From English Papers.

THAT as Dslicacy ?-This is really a
very pIzzling question, for we every
Gay see things practised by the most
scrupulous persons, which we should a
pr'ora consider any thing but delicate.
When her late majesty of the Sandwich
Islands visited the opera, she was rather
shocked at the Voluptuous and significant
attitude Of some Of the dancers and igu-
rantes. Astonished at the liberal display
of limb, and fearful as to what extremity
the performers might be hurried in the
delFium of their movements, her maj
esty limited TO some of her suite the pro-
Priety Of retiring. Madam said one
OF her attendants, 'however repugnant
it may be TO your delicacy, you must
stop. Do you not perceive that your
retiring under the present circumstances
would be the cruellest libel in the world
on all the ladies in the house. Besides.
1t would be prudery in your majesty to
affect TO be shocked at an entertainment
which English ladies can contemplate
with so much complacency; for, have
we not been told over and over, that
English women are the most yirtuous
under the sun?' Lon. Pa
