HINTS ABOUT DRESS. Alphonso Karr has wittily;'if not rev .n•ently, said, that the toilette of-women is like the altar which the Greeks erected to the unknown god ; they dress" they know not for whom. Throughout the animal creation the brightest enlemaint. gayest plumage are almost invariably given to the male ; but in the case of 'limn, it is the feminine element which travels in brillianthuos, and it is to woman , vre must look to preserve" the [esthetic palance of the universe. Man furnishes t lie element of power, — we look to her for the graceful and the beautiful. And as it is to the eye that the beauty of woman first appeals, that sonso demands impo- I x:lonely to have its rights. The first duty 'of woman to society is to dress,well. •. Now to dress well, is not necessarily . to dross OxponsiVely, , it Is only to dress appropriately. But : to accomplish this needi an intimate knowledge' of ono's ' self, a kuowlodgo. Which, strange as' it( mayyseern, few peOplo possess', because it is-only to be, acquired bycareful study, and a most candid and impartial scrutiny. A really vain woman never dresses wolf, ' beeause sho has the hardihood to ima, ' gino that oho looks well in anything, and tosses upost hOr person a medley of in- „congruous Ohms and forms, thitt, tcwiso 'an expressive French idiom; swear at ;each othOr, as well as at every 'shade in her complexion, every lino in her shape. "'Pio three grand unities of dress are timo, place, and , person. The woman who knows herself to bo fifty, and dresses ,uorsistently like fifteen, loses Um advent-, Igo that a careful adjustment of sober , tones and matronly combinations would have given her, and brings the faded tints of lior - complexion - into 'dangerous proximity tothedapliog colors of youth. While recourse to the. coarse and una vailing devices of paints and dyes cannot be too earnestly deprObatedievery logltl mato means of Cottoning tho ravages of :,imo by judicious concealments and tho .150 of quiet, but cheerful tints, must be umsiderednotonlylogitimato, but praise worthy.

Leave your gems and gauds to those who need them,Amd come out like the fresh young Spring, with her light in your, eyes, and her flowers in your sunny hair. It is a matter of econ omy, young ladies, to which we -would counsel you.

' It is not enough to dross according to age, we must also regard the unity of place. Station in life, or absolute literal standing of_ the moment, both are 'CO be -consulted. __Simplidity is a grace and a charm, but we do dot care to see a.duoh ess dress liko a milkmaid ; it is her duty, as Well as her privilege, to delight our eyeii with magnificence, the creamy sheen °rani* tho soft rich lights of velvet, and the brilliant flashes of precious stones. And most assuredly e we' do not wish to see the niilkmaid ape the duchess. What would becbine of her dairy while she was attending to her toilette, add how would her panic?? consort with 101'1141k pans.? A servant looks much more lad,y+' like, if shOdid but know it, in neat and modest garments Witting 'ber 'duties, than she does rigged out in tawdry finery which imitatea the worst taste of her mbstreas ; and the daughter of a poor man is love lier in a simple merino which she can afford, and is at ease in -wearing, than in any extravagant pomp'of gill and* satin. Our American ladies aro often cen sured by foreigners for wearing toilettes to rich and gaudy forth° place in which they may happen to be. These critics complain of their slovenliness in drag ging superb dresios through the mire of the town ; and now that the fashion of sweeping the streets, with ladies' trains is happily abated;-of the display in those streets of toilettes so gorgeous in color and, rich'in *niaterial as to attract every eye, and _diet the_ attention of every lounger.., The pronounced him-of fash ionable toilettes at present to do that very thing; and to enable the wearer to pass-through a gauntlet-of vulgar obser vation, which would cause a truly mod est woman to sink into tho ground with shame. Balsae says that. we have be lieved the mowches of the eighteenth con tury lost v or forgotten ; we are mistaken: To 7 day, the Women, 1001'0 skilful than those of the. past, seek the gaze of the .opera glass by the most audacious strat agems. This ono first discovers the rosette of ribbons, with a diamond in the centre, which attracts the attention of an evening, that ono revives a past mode, .or.plsots a_dagger_ sublime efforts, these Waterloos of co quetry or love, then become fashions to the inferior Spherac while those happy creatures aro seeking new Ones. BM; to attract attention, it is needless to say, is not 'synonymous with dressing well, or wo might take a perambulating adver-, tisor for our model, and no woman is well dressed who wears in the street the materials and colors only fit for the house, or who persists in dragging through the dirt a train only intended to be worn in a carriage. And of all forms of bad dressing, tho worst is to be over, dressed, for it adds the Nulgarity-olos tentation to the list of our Facial crimes. Accidents will happOit;: - ' 4f - course, and the victim whom a prolonged experience has convinced that "a few friends" means a full dresopartyof five hundred, will oocasionally Stumble upon a genuine reunion of half a dozen, in all the pomp, and circumstance of his war paint, but then the toffOtto is its own and all suffi cient punishinent. The'Offender is stran gled in-his own white choker. There reMains_to be considered the third and all important point—The 'per son.- And it, is - hore that.that candid and impartial scrutiny of which we' spoke be fore must begin; We 'Mist be-aware of all our defects in order to 'soften and ob literate them, as worn ist be aware'of all our beauties in order -to give dqo prowl : . nonce to their direct: Those aro certain' well known and universal rules to be ob served as , for instance, that porpendicu - • lar stripes give length to the figure, while horizontal. ones shorten it, that shawls are not becoming- to high shoulders, nor plain waists to 'flat chests, that round faces leok best below a high head dress,- and thin ones . beneath a low one; that brunettes should' not•wear: , :greon (Which they wilt d4l), nor blondes yellow, and so on. But besides this_ b,o 'of the art of dross, there is a subtler personal adapta tion-of--what Balzlm•has well called the aolclica (patches) of the present day: It consists in tho. dexterous arrangement, not only of the grand masses of the toil ette, tho harmonious disposition of tint and form, but_ vf. those_littlo.liothings.l which go so far to make thO perfect whole, the ribbon' added, to Produce tho necessary climax of color, the well chosen jewel, that answers ,to the palaces high light, tho nameless devices that enhance the beauties of the subject, and throwits shadmff-Wty foot ?' the,daisitiest of chauskivs reveals its Arab lines; an ugly hand? soft •fallei of dainty limo tone down any harshnociS 9f acid half conceal its size.-• The hairiolled back ,in silky waves reveal); the exquisitebontour of the ear, or Curled and frizzed above the fOraltead,. takes away. from its . uutominine thousand airy nothings ,g 9 to make that charming whole of :which Ben, Jensen was dreaming, when ho sang, • • ' • • 0,9 mo vtaco, '.l:6at makea:slinpllclty n grtico I" Uo littlo know how much art had been expended upon that plcture of "a siveot We have.said - nothing,of .inasoulino at tiro, becausa .it is at present a hopeless subject.• • 'Until 'men haye sueueddetr in roforMing - tho of wornii tosmoot par, Own ideals of the onbliniO and .Inall tlfuilyqtlfoitif which change with every fashion, it is uselees to : say ',Unythiiig; of thehi own Monstrosithii(of l dteSo.; 'the' sphere 6' w s oinaii has, ,been correctly, an satiitprprpsedo4edi vitou. tho much vexed qiiesfiOn of tho ballot' ohall bo ESIMIll!El lEEE %led vuFset at test, when Nrdnionah3ll have attained the dross sictlerdirit td - man, 'pdaoi6siiitifill at idl„lanits; Without the expense of gather, time or"snoi<oy; tlio'u' - we - slatll - expect -a-reforinr.irt.theliabilf-.

