UNION CLUB MeISe`DERADE.

All the expe&ations that were formed of this
Gala fell infinitely chore of the reality, for of all the
fcenesoffafhionable crowd that ever was witneffed,
we never law any thing comparable to that in and
about Cumberland Houle, on Monday night—we
fay in and abort, for the mafqueradc was by no
means confined to the manfion. What with the
extravagant demand for Tickets, the anxiety of
the (affirmable world to get there, and perhaps
the omillion of a well-deviled plan of approach, all
the Ilreets in the vicinity of Pall-Mall were com-
pletely blocked up before midnight. Many car-
rives were overturned; many parties fat till font
o'clock in the morning in the ftreets hrtcte they
could get up to the door; and many gave rip the
attempt in defpair, and returned home v.-itlltat:
vifiting the gay and giddy fcene of joy :It all.—
Hundreds, :toss-ever, quitted their carriage, and
trudged through the dirty and crowded iti.:ets
with (pit its that no alarm nor obnacle could alia v.
By one o'clock the bottle was completely fill-d,
and a more varied or a more fplendid a
is not eafy for the imagination to concei% v. /VI
that the inventive talle of luxury could device n
combined in the dreffes and metamorpliores of the
falltionable world. There was a prolution and
wane of expence in the decorations, as if our No-
bility and Gentry had received to chi-play in this
fettival of the peace our unexhaulled relnurcec
continuing the war. Not merely had the Ladies:
rivalled one atiother in the fiampttion% prep) ati.ms
they had made for the magnificent ornairt nt of
their beauty ; but the Gentlemen alio (hove in
the richnefs of their embroidery and nithiluad....l
liberality of their expence. We r.,.:ver faw on any
former occalion fo many fuperb Turks, Spaniard.,
ancient Barrios, &c. &e: whole &dies were el ;he
molt coal), kind. -Tlie fociety, however, had all
the advantages of the true Id.: nide, for there were
not only a number of vulgar charad...rs, but many
who perhaps did not de'art from their genuine
manners in the parts which they all-tuned ter the
night. The Ladies were eminently flicceisful in
the difplay of their beauty, and yet with the molt
guarded decorum. Nothing could be more fafci-
nating, and yet more elianc,•than the elegance of
thcir attire. It was only in tome coarfe and dif-
gutting expefltions of men in women's cloaths.—
Nudity is inelegant even in the lex, but in men it
is abhorrent. ':here was one groups in particular
that carried this fpecies of metamorphofis to excels.
It confined of eight men reprefenting a board-
ing-fchool miftrefs, with her fcholars. Not con-
tent with lbncking modefty by the unfeemly fight
of black bearded milfes, with bare and tawny arms
and (boulders, they under pretence of fupport
ing their hoydeni(h romping charaders pulhed and
forced their way in every diredion with infinting
rudcoefs, and in their affumption of names, had
no regard to private character. They were
attended by a man fervant in rich laced apathy.
The variety of the charaders, and the incefihnt
novelty that prefented itfelf, afforded continual
fources of merriment to thole who had the talent
to elicit flathes of wit from the contad. And in
this refped a mafquerade competed chiefly of the
higher orders of the Nobility, potreffes advantages
unknown to a more mixed afTembly. Under the
niofl artful and feemingly impenetrable difguife,
prominent and remarkable charaders are dile°.
vered, and all the incidents of their lives being
known, an opportunity prefents itfelf for happy,
and fometintes for bitter raillery. The intrigues,
political and amorous—the tergiverfations, the
fopperies, and the frailties of the beau monde then
become fair game ; and much feafonalele and re-
vere truth is tpoken under the tandion of a mail:.
Accordingly, in mixing with the feveral groupes
in the lively and animated [cone, we heard from
Come fpiritual females, as well as from Come of
the male wits, flrokcs of humour, and fatirical
inuendos, which arc not undeferving of record.
The principal character, from the uttered which
he excites wherever he prefents himfelf, as well as
from the elegance and condefeenflon of his deport-
ment, was the Prince of Wales in the chefs of
Henri VIII. The coflume was perfect; the em-
broidery was uncommonly rich, and his cap was
highly ornamented with diamonds. Mrs. Fitz-
herbert and Lady Haggeraon were in uniform
fancy dreffes.
. .

