The Herry BacheIors' non.

Never in the history Of Stanford has so
grand and successful hop been given as
that by the Merry Bachelors Club on Tues
day night. The Club is composed OF our
incest young gentlemen. whose reputation
for gallantry aud honor is known wherev-
or they are known. They had LEFT undone
nothing that could add to the pleasure Of
their guests, and had spared no expense to
make it what it proved to bean enjoyable
occasion, never to be forgotten by those
who took part in IT, Curriers' Orchestra,
of Cincinnati, with Currier himselfas Direc.
tor, which they engaged for the night, alone
cost a large amount, while the Hall and
the costly printing they had done ran the
figures up TO large sum. Every thing
was. free 10 their guests, and they went on the
principle that il was useless to do any
thing unless il was we'll done, aud they
were thoroughly repaid for their exeriions
by the genuine delight displayed on all
sides. We have rarely seen so much beau.
ty, grace and fine dresses on any occasion,
nor more gallant and Landowner gentle
men. II We had space, We would speak Of
each young lady's charms individually,
but We have not, 50 We give the following
names and costumes, gotten up with the
assistance Of one Of the best and handsom-
est ladies in attendance.

Why is it that every young man in

Because they can buy them cheaper of $

lady love during Christmas. Bot he stopped
at Dalton and called in to see S. T.. Ows-
ley and bought of him a suit so cheap that
broad grin spread all over his face.
The Exhibition given at Bright's
school-House by the d. d. Club on the
night Of the 22d was complete success. A
very neat and well arranged stage was
erected in the rear Of the house. At an
early hour all the seats were taken. Each

more than an ordinary troupe to excel it.

The Christmas Tree at Providence was
a perfect success and was laden with many
