New Autumn STYLES.

Back to New York, very much
against my will, I have come in time to
tell my readers something of what is In
preparation for them for the coming
season. Much will 2 be- said about
novelty, of course, but as yet there is
nothing more than an emphatic repro
| duction of recent ideas. The skirts
/ cling mere closely than ever overskirts
are aprons arranged with; ladders or
loops at the back or scarfs crossed upon
one side and forming a sash. upon the
other or at the back. The new polo
naise is the old pol9nsiseFEith jacket
back. The E4ge is foF euirass bodies
! and SLEEVELESS jackets. the former diff
fering OILY from tile latter In being
/ plainly cut, fitting closely and being
| stripped or wrought all over with beads
or beaded passementeries, so as to form
/ a veritable coat of mail. This species
of ornamentaSion is not confined to
/ black and white Jet, as formerly, but
| appears IN great profusioA in blue Jet,
and to a smaller extent in blue steel.
These trimmings are adapted to the
| dark gTays and black blues in materials,
and beading, therefore, will not be CON
fined to black toilets, as heretofore.
Probably the most recherche color
for the winter season will be one Just
received fpSm Paris and called "invis-
ible" blue, because it corresponds pre-
cisely to invisible" green. It is a
very pure, dark shade, easily con
founded with damsOn or tho black blue
of last season, but quite different when
compared with either. It is only in
few pieces of cloth, silk and velvet that
1t can as yet be obtained, and only in
one place that gloves will be found to
match.
Even colors are a shade deeper than
last year, but are to be associated with
white or black. We shall have, there
fore, tinted silks sbrouded in muslin
and 1aces, black or white dresses, with
pale blue or pure blue pink fnishings
and facIRgs, and with these gloves
three or four buttoned-embroidere 10
match, embroidery having been revi-
we'd /; also the narrow welts stitched
into the wrists, white or black, like the
embroidery.
The most practical fall suits are made
of French all-wool berege, or some of the
pretty wooden diagonals, in iron gray
and dark shades of brown. They have
no trimming, except a lining of silk,
which shows as a facing in collar, cuffs
and basque, but they are very useful,
and are accompanied by afelt hat match

of silk and the wing of game bird.
The usual style of making is a walk

plated. too.
En- PEASANT, it may be remarked in
regard to ornaments, that ostrich feath-
ers will be used for dark velvet bon
nets, and the feathers, wings and the
like of game birds variOusly mounted
for dark straw and felt hats.
Small birds are likewise in great de-
mand.
OF course, there is not much to be
said about bonnets as yet, but the first
glimpses show as great diversity as ever.
a decided falling off of the crown and
as decided an enlargement of brim,
which is very faring and produces an
effect not at all IN harmony with the
narrow, elose-ftting designs for dresses.
There are some close bonnet shapes,
however, and we must either fall back
on these or have the others very much

SoME of the regular soldiers sent
west have married squaws and are doing
their best to civilize the poor ignorant
redskins. As soon as the squaw gets
pair of army boots and brass chain on
she begins to act refined and lady-like.

walk, picks himself up and says:
