From lie Follet-1
Velvet will be much worn this winter. It is also
said that even satin will regain some of its former
favor. In the mean'ime, silk wayen with velvet,
win constitute one Of the most prevailing faorics;
and we shall doubtless see much beauty az we'll as
novelty displayed in the designs. The combination
OF these materials is already familiar to Us.
Win fouRces be worn this winter? On consulting
our eleganses, we might ans wer Ia the affirmative
However, mOdistes assure that they will
not be so much in request and they are endeavour-
ing to replace them by every variety OF trimming.
Dresses are much trimmed on each side Of the
skirt; narrow velvet, in arabesque or Grecque pat
terms, sometimes entirely cover the front breadth
this an attempt to supersede oUnces- Trimmings
also placed round The skirt in patterns of the
same style as those already mentioned. The body
il often trimmed with five or seven rows OF narrow
velvet, carried rouhd the bust, forming berthe,
which is pointed az front and rounded behind.
Very short talnas OF velvet, cloth, or above all
chinChia are the favOritc pardeasus for this an
tumn. Large double shaws Of Thibet plush, in al
gerne patterns OF bright coors, with wide chenille
fringe, are introduced by some OF our principal
houses and their costliness as well as their great
beauty, will render them exceedingly fashionable
this winter. lsf ssnE
The casaque,iupe win without doubt be great ia
vorite-t may be trimmed with rich lace guipnie,
| fringe, or even plain gallon; and may be made
| either Of cloth, tafetgs, or velvet.
Whether there will be much novelty in the shape
of bonnets il still open question. At the present
| time fancy b0nnets trimmed with velvet and fea-
thers are most in tavor; those made of other mate
rails OF deeper shades Of color, but as small
those worn during thes,mmer. They are invariably
trimmed with feathers, instead Of the flowers which
| have been SO much in request lately.
The skirts are still worn ballonnees, but these
dome dresses tire the eye; an effort is being made
to reduce the circumfe OF these ungracefnl APP
pendages to male attire, and we trust it will be
| successful.
We have seen some very elegant silk dresses,
which, for taste, surpass anything that has yet APP
| peard; they are made with double skirts, forming
| HoUnces On the edge OF each is q broad stripe
woven in the silk, having the appearance Of plush
or chenille II is quite in the Eastern style, being
mixture of almost all the colors-green, blue, red
and yellow appearing side by side in perfect good
tsste; the color Of the dress itself being either dark
| blue, emerald green or violet:
A dress Of black glace silk had also two skirts,
with founces. which were edged with six or seven
! rows of narrow uncut black velvet.
The three following visiting dresses worthy of
notice:-The FIRST dress of violet and black tai
fefas, with three founces, edged with black velvet
nearly quarter Of yard broad; over this, black
IN thoH vur With
basgues trimmed with two rows OF guipure; the
sleeves open and square, showing very large boui
lonnee OF black gnpure. Small Valenciennes COL
lar. Bonnet of black lace, trimmed with a violet
and black curled feather, fastened on the top by
bow OF ribbon. Velvet hcart's-casc ornamented the
inside Of the fronts.
The second, a dress OF deep blue MORE, striped
with black velvet; a smDll blue velvet mantle,
trimmed with two rows OF broad black lace, the
lower half yard deep. White terry velvet bon.
net, trimmed with two tufts Of small feathers, and
blonde fall
7 The third, black taifetas dress ornamented at
each side Of the skirt by two rows Of black velvet
and wreath OF leaves worked in small black beads,
finished by row Of black lace about two inches
\ wide. With this dress was worn q large Indian
cachmere shawl, and an American-gre satin bon
net covered with black tule worked in rather large
dots Of black silk. The curtain was trimmed round
by ruche Of black blonde, mixed with loops Of
very narrow velvet. On one side was placed
waterny with long black velvet leaves; and inside
the front bouillonnee Of blonde and roses.
Another rechsrchc toilette was composed Of q
dress of green tafIetas, with two deep fiounces,
striped with rows of green velvet; basquine Anda
luse Of green velvet, ornamented with black velvet
stripes and hanging passementerc button. On
the top Of the sleeve. A black velvet bonnet. with
open edge, surrounded by o rich broad blonde, and
\ n black gros grain silk mantle, trimmed with real
/ Chantilly, completed this toilette.
IL would be difficult TO determine the season by
the b0nnets which are now worn, for we still see
some summer bonnets while dark bright colors,
1 and even some velvet capotes, have already
been remarked. Black lace bonnets are worn, and,
when gracefully ornamcnred with flowers, are very
| pretty. black lace bonnet with long leaves Of
green velvet. or with the iris in deep blue velvet

The following is an elegant autumn bonnet 1T
Is composed OF drab Grape in boullonces, separated
by bands OF the coorod velvet half covered by

Some very pretty beaver bonncts are being pre-
paIcd for the colder weather they are OF an exqu
crimson velvet. Some have, besides, n Hat feather,
shaded TO the color Of the velvet others have only
bows Of velvet the sides, with the ends brought
across the curtain, which, well a. the bonnet, "
hound with velvet Inside are placed bows mixed
with blonde or velvet leaves, with bows of black
lace. When the bonnet is trimmed with black vel
