Never follo-w out in every particular tho dic tates of fashion. It is well to bear iu mind that which becomes Mary may look very badly on Susan. Form, compexion and general style of person should bo consulted before se- leetin a costume. All who de9iro to make dress an art should save thwr attention to tho harmonizing of colors. There are shades that t'-nd to mar a certain type of beauty, while tome other tiiii might greatly add to it The outlines of aress must never bo overlooked. and in this important feature of the toilet an artistic tatde is very quick to observe the aliirhtest defect Individuality should never be forgotten.

What Houses Bring Island. ii Manhattan New York Letter. One of tho surprising thing in New York U that, 1:0 matter how many new houses are built, occupants are easily found for all Homo 2.5(A) now buildings wore put up Uut year, and very few owners have had any difficulty in getting tenant. The same rato of building in atill going on, and all lie builders are confident about getting tenants just as soou-as thoy are ready for them. Tho steady demand for ad ditional dwelling-spaoo means, of course, a steady increase of population. If another census were now taken it would, probably, be found that tho present total is not not much short of 1,400,000. Does any ono want to know bow rontx run in New York? Well, that depends. For whole houses the figures may bo said to vary from 3700 up to 87,001). I mean dwellings, of course. There are quiet and not un- ploanaiit parts of the city whero a pretty fair tlireo-btory bonne, of ten or twelve rooms, mav bo bad at 7U0 to S'JOl). They are not fashionable parts, but they do very well for a family of moderate means. A finall family can biro half of 0110 of these houses for S 4O0 or 8500, and livo pretty comfortably. Tho next grade is from Sl.oouto $1,500, with many variations lxitwoeu. Hundreds or good brown- Btono housef, of inodium size, on the cross streets abovo Union squaro, and ilwtwoon Third and l'.ighth avenues, are rented under the latter figuro. They would not pass as f ashionablo, but they aro in good neighlor- boods, which no ono uood be ashamed to live in. The averau rout of bouso of this kind may bo set down at $1,'J00. They are in greater demand than any other kind, and con hoquuntly not often vacant Passing 11,500 tho next graao inciuuos a large Tanety, rang ing from $1,800 to S:',,000. A great many houses or this class aro occu- I)ied as boarding houaea. They aro - usually arge, with eighteen or twenty rooms in each, and many aro quite stylish in appearance. As a rule, landlords don't like to rent to boarding-house keepers, though some of theeo are just as good pay as private families. Tho boiiHOs abovo s:f,000 are mostly on Fifth or Madison avenues, or very near either. On Fil th avenue tho ligure sometimes goes as high as $7,000, but the average may be said to bo about $5,000. Many of tbo more expensive bouses aro rented with furniture, for which there is an additional rent of about one-third the rent of the bouse, bo that an unfurnished houso at $5,000 is worth nearly $7,000 if fur nished. On parts of tho aveuuo suitable for business tho rents aro higher. Tho residence of the late Robert L Stuart, at the corner of Twentieth street, for instance, is rented to a furniture nrm for sw.txht a year, and another house near bv is rented for 115.000. Casos of this kind, however, aro exceptiouaL As to flats, which are now to bo round au over jsew York, and on Fifth avenue as well as the lei;a jntious Btroots, tne scaio or renwis even er than in tho case of private houses. In Harlem, for instance, a good flat of six or seven rooms can bo bad for $30 a month, and the ratos range from that up to 13,000 a year, the latter ligure being reachod only in choice neighborhoods below central para, uoou Hats of eight to ten rooms along tho central line of the city say between Fourth aud Seventh avenues bring from $800 to $1,200 a vear. One difficulty that people havo in rent- uig Hats is the chronic objection of landlords to children. They won't admit children at all if they can help it, their reasons being, first, that they aro destructive to property, anu sec ond, that they are annoying to other tenants. Hut mauy owners ot single nouses mage tho same objection. A lady told mo a few days ago of a caso in point She was house hunting, and she called on tho owner of a house that she thought would suit her. His firat aucstion was: "Any cbaldren?" "les." How many?" "Five." Fivo children! That is a verv large family. . I prefer a small one. Tho family now in the hou.se consists of a gen tleman and his wile anu auog. -unueeu; men the dog is one of the family?" "Well, I would rather have one dog in tho house than five chil dren." "Good day, sir," said - the- lady, -I might suppose from your manner that there was some affinity." It is a common thing with women who go iWisa-hunting to say that thoy have only two ciigllren when they really liava five or six, because they know that if they ac knowledge the whole number they would be refused nine times iu ten. hcrond-Uand Furniture Often X re ferable to Xw, - London Queen. Tho best furniture is not, by any means, al ways tho dearest at tho outset, for purchasers must always pay an increased price 'for tho latest fashion and for ornamentation, as . well as (sometimes oven more than) for real excel lence of workmanship, which is the only ex penditure that can be defended on economical grounds. There is a striking example of tho cost of following tho fashion in the present prices given for old f urnituro. A few years ago within the memory of moat of us, old oak chests and chairs could be picked up for the worth of the wood they were made of. At that time everv ono who had money to spend, spent it on gilt and ormulu and gaudy damask; and, since the old furniture was well made, it was very cheap. But now a rage has arisen for old oak. Fancy prices are askod and given for things that tweutv years ago went for an old song, and ouly the wealthy can now afford to eit on the chairs that our grand-mothers rele gated to the back parlor. Second-hand furniture is so often prefera ble to new. The warps and started joints are plainly visible if bad wood has been some time in use; no more warping will take place, and the price, in comparison with that of new, is often much less than the amount, of wear and tear would indicate. Thero aro circumstances that give to old furniture a distinct excellence quite apart from the existance of a fashion for buying it It was made by hand; generally tho same man worked on each piece throughout, acquiring a epecial interest iu every detail, and thinking no trouble to great to make it more verfeet It was sold oftenest in tho immediate neighborhood, perhaps to friend of tho maker, ana we V J.1 A lUia va OA mav wen Deiieve vnai. iu 1010 - . . . . , -1 . , x . .3 4V.A special pains wouia do taseu 10 piuum ijjd best possible value for the money.

