There is another young man of good
family and considerable wealth who
hourishes here. He usually belongs to
the Knickerbocker and Union clubs,
dresses with pronounced affectation
of everything that is English, wears
single glass, and is society man by
profession. have such a man in mind.
His name seldom gets into the papers,
and he never, by any chance, does any
thing that will bring him before the
public. He has served as chairman on
the committee of application Of both of
his clubs, and he knows the inside his
tory of every prominent family in New
York. His grooms, horses, carriages,
and, indeed, everything but his house,
are English, and. as he was educated
at Oxford, it is difficult to believe that
he is not really an Englishman. He
speaks of the Prince of Wales as ''the
prince" as if there was only one
prince, and he was one of his subjects,
and he knows Burke's '.Peerage" by
heart. He drives Il coach, and refuses
ten invitations where he accepts one.
He prides himself on being asked to the
most exclusive entertainments, and
spends weeks Of thought on the six lit
tie dinners that he gives every season.
He gossips pleasantly with women,
reads the prayer-book, and is detested
by every man he knows except his par
asites. His success with fashionable
women is simply amazing. He is thin
and angular. His time is divided up
SO that he walks and drives on the
avenue at stated hour every day, and
he is altogether what he has always
striven to be-a distinguished society
man. He never goes below Twenty
third street. There are not more than
half dozen such gorgeous beings in
New York.
Another man who is often met is the
younger son of wealthy widow or q
careless father, who is allowed SO, 900
or SIS, 900 for pin money, besides the
debts he manages to contract with his
tailor and florist. This specimen very
often gets into the papers, has numer-
GUS intrigueS with actresses, considers
himself a frightfullv wicked specimen
of humanity when he succeeds in lug
ging some woman of the stage off to
supper, and cultiyates round shoulders
and wearied, exhausted, and dissi-
pated expression. He drinks absinthe
cocktails, talks continually about wom-
en-, and passes with the younger MEM
bers of his set as an awfuily bad man.
1t is not infrequently the case that
this youth-there are great many of
the kind in New York-imagines him.
self very much more depraved and
wicked than he really is. His father
usually knows which way the wind is
blowing, and allows the boy to have
his swing. After ne has sown his wild
oats the young man not infrequently
settles down into solid. good-natured
and thorough-going business man. He
then affects the blase air of man who
has seen everything in the world, and
gives fatherly- advice to other young
men who are endeavoring to spend
large incomes after the manner which
he affected. The young spendthrifts
are commonly the most agreeable men
in the world. Once in while you will
find one who is pulled up at his own
but, as rule, he has the
good nature of a high hver.-Neso York

An Abyssinian Belle.

With the large majority of the native
females in Turkey, the prevailing tint
is yellow. Nine out of ten of them are
pigeon-toed and all the blondes have
freckles. They never wither and dry
up in growing old, as do the natives to
the north and west but fatten and
grow oily, developing ridges where
there ought to be hollows, growing at
the edges and settling in height, until
at early womanhood they have no
more shape or figure than Hubbard
squash.
If were to have my choice of the
whole invoice, l should take an
Abyssinian brunette. They are di-
vinely tall and slender and black as
the ace of spades. The features are
clearly cut and regular, the eyes liquid
and the lips red and full. The hair is
black and waving. but somewhat coarse
in fiber. They dress in pure white.
and the black face and red lips against
the white setting of the burnous give
an effect that is rs enchanting as a
picture.-Sdn Francisco Chronicle.
