Knllroud Connection between Florida
and Georgia.
Wo have been permitted to lay before our
reuders nn interesting letter from R. R.Cuyler,
Esq.,of Savannah,one of (he most sagacious and
successful Railroad projectors nnd managers
in tho Union. Containing us it docs the views
of the distinguished President of the Central
Road of Georgia in relation to the InternoJ
Improvement policy of Florida, it will bo read
with interest by our citizens, however much
tliuy may differ in regard to the wisdom of its
recommendations.
Tho present posture of the South-Western
Road, now working its way from Oglethorpe to
Americus, coupled with the receut movements
in Savunnah in favor of a direct communica
tion with Pensacola, point very clearly to die
fact, that tico great Roads, proceeding from
Savannah, one by way of Macon, Oglethorpe,
Aiuericus, and probably Albany, und the other
directly across Southern Georgia, are destined
to come together in tho vicinity of tho junction
of the Chattahoochie and Flint Rivers. Being
united, that tho resistless energies of two
poweiful Companies will speedily force tho
extension of the single line to Pencacola, no
one, cognizant of the enterprise, capital, and
unbounded credit of Savannah, can doubt.
What influouce these frets should exercise
upon the Legislature and people of Florida,
we are not prepared to soy. For ourself, we
freely confess our preference, first and all the
time, for a road having both its termini in our
own Staie, if such u roud enn be built and
supported, a matter about which there is per-
liupa serious ground of apprehension. But if
it shall be found that such a road cun be con
structed, (that is to HAy,aroad from the waters
of Pensacola Bay to those of St. John’s or the
Si. Mary’s)—then it would seem evident that
West, and particularly Middle Florida, should
unite their interests with those of Savannah,
and, if possible, bring tho Savannah and Pen
sacola road through tho whole extent of Mid-
dlo and West Florida. Tho interests of Savan
nah in the products and trade of Southern Geor
gia, leuving those of Florida outofeonsideration,
will direct this road as low down as through
the Counties of Lowndes and Thomas. A
slight Southward [deflection from this route—
and such an one as the capital and produce of
Middle Florida could most pressingly invite—
would briiig the road across our State line os
far East as Madison or perhaps Harail on
County. Running thence to Pensacola, we
should be furnished with the Railroad facilities
which Middle und West Florida so greatly
need, and f.otn the lack of which thoir inter
cats have hitherto so greatly suffered.
Mr. Cuylera Letter.
Savannah, December 10, 1852.
K. B. Hxt.ton, Esq.,
Dear Sir: In the lust conversation which 1 lmd the
pluuburo to hold with you on the subject of a con
nection by railroad, between till* city and Pensaco
la, you informed inn that it was your intention to
visit Tallahassee duriugthe session of the Legisln
turo of Florida, and you wore good enough to ask
my opinion as to the course which that Legislature
should pursuo towards the people and the iutorosts
of Georgia.
The importance of the connection referred to is,
at this da/, so universally admitted, thnt there is nu
need of saying much on that beud. If tho same
• iinvictiou of the immense value of this liuo of rail
way which now rests in tho public mind, had exist
ed four yours ago, wheu tho South western roud
win projected,there would have been,long ere this,a
connection between filacon and Fort Gaines, und
t irobably, between Pensacola und Macon. Up to n
tie period, 1 have always looked to the junction of
Savannah with Pensacola through Macon. 1 beg to
refer you to an article in your journal, republitdic.l
•n|tiio uppeudix.totbe first report of Mr. Holcombe,
»i*uod “ Suvunnab," and to two communications
•ifotxl »' C" iu the Republican of July, *-19, repub
lished in DeBow's Review 111 August or September
18-10, for my views on this interesting subject. 1
remain impressed with tho same goucrul views, but
1 yield to tho raurkod determination of my fellow-
citi/.eus in favor of a direct line from tho Gulf to
Hie Atlantic. 1 admit, for the thing is obvious, (lint
die direct line, if we can establish ft, will be the best
for this city.
