sB The Doylestoan Democrat, which
appears was represented at the last night of the
winter session Of the Dancing Association says ::
On Thursday evening last, the " Lambertville
Dancing Association" gave their last compli-
mentary party for the season, and had happy
time. Our reporter says, the ladies looked
pretty and danced gracefully that he has at
tended many coy dances, but none quite so
agreeable as the one mentioned
For all was jollity,
And mirth, light wantonness and laugh'r
Pipeng and playing, promenades and dancing,
Till the night fed away like an idle dream."
Quite number of our young ladies and gen
tlemen was present, and was highly delighted
with the gentlemanly and polite treatment receiv-
ed from the managers. Rowiey and Carpenters
Quadrille Band played many of their beautiful
airs and the citizens of Lambertve should
feel proud that they can bring out such good
artistic music. The members of the Association
intend giving Messrs. Rowly & Carpenter a
benefit on Thursday evening, March 10th which
we hope will be a bumper for they richly mer-
it it.
