Foncy Rail nit Louisville.

The Louisville Courier has long account Of
grand fancy ball given on the 95ih ut by Mrs. Rob
ert ]. Ward, the lady who figured so conspicuously
in the Lawrence divorce correspondence. The
following description of the appearance OF the late
Mrs. Bigelow Lawrence will interest the ladies' 4:
Miss Sallie Ward, as usual, was the centre OF ar
a at,raction She appeared during the evening III
two splendid costumes, each Of which was Pecu-
larly becoming Before supper she was Nour-
rnahal of the hight of the Harem. She wore pink
satin skirt with silver lamms over it. and bodice
embroidered with silver and studded with dia-
monds her oriental sleeves were Of white, adorned
with silver and god and her trousers of satn span
g led with gittering gold; her hair was BRAIDED
with pearls and covered with beautiful Greek
cap, and her tiny pink slippers were gorgeously
embroidered with silver. The splendid jewels pro-
fused over this magnificent costume threw back
the light which fell upon them as if in sheer dis
dain of their effulgence. Her second appearance
was Nournaahal at the Feast of Roses Her dress
was white illusion dotted with silver. white silver
ed viel, wreath Of white roses, white silk boots
with silver anklets and she bore the charmed lute
In this latter character she was truly beautiful
exemplifcation Of the poetical thought she repre-
sented. Always sweat and fair, and lovely, and
beautiful, she was, if possible, more so during that
evening, and her different characters were sus-
tanned incomparably excellent.

Mr.. J. B. Smith, colored gentleman Of Boston,
who makes business of assisting entertainers on
such occasions, and desired to engage Mr. Smith $

decided opinion of his own respection the Fugitive
Slave law and some other acts that Mr.. Webster
has lately had hand in, sent word TO Mr. w.
that he would not 60 to his house for 800 per
day, and there was not a colored man in Boston
mean enough to enter the service for one day OF
