Lave nveived M-vurr.l of filter recent puhlica
tionn in tbe way of Hot ion anil jnvjnile lite
rature. "Lntiro, tbo Ifintoryof a Uiighto J Life,"
by L. C II., is a Trench ntory, or, r.xther, a
utory tlio Roeno of w!iieu is laid in Franco. It
LnB a RoniowLiii lueluncLoly oust, but that will
be rather u morit than othei wi.in with a gooj
many renilern; and iw i.lio K'.oiy is one of roal
intercut, it will !' to WuMy sure of odniirerH.
Considerable f';ill his been shown in tho con
etruction of tho plot, nnd tho characters show
a close study of human nature. Thore are
numerous erudition of fylo which indicate
that this is not tho work of a mature writer;
but it is not only meritorious in itself, hut it
gives promise f something bettor in tho
future.
"The Guided House-; or, Self-Sacrilieo," by
the author of 'TLo Climbers," 'Tuul Ver
ner,'' 'Tut-pose," etc., is a religious story
whi. h is open to tho hutuo objection as most
of ils class, nnd that is, to a preponderance of
tho diductic over tho diam.itic olcineut.
This is one of tho most difficult kinds
of fiction, and yet it in one that is most
frequently attempted by well-intenfiouod
mediocrity, with tho hope that tho desiro to
do good will 1)0 admit ted in extenuation of
artistic sins of every description. Such works
will bo read by a certain class of persons from
a sense of duty, as it were, but thoso whom
it is most desirablo to win towards literaturo
of a hiyh moral tone will bo repelled from
them. ''The Gabled House' is superior to
many religious novels, and as a story it has
considerable infeicst, allh juyli it is far from
being free from the most, obvious faults
of the class of works to which it belongs.
"l'lain Educational Talks with Teachers
and Parents,'" by Albert N. Laub, A. M.,
Superintendent of Lock Tin von Public
Schools, is the record of tho experiences of a
practical teacher, who i-: an enthusi.ist in his
profession, and of the pr tetic.d ideas on edu
cational subjects deduced fro.n them. Tho
work is full of vnlu "b!o hints tind Kucjostious
AJ U1J. w i .uii 1.1 iiiij ui 1.UU-
cation, and as the antii-H s,iys in his preface,
when apologizing for .i.io:1it work on a sub
ject so often Irciucd. "tbe s i' j ;?t U so im
portant, a'ld of sit :U Vil d in.' -yw-.i'-, th.it too
much can hardly be said or. it."
Tho object had iu view in this work has
been to present a great v..iio!y of topics in
such a manner as will inle.ijs.f, both, parents
and teachers. Taren's too ofteu consider the
education of their children as out of their
hands when they send thorn to school, and
teachers too often become mere machines,
working in one routine r.nd losiug tho vital
interest in their work that is necessary if they
expect to achieve success. Mr. Ilaub has
divested his subject of its didactic character
as much as possible, and endeavor? to present
jt in such a plain and uudersfandublo munier
that it may interest nil wbo rc-vl it.
"Levin's Treasura in Bank" is a religious
Ktory for children suitable for Sunday School
li'oraries, and "The Sabbath School Manual"
and "Scripture Manual," by N. 0. Brooks,
LL. D., President of the Baltimore Female
College, are works that teachers and super
intendents will find useful.
Messrs. Clnxton, llemsen & Hif'i'eltins'er
also send us "Found Dead," an interesting
novel oy me aumor oi "Uanyjiis iear,
"Lost Sir Massingberd, " etc.
From T. B. Peterson &. Brothers we have
received several of their new publications.
"The Initials," by tho Baroness Tautphous,
is a novel that has won a well-deserved limi
tation. It is a charming work, which will
long continue to have many admirers.
"Dream Numbers," by T. Adolphus Trol
lopo, is an entertaining story of Italian life.
"The Miser's Daughter," by William Har
rison Ains worth, is the well-known work of
a popular writer, and "lloland Yorke," by Mrs.
Henry Wood, is a sequel to "Tho Chanuings"
of that authoress; and it is distinguished by
all tho bloodthirsty characteristics of her
style.
