LATEST PARISIAN FASHIONS

(FBQM OUB O"WH COKBHSPONDENT )

Many beautiful fancy costumes are bow made for the season, modelled after tbe Elizabethan period, with moderate ruffs and fiurtbingales. A very pretty costume of Queen Mary s time ig of apple green velvet, a flowing single skirt, the bodice ending at the waist in a gold band cut as a low square, with the seams beneath the arm. It is filled in the throat with muslin and has a close upstanding ruff, bound with . strings of pearls and there is a muslin coif on • the head. Tight sleeves end in a jewelled ( band above the elbow with stuffed epaulettes ' bound with gold, carried down the sleeve and ] tapering to a point. The dress of the Protectorate is made with a white skirt with floral stripes arranged in box pleats and ending in a horizontal striped band. Tbe bodice and open over-skirt are black velvet, trimmed at the neck and wris' with a network of pearls. The sleeves are light green, the epaulette puffs are a bright pinky red, and the cuffs of vandyked lace turned upwards. A lace-edged ruff, and a muslin fichu tucked into the bodice are par ticularly becoming. The hair is brushed over a cushion and ornamented with five bows of; narrow ribbon, each formed of triple loops. ] Women dress for dinner in as many different ways as the meat is served. Low gowns, half. , high gowns, or tea gowns, which are akin to dressing-gowns, or tea-gowns that closely re semble the revised court bodice, inspired by the modes of mediceval times—all these are popular. However, s line must be drawn some where, and it is not in good form for a young lady to appear at a cotillon in a sort of would-be tea-gown. A very brilliant dress for home afternoons is of apple-green crepe, de chine softly pleated from the waist, in such a way that it is gathered at the hem, and turned under, forming a bofeUonne. The front is composed of brocaded flowers in velvet and fr.ze on satin, j with long angel sleeves of the crepede chine | falling over the tight ones, with a trimming of gold on the wrists. I Very low cut dresses with rounded shoulders are much worn now for evening toilettes. Close fitting bodices, moulding the figure, are coming much into favor. A new device is to fasten such bodices either behind on the shoulder or under the arm, and to conceal the fastening by trimming. Women whose figures are finely and harmoniously developed may effectively wear such a garment; but the, majority of women can ill afford to dispense with the draperies which conceal the short comings of mother Nature. Jewels are Dot !woni with tea-gowns, and the elegance of the toddies d'intineur is to be found in its sugges tion of restful simplicity and flowing ease of line. - | '■■■•'■ Paris, December 24, jgSo.,

The Retaining Offiokr soppl'es the names of the Upper Ashbar too, Ashbnrton end Monnt Somera Lioena- Ing Cbmmlttees elected for the enaalng jear. The notion foi the general rate will nil bo bb t oat by next meeting. The mm of £140 4) 3d on aooount of this rate ana already been paid to the Council's account. A latter from Mt Parnell, en olouing a copy of a letter received from Mr John Holmes cffarlng terms of settle ment in reference to his claim for com pensation will be a aabjeot for tbli GoanoU's deliberation to-day. The Secretary of Ohrlstohuroh Charitable Aid Bjard forwards for the OoanoH'a informa tion a o"py of a resolution passed by the Board, to the effect that acton will ba to recover outstanding contributions from local authorities unless paid on or before Bth ioat. engineer's bbpobt. t - The Engineer reported »s followa :— Plains Water Supply: The various races ia this district ar», on the whole, very well supplied, and the main race from the river Rakaia, at Acton, is already doing good service by supplying the lower portion of Eio and E2 races. I have marked off the autho rized connectfon between Ei and Bi races,'. near Hogg's whare, on the only feasible route, and the contractor has made the fords on that section. You will observe from annexed letter that Mr Allan now. declines to undertake the maintenance, or payment of rates, as appli cable to certain sections on that length, and it. will be for.the Council to consider how these prospective charges are to be met. If this connection is to be departed from the auxiliary ■ service will be of very limited extent. The settlers at Lower Acton have commenced) to make the hew races in the vicinity of Ihe xiyer. road, but on lines so objectionable that I should decline to recognise the work, For a considerable distance at the commencement line' race is run in zig-zag fashion along field fences, against the natural fall, in deep narrow guts which could never be maintained as open races. The Wakanui creek has, of late, be come very low, but as yet there is a sufficient supply for the Wakanui Flat district, and auxiliary race towards --eafield. crhis is a better condition of things than existed two years ago when the creek was absolutely dry for a few weeks. The Rangers have instruc tions to clear out, at owners' expense, some defective races, which are to some, extent retarding the supply.

Ashburton-Rangitata Water Supply: This service is fairly good throughout.' With the exception of the Willowby extension race which has a shott distance at the lower end unsupplied, as has also part of the T race in Cracioft district, the water is just reaching the end of the other races. As is usual at this stas n the supplies from Limestone creek and Hinds Gorge have almost given in, and what supply there is is distributed in the immediate vicinity of these sources. The ford on Anaraa- Hinds road has now been completed.

Mount Somers District: This district has a fair supply throughout.

Tampering: Rangers' reports and corre spondence in connection with various cases of tampering are hereto appended, in order that the Councl may coesider as to how they are to be severally dealt with, These cases are all of recent occurrence.

County Bridges: Minor repairs have been executed during the month, as became neces sary. I expect materials for fencing north approach Rangitata bridge on the ground in a few days, when the work of erection will be commenced. I have to report that Taylor's stream bridge is now becoming much en dangered through the forest of broom which is springing up against it from ihe riverbed. In the event of fiiethe bridge could hardly be preserved, and as a precaution, a width of two chains of the broom on each aide of the bridge should be cleared. BAKSia. AUXILIARY SUPPLY Me W. L Altar, of South fUkala, wrote otsting that ho wonld sllow the Oonuoil to take the. now rnoe throigh his land «nd that of the Company he repre sented, on condition that the Oiuncll agreed to maintain the race and exempt him from water charges In respect to It. He would aho require the Ootmoll to pat up gates where necessary. He pointed out that he would derive no benefit from the race. The Engineer's raport on tbla subject was read, After dleonsslon It was arranged that Mr Ooster should interview Mr Allan and report to the Goanotl at next meeting. •RACKS AT LOWER AOTON With respect to the report of the Engineer th»t the settlers In Lower Ac tin diotrict were not constructing dis tributing raoes properly, Mr Ooater was asked to enquire apd report.
