DIAMONDS ARE TRUMPs.
The " Get Up - OF the Wife of MIL
IiOnaire-A Diamond show.

Mrs. Astor, the wife of the hundred
millionaire of New York, appeared at
the party which she gave at her Fifth
avenue residence one evening last week
in style which would justify any re-
porter in saying that she literally
blazed all over with diamonds" On
each of her shoulders she had four stars
the size of silver half dollars made of dia-
monds. Her hair was set very thickly
with diamonds, and her head seemed
ahame with them. There was dia-
mond bandeau upon her brow. She had
diamond earrings and a diamond
necklace of magnificent proportions
Upon the two sides of her chest
we're two circles of diamonds,
about the size Of the palm of the hand.
From them deepened lines and curves
OF diamonds reaching to her waist, round
which she wore a diamond girdle. On
the skirts of her dress in front were two
large peacocks wrought of lines Of dia'
monds. There were rosettes of dia-
monds on her slippers. There were dia-
monds large or small ,butin every variety
of form, all over her dress and person,
wherever they could be artistically
placed. She presented an extraordi-
nary and dazzling spectacle, as she
moved languidly through the dance
among her friends One of the ladies
present, connoisseur in precious stones,
who kept cool enough to take practical
observations, says the diamonds she
wore could not have cost less than mil
lion dollars, and must have represented
her husbands income for at least quar-
ter of year. This same lady, who is
familiar with court life in Europe, says
that the largest collection of diamonds
in possession of any European Empress
or Queen, belongs to the present Ger
man Empress, but she adds that even
Augusta herself could not make dia-
mond show which would begin to COM
pare with that made by Mrs. Astor on
Thursday evening of last week. In
these hard times, the Astors are occa-
sioually liberal in their benefactions.
For instance, there was banquet for
twenty-four given at the Astor mansion
the other day, and in front Of each lady s
plate there was a gift for her of costly
bonbonniere, exquisitely wrought with
precious stones, and about the size OF
an ordinary snuif-box, and each lady
was also presented with bouquet, got
ten up in fashion not to be described.

A SKATING SCENE.
Princes and Princesses on the les
I'm 81. Petersburg.

Princes and Princesses on the Ice
I'm 81. Petersburg.
On the evening of February llth the
English Skating Club gave fete at st.
Petersburg on the Neva. The grounds,
if one may apply such word to several
acres of enclosed ice, are nearly oppo-
site the English Church, and the club
had converted the usually unadorned
level of their winter freehold into an
Elysian field of ice temples, magnesium
lights, colored lamps, and fires, pavil-
ions, and Bullets. All round the en-.
closed space, writes the correspondent
of the London Times, were hung chains
of lamps, red and blue and green, fes-
tooned in pretty patterns. At one side
was the royal pavilion, with small
supperroom behind, built on the ice.
Opposite to this were two kiosks for
military bands, while at either end of
the skating field were cloak and refresh.
ment rooms for the general company.
In the center of the enclosure rose
castle OF frozen water, trophy OF ice
masonry, converted into chapelle ar
dente by a blaze Of fires and lanterns
burning at its windows and battlements.
Small citadels were also built at the
corners of the enclosed space, their
mimic architecture flushed with Bengal
lights burning within; but the most
beautiful decoration of all was the soft
sunshine streaming from electric or
magnesium lamps fixed at intervals
round the enclosure.
The Prince and Princess of Wales, the
Duke and Duchess ofEdinburgh, Prince
Arthur, the Crown Prince Of Denmark,
the Czarevitch, Czarevna, and the Grand
Dukes Vladimir and Alexis we're pres
ent, and each and all entered heartily
into the skating, seeming thoroughly to
enjoy themselves. 1t was, indeed,
welcome contrast and relief amid the
never-ending succession of balls and
dinners, which offer nothing half so
Joyous AS gliding to and fro over smooth
ice, to the sound of music, in the flash
iRg light of magnesium lanterns, and by
the rainbows of ten thousand colored
lamps. Then, also, one had the pleas
ure of seeing princes and princesses in
the flesh as it were, not sitting at high
tables or walking in msrshalled pro-
cessions, trans6gured with stars and
ribands and jewels and long trains, aud
taking their pleasure with the rest as
ordinary mortals, enjoying no special
exemption even from collisions and
tumbles. The Grand Dukes are good
goa head skaters, very Jehus in their
furious driving of ladies chairs, and the
Prince of Wales and the Duke of Edin-
burgh, the Crown Prince of Denmark
and Prince Arthur, can hold their own
with the best. The Princess of Wales
and Czarevna kept their skates on for q
very long time, and it was pretty to
watch the sisters gliding along hand in
hand, or in a chair with three or four
gentlemen. Sometimes a ring would
form round the great American skater,
Mr.. jackson Haines, watching him exc
cute his narvellously dexterous and
graceful gyrations and gymnastics, ut
terly astonishing to the ordinary skater.
All the while the music played, and it
was near one o'clock before a crowd of
skaters gathered near the pavilion gave
farewell cheer 20 the royal and impe-
rial skaters.

met me with extended hand, saying,

A Rochester paper reports that a
candidate for a local Office called the
other day at saloon kept by woman
in that city to obtain, if possible, the
influence of her husband in his behalf
Unfortunately, however, the husband
had been dead for six months; but, hav-
ing an eye to business the woman took
good care not to inform him of the fact,
but simply remarked that her husband
was not in. The candidate stopped
round there for some time, setting
them up for the boys" until his patience
became exhausted. Before leaving
however, he left nste with the widow
to give her husband as soon as she saw
him. This the lady promised faithfully
to do, but at the same time remarked
to a bystander that she was not ambi-
tious to see her husband for some time
to come.
