Miss Neilson as a Popular Beauty.

I Miss Neilson, who has hitherto received in England only the ordinary attention which is due to a good actress, is rapidly becoming the. lioness of the season, vice Mrs. Langtry snuffed out. People will go to the Adelphi to see £15,000 worth of diamonds, who would not go there to see “Julia.” I don’t know how Miss Neilson managed eventually to bestow these diamonds about her dress, but Mme. White, the countouriere, flatly declined to trust her young ladies with stones of such value, fearing probably that even the ease and opulence of a milliner apprentice would not place them quite beyond the bounds of temptation. Tne black horse, black habit, and raven tresses of Miss Neilson which now appear so attractive to the jeunesse doree of the row, will perhaps also succeed in altering the hours of riding. Miss Neilson’s professional engagements force her to leave the park at 5 o’clock, and when the light goes out it can hardly be expected that many will remain to grope in darkness.—[Mayfair. • Conjugal felicity, says the Albany Argus, depends largely upon mutual confidence. “I make it a rule,” said a wiseacre to his friend, “to tell my wife everything that happens. In that way we manage to avoid any misunderstanding.” Not to be outdone in generosity, the friend replied: “Well, sir, you are not as open and frank as I am, for I tell my wife a great many things that never happen.”
