We understand that the preparations made
by the Guards are of the most superior char
acter, and that those who favor them with
their company may rest assured that naught
will occur to offend the most fastidious. The
committee have determined not to issue ladies'
invitations; but they, however, extend gen.
eral invitation to their lady friends to honor
them with their presence. The well known
reputation of the Guards for gallantry and at.
tention to the sex warrant US in saying that
our pleasure loving lady readers would be ex-
tremely culpable to neglect them on this occa-
sion.

now and then to step into Gautier's to buy
bon bons.