I regretted to hear from you that, notwithstanding
toy disclaimer and full explanation before the peo
ple the impression still remained that my object iu
offering the preamble and resolutions presented by
too at the lute town meeting was, by mere paper
bo Ut, to kill off tho projectors of the Brunswick
r 9*d. Injustice has been done mo in this. When I
yielded to the determination of our people to have u
direct road,rather than tho 0110 by Mucon, I earnestly
desired to give proper direction to offorto for estab
lishing tiin direct communication. The fact that my
frllow-citizens preferred other counsels and auothor
plan to mine, has not, iu the slightest degree, damp-
"d my zenl in the promotion of tho great cause, for
1 •*« now, that the capitul mud intelligence being
embodied iu the enterprise, as started, will not fix
me line by Albany, but lower down the country,
*ner« all iho great interests involved require it lobe
The true Hue for Bavunnah and for tho general
interests of Georgia, iu iny judgment, is flirt indica-
,8 d in my resolutions. That line will, I believe, be
k,, opm,i f unless tho.Bruuswick proprietors, upon an
•toicahlo arrangement, yield up their rights, excopt
toe right of building nnd maintaining a rood from
Brunswick to tbut main line. Withsucharrangeuieut
told surrender, there would be no conflict of iutorosts
•®d the way would lie clear for the immediate es-
Ubliabment of the lino from Savannah direct to
Beusacola, with a connecting road from it to Druns-
***«• In that event, 1 tliiulc tho Bruuswick pro
prietors would obtain all they want on un outlay of
2 J|M»n half a- million of dollars. I am entirely
■•tuned thnt, let tho Brunswick proprietors build
to far and as much ns they may, Savauuah will have
hue (nnd the controlling line) from the Gulf.
A ‘ e re is no doubt, if two hues be built from the
•“•tUhoochio river—one to Brunswick and the
jtotor to Savannah—that the lattor will have the
to»el and the freight. AH this seems to me L> be
V* plain. Noihiug can make it dubious but a
^tose of legislation on the part of Florida in favor
•he Brunswick linn exclusively.
iT 01 ’ then, in the present posture of railway
°ud enterprise in Georgia, is the true policy
Jill 22“* This is un interesting inquiry, end I
m ' .to*deavor in seeking a proper reply, to place
j'j, j* *n the attitude of a citizen of Florida,

k i,?* Jkeu those of the people of Georgia.

ton. or it can be made directly with Brunswick or
with Suvuunsh. The Macon lino would connect
I ensarola not only with Savannah and Charleston,
hut with the entire railroad systom of tho Union. A
direct line to either Brunswick or Savannah would
terminate on the Atlantic, and would not be directly
(but indirectly) connected with that general systoiu.
1 bis brief statement would indicate the true interest
or Pensacola is to connect herself witli Macon. At
Macon the way is opeu, or soon will be open, not
only to the Atlantic at Savannah and Charleston,
but to Columbus, Montgomery, Nashville, Memphis,
Henderson, Louisville und Knoxville, iu a Western
uud Northern direction, and, further, to and through
out the two groat thoroughfares of Railroad which
will unite ut Richmond, und the linuthenco, through
tho Nutinnal Metropolis, to tho groat cities of the
United States and to Canada. Tho quickest line
for the transmission of mails belweeu Washington
City and Pensacola would be by Richmoud, Wil
mington, Manchester, Bruuchville, Augusta, Waynes-
borough, Macon, Oglethorpe and Fort Gaines or
Eufulu. Such a line would give more rapid travel
between Pensacola and Now York than a lino com
posed or Railroad from Pensacola direct to Savau-
uah, and stenni ships IVom Savannuh to New -York.
Convenience and rale of faro would bo in favor of
the latter, but tbe former way, lining all railroad,
would bo passed over more rapidly. By tho Mucoii
route tile connection with Savannuh would be per
fect ar.d sufficiently convenient, though somewhut
circuitous. By which line could Pensacolu bo sooti
est counseled with Savauimh ? The distanco from
Pensacola to Oglelhorpo (the present terminus of
the South western road,) is about 230 miles—from
Pensacola to Savannah about 390 tntlcs— from Pen
sacola to Bruuswick uhout 320 miles. What inter
ests would, in n uocnlinr manner, be promoted by
the Honth-westeru connection ? The Central Rail
road—Macon und Columbus und tho roads passing
through them—the Stale road of Georgia and the
North-west generally.—Through Macon, then, could
Pensacola soonest find her valuable counections
with the South Allautic Ports, with the interior,
with the seat of Government of the Union, and with
the greut Northern commercial uurts.