J. P. Ekelly & Co., send u.s "iiuport Law
rence; or, a Boy in Earnest," by Har
riet B. McKeevcr; end "Alleiton Homes,"
by the author of "The Silversmith
of Jerusalem," etc. These are a couple
of religious stories for young people, and
they are well adapted for Stinduy-school
libraries.
Turner Brothers it Co. send us llitch
eock'n Ki-if Monthly Moyo.uiit for October.
This is tho first number of a now musical
periodic-id, which gives a portrait and sketch
of Madame Malibran, art, musical, and dra
matic gossip, and eight pages of popular
music.
The same house sends us "A Map and
Geography of the Island of Cuba." This has
been compiled from the most recent surveys
and official statistics by G. A. llomero, C. E.,
and it will prove useful to all who are inte
rested in watching the progress of events in
Cuba. A historical sketch of tho island is
given, with other valuable information.
T. Ellwood Zell sends us Nos. 51 and r2
of "Zell's Popular Encyclopedia," which has
now reached the letter "C," and is brought
down to the title "Caldwell." The first two
letters require more space than any of the
others, and the work will now proceed to
wards completion more rapidly than hereto
fore. From Leo k Walkor wo have recoivod
"An Easy and Elementary Course of Sing
ing," selected from German and other authors
by Jean Louis. This in the introductory
manual to Mr. Louis' system of instruction in
vocal nmsio which he is about introducing in
the publio schools. It is exceedingly simple,
and is so easy that it is impossible not to
understand it. This first part contains exer
cises and songs for primary schools, and it
appears to be well adaptod to the purpose of
elementary instruction.

1 lie trees in the Park nnd along our sidewalks
arc now putting on their koik'coiis fall attlro of
crimsons, grccn, nnd gold: mid tho uiodMcs of
Fashion, warned by the cool weather resulting
from the Into rain, have their Miclves nnd coun
ters Flocked widi the novelties of this neitaon.
As yet ImrdndK h:n been lamentably dull hi nil
departments of tin- retail trade; but n Keaotinble
spell of cold lii will Mioti besprinkle our
streets with "lnvi ef bonnet?."
I irst In liriM: ui.re auionsr the beauties for
the considerniiou of our fair renders must bo ,
Hentti'tfl.
The shapes of tho bonnets aro well-nib inde
scribable; but they are bltfifcr than the Fanchon
style, and that bigness is to bo found In their
height. These new hhnpes do not cover tho
head much more than of old; but instead of
lyliiK flat on the head, they tower above It.
Thus they arc the very reverse of tho Fanchon
the diadem, hit-tend of being across the brow, is
across the chltrnon. They are round, high caps,
with revcrs front, and arc often as fully trimmed
behind as before. Tho most graceful shapes arc
almost skeleton bennets two or three bands of
silk nnd velvet alternately forming tho base for
a spray of flowers which, with its garniture of
lace nnd velvet loons, covers tho whole bonnet,
the only foundation being a pufl of thick black
net. The ban ls iiljout the face nro often plain,
and fit the forehead closely. The crowns are
hiiih, and composed of full velvet pluithigs or
diagonal folds, l ately plain, and then covered
with lace.
Velvet rojn.V and gros-graln arc the m ae
rials, with feathers for the principal trimmta"
a long scarf of net behind, and strings to bo
lied under the chin. Lucifer, maroon, and prune
arc the most distinguished colors. Uiack will
be greatly worn, 'there are novel shades of
green a pale, watery tint is vrrd idle; a fresh.
bright color is oasis-green; and a rich dark
shade is the Russian green. Kose-pink will be
much worn for evening bonnets; also pink-coral
color, the soft tin!. ! pale Neapolitan coral, and
cerise, the warn: lowing red of a cherry.
Wondine is a golden-brown shade, like the fair
tresses of a blonde; Kgyptinn brown is like yel
low dust. A model lionnet of maroon and ruby
velvet has a biirlt levers front covered with a
fall of Cbantilly lace. The drooohnr hack Is of
fluted velvet, and lace. A shaded ostrich feather
surmounts the centre. A roiuimdour .srmare is
formed below the chin by narrow velvet edged
with a ruby fold nr.d tied in knot.? at intervals.
