Large plaided ‘chiefs of blue with white or yellow with red are being made up at the best furnishing houses in short suits for ladies to wearin the country. The souare handker- chiefs are pieced together and made to trim themselves by being arranged — with their most conspicuous stripes down the front and middie of the basque, through the sleeves, on the edge of curtain overski und at stated intervals in the pleated flounces. Two breadths of these handkerchiefs are draped to form a curtain overskirt by lapping them slightly at the belt in front, drawing thein back on each side, and tying the ends in large bunch- ed-up drapery behind. Less conspicuous than these are dresses of navy-blue handkerchiefs with white polka dots and striped border. These have the deep apron overskirt formed of three handkerchiefs shirred down the middle, and three pleatings of the striped border across it, representiny three aprons; others have jabots down the entire front made of long-looped bu of the striped border sewed together double the loops are then an inch wide and four inches @eep: tivo loops and two ends cut off bias are tightiy strapped together to form the bow, aud. these are put so tiehtly together that they form acascade or jabot. ‘The gayest figurea large plaid bandanas are yw made up for country suits for girls of ears, as follows: the kilt skirt has a deen yoke on the fips; over this isa long belted blouse that has two great box pleats in front, while the backK—which smust be futler—has a yoke across the shoulders, to which the fullness is rathered. ‘or little girls of 3 or 4 years the same gay large plaid handkerehicts are being made up for morning dresses in the conntry. ‘There are little slips with the whole front aid in taree or four box pleats down to a Spanish tlounce. while the fuller back has a yoke, to which the rest of the back is gathered. . ‘There is then a deep NS. - 3. square sailor collar -of the gay ¢mgham, made, separately, to button in front.

An important opening for the trade has just taken place, where the yery newest and freshest designs for tne comin, season in parasols, sun- shades, und sun-umbrellas were shown, Among the many Varieties that were displayed none at- tracted mure notive than the new parasul which isto take the place of the polka-dot coachin parasol of last year. It has been originated by this house, as in fact are all their styles. , ‘The article in question, which will create quite aripple in the fashionable world. is more like a Japanese umbrella than anytning elev, but this is not strange, as Japanese ideas wield a power- ful influence over all artistic desiens. There are sixteen ribs, 80 that the parasol spreads out very wide; these ribs are bronzed asare also the tips and the runner, The parasol cover is of some of those rich materials 60 much used for dregs purposes; satins, either plain or striped, the Stripes of one or two colors on con- trasting ground, and the “chic” effect is given to the parasol by a bandana _or Madras fining, which adds to izs Eastern effect. This style is also varied by the introduction of rich satin lin- ings of color: where the parasol is striped the satin lining corresponds With the prevailing tone of the stripe, and the lining is laid inside the bronze ribs so that the tinish of the inside is per- fect. ‘The sticks which correspond are odd, and varied in style; some have been designed by the house and sent to Japan to be tivished by Japan- ese workmen; but there is still a cheice among the varied woods and carved designs which make every article distinctive. ‘Thus a peacock satin parasol has an unvar- nished olive “handle with a carved pheasant’s head on which the plumage is silded and colored to imitate nature; and for every color used in the parasol there seems to be a distinctive head, swans, herons, pigcons,—each ‘carved per- fectly und with lifelike eyes such as are used by taxidermists for their stuffed specimens. ‘There isa material called “weicbsel” which yields vo hund-carving very satisfactory results, und this is much used. _Pongee parasols of real India goods are alsv lined with bandana, or with satio Huings corresponding with the color of their stnalldot patterns; these reproduce all the effects of the richer satin goods, and are also fivished in the same nobby manner without lace or fringe. Some have the Boruco rattan stick with the nstural formation of the wood form- ng the handle. Watered silk or striped satin suis of a more sober style are comiepunes falls of lave or fringe, with atternate® stripes, dull and polished, and ivory carved in ail the very newest shapes.

