whereon you are bidden to dinner on a certain day usually at the hour of 6 or half after At tired in dress suit and white neck tie you are ex pected to present yourself at the front door at precisely the designated hour when you wilt probably find your modest for a voiture de remise even is not demanded by etiquette in deed I have seen the lord chief justice of Eng land go to a dinner party in a hansom cab mixed up with a motley line of gorgeous em blazoned cabriolets and heavy family coaches A stalwart footman in oppressive livery swings wide the door and as you enter another foot man with equally oppressive livery conducts you to a which is not seldom my libra where you leave your surtout and hat and cane and give a final brush to locks and whis kers If there bejadies of the party they are usually provided with separate rooms join ing them on the staircase vou ascend to the drawing room just at the door of which is sta tioned a third footman with a trebly oppressive lively To this august being you whisper your name to be shocked by hearing it usu ally pronounced distressingly wrong and twist ed into something unheard through thestate Jy apartment the vista of which opens through the doorway to your view Here is my lord faultlessly dressed who advances easily and natu rally grasps your hand with a brief word of welcome and leads you forward to a balloon like being all silk and lace to whom he presents you as to the couutess of She is the central figure of a bevy of ladies and you are in turn introduced with very little formality to the Lady Angelina and the Lady Gertrude' and the Lady Constance until the blooming family is exhausted Here and there in little knots about the room the guests are standing chatting qui etly and easily together You recognize the archbishop and ambassador the eminent histo rian and the parliamentary leader judges and literati and men and women of fashion if a prince of the blood is present he mingles freely with the rest although narrow observation de tects a trifle more deference paid to him than to the other guests In a very few for all is promptness in the aristocratic dinner is an nounced by the burly rubicund knee brecched butler whose apoplectic countenance looms for an instant only in the doorway As easily and naturally as possible the company proceeds to the dining room by couples the hostess and most distinguished guest leading the way You cannot but be struck by the apartment into which you are thus introduced The rich som berness and stateliness of it bespeaks age and dignity you think of it as a place where people of rank sat over their wine a hundred or two years ago The oaken wainscoting floor and ceiling is dark and shiny and gives a mellowed sober coloring to the big room Huge oaken sideboards wonders of intricate carving are loaded down with an astonishing wealth of gold and silver plate so massive and antique and deftly chased as to speak of long accumulated heir looms and a descent from long gone days The curtains are heavy damask and fall in' ponder ous folds to the floor the chandeliers are im mense but somehow seem only half to light the apartment there are a few pictures hanging from the high plainly and darkly tinted walls portraits most often of noble ancestors painted by no one'less famous than Lely and Kneller and liolbein and Sir John Reynolds and Lawrence and Gainsborough The ornamentation is as heavy and substantial as is the baron of beef which is about to be brought smoking to the ta ble and as costly as the Yquem and Johannis berger which will ere long sparkle in your little group of vari colored glasses When all are at last perhaps 15 or 20 in all ladies sandwiched carefully between gentle men and each according to the various courses succeed each other with commendable the soup and the fish the game and roast the sweets and fruit ending with port and and conversation flows with equal ease and apparent absence of anv effort or conscious ness ot social distinctions There are the liveried lackeys stately and somber and long faced be hind the chairs but almost always they are the only solemn folk in the room You hear the peo ple "chatting rench on your left and English on your right the company grows more loquacious yet never boisterous with every course there is throughout the best ot good breeding that which instantly puts the least notable guest at his case and keeps him so from beginning to end The topics talked about are very much what on would bear at an evening party or at the Carlton or Brooks's You find the hostess quite familiar with the politics of the day and the host's daughters very much interested in the last book of Matthew Arnold or even Herbert Spencer there is apparently among all a live ly and genuine internet in all that is going on in the world When the fruits and nuts have been duly discussed the hostess rises and repairs to the "drawing room followed by the other ladies while the gentlemen remain perhaps 15 or 20 minutes it the dinner is a formal one or longer if it is not and then rejoin the fair when coffee is served Soon the guests invited to the evening begin to arrive and keep coming and going all the evening till after midnight Re freshment is provided in the lunch room usually cake and wine only whither any one may repair when he or she so chooses the apartments are all open you can wander where you like and either walk about in the drawingroom where the merry body of the guests are chatting stand ing in groups or have a cozy confab with a friend in the library or the smaller rooms off the entries In a word the English aristocracy aim to do no more in giving entertainments than does the refined and wealthy American host that is to make his guests comfortable and so arrange that they shall carry away a pleasant impression Bow Bells New Hartford ine Meadow' armington QPRINGIELD ENGLISH AND CLASS KJ I JICAL INSTITUTE Spring Term begins on Monday next eb 10

