A Milliner at Court.
IjOXDon* society is supposed to be shocked by the fact that a prominont milliner lasb week ran tho gauntlet of the Lord Chamberlain and was presented at the last loveo. A writer in " Vanity Fair" says : " The liberal views entertained by Her Majesty as to who are the propor persons to be received afc her drawing-rooms were strongly illustrated the other day. In one issue of tho ' Morning 1 Past ' the admiring public read that Mrs Isaacsons had been presented at the draw-ing-room. A week later the same admiring public, on reading tho account of an action at lav/, ascertained that the lady in question was no other than Madame Elize, the Regent-street milliner. I wonder if any of tho ladies she rubbed shoulders with had ever been, through their husbands, served with writs for unpaid bills, and if so how , did they like the meeting ?"
A Liverpool contemporary, under the head " local amusements," gives an account of a fire that destroyed some thousand pounds' worth oi property. Rather odd fun !
