The PLAINS, Aug. 28, 1SS6.-The town
hall at this place, formerly the scene of
many pleasant incidents attendant with
mirth and JOY, has for reasons unknown to
us been closed up for nearly two years past
to ell purposes of social entertainment The
attention of the young men's club being
called to the existing status of affairs BY
their numerous lady friends, Thursday night
was selected as the most proptious time for
the revival and renewal of an old custom.
viz: dancing, that was fast falling into dis
use. Due preparation was accordingly
made for a grand hop aud german to dispel
the existing gloom. The ball is surround
ed by large trees, which were decorated
with Chinese lanterns, swinging lights,
transparencies, &C., Sc, some bearing ap.
propriate notices. One in particular, Just
over the gateway, struck US as being UNIQUE
in the extreme, reading, If you get there
before | do tell 'em | am coming too"
and they did come too, nearly two hun
dred cards of invitation being issued
The hall, by $50 p. M, was comfor.
tably filed, and exactly one hour later
floor manager Clark waived his silk baton
to which the orchestra responded with a
crash, followed by the soft strains of a pop.
ular waltz, and the ball had begun. The
lanciers, quadrilles, mazurkas. polkas and
schottishes were danced in succession, uu.
till 11:30, when refreshments were served
and every one "braced up" with genial ices
for the most prominent feature of the even
ing, viz the german, which commenced at
twelve sharp, under the leadership of that
eminent and graceful dancer, Mr.. L. Boiling
EHbertson, jr., of Broad Run. Beautiful
ladies and handsome men glded togethe.
through the dizzy mazes of the dance
Among the couples most noticeable for good
dancing were the following:

MANASSAS, Va, Sept. 1.-The funeral of
Capt. Chas. Limstrong, who died Monday
afternoon from the effects of the accident
which occurred on Sunday afternoon last,
by being thrown from his wagon, which
was published in the GAZETTE on Tuesday,
took place from Trinity church yesterday
afternoon at = o'clock. Drs. Iden, cf Man.
assas, Carkson, of Haymarket, and Simp-
son, of Fairfax county, attended the unfor.
tunate man and did everything in their
power to save his life, but all to no avail.
He came to this county about seventeen
years ago, and purchased farm from Mr..
Frank Cannon, about four miles from here.
where he has resided ever since until the
unfortunate accident. He was born in Eng
land and was for number of years captain
of vessel. lie was plain, unassuming
gentleman, and was highly respected. He
was one of those men whom no one could
say word against. He was q good citizen
and good husband. He leaves q wife and
seven children. His age was G5. He had
been for Il number of years connected with
tho Masonic fraternity.
Rev Mr.. Gray, pastor Of Trinity church.
officiated, assisted by Rev. Mr.. McGill, of
Ashland, near Richmond, former pastor of
this church. 1t was crowded TO overlooking
by his numerous sympathiziug friends. The
beautiful and impressive burial service of the
Episcopa! church was read by Rev. Mr..
Gray, after which he spoke feelingly and
be be1utifuily Of the necessity of preparing for
1.-THE Tomorrow" His remarks were listen.
cd to with deep and earnest attention. The
beautiful hymn Nearer My God to Thee"
was sung with great feeling. After the SER
vices at the church the remains were followed
to the Manassas cemetery by many mourning
friends The funeral was very large one, eve
ry paru ofthe county being represented. The
pall-bearers (Who are all masons) were
Messrs. Chas. +. BraWner, Samuel S. Burge.
Capt. w. c. Burkett, A. B. French, c. l..
Hynson, and Il. Mulligan. The undertaken
was G. W. Hixson.
About 10 o'clock last night the good
people OF this town was stirred up for very
brief time, many of them thinking that the
millennium had come. The earthquake
shcck, which we noticed in the morning
papers was felt nearly ell over the county,
was the cause Of the coumotion. Nobody
could understand what it was, and, of course,
all were considerably alarmed One of the

too much during the day, thought his time

Why He Never Married,

New York Letter to Baltimore
American: People have often wonder
ed that man of Mr.. Tilden's vast
wealth, domestic tastes, and political
prominence remained bachelor all his
life. Rumor is that during his college
days at tho New York University he
met and loved the daughter of one of
the leading Democratic statesmen of
that time. She was a beautiful girl,
charming alike in the graces of her
person and her intellectually. Her
beauty and wit attracted many suitors.
but Mr.. Tilden'S culture and rare
qualities of mind captivated Ler. He
was brilliant conversationalist and
had lofty aspirations, and the evidences
of his ability to achieve prominence
were so marked that the beautiful girl
pledged her heart and fortunes to his
keeping. They were engaged to be
married in the spring of 1847, the year
after Mr.. Tilden had become member
of the State Legislature.
Ouo accompanied noE 1atncT 10 w 3Sl-
ington, where he went to spend the
winter of that year in looking after
Government matters in which he was
interested. While there she was "a
great favorite in society and entered
heartily into all its pleasures. In the
month of March she was stricken with
brain fever, which left her hopeless
imbecile.
Not many years ago he formed an at
tachment for daughter of the late
Prof. S. F. b. Morse and offered her
his heart and hand. The lady did not
look with favor on HIS suit, although
the advantages of the connection were
so great and it was so warmly advo-
Gated by her own family. MIR. Tilden s
proposal was twice declined. But his
want of success made no difference in
the friendly feelings of the parties con-
cerned, and when, shortly afterward,
Miss Leila Morse married Mr.. Frame
Rummel, the well-known pianist, one
of the wedding presents was a 81, 900
check from Mr.. Tilden.

The PopO's Golden Rose.

Pail Mall Gazette: The receipt by
the Queen Regent of Spain of the
golden rose has led some curious wri-
ter to put together the following par
ticulars concerning the flower: Tho
first of these roses were simple flowers
of red enamel, representing the nat
ural color of the rose. Later the color
of the rose was left white, and large
ruby was put into the centre, the re-
Election from which gave the petals
red tint. Innocent ri. had golden
rose mado which weighed over eight
pounds, was ornamcnted with several
sapphires, and represented a value of
over 1O,0OOf. Alexander VII. ordered
one rose 1T ,OOOf, and another at A. OOf.
Lately the golden rose has been worth
over 100000, and has taken the form
| of branch with several flowers, a
natural rose, which has been blessed
by the Pope, forming the centre. Of
this kind is the rose which the Queen
Regent of Spain has just received.
1t is planted in a magnificent silver
gilded vase. which is a splendid exam
pie of Roman workmanship. The rose
itself is said to be symbol of the
Creator; the splcndor and richness of
the metal represent the eternal light
which surrounds the Divine: and the
perfumes and spices, which are placed
in the vase by the Pope, symbolic the
glory and resurrection of Christ. The
benediction of the rose is a solemn
ceremony. The Holy Father, in his sa-
cred robes, reads the formula of the
benediction from 4 book which is held
by Bishop. Two other Bishops hold
ing lighted candles stand by his side
The high dignitaries of the Papal
Court surround the PoDtiff, holding
the incense, the holy water, the spices,
and other perfumes. Another digni-
tary kneeling presents the rose to the
Pope, who reads the prayers. blesses
the incense. the spices, and the per-
fumes which are in turn presented to
him by Cardinal, and after putting
them into the vase which holds tho
rose the golden rose is blessed and the
ceremony ends.
