The BALI"-The ball given by our friend Porter OF
the Luna House. last Friday evening, was as we ex.
pected 1t would be, success in every particular.
Quite party Of ladies and gentlemen from Placer.

ladies and gentlemen of Idaho City turned out in
goedly number. The dancing took place in the lower
Hall belonging to the Good Templars Messrs. Tir
cher, Moitt and Cheaty there in their official
character, with clear voices and scientific heads
directing the revolutions of the time which was kent
up with spirit until the grey streaks of approaching
dawn warned them that they had sufficiently attested
their devotion to old Terpschore and that Morpheus
claimed the few remaining hours for himself Jen.

the fair ladies' who graced the ball room with their
presence, and as 10 the brave men, we will oniv
say that >hoo-ly' cravats ana the --latest agony. >,

LIE DOCTRINE OF SUBsTrrUT1oN-We mentioned

with sluice-forks They were examined before Inc

next DAY before the Justice and just before the

there was chance of his recognzance being forfeit.
