New Fashions.
Mark Twain the humorist, thus impu-
IDENTIFY makes drive at certain new fash.
ions. We would like to know what bust
ness MARK has to remark so much about
the styles that mark the ladies of mark in
the present age. What business has a
cynical old Bach. to mark the costumes or
head-gear Of lady, and most particularly
of "a lovely girl of seventeen" We insist
that the ladies have right to wear just
what they please-if they think their wa
ter-lalls and Haunting petticoats " are
pretty, what are we pantalooned, nom
judges going to do about it
We shall describe the exquisite taste
and beauty of the new style of ladies'
walking dresses. Taken as class, women
can contrive more outlandish and ugly
costumes than one would think possible
without the gift of inspiration. But this
time they have been felicitous in inven-
ton. The wretched waterfall still remains,
of course, but in modified form every
change it has undergone was for the bet
ter. First it represented q bladder of
Scotch snuff; next it hung down a wo-
mans back like calivass-cOvered ham !;
afterwards it contracted and counterfeited
. turnip on the back of the head now it
sticks straight out behind, and looks like a
wire muzzle on greyhound. Nesting in
the midst of this long stretch of head and
hair repose the little batter-cake of II bon
net, like jockey-saddle on race-horse.
You will readily perceive that this looks
unique, and pretty and coquettish. But
the glory of the costume is the robe--the
dress. No furbelows, no founces, no BIZ
ases, no ruff1es, no cores, no futter-wheels,
no hoops to speak of-nothing but plain,
narrow, BLACK dress, terminating just be-
low the knees in long saw-teeth pointing
downward and under it flaming red
skirt, enough to put your eyes out, that
reaches down to the ancle-bone, and ex-
poses tho restless little feet. Charming,
fascinating, seductive, bewitching /! To see
a lovely girl of seventeen, with a saddle on
her head, and muzzle on behind, and her
veil just covering the end of her nose,
come tripping along, in the hoopless red
bottom, like churn on fire, is enough to
set you wild but l must drop this sub
ject-I can't stand it.

A correspondent of the Davenport Gaz.
has been on visit to Lake Minnitonka,
Minnesota, Here is what he says Of Crane
Island, situated in this lake:
This island consists Of about ten or
twelve acres of heavily timbered ground,
and is the great Matching place of the
crane family. Here are thousands upon
thousands Of the nests of these worthless
birds; high up among the branches of the
tall trees we counted mine nests, each Us
big as bushel basket, and in circle o f
fifty yards diameter, we counted thirty
FIVE nests. They are just as thick as this
Il through the island, suppose. III
clatter and confusion they keep up is as
much of a curiosity as the island ITSELF
Approaching the spot we heard them a
mile, OF, screaming, quacking, and barking
in hideous concert. In fact, it sounded
more like a general dog fight in the dis
lance than anything we could think of. It
is indeed, a lively place.
