Reception of the Pilgrims.

The Boston Pilot prints from it's special correspondent in Rome an &C., count of the reception of the French pilgrims at the Vatican. They were three hundred in number, men and women, wearing on their breasts cross of red cloth embroidered with white on the back of which were the words Servire Domino C1aristo. On the table near the throne were twenty richly bound volumes, containing the adhe- sions of the. faithful pilgrims. The address to the Pope and his reply are examples of eloquence. The only po- itical allusion in the address of the Holy Father. occurs near the close of his benediction, when he says Fi- nally, l bless your families, your friends, your companions, all the pilgrims * to the end (allow me to say so) of seeing them employed in the difficult work of causing the disappearance, if it is pos sible, or at least of diminishing 8 hor- rible wound which af1icts human so- ciety, and which is called universal suffrage. Yes, this is wound destruc- tive of social order, and which would justly deserve to be called universal falsehood.

Now as Then.

It is an interesting fact and true to 8 great extent, says Hebrew paper, that the style of dress and ornaments of the Hebrew ladies of the present day-and in fact the prevailing toilet of all ladies lis much the same as during the time of Solomon. With all the changes and variations of centuries, the gradations of chignons and crinolines, we now find much of the simple grace and easy symmetry of ancient Greece.
 The Scriptures narrate great many things about the style of dress worn in the time of Solomon, and in the law of Moses several directions are given con- corning garments worn by the Israelites. In the Book of Judges the girls of that period are described by Deborah as " A prey of divers colors of needle work, !" while Lemuel says, "Their clothing is of silk and purple." In the frequent intercourse between the Jewish and other nations, the ladies, tired of their primitive simplicity, sought the fash ions of the clever Egyptians, the ele- gant Phoenicians, and the luxurious Persians. Even patient Job became impatient at the dresses, and Isaiah de- nounces the "women of the period" living for nothing but dress and airta- tion, with the one desire to "see and be seen."
 The tunica worn by the ladies in the time of Solomon was much like the polonaise of to-day, and the belt with fancy clasps now worn are about the same as the leather girdles and silver buckles worn of old. We also find re- corded that trains were worn to dresses, and that camels' hair shawls were com. mon. Embroidered mantles, fastened with golden pins, are also spoken of. The hair was also oiled, dyed, and put up in coils; little curls were let hang over the forehead, and, strange to say, the girls of Solomon's time, it is stated, used paint.
 Veils were worn, and sandals were made of blue and violet colored leather with fancy lachets. Solomon, as is re lated, said to Shulamite, "How beauti full are thy feet with shoes, O princes daughter P Hair nets were worn, an6 earrings of all forms and much value were very common. Bracelets on tho right arm, strings of pearls and heavy gold chains around the neck, rings o1 the fingers, and other ornaments, were all worn by the ancient Hebrew ladies

Summer Fashions.

Of all fabrics grenadine is perhaps most used for summer mourning cos tunes, says fashion journal. That with very small or else medium square meshes is preferred to the large canvas meshes, or to striped or figured grena- dine. The oarse-meshed canvas grena-
 dine Is apt to have some cotton in it,
 which, though ingeniously concealed,
 finally makes itself visible, and gives the fabric rusty brown look. Grena- dine polonaises for mourning are occa- sionally seen with inch-wide stripes of dull repped gros grain, but not of the glossy satin stripe. Marrow grenadines measuring from twenty-four to twenty seven inches cut to far better advantage than the double-feld goods, which is nearly two yards wide. Merchants sell ten dresses of the narrow fabric to one of double width. Mixed silk and wool grenadines are chosen for plain deep mourning suits. Glossy all-silk grena- dimes, trimmed with lace and jet, are only suitablefor complimentary mourn ing. As grenadine suits must be made over silk, they are not cool, though their lightness is commeudation. It is considered bad taste to have low waist Things, with white neck and arms gleaming through the transparent grenadine hence the basque lining (ot twilled silk serge) extends up to the throat and down to the wrists. How ever, as 8 relief to this, white pleatings and frills are more worn about the neck and wrists than formerly, as only wid- ows in first mourning now wear black crape collars. The best plan for grena- dine street suits is to have silk skirt, or else black foulard skirt, with the grenadine founces sewed upon it, and dispensing with a skirt of grenadine. Very fine pleatings and folds seem to be considered the only suitable trimming too showily trimmed add shirred head ings ; thus there are two groups con- sisting each of fine pleating six inches deep headed by bias piece which has three rows of shirring forming two puffs an inch wide, with narrow double rufle on each side of the puffs. With th1s skirt is an apron over.skirt long enough to conceal the silk of the lower skirt, and edged with one pleating with shirred heading. The basque is piped on the edge, while pleating and puffs trim the wrist, the neck, and pass down the fronts. Pleatings of grenadine are cut straight across the material, hemmed by hand on each edge, and are Tapped, or else form their own heading by being sewed on an inch below their upper edge. They are pressed fatly their whole length, and not loosened tc form ruff1es, as silk pleatings are. Gathered and shirred grenadine hounces are bias, and are usually fin
 ished by 8 fiat French hem nearly ar inch wide, turned up on the right side
 and sewed with blind stitches rolled and bound edges of ruffles are not used
 Very rich lustreless fringes of curleG or else crimped braid are used for trim
 ming Byzantine and grenadine suits.

