BEAUTIFUL BIJOU.

"-Ucssrs. Crosby, Nichols, & Co., Ill, Wash
ington street, Boston, have sent us one of the
prettiest pieces Of Holiday Bijouterie that we
have seen for many day. 1t consists of a min.
iatnrc volume printed in tip.top style, with gill
ded cover and gilt-edged leaves, containing a
poetical history Of Fanny Gray, accompanied by
six elegant cards illustrating some of the most
picturesque events of her life, in colored litho-
graph, or, TO speak more to purpose, showing
how pretty girl looks in six different situations,
and "a many different costumes, in short, exib-
It's one head upon half dozen pair Of shoulders,
with the changes which dress produces upon
the same face and features; for Fanny's head, in
stead Of becoming turned rs some girls heads
sometimes are by their finery, Is so contriyed a.
to slip oil, when she gets too fond OF one dress,
and Is put on TO q new pair of shoulders, in a
new form and in new suit Of clothes, winding
up in the rich costume Of womanhood, with a
pet greyhound by her side. The fret ofthe Sc
ries OF pictures represents the cottage where
Fanny was born, with a sylvan stream crossed
by beautiful bridge, and shaded by the noble
oak tree that shadows lis garden. The whole
OF these pictures, with the portable head piece
Of the heroine, and the little volume of letter
press history, are put up in an ornamental box
superbly colored and embcllisbed by gold aud
fancy colored designs, among which i Fanny In
blue and gold, feeding her chickens. We can
hardly imagine any thing prcttier than too little
girls engaged Ia enjoying il together one read
Ing the verses describing the pictures shown,
and the other putting the parts in their proper
places"
