Ar.ST AND QUEST.

LACE.
The oldest treatise on the sibject of lace was
entitled La Pompe,anit published in 1567. Be
tween 1557' and 103, Vinciolo , issued preiye
editions of his :book on lace, which contained
,a number of beautiful. tterns
After him Wagner:her brOught out Streatise
in font parts,—the first in 1000, aid the second
in 1604, It was published -in Nmearibirg, and
contained tinny splendid' designs. it la. said
that: Albert purer, the great German painter,
was "deeply' Interested in the manufacture of
lace, and invented patterns for his country-wo
men.
Lace making had attained Its- highest devel
opment, both In quantity :and quality: about
the year IM3, At this time It , was wrought In
nearly every Convent in E urope, : and was con
sidered an essential ornament to the dress of
everylady and•gentleman. In Franco It held
\ the place tbat diamonds, do "now, and the pos.
se4sion of it• was it mark of rank, for none but
the nOtkleLwere allowed to wear It. In,order to
keep, the • beautiful fabric for the exchtsive use
of the upper, classes, edicts were frequently Is
sued forbidding all persons outside the privl
ledged ciri-les. t s\decorate their apPgrel with

proper condition and disposition of Is* about

suits of isie. _Many a young ' man, f infebted
with the passion.of the times; mini& himself
in the effort to outshine his .companions in the
trimniings eic his surtout and bouts. .
In 1604, the Parliament of ToUlouSe issued
an •order 'prohihlting the wearing of lace, be-\
cause so nanny women were ernployo tti Its
wantliacture that. nn ismate_sorvasta_un...s. _ .
be bad in the town ; and, moreover; it was fin
possible to distinguish between the nobles and
the common people
In 1704, it is said that one-fourth of
.the pop
ulation of France between 0 and eg were en
gaged, directly or iwlireetly, in the . production
of lace. This calculation includes the makers, .
of pins, scissors, parchment and thread And the
peddlers who sold the fabric In different coun
tries.'
At one time a burquality of lace was made in
Russia, but the industry, has declined as Rus
sian ladies prefer the manufactures of France.
There is a dispute about the antiquity of lace
malting but Mr. Seguin,, a late authority on
the subject, argues learntdly to. glow "Int it
waa introduced into Europe but a short time
?tier to, the publication of the Allrst, books on
lace.
A CITY AV ITIIOUT WOMEN.
There ks a great scarcity of women it- Ha
vana.. There are at least tin,* 'times more
males t3Lart females. Hardly any other women
than negrmum are to be seen about: Ladles
with my pretension to youth and bauty would
sooner die than venture out tinpiotected, even
for their early mass ; and so uncommon is dui
sight of decent women unattended In 'the street
that foreign ladies, unaCquainted with the cus
tom, and sauntering from shop to shop; become
the ob r jects of a curioshy not In.quently degen
,
crating into impertinence.
The.eausetif this 'is that, besideis the priests,
and soltherit ,end sailors, the 'croiids of Span
ish ,immigrants are attractal there by high
wages] andtlo nut of course take their families.
Among the ppper :classes hn exclusive male so
ciety is cttltiyated. The charms of cafe and
club life, such ai they are, wean the' Havana
hush' ands Irum a home where real feminine ac
complishments are as unknown as hearth rugs
and tire irons.
Housekeeping in the tows. and still more In
tliu suberbi, is terribly u Rhin . work. Man's
life iu Havana is wholly out of 'doors, while for
women there is no' life within t tham. ,In no
town in France or Italy are there so many, or,
proportionately, such sumptuous and constant
ly crowded caliso and restaurants. .•
The ilayine • merchant is as eagerlarmake
money as hi is • to squander it. But the town:
supplies little besides gross material enjoyment
for his money. A. box in his third rate opera.
a drlie in his dreary padro,•are all the amuse
ments he can 'have in common with his wife
and daughter. For the rest of the women are
left to mope at, home, playing bopeep with the
passers by• from their window gratiugs, or pas
ing.tbe flat roofs of their houses like so many .
