A LADY,S SHOE.

Some young lady-we say
''young lady" because, properly
speaking. lady never grows old
by mistake or oversight, left
one of her OvershOes at Browns
Hall on Monday evening last, on
the occasion of the festival given
for the benefit Uf Rev II. B. Nc
Bride. A Iady's veil and cape
were also picked mp after the fes-
'tival and are retained at the hall,
awaiting claimants. But the
pretty little shoe demands par

minuitive size which would re

came upon one of his sisters slip

put into his trunk. The hardy
miners learned that there was

determined to make he occasion
a memorable one. A lawyer who
was mining there, mounted a
stump and delivered an extern
pore address on the occasion,
aboundiDg in eloquent words des-
rriptive nf' womau'S virtues. Af-
ter drinks all around dozen
times or more, ring was formed
and all the boys joined heartily in
II d ,nce. And thus was celenrat
ed in that camp tine discovery of
