This acso- ciation, like all itssocieties, is mainly ebari- ty; but that dees not exclude from its uembers good fellowship and social enjoyment, even to the indulgence of a little‘‘barley brew.”’ The Tatelligencer says: “On Friday night the su- ciety assembled round a supper table spread by J. Miller with a banquct rarely equalled for goodness and abeananien. he worthy President of the society, Gilbert Cameron, presided, assisted by Messrs. Ballantyne end John Swith as Vice Presidents. Toasts and songs and speeches, with quantum suff. (not a drop too much) of slenlivet hot brew, mark- ed the eveng as one of the pleasantest, a guest informs us, which he ever enjoyed. It was every way, in sentiment and temperate plea- sure, worthy of old Scotland’s patron saint and of the estimable citizens who have formed the society. It isto be hoped that a more particular account may be furnished for the gratification of sister sucietics and of our read- ers generally.’ Tas Bare ov tae Wasmixeton Higurasy- BxS. which will take place on the 6th of De- cember, ix, we understand, to be of a most brilliaut character, judging from arrar ments mude by that admirable corp: A number of military brethren from Baltimore und elecwhere are to be present on the o¢ sion, and as several ef the members of the company are to appear in the romantic and chivalric fall dress of the Highlander, this will add unsurpassing interest to the enter- tainment. We hear that nearly all the tick- ets of admission are disposed of; hence it is doubtful whether all those desirous of enjoy- i ball will have an opportunity to do so. ps deserve to be well patronized, as no effort is left unheeded which ean give plea- sure and satisfaction, as their former enter- ments have fully proven.

Connixe.—Yesterday, a mannamed Malich‘ Ryan was cent tojail, for some alleged offence. It is said there is a law or rule among tie prisoners of that institution to make every new@omer pay “a footing’’ of fifty cents, or, in default of this, to be “cobbed.’? Ryan had vo money, so, therofore, he was cobbed. his bedy being much bruised by the operation It is probable the general assault of the pris- oners on the unfortunate man will be brought to the attention of the grand jury. _Orricer Wx.
