interested to know that in New York, as to
spring bonnets, they are said to be bewitching

The form is greatly improved—more room in
the crown. In short they are more overcoming
ns well as becoming to the fair feces, smiling
-out from the blushing buds and blonde frills.
Favor seem rather to lean to the full crown—
caps very deep--with sin over frill of "blond—
and from between the two, tendrils and leaves
of the most delicate grasses and moss, peep
daintily out as if to make sure that the reign
of stern, cold winter woo over before presenting
heir buds and flowers.

is lying itt jail in Lexington, awaiting the re•

man, it will be remembered, was claimed as a
fugitive and given up, notwithstanding a strong

been permitted at former times, by her master,
to visit free soil, she bad ee become free. There
was no popular resistance to the execution of
the Fugitive Law, and compliances with its re.
