I we thought we should never tire looking at this
really beautiful picture. and the brief moment
allowed was not long enough to satiate us with
its charms The comic element was not wanting,
the groups two and ten crelting much merriment.
The light aud stage effects were good, aud much
credit is due the stage manager, Mr. Emerson, for
for the regularity and correctness with which he
performed his duties.
The costumes were varied. and many Of them
elegant, displaying in most instances good taste
in the selection. Among the many beautiful co s.
tunes worn by the ladies', that Of Miss Lizzie
Langdon, representing Moonlight, was particu-

and as she gracefully moved through the figures OF
the dance that followed the Reception, the OBJ
served Of all observers. The costume Of Miss
Kate Hyde, representing the Queen Of the Sea,
was also an elegant one, and excited much adni-
ration, both for its beauty and the comelness of
its fair occupant The Representative Of the
Press Miss NJ. Jones' was attred yery neatly in
dress made entirely from newspapers--yery in

all more or less deserving of honorable mention.
Among the costumes worn by the gentlemen, we
would notice those Of Messrs Mitchell, Sweet,
Dodge, Watson, Clarence Pitxn, Edward Hay
den, Geo. Taplin, as displaying more than usual
good taste and elegance. If we omit any, either
ladies or gentlemen, from special list, hope

but see myself as others see me- etc.
At tho conclusion of the Reception. the amusing
comedy, Faint Heart never won Fair LADY,
was very creditably rendered, Each part was we'll
sustained, aud as all were prominent characters,
we forbear to particularize. Below is the cast of
characters:
King Charles, Miss Maria Reed.
Rny Go1sg, Edward Hyde.
Marquis, Clarence Pitkin
GuzHaH, John Fiske
PEDRO, Carol Pitkin
Duchess, Miss Ellie Brooks.

Pages, Florence Huntington and Nellie ,IOhonnott.
AT the conclusion Of the Comedy, the hall was
cleared for dancing, and number of the audience
together with most OF the Costume Party, were
soon mingled in the maze of the giddy dance
creating a scene of varied beauty aud drollery.
The music of the orchestra, under the skillful
direction of Mr. II. Fales, was admirably per-
formed great improvement on previous occa-
sons.
The Committee of Management, Gen. Pitkin,
aud Messrs. Emerson, Watson, Tobin and Hyde,
by their gentlemanly and eff ,ient management, in
sured the success of the undertaking.
The Glees aud Choruses were well sung, and
added very materially to the pleasure Of the even
