FdshiOnd6ie Movements. s.-I here is mo- thing that the world around us are so anxious to learn as the fashionable movements of the haul lon in this mighty city. How could the small cor11s de reserUe that trip it lightly in Boston, Philadelphia, or Baltimore, get along without having an example set for them from New-York?- According to the accounts of modern. travellers, there exists much semi barbarism in these four cities. We will not state how muc;,, because people who travel into such remote parts, and touch places be- yond the magic circle of fashion, are toooften given to romancing and story telling.

 The haus ton here, is proceeding in the splendid march of fashion. On New Years Eve the "hssembles" commenced at the Ci- ty Hotel, in the most splendid style, the grand Saloon of that magnificent establishment having been most elegantly and tastefully ft- ted up for the season. No fewer than one hundred and three gentlemen and sixty-nine ladies of the first rank of fashion were present which is considered very large quantity of fa9bion Tn apopu!ation of only 213 1000 souls. These are the very elite of socety-the cream of the beau monde. Not particle of vulgar ism was permitted to show itself. Several new beauties graced the occasion with the;r bright eyes-an odd de6utante or two, were brought cut, besides several distfnpues of both sexes who have just returned from the tour of Europe. Iris true, only about enc twentieth of those present, could boast that their families had merged from obscurity if teen years age--but what of that? Money is every thing now days.

 The style of manner is now very much im- proved. There is delicate repose--a softness ot tapproach-a ealmness of mind, thatwins it's way irresistibly to the heart. The dashing, romping, tumultuous mirth, .s banished to Philadelphia orBoston, but particularly to Bal timore. The pitch of the conversational tore is fallen into most beautiful and sentimental whisper. In point cfdress, there is also muc h improvement. The married 6cies dress a good deal too much-probablyt this arises from the unreformed taste of the husbands; but our young ladies array themselves with the utmos, simplicity, and in the purest taste. A new dance of the most bcwitchng character has just been imported from France. It is called Ia gaiiohade. It is one of the most extatic movements that ever was invented. It is en- tirely revolutionary discovery, never having been known till after the trois jours de Paris. Many curious anecdotes are told of it's origin and its effects. It can only be perpe- trated in large ball room, and hence it has not been able to squeeze itsway yet into small private parties of thousand each. This splendid dance is performed in paris, as the ruaitz, but it is much more rapd--is angular where that is scircular, and rsqu e much skill, science, and particularly mastery over eve " motion. There is not so much whirling in it as in the waltz, and hence the ladies lke it better. On the occasion refs rred to, it was danced with great splendor and eeiat.

 At the supper tables, the superb cuisine c! Jennings shone forth in awful magnifcence. Several new dishes, pyramids, Slc. have beer also recently invented, but we are bound to si- 1ence on this head. sz

 Under the new regime, the assemblies are now managed with great skill and effect.- Three years ago, the tri-colored flag wa: hoisted--an effort was made to reform-the radical system was banished-the close COT. pcration was introduced, and the beau mondt now fiourishes in the highest degree.
