DRAWING LoTs FOR TABLE COMPANIONS. = A
dinner.trait at Brunswick illustrates q singular
social custom. The date is 1853:
On the 10Th we delivered our letters, and were
introduced to the Duke and Duchess, and their five
sons aud ave daughters. We dined at Court, and
consequently entered into the marriage state, as it
Is called here 4 being the custom for the Master Of
the Ceremonies 20 30 round the room five minutes
before dinner, and present hat to the ladies, and
another to the gentlemen, ont Of which each
draws ticket which is numbered. The Master of
the ceremonies then stands at the door of the
drawing room, aud calls No. l., when the gentle
man No. hands the lady No. |, and so on; and
beginning at the upper end Of the table, they sit
down as they are called; SO il may happen that
may sit at the upper end with the Duchess, and
the Dake at the lower end with maid of honor.

Mr.. CHAIRMAN said, that as tic report Of the
committee was correction Ul that OF tile
Auditor he would take that as the basis upon
which to build his future esti,nates-but he
would remind gentlemen that the informal re-
port Of the committee Was only an estimate nl
the particular receipts and charges OF the items
as contained in the Auditors report lie doubt
cd not but That farther anu fuller examination
by the committee would cause them to increase
the receipts into the treasury largely, as would
the Auditor, estimating ut tie present time; MS
reports from internal improvement companies,
since the Auditors report, show clearly that
large SUMS will come into the treasury that
were not estimated by him, and which MIR. Z.
would proceed TO show-and, n, making his
estimates, he would unite the fiscal years
lSG0'Gl, anu show the surplus which would
be in the treasury ut the end Of the fiscal year
lSGu-'Gl. viz: the 30th of September, ls6l:
He would beg leave to read, from the report OF
the Board of Public Works, made to this House
few days since:
"The Virginia and Tennessee Railroad (20+
miles ong) is completed, and their report en-
hibits very large increase Of revenue over
that OF any preceding year. This company
has for the two years prece'lng paid up
promptly the interest on the loan OF 81, 600, ,oOO
made by the State There still remains over
5000, 900 Of interest due the State for arrears
OF interest on the same loan, which the Com
pany will gradually pay up hereafter until the
same is liquidatcd. The prospects OF the Com
pany for the future warrant the belief that, be-
sides the payment OF the interest regularly,
thev will have the means TO pay the State
dividend of per cent on the preferred stock,
amounting to $500, 900.
The amount due from the Virginia and Ten.
nessee Railroad Company to the State for ar
rears Of interest, as shown by the report
of said Company, amounts to the sum OF
S292, ,G22 o., and the report also shows their
undoubted ability to pay it, and that the sum OF
$l4G,3ll OIL will be paid previous to the 3oth
Of June, 1860, and the remaining $l46,9ll Ul
previous TO the 30th day Of June, 1861.
