Haylcigh Don't croak, Nol you hardly
appreciate the deaf creature yet There ARE
women so fond of admiration that they cannot
bear to part with an adorer & TO whom II would
be death To see the discarded one swell the
train of another fair; yet so conceitcdly sell
fish. that they would never bes,ow purse aud
person on one who is not able to give them
more than an equiv alent--such is our coun-
tess. As for love, you might well expect
love from drumstick'
But does she not find out you are laughing
at her = ! inquired
You do not know how blind one may be-
come through vanity said the major.
She thinks We are all dying for her still,
whilst in Truth we are onl, dying of laughter.

As we entered the countcss's box, Lord
Mildworh was Just quitting IT, was nitro
{ duced by Sullivan, who remained for time
f and then lounged away. Now that had a
, nearer view of the heroine Of my sketch, and
patroness of the society, could not help con
Tossing that il was no wonder men should be
fooled and enchanted by one So charming. -
, She was Of fair complexion, contrasting well
with the blacklist of bright eyes; her hair
braided back, showed the contour of a face &c
which nothing could be objected. Her fig

one had thought of her at ones Preside, il
would have been as an 'orffaiffsnt 10 ones
