G~entIemen's Fashions.

For morning..snd business wear the prevail
ing styles for gentlemen are the very dark
browns and dark grsys and greens slightly
dashed with red. The smallest Of checks are
seen, and a decided check is worn, but always
with an underthresd of some bright color.
The shapes of business coats are slightly
altered in one or two respects. They are cut
shorter and more like the pesjacket style
that was so popular, and are more curved in
front, where they button. The rough English
styles still seem more popular than ever, and
gentlemen will be 10th TO give up such
sensible, comfortable garments as they snow
enjoy. Goats are worn buttoned high, as
usual, only showing the scarf, and suits are
made ofone color, If preferred. The trousers
are still cut closely, and coat sre cut 10 TT
snugly. The light colored ~ulsters, which
have been 80 fashionable during the winter,
will still he worn this spring in lighter,
thinner msterials, while the Derby hat seems
to retain all of is ancient popularity. Their
shapes are varied, 30 that any face can find
some one shape becoming. The tall silk hat
of course, is still the dress hat, and indeed
the most elegant and appropriate hat for
city wear. The spring shapes are made
very small-thst ID, with very narrow brims
and as small as can be worn with comfort
while the shape incline slightly more 10 the
bell crowned than the winter styles. The
opera hat, or crush hat, has been more
popular thsn eyer this winter. The young
gentlemen seem 10 have chung 10 1t in the
ball room with q desperate grasp, n no
doubt found them very convenient as fsns,
and also as Q relief from awkwArdness.

Two years ago for you, dear and fair one,
Love was q newborn. bright and fairy thing;
1t turned all earth to heaven, all grief to glee,
We sighed for joy n sang Tor sorrowing
In that sweet spring.
How could we guess that love would ere grow
old,
Who saw its infant hour run idly by?
How could we know its kisses would grow
cod,
Who kissed so of, and how could you and /
llcam love could u e?
And yet for us 1--we lives no more to-day,
Though how - e.. 'Nf van or / can tell:
We only know Is .A4..4s II we passed away,
Nor we can meier Iebind a broken spell,
And SO, farewell!
Still heart meets heart and lips to lips are

Still earth is fair and skies ara bright and

Perchance IL may be'in some happier bre' t,
Some soul that TO another soul is true,
Love lives anew.

Mexican Matters.

City of Mexico, April 22.-Great interest
is manifested in railroad matters. Grant and
Romero were looked upon with distrust on
their arrival. Now they appear to be gaining
ground by consenting to have the gulf line
to Emusc, The Mexican Central railroad,
charged from San Antonio to Laredo,
thence to Vera Cruz. They have secured
the powerful aid of friends of this place. 1t
is now thought General Grant may secure a
modified form to the railroad concession bill
if he de tired. The enterprise of the Top
olavampo railroad seems to be losing ground
even with Grants influence and that of
Governor Pachecs, of California, who is
here in behalf of that company. Many
comments are made on General Diaz's sudden
depsrture,for Mstsmoras just at this time.
