MOONLIGHT and Poetry.

A ball followed dinner that night,
Wednesday. The ample Longing
room filled up rapidly after coffee;
officers in smart uniforms and spurs,
whose principal function in times OK
pence Is to get in everybody's way,
rowel exposed ankles, and demolish
lace ruffles. Egyptians and Turks and
sleek Armenians In somber western
frock and scarlet eastern fez or tar
boosh, women of all colors (meaning,

tastes, the lean and the tat, the tall
and short, such as Billy Taylor Is said
to have kissed IN ali the ports, and
tail-coats of as many styles as Jo-
seph's mad patches. George could dis

the trousers round the tnstep; the
Englishman had his fitted at tho
waist and trusted in Providence for
the hang Of the rost. This tritiing de-
tective work rather pleased George
The women, however, were oil Ewes

full white skin, the bare effect being
modified by string of pearls or dia-
monds or emeralds, and hair which
might or might not have been wholly
their own. He waited rcstlessly for
the temperance OF Mrs. Chedsoye
and her daughter. All was right with

been returned, and he knew that his
former suspicious had been most UNI
worthy. Mrs Chedsoye had never
received his note.
