Such a vishm of purity and loveliness ns she wan did not nft"ii en ter a .Now York drawinu room. She gave her hand first tA Mm. Cadu-nladcr and then to Wallie. Tho latter grasiied it cordially, mid swined about to sav Bonietliing, but suddenly chocked hiin K'lf, and lisiki'd at ber with an odd. per plexed expression, iiko a man who is ti.ken by suiiirise. .Doubtless much beauty would bo a sui-prise to 4iny one. After n inoinent's hesitation hr said. Tin glad to welcome yon to this coun try, mademoiselle, i hope yon will learn to fool like an American ns much ns ynu already look like one." "Thank you: if it is American to feel happy then I am one," she answered, and it was observtvbla as she spoke that this foreign lady's pronunciation was re markably accaruto. Wallie forbore to make (he observatMm, however; he only took .his chin between his thumb and forefinger with a quietly smiling look. Mrs. Cadwiilnder said: "Wht deli cious luce, Mademoiselle Marana! It is like frost work on iuory. Will jvu take a cup '4 tea?" AIlWi. Marana deer; nod, and presently the other guests begin to arrive. Them was Mr. Brnvliffo, a wool mer chant, but for social purposes an ami tear com poser. He was a small, slender, lively nan, with gray hair and an im niense gray mnstache, like a great bar across the lower part of his face; bn had Che air of always standing on tiptoe to peep across this bar with a sportive, twinkling expression. There was Mr. Bidgood, a rosy, roistering, spherical Certs muge, bald headed and short of reath; he smiled nt yon with a pene trating look, as if there wore a private joke between you and himself which it would cot do to mentiou. There was Mr. Orasmere, toll, courtly and romantic, with a resonant voice and an occasional gleam from beneuth his tipper eyelids, as if his soul were kindling within him. Ho had been a lawyer by profession, but had married well, and was now the proprietor of tin artistic weekly. There was Mr. Knight, a dis tinguished politician with fresh com plexion, clear cut features, powerful black eyes uud snow white hair; his bearing was covertly condescending, us though he were reluctant to have you realize how greatly ho was your supe rior. Thero was Mr. Damon, also white haired and white Ix arded, a somewhat unsuccessful publisher, but gifted with warm heart, a keen wit and a bitter tongue, Tliero was a certain uuconveii. tii mnl wrath ami hent iilmut him, iiiixeil with laughter mnl miN'kery, mid iinlli liitf Ki'i'tiied to delight him ho much as tn chock n fn ti li'iiis pi isou nr to Imlly a hiimliui; Tliei'i- we.s Mr. riiimter, u ttentlouin't nil prolile nud eyeglasses, with a Knit ItiK voice, n retentive metiiiiry mrl . :i insallalile earnestness, lie was iresi dent 'if (he American branch of lb Sn cicly 1' ir the Scientific llive-li.u'd ii.li of Stip' :ii.,tuinl I'heiionieii'i, mnl his nor mnl t. !1 it ii t:i was one of liU'i insulin i,t and e.'.positiiiii.

But why eoiitiniie? Tim peculiarity of New York society is Clint no two pciplc j are nliko; you huve to focus yourself uuiw for every jsTson you nioet; when as abroad the difficulty is tn distinguish Mr. Smith from .Mr. Brown and Mrs. Jotvs from Mrs. Ilohinson. Pwiple there Fccm to bo born, im-d and niolded in platoons; tho various social grades each has tho saiiio traditions, the same pros ports, the sumo resources, tho same top ics of conversation, tho Bni.no tailors, and theisauio faces. Cut iu New York ive have not 'ttled down yet; our people have v.hat may be called a New York look, but there is no New York typethe former being a trick of facial expression merely; the latter a matter of feature and struct ure. But we ore preparing to people a hemisphere, while the European nations haw to pack themselves together like sardines in a box, or pickles in a jar. mathematically, economically and ir revocably, uud by natural selection have long since lost their lbows and idiosyn crasies. We are ail .elbows ou this side of tto water, especially since we have ceaned any longer to be all fists and shoulders. Iu Addition to the guests above men tioned there were voral of our older acquaintances Gen. Inigo, Hamilton Jocelyn and Bollingham. When dinner was announced Wallie Dinsmore took in Mile. Marana and seated her at his right iand, and it turned out that Bel linghaui sat next below her, much to his displejuure. Ho told himself that he owed Wallie one. On the other sidn of him sat Mrs. Bright, whom, indeed, be had taken into the table. The other gentlemen thought that Bellinghara had nothing to complain of. Mrs. Bright, who could interest herself about almost anything, provided it did not last more than an hour or so, noticed that ber companion was good looking, and deter mined to exploit him ou the subject of architecture. She had read Ruskin's "Stones of Venice," and had seen classio and medimvul antiquities abroad. Accordingly she rode at him with great dash and courage, and at first be answered her graciously enough. Bo fore long, however, he perceived that she did not know the meaning of her own information, and then he became laconic. Young Mrs. Bright, on the oth er hand, wus not accustomed to rebuffs, and Bcllingliuui's reticence only stimu lated her euterpri.se. Hhe sparkled on like cataract in a ruiubuw. determined that hn slinitM fall In love wilh Tier at any rate. Meanwhile his oilier enr was be ing vlslled occasionally by the low and varied music of ft voice tho freshest mid most melodious, he thought, he had ever listened to. At times, ton, as tho dishes were passed, the lovely speaker would lean toward him, so that her soft white plum ago brushed his shoulder. The Mu rium mid Wallie were having a most en- laiiiing conversation. It was not about nr"!iitecture, and yet llelliugham felt at : ;.i I' d by it. Wallie was smiling and cliiieklitnr. mnl ever and anon mak ing some pithy or arch remark. The diva ws-ined to bo attempting to deserilH' the mcutm visions which certain kinds of music called tip for ber. At last she said, "The end Is liko 'the awful rose of dawn,' mid it bismiis to keep unfolding more and more, but the twilight darkens between, mid you can only feel that the great flower blooms at last in the morn ing of the other World." At the same Moment Mrs, llright was mi v one to lli'lhiigliain: "In that way, don't yo'l see, the necotid and third boxes Would have just as good a view of the Hl'ige as the first, mid yet tho parquet v.- iiildu't li'i- anything. Now, isn't that iv nice piii'i?" ho.h r H: Ilinijium hud not heard her Wflse Ii- didn't think it worth whib; tn answer. Id' turned tn the yming diva and said. "That limit bo D-etlioven." Wallie's eyebrows went lip. Ho had been quietlv watching liellinghmn, and had been much imnised by bin evident diitractlnn and llnal surrender. He linked Mr. Knight, in tho second seat on bis left, whether it were true that (Irani Intended to found a college of politics iu Mexico, mid left the young people to ar range themselves ns they lilted. Mrs. Bright turned pale, took up a silver pepper Imx, and overwhelmed her criKpiette lie volaille with red peps-r. Blinded by her indignation, she was ou the point of put I ini n piece of the highly condimented viand In her mouth, when (Jen.

