PARIS FASHIONS.

Thiers. Pants, Inty 31, 1871. The usual season for the display of new summer x passed over before any such light mat- fashions could be entertained tn Paris, the tu point of cnt and material, differs very silgh! m that adopted in the ‘advay spring of 18T¢, Fall styles are, however, tn prepara: toa, and theagh it may be somewhat premature to describe then, your readers shall here be made acqnainted with what has so far been disclose 1 be. hind the scenes, A few lines must neyeribeless bo consecrated to present adurnments, for though cos. tunes offer nothin very new as regards tivsue and @hape, some mngeruity is shown in varying the lengin, width and trimming of t oles, Admit. ting that such aresses may be ashioned” and ‘only temporary,” ome say with an unbecoming Meer, tt 1s no argument agatust their vogue.

Black crOpe de chine over black cashmere, with deep cluny lace frills, afford more elegant changes in this most useful and becoming siyle. VERY STYLISH COSTUMES gre the lighter ones; for Instance, unbleached Imen or tawn bodices and upper skirts, Worn over maroon and black silk petticoats. The latter are preferred, ‘With a deep plissé founce. Many of these summer toilets are mace with a sieeveless bodice, the ma- Toon, black or blue suk coat sleeve, like (he under petticoat, appearing more suitable. Bows on the waisi behind are made to correspond, TUR S9-CALLED TRANSPARENTS are very pretiy for the young: also for the elderly, if some discernment is shown in the selection of Material and color. <A transparent is a loose Jacket and overskirt of white spotted net, having a Dine, maize, lemon or purple lining of silk to cor- Teapond with the uader petticoat, When the latter 48 not of poult or tafeta a muslin is employed, with. frliis of the same headed each by @ honilionné, in ‘which a colored riboa is ran. The whole is trim- med with narrow lace edging. Pagoda sieeves and sleeves with a flonnce are aa- visable for all light matertals, such as gauze, or- ante or net. These bright toilets are on!y seen by Mashes, as their wearers drive on a day's visit to town for the purpose of seeing the ruins. They are evidently ashamed of their prettiness in the contem- Plation of the distress prevailing round these sights m broad daylight.

T, Stillman, is to appear on the 15th of September. Miss C. RosssTTI has in press a new nursery rhyme book, under the title of “Sing Song,” which will be pubitshed simultaneously both in England and America. MR. LAWRENCE OLIPHANT DENIES that he is the author of that remarkabie book, “The Coming Race,” or in any way responstble for the very pecu- liar Views which it contains, THE ATHEN ZUM, IN REVIEWING Vol. 2 of Masson’s “Life of Mi'ton,”? which covers five years only of the Poct’s lie, s.y8 that at this rate we may expect about six volumes more before the whole is com- plete. TICKNOR’s “HISTORY OF SPANISH LITERATURE” is shortly to be reprinted in a pew edition (the third), with considerable additions and revisions made by the author, and compleved before his death in January last. Mn. HENRY O'NEIL'S “AGE OF STUCCO,” just out in London, is a poetical diatribe against the impos. tures of the uge. Politics, political economy, ora- tory, the arts, tue stage, Journalism, &c., all come in for dennneiauon, RaLra WALDO EMERSON’S new volume of essays will perhaps be ready for publication this fall, His carefully winnowed ‘Poetical tiaadbook for Scholars and Students,” a labor of love, in the editorstup of which Mr. Emerson 1s undersvood to have veen long engaged, will appear from the press of Osgood & Co, in a few weeks. Somb Literary JEnxtxs, who has visited the home of Mrs. Mary T Holmes, the novel writer, in Brockport, N. Y., tells of “a delightful residence, surrounded by trees and shrubs, beds and mounds, Tustic seats and a great quantity of flowers."” We are further tnfurmed that the lady herself is “the chief attraction of the place,” that “every move- ment 1s case and grace,” that she is “fine looking and not far past thirty,” and that her library ‘con- tains a choice collection of books, together with her own works, numbering in all fourteen.” How wonderful ! WHEN A, BRONSON ALCOTY kept @ Yankee school, almost forty years ago, he had sundry metaphysical ways of extracting what was best and brightest in nis pupils’ prains. ‘These methods, with their daily resnlis, were detailed in @ little volume called “The Record of a School,” long since among the “out of print” curiosities of educational literature. This book is avout to appear In a new edition, with a preface by the daughter of the Concord seer, Miss Loutsa M. Alcott, She used this schooi as the model of that at Plumfeid, aiteuded by “Jo’s boys,” to her latest story of ‘Little Men.”’ WILLIAM M. CARLTON, THE NEw WESTERN POET, whose “Betsey and I Are Onv’ and other naive productions have beeu much admired, lives at Hills- dale, Mich., of which State he 1s @ native. He is twenty-iour years of age, graduated two years since at Hillsdale College and edits the Biilsdale Standard, The Harpers have engaged him to write a series of “Farm Baliads,” to be illustrated and printed in Harpers’ Weekly. The charges so widely published that Carlton is & myti or 8 humbug, and did not write the poems pubiished under his nainc, appear to be without basis of fact, Nasby has denied that he is bimself the author of the ones publisued in the Toledo Biade, aud gives them authoritatively to Variton. HAWTHORNE aND His Wire WERE Bota over thirty years old when married. She was a sister of Miss Elizabeth Peabody ana Mrs. Horace Mann, both of woom survive her. When Hawthorne was turned out of his first place in the Custom House his wile lighted a fire in the study and told him she was very giad he would uow have time to finish his ro- Mance, as she had saved enough from his salary to keep thein in bread for afew weeks.

