THE NEW ULSTER. (From our Own Correspondent.) New York, March 31, 1830. ‘There is a great deal said in regard to the im- provement and beauty of fabrics for woman's dress; of the development of design in accord- ance with correct ideas of art and taste, and much of it istrue. The advance in depth and variety of celor, the application of skill and genius to every day needs, and above all the education which the masses are recelying ta correct ideas of forms, are not only adding to our resources and stimulating the employment of faculty, but, they are rendering a return to some of the more outrageous follies of the past impossible. 1n the meantime, however, while artisans are weaving all the glories of earth, water and sky into textile materials, to be used as Clothing for the human, the human is left to take care of itself very largely, and as yet shows no added beauty of face or form to fit It for its gorgeous habiliments. When ladies grow so fastidious In regard to the detleacy of their surroundings and the luxury and delicacy of their clothing, one naturally Jocks for a corresponding fineness and dainti- hess in the wearer, and as a general rule one 1s disuppointed. The frame should fit the picture, and rice versa, and it is quite time we began to !m>rove the physique of men and women to fit their clothes; at present the clothes have the advantage. What ts the use of putting white satu and delicate lace upon a crow, or an owl, ora pig, or a buzzard? Would thr appearance and propensities be made all the more striking by comparison? Dress should always be sitb ordinared to the wearer—it is the woman tl lives, not the dress—and to see respectable rotundity waddling about in gay colors, bearing a burden of flounces and drapery ane overskirts and plumes and passementerie and fringe, the puffy face displaying itself In jauntiest hat, 1s a Sight which 1s rather pitiful than one to excite admiration. So also one must feel a sense of incongruity at the sight of a narrow lower of bones very thinly covered by yellow skin rising out of a sea of glittering splendor, and one can but think how Inappropriate the casket to wi itholds. It is true the heart may be of ¢ inside, but it is not the heart which the outside World sees, nor which requires clotaing. It is not necessary that manufacturers should relax their efforts to give us beautiful fabrics, but it is highly necessary that women should make a study of the improvement of the human, and particularly of their own type. A little physiology, a little actual knowledge of the conditions It 15 best to secure, of those tt is essential to avoid, may come in not only as an clement in the preservation of life, but as an important factor in Its enjoyment. SPRING BONNETS. Easter brings out whatever is fresh and spring like in head gear, and to acertain number-ot persons, fashion, like the world itself, is ever new and ever young. The new departure a few years ago in milli- nery, the introduction of picturesque hats and eccentric bonnets seems to have exhausted genius In this direction. We have {teration, but nothing that 1s actually novel, and much ‘that is unseasonable. The gold tissues for crowns, the silk and gold stuffs for trimmings, the gold lace and the long gold ornaments are the new things, but they are not appropriate to the se: son. ‘The gilt of lace and manufactured orn: mentation looks like tinsel on the tender sun- light of May, the brightness of flowery June. One turns with a sense ef weariness from these splendors to simple bunches of cowslips and to Waves of soft white lace in conjunction with roses and jasmine and forget-me-not upon a delicate chip. The shapes are hideous in the hand; it is said they are more becoming on the head. Whether that 1s to be understood as a compliment to the head or the bonnet J have no! cen able to disco- ver. They are not particulsriy new. They really and truly look as if they had heen selected from among the ugliest that have made their ap pearance for the past five years. The bonnets, many of them, are short at the ears, and broad— the * Queen Anne” style. The turban hats are large and full in the crown, also, and perfectly straight and plain around the face. Soft aval crowns of this description are not_ unbecoming, for the edge 1s finished with a border of ruching, of lace, or of feathers, or fringe of beads or Sinall flowers, which is supplemented by the pretty tluffiness of the hair, which must be ar- Tanged to suit the style of