Narrow ribbon A prtuie-coloted velvet has
a lOain revers with a large rose cluster near tho
out. A (uun::g of velvet edired witii irros-
grain finishes the back. A large scarf falls low
on the breast, i-s looped at ihe left side ami left
flowing.
Flowers will he t Mich ucd as the season ad
vances, indeed soiik! of the linest bonnets have
no decoration h;ir m-cs and lace. The patterns
for the season idio.v r'ch satin and velvet dowers.
Koses and holly. n-es and grapes, roses and
elderblossoci repeat themselves in ltixurinnt
designs. Cluster', .of f ull variegated rosebuds,
with autumn foliage, are a favorite addition,
and full, medi 't il hwos in soft crimson aro the
most popular flowers of the season. Wreaths of
elderberry, jasndue. ami rosebuds are placed in
evening bonnets, beautiful viues of veined ivy
with scarlet autumn leaves intermingled are de
signed for winter lia'.s. i auited geraniums arc
effective llowcrs with their variegated leaves.
The pansy, in vitviety large and small, golden,
purple, and tri-eohuvd. is a favorite flower, and
is richly eop?d in velvet. Tulips ftn2 lilies of
ciiipe nticl pcio l, Uiiu tutts of marabout issuing
troui their cups, are the most expensive and
delicate novelties. Fringes of curled ostrich
bows and taels of feathers are produced in a
variety of shape?, a;:d aro delicate for evening
bonnets in white. They do not look so well in
colors as the natural ostrich tips. Aigrettes and
leather tufts are worn with plumes as usual.
Hound Hats.
Round hats aro almost universally adopted
this season. The popular shape curves low in
front and behind, with high sloping crown and
turned-up brim. Two feathers at tho front cross
over the crown, almost concealing it. The brim
is covered with velvet, and a rosetto or pompon
is in front. A scarf of the new Donna 'Jaria
gauze (which resembles Rilk tissue) is fastened
behind, from whence it encircles the neck, and
is then permitted to fall behind. This is not a
veil for the face, but a pleasant protection for
the neck, which is now too much exposed by
low-tbroated dresses. Tho scarf is a yard and a
half long and the width of the gmze. When
made of dotted net it is three-eighths broad and
edged with lace two inches wide.
This style of bat Is called La Fronde. It is
very handsome in glossy black plush with velvet
brim. Two long o.:trich feathers sweep back
over the crown, crossing each other behind. A
jet aigrette is In front. Ladies who trim their
own hats will lind that a slight twist near the
tip of a loug ostrich plume will make it curl
gracefully.
La Liqueur, ab-o of the high mousquetaire
shape, slopes very bnv behind on the chatelaine.
A gray felt Ligueur has blue velvet facings on
the brim, and a fan-shaped bow of velvet and
gros grain behind. A grey ostrich tuft at the
back droops toward the front. Scarf of gray
gauze behind, gallic! ed together half-way dowu
by a blue bow.
La ComtcsKr is the most sensible hat shape of
the season. The crown is two and a half inches
high, sloping, vtih upturned sides. This gives
the peculiarities of ihe fashion, namely, the ele
vated crown ami v.ivet revers. without gro
tesiteuess. La ValUvri', a pi-euliar shape, is the most
stylish hat of the season. The brim projects in
front and at the side-, but Is turned up abruptly
behind, and surmocrued with ostrich plumes
nodding toward tme front. Au elegant model is
of maroon velvet with a torsade of gros grain
around the crown an ostrich leather at the back
curling forward, and a long scarf of black net
edged with lace. Strings of gros grain ribbon
are designed to be tied under the elilu, but may
be tied behind.
Simple hats worn for travelling and ou ordi
nary occasions aro of black or brown straw in
me j-ronae suapc, wiui a white gulls l.reast ou
one side, and a cluster of slender black plumes
on the other.
