THE FIRST COTILLON.

The first Of the two subscription dances known
AZ the cotillons was given Sherry's last night.
II was the first large dance of the season, but I'M
like the large subscription balls-the Patriarchs'
and the Assemblies-the dancing began early. The
cotllons were organized two years ago by Mrs.
Philip ]. Sands Mrs. A. Newbod Morris. Mrs.
John Minturn. Mrs. Frederick Goodridge and a few
other ladies who desire to have early dance,
and the success Of the affairs encouraged the or
ganizers to repeat them this winter. Each sub.
scrber has eight invitations to send out. point
is made to invite the young men who are fond of
dancing. Last night with few exceptions the sub
scrbers were present as were the young married
and debutante dancing sets. The guests were re-
ceived in the pink room which was handsomely
decked with palms and drawing-room lamps by
Mrs. Edward King. Mrs. Maturin L. Delafied, Mrs
John T. Hall and Mrs Gouverneur Morris.
Dancing began after 10 O'clock There was
informal dancing for about half an hour before
the cotillon began. Alexander NJ Hadden leading d1s