the hat or bonnet, and, in fact, is not infrequently changed, since the fascinting “fronts” were invented, from blonde to chestnut, or flaxen to “ Eagilsh brown.” Such crowns are called “costume and can be purchased ready made at 5 to #3 each, the purchaser adding the trlinmings to sult herself, very little being re- quired. Ofcourse, their low price and chieaj ness render them very convenlent and extremely | popular, for at the price ladies can have a hat to match a sult for about four dollars, while the purchase of one or the making of one to order would involve double or treble the expense. ‘The Tuscan straw bonnets, with open “lace” ike brim, is revived after having lain dormant for about'a quarter of a century. In the red ee Which has slezed upon fashion, and wich ‘ry Suggestive of the scarlet Woman, ‘Tus- can 1s Naturally all lined and trimmed with red, and ft has hardly yet been discovered how well ittrims with creamy white or black lace and dalstes. Charming crown bonnets are construc- ted of a foundation irame covered with tulle and small white roses, with a narrow fringe of Ulies of the valley for a border. These are iov 1s for brides, and by far the pretttest things which have made their appearance, OUTSIDE W: The taste which fs not always displayed tn the hew bonnets of the season, seems to have ex- pended itself largely upon the unpromtsiag uls- ter and the pretty designs in spring wraps. The new ulster 1S really a ladies’ garment, elegant, gracetul, yet useful, and with just the sugges: Hon of color about it that give tone and charac- ter If 15 composed of soft mixed or plain cloth in wood tones and shades; has a round hood, which is drawn in and faced upon the inner edge with silk or satin, and a shtrring at the back of the waist which takes in the slight tul- | hess, and below which a belt 1s buttoned or | cord and tassels hang suspended. The sleeves are gathered to form a ruftie at the wrist and | faced upon the inner side to match the hood. and this inner facing ts repeated upon a side pocket which is suspended by cords and tassels, and which holds the handkerchtef. All the pret- tlest_ mixtures in small invisible checks and pale wood tints are found In the cloths of which Uhese ulsters are made, and the silk facing em- ployed, also several Inches deep upon the inner fronts is in poppy red, peacock and gensaarme blue, flesh-colored pink and shades to match. The cost a very moderate Ba ee eon a rment, the average being only twenty dollar: eeanother design. which takes the plave of the ulster for young ladies is the long English coat or “Raglar.” This also ts made In light cloths i like the spring overcoats of gentlemen, and 1s very jaunty as well as decidedly useful. The skirt is open on the back and there are seam3 which attach the skirt to the body and give a perfect Mt to the doubie-breasted front, which 1s open en reverse, and finished with an English collar. There are very real and practical side pockets with flaps, which fasten with a small spring Clasp, so that change, or even the pocket book, Is comparatively secure in them. The small dressy garments take the dolman, visits, or mantle shape; and are of black satin de Lyon, very richly trimined with thick lace ruching and pasSementerie, or there are in light almond Unted armure silks and silk mixed cloths, trim- med with double fringes. The under one in chenille, the tint of the ground of the fabric; the other a tasseled silk fringe in the colors of the silk mixture. These friuges are repeated at the neck, forming a deep collar. And two clusters of satin ribbon bows are added—one at the Unroat and the other at the waist. The light armure silks, satin finished, used for the most elegant wraps, are hardly a feather weight, yet they are ned with marcelline of the shade’ and trimmed with quantities of lovely silk ard che- nilie fringe. The small visites of black satin de Lyon are also very handsome and effective, but Uucy have more Weight and can be utilized. so that they have not the air of exclusive freshness and novelty. Capes bave made thelr appearance also in pleated lace and fine jet fringes upon net, with a border Of fine jet fringe, with very deep silk and jet netted beading. ‘The jackets are in plain or mixed cloths, tailor stitched and finished, but with no contrasts in trimming, and no ornamentation save buttons, which are of horn or peari, shaded in the color of the cloth. GLOVES AND MITTS. Recent developments in fashion have made