the scene last evening was ons Of
rare brllliancy and gro;esqse nirn-
iery. Upon entering the hall, the
first booth b. in the form Of an old
upturned boat-hulk -" Peggotys"
and within are seen the most remark.
able Of Dickens characters which
need no explanation. The Artful
Dodger is there. picking every.
body's pockets. Miss Elite, with
her bird-cages; Mrs. Micawber with
her twins; Aunt Betsy Trotwood,
showing" off the donkeys; Cap'n
Cutie with his hook-hand; The
Pickwick Club and Sam Weller; Will
lin Barkis and his Peggoty; Quilp,
the dwarf, and q score of others.
Another booth shows Whittier's
snow-bound cottage, containing the
serene Quaker family, an open fire
with big white cat curled up COM
fortably on the hearth-rug. Rip
Van Wrinkle stretches and croaks
and hobbies about in wonder-strick-
en- sort of way. Aladin's Cave is
wondrous depth of glitteripe rocks
adjoining his palace, wherein sits the
hero of fairy-land, with his prin-
cess. mayicians and attendants. One
booth is fitted up with shells, coral,
sea-weeds and rocks to represent julie
Vernes' Twenty Thousand Leagues
under the Sea-" The Queen and
her attendants are in sea-green tarl-
ton with trailing moses for trim
mings and coral and pearls for orna-
ments. But the most attractive
booth to many is that which is fitted
up rs an artists studio wherein sits
Winnie Ream, modelling n bust from
life. Her subject is Lieutenant
Hoxie, to whom report says Miss
Winnie is engaged to be married. He
is a fat, red-faced man with very
curly hair, a very double-chin and o
deep scar over one eyebrow, which
the little sculptures takes extra
pains to bring out in clay. Perhaps
it is the sign of some battle wound.
The temperance interest that has
had such fervent run here, appears
to abate very little. Meetings are
still continued at the various churches
and much enthusiasm prevails. 1t
is pity the influence is not felt IN
Congressional halls. 1t is great
pity that, while the rank and file are
struggling against the tyrant Alco-
hol, our Senators aud Representa-
tives should he INDUCING in and
