WINTER PIUNICS.

A fashion has been set in London
which some of orr fashonables medi-
tate introducing here, and which bears
the name of winter picnic. Inform eight
gentlemen and as many ladies that on
such a morning YOU will have winter
picnic at your residence. Each gentle
man appears at the given hom-twelve
o'clock-wth his lady friend, and brings
a hamper filled with C obed game and
meat iellies The host or hostess fur
nishes the wines. Pastry is supplied
by the ladies, who study Blot's book in
consequence of this demand, and holly
branches, mistctoe, and evergreen de-
corate the apartments in great profu
sion. 1t is decidedly more piquant
that the snow should be on the ground
and that the whole should end with II
sleigh ride, which, in its turn, termin-
ates with dance, perhaps, at the house
of another lady than the first hostess.
1He popularity Oh THESE gatherings
abroad has been bruited here, and they
will probably be a success if carried out
by those who have decided upon bring
ing them into favor. There is, it is
needless to say, little doubt of their
popularity among the young people, as
the free and easiness Of anything en-
titled picnic is always conducive to the
lirtations dear to the hearts of the ris.
