is half-circular, with a berthe of
tulle, fitting to the figure. A skirt
of taffeta and tulle, in about equal
widths, drooping considerably at the
back, trimmed with passementerie
and fringed lace, constitutes the
garment. It will be observed that
it has wings which drape gracefully
over the arm, the seams being mark-
ed with a cord and brandebourgs.
The front is surplice-shaped, and
may have strings inside to adjust it
more closely to the waist. This is

made in black only.

The Boy's DRESS is of pea-green merino, with a trimming of a darker green, almost black. The sleeves and pants are of nansouk. The hat is of straw, with a ball trimming.

The LACE BERTHE is composed

of illusion net, with pale blue ribbons drawn through the bouillonnées, and bows of the same. It has falls of lace, with a simple cross spray of myrtle leaves and blossoms.

The UNDER-SLEEVES are so clearly represented in the engraving as to need no description.

A BATHING DRESS may at first sight appear to lie beyond the domain of fashion. Still there is no

reason why this should not be pretty as well as appropriate. The one which we illustrate may be made of delaine flannel, or any similar material, edged with a darker shade of the same; or of bombazet, with a fringe of buckshot, covered with the material of the dress, with pellets of lead in the lower skirt. This latter material will be found quite available.

ble, and History to make her startling records, and Art to delineate her glorious images? Who is he whose part in the great drama of America's heroic age assumes a nobler character as each cycle of years carries the generations forward and more remote from the time of the first curtain-rising of that theatre whereon Washington and his compatriot soldiers and sages won the world's applause? He was the sixth child of a Huguenot; and, giantly as he looms up in our country's Valhalla, he was "no larger than a New England lobster, and might easily enough have been put in a quart pot," at his birth.

Child of a Huguenot! And who were they with that strange name? They were fruitful seeds of free institutions, wafted to the generous soil of the New World upon the fierce gales of religious persecution. They were the consanseventy thousand Protestants whose slaughter guine and religious descendants of some of the commenced on the night of St. Bartholomew's festival, almost three hundred years ago, to