But the people of Savannah ucokihc direct line,
and aro resolutely determined to have it. Bruns
wick also seeks a connection. The interest of Flor
ida, then, us it appears to me, is to charter a roud
from the waters of Pensacola Bay, to, or near to, the
junction of the rivers Flint uud Chuttahoochoe, mid
10 provide funds to build it without the loust delay.
Such a road might fuirly be termed a roud common
to Macnn, to Savannah, and to Brunswick. In giv
ing such a charter, care should be taken to incite
the vurious lines which seek Pensacola, and not to
throw any off by any system of favoritism, by uny
exclusive grunt or devices whatsoever. Before ma
ny years roll round,Savannah, by a direct line, mid
the Southwestern Roud, will both he connected with
Pensacola, if tho energies of the people of Georgia
are not trammelled by tho legislation, or neglect of
legislation of Floridu. “ Muzzlo not the ox that
trcadclh out the corn.”
Quo might usk why I think so much of Pensacola,
and if Mobile and New Orleans are not cities of
f reater eminence and means. It is true that Mobile,
tsell overshadowed by New Orleans, now over
shadows Pensacola, and it is probable the urt of
man may never be able to bring Pensacola up to
the stature of even the least of these cities, anu yet
Pensacola is now of tho utmost importance to Geor
gia, and moreover, is destined to be a large city.—
My humble efforts have, for years, been directed to
Pensacola, becuuso that place pruseuts the best har
bor on tho Gulf of Moxico, and because it is tn thi
direct line from the mouth of the river Coatzaco-
alcos to IVashington and ISew York. By Pensaco
la, will Georgia be best connected with tho Pacific
Ocuun. What more or better could be asked or
expected, within the next twenty years, than lines
of steamships from New York and Philudelphii
Savannah, and from Pensacola to Coatxucoalcos,
and trora Vcutosa (the western end of the Tehuan
tepec railroad) to Nan Francisco—with tho Georgiu
and Florida lines of ruilroad running to Pensacola,
and tho Tchuuntepec road finished i Wliut bet
tor for Buvuunuh—whutbetter for New York—what
hotter for tho Uuion—what much better even for
Loudon ?
From the time at which Air. Dallas, late Vice
Presiduut, published his views ou Tehuantepec to
tho present duy, 1 have looked lo Pensacola as tho
terminus of Georgiu railroads with increasing inter
est and iucreasing fuitb. What though mountains
of difficulties have been placed iu tho way of Te-
huuutepcc ? The mind of the Union’s great stales-
uiuii, Mr. Webster, settled, ere his departure, tho
point that American citizens alone are to open, with
iron, tho great Cortes route for the commerce of the
world. All difficulties will soon he removed. If
uny one, doubting this, shall cxclnim thut “ Hope
deferred maketli the heart ftick," let biin re
member ^hft words of encouragement and delight
which terminate that proverb, “ But when tbe desire
coineth it is a tree cf life." Rest assurod that tho
desire 1cilt come to those who seek it with proper
spirit. Aluy not you and I (uudor the favor of Ilea-
veu) live to see men of all climes—sliaiptced China-
moil—exclusive Jupuncso und the inhabitants of the
Intos of that sweet Ocoao whoso placid bosom seems
destined to be the scene of grent achievements—as
well ns those who speak our owu language, passing
“ ou thoir windiug way," through this sunny South ?
