A Widows Dress.
From the Evening Post. z
A yery elegant evening dress, lately
worn by a young widow in this city, was
composed of dead black mourning satin
de LYON, made in princess style, with a
court train falling in superb unbroken
folds from the waist. Around the foot
of this train was a double'box ~pleating
about eight inches long, of black Indian
silk gauze, with q handsome jet orna-
ment get between each. full pleating.
Down the front of the dress from the
throat to the skirt hem was laid a tab
lier, formed Of pleating OF the black
gause-haying the "blouse" effect over
the b%ust-curying narrowly at the belt,
the e~nlarsing into panels below the
waist. Down the center of each of these
panels were set at intervals n number of
magnificent cut jet medallion ornaments
of lare design and value. Special jet or
naments were placed upon the short
elbow sleeves, and a Vandyke collar COW
cred with a sclntiIlating mass ofjet work,
half covered the shoulders of the fair
lady. The effect of this jet garniture in
the gaslight was exceeding beautiful,
A large Portia ian of pale mauve feath-
ers, and a pair of Louis XIV sandals of
black satin, embroidered in jet, and
worn over pale mauve silk stockings,
with dressed kid gloves of a shade to
match, completed a costume at once
striking and recherche.

Fashion I'm sa die Horses.

It never occurred to us till the other
day whv we have a set of fools about
our city parks who seem to prefer
diaphragm-shaking, notwithstanding
trotter for saddle-horse. to pleasant,
luxurious PAGER or racker. 1t is simply
because the English ride nothing but
trotters, and our dudes ana dudesses
think nothing can be quite right unless
it is English. And why do the English
ride nothing but trotuers? Because they
have got nothing else. There is not a
pacing horse in all England. No En-
glishman has ever seen a PAGER in the
last eighty or hundred years unless he
came TO this country to see him. The
great English authority on the horse,
Youatt, declares he never saw a PAGER,
and doubted whether it was possible, in
nature, for horse to move the two feet
on the same side at the same time, with
out falling down. It is not, therefore,
a matter of choice, but a matter of ne
cessity, that the English ride trotting
horses; it is that or nothing. If they
were to construct their pleasure car
riages to rest on the solid axle, and
without the shadow of a spring about
them, 1t would be but a month till the
brainless apes on this side would be
doing the same thing, and shaking their
lives out in their enjoyment of the lux
ury. There is Just as much enjoyment,
and no more, in riding a tretting-horse
as there is in riding in pleasure car
riage without springs. From the hard,
and relentless Jolt of the trotter has
come the necessity for that idiotic bob
bing up and down with each stroke of
the horse. limitations are always vul-
gar, and especially so senseless a one as
this. It is no wonder English writer's
numerically score the t,adying teuden-
cies of ignorant and brainless American
tourists.
Provide an English lady and gentle
man of rank and commanding position
in society each with a handsome and
well-trained Tennessee or Kentucky
saddle horse, and after they have ap-
peared a few times in Hyde Park a big
ship load of them will be wanted.
The typical John Bull will stand aloof
for time and pronounce the PAGER "a
blarsted American trick, you know,
but when you have shown him, from
his own history, that for hundreds of
years the PAGER was as common in En-
gland as the trotter, that he was ridden
by crowned heads and by the nobility,
while the ignoble trotter was assigned
| 10 the use OF the eSqulreS ana other
menial attendants, he will begin to
warm up to him, and treat him rs an En-
glish production returned to his native
land after many years. This will finish
the fashion of the jolting trotter as a
saddle horse, and we will have no more
of the ungraceful and uncomfortable
bobbing up and down in Central Park.
Ladies and gentlemen will sit in COM
fort and ease on the backs of their
gliding saddle horses as though they
were part of them, and this may be
continued many hours without fatigue
or exhaustion. Who has the enterprise
and the will to reform the fashion of
the world by demonstrating the superb
ority of the American saddle horse
over all others, and thus plare him in
the position to which he is entitled on
his meritsP-W Wdllace's Monthly.

A Young Lady's idea of Marriage.

So she was going to be married; to
be mistress of house, settle in Lon
don; be able to 90 out in the streets all
alone, to shop or visit; have gentle
man all her own, whom she could put
her finger on any moment, and make
him take her about, even to the opera
and the theater; TO give dinner parties
her own self, and even little ball once
in awhile; to buy whatever dresses she
thought proper, instead of being Grip
pied by an allowance; have the legal
right of speaking first in society, instead
of sitting mumchance and mock mod
est; to be mistress instead of Miss
contemplate title; 10 be a woman in
stead of a girl; and all this rational
liberty, domestic power and social dig
nifty were TO be obtained by merely
wedding dear fellow who loved her
and was so nice; and the bright career
to be ushered in with several delights,
each of them dear to girls very soul;
presents from all her friends; as many
beautiful new dresses as If one was
changing her body or her hemisphere
instead of her name; eclat; going to
church, which is good English girl S
theater OF display and temple of vanity,
and there tasting delightful publicity
and whispered admiration in a heaven
" long veil which she could not wear
even once if she remained single. This
bright and variegated picture of holy
wedlock, as revealed to young ladies by
feminine tradition, though not enumer-
rated in the Book of Common Prayer,
so entranced her that time flew by unr

This Psalm seems TO have been compos-
ed after the return of the Jewish people
from the Babylonish captivity. At the
same time, Jews scattered in other coun-
tries, West as well as East Of Palestine,
made ii the occasion of their return and
reestablishment in the Holy Land. They
would naturally revive their institutions,
and celebrate with unusual fervor their re-
ligious services. In general it would be
time Of rejoicing and thanksgiving to God
1t is not pretended that their circum'
stances were just as ours today. We have
never been carried into nor recovered from
captivity; our national institutions have
not suffered decadence and need not resto
ration; our national piety has not suffered
!. eclipse, nor lost strength, and needs no re
juvenation. Yet there are some points o.
similarity too. This is national day;
day of Joy and thanksgiving; day of re
unions; a day of religious observances
Hence we may rightfully adopt the Psalm