Kgang of Gypties, with their afs and paniers,
moll admirably dreffed and fupported; they had
pitched their tent in the garden, and carried a nu-
merous tribe of equalling bantlings behind them in*
their knapfacks. There were two or three com-
panies of 1:-.)42akers, who teemed more moved by
the &lh than the epitit.—A Lady Pentwcazle,
who affeeled to be very fqucami(h, but had no
objation to a little badinage. A Harlequin, but
without any lightnefs in his heels ; and feveral
good Clowns. There were Pilgrims without
number, but none who were difpofed to travel to
the Holy Land ; a Father Paul, by Lord Dillon ;
a Hermit, by Mr. Lamb; and a Beau of the leg Cen-
tury, by Mr. Ralph Leyceller. There was alio a
Caricature of a celebrated Statefman, who was to
much confided by the crowd, and fo violently preff-
ed in all quarters, that he gave way to vatting
circumftances, and expreffed his earnett with to
abandon all claims of indemnity for the pall, in
order to have It:entity for the future. He did not
invoke the alfembly in favour of religion and .mo-
r.tlity, but loudly and feelingly called upon theit
to preferve friendly intercourfe and incial order.
There were feveral of the performers from the
Theatres, who fupported different charaders.—
Mr.
.7olut Kemble appeared as a Pilgrim ; Kelly as.
a Jew B:cker ; yohnjlone a Scotch Peafant; and
Dighton as Juniper Jenny; there were alto feveral
Indians and Cherokees.
Moll of the Foreign Minifters were prefent. M.
Qtto wore an elegant Court drefs.
Mr. Allen, of Fintbury-equare, excited general
admiration by the fttperb coltume which he exhi-
bited of 4, Turkilh Baihaw. A moll finilhed cha-
ratler was given of a Ruffian Boor, in a full fait
of fable, as well as of a loquacious difciple of Ef-
culapius, whn, according to his own account, had
noltrum for every complaint. A Nitric, by Sir
john. Coghill ; and feveral Hungarian Officers in

minds. The company, in fauft, embraced the whole
filhionable world, and formed an objeft oo large
for the eye or the mind to take in one view.
Though every body was there, Nobody was cer-
tairly one of the bell characters in the room ; a
beautiful female as a Virgin op& Sun, who did not
unmafk the whole night, was Aced by the Prince,
Will not the fun appear during the whole morn-
ing from under that black cloud ?"

Some Ladies of diftindion lately from the Con-
tinent, had prepared a Phantafinagoria, upon a very
fiiperior fcale ; but it was not polEble to exhibit it.
A groupe of French Ladies deferves notice, for
the talk and elegance of their dreffes as Egyptian
Fannk.r. Mr. and Mrs. Or to, were of the party.
The Supper rooms opened about two o'clock,
and from that moment it is impolfible to defcribe
a fcene of filch confulion, preffure, and tumult.—
Spacious as the houfe is, and well adapted to the
Cub, it wts by no means equal to fuch a company.
Toc:e are two Itaircafes, but the company were
in general only aware of one, and there confe.
quently prevailed a feyere Itruggle for precedence.
The foretnoft of courfe poured into the rooms,
and all the feats were occupied in art intlant; but
though the molt delicious fruits and wines were
placed before them, their fate was no better than
the fufferings of Tantalus. In the Rruggle up
(lairs, a cralh was heard, as if the Raircafe was giv.
ing way. AU were alarmed, terror prevailed over
altrefped for fez or decorum.Thofe who were upon
the (lairs, finding it i.r.poffible to fall back, ruthed
with increafed I.,;ernefs fotward, and f..rced
into the fupper.rooms already etowded to fuffoca-
tion. The rooms now pr( ..ted an alarming ap.
pearance. Twenty Ladles might be feen fainting