Sardou'’s New Play at the Boston Theatre—John Weiss. From Our Own Correspondene. Boston, March 20.—There is always a bitter feud ketween New York and Boston people. Pnbliely they will pay each other compliments at big state or complimentary bauquets, or on other occasions when the world is tooking on they will “‘do the handsome thing”? by each other. But underneath there burns the little fire of raneor. New York accuses Boston of setting herself up and considering herself su- perior to the restof the country in intellectual proclivities and culture,—witness the small slap T quoted last week from the Atlantic article ou New York theatres, concerning the “ complacen- cy ** of Bostonians in “ their well-known super- eminence iu the fields of moral and intellectual effort.” With these accusations go the corre~ sponding ones of coldness, stiffness, and bad manners. Boston retorts with comment upon “shallowness "and “ fastness,’ and makes herself generally disagreeable by doing the best she can for the time being in deserving the name that New York has bestowed upon her. As applied in the way of generalization, al) these onprobrious terms are of course absurd; as applied now «nd then to indiviauals on either side, they are true cnough, as we ali know. But because Mrs. Gotham occasionally chances to be “lows,” and : TALKS GARRULOUSLY OF HER DIAMONDS, ETC., while she with simulated naivete conveys a sneer to Mrs. Trimount on “the booxishness of you Boston people,” it is not therefore to be taken for granted that all the Gothamites are Tow and ill bred, eftlier about their diamonds or their envious little deprecations which they call ‘staking down” Boston pride. Neither, when Mrs. or Miss Triount lift their chins super- ciliously and drop their eyelids, and say, ‘ We don’t like that kind of thing in Boston, you know. We Boston people are very Enelish,” isittobetaken for granted that all Boston goes about with its chin in the air, and its eye- lids lowered while it gives forth its little com- placent brag, which holds within it a supercil- ious scorn of the bigger place. All this is apropos of two or three little incl-- dents that point the moral of the text. Let me present number one of these incidents: One of Mrs. Gotham’s daugiters, “BIG, BROWN, AND BUXOM,”” as Rochester described Miss Ingram, marries a ‘Tritounter, and comes to the city of his love to live, bringing with her a wonderful toilette such as she is sure Boston never saw the like of,—which was very true, because Boston, what- ever cise she may do, never errs on the side of “loud” dress at hotels and other public places of that description. And it was here that. my lady offended Boston taste to begin with. She appeared at hotel breakfasts in gorgeous morn- ing-roves, whereat the Boston dame and demoi- selle, who invariably presents herself at that matutinal meal in her walking-dress or ina dark demi-toilette house-dress, lifted her eve- brows nlittle and murmured, “ Loud.” But Mrs. Gotham-Trimount hears nothing and sus- reets nothing of this kind, and goes on her way rejuicing in the plenitude and magnificence of her clothes. Tue ‘Trimounters, however, over- look this toa certain extent. ‘It is New York, you know !?? But presently MY LADY OF THE WARDROBE, disappointed in not being welcomed as she bad ex- pected, attacks the “culture” of the Hubbites. She is invited to attend certain intellectual feasts where there is the inevitable. ‘ paper” read, on soine abstruse subject. And she re- herefrom clevating her eyebrows und dis- ing various little errors of ridicule. Now we area good mauy of us perfectly ready to make fun of our institutions and our fdols, but let a stranger try itat his or ner peril! The stranger, too, it the disadvantage of offend- ing certain canons of good breeding by ridicul- ing the entertamer’s feast, eo that the offense is redoubled, and the wrath and scorn of the Hub- bites bag excuse to rise into a white heat. Mrs. G.