The materials for fashionable hats are soft.
drab and maroon fells, silver-grey plush, velvet
(.both cut nnd uncut t. nnd ioult dn noii; much
shirred and pufled. The latter material requires
deep revers and hows of velvet to render it ap
plicable to hat styles, but the trimming go cover
mu i nune mm suk is oiteu useu as a founda
tion, nnd the brim alone made of velvet. Both
large and small feathers aro used the latter
more than tho former, as thev enn bo disposed
iiiuiu ciisiijr ou u n il. iiuiii me long mu plumes
which nre npt to look stiff unless arranged by a
nice hand. Blinded feather, maroon, crimson
and rose, purple, violet, and mauve, and earou
bler are chletiy chosen. Fowl plumage used for
aigrettes or to mingle with ostrich, but "ame
plumes will not be worn In winter.
Hibl.ons are of poult , 0ic and fine corded
silks, from two to three inches wide. Broader
ribbons of gros-giaiu aro worn as scarfs for
round hats, especially with tho Valols. Color
Include the very lightest shades, euch as Royal
pink, Mexican and lurquolse blue, and the
deepest like prune color, navy blue, and Rus
sian green. J.lruscan browns, and the deep
clicsnul kuown as m (iron, are much worn this
season. A peculiar slaty or purplish grey is
called Beaucroire, from a member of the French
Government who always wore clothes of that
color. Velvet ribbons, in bright color, will be
worn with silk hats. A pretty two-inch nbbou
hns a diagonally corded surface, and 0 rijh wldo
ribbon hs thick, gold-colored satin cord on
both sides.
An effort is made to revive bayadere stripes.'
Pllk of light quality Is Imported Insult patterns;
the mnteriul tor the over dress is plain black,
Unit for the petticoat hns crosswise stripes of a
color alternating with b'ack. Sultan, prune,
enpuclne, nnd oasls-grr.cn are shown. Shot
silks, with narrow satin stripes In contrasting
colors, will make elegant dinner dresses for
young Indies. Sash ribbons In broader stripes
nre in the appropriate colors for each dress.
There is mntive with a narrow satin stripe, pearl
with cerise, blue with uiaroou. sultan with black,
crcen with rose-pink, cnpticlno with black.
There is also satin striped faille, vlollne, blue,
stone-grey, and brown, for more elderly ladles.
Another novelty is satin with chintz stripe on
blue, grey, brown, or purple grounds. The
most elegant importations nre trained dinner
dresses of gros grniu, with velvet borders of the
same color woven In the innterial. The border
is three-sixteenths of a yard wldo, nnd edged
with soft leathery fringe. Velvet sash ribbons
the width of the border should be worn with
these dresses. Ruby, green, bright blue, and
blnck are the colors shown.
l.ndhV Cloth.
Ladies' cloth of excellent quality, soft nnd
light, yet warm, nnd of firm texture, is Imported
for winter suits. Navy blue and maroon are tho
colors most frequently sold; bright claret Is ad
mired for very young ladies; prune-color, two
rich shades of green, chcsnitt-brown; and a
lighter bine thnn the marine shade arc also de
sirable. The best stylo lor making cloth suits is
a long redingote and round skirt, trimmed with
(hit bands nnd revers of velvet or gros grain. It
Is well always to select cloth of a dark quiet
shade that will harmonize with other colors in
order that tho redingote may serve as a wrap
ping for a number of dresses."
Plcnsirg novelties in repellant cloths promise
something of variety in the water-proof wraps
and suits so indispensable in our climate.
American water-proof cloth is shown in half
inch stripes of brown with black, a pretty black
nnd white plaid, nnd light brown with cross
bars of a darker shade. The most serviceable
domestic water-proof is a fine tweed, in beauti
ful shades of grey, brown, and black, mixed
with gold. It is economy to buy this article, as
It does not fade or become rough under the
hardest usage. English water-proof is tho finest
repellant cloth made; it Is, however, very expen
sive. It is shown in black mixed with "maroon,
white, or gold. Six yards is a plain suit pattern,
three nnd a half yards for si cloak. A short
gored skirt and a jockey basque the front fitted
by a dart, tho back with side-bodies, nnd a broad
hollow plait below the belt is the design for a
water-proof suit. A pelerine cape may be added,
but a flounce and upper skirt make it too heavy
for comfort. The trlinmiug is Hercules braid,
or else alpaca braid edged with notched cloth of
bright color.
