A PLEASANT EVENING. In some
way our citizens found out that
Monday was the twenty-fifth we'd
ding anniversary of Mr.. and Mrs.
Horace Fairbanks; and during the
evening, without the slightest pre-
monitiOn, a large number of gentle
men and ladies called at their resi-
dence and paid their respects and
offered congratulations. An hour
or two passed in most pleasant and
social manner; and it may be a
matter of doubt which party enjoy
ed it most, the host and hostess, or
the unlimited though not nnwel-
come guests. 1t must have occur
red to some, how much better such
an imprompth affair was, in this in
stance, at least, than a more formal
observance of the anniversary,
where more would be expected Of
both parties. AS if to heighten the
enjoyment of the evening, about
nine o'clock the band appeared upon
the lawn in front of the residence,
and for nearly an hour poured out
into the midsummer night air the
melody for which it is getting so fa-
NOUS aledonian.
