STRAUSS AND WALTZ MUsIc.-There was
in the music that strange mixture OF pensive-
ness and inebriating spirit but family repre-
sented in the ballrooms.of London and Paris,
even by the same Strauss, when directing the
same orchestra, and playing the same tunes,
which makes me also remember the evening.
The exquisite modulation of the triple tempo
which no French orchestra can render-full
to the utmost fullness, yet not playground
and equal, yet still with slight propelling ac-
cent--the precision and the pleasure among
the players, and the unstudied quiet anma-
tlon of the waltz master himself, made up
irresistible charm--a ease Of that fascination
by perfect concord, without any apparent
mechanical WEAKNESS. which long practice
only can giye-a delicious example of some of
the most luscious tones that happy orchestral
combination can produce, called out in ex-
preston and enhancement of some of the
most beautiful music of modern Europe

FURTHER HINTS ABOUT DRESSES

AbOOI DRESSES.
As the season advances some fashions are
confirmed, while others offered by the mo-
dstes are rejected, The sacques and Jackets
that find favor are not slashed Ike those of
last year, but each seam is sewed to the end;
they are also longer than formerly, and are
very loose, easy and careess-ookng The
MedicIs sacque is the popular fashion; for I'M
dress wraps this pattern is lengthened be-
hind to make it even with the font. The
plain back then fits smoothly over the slight
tournure. Black cashmere sacques are worn
until they are displaced by lace sacques at
midsummer. Many of them are literally in
crusted with jet beads, dotted about in most
irregular fashion, while others are wrought in
vermicelli pattern, or in more elaborate ara
besques. Jet trimming bought by the yard
is rejected by people OF wealth, and the jet
embroidery done by hand on the garment is
The extraYagant substitute Modistes paw
French women large wages to do this work.
Ladies who have plenty of leisure sew the
beads on their own garments of black silk
and cashmere.
BLACK GRENADINES.
Many dresses of black grenadne are being
made by the modistes for summer wear The
newest grenadines have pin-head dots, cross
bars, and lozenge-shaped figures; but there
are also many satin-striped, water-striped,
polka-spotted, and plain canvas grenadines.
Large fans continue in favor, and those
painted by hand are objects of desire, being
more fashionable at present than those
mounted with lace. The newest fans for
ful[dress toilettes are of parchment or of
white kid, with gay landscape after Wat
teau exquisitely painted on one side, while
the other is plain white, with a ple bor-
der; the polished massive-looking sticks are
of opal tinted pearl; price $50. Black fans,
according to Spanish taste, may be worn
with all toilettes; those of black silk with
colored illumnations also cost $50. Lower
priced black-silk fans, with garden scenes
done in shaded gray frescoing, have sticks of
real ebony inlaid with pearl-price $1S.
Fans of pale rose or Sevres blue silk, mount
ed on sticks of carved ivory, have odd little
pictures OF sto ks and lizards, with lakes,
lilies and grasses; one has branch of
tree, from which hangs huge serpent en-
twined with roses; price $50. Curiously
colored pearl sticks are shown with plain
silk fans. The prettiest lace fans have the
figures of lace applied on tule, and laid
smoothly over silk; these have white ivory
sticks, and are chosen for brides. Brown
and black Japanese fans, with gilt or silver
figures and lacquered sticks, supersede the
warm looking scarlet fans of last summer;
price slips. Large linen fans are ninety
cents.
FRENCH PARAsoLs.
New parasols just received from Paris are
smaller than the sun umbrellas brought from
England They are made of black twilled
silk, with thick ebony handles, widened at
the end, and supporting the silver initials of

chateaine hook. Price So.