Florida holds a great treasure in her great com
mercial and national harbor. That treasure is now
locked up, but if the representatives of her people
act with liberality, it will, very soon, he opened and
send forth a flood of blessings. 1 feel that the inter
ests of 1’lorida ought to be uouud up with those of
Georgia, and 1 would, therefore, beg her citizens to
E rovide the means of building a railroad to tho
hattuhoochio River, without delay. They will
thus secure a mighty thornughfure through a large
portiou of their territory—they will give uii outlet
for nil West and Middle Florida to the Atluntic, and
he, through that railroad, on llinir northern border,
and their great river aud their lakes on the East,
indissolubly conuected with “ the empire Stale of
the South.” Very respectfully,
Your ob’t

Mi*. Cans on Cuban A nuexation.
In the course of his speech in the Senate on
Thursday last,on Mr. Mason’s resolution,call
ing on tho President tocommunicate toCongress
the correspondenee between our Government
and France and England, in relation to the
proposed Tripartite Treaty, in reference to Cu
ba, Mr. Cabs said:
In this connection sir, 1 dosiro to submit a few
brief remarks concerning Cuba, us that islaud pre-
of the most dillTcult questions, perhaps tho
foroigu policy. Five years ug
scuta —
most difficult, in — .......
iu some observations 1 submitted to the Senate
the subject of the application of tho Yucatcso people
for tho aid of this government against the overwhelm
ing force of the [Indians, 1 had occasion to explain
my views, in relation to Cuba, aud 1 have since seen
□o causo to change ilium. 1 then said, “ self-defence
is ns necessary to communities as to individuals, uud
a provident forecast requires us to watch any dan
gerous projects of domination, and to provide for
tiieui us we can. I ropout, that a uation under tlicso
circumstances must judge for iu«lf. Proximity of
its situation, the nature of tlm intercourse resulting
from its commanding positions to do injury, and
oilier considerations, aro ull elements to he taken
into view. Iu iny opinion, wo owo it to ourselves to
avow distinctly to the world that the attempt to pro
cure tho transfer of Cuba from Spaiu to any other
natiou, whether peaceably or forcibly, would be
resisted by tho whole power of this country. To
others,it may be a question of territorial aggrandise
ment or of mercantile cupidity; but to usit is a ques-
iu of uocessit; 1 had utmost said, of politics! life
doalh. It would become tho guio to close the
groat river of our country. Tho waters of thnt
couutry, therefore as heretofore, would reach tho
Gulf, but its commerce would novor reach the ucoan.
“80 long as Cuba nnd Yucatan uro held by their
pro so ut possessors, neither we, nor the commercial
world have auything to fear from English projects,
whatever these may be." “ 1 trust, that tho in
trigues of no nation will ever compel us to take forci-
‘bio possession of Cuba." Much were my seutimonts
then, and such are my sentiments now.
So long as Spain retains Cuba, or should tho Island
become independent—truly und honorably so—we
have no right to iuterforo with it. And, for myself,
I should bo willing—desirous,indeed—at any tfuioto
purchase it of Spain, and ut a liberal, even at an ex
travagant price—but no transfer to another power,
either by peaco or wur, and the resistance ot such
attempt by all the moans which God lias given
us. And 1 have never utterod a sentiment, bore, or
elsewhere, inconsistent with these views, though I
have ofteu been charged with what is called filibus
tering projects, and that, too, by respectable jour
nals, during the Prosideutial contest—by the Repub
lic of this city, amongst others, and quite recoutly
by the Journal of Commerce, of New York. No
iiiau, editor or reader, has the right to prefer such a
charge against me. I believe 111 public us well ns iu
personal morul'ty.and I valuotlio honor of my coun
try at too high u price to barter it lor any scheme of
aggrandisement. Aud 1 embrace this opportunity
to boar my testimony of approbation lo the receut
conduct of the administration iu relation to Cuba.—

that an effort was uinkiiig to bring matters lo a ori-
is, by insisting upon the introduction of a porsou
upposod by tho governuinul of the island—wrongly,
indeed, as it subsequently appeared—lo ho danger
ous there ; and 1 commend ihecourte of our admin
istration in this affair. One of our citizens, howev
er, soeincd to think it Ids duty to interfere, und
whether voluntarily or involuntarily, almost to pro
voke a collision. I cousidrr his conduct equall)
presumptuous and unpatriotic. It could have been
to him a coinparitivoly unimportant point whether A
or B was tho purser of his ships,certuinly not a point
worth tho consequence* possiblo uudoveu probable.
