About & dozen ladies, including four or Bye from | Portland and Carieton, fad charge of the af- fair. They invited fifteen or twenty other iadies and about thirty young men. Toe in witations to the latter were printed, a trae | \ knot gracing each corner of the card. invitations set forth that ‘the pieasure of Mr. —'s company ts earnestly reques St a leap year party, to be held ai Mrs. — St. James street, on Thu: » Febraary 1576, by a number of ageadle young tadies,” &o. young men were more t & little surprised on ing At the house ) Oung ladies with whom they were well ac- Quainted, so well, indeet, that gossiping tongues have bad it that there were many “matebes” among them. The folding doors opened; one of the wle you ladies” commenced to play ‘Mendelstouns ano, and each uiring of the uemen oY . yen on inqult gen . “Are you en- gaged for this "it having been pr viously @pnouvced that dancing would form a of the evening's entertainment. Alits conclusion the ladies marchedgtheir rtners to sests, leaving them with polite Rows. Then one of the ladies walked s jowly vp and down the room, and the others began singing: *‘Here comes the Queen of Dover; the has lately come over, and let her be of fended or no; If she be not offended she will be attended by ali the respect that we owe, owe, owe!” Then “the Queen” selected & young man from tbe company, and both walked ap and down the room while others sang: “Here wre the King and Queen of Dover,” &c. Then another lady walked the floor, the first song was repeated, and she selected a geatie- man to accompany her through the room. And so the play Went on until all hands were promenading the floor. When the young men were being bowed to their seats ibis time it was proposed that the ladies should kiss them. Ail were agreeable to this except one pretty damsel, who declared: “I won't; I never kissed any person except mamma fn my life.” Sooner than that the play should not be carrie! out she allowed Ube gentleman who had marched with her to kiss ber. Immediately after this one of the young men was the victim of a crue! jok¢. It was thought that another dance was to be calle! on. He was approached by @ lady—a sister of bis “girl”—who asked: “Are you en- gaged?” “No,” be replied. “Will you take me for @ partner?” further queried the lady. “Certainly,” was his answer. Then she turned to the rest of the company, aud witn an airof triumph exclaimed: “Do you hear that? He bas agreed ladies all said they had he: engagement. The young man was bewildered for a few moments. Then he tried to explatn that he had tg bt) to be her partner in the dance. She declared that she had not mentioned anything about adance, but had ‘poppet the question” fairly and ‘squarely. fe was given till that night week to make up his mind as to whether he would carry out his engagement, and al! the others voted that, if he did not marry her, she would kill bim, as did an American girla young man who refused her ofter of marriage lately. It was next proposed to play “ post office.” The folding doors were partly closed and jadies got into the back room, leaving the young men in the front. The former then tn turn announced: “I bave a letter for you.” One by one the young men entered the back room and were ‘required to pay postage In kisses for @ piece of paper o0 which was written—I love you.” This was followed by “spin the plate,” «kissing pigeon fashion,” “measuring love ribbon,” and “cherry pick- ing,” during which about a dezen of promises of marriage were made. The party was bronght to a close by an amusing incident. One of the ladies bad shown a desire during the whole of the even- ing to have & few moments’ conversation with @ certain young man. He was put on bis guard by a lady friend and managed to give fhe anxious one the “cold shoulder” for Unree or four hours. While he was resting on & chair in a corner, away from the rest of the company, she drew a chair alongside and seated herself upon it.
