The Princess Royal.

In the Hohenzollern Museum at Berlin there was recently deposited a marble bust of the German Empress, it was universally acknowledged to be a striking likeness, and the execution of the work is excellent. It is now announced that the bust is from the chisel of the Crown Princess, who had already distinguished herself, in many exhibitions, by her paintings and drawing. By mistake, the Empress Augusta's bust has been attributed to the Crown Prince of Germany. It is really the work of hits wife, the English Princess, wlio has been doiiig for German art industry what her father, Prince Albert,' did for that of

England,

Tailor Dressmaking. TaUorwade clot bosses, witji trimmings of

frogs and military braid, aro to bo tho rage this spring, and a fashionable tailor whose rooms ara not far from Sixth avenue and Twentyeighth street, has more orders than ho can fill for Easter gowns. Of course, in a costume of this kind, the cut is everything, and female dressmakers have been pronounced absolutely incapable of giving the requisite style to the closely fitting coats and jackets that will be worn. The Newmarket coat, a garment familiar to English sporting men, .and suggestive of the racecourse and the ring, is declared _ to be in the highest degree "knowing" for ladies morning wear, and the above-mentioned tailor is taking orders for them every day, What next ?-N.Y.
