he Grand, Fashionable, Fourierite, Metro- politan, Terent son leew Faney Ball at Miss Smuggias’. A FANCY SKETCH. The highly fashionable boarding house, over whose affairs the accomplished Mies Smuggins pre- sides with unequalled tact and dignity, was the scene of the greatest confusion and excitement for a fortnight previous to yesterday. A grand free- and-easy Fancy Ball, under the management of some half dozen old bloods and young bankers’ alerks, was on the ¢apis, and ineffecting the necee sary-arrangements, the whole house was necessarl- ly thrown into considerable disorder. It was, how- ever, submitted to with the greatest possible good nature by the “boarders,” amongst whom are some of the very sweetest, nicest, most fashionable, most good-natured, and affectionate ladies in the city 5 and amongst the gentlemen, several who are proba- bly unsurpassed any where for the luxuriance of their moustache, and the fertility of their resources for effecting that beautiful and very philosophical process, denominated “raising the wind.” The “boarders,” then, without a murmur, ate in the basement and kitchen, slept three in a bed in the garret rooms, and submitted to a thousand inconve- niences rather than hinder in the slightest degree the progress of the magnificent, judicious, every- sort-of-shift preparations for the grand “free and easy” joint stock Fancy Ball. The whole of the second floor was thrown open, consisting of the dining room, Mrs. Green’s bed- room, Dr. Epsom’s apartment, and the two clocets occupied by Mr. Seedy and Count Blowmynoseoff. Nothing could have been more brilliant than the tout ensemble of this elegant suite of rooms just be- fore-the company began to arrive. Five Astral lamps with only two broken shades amongst them, had been borrowed for the occasion, and in addi- tion to the three belonging to the house, half a dozen of Judd’s best sperm candles on the mantel pieces, and six very neat tin “sconces” nailed up between the folding doors, illuminated the apart- ments witha brilliancy far exceeding that of the noon-day, gun. The decorations were remarkably unique and tasty. Tissue paper of all the colors of the rainbow had been cut into fantastic shapes and hung’suspended from the ceiling in graceful fee too! The carpetshad been taken up, all the old tacks carefully nuiled down, and after a tremen- dous expenditure of soap and water, the floors had, under the superintendence of Miss Molly O’Flana- gan, assumed a really clean appearance, and did not indeed look at all like boarding-house floors.— A very liberal supply of lemonade and any quanti- ty of delicious ‘dough nuts” and ginger bread,were placed on one of the large kitchen tables which had been transferred to the lobby. + In the hurry and bustle before the ball commenced, a number of children, ostensibly belonging to some of the boarders, made a sortie on the gingerbread, but were fortunately repulsed by Count Blowmynose- off, who was then on his way from the kitchen with a shirt collar and wristbands, which Sally, one of the chambermuids, had kindly washed for him that afternoon. The third and fourth floors were also ‘thrown opens” and the attic suite of apartments, three in number, and usually tenanted by the goddesses of the spit and broom, were fitted up as dressing rooms. Altogether the “arrangements” were in ad- mirable style, Miss Smuggins declared that every thing looked charming. Mrs. Green eaid the same, and so did Mrs. Blown, andso did Mrs. Howl, and so did Mrs. Splutter, and so did Mrs. Everybody, and all assured Miss Smuggins that she would posi- tively “astonish the Browns.” Mise Smuggins and all the lady boarders were now dressed and waiting up stairs in the attic, in a dreadful state of nervous excitement. They were all in a perfect flutter. Mr. Twitcher, Count Blowmynoseoff, Mr. Greens, and Mr. Diddler, the fashionable bank clerk, who had been particularly interested in getting up the ball, were also a little fidgetty. Like generals on the eve of a decisive battle, they were uneasy "till they saw how the thing went off. At length the company began to arrive, and inZ very short time, the roomson the second floor were all a perfect jam. Such a motley crowd and such a vétious gathering has never been seen in this city since the celebrated O’Degherty Fancy Ball, in 1840. All New York was there ; that is, all the distinguished fashionables of the present refined, elegant, moral