dinner given to him at ST. James's Hall re-

Americans that we must take u large dis.

And at his exhibition his get up and bearing

The exhibition was much commended,
though many OF the garments had been taken
almost at random from O stock of ready
made clothing. for which designs had been
furnished by Mr.. RYAN, he being in the SER
Vice OF large manufacturers OF such clothing,
and getting, as we are informed by the Chair
man above named, salary equal to that OF
some Of the British Cabinet Ministers. Tho
garments made to order were also numerous,
and their cut. trimming, and making were
generally admired, though the criticism was
offered that they were "too deliberately
finished, and extra elegantly trimmed" But
it could not be denied that our tallors turned
out better finished garments than the Eng
lish. who often fail In that respect.
The ready-made garments excited the
most interest and surprise. for they were
much superior to those offered for sale in
England, where cheapness," according to
the Tailor and Cutter, sis universally asso.

America. where very much OF the ready
made clothing is turned out In the finest
style, both as to materials. trimming, and
workmanship, some OF 1t. indeed. being made
up in way which can scarcely be surpass-
ed" The salaries paid our leading cutters
also provoked much surprise and envy. One
OF them gets eight thousand dollars year,
one six thousand year. and many from
forty dollars to seventy-five dollars week.
The highest pay is given by the great ready
made clothing houses, whose patterns are
cut by men OF extraordinary artistic ability.
Mr.. RYAN also visited Paris, and there
conferred with NJ. LADEvEzE, 1.-The noted
gentlemans fashionist" The most interest
ing part Of their conversation, no says, was
upon the important matter OF trousers. q
garment which Mr.. RYAN rightly regards as
one that especially taxes the resources of
the artist. 1t seems that he had previously
observed that the trousers OF well-dressed
Partisan gentlemen were peculiarly cut and
manipulated. NJ. LADEvEZE explained the
