WOmanly virtue, and this although she has |
been flattered and followed, carressed and |
made much of, more than any living woman.
She has remained, however, the same, true to |

Lady Virginia Sanders is entitled to the
gratitude of London society for introducing
to it her neice, Miss Fitzpatrick, who subse-
quently married Mr. Cornwallis West, of
Ruthin Castle. Ruthin Castle is somewhere
in Wales, and therefore evidently not fitting
abiding place for beauty whose duty it is to
be everywhere in London. To London &C.
Mrs. CORVALLIS West went, and
she was greeted by an admiration almost suf-
icient to console her for the most prolonged
absence from her Welsh castle. Her face is
of that charming and peculiar style of beau
y that has always moved mankind more than
he most regular features. She has very
'ich complexion, on which an occasional
'reckle stamps a certificate of fineness and
hereby adds to the charm of the general eff
ect. A splendid head of ripplng hair,
which used to be very long until she cut it
MO boyish curls, clusters tramewise about
Ter face, producing an effect which many
london beauties have sought to initiate, but
which none has approached. She is impul-
i've, original, daring, and says upon occasion
be sprightliest things; and to her it was Civ
n, some little time, to throw the whole of
oyal ball into dismay by an untoward faint
ng fiji. which was at once elevated to the
ank of social event. She dresses generally
q careless and sometimes in startling fash
3n. She is small in stature, of an admirable
orm, and rides. with certain dash, both to
ounds and in Rotten Row.
