tanment given in behalf of the Portland Fra
ternity at City Hall last evening was grand
success The company was large and select
and all appeared to enjoy the occasion highly.
The refreshment room was well patronized and
the receipts from this room alone must have
been large.
The hall was decorated with notices and
looked very attractive. The decorations were
arranged by William Allen, Jr.. who, as usual,
displayed excellent taste in the arrangement.
The following mottoss were hung around the
galleries: "Liberality to the Poor" ''Uni-
versal Love to Mankind" ''Those deeds of
charity which we have done shall stay forever
with u.s." "Fraternity." SIN Union there is
Strength" "For worthy aim we seek sue
cess to aid our brothers in success ''Ative

address of Col. Musgrove, our State
orange agent at the North west, before
The Legislature of Illinois. By the no.

that he subsequently delivered an address
at the Capital of Michigan in which he
presented the claims of Mississippi to i'm
migration, and her advantage of soil and

tlcal remark, which had characterized u.
previous addresses.
