British Magnifcence.
The London Queen OF June IA, In an account
of the costumes at the Ascot races, say s..
The dresses worn by the ladies were particu-
larIy pretty. Among the most notable fea-
lures were eoatrbodices quite distinct from
the skirts. Over silks and satins velvet
Louis XIV coats Of the same shade were
worn, but more remarkable still were those
showing decided contrast. For instance, a
gendarmes satin skirt and sleeves and a
sleeveless coat OF old-gold satin, having upon
1t velvet brocade OF many colors, or dark
olive-green coat, with steel buttons, over a
blush tone of satin. Some few artistic toilets
were noticeable; as, for example, peacock
green cashmere, the bodice cut round at the
neck and half high, with a thick white linen
chemisette, fully gathered, showing. above It;
round the bodice was q trimming OF gold ana
peacock ribbon, twisted in points; the same
appeared on the sleeves, which had O white
putting at the elbow, and also round the
draped tunte. Two sisters wore white wash
ing silks, also cut IN round form at the neck,
with figured net chemisettes coming high to
the throat, the sleeves made with the deep
puff from the shoulder to the elbow, and o.
gendarme satin, intermixed with old-goId
satin sheeting, had tight sleeve OF dark blue
and plain oyersleeve to elbow OF Old-gold, a
revival from the sixteenth century. Most OF
THESE were VIII large coal-scubtle or cottage
turesque forms. It Is difficult to describe the
