You know quite a number among the spec- tators. High up in yonder pavilion, erected upon the border of the ice, are some persons whom you have seen very lately. In the centre is Madame van Gleck. It is her birthday, you remember; she has the post of honor. There is Mynheer van Gleck, whose meer- schaum has not reaUy grown fast to his Ups — it only appears so. There are grandfather and grandmother whom you met at the St. Nicholas fete. All the children are with them. It is so mild they have brou...ght even the baby. The poor little creature is swaddled very much after the manner of an Egj-ptian mvmimy, but it can crow with delight, and when the band is plajdng, open and shut its animated mittens in perfect time to the music. Grandfather, with his pipe and spectacles and fur cap, makes quite a picture as he holds baby upon his knee. Perched high upon their canopied platforms, the party can see all that is going on. No wonder the ladies look com- placently at the glassy ice; with a stove for a footstool one might sit cozily beside the North Pole.