And ns to the principle of oxclusiou—that wan u
question for the govorninnut, mid 1 think the govern
ment was right in the view it took of it. Tho honor
of the country, thank God, was not iu the keeping
of Air. Law ; it was in bettor hands.
Now, sir, I desire the possession of Cuba princi
pally as a military position, with a view to its vast
importance as the true key to the Mississippi. Bin
is a mere question of acquisition,the subject presents
no terrors to mo. I observed tho President views
it differently anil foresees strong objections to the
measure—to tho gennrnl principle, indeed, of the
extension of our territory, and there is u striking
coincidence between some of Ids suggestions aud
some of the reasons urged ngaimd the purchase of
Louisiana, wheu tlmt question was before Congress.
Time anil experience have come to put tho soal ot
approbaliou upon that great measure, and to refute
the anticipations of evil so confidently indulged aad
expressed. The inhabitants of French birth or do-
s».ent aro ax truly attached to this Uniou as any oth
er citizens of our country, and they have given
proofs of true patriotism, under circiimstunces of
trial, to which few sections of the republic linvo
boon exposed ; and such, iu my opiniou, would bo
tho result in Cuba, ns wall as iu any other region,
which it is nt all probublo will over make part of
our confederation. At first, indeed, there might he
doubts and difficulties; but tune and information
would soon remove them. And the ecnio of free
dom, and of r condition beyond the reach ofchnnge,
together with a rise in the value of property, which
is sure to attend an incorporation with us, and the
increased activity of business, would, oro long, do
thoir work, and convert tho population iuto zealous
anil putriotic Americans.
As to the geuornl subject of nnnexntiou, I have
new views lo disclose. It is pretty well known that
I have a capacious swallow ior territory, though 1
am froe to confess that I can wall a while putieutly,
if necessary, a. d spend the time in digasting
last acquisitions. They sit lightly upon the si
ach, and promise to promote the health of the body
politic to a degree surpassing tho sanguine expecta
tions of those who oxpectcd most from the measuro.
And wo cannot employ thismtorval of uniting better
than by thendoption of wise nnd efficient means to
bind our recent acquisitions to tho rest of the con
federacy by tho tios of interest as well as of affec
tion. And it is my decided conviction that ono of
the most important measures—tho most important,
indeed, for this government—is the construction, ho
far ns our constitutional authority permits, of n
railioad from some point upon the Mississippi to
tho Pucific Oceuti. 1 say somo point upon the Mis
sissippi, for it is perfectly indifferent to me where
it is, mid 1 trust the friends of this greut object will
1101 fritter away their strength by mere local ques
tions of direction and termination. Let those mut
ters he settled by commissioners, or in some other
pructical manner, but let us bend our uudividod
force to tho groat work ilsolf. When completed,
it is sure to he, it w ill hind this grent republic to
gether literally by bonds of iron, und by t'10 still
stronger bonds of confidcucu uud interest, aud San
Fruncisco will ho practically nearer the sent of
government thau Bavaunah was ut the adoption of
the constitution.
Wo are ofton asked by the timid and the cau
tious, where is annexation to stop ? Thnt ques
tion will not be unswered in my day, nnd 1 leave
its solution to tlioso upon whom muy devolve tho
duty und tho responsibility of deciding it. A
general government to conduct tho oxtonml relation
with foreign powers, uud to regulate tho interior
relations of the members of the Uuion, and State
government.* to provide for the great objects of
freedom and security, and for tbe various political
wants of the community, this American scheme
of political organization opeua a wide field for
operutioti—indeed, an almost boundless one. It
certainly far easier to preserve uroicuble relations
betweon neighboring States, acknowledging a fede
ral head, with the necessary provision (or the
pcuceable adjustment of difficulties, than it would
bo to preserve peace ninongnt them if independent,
when force and not rousou must be the arbiter of
thoir disputes.
