next Tuesday evening. The whole affair is in
the right hands and cannot fail of success.
The prelminaries are Of such nature as to
disregard the fluctuations of either thermome-
ter or barometer. and steadily and surely tend
to climax of gaiety and pleasure, as well as
to ELL the purse of this benevolent society. The
darker it is without the lighter it will be with
iu; the colder the air the roster the cheeks; the
more it SHOWS on the roof the warmer it will
be beneath it, and the more moist the streets
the more guarded will be the tiny feet in rub.
bers. Nothing has been left undone to
make this affair the grand event of
the season. Chandler's full quadrilie band
will furnish delicious music for the hsppv
hundreds who will join in the promenade, or
who will whirl, twirl and jostle each other on
the floor of the ball room. Bevies of young
ladies will be earnestly sought by gay gallants
for the dance and promenade, while in the gall
leries will be seen mothers and fathers, with
with their daughters and friends, who prefer
to watch the gay scene below them rather than
join in its Stands across, change partners, and
swing corners themselves.
An elegant supper will be provided with the
usualliberality of the many friends of the
Fraternity, and an abundance of walters will
be ready to dispense the same, and the com.
mittee in charge trust that Byron's Childe
Harold may be again realized:
ga thousand hearts beat happily; and when
Music arose with its yoluptuous SWELL

gay festal room, where every heart is beating
faster than the merry tune, and their blue eyes
are restless, and their lips parted with eager
Joy, and their round cheeks flushed with the
beautiful motion of the dance.' The German
will be very pleasing and attractive feature
of the occasion.
We doubt not that all will hugely en-
joy themselves, and not until every dance ON
the list has been.passed over will the young
gentlemen be satisfied "to go home with the
girls in the morning.
