JMrs. Bloomer, the lady who edits the “Lily,”
and who has created such a sensation in New
York, not only by “donning the pantaloons,” but
by advocating the movement as one that should
be generally adopted by the gentler portion of
creation, thus describes her present apparel, and
suggests various improvements:
“Our costumes is as yet by no means perfect
ed; there is a lack of harmony in the dress we
now wear, which is nothing different from the
reigning fashion, except that our skirts have been
robbed of about a foot of their former length, and
a pair of loose trowsers. of the same material as j
the dress, substituted.
These latter extend from the waist to the an
kle, and may be gathered in a band buckled round
the' ankle, or, what we think prettier, gathered or
plaited up, about two inches in depth, and left
sufficiently wide for the foot to pass through, and
allow of their falling over the top of the gaiter.
They may be trimmed to suit the wearer. In
stead of the whalebone bodice, the dress should
be made with a sack front entire from the shoul
der to the knee, and a tight back, with the skirt
gathered in as usual; or cut the hole in the sack
style—fitting the form to the waist—and then
fc let it swell out, giving sufficient fulness to the
skirt. Shawls must be abandoned, and a sack or
S ' mantilla take its place; a nice fitting or boot gai
ter, and a round hat, would make the whole
unique. Our dress is thus far a mere experiment,
and not what we think it should be. It takes
time to revolutionize one's wardrobe, as well as
one’s opinion.
A Sentimental Robber.—A fellow entered
the house of Mr. Fitch, in St. Louis, recently, and
rifled the bureaus of their contents. He was not
satisfied with his theft, but seeing a young lady
asleep he stole a kiss, which aroused the sleeper,
who seized the thieving rascal by the coat, rais
ed an alarm, and the fellow was caught and safe
ly lodged in prison, Where he will have time to
reflect upon the danger of indulging in sentiment
when business is to be attended to.
Rufus Choate. —The New York Evening
Post, noticing the appearance of this dist inguish
. ed lawyer in the Methodist Church case, in the
U. S. Circuit Court at New York, says:
“In person, Mr. Choate is tall, thin and arrowy,
with a dark coffee-colored countenance, lustrous
black eyes, crisp black hair, and a peculiar ner
vousness of manner, which causes one to suppose
I that he must be an enormous consumer of Mocha.
His speaking; however, is more deliberate than
i one would infer, from his general constitution.
The tone of his voice, especially in its cadences,
are not unlike Mr. Emerson’s, with less softness
and greater volume, but with the same occasional
nasal twang which markesthe accent of the New
Englanders. Yet it is deeply sympathetic and
we can easily understand its power, when he ap
peals directly to the feelings.”
O'Brien and Meagher.—A letter from Van
Dieman’s Land states that Smith O'Brien has
become tutor to a gentleman’s family in the colo
ny, and that Mr. Meagher is about to vary the
monotony of “ convict life ” by taking unto him
self a wife, in the shape of Miss Bennett, a far
mer’s daughter.

some good clothes, and will probably wear a vest

his left hip bone there is a scar about the sizo of a
dollar, where he says he has been shot—this is
darker than the skin. He has several scars on tho

old, six foet high, weight 180 pounds. He is rather
likely looking and intelligent. John has been in
