The Princesse Dress in the Ascendant Moulded Watst—A Dataty | ‘Trousseau—Lace as a Garniture— Study in White and Biae Novel- | ues. | [From Our Own Correspondent } | New York, April29. | ‘Now that the “openings” and ‘‘ Easter,” and | other events which are supposed to exercise an | occult mfluence on the dress of women are | among the things of the past, fashtons for a time may be considered to be decided, if any decision could be arrived at in regard to a mat- | ter governed by no laws, and subje2t to every breath of change from over the land or across | the sea, sothat winds and waves cannot bo more uncertain—nor, for that matter, more cer- tain to work within allotted limits. Thore is ; no revolution to chronicle this season, and lit- ue of novelty — in detatis. On the whole, in the absence of the brick red and brigut yel- jow, the “Madras” colors as they were cailed, | which h proved 80 startling last season, the gen- | eral effect 1s less showy, more quatnt aad re- fined than twelve months ago. Nor have we returned to the bustle and hooped skirt abomi- nations, With sem{-annual alarity an- nouncements are made as feelers, stating authoritatively that bunched up drapery ha3 been reinstated, and that bustles and hooped skirts are imminent. Such paragraphs are of course written in the interests of the hooped skirt and bustle trade which has never been quite defunct, but at present there 1s no trath in them. The skirts are straight a3 ever, and the one principle which Mr. Charles sianc enunciated the French dress makers seem de- termined to adhere to, and that is not to ai- mitadesigh that does not mould the waist perfectly. All dresses and costumes, whether simple or elaborate, carry out this tdea, whether expressed in the pure princes3e form, the jue and skirt, or the princesse back with belted front. In all these designs a smooth outline is preserved over the hips, and if thereis any drapery itis arranged below this line. The boom” in bustles is very much like the boom in some other things—it has not taken place. If women are to credited with anything in the way of common sense or or progressive ideas, it never wil ‘The short dress 1s almost universal for sum- mer wear, quite excepting among a class of dig- unified married and unmarried ladies of a cer- tain age who consider a tratn necessary to their [aber and a few others who insult summer | y trailing over it the relics of their last win- ter’s gas-tainted finery. The fresh new dresses are nearly all short, and much prettier and more summery looking in consequence. It has always been asserted, and the declaration hag been accepted as fact by many people, that tournures and trimming and drapery were an essential part of the short dress, that the long dress couid be mada plain and graceful, but the short dress must be trimmed and draped and bunched and extended. Buta famous Ameri- can sald the way to do a thing was to do it; and it 1g so with the short plain skirt; it 13 dong; it ig worn, and instead of common looks quaint and picturesque, In these Co tes in fact, plainness of itself is Yery apt fo look distinguished. Cultivated taste more and more seeks to express itselt in that which is rich, solid and true in material and plain indesign. Elaboration and display are becoming more and more the badge of ‘the cheap and tawdry. A FINE TROUSSEAU. A glimpse was obtained the other day of part of an elegant trousseau during tho process of making. The feature of it was its excessive, What was called its ‘* baby,” fineness and neat- ness. All the articles were hand made, ani the embroidery, the lace, the stitching and the tucking were a marvel of datntiness, yet not all flimsy or wanting in durability. Two dressing-room wrappers were of fine ‘ cash- mere,” what 1s called “baby” cashmere; one was cream white, the other primrose pink. Both were hand embroidered entirely down both sides of the front, round the bottom and upon the edge of the sleeves. The front was Ued together with satin ribbons placed at In- tervals, Breakfast wrappers or ‘*matinees” of pink and white foulard and rosebud foulard were very «ilfferent in appearance. Taey were almost shapeless, with “mandarin” sleeves, and three rows deep of white lace rufling down. the front, round the bottom, upon tne siesves, and forming 4 deep round collar. A