The Ruff in Queen Elisabe,h's Iime.--It is
stated in modern popular work, that the most
distinguished characteristic in Queen Ezabeth's
day, was the ruff. 1t was worn Of fsuch enormous
size that lady in full dress was obliged TO feed
herself acith spoon tro feet long! These ruffs
increased al such an alarming rate that in 1880
sumptuary laws became necessary. to reduce
them to reasonable dimensions. When these rutfs
were first introduced they were. of fine Holland !;
but early, in EHzabeths reign, they were made of
lawn and cambric, manufactured on the continent.
imported in very small quantities, and sold a. an
extravagant price, A writer of that day, de5crib-
ing this lawn says, " so strange and wonderful
was this stuff that thereupon arose general scott

Published on the first and fifteenth of every month
Each number contains l76 pages, Svo., at $l2 80
per annum.
80 The Revue DIES Deux Mondes has been formed
for the purpose of establishing intercourse in
the intellectual pursuits the most followed between
distinguished men Of Europe and America II is
proposed in this collection to give prominent
place to the affairs of the American Union, TO the
labors OF its politicians, and TO the Literary and
Scientific publications of its Authors. The Revue
DIES Deux Mondes now makes public appeal to
American Authors and Editors, by sending to it,
through Mr.. Putnam, of New York, a copy of each
of their publications The Revue is in a better po-
sition than any other organ in Europe to serve as
an intellectual link between the Old and the New
World, which has Editors and Contributors the
most eminent political, scientific, and literary men
of France. Many of its contributors have visited
North and South America, and it still counts among
them many OF the Diplomatic and Consular Corps.
Each number of the Revue, in addition to its articles
signed by the first names of France, contains under
the title Of Z" Chronque de la Quinzaine,' hstori
cal summary OF the principal events of the political
world, which will certainly be, for the American,
the most faithful picture of the European move
ments.
