NEW YORK. PRETIY TOILETTES, Snecsal Correepundenes of The Tritune. New Yorw, July 4.—No matter how many peopie desert the dear metropolis, nor how many hot present to the passers-by blank conutenances unrciieved save by non-committal ercen-hollad -shades,—no matler how many beaux aud belles turn their backs upon the city aud seek * green fields and pastures new!” for enjoyment and conquest, New York is ai- ways full, and it js bard to miss any onc among the throuzs of clegantiy-attired dames and demoiselies who promenade Broadway aud the avenucs, or lie back os luzurious cusbions be- hind high-stepping bays, and whirl toroush the park. Dainty toilettes, full of summer bright- uess and lightness, enliven the streets. One or two very pretty toilettes I encountered in half an hour’s walk. The first was, I should judee, ap imported dress,~for we here cannot quite originate costumes at once 0 bizarre and g0 pretty a8 some that come tous across the water. The skirt was of fine French foulard cambrir, in color a handsore dark bine. A deep zathered flounce was on the bottom, and at the cdge of the latter wasa finger deep pleating of another sort of cambric. This has aground of dack blue variegated by stripes of different widths fo light olue, grecw, scarlet, and yellow. Above thie fiounce was a bfas fold of this striped cambric cdzed on both sides with a cording of plain hlue. The overskirt had an aoron front cut open down the immedi- ate centre and having a plain stralvit picce of fancy cambrfe inserted. The side picees were of this latter, and the back was of blue finjzhed with fine pleatings of the striped variety. The basque, which buttoned from the bust to well below the belt-line, was of plain blue, havine a coat-shaped opesinz and Japels at the neck, and showig 2 chemisette and Misses Helen and Myrtic, will lcare for Niawara Falls Tuesday nicht b: Jake to Bofixlo.

Mise Carric Barton returned to her homeat standing collar of tac striped cambric. A eravat of plan white lawn passed around the collar, and was tied with 2 simple how in front. The siceves were of striped cambrie, with decp cuffs of plaln blue trimmed with plnitings of both cambrics. The equare coat-tuil in the back had the cnds folded back like revers, and showed a lining of striped cambric. An English weiking-hat of_navy-blue strar was worn Wwith this toilette. There was alsoa scarf of blue arenadine, with bourette effects fu scarlet, yel- low, green. It was banded loosely around the crown, and an irregular-shaped bow at the left. There was also a wine rich wiih rainbow tints, which completed the trimmiog on the hat. A sun umbrella of dark blue silk was carried. It was orpamented around the edge with loops of double-faced narrow ribbon, dark blue and scar- let, with an_occastonal oncof yellow. Taken altogether, it was a rather conspleuous dress, but, withal, quite striking and not in bad taste. Apother . EXTREMELY PRETTY COSTOME was one of bunting,—uot the wiry, bristliag bunting of last sunimer, but 2 soft, fine, dexi-; ble goods, more like allwool delaine. The color is a fich cream, nat very Hght. The skirt s a deep side-plaiting reaching to the knees, and tiufshed st the top by & raw ot finger-deep black velver ribbon. The overdress consists of three upturncg folds, which are passed smooth- 1y around the tigure and termivate 1n the back in o Inrze, gracelul knot, or rather a sgccession of knots. ' The edie of theoverdrass just below the bottom fold is cut out in squarcs, Which are hound with black velvet, and between every two of which hangs baudsome black chenille tassel. ‘The walst consists of a yoke (o whicn is attached a plaited Dlouse, which covers the hips. It also is cut out in squares about - the cdge, and is velvet-bound, aud lhas the chenille tasscls. Round flav buttons of bisck velvet fasten it down the front, and the broad collar and deep square cufls are also of black velvet. A Ubelt, quite wide, of the same wiaterial, contines the blouse at the waist, and & bow with long ends is placed a little to the Jeit, where the belt fasiens. The hat ac- companying this charming toilette was borough of satin braid of a rich The broad upturned brim is faced with black velvet, loose folus of the same encircle the erown, and a lonz superb ostrich feather, also cream’ colored, lends additioval ornament. A parasol of cream-colored silk, cnviclied witht gelicats apolique tirures io black velvet, snd finished around thoedee with loops of narrow velvet ribbon, is asother detail of this dainty toilette. THE PLEATED WAISTS with yokes ike the one In this outlit daily increasc in fuyor; they are so becoming 10 pretty, slen- der figures, and so comfortable that one cannot wonder at their popuiarity. Onc feature they possess, which is an advantage the majority of people eannot afford to disregard, is their great . suitability for renovated dresses. If onc has only sinall picees from which must be producea a pieasing and symmetrical whole, what more avatlable or mare satisfactory than the pretty pleated waist? If needs be, one can meke cach pleat of a separate piece, with quite a8 good un effect as if uocut yards bud been used. ~ A very lovely aress 1 heve seen was inade in this style, but I'would defy the sharpest oyes to.detect the stratagem. The skirt, of plaiu pink lawn, has threo floun tirst’ oue of striped lawn,— inch-wide stripe of pink aud white,~then one of plain whitc lawn, and above it another of the striped lawn. The two of the latter material are cut bias. ‘The over- dress is of striped lawn, and Is trimmed to cor- respond with the skirt, the ruflies being quite narrow. ‘The walst bas a yoke of striped Iswun to which the pleats areattuched. Wiere the 10 joiu is a very narrow ruflie of white luwn. ‘The pleats cousist of first a plain white one, then one of plain pink like the underskirt, and so continue fn reculsr alteruation. A belt of plain puk, edged on each side by a tiny white ruflle, confines the pleats at the walst. The sleeves are somewhat longer than elbow siceves, and are ornameuted by three parcow ruflles of white and the striped Jawn. One must see the duioty dress to believe what can be done with “serips,” premising alwags that the “scraps” sre in ‘moderately good coudition. In this dress, both the plain pink and the striped lawn wers old, but well preserved, while the little wlhite cmployed was purchased ut o criflin pepse. Opc can hurdly believe wonder cun be wrought with a taste and ingenuity. what little < 1 know a Jady, & leader of fasbion, whose wealth places her fur above thy make-shifts of less fort ¢ people, und whose toilettes are the admiration and euvy of ber peers, who by being what she fs loses s most exeellent modiste co the world.