beaten in the House ot Commons Mr Gladstone had a great dinner party at his residence in Carlton house terrace and afterward one of those select aristocratic receptions known here as The right honorable gentleman could hardly have left the House on Wednesday morning be fore 3 and at 6 lie had to be ready to receive under his hospitable roof no less a per sonage than Alfred duke of Edinburgh the second son ot Queen Victoria The premier lives in a spacious substantial and rather ancient mansion fronting the Carlton house where the prince regent used to hold his orgies with his brothers of York and Cumberland Beau Brum inell and the rest of the court favorites of that dissolute period patrician repose now rests upon the quarter which is just aside from the bustle of Pall Mall and St and Mr Gladstone may boast of having dukes and earls on every side of him A cabinet dinner is the atnbirioii of every young sprout of the aristocracy or of the foreign legations who finds himself involved in the gay whirlpool of London society even to be invited to the which always fol lows the formal dinner in the upper circles is a distinction craved by voting ladies of most re spectable family and the most finished education The fashion of a dinner to which the select few are hidden followed by a reception to which from fifty to a hundred arc invited is one so far as I know confined to Rondon West end and is a very shrewd device for paying off social scores Of course the dinner party is the creme de la creme die most distinguished guests are hon ored by it Then the reception follows to clear off the account with the world in general I know that a better impression could be given of society among the upper ten thousand than by jotting down a few notes descriptive of these at once eminently formal and eminently social occasions or it "is a fact which extended observation only tends to confirm that the Eng lish aristocracy are at once the most punctilious and the least stilted of all aristocracies You are ushered into my presence by a footman six feet two high with portentous calves a head lit erally pasted with a stratum of powder a livery which 1 defy any one to see for the first time without a mingled sensation of awe and amuse ment and with a step as stately as the biggest cathedral beadle (I imagine" a more striking comparison) in rance But when this awful creature has vanished and closed the door and you find yourself face to face with my lord you are surprised and refreshed to observe that he is perfectly simple and amiable in manner dressed with an apparently studied plainness succeeds without effort in putting you quite at your ease and enters as glibly into conversation as if he were your brother in law or your credit or As the man in would say is no biggod nonsense about what ever It is much the same at dinner parties that take place nightly at this season by the dozen west of Trafalgar square There is very little difference too between a dinner party given by a prime minister and one given by a noble earl or a right honorable baronet only the former have an official color and nre almost always giv en with some public aim Now it is to receive a royal prince now some illustrious foreign states man again to gather round the groaning board the party chiefs for intimate exchange of ideas then to the patriarchs of the church But the salient characteristics of the aristocratic London dinner are much the same whether the host be a cabinet minister or the titled dispenser of a priv ate substantial and profuse feast Let me fake it

color its form which is that of a cup its sur face convex voluted pierced with innumerable small orifices the concave part of which presents canals of much greater diameter which are pro longed to the exterior surface in such a manner that the summit is nearly always pierced through out in many places This sponge is sometimes blanched by the aid of caustic alkalies but this preparation not only helps to destroy its text ure but also changes its color This sponge is specially employed for the toilet aud its price is high Specimens which are round shaped large and soft sometimes produce very high prices The fine sponge of the Grecian archipelago is scarcely distinguishable from that of Syria either before or after being cleansed neverthe less it is weightier its texture is not so fine and the holes with which it is pierced are at once larger and less in number It is nearly of the same country as the former in fact the fishing for it extends along the Syrian as well as the littoral zone of the Archipelago and Barbary The fine hard sponge called Greek is less sought for than either of the preceding it is however most useful for domestic and for certain indus trial purposes Its mass is irregular it is of a yellowish color it is hard and compact and pierced with small holes The white sponge of Syria called Venetian is esteemed for its light ness the regularity of its form and its solidity In its rough state it is brown in color and of a fine texture compact and firm When cleansed it becomes flaxen colored and of a looser text ure The orifice of the great channels which traverse it are rough and bristlv The brown Barbary sponge when first taken out of the water presents itself as an elongated flattened bodv gelatinous and charged with blackish mud It is then hard heavy coarse and of a reddish color When well washed in water it be comes round in shape still remaining heavy and reddish It presents many gaps the intervale of which are occupied by a sinuous and tenacious net work It is valuable for domestic use be cause of the facility with which it absorbs water and its great strength Other sorts of sponges are very abundant The blonde sponge of the Archipelago often confounded with the Vene tian the hard Barbary sponge called gelina which only comes by accident into rance the Salonica sponge is of middling quality finally the Bahama sponge front