respectable régime. Ac- complished dry goods clerks and druggists—genteel barbers and bakers—elegant bar-keepers and but- ton-makers—charming warehousemen and watch- stuffers—refined tobacconists and tailors—polite shoemakers and shirt-venders were there ; but the greatest portion of the males consisted of elegant men about town, who follow the highly fashion- able profeasion of living by their wits. The ladies presented an equally agreeable and fashionable diversity of social condition. Division street, the Bowery, Waverly Place, and Broadway were all represented. Every caste and every style of beauty, from the saucy soubrette of the east end, to the dignified lady of a retired green-grocer up town, were there. It was a charming, republican. interesting, amusing, philosophical admixture of youth and wrinkles, nature and art, verdancy and cuteneas, down-town and up-town—all seasoned and spiced with a profusion oLNew York morality, decency, virtue and refinement. Such'a crowd! Turks, Spaniards, Greeks, In- dians, Chinese, Irish, Swiss girls and Jersey girls, queens, pieceass peasants, loafers, brigands, nuns, ballet-girls, Sypeies, all sorts of characters which the wardrobes of the Chatham, Olympic and Park, and the warehouses of Chatham street could furnish. The rooms were go small that the most amusing scenes occurred in consequence of the pressure. One fat, red-haired woman of forty, who appeared as Queen Victoria, was crushed almost to death in a corner, where she was driven by an In- dian chief, and a fellow who appeared in the very appropriate character of a jackass. Her majesty, after vainly struggling to escape, at last went into hysterics, and was carried off in_ the arms of the jackass, who emptied a tumbler of lemonade in her face, effectually washing off the chalk and red paint, and sending her majesty shrieking to one of the rooms up stairs, when she again fell into the arms of Mr. Diddler, who personated a pickpocket, and who was just then embracing a tall thin lady, dressed as Queen Esther Mr. Diddlerimmediate- 7 disappeared, leaving the rival queens to arrange their regal robes, and recover their majestic digni- ty as thev could. | There was evidently no squeamish—no aflect- ed—no mock set amongst the ladies. Most of them made a most liberal isan of their person- al charma—snowy necks—swel ling busts—white round arms—divinely chiselled ankles—and limbs of fanitlesssymmetry, were seen in all their naked loveliness, or hi#li-concealed by the fascinating dra- pery of the thinnest guaze. And their conduct was equally liberal and bew phe free from prudery, of each it might have been said— “ Favorsto all—to all she smiles extends, Not once rejects—so never once offends.” They bore the crushing and the crowding with charming good nature, and altogether exhibited to the fullest perfection, that delightful abandon which a Fancy Batt is so pre-eminently calculated, and indeed intended to encourage. They waltzed— and flirted—and hung upon their partners’ arms— with delicious looseness, and the little episodes which occurred in the ‘lounging rooms”—in the lobbies—and in the more retired corners of the grand suite of rooms, would have been worthy of the Bevel of Engene Sue. bey ae horrid man presses against me so mare meres, peasant girl. : “ Pshaw, ec! il, how green you are!” exclaimed a tall stout woman, dressed as an Amazon. “Really, sir, you annoy me.” * Divine creature, allow me”— be husband is always at home at that hour” - “Mary, won't you speak to me?

It is time that we should give some of the principal nymes and characters :— «+s + as Queen Mab ‘as an ‘Indian Maiden .+.a8 Joan of Are a Jersey Girl ++ as Diana a Nun Ida veces ees af Juno as an Indian Princess . .a8 Lady Macbeth Mrs. Anne Page +8 Rosalind . . as a Sorceress as Cinderella ..a8 a Gitana a Scotch Girl Tlasa Spanish Lady -as an Eastern Slave seve eee eat Day Priestess of the Sun 3 an Amazonian Maid . -a8 a Bright Star Portia f Victoria asa Fortune-Teller ‘as Amelia Norman vax Madam De La Tour Amongst the gentlemen the most distinguished were— Mr. B—, sesses sas Jeremy Diddler Mr. <Jas'a Wall street Broker Mr. ickpocket Mr. ney Swe] Mr. as the Devil Jackass statf Clo’ Man 8 Othello is Short a Robber a Defaulter a G.T.T. rofessor Mafiit .. a8 a Fourierite ‘as a Fighting Congressman . as a Bull Dog vag a Pimp sa Glutton "i J Tas a Beggerman isa New York Gentleman . a Baboon yee .

