Of these tribes, yet was sorry to observe
number Of beautifal young female ciii-
zens obliged TO give up their seats to make
room tor them. The ladies' were compel.
ed to quit the floor of the house, or to
view the sight from the upper galleries
amongss Turks, Jews, In6dels and Ne
groes, or TO suspend their curiosity. As
,hisis not one of the virtues of the fair
sex they mounted amongst the diHgy
groupe.

In the evening they gave dance at the
