MANURRADE.—A nother of these heterogeneous
amusements took place at the Argyll-Rooms last night, and
was attended with the same medley of persona, both in and out
of Character, as usual ; the latter class greatly predominating,
on whichever side. of the walls they might find themselves. It
also exhibited the same. proof of the exotic or anti-Anglican
nature of this species of diversion, as evinced in the forced mirth
and constrained address of the maskers, and the absence of all
intellectual enjoyment derived from their efforts (when they
made any) nt mutual entertainment. Calculating, however, as
experience had taught them to do, upon the want of humour
amongst the guests themselves, the proprietors endeavoured, so
far as they could, to remedy this defect, by sprinkling through
the rooms a number of professional those may be so
called whose wit lay in their heels—in the shape of opera
dancers, rope dancers, clowns, harlequins, and others, who,
with the aid of abundance of lively music in all quarters, con-
trived to impart a kind of physical animation (pour ainsi dire)
to the scene, which it would otherwise have wanted. It would
be useless to give any further description of an affair so similar
to moat of those which preceded it.