quaint short dress was of black satfn and black surah silk. The skirt was of satin aad perfectly plain with the exception of three rows of black and white Spanish lace rufillng. ‘The overdress was of the surah, and was shirred upon the back, upon the shoulders and in front, where it was brought down to a point. ‘The lace upon this was put on in a double rut- fle, with a ruched heading, and in cascades down the front. i ‘The fronts of the night dresses consisted of alternate rows of tucking and beautiful em- broidery; or of tucked linen cambric and real vallenciennes in a leaf pattern. Round the neck and down the front of these latter the ; lace was gathered into full shells, which form3d i a@soft cascade. The flannel skirts were em- | broidered in sprays filled in with dois, and there were six sets of surah silk underwear in different Unts—lemon, pale blue, pink, helio- trope, ivory and cream—all of which were trimmed with real valenciennes in new and charming leat and feather patterns. ‘The amount of lace used in the trousseau was extraordinary, and it wasallreal. Tnere were no imitations. Of course all the trimming laces used upon dresses and garments were not round point or even “duchesse,” but they were real Bréton or Languedoc, or fine torchon, but no cotton imitations of Mechlin, or point, or Bréton, or others. There were several lovely fichus, hoods, capes and mantels of white or black Spanish lace, which 13 not in reality Spanish, but made in Normandy. Some were athered up full on the shoulder, tn the Mother lubbard style. Others were tied in front and gathered at the back, the neck being finished With full rufiies, and falling loops of lace or satin ribbon. Hoods and capes were tied at the threat with satin ribbons and one of white | Spanish lace was lined with a delicate shade of | heliotrope satin. ‘The hostery was all in solid colors or tints in silk or isle threads—some very finely open | worked and embroidered, but none with laca | insertions or mixed colors. The handkerchiefs, too, for day wear were of the finest, but they had solid borders of garnet, cor, ‘old blue, olive, beige and oldgold. The more expensive were of silky linen cambric exquisitely em- breidered. There were no lace, and, indeed, these are very seldom bought, so many usually come in the gifts made to a bride. ORDINARY OUTFITS, A trousseau of this description, made with care and showing in every detail such refine- ment of taste, is more rare nowadays than formerly. Thirty years ago all fine underwear was hand-made, and mothers superintended tho preparation of their daughters’ bridal outfits, it they did not assist in doing the sewing. Every article in those days, and still more strictly in the years of the half century that preceded these, was arranged and la\d away with loving care until all were completed: and the tender- ness and motherhood thus inwrouzht were a talisman, a and a benediction for tha years to come. That was a worthy outcome of abundant means, of delicate tastes, of retined babits; but what does wealth and what we call “luxury” do now? It takes twice, thrice, five times the amount of money, and goes to one of the mammoth ladies’ furnishing establishments and buys a quantity of ready-mada ments, ehowlly trimmed with cheap lace and embroidery. te-be is delighted. She has wanted jest such Shing for years. Som2 of er friends have them, and there's s0 much Jace and ruftling everywhere, and they are so “cbeap” that she wonders, and so does her {dio and foolish mother, how any woman cao ba so “silly” as to take the trouble to make or have underwear made nowadays. Butit is not too much to say that the hundred dollars worth of cheap trashy cotton and cotton lace lay at the foundation of many wrecked lives. They are worthless for wear, €3} ly when subjected to the ave household and laundry washing, and have to be replaced out of asmall salary or the income of aman perhaps struggling to establish himself in business. The glamour has all been taken Months is loud in gar. plenty of | The _bride- ad seemed spensable to her happl- ness, but she does not know, or has not the habit of doing any better, for she goea on ¢om- mitting to the extent of the means she can con- tol the same folly over and over again, Brides formerly had few personai demands to make during the