Eb FORE FASHIONS FOR JULY. At no season have the taffetas dresses been nore varied or more elegant than at present. Large flowers and checks are less in favor than they were: narrow stripes. sinall sprigs, spots, appear to be the favorite styles: these are frequently of the same c MONUMENT TO THE MEMORY OF PRESTON S. BROOKs. Yesterday we saw a very beautiful monu- ment to the memory of our lamented Brooks, which is now completed, and at the marble yard of Mr. W.T. White. of this city. This figure jor of the | monument is of the obelisk torm. pure marble, ground, but of a different shade. Drab ground, | of the finest quality, and finished in the most with a green oe oes s,s also a artistic and workmanlike wanner. It is four- : ey i! arivus ways—sume- : rey i ae worn high body. with basques, trinsmed with teen feet high tron. the pediment, and five feet square at the base. Near th the obelisk is a neatly designed arabesque, and below, in the centre and front side of the mon- ument, is the coat of arms of the State of South Carolina, elaborately worked and carved by an artist of great skill. Below this, and on the die of the obelisk, 1 an ivy wreath, in bold relief, encircling the following appropriate in- aeription : PRESTON S$. BROOKS, Born in Edgefield Village. 6th Angust, 1819. Elected to the State Legislature in IS44 Elected Captain é¥ Company D. Palmetto Regi- ment, in 1°46, an@ served during the Mexican Ter Elected to Congress in 1953, And died in Washington City. D. C., 27th January, 1*57 On another side, in a similar wreath, will ap- pear the following : “Ever able, manly, just and beroic ; illustra- ting true patriotism by bis devotion to his coun- try; the whole South unite with his bereaved family in deploring bis untimely end.’? And on the obverre side to the above, this inscription will be placed : ‘Earth bas never pillowed upon its bosom a truer son, Nor Heaven opened wide her gates to receive a maniier spirit.’’ On the back of the obelisk is this inseription : * Preston ®. Brooks will be long, long remem- bered. ometimes a hody with four points, but. See mont ok toned in front, and trimmed with plaits of silk or rows of buttons. Quilting and mohair dresses are made with very long basques, or rather, we may say, with large casaques, the sleeves being either pagoda or with deep frills. In the country and at the «aside they are almost indispensable for morn- ing toilette. The — are made exactly like those of 1 ear. White cotton-ball fringe is much used as a trimming for quilting dress which, when made with double skirts, are im- proved by the upper one being open at sides and or nied round the opening with ball frin metimes the skirt is entirely ev or trimmed ¢v t4/rer with rich embro'- in chain-stitch or biaid, mixed with ball ge Passementerie is very much used in trimming stall dresses, and is arranged in various way Ruches and plaiting @ /@ rei/lc are also much worn. A very pretty negligee dress ma: be made of drab chine taffetas, trimmed wit ruches a /# vei/le of the same material. We have noticed one dress with a double skirt, trimmed round with a broad crossway piece of the same material. Some thin dresses, grena- dine. &c., are made with a single skirt, very full indeed. The bodies are sometimes made with berthes, trimmed with ruches or fringe, or quite plain, fastened by buttons. When made with low bodies, a muslin or lace canezou is generally worn also. White mantles are be- coming greatly in demand. We have seen a very large round one, witha row of guipure, forming pelerine and capuchon. We have also seen burnous formed entirely of lace. At the seaside, very thin cloth burnous, with rounded hoods, are worn For evening dress moire antique brechee is still very much worn. Lace and ribbon are the only trimmings worn with these rich dresses, the only variety being in their ar- Tangement Alihough double skirts are so much worn, flounces are not yet discarded: very wide ones are perhaps the most distin- ae. Several narrow ones are nevertheless tequently worn, especially in thin dresses. Sleeves are made cither very wide, with puffs atthe top, or quite flat, up the front of the arm, where a bow is placed. Bodies are worn with two or four points, or with bands. With these latter, the band is fastened in front by a small diamond or steel buckte. Straw bonnets are still trimmed with black, mixed with colors. White ribbon striped with pink, green, or lilac, is, however, much used, and has a pretty, fresh appearance. Kice- traw bonnets are generally trimmed with Ax one in Whom the virtues lo Tho’ sad to us, and dark this dispensation, We know God's wisdom ordersall things well? The monument is a work of great beauty and ornament, simple withal, and expressive in its towering position of his spirit of whom it is a memorial Mr. White will, in the course of the week, send this monument by the railroad to Ham- burg, whence it will be taken to Edgefield, where itis toremain ‘There is prepared, we learn, the granite basis or pediment on which this monument is to stand. —C'har/eston Mer- cury. ved to dwell; SOLD. A Philadelphia paper is responsible fur the following : The pepular manager of a leading theater, in one of the iret cities of the Union, compelled, by hot weather. to close his establishment for several weeks, thought he could not do better than indulge his young and charming wife and himself with a trip to a fashionable watering- place. Accordingly, they started. Anintimate acquaintance, who called at the manager’s house. immediately after he had left it. discov- ered that a valuable gold watch and chain had been left behind on the parlor table. in the hurry of departure. This was the manager's own watch, and, without ado, the careful caller put it into his pocket, and conveyed it and him- self down to the very watering place where his friend had already proceeded. Compuaniesting what had happened to a few congenial spirits, friends of both f-rfles, the oe finder made out the programme of a delightful little plot — of the description usually known as “a se//.”" intimation was courteously given to the man- ager, who is a thorough gentieman as well asan excellent artist, that a number of his friends and admirers desired to see him, and a hint was dropped that a little presentation was on the § of the newest capotes are made of half straw and half taffetas.

