CORK, MAY 15.

CORK PIC-TICS.

ON Thursday last, a Pic-nic dinner was colleaed
and enjoyed by a number of Ladies and Gentlemen
of this city, who celebrated this fore on the banks
of the river Lee, about a quarter of a mile above
Sunday's-Well. As previous arrangements had
been made, the better part of the morning was
occupied in the conveyance of hampers, baskets,
tables, forms, &c. &c. and never was old CH ARQN
more adively employed, than the ferrymen who
ply between the Dyke-walk and the Tea-house.—
About five o'clock the company sat down to dinner,
to the number of sikty-four, when a general attack
commenced. Pies, puddings, pasties, rumps and
sir-loins of beef, quarters of lamb and mutton,
(the young and the aged), all were involved in one
common fate, which was not a little accelerated by
the keen and salubrious air of the refreshing scene.
That the sensualities of taste might not be alone
gratified, the band of the 6tl regiment attended,
and to the more solid gratification of the Epicu-
rean scene, lent the divine assistance of harmony
and its magical impositions. After the Ladies
had retired to tkc dancing room of Sunday's_Well
house, the bottle went chearfully round for about
three quarters of an hour, and the Gentlemen rose
from table and joined their fair associates. Country
dances then commenced, which, with the intervals
allowed .for sipping tea, coffee, and other refresh-
ments, occupied the fleeting hours until twelve
o'clock, when the tables were hastily covered, and
a good supper succeeded ; after which, we believe,
there were but two more dances, and the company
returned en masse along the Dyke, between two and
three o'clock.
