Our agent found that in Paris the fvsling is rather toward fancy Hosiery than black; however, this fashion wave bas yet to cross the Atiantic, aud we shail still be HEADQUARTERS for Fast Biack Hosiery. That we show twice the variety of Fancy Hose of any store outside of New York requires but a visit toour much enlarged departwnent to determine.
