given at the Miners Union Hall, Vir-
ginia, for the benefit Of Sam Baker,
City Tailor, who was 80 seriously In
iured a few months ago by a fall while
In the discharge of Ills duty, was, we
are pleased to say, q capital success
The hall was crowded with an agree
able assemblage, including many from
Gold Hill. We saw numerous hand
some ladies In handsome dresses, but
shall maguanimously leave their de-
scription to n certain soulless, irrepres-
sible Jenkins, who was present with
his dreadful notebook and pencil.
Everybody but him had a good time,
and we are glad to know that a hand
some sum was realized toward the
worthy object for which the ball was
given.

peep at the assemblage, through the
ventllator on the roof, describes the
| dresses aud toilet Of the ladies to DO
most elegant and tasteful, and that tho
ladies themselves were the h~andsonest
he ever saw gathered into so large an
assemblage. He never saw a more re-
cherche and thoroughly agreeable So
cial, and the music under the leader
ship Of Professor jacobson. and the
supper by Legatc was all that could
be desired, but the bachelors them
selves we're the only objectionab Bile
feature. There were about seventy
five gentlemen present, all old bache-
lors, and all bald headed, without a
single exception-heads smooth and

Some couldn't be more bald without
setting their ears further down on
their necks.