fume of them were placed upon the table among
other forbidden fruits and flowers. Others were laid
out in the balcony to recover among the bow-pots.
The females of Frmer nerves, were all the time
bufily employed in taking the diamonds from
their head-dreffes, and putting them and their
other valuable ornaments in their pockets. Thus
all the labour of the toilette was loft in a moment,
and all the ceconomy of beauty deranged. The
drefres, which coil upon an average from thirty to
forty guineas, were torn to pieces, and wigs, of
the molt exquifite tafte and fancy, forced from
their foundations. Strange that it never occurred
to our creative artifts to invent fainting wigs;
if fo, we fhnuld not have teen fo many bareheaded
beauties deferred by their inconftant Titus, Brutus,
and Caracalla. A molt plentiful fupper was laid
for 1400 perfons ; but more than 2000 candidates
for feats were ready. Thole who were up could
not get down ; and if at this time any alarm had
been given, of fire or otherways, it would have
been utterly impoffible to prevent incredible cala-
mity. Such an affembly can only be accomodat-
ed in a place originally defigned for public enter-
tainments. They are not at all applicable to pri-
vate houfes. We rejoice to fay, however, that no
ferious accident occurred. The interruption was
fo great, however, and the difficulty of dcfcending
from the (upper rooms, as well as of getting out
of the houfe, that it was not until between ten and
eleven o'clock yefterday forenoon, tha: the com-
pany got away ; and many of them whole duty
it was to attend their Majeflies and the two Hoofer
of Parliament to Divine Service, on the occation
of the Solemn Thankfgiving to Gon for the return
of the bleffings of Peace, went ftraight from this
fcene to Church.
The confufion out of doors was the occafion of
more difafter than in the infide of the houfe.—
Many carriages were hurt, and feveral were totally
demolifhed. The Comteffe Vifcomte was fertrely
hurt by her carriage being overturned ; and Lady '
Charlotte Campbell was alfo fb much alarmed by
her carriage being broken as to oblige her to re-
tire at an early hour. Thefe accidents arc occa-
fioned by the impetuofity of the coachmen in (hiv-
ing to crofs and joftle each other, in which they
are indifcreetly countenanced by their matters.—
We heard of no fewer than nineteen carriages be-
ing thus run down and broken. In the morning
the fervants furrounding the houfe, had a kale
with the guard ; and it was not until four of them
were taken into cuftody that it was quieted : they
were yeterday brought before N. BOND, Efq. and
Sir WILLIAM PARSONS at Bow-fireet, and the of-
fence of two of them being comparatively trifling,
they were admitted to bail in 201. each ; but the
remaining two, whole offence was confiderably
aggravated by their extreme indecorous conduit
fubfequent to their apprehenfion, were committed
for want of fufficient fureties.

The following is tome defcription of the deco-
rations, by which it will be feen that the prepara-
tions were magnificent. Every thing indeed was
done by the Club; but we underhand that Goo
perfons above the limited number of tickets got
admillion, and this threw the whole into diforder.

