white and gray poult-de-soie, with beauti-
iul bouquets of flowers in natural tints.

other very rich silks are simply striped,
chined, or self-colored. Others, again, are
lichly broeaded in gold and bright eolors
A magnificent black silk gross-grain is
brocaded with delicate branches of golden
fern, and with light bouquets of flowers in
all their natural tints.
Another is dead white, with white CLOS
Isy satin stripes and medallions, edged
with satin border, and filled up with a
lovely bouquet OF pink roses, blue corn
flowers, or lilac blossoms brocaded in
shaded silks.
A mixture of gold leaves, or arabesque
patterns, with colored flowers, is very fash
ionabie. Such rich materials are, however,
hardly fit for any but court dresses. Silk
gauzes, though very elegant, and very ex-
pensive, also, are more suitable tor walking
toilets. a0'f-t.aa si.sri' ffs r'f;
They are also very beautiful this year.
Some are self-colored, some are brocaded
with garlands or bouquets of flowers.
After silk gauze comes grenadine, then

orally striped or chined.
The new name for the finest and most
beautiful quality of mobair, is bengalint:
il is very elegant silky material. ea4I
We have not much to add to what w.
said in our last article about the make o
dresses, except that many ladies. who objec
to wearing them quite plain, have then
gathered, instead OF plated at the neck.
1t is fashionable to wear dresses of two
shades of the same color, thus: A dress of
light gray silk is trimmed with leaves of
darker shade of gray silk, piped round with
light gray. This trimming of leaves sim
ulates double skirt. and the under part of
the skirt is dark gray. The bodice is form
ed of a low corselet and epaulets of light
gray silk. trimmed round with leaves, and
of an upper part, and long sleeves of dark
gray. A straight, loose paletot is of the
colors of the upper part of the skirt, and
ornamented to correspond. The same dress
also looks well in two shades of Bismarck
brown. ID 80 L. 1.FEr s.,
Dresses of tlIis style are seen at the Great
Exhibition, amongst others of a far more
snowy description, such as dress of white
gros- gran silk, striped with bright blue
and amber, dress of blue poult-de-soie, EN-
broidered with pearls, and half covered by
a tunic of point d Alencon another of green
silk. richly embroidered with gimp, and
another of pink silk, ornamented with
sprigs of blacklace flowers, worked III
applique over it, &c, &c. 'iT
In the way of travelling costumes, let rs
take note of dress of buff colored toile
de lin, trimmed with piped strips of brown
silk Paletot to correspond, and under
skirt of plain brown silk; and another
simpler still, composed of short dress, un-
.der-skirt and paletot, of unbleached linen,
ornamented with garlands of flowers, beau
tifully embroidered in gray thread, edged
with black.
a court dress, of white gros-grain silk,
is embroidered round the bottom with a
garland of white asters, with gold centres
and foliage; il is edge1 with bride of
leaves, cut out of green silk, embroidered
with gold soutache and white beads; cross
strips of green silk, ornamented with large
pearl beads, edged with gold, are placed
upon each seam of the skirt.
; 4 A dress of white tulle, with a small pat
tern worked in black silk, and white beads
all over it, and with border of the same
round the bottom, is ornamented besides
with a lovely garland of roses and lilies OF
the valley, embroidered in silks of their
natural tints. ..
i Another dress of white tulle is trimmed
with beautiful garland of wild violets,
divided at regular distances by sheaves OF
ears of corn, embroidered in real straw.
This pattern, though light and simple, is
very effective. ,.- .ss' el -9-- p
.Garlands of flowers, in different style
we mean raised flowers of colored silk lace
also form a lovely style of trimming
thev are made of ali coiors. and are ex
tremely light and beautiful. They are also
employed for trimming white tulle bon