it impossible to match gloves to costumes as form- erly, at least with any strictness, and so the new spring styles make no effort in that direc- tion, but merely show extraordinary care in the selection of neutral colors and a vast. aggrega. ton of fine shades and tints. The first choice and greatest variety is to be found in the wood Unts, beginning with the light shade of the pin or inside of the wood, and going on through Uunerable gradations until we come to the darkest tan le of resinous bark. The mi- nute shades of difference must be seen to be appreciated, and indeed can only be understood by an educated eye. Browns will also be fash- jorable, and these show an almost infinite va- riety, from the softest leaf shade to the darkest Seal, Grays begin with a delicate shade of drab and go through to dark slate gray. and old-time pee ‘grandmother's shade, which 1s very fash- lonable this season, aye nearly so tig hter wood tin' “bad form” in more senses than one. There 18 really nothing more beautiful in the world than a pert formed hand and PS ee.” | glove can hardly fit smoothly over protuber- ances which, however honorable as evidences of warfare with dally needs, are not aids wo beauty or symmetrical development. But if gloves find an obstacie ia hands which are more useful than ornamental, what shall We Say of mitts, the dainty cobweb nest of Which is almost tnvisible? Such mitts are the fine Maltese, made on the tsland of Malta, and more delicate than Chantilly lace. The fingers engaged in weaving these must be like faries’ Nngers; and, indeed, they are hereditarily adapted to the work Even France cannot compete with Malta in the production of mitts Of such delicate shades of color aud exquisite fineness. Of course they are not intended for out-door Wear, but for the house—for hands that are like lilies, that toll ot, neither spin. Such hands AS poets talk about putting on fevered brows, yet which would inevitably roughen and grow Ted if they had to do duty In a sick room. ‘The cost of the finest of these Maltese mitts is from seven to nine dollars per pair, but there are Chantilly mitts on exhibition at A. T. Stew- art's which cost twenty-four dolla eh pair, although the average range Is like the Mallese. from seven to nine dollars. ‘The tints are so delicate that they look white until you put white beside them, ivory white. Then you see that there are faint tinzes of flesh color, of Prerl, of canary, of pink, and the like. The Chantlliy lace mutts are black. The flimy veil oc the Maltese upon a white and ieweled hand 0: fhe proportions must, howevor, be some- thing to rave about. 1) does not make much difference what people have who Wear “thread” gloves, but in the in- terests of economy one may be permitted to ask why they are all made so long that t half Way up the arm and are a nuisanc the sleeve?

KEYBER CLOTH HANDKERCHIEF DRESSRS. ‘There was an idea in the “bandanna” dresses of last year which has been Curned to account and reappears this year in much finer and more attractive form. Dress patterns are imported in Khyber cloth (a tine, soft, close bunting), which consists of twelve lange handkerchters surrounded by a broad double or treble cluster- ed border. Two of these handkerchiefs laid 10- gether makes stripes for the front and two more are draped at the back; the rest are employed as Nouncing for the walking skirt and as border for the basque, cuffs and collars. The plain shades of the body part of the handkerchiefs are lovely pale blue, ollve, garnet and wood color. The borders are in good taste also; for example, on the blue the border ts | com of clustered cords of black and white. cloth ts the rage this season, and In the white does not at all differ trom the “ga- zeline” of last year, except that it now comes In dress patterns and is accompanied by a border and bands for trimming in Persian colorings. The border is used for tlounces, the bands as trimmings for the basque, and also for length- wise strips or panels. They may be made up also similar to the tlounced barages of tweaty- five years ago, that is without overskirt and With a series of gathered flounces with heading between, and the sicirt, put ona band attache: to a surplice waist. The cloth itself is forty. elght inches wide, and an exceedingly tine, soft, cate and beautiful material tn its best quali? ies, A pecullar application of Khyber cloth has been made for seaside costumes in combination Miih foulard cambric (undressed.)

