Spring Fashion Notes.

From Godeys Lady's Book.
The new bonnet frames are mostly
small.
Floral designs predominate in the
new sateens.
Jet figures prominently among the
new trimmings for spring.
In Paris black dresses are prefer
red TO coored ones.
Ottamon silks will be much worn
this sprlng.
Fail. cloths, like a cotton gros
grain, with satin finish are new this
season, and very pretty.
Pressed leather with colored fruits
and flowers and applied silver orna-
ments, is used for card cases.
Black cheviot is a new material
imported for ladies in deep mourn
ing.
Dotted wells are extensively worn;
they are, however, very injurious to
the eyesight.
Gendarme blue is so becoming that
English women have revived it.
Many OF the new hats for spring
have Tiny stuffed cat on top, the
latest thing in millinery.
Some of the new silk finished sa-
teens have fine diagonal twills, 9th
ers have damasse effects on stripes.
-Morning dresses Gis pale pink or
blue cashmere, embroidered with
rosebuds, form a part of brides out
fits.
The fish wife pokes for children
are made of white null and very fine
insertion.
notwithstanding the preference
for flowers as bonnet garniture, many
of the hats are laden with ostrich
plumes.
Gold thistles aud burrs find a
prominent place among the lace and
flowers for garniture.
Metal buttons III the most pecu-
liar shapes imaginable are worn;
small buttons are also worn.
The natural hues of flowers have
never been more admirably depicted
than in the new brocaded silks.
The fancy for japanese fans is de-
clining, while the artistic work in
Chinese, French, and Vienna styles,
remain popular.
Basket plated straws in the new
shades are among the novelties in
hats and bonnets.
