of buttons to match. - This style of trimming
is also seen on single skirta aqd on children’s
dresses. 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.
A Stolen Soull.—A curious illustration of

pended by some unknown hand upon the tomb
of the illustrious doctor when the learned body
arrived at the spot, was placed with the rest
.of the bones in a new coffin, and the ceremony
proceeded. The story told by Roux is this; Hav
ing ioarnt from tho wife of tho graVo-digger of St.
Catharine’s that au Englishman had otfored hor
husband a large sum qf money to obtain possession
v of the skull of Dr. Bichat, Roux immediately hur
ried. to the. grave-digger, menacing him with the
vengeance of tho whole Ecple do Medecine if he
dared todeseorate tho grave of its idol. Overcome
with terror, the unfortunate oulprit confessed that
,tba deed was'ilroady done, and that the skull was
already packed, waiting for the Englishman, who
was to come' and fetch it that very night. Warned
'hy the threats .of Hr- Roux, the grave-diggor drew
from his provision cupboard, by tbe side of the
chimney, the skull, and, placing it in the learned
dootor’s hands; begged bard for forgiveness, pro
mising nover to offend ces Messieurs of tho Kcole
again. Roux took tho skull ho>ue to examine, but,
during all these years, hc.hal kept it as the great*
est treasure that earth couli confer, and nothing

The Poetry or Paupbrism.—A committee
of the Sunderland Board of Guardians having been
appointed to inquire into various matters connected
frith the state of the workhouse, presented a report
ost week, in whioh they rocommendod (wo quote
the words of the sentimental document): “ that
measures be adopted to destroy the host of invaders
who have taken possession of the clothes of tho
paupers, and who may be seen in embryo state, In
myriads, in tbe valleys and on the mountains of
tbo invaded possessions, waiting to bo warmed into
life and activity, when they make a hostile attack
upon the poor inmates of the house, and though
they do not massacre them, yet they dreadfully
harass and distress them.” —Lovdojl paper.

of a letter witten by a ,Now Yorker who was pre
sent at the contest, and whose opinions may be
• relied on, os he not only went over expressly to see
• the race, but knows what a horse is, and, still
niore, up to the.day before tho. race he.was firmly
impressed f that on'the evening of tho race ho
would have a sip of old port out of the coveted cup.
. ~The day before the race, July29.be Bays: “To

in driving in the streetfe, I .bolleve wo will fetch

-his hdrses from tho jump, ho will carry the cup to
America. One more day will prove whether my
surprises are correct. There is considerable talk in
the papers about the Yankee horses.”
The day after tho race he writes: “Friday morn

am sorry to say we will not be able to bring the

same thing. Monsrquo was the boy, Biseber se

niIOICE FARM LANDS FOE SALE—
TUB ILLINOIS CENTRAL RAILROAD COMPANY
Is now prepared to sell about’ 1,500,000 acres of choice
farming lands, in tracts ef 40 acres and upwards, on
long credits, and at low rates of Interest.
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.

IMPORTANT IMPROVEMENT
NEW GAS'CONSUMING FURNACE.
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
