Kids new pair (as friend Of hers told
mel every day. Before the ladies
strutted their major domo, who never
left their side at the table. Other wait
ers might bring Mrs. Hicks her food, but
only her own servant might place 1t be-
fore her. Her dinner over, the whitest of
hands were dipped in the ing bowl,
dried on the s0ftest of napkins and
drawn again into the whitest of kids,
and Mrs. Hicks and her companion
marched out of the dining room, pre-.
coded by her servant and followed by
the eyes Of the common mortals. She
had little company. but it was of the best.
None of the common herd ever dried
their fleece at her fire. She went out
good deal in her own carriages-driving
big team of banged steppers to fine
coupe and Victoria. She also had her
saddle horse, and when she trotted along
the avenue or through the park, followed
by her groom in mulberry coat cooked

she was the personification of grace and
beauty. She was, if I remember rightly,
On intimate terms at the house of George
Bancroft, the historian, and with the
families Of several of the foreign Min

company, aud also Gen. Butler. There
was, believe, q report current at one
time that she and Gen. Butler were to
he married. This il not extraordinary, as
her name has been connected with good
many desirable widowers, including Gen.
Schenck and the brother Of the Duke of
Richmond. Her departure from Wash
ington was regretted Ivy her landlord, at
least.-Phiiadelphia Times.
