RECOLLECTIONS OF THE STAT.
BALL.

Whatever mign thave been the motive which led to the choice
of a period so heavy and unpieturesigue in costume as that of
George 11. for the state ball, the success of the experiment, bold
and hazardous as it was, far exceeded any reasonable expectation.
The English are said not to understand masquerading. They have
one character, which they fill well, but they cannot pass out of
that character and enter into others at pleasure. The exhibition
at Buckingham Palace on Friday, however, went far to show that
not even the French themselves could excel them in the aptitude
with which they adopted the costume of a defunct age, and ren.
siered that which at first sight appears amost grotesque capable of
the most graceful varieties. The contrast between the costume
of the present day and that chosen by her Majesty for the
state ball is so decided, and the manners incident on
those costumes are so totally different, that the success
of the experiment is the more remarkable. But whether that
success would have been so great had the costume been confined to
the Court of George 11. alone is extremely doubtful. Many of the
noble masqueraders who figured in the English dresses of the
period looked well no doubt; but much of the picturesqueness and
variety of the scene was contributed by the dresses of the French
cotemporary Court, and those of the Highlanders attached to the
Pretender. To the ladies, as usual, the chief praise must be given.
Almost without exception they looked remarkably well ; and,
what was infinitely more difficult, they very generally fell with a
natural ease into thp gait and courtly stateliness of the period.
With the gentlemen it was often different. They looked well the
characters they represented, and their costume was perfect, but they
failed to catch the peculiar manners of the time, and there-
fore did not so completely realise the picture. Perhaps the most
amusing part of the scene was to notice the singular effect which
the different costumes had in changing the character and general
appearance of those who would be among the most clis.inguished in
modern society for elegance and grace. Some of those upon whom
one would have fixed as being the most likely, from their fine
forms and intellectual countenances, to set off the peculiar dress,
so associated in our minds with the greatest names in war, politics,
and literature, turned out the most insignificant and disappointing;
while others, whom one would have expected only to look at and to
laugh at, proved very respectable courtiers or very formidable war-
riors. It is not often that great warriors and statesmen, in this
age of formal plainness, can be caught wandering from the range
to whin their caution limits them; but if the Royal will was
potent enough to induce them for the amusement of the hour to
don such unwonted habiliments, it is worth while to ob-
serve how those who, perhaps, do not entertnin the
highest opinion of the wisdom of their great.grandfathers ac-
quitted themselves in those ancestors' clothes. The most promi.
nent men were, however, not those who attempted this kind of
hereditary personation. And perhaps we need not be so surprised
at this when we reflect how rarely great men transmit their talents
as well as their titles to their posterity. More interest was felt
about the living Sir Robert Peel, or Lord Palmerston, or Lord
John Russell, than in the descendants of the Pelhams, the She].
hurries, or any of those who, during the last century, have guided
public affairs. Sir Robert Peel, though in a comparatively plain
Court dress of the period, looked remarkably stately ; he might
have stepped out of the frame of a cotemporary portrait. Lord
Palmerston, strange to say, seemed to shrink under his ample
costume; while Lord John Russell looked twice his ordinary size
in the full wig and capacious coat. We pass over a multitude of
really excellent specimens of costume, which were inter-
esting only because so remarkably striking and correct,
to enumerate a few which were interesting on ac_
court of their wearers. The Duke of Wellington ap.
peared in a field marshal's uniform of the era. It is said to have
been intended for that of the Duke of Cumberland, but there was
nothing particular to distinguish it. As if to show how unfavour.
able the peculiar style of costume was to some of those in whom
the most interest was felt, this dress of the Duke so utterly dis.
guided him that, but for his well-known features, recognition would
have been impossible. Almost any close-fitting military dress of
the period would have been preferable. As it was, the scarlet coat
hung loosely about him, and the nether garments were so ample as
to give him a much more aged and shrunken appearance than he
would have had in a more becoming costume. On the other hand,
the Earl of Cardigan excited no little attention. He wore the uni.
form of the 11th Dragoons at Culloden, and with the costume,
which became him extremely, he contrived to assume the
portentous bearing and the true jack-boot stride and swagger.
The Marquis of Londonderry, also, upon the same prin.
ciple, looked very dashing and imposing as a cavalry officer of
the period. Lord Morpeth presented a very grave burlesque of
some ancestral Howard; and Lord Stanley might have been mis-
taken for the resuscitated spirit of one of his noble forefathers, so
complete was the illusion. Lord Ellenborough was a very con.
epicuous character. He wore one of the most stiff and angular
court dresses of the time. His Lordship, since his return from his
eastern Imperatorship, has shorn those luxuriant locks of his on
which his satirical opponents were wont to make merry. Perhaps
it was to compensate himself for the loss that on this occasion he
invested his head with an outrageous wig of gigantic capacity,
under which even his large features shrank to nothing. The Me-
dusa submitted to a course of hair-powder could not have pre-
sented a more monstrous spectacle; and, mounted on the strange
and ungraceful costume his Lordship chose, this wig appeared still
more absurd.

Sir James Graham, Mr. Shaw Lefevre, the Duke of Bucking-
ham, Mr. Hallam, and Lord Denman, were among those who best
supported the assumed character. Lord Lyndhurst came in his
Chancellor's dress, and when the circumstance was remarked
upon, his answer was, " Oh I the Lord Chancellor, you know,
never dies, he is always the same." Among the legal characters
Mr. Pemberton Leigh was one of the most distinguished for pro-
priety of costume and appropriate bearing. One costume alone
was decidedly outré. The Hon. Mr. Curzon appeared in a dress
which it was difficult to recognise. Apparently he was a good
deal pestered with inquiries on the subject. It might have been
meant for the state dress of the Cham of Tartary or the Chinese
Emperor, but that it was too grotesque for either. Others thought
that the long gown, clasped at the neck, and flowing to the feet,
and the sugar-loaf cap, were designed for the dress of one of the
victims of an Auto da Fe. At last it was discovered to be in-
tended for a Venetian costume. The Scotch dresses were very
beautiful, and contributed more than any to the variety of the
scene.

In referring to the dresses of the gentlemen, we have most un.
gallantly passed over these of the ladies. They were almost all
beautiful ; those of the garchioness of Douro, the Duchess of
Sutherland, and Lady Canning, being particularly remarkable.
Altogether we were surprised at the success with which the
assumptions of costume, with some few exceptions, were made;
nor was it less remarkable that so many should have adopted the
carriage and manners of the time with the dress. Out of such un.
promising materials it was matter for wonder that there were so
few incongruities, and that the costumes generally should have
been so much in keeping.—Times.