first year at least of married . any years in those directions ee oe e an lon of the mother. In fact there are 14 ladles sul living whose linen outfits, hand- seryod them for the frst uarter ot a comeuty of mairied life, and in in the family as relics to (nis day, sources of pride and pleasure. interim’ of Test from that responsibily afforded a chance to work into coi in maby other ways, and Was of additional value in holding a perpetual lesson of neatness, thrift, conscientiousness apd care in details, for it that eats the heart out of our homes. THE DRESS MUDDLE. ‘There was a time when sanguine women believed in a millenium of dress as well as one from the point of view of the political economist, but those of them who bestow any Sate on the matter have long ago given up eee eee ore resen' Gividual and the industrial ft Face, which bears Rhys it chai | looked down on self- ex- isting mode, yet is ladependent of it and more accordance with general requirements and instincts. The cultivated classes among women are working this out for them. selves very successfully. It is not a cultivated class, though it may be a moneyed class, wa array themselves in beaded costumes and the. atrical looking bonnets for the street, who wear half-long and half-bare arms cov- ered with bangles upon the sldewalks, who make ee oe = Per cand eee ee ing scar] 8 edged ruffies upon their skirts, and make no preteace of conceal- — mount of paint and powder upon the ekin by covering with a narrow strip of Diack and white dotted vel'ing. Is this attire suited toa modest woman? Does it not prejudice her in the eyes of all men. : Walking up Broadway on a bright afternoon recently it was sickening to see the numbers of young girls and comparatively young women Well-led, over. lounging, sauntering, without an ees object or purpose, and with an insolent ee ot manner that ustry a3 something infinitely below then. It is these that keep tne ranks of wretched women thrown upon the world without resources, and without the means of helping themselves, always full. It is in) ble to blame men for putting a low estimate upon women so long as any consider- able number of women justify it in this way, or Permit themselves to be so misrepresented. A walk down Broadway in the morning doas not thus offend one’s sense of the divine har- mony and fitness of things. The women upon the street are quietly and sensloly dressed. They walk steadily, as if with a purpose. Their dark hats and jackets are no more conspicuous than those of.men, and their very appearance announces that their expedition has a purpose and means “business.” If exercise 13 to be taken there are other ways of obtaining {t than to dress in questionable tastes, In an exagzer- ated manner, and saunter up and down a Dusi- ness thoroughfare at the time of the day when gases are returning to thetr homes, and ‘or no other apparent purpose than to be’ met m. by the A STUDY IN BLUE AND WAITE. Happening in recently at a very fashionable establishment I was invited by a gentleman in authority to take the elevator to an upper story fo see some dresees that had been prepared for Newport and were about to be sent off. Pass- ing through a long apartment, between rows of lay figures, we entered a room that at first sight lar Bluebeard’s chamber. Groups of apparently headless stood motioniess, covered entirely with slips of white or pale blue cambric. The first appearance, coming from the rainbow hues of outside, was ghostly, but there was nothing awful or mysterious about them in reality. The removal of the slips disclosed a dozen or more summer dresses, ex- qguisite in their freshness, and numerous other articles ordered for the completion of special tollets or the general wardrobe. The dresses Were short without an exception, and nearly all made of light, thin materials, thin wool predom- inating, and usually over or in conjunction with sik or satin. trimmed with a great deal of white. | lace. The majority were whole dresses—that is, cut in princesse style—the waist and hips well defined, the drapery arranged in folds or scarfs, and the trimming 1n very fine knife- Pleatings, frequently supplemented with scant, Tuflles of wide white lace. One of the most charming dresses was of nun’s Yelling, With pleatings of the same and addl- tonal ruffles of fine