A SURPRISE. - Whether it was a sur
prise to the performers or TO the lady for
whom the serenade was intended We
leave our readers to judge. On Tuesday
evening last few of our young friends
who are unsteady inclined, repaired 10
the residence of the Superintendent OF
some Of the mines of Phoebe, intending
10 surprise his daughter with serenade,
not having informed her OF the inten-
ton beforehand, as is usually the case.
On arriving at the residence OF the lady
the musicians stepped lightly on the pi-
aZza intending to burst forth with the
music as the first warning, but just as
they had secured an excellent position
the front door opened and the father ap-
peared, remarking that the wind was
blowing pretty hard and it would per-
haps be better if the unsteady inclined
performed their music inside of the
house. The invitation was quickly &C.
cepted and walking in they found to
their establishment the whole family
awake instead of in bed as they expected.
The result was, although they did not
surprise the lady in the least, they tried
to render themselves as agreeable as pos
sible by their performance of musical
selections, in which the lady participated,
after which wine and cake was discussed,
when the party retired well satisfied that
they had passed a pleasant evening.
They intend in future to warn all parties
whom they design surprising, as their
reception on Tuesday evening makes
them think that it is better to be re-
ceived in the dwelling than to stand out
side.
