SOCIETY, MUSIC AND ART. (All matters of interet and items of news, whether in the city or State, proper for this department, will be printed if properly authenticated.] Review of the Week. Social matters are almost at a stand still. Occasionally an invitation is received fora ‘‘tea or “dinner" formal, but it is rare. If one ventures to undertake the exc-rtion of entertaining in this way, at present, it is with regret before the affair is over. That element of human nature capable of catering to social codes and conventionalism finds endurance and patience exhausted under the enervating effect of the present weather. The events of last week are summed up in the picnic given by Miss Margaret Butler and Mr. Geo. Porter, the moonlight picnic entertainment by Mr. C has. Sbotwell; the “coffee" by Mrs. Wm. Judson, and the tennis and lawn party given by Mr. Jesse Fletcher. Mr. and Mrs. Jacob Eldridge cele brated their golden wedding, and Mr. J- W. Pet ticord entertained members of the Geo. H. Chap man Post. There is very little promised for next week, yet probably there will enough transpire to keep the remnants of social life in the city from stagnation. Society.
