One Of those pleasant reunions, where
wit, sentiment and good feelings prevail,
took place last Thursday evening at the
Masonic Hall in Washington. Notwith-
standing the unfavorable state Of the
atmosphere, the long anticipated ball was
a perfect success and attracted a great
many. Those who failed to attend, arc
entitled to the commiseration Of the entire
gathering, whose better fortune or "good
angels" led them thither. The Hall was
not crammed, but was comfortably filled
with those who evidently appreciated and
enjoyed the ga:etles Of the evening. The
ladies wore their usual smiles and trim
mings, while the gentlemen won golden
opinions by their attentions to the faircr
sex.
We regret that want Of time and space
prevents our giving o more deserving no
tice of the affair. Suffice it to say, that it
was an occurrence to which memory will
often revert as the most pleasant and bril-
liant gathering that has ever taken place
our midst. The gentlemen who con-
Quoted and managed it, have reason to be
proud of their success.
