JuLLrES's BAL MAsQuE. - The grand Bal
Masque which Julien advertised to give on
Mardi Gras evening at the French Theatre, but
which was so painfully forced aside, has not been
given up, but on the contrary postponed to the
present evening and to the Odd Fellows Hall.
The HALL doubtless much better for the dances
than the Theatre and possesses other advantages
not to be had at the opera-house On account
of the desire there was to be present at the
Theatre, as well as owing to the fact that this
is the last and most magnificent night OF Jul

taken fthere are not some elegant dresses

PLAcIDEs VARIETIES. " Tempest was
repeated last evening to good house, though
not one by any means commensurate with the
merits Of the piece, or the magnificent manner
IN which it is put upon the stage, or the capital
way in which it is played. We cannot avoid
urging all who ever visit the theatre to attend
the representation of the Tempest, as it will,
in our opinion, amply repay all the necessary
time, trouble and expense, and as the piece is
one only produced at long intervals,
We understand that the sterling actor Mr..
Bass is to have his benefit at the Varieties on
next Wednesday evening, when the shaksperian
play, As You Like IT, will be produced.
The merits of the piece, and the merits of the
man, insure full house.

SENATOR WELLER AND THE ADMIN
IsTRAT1oN.-Some time ago Senator
Weller wrote letter Of sympathy to the
friends of Judge Bronson, in reply to an
invitation to public dinner. This let
ter led to some misapprehension in re-
gard to lis political position. On the
I'd ult. he wrote another letter, in which
he says:
''If, as seems to be the case, you have
inferred from this that l had united
with factionists to throw up obstacles to
Democratic progress, and thereby en-
barrass the administration you are cer-
tainly very much mistaken. l have no
doubt this administration will be con-
Quoted upon Democratic principles, and
I expect to give it warm and jealous
support. There is no man in public
life for whom I have higher personal
respect than President Pierce; there is
no one in whom I have politically more
confidence"

A THIRrY-S1x MILLION lIE1REss..

A THIRrY-SIx MILLION lIE1REss.-
The Southern papers mentioned, some
time since, a rumor that the wife OF the
Rev. Samuel Clawson, of Virginia, had
fallen heir to an immense f>rtune in
England. The Western Va Herald
says the facts Of the case are as follows:
There was originally the sum of thir-
ty-six millions of dollars in the estate of
the Earl Of Lancaster, in England: and
upon the death of the Earl and his
brother dispute arose between the
house of York and the house of Lancas-
ter, (instituted by the former, because
of an intermarriage between the two
houses,) the house of York sueing for the
heirship. The suit was protracted, from
the lower to the higher courts, from SO
to 100 years, and was finally decided at
the Exchequer, in favor of the house Of
Lancaster. After this decision advor-
tisements were scattered abroad over
the world for the heirs of the Lancaster
estate; and the mother Of Mrs. Clawson,
wife of Rev. Samuel Clawson, is one of
the heirs. Attorneys are employed by
the heirs to secure their interests, and
it is supposed that the whole affair will
be settled up during this winter, when
the heirs will receive their portions.
The sum of thirty six millions has been
at interest for more than sixty years,
which interest will pay the cost of law,
and leave the original clear.
