 Dear Sally-Your Tim, in his last let ter, said as how you wanted me to write something about the women folks ill Nev-York. My acquaintance aint mo- thln to speak of among em, but I've had lcetle experience that way as yon shall hear. Your old maid aunt Louis, who is dead and gone used to say, looks is nothin, behaviour is all, and l guess as 10 looks the York gals aint got much to boast on. They arc most on em pale and sickly looking critters, which comes of the keepin bad hours and tight la- cin. They keep it up night after night in the winter time, with balls and par ties, so that they get completely flag ged out and looks as though if was the day after. washin.

 As for dress, there is no tellin how ex- travagant they are-thcir bonnets are as big as q cheesc-tub, and the sleeves of. their gowns are large enuH for meal bags. But the most comical thing some of them wear, is a sort of trowserloon5 that peeps out under their gowns and make em look jist like bantum hens.- You n laugh most plagily to see em strut ten in the streets, but lis no laffin joke to their fathers who have to foot their bills. !leara great many men eofi- plain about their wives too, because they are so extravagant in their dress. One man went the other day to a law yer here to get him to set his seal to bill of divorce against his wife-the lawyer axed him the reason and he said he couldn't pay her bills no lon ger and if the civil authorities didntin- terfere, he'd take the benefits of the act or run off to the Canadas. The lawyer laughed and told him there was no help for his case-that he took his wife for better or worse and must abide the con- sequences. sThat's factm says the married man, "but tis all zrorse with my wife and sec no chance of her being any 6etterp and with that he went home, packed up his duds and the next morning left his wife fast asleep and set of for the Canadas.

 l said they Kept IL up Tn the winter here with balls and parties, but you musn't suppose they dance the good old fashioned country dances we nsed to at Deacon Browns. Nosuch thing. when they have a dance here, they call it a maskerade or fancy ball and they go dressed in as many different ways as you've seen solgers at malitia muster they look for the world more like play actors and play addresses than hu- man beings, and ast hey wear masks they cut up pretty curious shines ] tell you. At one of these ere fanciful balls gal got in there who want jist so, as some o the other gals thought, and they made 2 mighty fuss about it, you may depend
