The Two BALLs.-Two grand calico balls
came off here last Tuesday, evening for the
benefit of one church.. Lucky Church The
opposition became very spirited, for day or
two previous, and theEarious canxassers with
their respective ball tickets were to- be found
on allsides eagerly pressing the sale of the
tickets among their friends. The politicians
on eleetiondaywerem mere sticks compared
to the electioneers of last Tuesday. If Henry
Ward Beecher had circulated here during the
early position of the week, he would have
thought the laurels of his church popularity
were endangered by the numbsr,and ardor of
the canvassers of the Idaho, charch. The
only cause of the division, as far. as we have
learned it, consisted in the selection Of hall
in which the ball should. be held. Magnolia
and Pickwick contested the palm la Mozart
and Tammany. Both, parties were very ably
engineered, contributing to, the happiness, of