"Oh, I'm awfully obliged," returned Mrs, Bright, really feeling so on more tecMiiiils than one, though she had never Is'fom been able to endure Unit horrid Tree mid easy impresario. Sins over came her repugnance, and recouped her sell' fur l!i llingbam's scant court.-.;;.' by fxtractimr whole hcgiheads of it l'toi i the ample reservoirs of h'T other neigh rior. After all it .imniiiited tn the same thing. No a woman receives att'-ntin.-i. it is Kir.all odds whence it cnutes. BclliugliHiii mid the diva meantime had taken a short rut ton mutual under standing, mnl wiuild have been aston ished, had they --stopped to think about it, lit the vistas -nf sympathetic feeling that were opening up before them. Suii idiino arose on their way, nad they Tumbled onward at their will. To t ill; with tho priiiii. donna on a subject that attracted her was like dr.fcv.-ing har monics from sumo exquisite inst runic:. t. She responded tn the lightest touch, and yon could sin? the promi.se and invitation of music in br-r face liefon- yon spoke. -EU'llitigham forgot that this was the woman whole adventure and audacities everybody hud been discussing for weeks past; she wis to him a delicious outlet for a part of his nature which he had heretofore repressed even when by him .self; so tlit seed first discovers itself in the earth. Mid the flower in tho sunlight. When, half an hour ago, he had been presented to Mllo. Marana in the draw ing roomJio had felt that she was beau tiful, but remembered that she must be repellent, and had passed on without a second look. She, ou the other hand, bad been sensitive to fcis hostility, told herself tlmt he looked cross and frigid, and thought it fortunate that ho was an architect instead of a singer, liable to appear with her on the stage. But now, under the mingled persuasion of happy accideut uud the gnoiul stimulus of lights, .enmpany and the table, their Averted (regards had unawares turned to .accord (Mi accord which might prove ttemporaty, but was certainly delightful. Jt was strange to both -of them, but with the sort istf strangeness that seems like a sweet fumiliarity till now forgotten. Sow they would let air And warmth into the secret chambers of their minds; now they could read the answer to their spiritual riddles in each other's face. At the other end f tho table Mrs. Cad walader was prospering blithesomely with Mr. Orasmere oa one hand ant Mr. Baanjlyilo on the otltrr. The conver sation was of un CDsthetio cast would the Wagnerian method of musical com position prevail, and if so, would not music ultimately be chargeable with in fringing on the preserves of the other arts? Mr. Burclytfe, propping up his mustache orcawionully with his napkin, was of opinion that uiusio was the soul and reconciliation of all the arts, and that a knowledge of musio would hence forth be' Indispensable to enable the painter, the sculptor uud the poet to do their work intelligently. "As to archi tecture," added he, "we nil know tlmt in its higher manifestations it lias been termed frozen musio," "Sonio of Wag ner's musio tlmt I have heurd," retorted Mr. Orimmcre, "was dry enough to be callHi harmonized hay lofts." This epigram was overheard by Mr. Damon lit. tho center of the table, find lie iiir.'i ''.!: ly e. ., I oi.t. i n-n-'s a portrait of Hrasiiii-ri. ilo.vii at l ie club that is said to have bei ii p iinle I to t' lime the old cow died of." lliTeupim Mr. Bidgo'sl burst into a hearty laugh mid observed that the old cow pi-ob.-iblv died from feeding on the harmonious liny loft. Mr. (Inisniere, who was prob ably of Scutch extraction, drew himself up to his full height mid said tn Mrs. (.'adwiihidcr, with a gleam from beneath Ills eyelids, that sm ll men as tho lasl Iwo speakers did more thim vice or Igno rance to delay civilization. Mrs. Cad walader smiled wilh s-inlet litis, mid said In her small, caressing voice, "The proprietor of tho 'Professional Amateur cannot believe that civilization is c laved."