Bréton lace, which was ar- Tanged in large irregular pleated shell-like forms upon the drapery at the back. In tho wide satin belt wasa bunch of wonderfully naturally provence roses, and cream satin rib- bon was used as garniture in conjunction with the lace, A hatof leghorn straw, with fancy brim turned over, rather than bent’ down from the large crown, and ornamented interlorly with ashirring of mull,a wreath of lililes of the valley, and exteriorly with white ostrich feathers and a large cream satia bow, was the accompaniment of this dress, A Watteau gown of chintz foulard was placed over a white satin petticoat with a pleated edge, and exhibited not Qnly full pleatings of lace round the neck (which werejturned over flat,) but a jabot extending en- rely down the front and arufie around the bot- tom. A pretty dress was of pale robin’s egg blue Satin, trimmed with white ivory silk muslin embroidered with the same shad@ as the dreas in floselle. Another was of soft pink Surah Satin draped with a crépe tissue, the silk em- broldery veined and outlined with silver, A small bonnet was of this same pink crépe; the crown embroidered, the front a mass of pink tinted hedge blossoms, A Mother Hubbard cloak of black damasse Was very handsome. it was shirrad at the Waist behind as well as at the neck and tied on with a ribbon. The sleeves were the old “bishop” and a triple ruching of black lace ex- tended entirely around it. Among the oddities was a tea-gown of Orien'al foulara with mandarin sleeves and three rows of cream lace forming a deep collar. There was a jabot of lace down the frent. A pretty novelty tor summer morning wear consisted of a blouse walst of white embroid- ered muslin with full sleeves to the wrist, and tor wear over It a deep cut-away jacket of dark olive sil plush made with caps Tor the sleeves or small epaulettes in fact, which served as a mounting to the muslin sleeves and increased the apparent height of the shoulder. The jacket formed a smali perfectly fittiag coat at the back and could be worn either with an olive a Gets oe onrming pian white muslin with embrolde! Tu for trimming, both being furnished. me SPRING NOVELTIES, Perhaps there's nothing quite so. pretty and effective in the new working materials as the cotton satines. They have been mentioned before as showing very graceful patterns on Plain dark grounds, but each new installment Seems to be prettier than the last. The tlower patterns, shaded, or rather tinted, in white and pale gold, with pink flushes, or cream shading into yellow and brown, are works of art, Four later designs show gold and bronze figurea on cream and ivory grounds, and remarkable effects In Japanese designs, which quite cover ‘the surface and blend picturesque eiements in asort of harmony. There is lea, built upon newspaper paragraphs, that Easter is interesting principally on account of its new bonnets and the appearance of spring tollettes. In reality, 80 far as drees upon the street and in public 1s concerned, it is the most unattractive of seasons, for winter clothing begins to look Shabby, and few are prepared with their sprin; changes, even if the weather permitted, whic! it rarely does. This year Easter was ex- ceptionally fine and farm, yet mew bon- nets and spring toilets were very few and far | between. ‘There were a few, however; among them a walking dress of dark olive brocade, the front shirred and draped, the back plain’ but Jaid in tbick plaits, the coat basque shirred in font and finished with a rolling collar of sat inside of which was a standing chemisette of duchesse lace. The ornaments were buttons and half moons of steel and gold. A handsome dress of black damasse was ac- companied by a small Mother Hubbard visite of black satin Surah trimmed with black lace and beaded fringe. It was unlined and very soft and gracetuL The bonnet was a fancy straw Uned with gold-colored silk and trimmed with violets and buttercups; the tie a Dlack- lace barbe over white.

Last year might have taught a lesson in Tegard to these indispensible adjuncts to a summer outfit. Whether it did or not time willshow. The styles put upon the market were, many of them, characterized by an utter want of taste and fitness. but they were of kind that shock, when the temporary ‘gla- mour has passed away an become worthless.