In a few minutes afterwards the Turk and Ophe- lia were in earnest conversationin a corner of the room. q “You did, sir, you perjured villain!” “Calm yourself, my dear creature, remember we are observed.” “T cannot, sit; oh! fool, fool, that I am! But re- member you, sir, thatI can hate as well as”— But here the Buboon,who had somehow or other got the plump and lovely Madam de la Tour in his embraces came whirling against the fair Ophelia, who seemed in a fair way of following her celebra- ted namesake, and the remainder of the conversa- tion between her and the gentler an who had, appe red, been pacrying the maintenance of his chara ar, ter a little too was lost. Before the evening was pver, however, we perceived that eA BOE) q phelia had indeed drowned all her sorrows—in whiskey. “Twas at the sign of the fork, Young Patrick first opened his throttle, And being a Native” — “Stop your detestable noise, sir; the only[Natives we tolerate are the Native Americans,” interposed the individual who represented the NewYork Gen- tleman.” “And in troth, sir, but its only by passive tolera- tion that you're allowed. to show your uly mug anywhere ; and By the piper that played before Moses, sir, I’ll tache you the doctrine of passive obedience ; so be off wid ye,” and the. Hibernian, who we must say was ‘a little in liquor,” here administered a iow to the native gentleman’s skull-cap, which sent him sprawling on the floor, to the terrible discomfiture of Queen Mab whose auze_garments he had seized on to preserve him from falling, and which of course siving way, left her charming majesty in a condition very similar to that of Queen Venus; although in truth this ac- cident to her majesty’s wardrobe revealed very few charms which were invisible one minute be- fore. “Ha, ha, ha, oh! oh! oh! boys, did you ever see the like of that?” “OF what?” “Oh! did you ever” : “Hold me, Tom, I shall expire!” “ By all the goda, this beats the ‘ dignity ball’ all | to pieces.” “Oh! oh! oh! he, he, he, oh! hold me. burst a blood-vessel !” e Fortunately, however, for her majesty, in the scuffle, an indispensable appendage to the dress it seemed even of Queen Mab, had given way, and a cloud of down and feathers was the consequence, which in a moment or two completely veiled her from the eyes of the crowd, and escorted by four or five of if r attendant fairies, she hurried to one of the dressing-rooms, and with the aid of a needle and thread, half a_dozen pocket-handkerchiefs, a sillow from Mrs. Green’s bed, and a stiff glass of randy and water, her majesty was able to make her appearance again, looking almost as good as new. ‘ “Oh! crikey do you see our Bill Smith!” “ Yaw, ’pon. my honor, so it is; what is that he has got with him—eh ? 2 «Bgad, that’s the girl he picked up at the Chat- ham last year—” “You don’t say so. awe “He was devilish hard put about to get dresses, but John Povey lent him some of Shylock’s togge- ry, and she got a fancy drese from one of her old friends of the Chatham.” er “Flow did he get over that last little afluir ?"" ‘What, that about the till?” © Yes.” “Oh! it’sall right, my cove, but he has to be cautious just now, you know. He'll make another raise soon.” 3 ‘So there they go—a down town clerk and his friend I shall Well now—that’s really compliments of a celebrated auctioneer, who 1s dressed asa pirate, and whose taste in wine anc women is indisputable. Queen Victoria is seen at the other end of the table, looking unutterable majesty. A variety of other characters figure in the back-ground; and the band, it will be seen, are discoursing most eloquent music, accompanied by the variations on the knife and fork, at the table. The Turk. | j | After supper, tabruptly broken ‘several of the the table having been rather down, in consequence of gentlemen, and the jackass Down-town Clerk and “friend.” Why not?

He has a wife and family up town in a handsome | house—he has also a pretty suite of roomsin Broad- way—about which the Priestess of the Sun can tell you. Why not? He has failed twice for twenty thonsand dollars—and is now “ going it as strong” as ever. Why cannot he make a “raise” as well as his clerk? Arcades ambo.

The brandy and water and ginslings, and whiskey toddy for the ladies, had cireulated pretty freely; and the noise grew so fast and furions, that the watchman, who had been properly “arranged” and bound oversatisfactorily by one of the gentleman managers to keep the peace, and take no not “if any thing should oceur,” sent up several messages requesting “the gentle- men” to keepa leetle quiet, ‘as the people wot lived next door were a poppin’ their heads out to know what was the matter.” [t was just abont this time, when supper was announced, our reporter took a sketch of the scene in the supper room, and the artist has very faithfully transferred iton the eut, which we annex. The Tady to the right, who is addressed by the clown, is the accomplished dangh- ter of the ex-President of an exploded Wail street Bank. She has been told thather ankles are ex- actly of the same measurement as those belonging to the “Statue which enchants the world.” and it willbe perceived that her dress has an ap- propriate brevity.