-T., however, not yet learning wisdom by the polite punctures of disdain which are ad- ministered by these scornful ones, next expresses ner tind upon literary people generally in a way thas revexls something of her soreness. She chauces to express this, or she plans to exoress it to two or three ladies whose dearest friends are in the blue book of literary celebrity. ‘Then her doom is sealed, xud she wakes to find that “little Boston,” as she concemptuously terms her scorners, has deliberately turned its back upon her, and pronounced her ineligible to Boston’s “best society.” Of course this is a flagrant case, but itis the flagrant cases that catse all the rancor. Now to turn to the other side, 1 will let Blondina tell the story of a Bos- ton woman who has always deen eld up as 3 model, and who is a member of this ‘ best soci- ety.” “1 was sitting in + Osgood’s’ one day,” seid Blondina,—by the way, let me explain that “Qsgood's? meant the warerooms of the great publishing-nouse when it was on the corner of ark street, aud a general readezvous for all lit- erary neople,—“and as [sat there there came in, first Mrs. Commeilfaut. 1 WAS DELIGHTED to meet her because I always bad a great ad- miration for her, and had believed in her good- pess, her sincerity, and ner genuineness, and specially stuod to her fine breeding when ’ vari- ous people criticized her cavaiierly. When I had heard people sneer when she advocated some reform, and hint that it was only a senti- ment with her, and that she advocated it partly for that sentiment and partly for her own glory, and never for genuine, earnest belief in the cause, I scouted the sneer and the hint. Even while they held on, however, and I had no weapons wherewitb to demolish this kind of at- tack, I consoled myself with one thing: my admired Mrs. Coinmeitraut was a fady,—a woman of perfect breeding: nobody could’ at- tack her there. Well, to return to Osgood’s, I was sitting there that day, having a charming chat with Mrs. C., when in came two delightful Western friends who, Lam sure, had an equal admiration for the celebrated Mrs. Commeilfaut that Thad. As we all three inet we fell to talx- ing of Mrs. C.’s approaching garden-party. ‘Have you invited Mrs. Leo Hunter? inquired one of ihe Western friends, who was interested in Mrs. L. HI. from her hospitalities, and really was desirous of meeting her again. Immediately Mrs. Commeilfaut's delicate eyebrows co up, * Yes L have invited her, but it was like taking a dose of medicine !? For the space of a minute you could have heard a pin drop in the vicinity about us three. EMBARRASSMENT WAS DEPICTED ON TUREE FACES,— x those of the two Western friends, and on that of your humble servant. Mrs. ‘Commeilfaut was entirely at her ease. For myself, something had: broken,—an illusion had gone up. That my Mrs. Commeilfaut, of whom 1 had always boast ed as the pink aud pattern of delicate breed- ing, could speak thus and to compara- tive strangers of a verson whom she had bidden to her house, and of whose hospital~ ities she herself had partaken, was a bitter blow eal! Later I heard iny fatlen idol com- ment thus upon a young girl ‘who was not in her own walk in life, but struggling upward, by means of voice-cultivation, to be a help to her- self and oth *Yes, she has a very good yoice, but my Marian would say that she was a little’ yulgar:? A comment wholly unnecessary, and, alas! reflecting sadly on the mature speak- er. After this,” pursued Blondina, *[ gave uo my idol with my ideal. We are none of us per- fect, but we have a right to expect that an ideal shall, when unprovoked of temper or other great trial of the nerves, speak fairly and gently, or be able to hold in reserve by golden silence what was never made to be spoken.” {have allowed Biondina to tell this little tale to show that it won't do for any of us to brag about Boston and compare it vaingloriously with any other city, Here was one of the women of whom Boston brags offending good taste and good feeling more.than THE FINELY-CLOTUED MRS. ; MOUST 3 for,'and with not half her expense. The above incidents are neither of them fictions, and I haye given them just now to point the moral of my text, as I have said. Mrs. Ward shows, in her valuable book ‘Sensible Eti- guette.”’ that in the range of her long and wide experience of life and society one, need not ex- pect to find good breeding always where ove looks for it, but that when we do find it it is of more value than any other distinction. But from this real stage let us turn for a moment to the mimic. and look at Sardou’s new play of “Andre Fortier.” ‘The play was written expressly for the Boston Theatre, and this fact, with the accompanying fact of the e: ceptionally fine scenery, ‘dresses, cte.. excit much anticipation, sud the anticipation was cer- tainly not disappointed in these directions, though the play itself did not quite come up to Sardou’s highest mark, which everybody who GOTHAM-TRI- “Well, she was as sweet a3 a posy had thought about the matter at all felt that we had a right to expect. Sut it was a play WRITTEN TO ORDER. ‘That explains whatever may secm artificial or overdone. ‘The whole Ut Andre Fortier: the Hero of the Calaveras ”—suuzested to most. people at once something im the Brete Harte style. M.Sardou may have very possibly got an idea that in writing a play for an American stage Mr. Bret Harte’s writings would be a very suggestive tield, but there seems to be nothimg further suggestive in the play itself. It is es- sentially a Frencainan’s work, and luckily the Frenchman had the good taste not to attempt a Yankee. ‘The chrracters are Mexican and French. ‘There are some very telling scenes, sand some of the long and tedious conversations that hurt the opening night have been cut. ‘The story itself is melodramatic, and the play fs Freoch melodrama with a lurid light of blood- nd-thunder and villainy flung in with a more lavish band than is M. Sardou’s custom usually; but be probably thought that the American boards would appreciate it all the more. ‘The localities of the play are San Francisco and Mexico; the time, 1819, in the early days of gold excitement. Just to note the characters will give something of an idea of the scope and plan of the drama: Andre Portier, a young French doctor aud naturalist; Ponquasse, 2 thief; Yannos, his companion; Dou Alvarado Carropai, 4 Mexican capitalist; Simon Fortier, Andrés father, aud Treasurer of the Mining Company; S#. Ludin, a young prodigal from France; Labustide, aninn-keeper; Warianne, Aaughter of Aivarada; Eva,a San Francisco girl. ‘The scenery, dresses, and furniture were marvels of richness, and the management of the spectacular sensations, such as the explod- ing aqueduct upon the raging fire, shows even an adyance upon the greatly-admired scenic dis- plays of “The Exiles” at the same theatre last winter. Altogether BOSTON PEOPLE FEEL VERY PROUD of having Sardou write a play expressly for them, and that they have a big theatre like the Boston Theatre that can undertake and carry out such a costly enterprise, Aud while I write of the players and the stage, some one comes in and speaks of John Weiss, who was buried last week,—Jobn Weiss, who was the greatest friend and admirer of both players and playwrights, as the most eloquent of his books, ‘Wit, Mumor, and Shakespeare,” shows. Mr. Weiss had been ailing for some time—since last June, I think—with a pulmon- ary trouble, but it was not until quite recent! that his friends began to fear a fataf and swift termination. All over New England, wherever Mr. Weiss had lifted up his physically weak out mentally powerful voice in the elucidation of his radical philosophies or his literary genius, there is a general burst of sorrow at bis de- parture. ‘Ihe Radical Club, which bas lost others of its members, and gradually shrunk in proportions, has lost in John Weiss its shin- ing light; for wherever he was there could be no dullness, and on many occasions what promised to be an especially dull meeting—what Emerson calls “2 mush of cou- cession "—has suddenly been stirred up into exceeding liveliess by this original and humor- ous debater and questioner. { remember once especially, when Mr. James had been reading a paper that nobody could quite understand or folluw, and where the conversation that ensued threateved entire inanition, how John Weiss flung into ‘THE MILD MUDDLE his wit and humor until the audience were con- yulsed, and the essayist at a white heat of irri- tation and sparkle. Mr. Weiss was Jacking only three mouths of 61 years. He did not look over 50, and when his wit and humor were 1n full play in social life -he was a3 merry as 9 “boy. Perhaps one of the most notable of Mr. Weiss’ characteristics, and the “most valuable, was his great ingependence and originality. He took the path always that his mental progress indi- cated, waiting for uo man and following no man, and in this he made no effort, and was not per- petuaily under protest or forcing his views upon others?_ He was simply self sacrificing and sustaining. It will be long before we look upon tus like again P $e OLD SIMON THE SENATOR. New York Wartd. Old Simon the Senator keeps a rare store Of rasroads and Government stocks.
