Tho Dance OF . PRINCESS.

A letter from Tifis gives interesting
details of the time the Russian emperor
had been having among the Georgian
noblemen. The mobiles organized a grand
ball at their club house on the Gulovinskl
Prospect, and it is this ball which the
correspondent attended, and of which he
writes most at length as follows:
II seems that the costumes of the men
are marvels of sutlandish brilliancs, and
the men themselves are very 6ns, but the
women. With few exceptions, are plain
and uninteresting. One of the excep.
tions, however, was very marked. She
Princess Eristef, who appeared in the
costume Of the country and danced be.
fore the emperor a dance which is very
famous out there, and which they call
the Lesghinka.
The motive of this dance is to give
some idea what love, is, like and of the
way in which a woman draws a man on
and then gets out of the way at the
critical moment, The princess appears
to have been successful, and she delighted
everybody very much. The striking
feature OF the dance, which seems to
have no particularstep to il, is the ability
displayed by the dancer to move from
one spet to another by a sort Of patter Of
the feet, without apparent motion of the
arms or legs. Eight strange musicians
played while the princess danced. A
tambourine, a guitar, a queer shaped
mandolin and a flute. very different from
most flutes, were some of the instruments
used. The princess was in a dress of light
blue and silver. A sort Of muslin turban
decorated her head, the eflds falling back
to her waist. and broad red stripe running
down the front OF her press made a very
curious costume, and explains the de-
light which his majesty deigned to ex-
hikit.

the hbrous tissues, particularly in the joints, and
causes the local manifestations of the disease, pains
