ing assemblsge than gathered at the hostelry
OF that prince of good fellows Mr.. w m Forbes
| Esq, on the occasion, cant be scared up in
any section of this illimitable kedentry.
Charming young ladies', fair AID lovely clothed
! IN gorgeous apparel, and all of them in the
most fascinating and bewitching mood, were
there III all their transcendant loyeiiness and
each fair and happy face bstokened a determi-
nation 10 enjoy the festivities FREELY. Every
thing, you may bet was according TO Coyle, If
not Hoyie, even to the Big ham with little
| Green(s). Taken all together, they were a
hope set, and none more so than friend
htck (cup)ey and his esteemed fami ly, young
and old, small and tall who were present in
full force, the pater families himself looking as
happy as fulI grown canine quadruped With
superabundunce of caudal appendages He
Is the fellow who always gets mixed up in the
Co(r)ner. hen too the manly proportions of
our TREND Billy might have been winding
their way through the may dance, attended
by bewitching partner in the person of
charming Miss whose surname represents the
first Book of the n ew Testament. n ear these
latter might have been seen our corpulent
friend D., who increases daily in avoirdu-
pOIa, II not IN grace, and who would have made
better time on the light fantastic had it not
been for the good looking lady who engaged
his attention fully. Daddy Grimes, that
good old soul, was likewise in the ring, and
was as gay AS a young Coo )u-rade in d poul-
more polite to say a rooster RAM and was made
master OF ceremonies. Ben is an excellent
dancer and good caller, ard hence the honor
conferred upon him. He is also huuky how
with ponuerous handle on his face. Alien
the gay cavalier, who has an appreciatiYs e,a
Tor pretty ladies, was there in all his glory
anu did himself much credit in DISPLAYING Ia
great advantage his new pug hat-one of the
most killing OF its species. But it would oc-
cupy Two much space TO give full details, and
hence 1t must suffice to say that more socia-
ole, agreeable or better behaved party of
pleasure seekers never left our city on an ex-
curson of the kind. All were happy, and none
more so than the Apostle Paul's pupil, Timo-
thy. The supper was a superb one. ami full
justice was done it by all present. I. l. u.

to mex experienced persons to select good in
strumeut OF any capacity. W e often rely
upon the judgment of OUr friends in the selec-

accomplished aud wealthy of our citizens, and
in our best seminaries and colleges, these mag
nifcent instruments may be found. Nor is
this any wonder, for, in putty. depth and con
stancy of toLe, they are unsurpassed. The
gradatjor of scale s so exquisitely, and, at tho
same time, cOmprehensively attuned that they
are apable of expressing every emotion o the
human heart and soul. Their tone is exqui-
sitely pure and unique, and so even wect and
sympathetic that it inspires all who listen to it,
while at the same time tile action is perfectly
free and the keys rcsoInd to the touch with
such ssnsitiyeness aud intelligence. TO
speak, as to make one almost think that the
MIND Of she manufactures linsers in his work.
