W."--Eglantine pattern sent on 22d. "J. H."--Sent the Talma ornaments on 23d. "Miss H. A. J."--Happy to hear that you are pleased with the Rapp pen.

D."--Much obliged for the cuff pattern. It is a very pretty design, and prettily executed; but cuffs are not used here now. Flowing undersleeves are now all the rage. We publish the following answer to an inquiry, by "H. E. B.," in our January number. We are much obliged to the correspondent who sent it:-- "BATH, _January_ 2, 1854. "MR. GODEY: Muslin embroideries should be squeezed through a warm suds until perfectly clean, then rinsed and dried. Then make your starch, have it thick, a little blue, and use it warm. Dip the article, clap it, and work every thread out smooth with your fingers until dry; then lay it on a flannel, and pass an iron over the wrong side. "Embroidery cleaned in this way will look as clear as those imported. A SUBSCRIBER."
