rWTflSEir Dancings—I dare say my reader has d the scarcely disguised impatience with which obS nt ^ ries of Terpsichore look on at infantine danc-Bd rham he has felt it himself--perhaps the writer iDg ^ one so in W time . Yet the dancing of children ^•? sooth a p leasant and a pretty sight ; and I have 1 S > felfc this more strongly than on occasions when fi flodr has suddenly been taken -possession of by vlv dancers in immediate succession to these Srt ^ ones . Compare the performances of both , and will not need a better proof that grace is natural ¦ y ° J acquired ; nay more , that it may be lost by Z traintog andjnjtfddUr . I was following mth
, eves the crowd of little bright joyous things , and Sinkinff there was grace in all their movementsace equally in the perfeot danolng of some , and in + h bounding disregard of art in others—in their boldor b ashfuhaess—demu reness or riot ;^ -there was ^ ace I thoug ht , in the small curly , velvet-tuniok-ed w of seven or eight pulling the muslin skirt of a Lettv lass of ten , with the urgent plea— " I say , will vou dance with me ? do now / ' and in the precocious coauetry of the two-tailed fairy as she disengaged
her-« . if with a , pirouette from the hands , of her , too juvenile suitor and flung from her laughing blue eyes such an irresistible invitation to a smart yotmg iniddy of the Savannah as brought him instantly to her side . Away they flew round the room m each other ' s arms and in the polka , that child ' s dance par excellence s and some chord in my memory had just been struck by the p iteous spectacle of the poor little mortified fellow , who , biting his finger and slowly shaking his wee round figure , at ; length ran and buried his face
in the lap of a lady ; my attention , I say , was thus engrossed , when—poof ! into the midst of the lilliputian throng rushed a human ayalanehe , la the shape of a foil-grown— -a very full-grown couple of polkists ! The cavalier though not old was fattish , and had a small round spot of baldness on the ' crown of his head * the lifidy an exorbitant crenoline . The poetry of the scene vaniahed in a moment I— Oar Antipodes , g y lilETTT .- Coii . MitNdY . Tub Laughing- Jackass .- —He jpommences , then , by a low cackling sound , gradually growing louder , like that of a hen in a fuss . Then , suddenly changing
his note , he so closely imitates Punch ' s penny trumpet that you would almost swear it was indeed the jolly " roo-to-to-tao" of that public favourite you heard . Next comes the prolonged bray of an ass , done to the life ; followed by an articulate exclamation , apparently addressed to the listener , sounding very like " O what a Guy ! " And the whole winds up with a suppressed chucklo , ending in an uproarious burst of laughter , which is joined in by a dozen othors hitherto sitting silent . It is impossible to hear with a grave face the jocularities of this feathered jester- In spite of all reasoning I could never help feeling that It was myself he was quizzing !—Our Antipodes , by Col . Mttndy . is
The Virtues qe a Sime Umbbella . ^—It a prevalent idea among many men , that a silk umbrella is an exceedingly genteel thing . They therefore have an article of this kind , which they are always carrying in a neat , careful manner , so as to show that it is silk . They sccni to feel ns if they thought all right when they have their silk umbrella in their hand : it is a kind of patent of respectability . With a silk umbrella , thoy could meet the highest personages in the land , and not be abashed . —Chambers ' a Pocket Miscellany , vol . iv
Hands the Sign or Raoe . —Thero are some men who cultivate white hands , with long fair nails . For nothing else do they care very particularly—all ia well , if only their hands bo neat . Thero is even a ridiculous notion , that elegant hands are the most unequivocal test of what is cnlled good birth . I can say , for my own part , that the finest hands I over saw belonged to a woman who kept a butchor ' s shop in Mussolburgh . So much for the nonsonHO about fine hands . — Chambers '' s Pocket Miscellany , vol . iv .
