AN ODD CosTUME.-A correspondent of the
pHlIsdelphia Sun, now travelling in Europe,
tous speaks of the costume of the peasant girls
Of the town of Giessen, in Hesse Darmstadt:-
" The female peasants wear here, the most pc.
culiar dress have yet seen. Their hair, gen.
orally Of light color, is cut of close behind,
while on the top it is gathered into tight
plat, and folded round and round, forming q
projection resembling very much an oval
crown. On this is generally placed black
cap, Just covering it, either plain or orna-
mented with q fow beads, or worsted work,
with two broad full tabs falling over the ears,
and tied under the chin The neck is bare,
and the arms, shoulders, and bust, covered
with plain, smooth body, without fold or
plat, fitting tight to the arms and wrists-in
this, very much resembling boys Jacket,
whiie the skirt, made very full, goes right
straight cut from the hips for several inches
before 1t curves and hangs down. The effect
must be produced by an enormous hustle, or
something of that kind. Whatever it may be,
It Is enormous indeed. The most exaggerated
caricature Of the effect Of coffee bag skirts,
Dc, on the dresses Of our ladies, q few years
ago, will give you but faint idea of the dres.
L am ate npting to describe. This skirt
reaches to about an inch below the knee, and
here it las attained diameter of about a
yard and half, and circumference, (since
tina: ps-t of the circle is thl se times the dia-
neter,) Of four yards and more The dress is
always CT blue, coarse muslin, or woollen
stuff, and by coarse, blue, tight fitting stock
ing covers the calf and ankle-the first e1-
tremely wei developed, and the last often well
turned. and no means despicable, while
heavy, hob-nalled shoe completes the cos
tune From the skirt down, nothing ia the

Oh, come back soon. oh, come back soon,
My heart Is sad without thee, - 80.
There Is no tight, IN sun or moon,
So sweet a. that about thee;
The sky looks cold, the breezes sigh,
Each scene II dark and lonely;
Earth holds for me no peace or Joy
But In thy presence only.
Oh, come back soon, oh, come back soon,
Though other hearts may greet thee
With smile and song, and pleasures tune,
None half so fond win meet thee;
Though kind a. d fervent they may prove,
When festal cups are flowing;
They ne'er can feel the constant love
That In my breast is glowing.
oh, come back soon, oh, come back soon,
Back to these sylvan bowers;
When thou art far there Is no boon
Can cheer the lonely hours. @
Return, and they viii glide away
Like dreams Of sweetest pleasure,
And thou shalt prove the strength OF love
No ea:thly bounds can measure.
