1t is difficult to estimate Jobs wealth :

OF money at the extremes of the three
thousand years leaves us at a loss to cal>

needed; 1000 sheep would require a
range OF as many acres, 1000 camels

OF oxen an equal range Of five acres with
the camels; 500 asses about two acres
each; and his household which was

3. To tend such vast herds. according
to the custom of the east, the number Of
lab9rers must have been large. Abraham,
contemporary with Job, could muster in

FALSE FACE FAspANaos-Nail Oily
Masgurade.-Last night the Nail City
Boat Club, assisted by numerous invited
guests, enjoyed one Of those grand spec.
tacular balls more generally known as
a masquerade. It was held at their new
club house, and was largely attended. A
special reporter Of the 1aTEILldENcER
was detailed to take in the carnival.
Unfortunately he was prevailed upon to
take part 10 the festivities. He became
so carried away with the pleasures Of the
evening that he was reckless OF the lapse
Of time or the consequences Of tarrying too
long away from his cell in the sanctum;
hence no extended report Of the ball.
We understand, however, that the affair
was a social as we'll as pecuniary sue.

GERMAs1A AsSIvERsARy EXERCISE
"A pleasant company assembled last
evening at Germania Hall, corner Market
and 14lh streets, 1t being the occasion Of
the ninth anniversary OF the Germauia
Singing Society. The scene was exceed
ingty brilliant, and the crowds OF fair
women and brave men were such as to re-
mind one OF the olden times which We
read OF and scarcely expect to see in this
workadsy, busy, financially .bad. off.world
Theladies were in alltheglory ofexquisite
dress and good temper and bright eyes
and glowing cheeks. The hall was pref
tily decorated with aags, the music OIL
the very best, and the bellies and beaux
whirled about in the bewitching mazes Of
the dance to the inspiring strains Of Vie.
wig and his gifted co .laborers.
There was a sort OF preliminary to the
terpsichorean pleasures, which was
highly enjoyed by oil. After an
overture by the orchestra the Society
sang greeting chorus, with 6ne
effect. The President Of the Society
Mr.. Christian srhnepf, then delivered ar
address, which covered the history OF The
Society from ita inception nine years age
until the present day. Many old RENT
niscences were briefly alluded to by Mr.
Schnepf, andhis address, whichwas couch
ed in excellent language, may be consid
cred valuable acquisition TO the histo'
ry Of the Society.
Following the address were three songs
Illustrative Of the progress Of the Soci
ETY.. The first was sung by five
OF the nine charter members OF the soci
ely. The second, entitled "Freedom,
was sung by members who joined the as
ISOLATION some three or four years since
and the whole closed with the Wurlz-
burger March, sung by the whole choir
After this there was comic play, en-
titled "a Load OF Wood" 10 which
Messrs. Henry G. Meyers, H. Shutter and
II. Grohme took active parts. The play
closed with tableau entitled "The Birth
Of Society,"
Next came waltz, a guadrille, a march
and-supper. The ladies who served the
supper were very amiable and obliging
fine art, for to make everything SO pleas
ant to The assembled guests is not to be
learned in day. The supper was il
every sense success. Toasts were re
sponded to as follows: To the Germania
Singing Society, by Mr.. II. Q. Meyers e
the ladies Of the Society, by Mr.. Loni'
Collamer; 10 German Song and Music
by Mr.. Edward scheufilsr.
