It is, indeed, from the heavenly regions that these enchanting productions, variegated with a thousand colours, transparent and light, like the wings of the butterfly, would appear to have descended. Happy women of the earth ! I cannot too often repeat it to you : when you throw over your beautiful shoulders these aerial scarfs, think sometimes of the poor girls who have made them. They are of your own sex, your own country, and your own religion ; and they are often in want of the necessaries ...of life, after having provided you with superfluities ! Not far from these treasures, the Lyonnese have exhibited an assortment of more than 200 pieces of cravats, neckerchiefs, and handkerchiefs more durable and vulgar, but of which immense quan- tities are produced, and in the manufacture of which the Lyonnese industry has made considerable progress in the last fifteen years. Lyons has not excited less public attention by her three stalls of black plush for men's hats. Hats, such as are worn now-a-days in the shape of perfectly ridiculous cylinders, are very ugly, ungraceful, and incommodious ; but they are not too dear ; and it is owing to the improvements introduced in the man- ufacture of plush that we are enabled to renew them often and have them clean, until we wait the time that a form more rational and appropriate to our habits be given to them.
