MILLINERY.

Bonnets and hats are still towering
"Ossa and Pelion like!" The ugliesl
shades in green are the most soughtaiter,

fashion has developed. From the most
delicate blue7green to the sombre, invisi.
BILE greenish bronze and each shade so il
seems finds a resting place on the varied
chapeaux. Moire antique is the pre-
vailing style of ribbon, and the watery
appearance is beautifully produced on both
sides rendering it more effective in trim

Quaint and at the same time distin-
guished looking are the "Rubeus hat"

LEONARDO da Yinei which reminds one of
this celebrated artist as it is quite ar

voLrAIRE's LAST WORDS.

Voltaire was fertile and elegant. his
observations are very acute, yet he Of
ten betrays great Ignorance when he
treats on subjects of ancient learning.
Madame de Talmond once said to him,
81 think, sir, that philosopher should
never write but with the endeavor to
render mankind less wicked and unhap-
py than they are. Now, YOU do quite
the contrary; you are always writing
against that religion which alone is able
to restrain wickedness, and to afford us
consolation under misfortunes.' Vol
taire was much struck, and excused him
self by saying that he only wrote for
those who were of the same opinion as
himself. Trouchin assured his friends
that Noltaire died in great agonies of
mind. 81 die forsaken by gods and
men," exclaimed he in those awful mo-
ments when truth will force its way. Il
wish" added Trouchin, that those who
had been perverted by his writings had
been present at his death; it was a sight
too horrid to support"

AMrRIcAys AND OLD ROMANS.

centuries since, they had not only gen
