ANSWER TO CORRESPONDENT. Hampden.—There arc no hard and fast rules as to the method of going through the grand march. Every M.C. has his own ideas, and hence there .is considerable diversity in the styles adopted. The following is, however,- the usual method; Couples march round thi room in procession ; after getting properly into line the top couple lead down the centre to the bottom of the hall, top couple load to the right, second couple to the left, and to on, every alternate couple marching in a serpentine direction to the top of the room. When the two leading couples meet, march down the room in fours to the bottom, breaking off into couples to right and left to top, this time marching in the direction to form the figure of a vase; couples meet again at top, ladies and gentlemen eeparate, ladies to the right in a zig-zag to the bottom, gentlemen similarly to the left, when partners meet, march round the room, and polka.