But all coi- cred borders and flowered silks and stripes and blocks should be ignored, for they are ouly suitable as a match for costumes, and if they do not match them they look out of place and vulgarize the whole toilet. Fashionable women chocse solid colors, sometimes red, but they only carry such a parasol in the park, at the races or In the country—and they usually pos- fess half a dozen, two of which probably are biack. .Pongees are useful, but they soil easily, and care must be taken in using them. JENNY JUNE. SKELETONS OF TWO FAMOUS HORSES ‘“*Lexington” and “Old Henry Clay”°—An Interesting Feature of the National Museum, A bumber of years ago, Mr. Alexander, of Kentucky, presented to the National Museum at Washington, the skeleton of the famous Tace horse Lexington, which was considered 4n illustration of the highest type of the run- Bing horse bred in America. The interest taken in this specimen, and the frequent refer- €nces to it by the breeders of fine horses, has Suggested the idea of adding other Illustrations of the asteology of the finer breeds of American horses, and in pursuance thereof the skeleton oz “Old Henry Clay” has just reached Wash- ington, having been presented to the National ‘Museum by the Hon. Erastus Corning and Mr. Henry C. Jewett. The animal was mounted by Prof. Ward, at the expense of those gentlemen and delivered by them, free of charge, to the National Museum. ‘The stallion Henry Clay combined In a re- markable degree the points of his Arab and Messenger ancestry, and was born on Long Island, and when young purchased by Col, William H. Wadsworth, of Geneseo, at the price of one dollar per pound, live weight. After Col, Wadsworth’s death the animal was gold into Yates county, N. Y., but the farmers of Livingston county, feeling their loss, repur- chased and kept him for service in the thres counties of Iivingston, Ontario and Monroe until he reached an advanced age. He was then taken by a company of farmers in Seneca county, who hoped still to use him as a breeder; Lee after two seasons he dled, in the spring of 1867. It was not until after his death that his value was fully understood, as being the base of all the best and most reliable trotting horses. Ap- preciating this fact, Mr. Erastus Corning, of Albany, procured the stallion ‘‘Harry Clay,” a reat-grandson of “Old Henry Clay,” and Mr. Henry C. Jewett, of Buffalo, his fellow-con- tributor of the specimen, also secured all the horses he could find of this blood. Ex-Gov. Leland Stanford, of California, als> had one; Mr. de Forrest, of New York, one; Col. H. £, Russell, of Massachusetts, one; and one was possession of Gen. E. 8. Beale, on his farm near Washington. It was @ serious question whether a skeleton which had been buried for fourtee.. years could be utilized as a 9] en for es hibition; but under the direction of Mr. K. Huntington, as- sisted by Mr. Henry Peterson, of L’ the bones were disinterred and found by Prof. Ward and his assistant, Prof. Lucas, in acon- dition of fineness of structure, such as occurs only in the highest type of a horse, every bone and joint being entirely free from any blemish. One of the ribs on the right side had been clo completely in two, but perfectly re- united. The public spirit ot Messrs. Corniog and Jewett in presenting the skeleton of this famous horse to the National Museum is much to be commended and worthy of imitation, A TERRIBLE FATE. A_ Hoy Dying in Convulsions Eight mente After Being Bitten by a Oz. Lawrence Lels, jr., a lad of twelve, dled in New Brunswick yesterday morning of hydro- phobia, resulting from a dog's bite. In August last a large hound started down Remsen s! where Leis lived, pursued by a crowd of boys who had been irritating the dog. As the hound passed Leis the boy lifted a stone and threw it at him,whereupon the dog sprang upon the boy and bit him twice in the lett ‘anapie badly lacerating the arm and preast. The dog was chased aroynd town until he sp! into the canaland was drowned. Young Leis’ wounds Were cauterized, and soon healed. He didn’t feel any after effects of the bite until last Tues- day night. Then his father sent for Dr. T. A. Skillman, as the boy was restless and watch- ful. That day he had been struck by a farge stone in the right armpit, directly Ten the Place where he had been bitten, an father attributed the uneasiness to this blow. Dr. Skillman found the boy sitting up 1n bed, his eyes apparently fixed upon some distant ob- ject. The ee knew nothing of the bite, ut soon the symptoms of hydrophobia were unmistakable. On Wednesday afternoon Lets ‘was better, but In the night he had spasms and SEapped at everything near him. Yesterday Torning he died in convulsions. Young Leis Was an only son. He was well formed, muscu- ler and ruddy complexioned. This 1s the first case of ip eters in New Brunswick in many years.—Philadelphia Telegraph, Ath. Who Should Row First? Who should bow first? Some authorities in- sist that a gentleman should not bow toa lady until she bows to him; the author of the “American Code of Manners” says that this is all wrong: “A gentleman should always bow first to a lady, no matter whether she returns it or not; if he sees by her face that she does not ‘wish to return it he can refratn from bowing the next Ume!” This is on the ground that “a lady, particularly an elderly one or a society leader, perhaps, has so maby acquaintances that she does ‘not re- member all the young men who have been pre- sented.” This, however, does not seem to set- Ue the question conclusively, for it may b2 that the young man has quite as many acquaint- ances as the lady, even if an ciderly one. He may himself, too, very likely be a society Jeader; in fact, a very 1arge number of the leaders of society at the present time are of what would have been considered fifty years ago @ comparatively immature age. Our own opinion is, and {t has been arrived at after long Teflection, that both persons should bow simul- taneously; perhaps in the case of very near- sighted persons a little latitude might be given, providing the fact of myopia can be clearly proved by medical evidence. There ts, how- ever, always danger in these exceptions to 80- c'al rales, and therefore it may be safer for near-sighted persons to bow in doubt, accustoming themselves to do this with uniform courtesy whether they are themselves recognized or not.—7he Nation.

