MoutantS lor hands of taffetas, of a different, cojor from tbp dross, braided and edged round with a fringe, or, trimming formed pf, narrow black."lace, are' also in favor. A pretty.skirt is sometimes made by cutting the breadths' only half the, length : of the - skirt, and fastening on the bottom' of them a full deep flounce, headed by a double, bouillonno, and plaiting a vlelie, or a roucho. When the dress is composed of a light material, th 6 body is made full, with a hand; if in taffetas of summer poplin, it is made to button high, and ornamented with brandebourgas. In both cases it ,is finished by a ribbon' sash, tied at front, with long ends. • ■ Wo have lately seen a lilac muslin made m this way, with which was worn a P°| nt fh shawl of black lace with a deep lace irill; and a drab bonnet composed .of. brilliant straw, trimmed with a long drab feather placed across, and turning round the side. Tho, insido was lined with green, and simply ornamented by a bpquot of violets. Lilac is decidedly the color for muslin, jaconot, and taffeta dresses. A very pretty toilette may bo composed of ,a dress of lilac and white taffetas, with two skirts, edged With a double fringe of tho same color as the dress. With this may be worn an Indian muslin mantle, pointed behind, trim med with a deep frill, with a lilac ribbon in the hem. Above this frill, and round the top of the mantle, should be a bouillone. of muslin, with a ribbon placed under it; and, to complete this dress, a white chip bonnet, ornamonted by a bouquet of corn flowers and ears. , White muslin dresses are still made with flouuces; sometimes two, with very full head ings; or three, surmounted by bouillonnes, with colored ribbons passed under them. .These dresses are sometimes worn over col ored slips. Others are made with double skirts; the longer one with merely a broad hem; the shorter one cut in large scallops, edged v with a scalloped or embroidered frill, above, wlfidh is placed one or two bouillonnes. Tho '■ form of the body is high, gathered en garbe, with, a ruche round the throat. The sleeves a la Venitlenne, trimmed round with embroidered, frills and bouillonnes, and out open so far as the elbow. The upper part is arranged in large plaits, and a bow is placed at tho opening. Over light-colored dresses, large casaqties of plain muslin are sometimes worn, trimmed with full plaiting, a la vielle, of muslin. Double Talmas, or large' pelerines, without any, seam, are also worn, and are gene rally ornamented either with a ruche of muslin or tulle, or simply hemmed round with' a rib bon. Toung ladies’ dresses of summer mate rials are made with low bodies with short sleeves, with which is worn either a fichu pay sanne or a muslin canezou. . We have already noticed the quiltings now much worn for travelling and seaside dresses, but we did not mention that the galon, of two colors, .with, which they are trimmed, is also bound round the bottom of tho skirt, whicli prevents it from cutting. Taffetas dresses are also now frequently bound round with black velvet when it is used in trimming the dross, or with a galon the color of the taffetas or the trimming. 1 Under sleeves and habit shirts for morning wear are sometimes made of cambric muslin, printed in very small pattern—in pink, blue, lilac, or coral; great care, however, is heeded, that the color chosen should suit that of tho dress. Others, which we decidedly prefer, are made of white cambric muslin embroidered in colors.

These lands were granted by the Government to aid in the construction of this Road, and are among the richest and most fertile In the world. They extend from North-East and North-West, through the middle pf the State, to the extreme South, and include every Variety of climate and productions found between those parallels of latitude. The Northern portion Is chieny prairie, interspersed with fine groves, and In the middle and Southern sections timber predominates, alternating with beautiful prairies and openings. The climate is more healthy, mild and equable, thad any other part of the country—the air is pure ana bra cing, while living streams and springs of excellent water abound. Bituminous Coal is extensively mined, and supplies % cheap and desirable fuel, being furnished at many points at $2 to $4 per ton—and wood cau be had at'tht same rate per cord. Building Stone of excellent quality also abounds, which can be procured for Uttle more than the expense of transportation. The great fortuity of these lands, which are a black rich mould, from two to five feet deep, and gently roll lug; their contiguity to this road, by which every feel itiy 1b furnished for travel and transportation to the principal markets North, South. East, West, and the economy with which they can be cultivated, render them the most valuable investment that can be found, and present the most favorable opportunity for persons of Industrious habits and small means to acquire a com fortable independence in a few years. . Chicago is now the greatest graiu market In tbe world: and the facility and economy with which the products of these lands can be transported to that market, make' them much "more profitable, at the prices asked, than those more remote at government rates, as the addl tional coßt of transportation Is a perpetual tax on tbe latter, which must be borne by the producer, In the re duced price he receives for his grain, Ac. ~ . The title la perfect—and when the Anal payments are • made. deedß are executed by the trustees appointed by the State, and in whom the title (a vested, to the-pus chasers, which convey to them absolute titles in fee sim ple, free and clear of ewery Inodmbranca, tteu or mort gage. Tho prices are from $0 to $3O: interest only 3 per ct. Twonty per ct. will be doducted from the price for cash. Those who purchase on long credit, give notes p&yabld in two, three, four, five and six years afterdate, and are required to improve one-tenth annually for five years, so as to have oue-halfthe land under cultivation at the efid of that time. Competent surveyors wilt accompany those who wish ta examine these Lands, free of charge, and aid them in making selections. .The Lands remaining unsold are as rich and valuable as those which have been disposed of. BEOTIGNAL MAI'S Will be sent to any one who will enclose fifty cents io postage stamps, aud books or pamphlets containing nu merous instances of successfnrfarmiug, signed by re speciable and well known farmers living In the neigh borhood of the Railroad Lands, throughout the State— also the coat of fencing, price of cattle, expense of har vesting, threshing, etc.,—or any other information will be cheerfully given on application, eitherpereonally or by letter, In English, French, or German, addressed to, JOHN WILSON.

CHILSOWS NEW'CONE FURNACE, after having been put to the most severe test, during the two COLD WINTERS or 18M and 1857, has proved to be the most powerful heater in the world , saving from X to X the fuel over any of the best furnaces now In urfe. Th?sb Fdbnaobs are constructed, with a cast Iron ash pit,* and a broqd, shallow pan-shaped fire pot, lined with fire-brick or iron Btares. The fire pot is surmount ed with A SERIES OF (JONES, or TAPERING RADIATORS, large and broad at their base, but tapering to small aper tures at tho.too, and uniting with tho anular chamber, through which the heat and smoke pans to the Hue. Tna whole products of combustion in the form of smoke aud oases, aro suspended directly oror the fire, confined or compressed iuto the tapering Cones ana contindallt exposed to tho direct action of the rays of heat and light from the firo. This heat and light is brought to a foods in each Cone, not unlike the COLLECTION OF THE SUN'S RAYS, to a focal poidt through an ordinary lens, causing the rwokb and oases to become mtensely heated And tho roughly consumed, by this operation the smoxk and oases are made equally available with the fuel Itsblf for heating purposes, while, in other furnaces, it is CARRIED OFF AND WASTED IN TUB OBIMNKY. All persons desirous of obtaining the best aud MOST ECONOMICAL HEATING APPARATUS, should not fall to examine the New Gas Consdmino Cone Fornaob. before purchasing any other. The at tention of architects aud builders-is particularly re quested. ARNOLD & WILBON, . (Successors to 8. A.