To TH# EDiTor or THR HSRALD:— In the Heap of Sunday, Aagost 15, ts published @ lengthy review of a rewarkabie book, “Tae Com- ing Race; or, The New Utopa.” The work is new and interesting, as the well-proportioned admixture of “philosophy, imagination, satire, poetry,” &c, cannot fail to make it, But [think its torte ts not inany o/ these, nor yet in anything to be deduced from them, bat in its suggestiveness; its faults are suggestive, and the whole, inclucing faults, is fraught with instruction.

Petersen, representing a race of the New York Yachting Sqoadroa, waich exmbit a very general EXCELLENCE OF TREATMENT. The grouping of the yachts is so arranged that one Brace.ui crass oecuptes (ue foreground im each pic- ture, the others verng merely accessories, The Orst pic ure we shall notice represenuw the yachts in full course running before the wind, the masts vendiug under full sati and pioughing through the deep. ‘The tall, slender masts rising graceiully from the dark hel, aad stcainmg ander the WHITE, SWELLING SAILS, impart the idea of swiftness aad power, which fs further increased by the steady, well-palanced move- ment of the foremost yacht. The second yacht fol- lows close, almost in tue wake of the first one, scud- ding with her lee scuppers almost im the water, which is rendered somewhat boisterous by the strong wind that i @riving the yachts rapidly to sea, In the background a fleet of yachts and steamers are watching the race, and the right foreground w vccupied by & steamer crowded with passengers, who exhibit great enthusiasm, miniature ladies and geatle- men waving their handkerchiers In a most reck- less way and acting as little people generatiy do, One small gentiewan in trreproacnabie white pants is perched on the prow, and owing to the evidently poor quality of his legs, which renders the figare unstable, we coufess to some misgivings for his safety. Altogether the artist has coutrived to throw A GOOD DEAL OF ANIMATION into the scene and has well combined his Incidents, giving much mterest to the composition, ‘The lines of the yachts are gracetui and have evidently been carctully studied, and to a landsman’s eye, at least, seem to be perfect, The wator painting is goud; the artist has well rendered the dark green of the shore waicr, with its ever changing neances of color.

"Thisis the chef of our cvisine—I belleve that 1s the French for head cook of the Metropolitan Hotel,” said Mr. Abraham Garneld, one of the proprietors of the notel formerly owned by the Lelands, in Broadway, between Prince and Houston strects. I was standing in the magnificent kitchen of the hotel, recently completed and iurmsned, and before me stoor Professor Jean Ludin, the artist from whose mighty brain must come al! the inspiration whieh is desiinea to achieve more won- derful French dishes to tickle the palates of the guests who are to occupy the 400 rooms of this gigantic hotel. The Professor wasa gentleman of about two hundred pounds’ weight, of ruday coun- tenance, whicn ruddy compiexton was no doubt caused by the constant reflection of large fires In kitchens all over the world—for M, Ludin hat first seen the light at Colinar—fair Colmar on the Rltne— and his fame has been known everywhere as a cull- hary artist from the rising to the setting of the sun. A strong, hearty Gau! this, with fixed principies, could see for mysei/, and a not temper withal, it was paipable, as he rattled the sancepans on the Jong table in the kitchen, of which he was lord and master. And no doubt, from his positive look, he had ylews of politics and knew & thing or two if he was ounce drawn ont. Perhaps, like Beranger, he belfeved in the people ard worshiped the Columao of July :— ‘Pal wm In pats descen:tre snr laterre, Semant de i’or, des leurs et des epis. + Lay etait cating, et du dieu de ta guerre, etoufait les fou tres assoupis.
