High over men'arid nations, -Arid high c/or tho billowy sea: ' hrti mi og with eb ?erial splendor, By friendly bre?se? unfurled, J . Like paacefnl banners waving Abovo the cruel world. Now pouring down tho showers . To gladden tho blooming laud i1n sooth, tho richest blessing From God's almighty bund. "Tis true thoy hurl the lightnings And bid tho thunders pua 1, , Yet doth tho friondly iris On thom her face reveal. The storm howls through thu b. poohes From their tcrial height ; *, Tlio leaves and flowers aro scattered And quickly vanish from sight. Midway, 'twixt earth and heasten, . Like guardian' spirit a they go, And gaze at the stars above them, And look on the world balow. , ??rotn polo to pole they wander .', Like homeless fugitives, Ami exhale In pearly toar-drops Their transitory lives. Th? Spring Vaihtom. Tho fashions introduced aro quito . wetly and attractive, although Lhere Lavo been few radical changes. BONNETS. There is no increase in tho size of the new spring bonnets, as far as we have yet seen. Tho Fanchon is the favorite Bbupe, and satin and steel upon speckled silk, chip nud straw, the favorite trimmings and materials. Bonnets are of lace, of feathers and of headed tulle, iu simple styles. Lace medallions of oval, diamond, or triangular Bhape, are sometimes prettily displayed over pearl grey, pink and laveuder velvet. Orna? ments oro placed directly over thc forehead in the point formed by thc curved diadem added to the Fanchon. Velvet aud lace bows, with ouds, arc placed nigh up on the back of thc bonnet. A becomiug bonnet for t? blonde is of beaded lace over tulle, with a wreath of green berries fram? ing tho face, and u wide fall of lace caught nnder the chin by a bunoh ol leaves. Tho neatest gem of a bonnel is sorircely three inches iu widtl across tho top; the veil forming tin principtd part of tho coiffure. Thc veil is mantilla-shaped, und o chantilly lace, sewn on full at thc back, and falling down to the collar Velvet leaves surround the front. PBB88ES. Walking suits, with a siujjlo skirl simulating two, hnvo given place tt those with double skirts. Som< suits have tho upper skirts formet into a .sundi train, which is to bi looped up, disclosing a gay petticoa beneath. Four buttons and loop are the .simple accessories, or ma chiuery for festooning the long uppe ? skirt. Black velvet dresses are won over scarlet, blue, or greon satii petticoats. Passementerie, jet, fringi and satin piping ornament tho volve skirt. Tho satin may bo either Ief plain or bound with velvet of th same shade, cut bias. Two or th re narrow ruffles of satin aro also used Striped petticoats of very handsom material?, gros grain, nit er na ti h| with velvet stripes, aro fashiounbl, worn without trimming. Vfcry neal and very desirable suit ure made of serge, winsey, or wafei proof elotli, trimmed with cross-en band? of silk stitched on, and bronze buttons. Plain gored skirts, cut th proper walkiug length, and trimme to siiniluto an upper skirt, shot sack, or paletot, trimmed to matel is the proper stylo for these simp] and useful dresses. Fancy design! such as open sleeves, Afarie Ay toinette fleh us, mid the like, should b Tosorved for moro showy material! Stiits aro doing for tho clonk &tort what the small bonnets have done ft tho milliners-almost closed thei np. Their occupation is gone. sae or paletot en suite is considered f sufficient for outdoor wear OS a clou that cost fifty to a hundred dollar; a sum that will buy two entire ord nary street suits, and ono entire (.: truordiimry one, much handsome than tho cloak and any ordinal dress could be. . Tho most stylis new suits or costumes for s?rir wear are mada pi rich black or atom colored silk, or speckled poplin, an consists of doublo skirt, fancy jacki with capo and hanging sleeves, ( Mario Antoinotto scarf. Tho lath is very useful in black silk, ns it on be worn afterwards with any dres For the under skirt tho most fashioi ablo trimming is three narrow Riffle unless tho suit is made in poplin, ai: then cross-cut bands of silk uro ben handsomely finished in tho enibrc dory stitch. Wo do not advise sat /olds for a suit, because they fray t< J ,?-w; iV "v-?'*??"?. ' ? * MC* t y-* ; , ;'r ,' ?

Hanging sleeves, for outdoor wear, are out shorter than th oso attru*ed tc ii ?i ned dresses, ' and, instead of being square at the bottom,) are rounded away almost to a point.. Glose coat sleeves must always be worn beneath them. For ladies in warm latitudes the proper costume for the present sea? son is a high dress, gored plain, ex? cepting at the back, whero it is gathered; and a Marie Antoinette fichu or scarf, ofossed in front, and tied in a wide bow or kuotted at tho buck, the rounded emla descending upon the skirt. This is a quaint, simple, yet stylish dress-best made in black silk, yet ns handsome in grey, and very nine in grey, with black fichu, which will afterwards be available for wear with grenadiuo and muslin dresses. UNEN DKESSE8. Among the very prettiest and best of the new spring goods already on exhibition aro beautiful linens in fine stripes ami small diagonal checks. They aro extremely delicato and cool for summer morning dresses, and vory desirable besides. They aro also very nico for children's suits. There are also English priuts, in small, delicate patterns, of Hoyle's manufacture, such as have not been seen here since 18G0, selling for twenty-fivo cents per yard. During the war the few yards left over of this kind sold for seventy-five cents per yard. SACKS AND WRAPPINGS. New and very pretty Bpring sacks aro made of soft, light-colored cloth, almost white, with revers velvet. The lower edge is fiuished in points bound with velvet, and stitched on to the straight edge of tho sock. Tho points and tho revers suggest a good method of freshening tho old light cloth suck for spring wear, ut very little trouble or expense. Loose, square breakfast jackets are giving place to bodices with tight fitting sleeves and a sash worn at the side. Another stylo has a small basque attached to tho waist instead of a sash. For young ladies there is tho pro? mise of the "Colleen Jlawn," or ono of the prettiest outdoor garments ever introduced. It cousists of a single or donble capo or talma, gathered in the centre, and orna? mented with a rosette, lt also com? pletes a charming suit for little girls. Tho rediugote, literally great-coat, is still worn, and is so convenient, as well os stylish, that it cnn hardly fail to become a universal favorite. A redingote may be mado of silk or velveteen, and requires only a band of the same muterial upou any old skirt to complete the snit. Buttons down the frout and a side sash to tic at. the back aro tho only trimming!: required. NEW Ol.OVKH. Tho now gloves for spring weal have made their appearance in tin rarest and choicest shades of color light bismarck, wood, lilac and buff, being the fashionable bases of severn of these; thero aro no less thar seventy different shades, tho tints ol whi.-h run so close that it is only bj putting them together that experi enoed judges can detect tho differ euee. Tluy are all long upon thc wrist, and aro embroidered in eithei black or white. Those that aro em broiderod iu black are finished upoi the edge of tho wrist with a fine fob of 'I.mbini black kid stitched on Those that are embroidered will white are finished in white kid. Th< back of tho wrist aro ornamcntet with gilt eyelets, laced with fine sill cord, and crimped tassels; or mon fashionably still, with small gilt studi and tassel*. For fastening both studs and tinettes aro used. M. W. BYTHEWOOD, AudioDcer and General Commission Hwcbanl OH Washington st., rrur of A. Tollt sou's, COLUMBIA. H.
