American snobbery.


There is small and extremely select
circle of gentlemen in New York, who
consider it the chief end and aim of their
| lives TO initiate the manners and customs
of the English nobility; only such man
ners and customs, however, as come under
the general head of sporting" One of
these gentlemen ascertaining that certain
noble fools in England occasionally drove
stage coaches by way of recreation, i'm.
ported an English coach. English harness
and an English guard, and played the part
OF driver every pleasant day SUNDAY
excepted) last summer His line of oper-
ations extended some twenty miles out
from the city and back again, and it was
considered distinguished honor, among
s'our best society,"" to obtain a place in
Col. Delaney kane's aristocratic vehicle
and make the trip under his skilful man
agement of the ribbons. Col. Kane hav-
ing also ascertained that the coaching
nobility of England always sell their horses
at the end of each season-whether there
is anything wrong with them or not-sold
all his horses some weeks ago, at ruin
uous sacrifice" according to the news
paper reports. Next May or June, if Col.
Delaney Kane's valuable life is prolonged
until then. he will start bis coach business
again, with new horses and appointments,
aud SO continue, we presume, until he
himself is driven, In carriage that holds
but one passenger, to permanent lodge
ment in Greenwood.
| Col. Kane Is ably assisted in his great
work OF transplanting English nonsense to
| American soil by a number of friends who
have started fox-hunting on a limited
scale. The fox is generally kept in COM
modious dry goods box until the appointed
day, and then taken over to Long Island
and Jet loose among the scanty brush of
that classic locality. The gallant hunters,
some on horseback and some in trotting
wagons, chase the poor animal until he
runs under barn or into school house,
when they proceed to drag him out and
kill him with all the honors-''just as they
do in England. by G-d,ssah." The last
performance of the season came off short
time since at Hampstead, L. l.; and in
order to make it as English as possible,
was wound up by Hunt ball, to which
"the daughters of the neighboring peas
antry" were invited-''the peasantry'
being the farmers. But to the utter
amaZement OF the metropolitan snobs, the
sfaTmers daughters treated the invitation
with the contempt it deserved, and allowed
the ball to roll on without them. Mex
fall, we suppose, some female peasants
will be imported from England for the
express purpose of giving Terpsichorear
finish to the annual hunt, and then these
domestic Dundrearys will feel that theil
mission on earth is accon. plished
Meanwhile we may remark that it il
such exhibitions of American 'assitude al
these which bring republican institutions
into ridicrle among intelligent foreigners
) who cannot understand how such larg
and lively crop of fashionable apes cal

A Perfect Toilet Soap.

First among the requisites of the toilet Is good
article of Soap, but TO procure it is not always
easy matter. Many of the most expensive Soaps in
the market are made from coarse and deleteriuus
materials and their delicate cooring and fragrant
perfume too often conceal the most repulsive I'm
purities. The disclosures recently made public
regarding this subject are positively startling, and
deserve serious consideration. Scented Soaps are
now known to be extremely Objectionable, especial
ly if applied to the head nuring the hair, irrta
ting the scalp. and inducing severe headaches. The
character of the ingredients may be inferred from
the statement OF gentlemen who makes the scent
ing of Soaps his business be recently declared that
pers ons engaged in this employment were short
lived; from seven TO ten years being the longest
lowed.
The difficulty of procuring perfectly pure arti-
Gle of toilet soap is at last Obviated, however,
thanks to the enterprise and chemical skill of Mr.
B. T. Babbitt, of New York, the world-renowned
Soap Manufacturer, whose immense establishment
is by lar the greatest of the kind in the United
States. The renown of Mr.. Babbitt's various pro-
ductions has for many years been widely dissem-
mated, but this latest success is the appro riate
crown TO the numerous victories already achieved
After years of patient labor and scientific expert
ment Mr. Bahbitt has succeeded in perfectinA the
composition of the 1rest toilet soap intro
ouced. The principal ingredients are the puresi
vegetable oils: the manufacturing processes are
entirely new and original and rhc result is simply
unparalleled IN this department of industry.
B 7. BabbitI's Toilet Soap is the trade MARI
by which this elegant toilet luxury is designated
and for applications te the delicate skin of infants
children and ladies' it is altogether unequaled in it
emollient properties. This Soap is not perfumed
the ingredients being Of such sbsolute purity a. Il
require no aid from chemistry to disguise inferior
materials The most refined taste considers tn,
/ absence of artificial perfume the perfection O
sweetness, and this peculiar characteristic of B. 7
Bebbitt's Toilet Soap renders it the most heathfu
| and agreeable article of the kind ever manufac
| tured.
| Though specially desirable for the use of ladie
and children, this Soap 1s equally appropriate TO
gentemen's toilet, and a. il makes a heavy lathe
It is also of the finest soaps for BARRIERS use