The wool part 1s olive in “color,and the design for the dress shows the polonaise open in front and drawn away to form along close pantered drapery at the sides and simply draped back. The waist is belted In and the open square at the neck shows the tigured red of the dress beneath. The under- dress, including the skirt is entirely of the cot- ton, abd shows Ted fa front and rotind the bot- tom. ‘The color ts the old-fashioned turkey red and perfectly fast. COTTON SATINE. ‘This material ts certainly one of the triumphs: of cotton manufacture to-day. No satin ts tlner, softer, or made in more delicate tints and color- ing. if it was three dollars per yard instead of fifty cents, it would be considered beautiful be- yond compare. Certainly it is preferable, so far as actual Appearance goes, to the “satin” fou. Jards, which are announced as a feature of the season, but which are too glossy, as well as opaque. to be becoming. Of course,cotton satine is opaque also, but it holds light and shadow better than the shining satin foulards, whose surface is repellant, and the cotton texture ts really softer than the satin, which has a stiff ness Out of harmony with its Arcadian designs and alfresco character. Satin is being run into the ground. There are straw or bralds, and satiu as trimming, or in combination, {s almost universal. ‘This is unfortunate, because satin IS not becoming unless treated by an artist—no fabric can be that has a perfectly smoo h, glossy surface—and it will only take a little while to sicken ladies of It, as they have been before, un- Ul they refuse to look at it or entertain it tn'any shape or form whatever; and the benetit of a rich and beautiful fabric’ ts lost because it has been made too common and universal. It will of unnecessary It ts to be hoped, there- be remembered how difficult {t was to brii satin to the front afew years ago; how many efforts were made, and failed because the preju- dice In the minds of many ladies was so stronz aga‘nst it. This will hardly be belleved, in the 1 of the present furore for satin and satin- finished goods. SATIN ARMURE AND SATIN DE LYON. An unfalling evidence of the decline in pres- tige of any rich fabric is the reproduction of the sume effects in common materials, and tt 1s pretty certain therefore that the days of satin are numbered. Already a more distinguished place has been taken by satin-armure and satin de Lyons, very soft richly flnished fabrics less glossy than satin, but capable of holding and reflecting lights and shadows, and having a slight twill or figure, which gives character to the surface. Plain’satin, particularly white satin, should never be allowed to come next the skin, only the most perfect beauty in the tex- ture and coloring of the skin can stand it, for every thing glances off from it, and it holds up every defect to clear view like a'mirror. A per- fectly plain surface is now not tolerated in any drees materials except wool, and these are com- bined with figured stuffs, or contrasted with borders. Even plain white muslin has given Way to striped. dotted and tigured Suisse, and to what are called “crape” effects in mull. The plain sik muslins are belng rapidly transformed by embroidery, which is executed in colored silks in bands and borders for ru‘iling. EMBROIDERY. The light wood shades used this spring are very eftective for throwing up the colors of em- broidery, and many clever needle women among those not obliged to work for daily bread are | engaged in transterring the sweetness of mea- dow and forest to the fine, soft materials whlch will constitute the groundwork of charming costumes for the present season upon which we are entering. There 1s no end to the possibili- | Ues of embroidery now that light has come to the ald of color, and multipites all its beauties by the action of the myriads of tiny mirrors contained in minute beads of glass. Novel ef- fects are constantly maki ng thelr appearance, end there seems to be no limit to the applica- Uon of the idea or the variety of the desivas, “Rice” beads, white but semt transparent, are a recent development and are used in connec- lion with an embroidery executed in fine braid upon very light and fine cloth wraps in milk ahd pith’ of wood shades. The delicacy and beauty of these exquisite garments it is dimeult to realize from description. House dresses, too, and wrappers afford an almost unbounded field for this sort of decoration, as the materials em- ployed are pariicularly suited to the long, sim- ple, graceful style of ‘Indoor dress, and the se- clusion to which they are devoted admits of the exhibition of every pretty fancy. In what may be called jewelled embroidery, nothimg finer than the introduction of seed Pearls has ever been attained, although the effects of color in the tredescent beads are of course much more briliiant and startling. But quite recentiy Oriental luxury has been Fivalied ih the incrustation upon rich medallions of cameo pearls set ina punctured band of gold which admits of attaching the cameo tirmly to the medallion. These medalilons form the cen- tral figures of broad bands of embroidery which Sweep across Ube front of the dress, and these bandsalso from the top, in fact, the sleeves, un- less elbow sleeves of gold lace are addei. ‘The dress 1s of ivory satin, and excepting the cameos, is all satin and gold.
