EParis correspondence Of the Now York Worid.l
Coming forward on the arm Of the head waiter,
at the concert room of the Champs ElTsees, you
see in the subject Of these gratulations the
coaTsest looking girl that ever scrubbed floor, or
hung ont clothes on h0nset0p,
She is scraggy, with disposition to puff ont at
just those places where flesh is snperhlous; raw
and hard i the texture Of her skin walking with
d great uneven stride, like one used 70 wooden
shoes; her bare arms were gfstly levers. dubbed
with a hand behind which fhe whole woman could
conceal herself: and her features were simply
ordinary; her hair coarse and black, and one
twisted shredof it falls over her temples like a
nares foreipek. In her face, nevertheless, there
is sort Of rough, consistent humor; and when
the people cry their loudest oekery she puts out
her Tongue and winks with a droilery irresistibly
confident and comic, Amid great huzzas, ami
mostly and laughter, Theresa climbs into the little
pavilion, and appears with elenehed fist, saying
# yon doa't shat up, boys, won't sing !;
Pona ~
You are able to SEE By the clear white light
that she wears white satin dress, ahundantly
trimmed with point lace, and on her naked wrist
and land there are bracelets and rings Of dia-
nlonds and canoes, an emerald hueked belt, and
diamond.
The woman wins upon you by her rough, appa-
Teatlg unaffected approach, tom-hoy like, with
traces of generous HhfeWaness and idiocy i'll her
eye. The music strikes up, and she seizes it with
= careless readiliess
Her voice is very strange and masculine, not a
sweet chord in ii, but superb melody, and it
comes straight as speech, without any efforts at
Warbiing or catching high notes; direct, equal
volume of song dstines, tribe nasal, soft there.
fore and to Ii she keeps a8sort OF meat-axe time
with her big elbow fist and foot. The effect is
irresistible, the words being absnrdly funny, and
suited tothe low Intellectual degree which The
reaa represents. Tt is such singing as rather
bold married woman might give at a Winterparty
IN remote New Jersey and such q song As yon3
hear from the negro minstrels on Broadway.
OF this kind of music thera is little doubt that
Theresa b the first mistress il The world. Brig
of its KIND.
The woman, al your friend the yiscount tells
you mas no history bnt her low origin her voice
ana her comic talent She has made prgdigions
sums nf money, behaved in private life like the
animal she was meant to be, got into trouble
therefor twice on thrice, and is nothing more than
an exerescenee Of Pariss horse with birds
mouth, an or that can langh.1
