Latest Paris Fashions.
Translated from Le Follet]

Persons get soon used TO everything, even
to eccentrlcities, and our present costumes
annear natural. in spite OF the resistance
which they at first met with. It must be
confessed, however, that it is often not the
fashions which are ridiculous, but the man
uer in which they ara interpreted. The
double and triple s.n6 skirts Topped ed back sad on r
would be difficult to quote the variety OF
styles which are met with on the Boule-
wards or in the Bots de- BouIogne. The
following deserves particular notice, however,
on account OF it's beauty and originality !:
Imagine q round skirt of. JoWurd cdTmaelae
ornamented below with two plated founces
which are bordered at the top bya fold OF sill
yer-gray silk. The upper skirt OF silver gray
silk is looped back at the sides by lunches Of
ali round with O narrow fringe Of the same
shade, with fold of one centimetre in width at
the top, The cassock of caTnaei,te touldrd fits
tight TO the waist, and is looped back en- paniers
where the upper skirt endB.i A long knot be-
hind marks the centre Of these paniers that
are much pufed. The tight-ft6ng sleeves Of
the lower waist are made Of silyer-gray silk.
Another remarkable innovation answers very
well as promenading toilet at the watering
places-a white muslin skirt with tight
fitting sleeves; the waist is striped with
ribbons OF glazed cambria one centimetre
and q half. in width; there is o space Of
eight or ten centimetres between each
stripe, and the Marte Aratotneae mantelet Of
muslin is likewise striped With cambria ribbons.
For parlor costume q ka1Icolored deLdlne
dress, with the lower skirt 0rnafnented by fes-
toons OF black leaves spotted with narlkin-col-
ored silk dots. The same ornament repeats
itself around the upper skirt, looped back at
theIsides to.form o square apron In front. The
square waist is assorted In style and color to
theidouble skirt, and completed by Q pelerine
cardinal, crossed in front, q Ia tictu Ldnlb1le.
have also seen s toilet Of white linen with en-
broidery work, initiating the-roots ofcorals. The
embroidery is on the lRppels ofithe waiet, on the
sleeves above and below, and on each side. OF
the belt, and OF the flaps Of the sash knotted
behind. Embroidery work is very much in
favor, and light, transparent material is em-
br0idered with silk Of different shades, and
makes very rich promenading toilets. The
round hats have very pretty shape this year;
the rims are generally turned up, and are very
becoming. The enormous shepherd hat will
likewise be worn; it appears ag much more ex-
aggerated in it's proportions, as it has for COM
psnions the very small 0gue, and the diminu-
tive hnt with turned-up rims. They are trying
to make the Chinese bat fashionable, although
could not tell tor what reason; for it is neither
becoming nor graceful, and should hardly be
admitted for children. AS for promenade bon
nets they are still very small, and the hair
dressed high. Some ladies juat merely put it
on their clsgnon, with cluster OF long curls
falling down from. the chignon behind: s,s}& !.

), A TRucuLENT MoNARoH.-The most fright
full accounts are given by the correspondents
in Abyssinia Of the massacre OF prisoners at
Magdala just before the tall OF that stronghold.
After stripping the clothes from those whom
he had ordered for execution, Theodorus him
sclr commenced the work Of slaughter.
He first shot ten Of thcm dead with his own
hand, then threw his revolver away drew his
sword and leaped towards the trembling pris-
oners. Eyeing them moment, he seemed TO
chose one for whom he entertained perfect
hatred, for he said, "Ah, your hour has come;
1 am going to drink your blood, and, raising
his sword, he cut his head of at one blow, and
then drew it again across his abdomen; Iheo-
dorus' lace and clothes were covered with blood,
and, like tiger who had tasted blood, this
seemed to increase his fury. He foamed ut
the lips and his eyes became bloodshot.
After stabbing and cutting about fifty with
his own hands he rested, and ordered
thas his chiefs should try their hands.
Many of them had personal hatreds
against the captives, and they proceeded with
an astonishing alacrlty with the awful task OF
blows he applauded, but when he saw cuts
given that but MANNED the poor wretches the
King would spring up and demonstrate what
an oasy matter it was to send heads clean oil
the shoulders by choosing strong, sturdy
prisoner and decapitating him with his own
hand. A boy prince, son of one Of the rebel
lious governors, who was still at large: was
next killed by sweeping. blow, which, took his
head and left arm off. In about an hour and
half from the commencement Of the whole
sale execution the massacre vas completed,
and as fast as each one had been slain the body
was carried to the edge Of the cliff and thrown
down height Of fifty feet or more. At the
bottom Of the cliff were several great rocks
scattered here and there, and these were
covered with brains and blood. A ghastly heap
of eorrupting flesh was all that was left OF
shortly before had been the friends in cap
tivity of the Europeans. The human shambles
