Her feet, which wet small and beautifully formed, rested o: the common high straw sandals of th country. Over this dress, which lef tho bosom partly uncovered, she wore a' light cream colored open Jacket, of' muslin texture, with wide sleeves ex tended a little belOw tho elbow; her soft black hnir was beautifully drawn back from off the forehead, and' hound in a peculiar cluster at the back of the head,-' where it was held by two gold pins one of. great length, and with a scorpion like device attached to it, and which Chinese; her features animated and ex-1 pressHe, and her teeth white, and as I finely formed as her entire figure.

Tho Paris correspondent of the ton Traveller sends the following ac-| count of a Huntsman’s Boll lately given in that city: •'* ; r U I may instance one of -the few balls lately given here, for Its oddity. It was given by the’Duke de la Moskowa, tirand Huntsman of the Court. He in vited only one hundred and fifty guests. It was literally a huntsman’s boll. The vestibule, staircase and ante chamber were adorned with hunting trophies, guns, rifles, hunting poignarde, and other similar objects. The orchestra played hunting songs for the guests to dance by, and the waltzes (for there is no hunting song by which one can waltz) were interrupted by various horn accompaniments familiar to sportsmen. Concealed singers accompanied the or chestra by barking, baying, snapping and moaning in tho moat approved canine style, whippers-in crooked their whips, and the game-keepers exploded percussion caps. . T ., f. At a quarter of twelve tile huntsmen, ybippers-in and game-keepers on the staircase blew the tally Jid.and at twelve o’clook they blew the quarry. Wheh the quarry was sounded, the ball room was invaded by a great quantify of gome of all s<nU ll wnich appeared to attack tho Grand Huntsman. These game costumes were excellently gotten up. Tho birds—there were partridges, pheasants, plovers, heath-cocks—were all feathered; the wolves, foxes, hares, stags, deer, were all in the skins of the beasts, with a mask and falsehood of pasteboard faithfully imitating the ap pearance of these animals. Prince de Metternich, the Austrian ’ Ambassador (!), wits the heath-cock; he was dressed and crowed to perfection. It seems this was a surprise even to the master of the house, and it was reckoned in celleht taste and very amusing. A New Fashiox.—A gentleman who has been passing a week or two at one of the large hotels in New York, says there seem to be * mania among the lady-boarders to come to the breakfast and tea-table with a book in their hands but they are never seen to open it.— Our friend was told by a gentleman that he had seen a lady bring the same book to tho tuble for two weeks; and, an op portunity one day offering, his curiosity was excited to see what book could be of so much interest; on opening the volume, to his surprise, he found thaf not one of the leaves had leencutl” Wo hear tho same affectation is obtaining in some of the' hotels in our oity.-vifo- bile Adi'.
