London Conference. But he is permitted 20
leave Paris only by military courtesy, ana hiS

ANEw CAPITAL OF F%AsHloN.-It has been ru-
mored that the Partisan ladies intend TO show
their sense of their country's mlsfortunes by
adopting for the future an extreme sobriety Of
costume. AS this Is an eccentricity of fashion
into which their most devoted imitators in
o~thercountries can hardly be expected to follow
them, another ''defeat Of Worth" may be an
ticipated, and the great Partisan mllliner will
cease to give the law to Europe. Under these
circumstances It will become necessary TO e.
tablish the capital of fashion is some other city,
and the names OF several places have already
been mentioned as the future seat OF goverr.e-
nat Mt Tor female costume. The claims OIL the
Portuguese territory OF Goa seem 70 ys worthy
of great consideration, and should the COVER
nor succeed In efecting certain reforms which
he seeks to Introduce, the dress Of the native
inhabitants of that colony will form an admir-
able model for; The. imitation Of English ladies.
An order has been recently Issued directing
that natives found In public either UNDERGRAD
or dressed iHclothes too transparent or flmsy
to answer the purposes of delicacy shall be
punished" If this edict produces the desired
effect, London milliners should lose no time
In putting themselves in communication with
some leading native firm in Goa. A very
saiHtary change would be effected in English
female costumes, while the milliners would
not in the long run be losers by the transfer oil
their allegiance TO the Portuguese settlement.
Goan fashions might not perhaps change quite
30 frequently as Partisan modes, and mllliners
therefore would not be required TO supply SO
many dresses as heretofore; but, on the other
hand, each dress would require q consider
ably larger amount Of material than at present
