ULSTER
HOUSE, CONDUIT STREET. — It were superfluous, of crurse, to point out that this well-known establish ment of Mr. Benjamin's contains at all seasons every ..". of the newest and most approved description of apparel, suitable oth for
gentlemen and the gentler sex. But certain of his novelties deserve special mention. Among the latest wonders of the tailor's art, as here practised, is the Universal,” which may well be described as “no end of a coat."...The cloth is all wool, soft, warm, and waterproof–the last epithet applies to all the cloths used here.
It is furnished with a large
hººd, has numerous and capacious prekets, and is provided likewise with a gun-flap, which may be taken off when no longer needed. It is equally adapted for riding, driving. or walking, and is so built that the wearer when on horseback may, by a skilful arrangement of straps and buttons, convert it into both coat and leggings. For this purpose the skirt is in three pieces, the centre one of which can be turned up inside, while the two outer ones fasten round the legs below the knee, leaving ample room for the play of those limbs. It is scarcely possible to imagine a class of coat more suitable for the sportsman. Another novelty is, a new kind of shooting coat with expanding pleats, so
arranged that, no matter how j, the body and arms enjoy perfect freedom of action. It looks like an improved Norfolk jacket, and is
made to fit the figure admirably, so that it is sightly as well as useful. Another. and indeed the latest, of Mr. Benjamin's novelties, is the Rink Suit, intended for ladies, chiefly when skating, but available also for rough cross-country walking. This comprises an underskirt or petti
Soºt; an overskirt, ºpening both back and front; a jacket fitting tight behind, but pleated in front; a pair of gaiters, and a hat to match. It forms, indeed, a complete outer costume, and we should judge it would stand rough wear admirably. Above this may also be worn an over-jacket, with muff to match, when the intensity of the cold makes such additions desirable. Other habits, polonaises, ladies' Ulsters, with hood and ..". contrived that the wearer may detach them if she chooses—and jackets with, if required, a skirt long enough for riding, and that may be looped up and formed into a pannier for walking. All these coats and costumes can be made in such different materials, as homespuns, cheviots, &c., and of a thickness suitable either ...to our temperate climate, or the severer cold of a Russian or
Canadian winter. We are not prepared to say if the garment known of all men as an Upper Benjamin is indebted for its name to the proprietor
certainly those who need such an article might do woºse than test Mr. Benjamin's skill and ingenuity as a builder of coats. of Ulster House, but

JACKETS.—Among
the *amº.easy contrivance, when required, can be transformed into skirts of a walking length—a great boon for travelling: . Now that tailor
Tade costumes are so much the fashion, ladies will find the exquisitely fitting cloth and homespun suits and jackets made by Mr. Benjamin Particularly tempting. The same firm has a speciality for well-cut olºnaises of light grey cloth with velvet revers and pockets, as well as for both ladies' Ulsters and travelling cloaks, and every variety of ladies’ jackets. Vicugna and other warm cloths are stili as much worn as in former years, and are now exclusively trimmed with fur; and accom

POLONAISE
WALKING
DRESS. —That
inde
fatigable caterer for the ladies, Mr. BENJAMIN, of Ulster House, Conduit Street, is again in the field with an Improved Polonaise Walking Dress.
Though in view of the recent torrid weather it seems almost
out of place to speak of dresses made of woollen materials at all, yet it is not always May, and even in spring and summer the chilly and damp . of our changeable climate often make a woollen dress of light colour and stylish make at the same time seasonable and comfortable.
Both these qualifications can be united in the new polonaise suit which has been brought under our notice.
It is composed of a
double-breasted
polonaise, with a very artistically draped pannier tunic, to be worn over a plain skirt of the same material as the polonaise, both being finished off with several rows of stitching at the edge. To these may be added if desired, a double-breasted jacket ſor out-door wear in wet or cold weather. The series of garments are cut and made up with the neat ness and accuracy of *:::::::::: which we have always found to be the characteristics of Mr. BENJAMIN's conſections for ladies; neither has he forgotten to add the many convenient pockets hitherto reserved for the use of the sterner sex. o suit all requirements in the way of make of material and colour, Mr BeNJAMIN shows an extremely large assortment of homespuns, cheviots, and tweeds, manufactured of every imaginable tint, ranging from Öxford ey to the lightest stone colour, and including the heather, granite, ...?'. shades so much worn at the present time. Some vicuna cloth in this collection, made from un dyed wool of the animal, whence it takes its name, is very effective from its pale golden tint; while the softness of its texture makes it most suitable for draping into these polonaise tunics.-Queen, May 2, 1874.
