminate at the arm, falling as
a sleeve_ on the hand ; the third is continued round the

style is the mantillon, and is small in form, resembling
the mantelet in shape without the ends ; the pardessus
Milanais is of taffetas d'ltalie glace, with triple border of
lace. The new bonnets are round in form, and jockey
crowns continue in favour. Some bonnets are of a more
open form, and these require more ornament inside. Some
are made entirely of ribbon, others of mohair and straw,
and of gimp and straw; but the Parisian ladies always
give the preference to Leghorns, for which they reserve
their ostrich. marabout, and heron feathers. A new tissu

de paille is mac

retty bonnet de fantaisit," The capote casteuane of pink
atin, covered with blacelace, forming fichu on the crown,
nd voilette at the edge. ornamented inside with roses, is

very generally admired. Fancy straws are ornamented by
wild flowers, foliage, bunches of the peach and apricot
blossom, &c. Various simple and pretty. caps Ire made
for neglige, all of a round form, and many owe much of
their beauty to a new kind of foliage ribbon, which forms

thers, are reserved for evening wear ; meuds of velours
epingle are worn in the hair, and many pretty coiffures
are made of bugles in every colour. Bracelets are univer-
sally in favour, large or small, .rich or gimple, in every va-
riety of 'Material. one or. more at pleasure. The Clulte-

VOLUNTARY EASTER OFFERING.---OR Easter Tuesday
the Mayor of Newcastle, accompanied by Mr. Willium
Young, the senior churchwarden of St. Nicholas, and Mr.
William Gibson, the treasurer to the fund, waited upon
the Rev. R. C. Coxe, A.M. at the Vicarage, and pre-
lim with the sum of £450 as a voluntary Easter

rented

offering from the inhabitants of the town, thus affording
a substantial proof of the estimation in which the worthy
vicar is held. A similar offer has been presented for the
three previous years, and on each occasion has been sub-
scribed in a few days. It is deeply to be regretted that
the income attached to the vicarage is so small and in-
adequate.
