LORD AND LADY CURZON.
From Simla a correspondent of the London World writes : —"Lord Curzon has not been well lately, and has just returned from a holiday at Naldeera, a few miles in toward tho interior. His Excellency may- be described as a highly nervous administrative machine wound up to get the most out of himself and everybody else for five years. He appears at a certain number of social functions, where I believe he is civil, and even kind, to persons brought under his notice, but it is plain to.perceive that his heart is not in these things. He rather resides, exclusive of his domestic relations, in the various despatch-boxes which arrive for his inspection at all hours of the day. Lady Curzon ia as beautiful as ever, and several shades more gracious. Her manners were always charming, but she took a natural refuge last season, when everything was new, in a distance which was perhaps a trifle more accentuated than it need nave been. This season, however, her Excellency has allowed herself a certain latitude, and has gratified her willing subjects by the impression that she is enjoying herself, the result being an instant increase in popularity."
