THx BALL LAST NIGHr.-The grand
ball given by the Odd Fellows, at yir-
giuia, last night, was the best we have
ever seen in this State. Athletic Hall
was found to be too small altogether to
accommodate the immense crowd, and
Armory Hall also was called into requi.
sition. Both Halls were crowded, and
everything passed Off smoothly, happily,
and to the perfect satisfaction Of all the
participants. The music was excellent.
Mr.. Fillebrown, the leader Of the band
at Athletic Hall, who did the " calling "
for the Quadrille figures has a peculiar
toned, sharp, clear, distinct voice, highly
appreciated in such n crowded ball
room AS that Of last night. He is the
best caller in the State. A very excel
lent midnight supper was furnished by
Brother Moch, of the Merchants Ex-
change, for n dollar aud u halfper head.
Brother Moch was the only one who
made money out Of the arrangement, as
the ball tickets were free to members OF
the Order. At four o'clock this morn
ing the ball was still in full blast, with
mo sign of abatement.

Yesterday, at Virginia. The procession
was the largest of the kind ever seen in
the city and presented n 6ne appearance.
As il passed along the principal streets
to Pipers' Opera House, the balconies
and sidewalks on either hand were
crowded with spectators. The Opera
House during the exercises was filled to
its utmos, capacity. Tho GRAFTON Of G.
E. belong was a very good one, appro-
pirate aud we'll received, and tho Poem OF
Jos. T. Goodman, read by G. b. Plum
o msr, is pronounced by all who heard it
n mastery gem Of poesy, and we'll adap-
ted to the occasion. After the exercises
were concluded, the brethren Of the
Order marched to Odd Fellows Hall,
where they disbandsd until evening, to
meet at the grand Ball which wound up
the festivities Of the day.
