The MAsQuERADE.-The Masquerade ball at
Mrs, Macs, on Thursday night last, under
the direction Of Vincent and Brown afforded
great sport for the participants and spectators.
Among the characters that were exceedingly
well made mp and the DISCUSSES perfect NAV
be mentioned, the Flower Girl, by Miss Emma
Chewing; the Peasant Girl, by Miss May
German; Lola Nontez by julius Steinberper.
Chief of the Walls Wailas by j. b. Bledsoe;
American Sailor, by c. b. Shourds; Damon,
the Roman Senator, by Billy Vincent. The
latter character was by far the most perfect in
makeup of any, and when Billy was I'M
masked he hooked every inch the sturdy old
Roman. The other characters were we'll exc
cuted. The whole entertainment reflects much
credit on the managers, and all retired salts
fed.
