-. In Mask. The masquerade dance, giVeI
by the Band ut Mammoth Hall, on Tuesday
evening, was quite a success. A large mum
ber appeared in costume, and many Of the
characters taken were we'll represented and
afforded considerable amusement to spectators.
Representatives of different nationalities in
varied walks of life, mingled together un-
restrained by differences of position. The in
iursd Red man sounded the war whoop in the
ear Of his pale faced foe, and the dusky squaw
walked arm in arm, in silent wonderment.
with the jaunty Daughter of the Regiment.
Old Equality poised his erect form, on heel
and toe. and clasped, with hearty grip, the re-
Iuctantly proffered hand Of the "nice young
man" IN KIDS. Up through the crowd, stalked
Hamlet's Ghost, tercely repeling the advan-
ces of the darkey lad who, unconscious Of the
real character of the grim spectre, was en-
amoured by the spotless robe, and ethereal
presence. With silvery locks the towering
head of the venerable father of our country,
moved sedately around, bearing upon his arm
Martha who composediy gszed upon the
throng. The exquiaite Of the period ceased
the flourish of his cane, just long enough to
peer graciously through his eye glass, at the
mixed assembly and exclaim with i'll suppress
sed amazement, "Ah, why really, ah, can it be
possible that 'ah. am he'ah." Stirred by the
memories of the "days when 1 was young"
Old Mother Ancient propelled her withered
form briskly about, solemnly declaring to
shIftless Joe, that, at did beat all natur"
Starry evening gathered the twilight about her
and holding herself in reticent reserve, refused
to allow even the melting smiles of the Son
to move her. The "Giant with the spiked he'll
met" drew his sword when victorious Prussia
was assailed, much to tbe terror Of three score
and ten, who owing to the absence of every
tooth had no disposition to crack jokes with
strangers,
Like Sister OF Charity, the Goddess of
Liberty hovored benignly about her protege,
with dusky skin, who was forcibly reminded
of the break downs on the old plantation.
Fresh from the Fenian ranks came the son OF
Erin, fourishing his shillalah to the time OF
Pat Malloy. The Phat woman got herself up
for the occasion, in magnificent proportions,
aud tripped her large fantastsc toe with undis-
turbed enjoyment. The pink clad maidens,
in rosy cheeks, toyed mercilessly with the
huttering hearts OF unhappy benedicts,and cast
willing side glances at bashful young men,
whose mothers didn't know they were out"
The "what is it'' strayed from its cage and fell
into line, wondering about with an abstracted
air, wandering and causing wonder. The
Frenchman sheathed his sword for time, and |
displayed his regimentals, maintaining grave |
silence intersperSed with spasmodic chatter
ings. The champion of the first nine, reserv-
ed his home run until the close of the even |
ing, but in the meantime caught several Hys |
in his arms, with remarkable case The |
daughter OF Night brushed cloud from the |
brow of q Pseudonym, and then retired into |
the shadow of the gigantic bonnet OF tine mat
ron in blue. In the train of the march around
came others of varied physique and comic
dress. A blossom with varied hoes beside the
gal with pills. a pair of Trumps dealing
clubs, following a pair of Queens playing
hearts. Still Others appeared during the Pam
tomiHe, in which the actors moved 70 the mu-
sic by the orchestra. All, excepting the spec
tators, removed their disguise before the clofe
os the evening. The spectators present ap-
peared both with and without characters.

We learn from the New York TTi5tase that
the suspension OF Father Farrell is to date
from ASH Wednesday. The members of his
church have signed protest, which has been
presented to the Archbishop. The Tribune
adds that 1t is stated that Father FarrelPs let
ter on Italian unity was not the primar, cause
OF the action OF the Archbishop, and that his
removal was the natural result OF his liberal
Ity OF views and freedom OF expression on other
occasion. 1t Is asserted that ne took pru- !
