An exchange tells us that the latest caprice in note paper fashions is that the upper right band corner of the sheet should appear to turn over and be transfixed by a gilt pin to bold it down. On this turn-over piece is placed the address, generally iu old English characters. The envelope has also a pin inserted at the seal, which has sometimes a shadow below It. So exactly imitated are both pin and shadow that one is easily deceived by them. We don't knew whether Button A Hamilton have got in this style yet, but if they haven't they will bare in a few days, for the Central Bookstore is recognised headquarters for all that is new and nobby in elegant stationery.
