LETTER.
J1Y Mils. GIIDNDY.
To the observant promenader of Ilroadway
the flli.'it of hard times arc distinctly seen,
though vailed beneath tnilliaut collors and
loud fashions. The dresses of the crowd reminds
one of ''Grandmother's piece bag''
where calico and chintz are mingled velvet
and brocade?though in this case (irandmu
seems to have been pretty poor, for velvets
and 'silks are few. The mixed effects is
heightened by the variety of dress consequent
upon the negative character of the season. <
r.xrr mtsTt.K.
Now that, every lady lias had her fill of
country and seaside, and come back to tin' 1
bustle?I beg pardon?the confusion ami I
gayety of the city, we shall soon know wh< re 1
we Stand?what fashions are to be the wheat
and what the chaff this winter. Of some we !
are sure. Many must he tried and proved be- !
fore judgment can be passed upon them. '
One thing is certain, namely that hustles are 1
subsiding. They have already gone out in
theory, though not in practice, hut we are
sure to follow Paris soon, and discard them
altogether. It is funny to watch how reluct
antly this much kicked and waggled instru- (
men t of torture is gi von up. The sitings arc |
let out little by little till they roach their ut
most extent, then one litre well wear is in- ) .
dulled in, ami the poor bustle thinks its day \ i
of re?.t has come. Not so. it is turned over
Lo Bridget, who strings it ti[> tighter than eyor. t
asks for an afluinoon out, and kicks it all the
way tip and down the street, Idling as slylisli 1
as ever her mistress did. And this fw.llnfj of 4]
itylo which the hustle gives, is the secret of I
Its popularity. Certainly nothing could be
more inartistic or more uncomfortable, and \
we bid it adieu with no regret. f

Everything in the way of ovorskirts is longer
than ever, and so mixed in with under- >
skirt in the train that one can scarcely tell b
whether there is an overskirt or not. In h
Some eases it does not reach the waist hr.t is 1
finished with a binding just below it, sloping '
ufl'ou one side, and really taking the eharao- 1
ler of a huge sash reaching to within half of h
a yard of the bottom of tho dress This is 1
always either arranged in great diagonal 1
folds or trimmed with diagonal rows of
hinge, lace or very fine knito pleating. The (
back is a how so enormous as hardly to h
!?o recognized as a how at first, oddly arranged \
draftings, always one shied. Trains are all
ran sliaped, generally pleated or gathered
half way up the skirt to make them very
spreading. This Is a very neat fashion?a
great improvement on the loose swashing of '
the old wide train. I'olonalses are loo grace- ^
ful and loo convenient to stay out long, and j
accordingly have been received into lull fa- -j
vor again?longer than before and not so ^
plain, often will} the large diagoal pleats. ?
The plain polonaise is, however, a favorite, \
and in rich material is Very elegant.
SA.MIKS. |
are coming in again?which fact will relieve
the mind of many a maiden who wished very t
milch to freshen up her hlack silk this fall |
and didn't know how in the world to uccom i i
plish it. Cardinal is tho color, esj. .dally with \
white, although delecate blue, cream and i 1
primrose are to be worn. The favorite Human
has not yet mad its appearance, though t
we shall not probably get through the winter >'
without it. ,J

W Allll,
In waists wo find the novelty of yokes?
aaby waists tl?ey are called. The lower part
?f the waist is a plain cuirass fitting closely
ibout the hips, while the upper is tiiiniueil
ivith lace or otherwise to correspond with the
skirt. A very pretty way to make these is to
point the body of the waist ami knile-ple.it
.lie yoke, letting tho plain points he on the
pleats. This is very becoming to the figure.
Ami now if our gentlemen friends will close
heir ears for a moment I will oiler a little
piece of advice which all my lady readers
ivill do well to follow. In these ilays when
loose waists are utterly tabooed ami every
garment of this kind must lit like a glove, you
must remember that a well made and well
moulded corset is the very corner slona of a
stylish get up, and lake due earn that this
[mm 01 ytuii eosiome is 1101 negiceicu. <M all
things avoid sewed corsets. <???L a woven one
and make sure tljat it is shapely, flexible, and
easy. The very best corset though rather an
expensive one is known as the "6lh Avenue."
Kqually reliable hut a little less tine and easily
art! the MA A," the "Ueauty" and the
"( 'harm," in getting either of whieh y >u eannot
go wrong. It is terribly poor eeonoiny
for a Woman who takes any pride in Iter appear.meo
to he careless or over saving in buying
this ?/ne f/im /ion of a good figure. Insist
therefore on having one of the above named
kinds and you have the best foundation for a
handsome costume.
"i'lcup-kti.y i.ovi:i.y."
In now goods tiio dama/sce bi'oeatelle
of silk ami wool are the most
striking. The former comes at about
a dollar a yard, single width; the latter
is live dollars, double. The principal
dillerene.e is in elegance el design
and amount of silk. 1 he tlamassee is
handsome enough for most people, hut
the lilooalello is the loveliest thing
ever introdneed. It looks like line
worsted goods, my rile, green, navy
blue or Stul brown, eminoideied by
iiaud with silver in palm leal patterns,

In little things about the latest uovidty
is i he velvet bag. This has silver
filigree mountings and hangs Irom

This appeal was Addressed to a
Postmaster whoso annual compensalion
is less than ono hundred dollars,
lie received with it a curd inhuming
him that lie was assessed twelve dollars,
and directing him to remit the
Bum to (ion. .John N. Knapp of Auburn.
t >I course this assessment was levied
in the interest of that civil service reform
which Mr. Hayes has so much '.at
heart, and that lite tenure of oilice
which lie has promised to establish if
ho could he elected. That such assessments
should tic levied ami such
circulars sent out, shows how intense
is ti;c interest which the managers ol
the Republican party take in the purification
of our cud service.?N.

Committee of the Kitih District,
which the Postmaster declined fin

from 11iin and the oilice discontinued.
This is meanness as well as iniiiujdation,
to deprive a wh >le community of

the present corrupt party in power.

Eight yuavs ago the Republicans
carrie'I llie country on Grant's famous
phrase, "Let us have peace!" This
meant ponce with the conquered and
devastated South, and ihe people welcomed
it gladly, and elected him.
The phrase was a hollow sham, and
oyer since then Grant and the Republicans
have done nothing hut keep up
the war against the South) although
they knew it could make uo resistance,
and had no desire to make any; and
the present condition of those crushed
and plundered States is worse than a
was when Grant made his lying promise
ot peace to them and to us.
Now tin; President and his followers
have got on ho lar, and have hecome

and they i?suu proclamations

about to be held thuie under the authority
of the Constitution, and to
make the result o' those elections
tavorable to tbutuvdvcft, no matter
though the majority 01 the pe >ple
may vole otherwise.
