to open with the spring styles yesterday. Des-
pite the elements however. great many ladies
were out-between the blows We spoke yes
terday Of Mrs. Corps display, and it was just
as we indicated about the other stores At
Daniels and Lussiers'. the display Of bOnnets,
trimmings, art6cials, &c, DC, was truly magni'
fcent, and we were reminded of the fairy tales
we read when little fellow, and OF the "Ars-
bisn Nights" while scanning the exquisilely
beautiful ornaments for the Ladies in the sc
depositaries of fashion. We advise our lady
readers to go this afternoon it is far preferable
to yesterday, and then the display will be JUS
as nice this afternoon and toNmorrow.
