The hats for the seaside, the noun

encouraged themselves into freakish out
bursts Of genius and they will go down TO
their descer dants as pioneers in their
own field.
There is no predominant type Of hat;
perhaps the most ubiquitous Is the three
cornered Marquis. a tiny, coquettish
affair, with a certain military swagger
in it's upturned, rosetted brim. The Mar
cuises are trimmed only with ribbon or
velvet rosettes and rampant cockade or
aigrette thrust in well at the side. They
are, moreover. intended to be worn as
suit hats-a distinctive regulation this
summer, ! assure you. II is quite a

the cOlors Of the costume in them, or
those with a single shaded feather tOning
with the ombre stuns Of the gown.
Some hats look like the hanging gar

Quilts and plumes and flowers are another
fashionable hit. Colorngs are either
very good or execrable, for they tend to-

The amusing features Of Raum's pen
sion lists are constantly increasing. We
have already heard about the man who
was pensioned because he had a bald
head. and Of another who enjoyed Gov
eminent liberality because he had two
corns on one toe. But the funniest of all
the cases heretofore developed is that Of
the negro man in Tappahannock of whom
our correspondent wrote us Yesterday
He is a physical giant, because he is the
finest wheat Grader in the county. and
any one who knows anything about wheat
harvesting knows that grading requires
the greatest powers OF endurance. But
this splendid wheat Grader has an I'M
usually large big toe. and. therefore he
draws a good pension every month.