The most fashionable colors sre Azot green, mauve, and Chinese blue: seculers are also worn. but the three first wentioned colors are the favorites. Spotted net bonnets are trimmed with wild poppies aud corn flowers. and have either black strings edged with a brigitt color, or white edged with black. For chapeaux de ville, the most charm- ing wreathes are formed with heart’s-ease, double laurel, szalias, honeysuckle. primroses, | jas. Accordingly, the Manager and his herr unripe grapes, and small | frients did meet, and one of the party, “a fel- plums low of infinite jest and humor,” improved the the ladies invited to Fontainbleau have | occasion by mak ng a neat and highly compli- adopted the fashion of the time of Louis XIV that is to - are wearing round hats, either of felt or straw, trimmed with feathers, red. white. green, blue, ke.

Much too well bred to “look a gift horse in the mouth,” the compli- mented Manager did not open the box while briefly and even eloquently returning thanks. The party then partook of something a trifle stronger than water. xfter which the pleased and always pleasant Manager thought the time had arrived when he might gratify his very nataral curiosity by looking at the beautiful presentation watch for which he had to thank the kindness of his friends. He opened the box, and saw—his own watch! He emphati- cally exclaimed, *‘So/2! Thia is my watch.”’ fume. must be considered a good exchange.

T. Barnum, for America. The whole paraphernalia, measur- ing some fifty tons, and accompanied by a score of machinists and assistants, sail for New York, in the steamer Kangaroo, on the 7th instant. The following description of this mechanical and artistic exhibition is copied from a late English journal: cay © most finished theatrical scenery is quite outdone by the beautiful animated views suc- cessively presented to the delighted audiences, and in some of the scenes. particularly the storm in the Black Sea, it is almost impossible to divest ourselves of the notion that the mimic scene is reality, and not a triumph of art. “The spectators seem to be in a cavern open to the sea, and looking out upon it through a dangerous chasm between the awful forms of towering cliffs; and at the extremity of one, which stretches into the sea, is the lighthouse, to warn the mariner of the rocks that hereand there project themselves above the billows These Rteratty roli and dash into a foam, while forked lightning flashes precede succeasive claps and roars of thunder, first distant, then nearer and then further removed, the sky being dark- ened to blackness and then rendered more elear as the fury of the storm is abated.

It is no mere show, or common place sight, but a rare combination of artistic beauty with mechanical genius.”” SRE nO A Pieters or Manower.—The following is &@ pen portrait of the famous tounder of Moham- edanism Shghtly above the middle size. his figure, though square, was handsome and command- ing, the chest broad and open, the bones and framework large, the joints well knit together. His neck was Jong and ficely moulded. The head. unusually | gave space fora broad and noble brow. he hair, thick, jet black, and slightly eurling, fell down over his ears: the eye-brows were arched and joined. The countenance thin but ruddy. His large eyes. intensely black and piercing, received addi- tional justre from their long dark eyelashes. The nose was high and slightly aquiline, but fine. and at the end attenuated. The teeth were far apart. A long black bushy beard, reaching to the breast, added manliness and Presence. His expression was pensive and con- tempiative. The face beamed with intelligence, ‘hough something of the sensuous also might be therediscerned. The skin of his body was clear and soft; the only hair that met the eye was a fine thin line which ran down from the neck towards the navel. His broad back leaned slightly forward as he walked; and his step wes hasty, yet sharp and decided, like that of one rapidly descending adeclivity. here was *mething unsettled in his apetlegec hich refused to rest upon its object. en he turned toward you, it was never partially but with the whole ly. WarteR-Srovut 1s tax Poromac.—A corres- | Ssaeers of the Alexandria Gazette, writes from empstesd, King George county, as follows : On the evening of Monday, the 12th instant, during the passing of a rain and wind cloud trom this county to the Maryland shore, a beau- tiful spectacle was presented in the formation of a water-spout, near the buoy on Persimmon Point Shoal, in the Potomac. The water was raised from a base, xpparently from fifty to one hundred yards in width, to a very great height when it was met by _ dark cloud, in the shape of an inverted cone of quite « regu- lar form, whose base reached many d upwards, to be lost in the mass of dark clouds that were swimming onwards ele) their re- freshing contents on the parc fields of our neighbors in Charles coanty. The spout, for some moments, seemed to stationary, and then it moved off with mueh rapidity until it reached the high banks on the Maryland shore, when it disappeared.
