A Fair Widow.
Glad\s, La<ly Loa^dale, the fairest widow in all England, and very nearly the poorest for her rank, looked " supsrbly beautiful in her dark elms and short cc-al skin dolman trimmed with sable taile, nnd a small brown hat," at the Gfo venoi exhibition. Ami "till another beauty was the observed of all observers, Lady Archibald Campbell, the Eosalind in the open-air performances of " Aa You Like It," at Coombe Lodge, last summer. Sha, too, wore b becoming toilet, consisting of a long coal of vetorty mouse-color celled with wide band"! of fur, and having a (le°p and high collar of tho catne, which neavly cut off her shell pink ems. On her head, with its short curled hnir — happy the woman able to wear her hair ohort and curly, cries Fashion— was a head-gear resembling a kind of bag of dark silk, something like the old-fashioned nightcaps snen in pictures, with a sort of jelly point hanging down on her left shoulder.
