Cettntess of Warwick's Visit --"Kitty Cor,,

(We have arranged for a weekly letter
about Toronto affairs, which, we believe,
will be of great interest to many Of our

special siacnifleance to be attached to this

TOO SIMPLE.
The Nista of Peed 'Which Skoultl Be
Served ifl HXigh Society*.
The favorite dish of Napoleon II'.
was perdrix anti ehosx,.--partridge
served with cabbage,—but he never'
ate it at home. .Alexandre, his
chef, was emperor in the kitchen,
and would not serve it to the em-
peror
mperor who ruled the rest of the pal-
ace. Patrtridgc--well and good he
would willingly serve partridge, bat
serve it "with cabbage" be, would
not. Cabbage was plebeian in it
self, and partridge with cabbage
was a dish popular in some parts of
France, doubtless, among families
of a certain social grade, but for the
imperial table distinctly' a culinary
impropriety.
In England, after the fall of the
empire, the emperor would occa-
sionally send Comte Clary person-
ally to the kitchen to -order the de,
sired delicacy; but either the cab-
bage could not be obtained, or the
partridges could not, or something
went wrong with the fire. ` Alexan-
dre, after assuring the count' that
it sliould appear at the next meal,
good excuse e had always some go �. use t.
of-
fer why it. did not.
"I thought we were to have per-
drix aux choux to -day," the emper-
or would say, in his mild, drawling
voice, searching the table vainly
with his eyes; and an 'explosion of
wrath would follow from Comte
Clary, who could not ,see, the imper-
ial orders disobeyed with the phleg-
matic 'coot -nature that the disap-
pointed emperor himself always dis-
played.
-Alexandre was not the only
French chef with ideas as to what
kind of food should be served in
"high life," as the French society
papers, in what they think is Eng-
lish, term the higher circles of so-
ciety. A chef in the service of an
English lady of noble birth and the
bearer of an historic title who had
a preference for new and simple
dishes, exquisitely prepared, gave.
notice after only a few weeks in the
place. She offered him higher pay
if he rvoiikl remain, but he firmly,
declined. ,>
"Madame is generous but it is a
matter above money," he explain-
ed ''M[ada,me's tastes are -whole-
sonic, also refined but they are not
such as'I am accustomed to. With-
out' criticism of niadaine',s prefer