PARLS. INDIAN SILRS, Spectal Corresputiience of The Teibunz, Parns, Juse 22.—0f all the brillizut tollattes seen st the Exposition Universelle, those of the new “sofe des fndes * are the most reciierche. In fact, nothing coutd possibly produce a niore charming effeet than these draperies of rainhow hues, shuding into the deep rich tints over which they full so gracefully. The latest importation of these roods direct from theland of sun and flowers] intensely excited the fashionable world, and the “Malle des Indes’ was thronged by s aud Parisians xhausted.

VISITING ANOTHER RENDEZVOUS of fashion, the “Ville de Lyon,” pumercus noveltics met my view. Prominens amous these are the tichas Wattcau, in Pomnpadour and Jardiniere styles, the former of cmbroidercd tulle, the latter in silk applique, with satin Jily- of-the-valley fringe. These ‘mignon fichus, legant in black and rold, and mn black shincre desigms, will doubsless be gener- ally worn by the beau monde during the teat of summer, instead of the larger ones now so much in vogue.

Mineling 1n the human tide on the Champ de Mars, Parisiaus must be surfeited with many of their styles, which are imitated by all the representatives of the world, and even by the ebouy-ilwed dzughters of Zanzibar. desire to follow all the whims of Parisians is, alas, too olten indulged in by members of the Amcrican Colony, aud tie most trivial changes instituted by leaders of fashion ARE NOTED WITH ZEALOUS CARE. Thus, the Baroness de Rotchschild gave one of the most clegant entertainments of the scason, where she concluded to vary the conventional style of bou&uct by carrying orchid blossoms ouly. Accordingly, these flowers were intro- duced in the drawing-rooms of some of the Americans, but were soon discarded on account. of the almost deadly cffcets produced on one occasion, These flowers, which well sulted the immense reception-rooms of the palace of Baron de Kothschild on the Rue Fromeutin, exhaled a deadly poison when confined in comparatively small’ Tooms and in sreater profusion; for fo the formes case the Baroness Wwas the only one who ventured to carry the dangerous flowers, white in the latter, numcrous ladies wishing to follow the new fashion were obligred to dispense with their bouquets early in the evening, A word now abont the pretty bonnets so much in vogue. Ido not allude to hats, but the charming cottaze bonnet tied under the chin, without any compromise with the ideas of those who. under preteuse of followingr this becoming style, use narrow ribbon sid tic it so low, mth strings brought from the back of the nat, that they present a painfully useless appearance. Parisian helles are less fastidious about wearing styles becoming to youug and o}, and therefore wa see many assuming the bow directly under the chin, although this is almost universally adopted by their mothers, This custom is de- cldedly reversed in American soclety, where it is supposed _that age will be leveled by discard- ingg all that is becoming and appropriate to those ot mature age, althongh it may be equally so to the young. ‘The refreshing uovelty of these cot- tagr¢ boatiets will be acknowledged with vou if unce tested. MarTuiLpE. ART NOTE Exhibition of the Royal Acadomy of Arts of 3 London. o the Editor of The Trivune Loxpoy, June 20.—The pictures exhibited at Burlinzton House this year are by no meaus equal to those of many exhibitions that I have witnessed here, 1 1, theretore, name but few pletures it will be that there are but tew wortn mentioning. ™ The reason assiuned by many for this apparent falling off js that the depressed state of trade mukes the picture market far {from active. ~ Notwitbstanding this fuct many of the best artists, Royal Academicians and Associates, have done good work. Mr. J. E. Millais, R. A., exhibits four pictures, two of which are very striking. The tirst, No. 21, is a picturc of the young Princes fn the Tower. The two boys stand hand in hand at tha foot of a flight of stone steps. ‘Their little white drawn faces are painfully pathetic. The velvet of the boys conts, a straw which has becn dropped upon the stair, are rendered with & carefulness of detail which has not characterized many of thie luter works of this celebrated artist. No. 807 is ealled A Jersey Lily,” nud is the portrait of the great London belle, Afes. Lang- try.
