within the wallis of the Academy Music fully Eva
thousand. There seemed to bs a continual stream OF
iAthon ard beauty pouring In a the doors on every ds
of the building Every available space was filed The
circles were denely crowded the occasion
ct this great ball. What Mario and Grs failed to do the
poor children of the Nursery accomplished without Aay
difficulty. Their appeal for full house was mot nm
needed No. Fully Eve Thousand persons subscribed 10
the charitable fund.- and thus about was coectcA
in single night for the benefit Of the infant orphans oe
tins city. We understand that large nambsr Of per-
sons we're refused admission, in consQ6usncs Of IN
crowded condition of the building. The 6ket Office ~,
closed in about two hours after the music c-mmsucsd
and orders given not TO admit any persons who had
not the necessary pass Great the consternatioa
therefore, aopg of the fashsnabes who arrived
after H. O'Clock when they found that all the tcksts
r admission had been sold However, their anxiety
soon relieved BY the appearance Of speculators win
plenty Of tickets for 'ale st 80 ssch Although IN sxss
dollar was charged FOR admission tickets by these ca-
fi,s indnse sti they sold well and soon sverythioe
In the way Of tickets completely disappeared.
From II until 1879 oooc the dancing prsceedsi vsry
slowly, owing to the vast throng who would promensAs
when watses pokas and redowas being performed
by the musicians. Al early O'Clock large num-
bers ofaess and genuenen most of whom did not en-
gage In the dance at ALL took ther departure from the
ballroom and retired to their homes From that hosr
the company gradually became less and ct O'Clock 1t
was quite evident that there were than 0oo
persons in the eoihce Before O'Clock the bard played
"Home, home, sweet home" and all who remained
hind until that hour busily engaged in making
preparations for their departure.
The ball, financially speaking, complete success.
