Jan. 29, 1847. The Danbury House—Splendia Ball. As I was engaged in my room, on Thursday even- , 28th instant, perusing a literary work of interest, my attention was attracted by the constant passing of carriages, laden with the most precious of freight—the beaux and belles of this and aneighboring town. It called to my mind the fact that the evening for the great ball at the Danbury house had arrived. I started for the scone of amusement. As Lentered the bar room of the Danbury house, I met the agreeable and generous proprieto:, Mr. N. B. Turner. I occupied a few minutes in ob- serving the room in which I then was, and its occu- ants. ‘The room ia spacious, well fighted—every thing possesses an ble comfort. I looke for the two frequent tendants of bar room scenes—the boisterous mirth and otee. ‘The occ upants of |, intelligent looking gentle country, grouped together in jet revelry of the bacchani the room were well dr from city, town ani partir f {rom two to si: discussing the politics of thi and mrits of balls, parties, and re I then passed into tlemen’s reading or sitting room, which ‘one we had just left, [ found to be of ‘reoable temperature, and so well lighted, by means of a newly fashioned lamp, that one could find no difficulty in seeing to read in part of it. I noticed in the centre of the room a table, whose spa- cious area was covered with newspapers, consisting of several Now York dailies, with those from surroundiag In an angle of the room is a library, consisting of somo two or three hundred volumes, comprising books of art, 06, history, religion, together with muck of To the south, the readin, 1, illuminated by an astra entre of the ceiling.

A few words with reference to the sleeping partments, and J shall have furnished but a poor de- ‘iption of a house which must indeed be attractive to nd the man of leisure. These apartments wutifully carpeted, and pro giates, or stoves, Ieould not but admire the neatness and cleanliness of the beds and bedding : the sheets and pillow casos seemed to vie in whiteness with the driven lendid apartment; and, on the evening in question, kkling lights diffused their mellow rays throughout it, equalled only by the lustrous orbs of the many fair ones who graced the room with their p sence. The walls and windows were hung with twigs of ivy and branch evergreen, which were fee tooned in various forms upon their surlace. The musicians, who were from the village of Ossinsing, executed their part to the admiration and delight of the participators and spectators in this scene of festivity. It waa really ‘olightfal to look upon the many merry faces there ; the perfect absence of care and sorrow which all countenances wore, lod me almost to forget that we could experience such feeli tions, Cotillon after cotillion was begun and ended; the some sprightliness, vivacity, and guiety reigned from the commencement to the ending of the evening ; it spoke forth in the light step, the joyous laugh, the bewitching smile, and the uoremitted intercha.ge of the most cour- teous and engaging civilities, The two Misses B., of D, Ie cel charmingly lovely, all smiles, and many is the lord of the creation who on that evening bowed in pl ing tubmistion to the magic charm of beauty.