Pique cloth is new for children's wraps and
for house jackets. It is a light, loosely woven
cloth, with raised tiny dots and diamonds like
rique figures. Cerise, dark blue, and white are
the colors. Pinked edges or bindings of bias
velvet are the appropriate trimmings Smooth
fine cloths of bright scarlet and navy blue are
made Into the popular sailor kct with deeply
pointed collar, trimmed w: o-inch band o'f
pinked white cloth, on wlm : ,t narrower band
of tho cloth of the jacket. White cordurov like
ribbed velveteen is handsome for breakfast
sacques. Large buttons in front looped with
silk cord are suflicient. trimming. Carlotta cloth,
of deep lustreless black, has thick closely curled
threads like Krimmer. This is intended for
cloaks worn in fresh monruing.
A gorgeous cloth for buruouses and Metter
nieh circulars for evening wear has stripes of
scarlet plush, alternating with gold and black
stripe of intricate Oriental pattern. Cable cord
and tassels of scarlet and gold should bo used
for trimming. Opera chub, in narrow stripes of
white velvet with a color cerise, blue, green,
or buff is much admired. A pure white cloth
for a trousseau cloak is woven of line square
braids and basket check and plush, in imitation
of seal ikiu nnd of the wavy Russian lambskin.
TnrlniiH.
The word tartan does not refer to anv oartleu-
lar fabric, but to tho various combinations of
colors and patterns adopted as a distinguishing
mark by the different Highland clans. The
colors and lints of many of the original tartans
are copied faithfully in modern serges and pop
lins. Ladies who wear plaid garments should
know what tartan they have assumed hence wo
give the colors of those most worn at present.
Of the blue and green tartnns now bo fashiou
able, the Sutherland or Forly-sccond Is tho
favorite. It is composed entirely of blue and
green; and in the true tartan every lino of tho
plaid is repeated, whether tho blocks aro largo
or small. This tartan is tho basis of many
others; for example tho Sutherland plaid with
white cross-bars forms the Campbell tartan; with
yellow bars tho Gordon; with red the McDonald;
with both red and yellow the Faniuharsoii: with
red and white the McKenxic. These aro tho
plaids most worn for street suits. Among tho
gay plaids chosen for shawls and buruouses tlio
Stuart is the favoiite. It has large scarlet blocks
with crossing lines of yellow, white, black, and
blue. The M'Intosh is a similar tartan with
more yellow in it. Tho MTarlane has a red
ground barred with green, white, and blue. Tlio
Victoria plaid, named in compliment to the
Queen, who prefers it to any other, is tho
original dress tartan of the Stuart elan, with
white ground instead of red. This bright plaid,
like the scarlet and black Rob Roy, is popular
for shawls and for children's clothing. French
poplins in tartan colors aro sold for children's
bPst dresses. For plaid suits we prefer belted
mantles, but short jockey basques with a scarf
crossed on tbo shoulder In Highland fashion aro
in favor. There should be twoskirts, tho lower
one trimmed with a bias volauto live inches
wide, vnudyked on each edge, and bound with
alpaca braid; the upper skirt is merely van
dyked. Very narrow satin galloous in'tartan
colors are sold for trimming self-colored
dresses.
VniielleN.
A pretty frill called a Fraise is worn around
the neck. On a band of Swiss muslin au inch
wide and three-quarters long, Vlaenciennos edg
ing is gathered and sewed back aud forth across
the band, forming pretty shell-like curves. Hall
inch Valencienues will answer. Tho Mario
Stuart frill is formed of two straight strips of
muslin edged with lace. These are pleated one
within the other, attached to a tape, and worn
standing around the neck. Unbleached linen
sets, oruanieuted with English open-worked
embroidery, are Imported to bo worn with plain
black silk dresses and travelling costumes.
Black velvet and tartan sashes arc most in
favor. They are made with many superposed
loops and very short ends. The bolt should
fasten behind beneath the bow. A metallic belt
called the Empress, finished in jet. silvered, gilt,
and plaid patterns, and woru with slides to
match, is convenient and pretty with morning
wrappers. It is also useful as a foundation for
silk belts. Morocco belts with steel buckles aro
wora with travelling dresses. Large jet buckles
with cameo hejujgjroljnpcj;tcdjrir silk belts.