The fumptuous Ball Room, Promenade, and
Avenue, was nouvelle and charatteriftic, and the
deffert was allowed to be the flu ft device fecn for
many years.
The Ball Room (temporary) was fupported by
fixteen pillars, in lets of two each, of variegated
green fpar ; the compartments painted in relief
and gilded; the ceiling an arid perfpellive ;
at one end a diftant view of London, another of
Paris from the Seine ; the whole illuminated by
eight beautiful chandeliers.
The Promenade conneeted with the Ball Room,
the roof of which was fupported by trees of differ-
ent kinds, and the whole lighted by tranfparent
lamps of a fezagon figure of different colours, fuf-
pended from the trees.
The Avenue, reaching from the Promenade to
the park, was lighted with coloured lamps, and
terminated by a large tranfparency, repretinting
War fubdued by Peace.
The walls on each fide the avenue were covered
with trees, on which were hung cherries,:oranges
and grapes in abundance.
The Billiard Room was referved for the Prince.
On this table was ferved a beautiful water piece,
the centre of which was occupied by Neptune in his
car, furrounded by Naiads, trophies, and other
naval devices, and in the parterre were compli-
mentary trophies to his Royal Highnefs,with alle-
gorical defigns, reprefenting the return of Commerce
through the medium of Peace. A canopy of crim-
fon Patin was placed behind the Prince's chair,
ornamented in the centre and at the corners with
plumes of oftrich feathers.
The Yellow koom.—A table for the Prince's
attendants, a horfe-(hoe. The centre of this was
marked with a grand military piece of beautiful
workmanflip, fupporting a triumphal car, in
which was feated Mars, branching a Randard of
Great Britain. The fecondary pieces were mili-
tary pillars, on which were introduced excellent
likeneffes, in miniature, of their Majefties of the
Prince of Wales, and the Duke of York : the other
parts were filled with figures cf icve China,
flowers, &c.
The large Card Room.—Two tables of 41 feet
each ; on thefe were ferved a beautiful corridore
of corinthian columns, fupporting fplendid arches,
decorated with drapery of lilver gauze, and charg.
ed with feltoons of roles • the pillars were decorat-
ed with wreaths of laurel, the arches wit!' trophies,
and the fpaces between the arches were marked
with carts after the antique.
The fmall Card 14c,vort.—Two tables, zn feet
each, ornamented in the fame Rile as the great
Card Room, and, as the rooms communicated,
. the whole had a beautiful effeet.

The Supper Room.—Two tables, a feet each:
on thefe tables were two fets of ornaments in the
Arabefque Rile, very fuperb ; in the centre of one
in a vafe ornamented, were introduced live- gold
filh; thefe ornaments were tastefully connected by
beautiful wreaths of various flowers.
The whole of thefe tables were on the fiat floor.
The rooms on the fecond flight, eight or nine in
numbrr, were ornamented and ferret! ill the fame

fice) had a 11:nz table, Erved with a grand
I.alt Alfa Of Ot UMW: t'tS, producing a very tine eirea.
The Pt ince's tUrp• -room was an c ceptien to
the general confulion (-Stile night ; while diliteder,
cruthing, finicking, and fainting, prevailed in every
other apartment, all was harin.nly and etwaord or
fweet founds in the pretence of his Royal
Here the Mits Abrams were tweedy tinging The
Sailor Boy," ~Better the wav worn Traveller,"
and other favourite ail', accompanied by Invite
gentlemen amateurs. There were nut fewer than.
3000 perfons in the rooms. They began to depart
at five o'clock, many of them not only without
a talk hut even a light of the flipper. The
great proportion of them did not, howeve«,
leave the Houle until half after (even, and many
had not retired before ten o'clock yetlerday morn-
ing. The circnlTlllanees of their departure corref-
ponded with the confulion of the preceding fcenes.
The carriages could not from their great nutnler
he brought up to the door; and therefore not on-
ly thofe who depended upon hackney coaches, bat
thofc who had coaches of their own were obliged
to go on foot. if the llreets then prefented a view
of Rome or Venice in the time 4 the Carnival,
during the time the company were going at night,
the refemblance was flill flrouger as they
returned in the morning. All the tlreets were filled
with charaders, lcampering home, and as the rain
fell pretty freely, any little remains of female
drefs that efcaped the tempefl of the night, were
entirely fpoiled. For a lift of coughs, colds,
and rheumatifms, acquired upon the occafion,
we mull refer to the Doctors and Apothecaries.
Several Gentlemen were very ill-treated by the
mob ; one Turk had his turban taken from his
head by force, and his camel hair pelice torn to
pieces. A milk•woman fainted in the areet from
the preffute of the crowd, and was neatly killed.
