artists and critics they have still enthusiastic admirers
and warm pansgyTlais

Speaking Of concerts must not omit to tell you
rather curious anecdOe, illustrative of the manner in
which Erg ism criticism is carried on in our day.. At
Herr PaueIs first concert the principal attraction was
advertised to consist IN duet sung by Mrne Paner
ana hi. Lautlsy. Unhsppiy, one OF those sudden
IdispOsitons which render artists the plague OF mana
gers and directors befell the lady, and the grand
moroccan could rot be given, ard the programme
had besdes 10 be changed Ia several essential pieces
Nevertheless, the next dsy Jhe MnS'caI u0rtd
Contained a very sharp Cit Glenn, and poor Madame
Pauer especially was told, with CREST display OF
bad humor and assumed knowledge, that she did not
know how to sipg the famous duet whch she had hot
sung all. Herr Pauer wrote in consequence to me
n usicsl but by no means harmonious PERIODICAL and
received, by wsy OF apology, the singular answer
that the writers Of the paper Dein9 all en-
legged the evening on which the concert was gwen,
"the editor had sent an amateur VINO ola no' uhoer-
L" stand word Of music.
Although lectures neither so frequent nor so long
in Euesnd as in the United States, they still f1rm an
important feature IN the lie ana manners Oh tne peo
nile and are one of the favOrte topics of conversation
Among thOse TO which has been my good fortune TO
listen have esp,cisly remarked one on Beau Brum,
MEL delivered by George Dawson OF Manchester.
fnoiug tnat tie lecturer did not derive from his sub
iect all the advantage which 1t would nave been so
easy TO collect. He even apologzed for choosing such
a nero, as if shopkeeper's grandson, who becomes
the ibtima friend Of the King and the pet OF the
pioudest arsocrsey in the wOI1, and who, after hav-
g held for many years the s,epter of ia hion finally
dies peor and forg0ttn in French hospital, was net
one Of tie most romantic SUBJECTS possible. Lord

Bummel darcer Vetlis had it true, said before
him that Frederick H., Votaire and Vestris we're the
three CREST Of toe eighteenth century Ii Is easy
TO laugh at man who spent q whole morning in ar
ranging his world-amed white cravat, and whose
mode of dressing Was elaborate that the Prince
Regent went TO zee him as great spectacle; az
man who enpoyed three hairdresserr, one for the
temples che for the back of the mead and another for
the crown. But il must not be forgotten that Brum-
mel put end TO the vulgArity, the nsstiness and
Tudenees of manners which too many men TOOK Tor

The ruler of fashion brings me to fashion itself. ana
here must tell as in duty bound my far country
women a most important secret namely, that the
hoops manufactured in Paris are round While those
fabricated in London look oblong. On the Bouevards
waking bellies present perfect circle geometrcal

beauty. In Regent street they always seem to wax
