The Tord of rfarPintoni,
By JAMES PAYN.' - .
Society ianotlVery exacting in the,
matter tf personal respectability;
but there are iniportant occasions;
such as the night of= : the Botanical
Fete in- the Regent Park—which is
to her.whilesome nocturnal festival
of, the Church is to. the 'religious
world—on which she :demands the
production or Vouchers. I 4ontt
know that anything comes - of this
precaution't \ exCept politelYing ; but:
she. has; is she flatters herself, .dis-
charged her conscience'. (though as
'matterof fact it left her, without]
warning, many generations ago) and]
washed her dainty bands' of the mat- ,
1
ter. Now, if ever society 'should - re-1
quire a permanent personal guarantee,
of this kind--say, a season ticket to;
be renewed , every year when Botteni
Itow begins to fill—in my own ease,
I should know where to go for it
