The fullness of the drapery falls free The BYZANTINE, which we illustrate above, forms an appropriate link between summer and autumn styles. It is characterized by its dignified aspect, its elaborate embellishment, and its easy adaptation to the movements of the wearer. The material is Gros d'Ottoman, of a Napoleon blue color, ornamented with black velvet bands, adorned with Oriental figures. A richly tasseled fringe adds much to the unique effect of this garment. Its form is ample, being box-plaited in the back into a yoke, which is smoothly adapted to the figure.

SLEEVES.-We observe a sleeve which, besides being in itself beautiful, is admirably suited for elderly ladies, or those who prefer to have their wrists covered during the cool season. It is of very simple construction. The fullness of the sleeve is gathered in box plaits a scant inch wide (very little being folded under), and 3 or 4 inches deep at the shoulder and wrist. The meeting edges of the

The sleeves are open and laced upon the outside, back of the arms, and are also trimmed with bows. The skirt is very full. The Hat is of straw, with a feather, and band of white satin ribbon, No. 22, arranged full, with a rosette upon the side opposite the feather. Chemisette of lace, fulled into bands of insertion. Pantalettes of embroidered muslin. Gaiters of black patent leather, the quarters of the same color as the skirt.-Figure 4 has a bonnet of silk; dress

Pantalettes of embroidered Nansouk.-The Boy's Dress, Figure 5, is composed of a biouse, cut squarely at the neck, open to the belt, which is of patent leather. The sides of the dress are confined by Brandebourgs and buttons. The sleeves are short and wide; these, together with the breast and skirt, are ornamented with braid. The under-sleeves, gathered into the wristbands, are of embroidered muslin, like the chemisette and balloon pantalettes. The Hat is of Leghorn, trimmed with an ostrich plure. Buttoned Gaiters.

THE HE soldiers of the Duke of Berri, having trampled beneath their feet the flag of the Bourbons, and elevated with exultant shouts the eagles of the Empire, marched into Paris, and with irrepressible enthusiasm demanded permission to salute their Emperor. Napoleon mounted his horse and rode along the lines, while resound-antee the rights of the people. We are about to ing acclamations burst from the enthusiastic battalions and squadrons before him.

We do not wish to meddle with the affairs of foreign countries But woe to those who would meddle with ours."

In the midst of peals cf applause, resounding through the most distant streets of Paris, Napoleon reascended the stains of the Tuileries, and
