Therefore it is the interest of one set of servants to keep the glasses full; of another set to draw as many corks a. possible, while parting with as little wine as they can: and of a third set to draw corks sparingly. Tho result is that oftiwt a groat deal of unseemly whispering and nudging goes on at tho Sideboards As regards tho food, them ore different orders of claimants for perquisites; one man having a vested interest in tho joints, another iu tho poultry, a third in the sweet dishes, and soon. Then there are tho men to whom wax candles belong, and these natur ally ttiiikea rush to blow out the candles the moment the last guest has walked out of tho room. Altogether, this sys tem of perquisites causes the imperial DUUquets to be served in double-quick lime, so that tho longest of them sol don lasts beyond three-quarters of an hour. The Emperor' I dining hour is five o'clock; but it is etiquette for the guests to arrive a clear half hour be forehand. After dinner coffee and ci gars arc served ina smoking-room: the Emperor lingers about a quarter of an hour and theguests separate soon after 6:.'K).