A Drspkratk Fellow. — The Stockton
Journal of a late date contained the following
account of the arrest of a desperate fellow, a
Mexican, who was the principal in the murder
of two white tuen and a negro.
“ The Mexicali wlb captured at Benicia,
but on his wav to Mariposa in charge of tho
oflicer, he bolted und ran for it. lie was pur
sued by an oflicer from the Contra Costa ou 0
fleet horse. Ou approaching him, the oflicer
lired two shots at the Mexican which brought
him to a stand, when ho wheeled, and drawing
a knife, made a direct movement to attack the
oflicer, who iimtanlly levelled his pistol, nnd
firing, shot tho Mexican in tho mouth, tho ball
lodging in the back of his neck. He still ad
vanced,and the oflicer fired again,striking him in
tho right wrist, when ho chnnged his knife into
his left baud und still continued to advance.
The oflicer again fired, shooting him in the
shoulder, wheu the Afexicon closed on him
and cut his clothes in several places, but a
heavy coat and vest saved his life. The con
test was soon ended, however, owing to the
wounds the Mexicuii hud received, and he
wua again secured, brought back to Benicia
and started for Mariposu under charge of the
same oflicer who hud been so untiring in his
endeavors to trace out and capture him. Wo
understand that this daring ruflian is named
Sepulveda, and belongs to an extensive and
wealthy family in Los Angelos.”

Alta California says—“ There is no better fun
than to sec a Celestial on horseback. Now
and then one, iu taking a morning ride, or
turning out upon a public occnaiun, mounts u
spirited animal, and never for a moment thinks
of navigating by the reins. They take a death
grip with both haudB on the pummel of the
suddle, and sit and shout aloud in an unknown
longue, while the animal uses his own pleusure
as to speed and direction of travel.”
13*^A lecturer,addressing an audience, con
tended with tiresome prolixity, that art could
uot improve nature, when one of his hearers,
losing all patience, set the room in a roar bv
exclaiming, “ How would you look in a wig 7”
From llarpors Now Monthly Magsziao.
Fashions for Mid-Winter,
ime or IValking Dress.—Hair iu doublo ban
deaux ; in tlm lower one tin* hair from outside
toward the inside. It comes very low on the eur»,
and is continued behind. A plat passes across the
lop of the head, aud the bandeau formed ol the up
per hair also turns iuwurd. This bandeau, larger
than the under one, is also continued behind, and
meets the other in the hack hair. Redingote of ar-
e royalt. Body tight, continued on thu bipa, aud
ding off behind. To avoid plaits this body is
.n a peculiar manner—that is, the sides are in
tlireo parts. Skirt sewed lo the bottom of the body ;
very lull-gathered ut the sides and behind; almost
pluin in front. Ou the seams of the body, the edge
of the lappet, and the front of tho skirt is laid flat un
insertion of blaek galloon nearly au inch wido, on
which are set pretty velvet button*. The sleeve ia
composed of three parts: 1st. that of the lop of tho
irm, two and a half iuebos loug; 2d, the bouillon,
uretty wide, seven iueboa in length, and cut ■frot*
ug: 31 the gathered frill, five inches deep. Each
part of the sieeve 1s separated by a galloon like that
»n the dress. Collar and sleeves of Venice guipure.
Full Dress for Fisits.—Velvet Bounct. Brim
very narrow, and edges turned back, sloping off
well from tho cheeks, and not very forward on the
forehead. This bonuat is worn rather back; it is
trimmed with a how af satin ribbon and two rolled
feathers. Along each cheek inside are bows of rib-
bon mixed with a narrow blonde, aud on one side a
.hen curled (..<!■« proc.-).fromtbokau ut
turns round the bottom of the brim. *1 he hair is ar-
rvia id in voluminous waved bandeaux, filling the
ii te'ier of the brim. Tbe Kmbassadress Mantle,
> velvet par-dessu., trimmed with silk guipure. The
lop is close Mid high, hooked down tho ironi from
the neck to the waist. The bottom of the fbrnnnrt
square ends, the corner being cut off. Tho bul
ls much wider than the upper part, which is
hollowed out a good deal to malic way for tbe arms.
