GREAT SALE OF PAIErINGs.-We would
direct the attention of our readers to the
great catalogue sale of oil paintings now
being continued by B. J. Montgomery. The
list includes large number CT very fine
pictures by well known and skillful artists,
both American and foreign. Conspicuous
among these are some charming specimens
of American landscape painting, schoo
o. art which, to some extent, peculiar, has
already produced many brilliant works.
Church and Bierstadt have made the school
immortal, and many other artists whose
works are to be found in this collection, are
worthy to be considered the colleagues o.
those great masters.

The Washington correspondent of the
New York World says:
A bal masaue was given on Monday night
at west end fashionable boarding house.
It was very enjoyable affair and was nu.
merousiv attended. A little before mid.
night, and just as the guests were sitting
down to supper, masks were removed, dis

Among the ladies the most striking cos
tune was one representing Greek slave
The lady personating the character was un-
exceptionally beautiful, and is thought to
take precedence III that respect OF all the
numerous blondes that mark Washington
society. Long, wavy masses of fair sliken
hair, reaching down to the waist, escaped
from beneath a jauntily setting cap OF
blue silk freely ornamented with pearls.
A heavy pink brocade bodice slashed with
bouquets, end a blue satin jacket open IL

Full embroidered muslin sleeves, flowing
back from the shoulder, left the arms ex-
posed to view, over which were ciasped q
profusion of bracelets and costly trlnkets.

BRITISH AND FOREIGN ANTI SLAVERY SOCIETY.
At meeting of the committee, held at 27
New Broad street, London, the fourth OF
January, 1870, the following minute was
unanimously adopted:
The attention of this committee has been
turned to a report, which has gained cur.
rency in several of the American news
papers, 70 the effect that immigration on an
extensive scale, from China to the Southern
States, is in contemplation.
While this committee disclaims all desire
to interfere with immigration when it is per-
fectly free, aad conducted upon fair and just
principles, it has great cause to view with
alarm and 6istrust immigration from less
enlightened and less civilized nations into
countries where slavery has recently had an
existence.
The past experience of Great Britain has
painfully shown that it is almost impossible
in such cases to prevent kidnapping, op-
preston and fraud.
This has been found especially the case
where contracts, made with such persons in
| their own country, are legally binding in the
country in which such contracts are to be
| fulfilled.
In such cases it has frequently happened
| that immigrants become marketable proper
| ty-are openly bought and sold, and thus
many of the evils of slavery are reintro-
| duced.
There is also a danger that native labo,
| may be deprecated aud displaced, and
| caste introduced into the country, by which
| labor itself may be degraded.
This committee, therefore, ventures very
respectfully To suggest to the friends of free
| dom in the United States the necessity o.
| great vigilance, in order that evils Of suCt
| magnitude may be efectually prevented.

Fortunes are not made in day, but there
are those who have persisted in counting the
tickle dame till they have won her. To.mor.
row st eleven o'clock the grand drawing of
the single number Louisiana State Lottery
takes place, and the public are invited to
witness it. But additional zest would be
given to tfAt operation if you would buy
ticket first, and then take q chance in the
capital prize of fifty thousand dollars. There
are only two thousand numbers, and the
tickets being but twenty dollars each. any
innocent purchaser stands one chance out
of two thousand to draw the magnificent
prize of fifty thousand dollars. That amount
judiciously invested in plantation, would
be certain to enrich the man who made a
lucky hit by buying a strip or slip of paper
with twenty dollar greenback.
