Last week the Mail and Ex. press gave jte readers a rare treat by print 'ES" some very , Pertinent .. r'J rules for those behs* introductions. When invited to a party you can address any one you may ESa -n wltbont havlD? ? i^uccon; the general intro duct.on as you enter the room is sufficient, and all are supposed inv^P?naneqUalit3'when "?U8 If you have a letter of intro duct,ontoalady,> send it in by hflK,S?rIaDt'aDdas she'"lpro 1M . m th? parlor' liD8era little to give her time to read it. RECOGNITIONS AND 6ALUTA , TIONS. The superior in rank and sta tion should first salute the in ferior; great intimacy may oc casionally warrant the disregard of this regulation. If you meet a lady in the street and offer your hand, do not per 'VakiB* your ?love off first if there is any difficulty in so doing. On meeting a lady in the street do not detain her. but walk by her side during the communica tion. You will, of course, raise your hat in bidding her adieu, which should be at the corner of the street. If you speak for a short time to a lady in the open air, intend ing to leave her directly, remain uncovered, unless she twice de sires you to put on your hat. If a lady with whom you are walking should be bowed to, you will return the salute. Use that hand which is the most distant from the person saluted ; if on the right of the lady, use your right hand, and vice ferns. Let your salutation denote the degree of your respect for the person saluted. If a gentleman raises his hat' when saluting you, never fail * do the same. Merely motioning toward the nat is usually suffi cient. DRESS AND FASHION. Let your dress harmonize with your appearance. The same style of the hair, color of the cravat or cut of the coat may appear preposterous in one in dividual and appear elegant in another. Let your jewelry be remarka ble for its taste and intrinsic excellence ; select and not osten-. tatious in its ubundance. Clean linen, white as snow, is indispensable if you wish to sup port the appearance of a gentle man. A bad coat, hat or boots may be worn by a decayed gen tleman, but dirty lien never ; it would remove him from his order. Keep your finger nails scrupu lously clean, particularly in ladies' company. Always wear your gloves at church. In the boxen of a theatre, in a concert room, or upon sitting down in a public refectory, re move your hat. This is one of those little observances that in variably accompanies true polite ness. Do not affect singularity of dress by wearing anything that is so conspicuous as to demand attention ; particularly avoid the ruffian style, which requires great elegance of manner and decision of conduct to prevent the dress characterizing the wearer. CONVERSATION. At all times avoid a loud tone of voice, but particularly In ad dressing ladies. Observe men of the world and you will perceive tha', however mild their ordina ry address, their voice assumes an increased softness in address ing the other sex. When addressing any one, al ways look at him ; and if several present, address portions of yon r conversation to each one. In company endeavor to know something about those you are with, for fear any of your re. marks might (jive offense. Do not ask questions of those you are not acquainted with?they might be inconvenient to answer. Never speak of private matters in company unless you previous ly explain the business you wish to converse about, and to a new comer in the party explain your subject before you continue to converse upon it. Never laugh at your own re marks ; it may be a very agreeable excitation, but it in variably spoils what you are say ing. be sparing of anecdote. I Do not attempt to relate every particular, but seize upon the grand points. Never relate the same anecdote the socond time to the same company. When conversing with young and gay women, do not discourse of metaphysics, but chat about the last fashion, the new opera, or play, the last concert or novel, etc. With single ladies past 25, speak of literary matters, music etc., and silently compliment them by a proper deference to their opinions. With married ladies, inquire about the health of their children, speak of their grace and beauty, etc. Ladies in conversing have fre quently a highly exaggerated method of expression, therefore do not interpret too literally their remarks. VISITS AND CALLS. Never have your cards printed, but engraved. A written card, though passable, is not perfectly au fait If you write them never first draw a line across the card to guide you; it betokens ill breeding. The subject for conversation should harmonize with the char acter of your visit and prevent your introducing a gay conver sation when paying a visit of condolence, or subjects requiring deep thought and reflection upon causal visits or cails of cere mony. THE BALL BOOM. Go quietly through the dance an3 let the gracefulness of your deportment be more obvious than the complexity of your step. If a lady waltz with you beware not to press her waist; lightly touch it with the open palm of ? your hand, lest you leave a disa greeable impression on her mind. DINNER PARTIES. To carve with ease and ele gance should be understood by every gentleman, and while carv ing retain your seat. In helping sauce or vegetables place them upon the side of the viands in the plate. At dinner, where the common household bread is used, it should never be cut less than an inch and a half thick. As a general rule never touch with your fingers what you offer another. In sitting next to a lady see that she wants for nothing, with out appearing to watch her plate too closely. If anything is sent you from the host or hostess, do not offer it to any other person; and when helped do not wait until others are served, but at once arrange your napkin, and proceed to the important business of the mo ment. In helping, whenever a spoon can conveniently be ttsed it is pre ferable to the use of the knife and fork. When the soup is removed, if no one near the lady of the house asks her to partake of wine, the the host should then select some lady to drink with, which is the signal for others to partake. When you give a dinner party, do not have coffee brought into the dinning room. It has the appearance of inhospitality, and coffee soon after dinner is highly injurious to the digestive organs. GENERAL OBSERVATIONS. Your letters to either sex should be upon the best paper, though plnin, inclosed in an en velope and sealed to gentleman with red wax, to ladles with colored wax, not perfumed. An unmarried man should not' cover his fingers with rings. If there be another chair in the room, do not offer a lady that j from which you have just risen. When entering a concert or lecture room whurt> ladies are present carry your hat under your left arm. or to your hand with the cavity tamed toward you. If walking with a lady in the country and she should ait upon the grouud, remain standing un less requested to be seated. If you are at a concert or a private musical party, do not beat time with your feet of cane upon the floor. ?I'LTl'M IN P4BT0. Iceland has five printing presses.
