Veivet pife cloths, piushes and yet. vety funcy articles, issued at iss. and u p ward per yard, ares advertised by al! the dealers in repute. These Winter noveities are warm without being aoa and much care and taste have been ewplayed in their production. They Will be of good service’ for the pardesers of the 1°65 Winter season, especially tor the Re- caffiter pardessus However, the paletot, of which the Recamier pardessus is bata variety, is certainly more tashionabie than aay other description of outer garment. Tne Harouda (sorts de bal) is worthy of special remark, as it is now both in form and urrangement, and is now generally adopted, instead of the some- what antiquated opera cloak of the previous years. Bonnets are still worn very small. and will continue to be so throughout the Winter; but their size does not interfere with their coinfort, as they fit closely tothe head and cover the ears. The little lace fall is indispensable. The tuume honored bayolet is almost entirely aban- doned, its place being occupied by the hair, covered with an invisible net. Acomplete revolution seems {to have tauren place in the modes during the pact tweive months. Such strange and such curious cus- tomes have already been sven in so short an interval, during which ladies perfectly comme wifaut bave alternately, not to say sometimes simultaneously, patronized boots, coais, canes and casquettes, without ufter iflcing any of their personal attractions, which, fortu- balely, they cannot abdic&ie by auy fashion freak. The Parisiennes thiok that they add to their charms by theese originali ies; and the latest sign of this closing season of artitice is the open announcement by the principal coif- feurs of ringlets atso much per doren, for wearing under the bonnet or by the side ofa bow.

Some very pretty novelties have come out in the way of half-dress pocket handkerchiefs !
