SOrENlNG ) OF THE SPRING TRADE.-The
varied and continued bad weather has COM
bined with other circumstances to make the
spring trade rather backward this year, but
now merchants are arriving every day and
the streets begin to wear liyelier aspect.
Indeed, we may expect soon to see unusual
crowds Of people thronging the hotels, and
great activity in wholesale establishments and
other departments of trade. Our jobbers
have laid in very large and carefully selected
stocks, and in some branches unusual efforts
have been made to attract business. We can
safely assure merchants from any quarter
that their wants can be supplied quite as we'll
here as elsewhere, and upon as favorable
terms, while our lines of transportation
afford the greatest facilities for prompt
moving of all merchandise to its destination.

ST. PATRIcK's BALL.--Tfe ball Of the
Catholic Beneficial Society at Assembly Hall
last night was one Of the, most brilliant af-
fairs of the kind it {, has ever been our
pleasure to witness. The large hall was
literally crowded to oyerfowing with ladies
and gentlemen, there being barely room
enough on the floor for the dancers and the
hundreds of spectators. Dancing was COM
menced rather earlier than usual and kept up
with vigor until very late. The arrange
ments were SO complete that notwithstanding
the throng nobody suffered any inconvs-
nience, and the very best 0rderwas observed
throughout the evening. The various COM
mittees discharged their duties most eff
GENTLY, and were ,tnwavering in their atten-
tons to the guests. .E -@"f.st
At midnight large number of those pre-
sent went to the room below, where was
spread a bountiful and tempting array of
edibles and drinkables most tastefully ar
ranged. Some of the meats bore the initials
OF the society under whose auspices the bail
was given, &c. B.S.) with the figure of the
cross, The supper was gotten up, under the
