HE Newest Things Oas II Fashiens
For the street the most fashionable Co.'S
iume il a combination of silk and some
heavier fabric, the skirt being made of the
former and the overdres of the latter. In
silks, by virtue of superior weight AMI rich.
ness, those of the gros grain or corded vArie-
~ are most in favor. The skiit, of street
dresses are generally made in the demi-train,
adjusted to comfortable walking length by
rings placed on the inside Of the seams and n
tape which draws them over the panier and
lifts them out OF the dust and mud.
For the morning street toilet the redingote
is to be more highly recommended; for the
afternoon promenade the polonnsise is the
more popular. CamePs hair cloth, bIsogne'
imperial cashmeres, merino, French all wool
serge, diagonal cloth, merino. alpaca, biar-
rit cloth, empress cloth, and ali-wool Eng
lish waterproof are among the favorite fab
RIGS for the overdress.
House and dinner dresses are generally
made out-an1-out of the same material, and
with skirts trimmed their entire depth on
the back, an apron front, sa-hes, and
basqu. corssge, thi, usually with the back
Ia position. The latest styles forbid much
garniture on the cOrsage, the basque
being finished by c>rdinss aud the neck with
ruff.
La the matter Of colors for ladies' dresses,
We note that for morning and house wear
blues, inclining to grey, with the green tin,
called "stone blue" and blues inclining to
purple, and called 'pIum color," are pre-
emineDtly popular; while dark greens, dab
liza, and mahogany colors; the dark neu-
trails of the brown class called wood
colors;" the beautiful shades of the grey neu-
trails, known as ''ashes-of-roses," have their
vo,sries, and are classed among the most
fashionable colors. For dinner and evening
wear are the most delicate shades Of maize
or corn color, rose, magnets, mauve, ciel-
blue, sea-green, lavender and coral; each b {.
ing chosen for peculiar fines to the COM
plexion of the wearer rather than stronger
perversity Of the mode.
The Oriental necklace of many rows ofje'
beads is again in fashion. The beads grad
uate smaller towards the back, aod have bot
one row there. while three or seven roWs fall
low OF the bodice.

AsKING REuNnrArEHENT.

A lee postmaster in Ohio who resigned
short time ago called TO see the Postmaster
General in reference to being reinstated. He
alleged as reason for such action on the
part of the Postmaster General that he had
been forced to resign through the pressure
brought to bear upon him from outsiders
The Postmaster General informed him that
the Department having filled the vacancy
created by his resignation could not remove
the present Incumbent, as there was no cause
for 90 doing, and to remove him in order TO
create . vacancy would be a piece not only
of vacllIation but manifest Injustice on the
part of the Department, aud could not be en-
tertained for q moment. He further inform
ed him that he should have fought for his
place while he held it, and that the mistake,
if any had occurred, was made on the part
of himself

HOY, HOS. r. FENLcH.

1t is with profound satisfaction that We
record the fact that the Republican primary
meeting in the Fourth Ward last night NOM
mated the Hon. Thomas P. Fenlon for Re
preventative. Weeks ago We suggested
through the columns Of the TINES the fitness
of Mr.. F. for this position. The Press
throughout the Safe has almost without ex-
ception approved our action. There lis some
sense in sending good, able men to represent
US at the State capital. Mr.. Fenlon will he
elected unanimously. He will 20 supported
by the people.
Leavenworth As it nov eeems probable
will have better delegation than ever be-
fore, and If is reasonable to expect our dele
CATION will command that consideration from
the representatives, OF the State, which the
great interests Of the metropolis demand.
