Lace, New and Old, tLondon Newa.J The decadence cf taste. so far as lace ts con- cerned, affords a curious chapter 1a the records of degeneration. It is easily traced; far lace, Properly so called—that 13 to say, in which groundwork and flowers are equally made by needie or bobbin—is comparatively a new thing. Those industrious antiquaries who can- not do without theGreeks and the Romans, may rave of “woven air” and ‘Coan robes,” but these were probably only the musilas of Dacca, or its predecessor; and the needlework Of the Bible seems to have been emorotdery. Lace may have been represented in Rome by ‘cutapd drawa work,” which seems to have been of great antiquity, and certataly neralded the advent of lace in the modern world. This “cut work,” in which a design is made by draw- ing out some of the threads of a material al ready woven, Is. however, quite distinct from the genuine needle point lace, which ts entirely made by the needle according to a desiga pre- viously drawn upon parchment. The concur- Tent testimony of portraits and pattern books points to the sixteenth century as that of the invention and progress of lace, and to the ev- epteen th as that of perfect fruition. What is absurdly called “Gothic” lace Is the Product of the ruff and farthiugale period. and 1s the Cider pune tagliato, whlen preced2d the puxio tagliato a foguami, called also bone- Jace, Lone-polnt, Spanish iace, and go forth, bus Which Is réaliy Italian, and composed of yreat flowers made in “‘battonhole stiten,” and then inked together with brides, as they were called, Or connecting pieces cf lighter work, which eid the massive flowers together, Venice n came ab important center of lace-makiog, and the best of tho beautiful “rose,” or rataer “raised,” polut was made there. The perisd duripg which this nobiy tace prevailed was short. In Vangyke'’s pletures the punio tig- Uato occurs as often as the “ros” point, which fs many degrees more beautiful, and by Knelier’s time both were quite old-fashioned. By swift transition the great, heavy flowers became smaller, flit- ter and lighter, and the reseau, or “body” of the lace, grew out of the brides, or cophecting links, and acquired an impor- tance of its 0) Venice point completely changed tts cl ter in the reigns of Louts XI. “and 16: IV, Insiead of a massive, richly modelied fabric, depending in some Mmeasule for its full display on the sartace over which it was spread, it became an independent and extremely beautiful material, quite apart from any backing of velvet. It was the manu- facture of this lighter kind of Ventce point that Colbert introduced at Alencon and which spread thence to entan. It is the laze which served and still serves asa model for What is now popularly known as “real” Brus- sels polnt, and more technically as point yaz. ‘The body ts beautifully delicate, and the flowers are daintily outlined and superbly worked. From this, perhaps, with “rose” point, the highest expression of lace work, a rapid decline was brought by bobbin cr pillow luce, which, preity as it 1s, was at first merely a cheap imitation of the more costly pretie pont, and in its best period lacked the beautlful precision of the elder art, By cegrees taste, probably influenced by price, veered round in favorof bobbin lace. The older needie-point was pronounced stiff and heavy, and the aerlal productions of Fianders proper and French Fianders, the fabrics of Mechiin and Valenctennes, usurped the place of those of Venice and Alencon. It was ne longer the design and its execution which made tae value of lace work. On Ube contrary, the body or reseau might be said to have eaten up the design almost completely, or reduced it to a mere edging or a scattering of peti(s pois. To ese base uses fell lace during the Telgn of Louis XVL, whose wife may be said to have set thevfashion for the simpler, gauzier kinds of laces, “frilled” and *quilied” into a Cloudlike addition to the totlet. possession her collection of every style and perlod must have been as vast as the Industry of Mary Queen of Scots in working samplers and pin-cushions.

Holcrott, the ex-jockey, and author of the “Road to Ruin,” was horrifled at this practice, albeit there is no doubt that the lady who received him “u to her chin in water” was sultably envel- oped in point lace. The golden days of lace, when the trimmings of ihe Dowager Duchesse Ge la Ferte’s couch were “worth 40,000 crowns,” and £5,000 was paid for a bride’s outfit ia the matter of lace, were over; but the degradation to the machine level was not yet consummated. It was the ease with which Mechiin lace could be machine- made that threw lace out of fashion, despite the efforts of the First Napoleon to sus— {ain the Brussels work.

[Somerset Special ] A sight s0 strange that it would pay Strangers to come miles to see, occurs every night five miles south of this placa, oa the Cedar Bluffs of the Cumberland river. Every evening, Just about sundown, the sky is darkened as far as the eye can see by great flocks of birds coming to roost in these cedars. ‘Your correspondent, accompanied by a native aud a lantern, spent a couple of hours last rag among the cedars, watching this wonder- ful congregation of birds of every tongue, plumage, aud almost every country this side o: the tropics, Startled by our approach, great crowds of the chattering tribe would rise from. their perches in the cedars and fly off with a noige like deep and distant thunder. We had toscream at the top of our voice to hear ono another ak. limbs of the trees were ‘broken off, caused by the accumulated weight of birds, Hundreds, bitnded by our lanteros, would into our faces. We could pick thousands of them from the branches of the trees, But what seemed so strange avout this bird convention was the seeming and har- Tony that existed between the birds. The hawk and dove roosted in peace on the same branch, while hundreds of robins and sparrows circled in perfect safety around the perch of large owls. In the early morning, when thesa fopgsters of the groves left their perches in the cedars for the fields of the open country, 1t Was & most beautiful and gorgeous sight ‘to behold. With the blue of the jay, the crimson and red of the fence wren and red bird, the yellow and gray of the yellow and sparrow birds seem¢ like some grand and splendid panorama of the foral kingdom endowed with the power of music moving through the airin Senet Gol ey eS es colors of the ple go every at Wo see this atrange wonder, ae Vauity Fair. “Scratch a Russian, and you will fad a Tartar,” sald Bonaparte.
