There were Indian regents In red saddle,

upon the floor, If not he. The usual num-
ber of funny characters were represented on
the floor. There we're court fools, clowns,

be said of the ladies, who disguised them"
selves as princesses, peasant girls, fortune
tellers SC. The merry maze of the
dance gave pleasure during the night to its
votaries. We noticed several of our well
known citizens upon the floor, the disguise
of the mask and strange costume not being
sufficient to hide their identity. The parties
unmasked after II O'Clock, and much mer-
riment resulted from mutual recognitions.