Ye do not even wish our furniture to last too long. It has almost as littlo individuality to the purchaser as the maker. Much more modern furniture is cut bv machinery. One makes legs aud a second backs, while a third glues them together for a chair and passes it on to a iourm, wiiu iuu the seat. Often it passes through eight or ten pair of hands before it is ready for sale. Tne result is a great many chairs, all about equally goa l, but none very good. It is scarcely pos sible to feel deep interest in tho tenth part of a dozen of chairs, except in so far as they are a means of subsistence, and yet this wholesale .manufacture lowers prices so that manufact urers on a smaller scale are aimost unveii on the field. - Miss Ulary Dickcnts.

William lou. lVI:o was Killed by JcffC IaviH. Goorge Alfred Towuaond '. One of tho officers dnring the war, about whom no montion is made of a monument or a vindication, Gen. William Nelson, is riniiig into coiibideratiou, I think, in the slow round of justice. Ho was fchot dead, it w'ill be re membered, by Gen. Jeft C. Davis. Ono of Nelson's officers recently said to 1110: "That man was the first positive spirit of the north in the west, occupying the same position i: Kentucky that Nathaniel Lyon did in Missouri It is the greater to his credit that like G;:. Thomas he was southern-born man. He was of largo size, weighing in tho nc-igh-bood of 300 pounds, and like some heavy meii, impetuous and inflammable but bo had tho moral courage so rare, indeed almost unknown, at tho outbreak of the war, on tho union nido. Thero was no nonsense about him. When be ar rested the most prominent robel (jfeer at M iys ville and a writ of habeas coi j i.-s was gotten out. Kelson on his steamboat paid no attention to it, and when the prisoner turned to him and said: 'By what law do you arrest meV he re pliedBy the law of thovie bayonet, sir,' point ing to his lines upon the wharf, 'and becauso you are a d d scoundrel.' He believed in foraging on the enemy and saving tho govern ment money, and wbawer the orders were, as soon as he got a day's march out ho would toll his commissaries to look out for the govern ment's pocket and let rebels feed the troops-. He insisted on good food being furnished to himself and his soldieis. and any commissary who did not do it was put under arrest, and it was a common sight to see him walk riahr info the ovens of the troops and look - ar the bnd and see what they bad to eat. He thonght h. had found through his detectivos that Davis was not energetically iloinz bis .'u'v iu report ing to him tho numb-r of men and arms to lo relied upon to defend Louisville from Bragg' "invasion. Davis reported that be thought thero were 'about' so many men Nelson, incensed at any man fooling away i is time in Hv.cii mi emergency, thundered bis c:irse upon bis sub ordinate, and wben t'.ie latter protested Kelson had no way of expressing himself but to slap him in the faco. For this, a little later, he suf fered his death, but the uoMiers when they i e came acquainted with him had the n;r?t thorough confidence in him, and to this d iy 'Bull' Nelson's men put him by the side of Thomas, Sheridan and Grant" Some KeminlSfeures.

Looking at the sub-treasury yesterday, with its iron-barred windows, containing perhaps a hundrod millions of cool dollars lying the.o snug yet humble, as money always looks ex cept when being spent, I reflected that it w is once the custom house and was built in ?; son's, Yan Eu:on's, aud Tyler's a i:u n;.s ; 1 tions, commenced in &'A aud uuiiii'vl in i: '.

A ticklish point with Gambetta was, how to obtain the support of the Bismarckian press during the struggle. He was afraid if the Ber. lin newspapers ranged themselves against the Republicans, that the peasants would be fright enen at the trosDO-;t of a war, and would vote with the Elysce. A lady whom the tribune often consulted advised lum to mane uie ic- quaintanco of some , persona whom she had reason for suspoctuig were in Bismarck's secret service, and to talk to them aa if in low spirits. The impression should bw produced at Berlin that Gambetta was not at all sanguine, but that ho thought an air of confidence good policy. TbU waa done. To Gambetta'a extrema satisfaction, and it may bo added surprise, The North Berlin Gazette, lhe Ta"blatt, The National Gazette aud The Cologuo Gazette all attacked the Ducal party. They professed to see in it the hvd hope of Jultra- -liiontauism, and aaid that if it sneoeodod, Uer lnauv would feel menaced.
