. 4 NEW YORK HERA THE FASHIONS. SPRING OPENINGS AND STYLES. What Toilet Worshippers Can See To-Day. Bewildering Varieties and Irresistible Tempta- tions—Laste Predominant and American La- dies Choosing tor Themselves—Fhght of the F.ckle Goddess from Paris to New York—What to Wear and How to Wear It. Opening day in New York among the modistes ip as uncertain and fickle as the deity they worship, Phe greater pumber throw open wheit treasares of fashion to the pubdile to-day and to-morrow, and many others, even among the leading houses, defer the great event until Apr.l. However, from the 20th of March until the 12th of April scarcely a day | & will elapse without a grand opening taking place at some moriste’s establishment. Since the oc- | currence of the sad events im France, ; Which not only detironed the Bonaparte dy- | nasty, but also the empire of fashion, modisies have been at a loss to know where the chameleon goddess would next set up her headquariers, A coloay of Parisian modistes has been temporarily established ut Brussels, waiting, likely, a /avorable opportunity to go back to the once gay capital, now in the hands of the sens cu/ottes and long a stranger to fashion and gayety. Meanwhile a strong move- ment is being made to estaviish here permanently a temple of fashion, trom which American ladies can diciate to tueir sisters across the ocean, Lon- don has alresdy recognized this temple, as the fashion magaz.nes of that metropolis burrow all their plates and styles irom New York, Regarding the origin of PRENCH FASHIONS the following facts will be found interesting:— When Henry LL. of France could Ununé of nothing more amusing than to crimp and scorch his collars or to cur bis wife's and sister’s hair, and when Francis 1. joaded his minions with every luxury that woman could invent, there were no French fashions then. [very country bad a fashion of ita own, and the Burgundians, Lorrainers, Alsatians and Italians were, in turn, modets for couris to iml- tale. Even the Scotch costume gained considerable favor at one time; that was when Mary Queen of Scots appeared in her beauty at the French Galas, dressed in a costume partly Scotch and partly Bur- gundian, THE FIRST FASHION. DICTATORS, Two ladies, however, soon appeared, who raised French fashions to a height prophetic of its later glory. These were the two daughters of Catharine of Médicis, Marguerite, Queen of Navarre, and Eliz- abeth, aiierward the luckless wife of Philip 11, King of Spain—a lady whom Schilier has mmortalized | im his **Don Carios,"” Marguerite, whose imagination seems only second to her beauty, ts satd to nave invented a new costume for eyery entertainment at which she appeared, and it 1s stated that each duferent costume was a perfect wonder for taste and richness; added to this, her own beauty Was so marvellous, Uial Brantome, the fash- iovable chronicier of the time writes, in his exag geraed sivie, that ali the goddesses of Olympus were a5 noting when compared vo her. li soon, thereiore, became the lasiuon for the court ladies Co copy Marguerite as minutely as possibie, both in style and dress, Elizabeth, the second lady above alluded to, was fiso @ lover Of adnuratioa and change.

Libation to the Vernal Equinox. ‘The coming of the vernal equinox has signglized itself this year by its time-honored deluge. On Monday evening, toward sunset, the sky became overcast and a light, low wind lifted the dust. “Rain, heavy rain, to-night, sure,” was the pro- phecy of an old farmer-faced and country-ciad in- dividual in City Hall Vark, as he grasped the wide brim of his nap-covered wide- awake. Night came on and the moment of the equinox approached, but Jupiter Pluvius could not wait. At eight o'clock he whis- pered Aquarius, who nodded his head and sbook his hair. As @ consequence a slight shower sprinkled itself over homeward-bound Gotham, It Was too long to wait until miduight, and about nine o'clock, he, the pluvial Jupiter, opened the flood- gates, and Gotham was drenched to the skin. It 1s fot enough to say that humanity suffered, for the human species “makes a break’? on such occasions for some shelter or other. Man may hide his dimin- ished head, but the work of his genius, in the shape of one and a half brick three story houses cannot. The trees, mournful and dripping, with their naked arms ilited pieadingly to the darkened skies, soughed aud groaned “with the outward melody of au inward agoay.” It was a melancholy sight for the wayfarer as the nigat wore on, The face of ature, swept ever with the frown of @ storm, ferces back the soul on itself in a consciousness of awiul sublimity; but the night-wrapped streets of a sleeping city, desolate of man’s presence, and drowsily listening to the mouruful mouody of the rain drops sirike one With a sense 01 au unuited sad- ness. Yet they were not all bereft of humanity or Whatseemed human, If one could wrap himselfin material tupermeuble to rain and pass along the thoroughfares, he might discern crouched in some haliway, or under the half sheller of a wagon, some wreich whose sense of the wet world without Was iulied in the temporary oblivion of siumber, or Whose bieared eyes gazed stolidjy upon the rain as though he were counting the lagging minutes to the diapson of the storm.

These buildings were in course of erection, were enciosed and nearly completed. They were owned by Mr. W. H.

Tne lecture was deilvered in verse, and was amusing, as well as instructive and interesting, Darwin’s theory of development was presented in 8 ludicrous light, and the audience were asked who should care to preserve the family tree if an ape or a monkey is to be found on every limb? Man was traced from infancy to old age, and his foibles and follies, as well as his grana and noble deeds, por- trayed; but the evidence in every age ts that ‘Men do choose the downward pathway broad, ‘And make mammon and pleasure their God.

