tu1r "a sorv0 ON IN SOCIETY.

Clb seem TO have reused the dormant en-
thkiasm OF amateur artists. and several
"hlsicals" have resulted thorefrom during
thlpast week. On Tuesday evening Mrs. W.
MARTY Little and Miss Constance Setback
sak most charminGly TO largo company AZ
sslbled at Mrs. schack's. Mr.. Schlesinger
aid gave some delightful r0citals at Mrs.
II]ss on Thursday afternoon. Miss Rives
snk, Miss Stevens played. and Mr.. Korbay
ssk ono or two Of his own COMPOSITIONS with
meh spirit and expression. Sir Henry Mey-
setThompson was among the guests.
Wednesday. whom the Huguenots was given
FOL tho second time. was field might at tho
Mtropolttan. The house was a. crowded rs
stany time during the autumn season, and
dImonds and pretty faces were pleasantly
numerous. Tho Gayest box In the house was
Nh. Bradley Martins. where the manly ele-
mint mustered In great strength Mrs. Girls
vAd Gray accompanied Mrs. Martin. and both
lsies looked extremely we'll In low black
dbssos with . profusion Of diamonds. Mrs.
Otden Mills. who was In Mrs. Astor's box. wore
fll dress with u coronet OF diamonds. Mrs.
Nn Rensselaer, Cruger and Mrs. George L.
Rvos were together and Miss Swan was with
lr. and Miss McAllister. Mise Langdon was
dso present and Miss Turnure; indeed. a bet
br society display has not been seen at the
Metropolitan this year.
A Flower Show" has pleasant sound. when
March winds are blowing. or March skies are
Weeping above u.s. and Mr.. Klunder was wise
n his generation when no issued his invita-
tons amid the fog and gloom OF last week.
Tho wonders Of the KIunder glasshouses were
most advantageously arranged; but tho elect
o. society turned out In such force TO enjoy
them that inanimate nature was almost
e,llpsed by the living beauties that surrounded
her. So many fresh young faces. unadorned
BY new bonnets or spring fineries. are not often
gathered together at this season. and the
young men present seemed to appreciate the
fact as they were buying roses with reckless
lavishness and presenting them to their
favorite bellies Complaints are loud just now
In England. By the way. OF the advancing price
OF cut flowers. Probably the grumblers never
had occasion to buy bouquet in this city.
Largo dinners have been given during the
week by Mrs. Baylis. Mrs. G.. G.. Haven. and
Mrs. Henry Parish. Miss Susan Ludlow was
the favored guest at Mrs. Parish's dinner.
which was given In honor OF Miss Ludlow's
engagement to Mr.. Horny Parish. Jr.
Tho engagement Of Miss Sallie Mnrie and
Mr.. James J. Jones' is ono Of tho few matches
that arc smiled upon approvingly BY all. for
both arc young and charming. with hosts OF
friends. and the fortune. which ia something
more than competence as 1t should be- Is on
tho gentleman's side.
The Gardeners Riding Club In Fifty-sev-
enth street was crowded last Saturday evening
with hosts OF pleasant people, and a moro
agreeable lounge could hardly be found. The
feats Of horsemanship throw Barnum's and
Long Island hunting runs quite into the shade.
Mr.. Wharton and Mr.. Hollister ride not one.