Going to Mosque.

By far the most interesting sight of Oonstantinople is that of the Sultan going in public state to mosque on Fri day, (the Mussulman Sabbath.) It is 8 religious duty imposed on the sover- eign for the time being, from which under no pretence (unless in case of imminent danger from sickness) can he possibly be exempt. The present Sul- tan generally goes to the mosque at Bechiktache, short distance from his palace of Dolma-Baghtche /; and long before the appointed hour the neigh borhood becomes thronged with mul- titude of redfezzed and turbaned men ; while Turkish women, clad in snowy yashmaks and glowing -colored feridjies of every shade, line the road at either side, from the grand gate of the palace to the mosque itself. A double line of guards keep the route, and at few minutes before twelve a number of gen. erals and colonels, riding two abreast, precede some flies of superior officers on foot. Then come on horseback the principal ministers of state, followed by the Grand Vizier, and short dis tance the Sultan himself, mounted on a splendid Arab charger, richly capari- 0OAAOAAs AA4A44OAA0UCAy OOAAAN LILO AAnJOooJ follow the body -guard-who are select ed from the best families of every race in the empire, and wear each of them their own national costume-several led horses in magnificent trappings, and an escort of picked imperial troops. As the Sultan passes along, the artillery al the arsenal fire one hundred and one guns, the bands stationed at intervals strike up the Sultan's March, and the soldiers shout, "Long live Abdul Aziz may he live foreverp' It is most i'm posing spectacle, and as the cavalcade of pashas of every rank, with dazzling and uniforms studded with medjidies and nishaniftiars, move down the line to the music of the imperial band, the ensemble compares favorably with any court-procession to be seen elsewhere in Europe.

Pennsylvania State Grange.

Over 500 patrons were in attendance at the Pennsylvania State Grange. The closing resolutions appealed to agri- culturists everywhere in the State to learn the objects of the movement from reliable sources without delay, and if favorable to show the principles practi- cally at an early day. Amendments to the constitution of the National Grange were in the main ratified. The Masters closing address congratulated the pa- irons present upon the marvellous growth of the order in Pennsylvania as we'll as in other States. He predicted that Pennsylvania would have 1000 granges next January with a member ship of over 5O,OOO. One county in the State already had forty granges, with g membership of nearly 4,000, and the same county had but one grange with less than 100 members on the 1st of January. The Grange adjourned to meet in regular session at Williams port, January 5, 1875.

"The Common Sense Medical A,

"The Common Sense Medical Ad-
 wiser, in Plain English, for all People, or Medi- cine Simplied, is the comprehensive and ex- pressive title of forthcoming work of from seven to nine hundred large pages, bound in cloth, from the pen of Dr. R. V. PIERCE, of the Worlds Dispensary, Buffalo, N. Y. Price, $1. 50, postpaid, to any address within the United States. To all those who subscribe for the work no,o, and send the money with their subscription, the price will be but $1.00 The latter price scarcely covers the cost of publica- tion, and at $1. 50 it will be the cheapest book ever published, and the author can only hope for compensation for his labor in the immense sale which the work must have. The authors name is household word throughout America, and his fame as physician is not unknown in other lands His reputation, coupled with the cheapness of the work, insures for It, in our opinion, sale surpassing that of any book that has ever been published in the English language. The book will be illustrated with numerous original wood engravings, will con tain fine steel portrait and autograph of the author, and altogether will be the most com prehensive, plainly written, and practical medi- cal adviser for both young and old, male and female, single and married, ever published.
 We advise each of readers to send the sub scription price to the author immediately, and thus encourage him in his labors, and secure the work at the reduced price. The author will acknowledge the receipt of all subscrip- tions and send the book as soon as out.-Com.

Criminals.

Sheriff Clarke made some very touch ing and interesting remarks at the an- niversary held recently of the Massa- chusetts Society for Aiding Discharged ConYicts. The remarks had reference to Sheriff Clarke's experience among criminals in connection with the work of the society. He had known, he said, hundreds of men and women made brutes or fends or both, by neglect and temptation, who never knew restraining grace except while in prison, whose conduct was exemplary while there, and who shed bitter tears upon being dismissed and compelled to return to g work which in reality was but hell to them. A similar association in New York accomplishes noble work.
