Synopsis:

It is a matter of amusement to an uninterested spectator like myself, to Observe the influence fashion has on the dress and deportment of its votaries, and how very quick they fly from one extreme to the other. A few years since the rage was, - very high crowned hats with very narrow brims, tight neckcloth, tight coat, tight jacket, tight small-clothes, and shoes loaded with enormous silver buckles the hair craped, plaited, queued, and powdered in short, an air of the greatest spruceness and tightness diffused over the whole person.