Lecture at St. Josepl’s Romana Catholic Charch by the Rev. Father Woods, A Lenten service was held last evening at St. Joseph's Roman Catholic church, which was attended by a large congregation. The altar was lighted up with many tapers, and though the ceremonies were simple they were very tmpressive, The pulpit was placed in front of the sanctuary, and from there the Rey. Father Clancey recited the Rosary, the re- sponses being given by the congregation. The Ro- sary concluded, the Key. Father Woods, of Morri nia, ascended the pulpit and preached an eloquent discourse, taking as his text the beautilul story of the prodigal son. The preacher told the parable in his own language, which was an elabora- tion of the Gospel, aud then proceeded to draw the usual infereuces. The merciful reception of the son by the father Was likened to the merciful man- ner im Which God receives tue supplicattons oi the unfortunate sinner, who, having been wandering away from the sok of virtue and plunged in the abyssses of a life of wickedness, grows weary of the baneiul associations and penitently returns fo the good ways of his early life, ‘The Lenten season was especially the time for & return to God, ana the preacher urged that to every one present God was then giving an especial call, Aiter the lecture bencdiction of the Biessed Savramant was givea by the Rev.

AUTHENTIC REVELATION Petition of the Imprisoned Army in Germany. NAPOLEON'S STATE OF HEALTH. WILUELMSHOHE, Feb. 28, 1871, Nearly four months have gone by since I arrived at this out-of-the-way place for the purpose of keep- ing you posted on all aud everything connected with the imperial prisoner, the ex-mouarch of France, without whose presence here the castle and en- virons of WilhelmshUhe would not have ranked higher in importance than any country crossroad out in the West. When early in November yoor correspondent commenced the task assigned to hun by interviewing bis Majesty, questioning and cross. examining him on matters which have not failed to interest the American, and in their turn even the people of the Continent, he barely supposed that it Would become his duty to breathe ‘or Jour long months not only the Siberian atmosphere that has prevailed in this elevated region, but also the pecu- liar atmosphere of intensely pro-Napoleonic senti- ment which naturally pervaded the small circle gatnered around the imperial exile, and which ever and anon was changed by departure or fresh arri- vals of adherents of the cause. In constant imer- course With parties of such decided trains of thought and action it cannot be wondered at that 1 soon felt my own senuments leaning in the same direc- tion as theirs, and that the strong arguments with which they pleaded the cause of the dethroned dynasty gained more and more upon me. But While I took care in my reports to you to abstain as much as possible from reflections and opinions of my own I deemed it my duty to the New York HERALD to fuithtully chronicle all the emanations, one-sided as they were, of the Emperor himself and of his retinue. And if I add that all of them are gentlemen in the true sense of the word, that most Of them have served the state and their imperial master for periods not less than fiftcen and often more than twenty-five years, which at the same time speaks volumes for the sterling social qualities of the Emperor, 1 deiy any one to live and associate for a length of time with such parties, treat ana be treated by tnem with the utmost civ.lity and cordi- ality, without becoming imbued more or less with their spirit and interests. Waile but two months ago these latter presented an aspect not void of fair hopes for the future, they have since then been gradually drooping, and 16 may Dow appear to many tuat the drama 1s nearing its end and chat THE CURTAIN 15 ABOUT TO FALL.

Undoubiediy this renewed battie of Napoleon Ill. for the throne of France will be the subject of valuable study to the future statesman, philosopher and historian. lam now speaking, as you perceive, in that train of thought which is uppermost in the minds of those under the roof of yon castle, with its snow-covered turrets, and only a few steps distant ‘rom my lonely hotel quarters. I said that Napoleon will loudiy declare the nature of the tactics and the cuaracter of the arms to be em- ployed by him. They may have been reveaied in part by hls late proclamation, but 1 am enabied to add a comment which is as authentic as if it had fallen trom his Majesty's own lips directly aud been committed to paper by me fer the benefit of the New YoRE HERALD readers.

The Pope, from his throne, replied to the address, read by Signor 4. Rubbianl, expressing “hisemvtion” at the Bolognese demonstration, and observing that “God Irequently permitted scandals that good might result.’? he appiauded the “Catholic ten~ dencies of youth im Italy, youth being the most active element in revolutions. He expected that the example of Bologua would exercise a great influence over the cities of Romagna and lead them to a Catholic revival.’ Finally, “He biessed all present and all who had signed the address, call- ing the catalogue of signatures a ‘very voluminous index of good Catholics.’ His Holiness then allowea the several members of the deputation to pay their personal respects, and imyited them toaccompany him in his accustomed walk in the Vatican garden, The address, with the annexed 32,000 signatures, were bound in three thick volumes, in red leather, stamped with the arms of Pius LX. and of the city of Bologna, with the inscription, “Pio 1X., Bonoma Fidelis.” The usual pecuniary accompaniment for the obolus of St. Peter was contained in a velvet purse embroidered with gold and with gold clasps, on which were engraved the arms of Bologna under the banner of the Holy Charch, Among the Bologuese depuues present were the Marcheso Marsigil, Prince Ereoluni, Marches al- fonso and Francesco Campe.gi Marchese Gulaottl, Count Kanuzzi, Doctors Bagni and Garoini, ReLIGIOUS FEALTY.
