The Chinese women.

AS regards modesty, their dress is,
without exception, the most chaste in
the world, because it entirely conceals
the figure. There is no display of a
symmetrical tournure, or graceful undu-
lation Of neck and shoulder, or soft rise
and fall of the throat; no dainty ankles
tightened up in laced boots; no rounded
arms are at all discovered under the
loose dress of the Chinese women. An
ordinary sack, tied at the neck, would
show finer outlines Of the figure which it
shrouded, than lhe Chinese costume.
The only exceptions have seen to this
rule are the sailor girls, with their exqui-
site little bare feet and ankles, perfect
models of beauty, and the poor, wretched
women laborers, who hunt for the water
chestnut far above their knees in mud.
But only women are employed, and even
they are not more nude than our ballet
girls, who undrape themselves for public
exhibition, while the poor nut-hunters do
it from necessity, wading through that
mud for five cents a day. No women
ever appear in Chinese theatres as ae-
tresses.

A Row words About Lace.

An English writer on political econ
omy says. ut is difficult for me to look
at lace machine with patience The
ingenuity which went to devise it might
have made human life materially hap
pier in thousand ways, and its actual
effect has been to enable great number
Of people to wear an imitation of an or
nament which derives what little merit
it has principally from its being made
by hand" The real amateur in lace,
however, places no value on the article
unless it is made by hand. Old lace is
his special hobby; and at present there
is in the International Exhibition an in
terestipg display of this expensive luxu.
ry, However manifold the varieties"
says the London Times, there are but
two species of oflace--namely, needle-made
and bobbin.made, or pillowlace, The
distinction is clear enough if we watch
the process, but not always recognized
in the descriptive labels attached by the
pessessors of some of the specimens.
Even experts will sometimes assign to
the needle fabric due to the manlpula-
ton of hundreds of bobbins by fingers
trained from childhood to the delicate
task. But it is in needle-made lace that
the highest artistic excellence is found
and accordingly we think a magnificent
square and founce of raised point (rose
point in lace dealers language belong
ing to the Duke of Devonshire, is, per-
haps, the gem of the whole collection.
The pattern, with its graceful scrolls, its
flowing arabesques, the firm, smooth, &C.
curste work, the frets and raised borders
the ties which bind the fabric together,
all demand our admiration and crafty
our sense of beauty and fitness.
Old Italian pattern-books, some by
Cesare Vecellio, cousin of Titan, are
shown in case by themselves. Among
the lace lent by Lady Drake, Mrs. Morri-
son and Mrs. Bolckoware, are some fur
ther splendid specimens of raised point
and guipure, and of pillow laces of such
extreme fleness of thread and work,
aud such beauty of design, that we can
scarcely place them below the best nee
die made lace. Some of these noble
pieces we're, no doubt, the presents sent
to a Cardinal-we see worked in them
the sacred emblems. There is priests
robe, very curious and beautiful There
is lace which belonged to Queen Eliza
beth, and lace which Marie Antoinette
wore There is lace which has decorated
christening robes, and lace which has
been unsewed from winding sheets.
Lappets which have huttered from fair
heads at Queen Charlotte Court Stein
kinks and jabots worn by gallants at
Versailles, and English SCHOOLGIRLS
samplers as old as the Tudors.
