"Mourning Apparel." Willing to bear our testimony against the more than useless custom of wearing mourning apparel, we know not how to do it better at present, than by endorsing the sentiments of the article copied. We wish to touch the subject gently, and therefore refrain from saying more at this time, hoping however, that certain of our friends who agree with us in these sentiments, and who have examined the subject more thoroughly than we have, will take an early opportunity to express their views through the columns of the Telegraph.
