GENTLEMEN WANTEp.--The
ladies Of the Easten springs and
ba~ths:scomplain Of the want Of male
company. AT most Of the places
of fashionable resort, the better
sex are in majority Of three TO one.
When i comes to dancing, driving
sails, promcnades, pic-nics or din
ing, the want Of escort is serious.
II is a dry and dreary way for la
dies to spend several weeks of the
caloriiic season when the social
mass likes the leayen of masculin.
lily, a dismal monotony Of magmif-
icent toilets floating through par
Tors, a lugubrious parade Of bathers
morning and evening. sad rows of
Ichignons ranged around the din
ncr table without cropped heads
to break the samcness Of splendid
coifidres, a few hours with novels,
a few attempts at conversation, q
short stroll along the beach, anoth-
er dreary hour or two Of attempts
at dancing, and the day Is killed to
be succeeded BY another equally
tedious. Visitors are rewarded
with improved health for their la
Dor, expense and prisatations, but
for all match making purposes and
all social mjoyment the might bet
ter be at home.
This scarcity Of men result, in
part from their unwillingness to
waste iimc from business, : for
every man hath business such as
is !" partly, also, from the want Of
means, but principally from an
TO insipid monotony. For
q few days, dancing, flirting,
''spooning,' bathing and sailing
may I'LL mp the intervals between
maps aud meals very wen, but the
round Of pleasure soon begins to
pail, and III L-ss than a week a des-
comes over to return to their
homes, Men relish nonsense
best In broken doses.--N. O.Times.
