''Why, you little scoundrel, said Monsey,
task Lord Godolphin, one Of the best-bred
men in the world, if l do not behave as we'll
as the poitest of his visitors"
''Well, replied Garrick, 'if you'll promise
TO behave properly, you shall come"
Monsey promised and duly came. All went
on well till Mrs. Garrick began to neglect
Monsey and load her noble visitors with
ceremopious attentions. The doctor bore
this till he found Mrs. Garrick paid no regard
to the plate he (Monsey) held out, until at
last, losing all regard for common decency,
the doctor thrust it at her, exclaimiug, "Will
you help me, you beast, or not9" Garrick fell
back in his chair with laughter; the Duke,
though prepared for Monseys oddities, was
somewhat surprised, but Monsey, not whit
abasbed. shamed into good humor, plunged
into Q career of whimsical anec aotes.

MlENNERCHOR BAL MASoUE.

The seventh annual bal nadsgue and carni-
val of the Mennerchor Singing Society came
off at the Academy last evening, and was a
grand success. The Mennerchor surpassed
ITSELF and the months of labor the committee
of arrangements have spent with the object
of making the carnival success have been
more than repaid, for the grand entertain
ment even exceeded the expectations of the
most sanguine. Never did the Academy pre-
sent more brilliant or animated appearance.
The parquette circle and balcony were filed
to overflowing with spectators consisting of
portly paterfamilias, stately dowagers, bright
eyed, blushing maidens, and gay and gallant
young gentlemen attendants.
The dancing floor presented a scene that
the pen of a Dickens could scarce do justice
to. Every imaginable character was repre-
sented.
The Academy was beautifully decorated
with hanging baskets, eyergreens, and flags
of different nationalities, and the music was
very superior. 1t was a scene of joyous,
healthful fun and morriment, and the Occa-
sion will long live in the memories of those
who had the good fortune to be participants.
E AS pecnniary success the affair exceeded
expectations. To the lasting credit of the
M@nnerchor Society, it may be mentioned
that the managers have resolved to appro-
pirate one-haIf of the net proceeds of the
ball to the sufferers by the French-German
war, and no mean sum will be realized.

AN ODD PHYsICIAN.-Dr. Monsey was one
of GarIick's most clever and most three-cor-
nered friends. This Abernethy of his day
was odd enough to leaven a whole century.
This good-natured bear, the scourge of fools,
fops, and fatuous persons in general, was
Norwich ply ysician, who, coming to London
and attaining emineDce, became resident ply
sician to the Earl of Godolphin, and after
ward physician to Chelsea Hospital. Monsey,
who had seen the great Duke of Marlborough
when imbecile, and had been boon COM
panion of Sir Robert Walpole, lived to be-
come Garrick's intimate friend, and to brow
beat the terrible Warburton.
Garrick used to tell story of how he first
knew Monsey. He was at an Old Bailey
trial, when he heard a gentleman ask a big
rough fellow who stood before him to stand
little ON one side, that he might see the
Bench. The churl obstinately kept his place;
the gentleman repeated the request, and at
last he said in loud voice, 'If I were not a
coward would give you blow, even though
it is in q court of justice!" Garrick thought
this observation must come from a singular
character and made his acquaintance.
Nothing could equal Monseys rough ecoen.
tricity, which was coarser and more resem.
bled the bearisbness of Swift than that OF
johnson. But Monsey was more mercifuI
and Differentiated than Swift, who spared
neither man nor woman in his wrath. MOnseJ
| once chided Garrick for not having asked
him to dinner to dine with the Duke of Ar
gyle and some ladies of distinction.
Ct woulo have asked ynu, said 'f7F-i -
'but you were too great blOckguard.

The san Domingo Com missIo..

Washington despatch says that previous
to the sailing of the San Domingo Commits
sion, Allen G. Burton, their secretary, stated
that the plan for the landing of the commits
sion, which he should submit to the commits
sion for their consideration, was to land OPP
posite the City of San Domingo back of the
island. The reason for this course, he stated,
was to avoid coming in contact with such
persons only as should be sent by Baez, it
being more desirable, in order to obtain a
truthful condition of the facts to be ascer-
tanned, for the commission to consult with
the people as they might find them. 1t is
believed that the commission have adopted
Mr.. Burton's plan. If so, ten or twelve days
would elapse, in addition to the time contem-
templated, before hearing from them.
