MILITARY BALL.-A grand ball" for the benefit ofthe
families of the members Of the Richmond Fayette Ar
tery will take place at the First Market Hall on Thurs
day night, Goth Instant We could have wished that
the company could have devised some other mode Of
Using fund for the purpose indicated; but snce after
consideration, they have fixed upon this method we are
constrained to do all that can to promote the sue
cess of their undertaking. If any chmond company
more than another deserves to be kindly remembered
By the citizens of Richmond it is the old Fsyetts Ar
tlery 1t has been in various engagements and rem
dcred most efficient service to the cause The men have
with few exceptions, remained faithfully at their posts
seeking neither transfers discharges They went in
for the war, and will "man the battery whilst the war
continues We trust therefore, that the sale OF tickets
to the proposed ball will be very extensive The pur-
esasers need not attend the ball The great object is
to raise auud for the benefit Of the members families
and all who gan do should contribute TO this fund by
purchasing ore or more tickets We have reason TO
believe that the aid thus sought for is sorey needed in
many instances, and it should be literally extended.

THxArRK-Thii place of amusement continues to DO
a fiourishiug business. The dress circle is crowded
every night and the paIquetse is always full The au-
iences are for the part respectable and orderly
it is worthy of that they are composed chiefly
of radesmsn and mechanics and their wives who are
terribly oppressed" by the "high prices OF provisions"
Of refugees, male and female, who have lost every
thing they had" Of clerks whose salaries are totally in
adequate to pay their board; OF young ladies' who
work hard for the Government to get living; and OF
soldiers (uumerou) who only get sl2 per month-'not
enough TO 6ud them in tobacco" There is of course
sprnkng Of spectators with pockets full Of Treasury
notes, ouartermasters, commsssries, and other gold
hced officers, members of Congress, and Others who
have penty of money" but the majority represent the
classes We have enumerated and their presence every
night conflicts with the popular notion that "hard times
