Mrs. Nellie Grant Sartoris, who has lived thirteen years in England, is reported by a correspondent of New York World as expressing the following views of English women: "You spoke about the condition of women in America; but yon must remember the ladies assume more self-reliance here than American women know. They are resolute, lull of good health, are fond of exercise, and take to the sports of the field with the men. They do not expect the attention which American women demand; yet I think English ladies are treated with courtesy as real and substantial as the ! women of any other country. There may not be quite so much obsequious courtesy shown them, but in those elementa of association which really tend tomake up one's happĆ¼fess there is as much attention paid women in England as anywhere in the world. It is an old country and its customs ure well established. Thera is not the tithe of ceremony that most people think, and there is a great deal to commend in what American women find strange at first, bun would very soon fall into."
