English Lunches.

English Lunches.
The dinner in England being so state
ly and formal an affair, so exacting in
its requirements of full dress and
knowledge of etiquette, can only be
agreeable to those persons to whom
knowledge Of society is second nature.
The loads of queer celebrities who flock
to England, and of whom English peo-
pie are very fond, are often great bores
at the dinner table. One literary lady
of high eminence carried along a hus-
band who drank out of his finger-g lass
one French soldier of fortune tore the
aspic of plOver's eggs, which stood be-
fore him, apart with his fingers; one
young lady of grasping disposition
will not say what country she was from
reaching for boquet from the grand
epergue, tipped il over. All these things
are trifes, but they did that dreadful
thing-they discomposed the lady of the
house. So there has grown up a spe-

"A luncheon, informal, gay, early, a
sort OF midday dinner, where ladies sit
IN their bOnnets and gentlemen in their
morning-coats-pot the grand twelve
course affair which we give in New York
at 1 o'clock and call Iuncheon-but a
SIMPLE entertainment Joint of NUT
ton, some fruit and salad, and perhaps
cIaret and madeira, where the entertain
ment is easy and perfect, and fitted to
the enjoyment of everybody. At these
pleasant affairs there can be no particu-
lar violation of etiquette; for there is
no etiquette to violate. Every one is
at ease. The houses of Parliament do
not assemble till o'clock in the after
noon, therefore the noble lords and the
faithful commons are at leisure. The
ladies have the day before them. I sus-
! pect many of them who have been ont
until three the night before make this
meal their breakfast, and the guests of
all nations contribute their quota of
agreeability without disturbing the En-
| glsh mind by any violation of those
rules Of life which to them, and to pol
lshed people generally, are aII-impor-
! tant.
MANS OWNERSHIP OF HmsELF.-It is
an error to suppose that a man belongs
to himself. No man does. He belongs
to his wife, or his children, or his rela-
tions, or his creditors, or to society, in
some form or other. It is for their es-
pecial good and behalf that he lives and
works, and they kindly allow him to re-
tain a certain percentage of his gains to
| administer to his own pleasures or
wants. He has his body, and that is
/ all, and even for that he is answerable
! to society. In short, society is the
master and man is the servant and it
Is entirely according as society turns
/ out good or bad master, whether he
/ turns out a bad or a good servant

OPINIONS OF THE PREss.-The Texas

sician once said to one OF his patients
Keep your feet warm, your head cool,
and your bowels open, an there's little

full OF wisdom, and expresses exactly

than fine gold-Vinegar Bitters restores
