The Marquise de Lafayette, who enter- NEW YORK BALLS AND RECEPTIONS. 93 tained a warm friendship for Mrs. Jay, said, with charming simplicity, that " Mrs. Jay and she thought alike, that pleasure might be found abroad, but happiness only at home. " All of Mrs. Jay s portraits repre sent a face of such exquisite beauty that it is not difficult to imagine the furore she created at foreign and Republican courts. Does there not seem to have been an indefinable charm of exquisiteness and dig nity ab...out these old-time dames, like the fragrance that surrounds some fine and stately exotic ? They had abundant leisure to make their daily sacrifice to the graces, and they always appear before us in full toilette, hair rolled or curled, slippers high of heel, and gown of stiff brocade or satin. We never catch these fair ladies en desha bille, nor do we desire to do so; their charm would as surely vanish before the inglorious ease of a loose morning gown and roomy slippers as does that of an American In dian when he divests himself of his war paint and feathers.