THE LAW IN THE CaSE—WaHaT THe breretct AUTHORITIES ARE DOING AND WHAT THRY Pao- POSE TO DO. The bills for unpald taxes on several charch Parsonages in the District are now being made out by the District collector, with the view of having thetax books cleared of these encum. brances, which year after year go to swell the delinquent tax lists and have to be regarded in the aggregate as a valuabie asset in annual re- Ports. In the recent carefully the treasurer belonging to the several ch occupied by ‘the pastors, and It ts found that a amount of uppaid taxes for stands cha’ charged at claimed for them that they are built or pur- sary appendage, and that what: wocld ober sary appendage, what would other- wise bea rental ig reckoned as a part of the paster’s salary. The co! of 1860 made their exemption taxes, but “houses of public worship” are excepted. The assessors under that law have put a liberal construction upon it by including the ground and other buildings than the church in the exempted list. In some cases the parsonage building, but not the ground, was assessed during the time from 1560 to 1870, and in most cases there was aD assessment made, Dut not carried out on the tax books. The act of Con- gress of 17th of June, 1570, provides that “all churches, school houses and all buildings, grounds ‘and p appurtenant there o, and used in connection therewith, shall be ex we from all taxes, national or municipal.” Under this law some parsonages were marked on the tax books “exempt,” and some “tax- able.” The law of 1si4 made no exemptton, even as to churches, but caused all this pro. perty to be put on the tax books and, under that and subsequent lat the assessor says, parronages are clearly t le, and he recom- mended in his report that authority be obtained to settle all these taxes by ———— and stated that it would be just that all such delinquent taxes be remtt- ted prior to 1875, as a compulsory payment of all the taxes charged would. in effect, De a con- fiscation of the full value of the property. He also recommended that a law be passed includ- ing parsonages by name in the exemptions. This recommendation resuited in the passage of the act of March 3, 1Ssl, relieving tae churches and orphan asylums of the District and to clear the titie of the trustees of such Property predicated on the payment on or be- fore the ist October, 1551, of all taxes and as- Sessments levied since the ist day of July, 18:4, upon church property used for parsonage pur- poses in the District of ColumUia, and tha: all Taxes and assessments levied upon sald prop- erty prior to July, 1814, together with ail pen- alties, costs and interest accrued thereon, shall be, and are, remitted and released. It is under this law that the tax bills are now being sent out. The amount of delinquent taxes accrued prior to 1874, and therefore exempt u: provisions of the act of 1SS1, was $5.5 the amount accrued since 1574 is $14,304 79. It is the intention of the Commissioners to have the tax books cleared of this class of assets under the present law, So advatageous to the churches indebted. District Government Affairs.

IMPROVEMENTS OF ALLEYS. Frequent applications are made to the Dis- trict Commissioners to have the alleys in the District paved and improved, and the invari- able reply to such applicants 1s that there is no appropriation for the improvement of alleys. The Commisetoners, however, staie that they have a large quantity of materialon hand in the way of paving stones which they will issue to parties who desire to make such improve- ments, thus paying only for the actul labor performed, sald improvements to be done to he satisfaction of the engineer di nt.
