The LAST FASHIONABLE SEASON At W,sp-
NGTON.--We arc told by the Jenkinses of the
small papers at the capital that the season
which has Just closed was one of more than
usual brilliancy-which means that there were
more balls. dinners, roats, and 70 on where
they could smuggle themselves in under protec-
ton of some friendly criuolire. Washington
society is curious medley of all that is good.
bad and Indifferent. from every part OF the
Union. Some people cone TO get places; some
are ia pursuit of contracts and lobby lob.
some in search of rich wives; some 10 repair
broken fortune with wealthy husband. All
are seeking for some SELFISH end and those who
arc the most successful are generally thu great
EFT rascals. one curious feature in Washington
society this winter has been the union Of all tic
cie,oirrs iBdVytr, the lights Of the lobby. the
place hunters ard the match makers upon Tic
common ground of the boI costiD,f. which has
been the favoIite entertainment. These fancy
balls are sometimes given to help along some
lobby job in Congress. sometimes TO forward o
Irritation. and sometimes 10 make a great show
which shall Guido everybody else. The chief
feature Of the affair. however. is the Chevalier
Jenkins. who earns his bit of supper aud glass
of wiuc by elaborate descriptions Of all the cos
tunes. with the points Of the wcarers and trc-
mendous pulls for the givers Of the feasts. To
those Who d. not understand the hidden oh
iects OF these fancy balls. they seem TO bc sim
ply Gathering Of large number Of snobs
vainly cudcavoriug to be gay but Jenkins
knows what il is done for aud confidently cx-
pets share Of the drippings of the pan. The
lobby selves upon fashion and frivolity 30 work
cut il plaus. aud that is the true secret Of most
of the grand entertainments given at Washing
ton during the past winter.
