and attitude; imagine brief waltzes and
short promenades, broken by the con-
tinually recurring mazurka step, and by
a dainty stamp of the dancers foot, and
lifting now Of one arm and now of
another. But you never will imagine it;
you must come to St. Petersburg and
see it,
1t was especially beautiful to watch
the skill and lightness Of one male
dancer named Ceschinski, and the per
feet ease and training of an old man
who waved handkerchief in his hand
as he made his steps, and called down
loud applause. He always ended his
figure by dropping on one knee and
kissing the hem of his partners blue
dress.
| was told, and ought to have been glad
to hear it, that the very prettiest and the
most perfect of the female dancers is
the mother of seven children; but pos
slbly my informant may merely have
prsctlced gratuitous piece Of cruelty.
When at last the dancers passed off the
stage there was laundering applause,
and loud cries of Bis Bis" They
showed themselves and went again, but
still the call continued louder than ever
Will they Gomez" "No, they won't. y
Yes here they are!" and on they came
again, rRi gave US a second pleasure.
In r. capital of Europe will you hear
and see such trained choruses and corps
de ballet as in St. Petersburg, where
they are all carefully trained in the I'M
perial school, which educates at one
time three hundred ballet girls. Can
one imagine an English Government
conducting the education of ballet
dancers? Yet Russia is country with
tenfold more religious observance in it
than England.

Tne BaIIet at st. PetersDurg.

From the London Times.l
The orchestra plays the proud, pacing
music of the polonaise we have so often
heard of late, and the Polish cavaliers,
in bronze boots, red breeches, blue and
red tunics, and tall plumed caps, lead on
ladies in smart, short blue dresses and
boots, and white-must we call them
f" tights?" The costumes of these
dancers are exceedingly pretty, their
dancing is admirable, and there is a
peculiar and inimitsble air and pride
and grace in their carriage. The wind
ing procession and resounding march of
the polonaise over, eight couples dance
the cracoYeck to the elinking of the cav
alters spurs, and with a thousand grace
ful and eoquettish turns and twirls.
Then comes the mazurka, the real, true
Polish mazurka. VINO shall describe it,
Who can describe q dance, and this
least of all ? Imagine everything that
is most graceful and most pretty Of step
