DisciSG At AMApRIp CASINO. The frs, glimpse
OF the ballVom was like n fairy scene. II was
ballt IN imitation of an Oriental palace, tasteluIly
painted and Illuminated with gli,terng chandelier in
the most brilliant manner. The bali quite ihrong-
ed with persons of both sexes, a large portion of
whom were engaged in dancing the polka aiazurka 10
the inspiring music ofa full and splendid band. So
exciting was the spectacle that with the greatest
difficulty we restrained ourselves for few moments from
rushing into the midst of the throng, and finally We
broke from all restraint, and bade defiance to the
counsels of Don Philippe, who evidently regarded u, in
the light Of couple oil hot led youths whose har.
vest OF wild oats had not yet bee, fully "a thered A.
way we dashed into the very midst OF the merry sports
as II with military ardor intended TO carry the place
by storm; having secured pair of female prizes whose
brilliant eyes, like ioads,ones, had drawn us toward
them, while under our sudden spell Of excitement
we mingled with the concourse Of laughing dancers
ani became ou cy, the gayet Of the gay. The bright
glances which cleaned II, ound u, from every female
eye, were softer than the bushes OF the moonbeams.
Every cheek wa, flushed with pleasure every lip was
red with joy! The men wild with froc, and the
youthful damsels intoxicated with delight.

A certain ''Frend,' whom we very well know, was
recently at distant place of summer rrlfcat lie
stepped into the post-otlce one morning, and while
there the Postmaster asked him # he knew any Eng

"Why does thee ask?" said the Quaker.
"Becausc," said the Postmaster, "here are half a
dozen letters directed to England By the next steamer
