New Years Day.

New oRK, Jan. 3, 1887.
FRIEND BENNETr-Yesterday participated in the
delightful custom Of interchanging kind and social
feelings at the commencement OF the New Year.
Ii was the most exhilerating and inspiring day TO
M that have enjoyed since my eyes first saw the
light. When say exhileratlng, do not for a moment
suppose that refer TO the effects Of coffee Burgundy
claret or any OF the exciting drinks presented to my
ton produced by female beaHy-femae elegance and
grace-female wit and loveIness-pure, divine, and
heavenly ideas and feelings fowingin slvery streams
from the sweet vocal organs Of angels clothed in the
exquisite human form, filling the atmosphere with
delicious fragrance caught on their passage through
the sweet, honled and ambroslal lips of woman. Let
me pariicuarize little in unexceptionable way.
intend to be very brief for have some calls to make
today.
Go with me up 10 l4th street, and dwell with de-
light that fair and fragile one, whose cheeks, when
she talks or smiles, have Of the perfect and
striking dimples ever gazed upon by man. She gra-
ciously handed me glass of wine, and methought If
one of her dear dimpes the cup from which
might be permitted to drink, the wine would have
changed its character, and become heavenly bever-
age totally and altogether. Butt cannot stop-how-
ever much desire it, and feel in the right humor for
such an undertaking-to speak Of the divine influences
possessing my soul, as enjoyed the presence, wit,
beauty and destinations of the dear ones IN Clinton
Place, ST. MARKS, Fourth street, and many other
streets and places in the upper part Of our good me-
tropos. Pass with me- rapidly as possble-for it
is extremely cold and clustering, and il is desirable TO
fill the frame with the glow of healihful exercise we
wish to make an impression-down To Chamber street.
and disport yourself-yea, become an exiacy-in adj
mring and adorng that natural, unartificia unsophls
ilcated angel whose smile is mogc-whose eye is en-
chantmeni-whose frame is faultless-whose CONVEX
sation reaches the dormant feelings Of the cold
est heart-whose presence Is dear little heaven Of
unearihly rapiures! But is this married lady in War
rem street being Of earth from the skies Ii you
wish to 90 and admire consummatc elegance and
grace-polish and rcfinement-vlvaclty and bnlancy
sparkling lusrous intellectual, spiritual eyes-n
short you desire TO behold perfect lady creature
who would shed radiance, and make most sensible
impression in the ranks Of the seraphs and cherubs
the paradsaica creatures of a celestial rcgon-go 10
Warren street. | intended on my way down, TO
speak of n lovely fair in Laight srcst bnt have
arrived At Warrca street. and must now glide cover TO
Park Place. and | have done. In that Interesting
Place residcsa lady whose whole manner and look is
fraught with sweetness mlldness, gCntleness and
placidy. But what wish 10 speak OF are a set-a
lovely pair Of the most beautiful eyes that graced
the countt nan &c of woman-tha ever served in
dexes of mind and feellng-tha held fast the
raptured attention of adorlng man. YEA they so
swcetly, mildly pacdly richly soft and blue long
ed-yea, ardently longed TO be little fairy Skill
that might gently sail in their blue depths OF lowell
ness. No! ardently desired that might instantly
iurn into pretty little diving Bell-that might go
clear down TO the gemmed and pearly bottom of that
lovely soft blue Deep and gather there the corals cus
ierng round the sweetest dearest purcst truesi d.
vnest little heart that foand Judgment in fair
lady bosom. God bless her heavenly soul
| have done. Happy New Year to the dear little
Herald Yours most respectfully and profoundly,
GoTHAmITr.
