GRAND LARcgNy-Last Thursday,
during the temporary absence of Coun.
Gilman Frost and family, his dwelling in
Swantown was entered by one Russell
Phillips, colored boy Of some thirteen or
fourteen years Of age, who appropriated to
his own Use the Alderman's coat, vest and
Sunday rantaloons, the pockets Of the lat
ter containing some sixty dollars in coin.
The young scamp went at once upon the
rampage, scattering the money about with
looseness On Sunday evening, the
clothes and unexrended portion Of the
money, amounting to some thirty odd dol
lars were recovered. The thief was frs.
detected from the fact Of his not being big
enough for his stolen brooches. lie was

finding BAH, was committed to await the

The BALL On TIE ForRTH.-Thc ball
to be given the evening of July 9th BY Co
lumbia Engine Company. promises to be
the very best ever had on the Sound The
arrangements have assumed such wide
scope, that it promises to be the feature Of
the day, and doubtless many will par,ici-
pate with us in the celebration. who will
be drawn hithcr mainly by this induce
ment. The Pavilion is nearly completed,
and is large enough to accommodate thirty
sets in quadrille. 1t is proposed to have
the sides aud roof elegantly fcstooncd with
eyergreens and flowers, while fountain
in the center of room will throw its cooling
jets above the heads Of the merry dancers
aud fall back into large vase decorated
with moss and flowers, The supper, con.
trbuted by the ladies', will be spread in the
, Olympic Hall, and will doubtless reflect
great credit upon the fair hands which
prepare it. The dancers will many ofthcnl
be in fancy costumes--among which We
may expect the ridiculous, grotcsque and
hideous will largely prcdominate-and
this will add greater zest to the enjoy
ment. We advise everybody to attend
this ball, believing that its equal will no,
again occur very soon.