Tho whole deptti from theneek to the bottom is Junt
a yard. This garment is hollowed at the waist be-
hind, and what may be called the skirt forms largo
flutes behind, which round off on the fullness of tun
dross. Tho total length behind is from 37 to 3e
inches. The oruameut figures at the top a kind of
(iabritUt collar, formed by a guipure, with gothic
indentations about six inches deep, put on without
gathers to au insertion of two and a half inches wide
which is sowed fiat ou the volvet. and at the bottom
of which is gathorod n rich gothic guipuro twelve
inches deep. Tho uuipure of both top and bottom,
by diminishing it, Ys brought forward without Ibl-
ness, und ends at the lowoft hook of the forepart.—
A similar ornament runs round the bottom and the
part cut away for the arm; but the guipure that
bends this triinmiug aud the iusertiou to which it is
sowad are narrower; since, iucluding the flounce,
the whole is not above twelve inches, half oa the
velvet, aud half fulling on tlio dress. The Iming is
quilted satin. Drn»s of tfapvlcun velvet, the fash
ionable color. This tissue is a kind of grot de
Tours; spoline crosswiso.
Kuudy-mado gurineuts, including in particular
everything pertaining to the inuntlo genus, hold a
prominent place among tho uovoltios of w inter toil
et, sod preoent nn ulniOHt infinite variety both in tut
aud oruumeuL The full fluted form has decidedly
the preference ovor tho paletot kind. The present
cutis extremely elegiuit, and drupes g lady admira
bly, without any appeurnnee of scautiueis. There
is, however, oue article of female cotiutne which is
never likely to go out of favor. No made up outer
gurinont can ever dethrono it. This is the Skaicl.
It bus outlived every variety of paletot, cloak aud
mantle, uud has been and will always he looked up
on an elegant and chnruiing as ever, Tho most that
fashiou cun do is to introduco chaugea in the pat
terns aud colors which oruaiunut it. At present the
Canhinero has followed the prevailing impulse of
the fushiouable taste, and has become fantastic, orig
inal, fairy-like. Those which are omliroidered with
gold or silk of innumerable shades aud hues, art
especially in favor nt the present moment. The
Alrandar or Arlequin Cashmeres, ure much in
vogue iu Puris. Tney linvo different patterns in
four squares, so unto represent four shuwls at once.
Of thu innumerable varieties of tho inaiitlo kind,
wo proeont tlm two which, oq account of thoir nov-
olty and simplicity, present tho greatest claims, up
on tho regards of our Mr couutrywomcu.
* Montmorency. — Cloak of wide velvet, slant
wise without seams. Tho hood is round aad gath
ered at the edges. Tim opening that forms the
sleeve is trinunod with a biais sewed on, 5^ inches
wide by 25 long, exclusive of what turns back on
tho urm. The total length in front is 36 iuchos, and
behind 40^. The hood is U inches deep. CzuJno
Bonnet. The odgo is made of u hermine ribbon
with a satin border No. 16; the imitation of oriniun
in this ribbou is perfect. The rihbou occupies
hourly the whole width of tlm brim, which is round
ed uud close rather than open. All the rest of the
houuct is composed ol biais laid one on {the other,
so as to reach down to the curtain. On each sido
of the crown, aud turning ou the curtain, are two
ostrich feathers. The strings are of ermine ribbon,
No 40. This model is excellent of a hearl’e-ea«e
color.
Frileuse.—Tlm skirt is cut slanting, coming
tho nnn, und forming a aleove. At the top of the
skirt is u plain pelerine, ending at tho bend of tlm
nriu, nnd showing tho fullness hotter. Cardinul
Bonnet.—White terry velvet crown, forming a fun-
chon ou the curtain. Thu brim is composod of a
vorj lino blonde ulturnating with a roll of terry vel
vet, at tho foot of which is a roll of satin. Four os
trich feuthers form u wreath below the crowu as far
as tlm bottom of tlm checks, following the top of
the curtaiu.
