for three days, and the soldiers and the band are
fixed yiyidy upon our memory. The steamer was
not much, when compared with the "Star" which
took the good people from the Kenncbec to Boston

The stage In London.

VERY FEW THEATRES WHICH RESPECTABLE LADY
CAN VISIT.
From all accounts, says the Inter Ocean, the
London stage is in far worse condition than
our own and there are very few theatres now
open in that city which lady of respectability
can either visit or permit her family to visit,
without the fear of beholding sights which, at
the very least are calculated to make her blush
for the degradation Of her sex. The gaieties
Of the Jardin Mabille are a mere bagatelle to the
volatile Partisan. To him they are a matter OF
course, and do not begin to touch that deli
catej refinement in the arts OF vice to which
his fife has been one long devotion. But it is a
singular fact that what the Anglo-Saxon, with
his stohd, sluggish and earnest nature, takes
from the Continent, he follows with blind in
fatuation at which his more experienced CONT
mental friend would smile.
A Frenchman lives two ives-in the salon he
is the very personfcation Of morality; he cult
Yates lamour outside. ALI this madame per-
fectly understands and 30 long as the Count FOR
bears the very hint of such lifesin the presence
of ladies, which, to do him justice, he is too po.
lite to do, all is perfectly satisfactory and
agreeable. But the case is different with MIR.
John Bull
The can-can has found its way to the London
theatres, and 30 Mr.. Bull, proud Of his British
virtue, drags his large and obtrusively virtuous
| ' missus" and his blooming and would-be
| fashionable daughter to see the show, and while
| the nobility and some of the minor swells coun-
| tenance it, Mr.. Bull thinks it "quite the CONT.
mental thing you know" and young Mr.. Bull
| winks to companions, and imagines he is seeing
life, while the young ladies' don't know what te
| think.
1t is only when the Thunderer comes out and
denounces the whole affair when Belgravif
| drops of, the church has taken it up, and res
| pectability is shocked, that Mrs. John Bul
bounces out with all her daughters, and abuse
the old gentleman roundly for taking them Il
such place. To the credit OF our country-wo
men be it said, they leave such exhibitions t.
| their wild young cousins.
