AT THE ST. CHARLES there was as mighty gath

The AMPHITHEATER attracted fair attendance
to be amused by Dilly Fay, who made grand polti-

feats of horse Hiram, astounded by the agility and
daring of Mile Loyale, and delighted with sundry
other good things.

THE WASHINGTON ARTILLERY BALL.


As We expected to find it, the ball given by Capt
Walton and his gallant companions Of the Washing
ton Artillery, Wednesday night, was magnificent
affair. The Company had left nothing undone to
eclipse all their previous balls il possible and we
inclined to believe they succeeded Certain it is that
larger, more brilliant and fashionable, or more
generally delightful reunion, never came of at Odd
Fellows Hall.
The decorations OF the hall were conspicuous for
their taste and beauty. The entrance to the ladies'
dressing room was draped in star and stripe the
head Of the hall and the gallery were sumptuously
hung with the same material the flags at the head
having over them large figure Of spread eagle
flags decorating the chandeliers and streamers reach
ing from the central chandelier to all four sides Of
the hall; pictures and military ornaments placed be-
tween the windows all round and on the stage at
the head, two polished pieces of artillery with balls
cartridges, and the other playthings of grim-vis-
aged wal" fanking the musicians in smiling array
Much care had been devoted to the decorative de-
partment, and the effect was admirable. r
The attendance was extraordinarily large-crowd.
ing the hall thoroughly. The gallant Artillerists, all
in uniform, busted themselves in promoting the fes
tivity and rendering all happy The military appear
of the assembly added to by the Of
the Major General Of the Militia and bis staff, with
officers of the different volunteer companies all in full
uniform. Many of the guests appeared in mask and
fancy costume, and the remainder in fashionable
rendering thescene Of peculiar brilIiancy
and variety The ladies were dressed with exquisite
taste, and Joined in the hlariy Of the occasion with
all the bewitchng oyousness which characterizes the
bewitchng ladies and assies Of New Orleans at ball
given by such band of good fellows as the Washing
| ton Artillerists
The supper provided was sumptuous and exhaust
less !; a worthy accompaniment to such ball. and
one to which ample justice done by all. So great
was the crowd, that the supper room was filled and
emptied half dozen times-it being impossible fol
more than portion Of the ladies' and gentlemen
to be seated at one time.
When we left, near o'clock, there was no per
ceptible abatement in the crowd and all were flying
around in waltz, polka, mazourka, etc., with as mucl
vigor and relish as if the dance had but just com
menced. The truth is, that whenever the Washing
ton Artlerists give ball. everybody tries to CO. an
those who get there are unanimous in the difficult
Of tearing themselves away.

ONLY Ax'D FOR INFoRMATIoN.-AsD Deacon -
one extremely cold morning in old times, was riding

The worthy deacon's nose was at the bluest, but
here it began to assume the purple, and he rode of in
not the best of hunora.

SINKING OF THE CHERoKEE.-The vicksburg Whig