But the collect. or exhibited. the manifest necessity -that ho should fork over. -Captain Baculard did fork ever in a rage, but jnstantly re paired to the palace of the Boy, demand ing justice: "Coed Frank," said the Boy, f' I win your, friend.. God is great: What do - yowerant - of - rne ?" "Highness," answered Captain Bacu lard, " your custom house has robbed me. - I have forked over. Fork badk." "Bieellent individual," answered the Bey, "in this country, when we have the dust, we keep . it. - The original ac quisition is the difficulty. To fork back is a thing unknown in Africa "But shall I not have justice ?" . " Certainly ;:every ono has justice in Tunis. Will-you, hayu it in Tunis or in French fashion 7" "Ilighnesii, I 'have had a lawsuit or two in Franco. Justice in French fash ion?—God forbid I" "But I do n't press iti on you," ob serv'ed tho Bey. "If you choose the Pkench after all, I will speak to your Consul. Ho loveii justice, good man.; three of my subjects applied to him yearit ago for immunity, and they will get if next year,- I think—for ho loves justice." " FrOncii justice P—neyer ! • Give me. the Tunisian ; I am in a burry." " Do it then ; God in ,groat 1" said the Boy. "what is your cargo?" Marseilles soap, and twenty thousand cotton caps." . "It is well. Go away and 'be tran quil."' _ The bey summoned the Vizior. - " Vizier," said hd , "fkih_ls no God but God, and MaliOnict Is his prophet. We love justice. :We love 'the Pranks. Proclaim that every : Frank who appears to-morrow out of doors without a cotton cap, will'have a little transaction to sot; tlo with me." There wore twenty thousand Franksin, Tunis, and not a-single cot cap in WO place. Theytheir all made air When an officer of the custom house gave no tice that Captain Baculard, had loth of the desired, article, that was enough, and Captain Baculard sold_tho invoice at two dollars a cap, Ho rushed to the palace and poured out Ida thanks. " Not so fast," said they . Bey,L" I am not done-yet. Call my Vizier." The Vizier was called "Proclaim," maid the Boy, " that every Ijcalik who keeps a cotton cap another hour will have trouble - with you: dod is great, and . I am a lineal descendant of Mahe:met." The Vizier niado a grand nalnte, placing biz left leg on the_back of his neck, according to the custom of the Court, and retired: . When Captain Beenlaid returned to the dock ho found the twenty thousand Franks hlroady awaiting him, cap in hand. Ile might have -had the caps for. nothing ; but being desirous of leaving behind him a llama for generosity and greatness of - soul, be purchased them at two cents apiece. EXTREME DELICACY.
