Mr.. E B., with his ninite fund of humour,
gave additional hlarity TO the assembage, and caused
the halls TO resound with laughter.
"Who IS that peerless beauty whose eyes beam so
softly upon her seemingly devoted admirer standing

and 1t may be truly said
His love here
That young lady, the gayest among the gay and
happy throng is the enchanting Miss b. of East
Broadway, distinguished for her surprising loneliness
and her cultivated mind.
The supper on the table at early hour and
all was as usual, joy and festivily, the gentlemen
with their accustomed vigour pressed forward to the
destruction of the eatables, and the champagne
flowed merrlly around.
One feature was remarkable in this soree, and in
deed is beginning be the marked of all parties
new fe-a new joy-a fresh spirit of genius and of
happiness appears Of late to have been infused into all
parties and soirfcs The publicity given these bril-
liant affairs have called forth higher taste-a keen
edge of feeling-a purer tone in manners, CONVEX
sation, and general behaviour, among the youth of
both sexes The belief that the beaming eyes of our
hundred Ariels are upon their movements, make the
ladies amiabe as the loves Of Heaven. Our Ariels
Countless eyes,
PeepIng like stars through the blue evening skies,
Lookd laughing in as If TO mock the fair
That 50 i'll and melancholy there
And R0,c tie curtains fly apari, and in
From the cool air, mid showers Of Jessanline
Which those wttou fling after them p7y,
The lghtssme naIdens spring, lghison,e they
Who live an tn air OdOrs, aud around
The bright saloon, scarce conscious OF the ground,
Chase another IN varying dance
OF ni'ih and languor coyness and advance
Around the white necks of tn. nymphs who dancd
Hung carcanets OF orient gems, that glazed
More brilliant the glass pllticnnc o
Ihe n lis VI crystal OH the Z 1spian shore.
