Irving Uall had tts strength severely tested last evening by a congregation of solid, substantial and obese men, Woluen and children. The Occasion was the first annual ball of the Fat Men’s Association. This affuir has been talked about for the past three months, and the fashionable world was in a fever of excitement lest Mrs. Grundy should be omitted from the list of the invited. All fears on that point, however, were set aside long before twelve o'clock last night, as all the “groai’ people and many of the small ones presented their picturesque pasteboards and entered into the temple set apart for the “Fat Men’s jubilee.” To at- tempt to estimate the total weight of human flesh which entered through the afore- said gte would be a work of sheer supe rerogation, ana to make an average would ve equally dultcolt, although the range may be put aowu Letween 240 and 300 pounds. However this may have beet one thing 18 certain—Irving Hall never looked better than it did last night. Not only had the hail itself been decoratea by work- men sO a8 tO appear unusuaily bright, but, iu addition to this renovation, the room was made exceedingly attractive by the presence of au anusual number of fair and beautiful ladies, Whatever the pecuilar attractiveness of gentlemen weighing 300 pounds may be, ono thing is certain, and that is the eye of the spectator experienced a pleasant reilef In looking from a suit of clothes enclosing @ Leavy weight to the beautiful toilets and elegant colffeurs of the ladies who accompanied the great obese. ‘The brilliancy of the gaslight was but a glimmer compared with the flashing of the prectous gems Sparkllug on the persons of the elegantly dressed sadies and the snowy shirt bosoms of the gentiemen. ‘Phe floor of the @ne hall was thronged ibrough the entire evening with the votaries of the dance, and the galleries were no less crowded with fair specta- tors, with and without thetr swains, Im the central -. of the balcony sat a beautiful lady, dressed tn ‘he helght of fashion, and who, on standing upou the acule, by partlenlar request of the association, Upped the beam at 200 pounds, Grafuila’s Seventh regiment band, both string brass, occupibd the right and left ends of eliner bal- conies, and discourged the most popular and select dancing and promenade Susie, bag which were two pieces expressly arranged for the Fat Mena’ as- ata ay h of tan early hour of the evening crowds began four into the ball, and long before the lights rere turned on in the ball room a buge mass of finely dressed humanity and well covered anatomy had assembled, bent upon having @ good time, and, as far as beaming Soanveaanots very Fina laugh. rand merry tripping fee an todicatio; class time was had by every Mody. oT" At ‘‘the witching hour of night, when churchyards yGwn,” &c., &c., the Neus of the heavy Weights” muste: for @ grand march in order to proceed to supper.

Winewoll, Condition and Appearance—Cause of the Disaster—Abandoning Houses in the Vicinity—Thé Pre- sent Situation. Hazevron, Ps., Dec. 20, 1860. The company, under the directorsnip of Messrs. Lindermann and Carr, employed a gang of men, twenty-five atrong, to enter the cave, early on Satur- day afternoon, to commence the digging for the buried victims. This gang of men was relieved afver 8 few hours of labor, and so the work continued day and night, Heavy pillars of woodwork were con- structed and well supported, so as to secure the laborers and enable them to continue their work. On Sunday, late in the evening, the bodies of Mrs. Schwenok, her daughter and the baby, were found lying together and badly bruised; the right leg of the daughter Rosie was almost entirely severed from the body; they were found with their clothes on—clean skirts, and even the hoops were found un- broken on them. 'Tho bodies were hauled up over & temporary rafiroad of wood, erected frofh the top to the bottom, and o% d¢rival on the surface of mother earth were placed in wooden boxes prepared for this purpose ana deposited in house No, 3, Mother and baby rest in one box and the daughter in another. The mon also found # pocketbook containing fifty dollars, belonging to Mr. Witheraw, and & watch belonging to Mr. Lanahan—both persona who ilved in house No, 4 and were saved. Up to the time of writing mo otber persous had been found. THE MINE, ‘This part of the mine has not been worked the last fifteen years, and has been entirely abandoned, the approaches being considered dangerous. Under the houses Nos, 5 and 6 a pillar was allowed to remain, And was supposed strong enough to support the mass of earth above, But the caving in of a part of the ground above the pillar weakened the same 60 much that the balance soon followed; thus the accl- dent. No person a8 yet bas been heard to charge the present proprietors, Mosars. Lindermann & Carr, with any neglect or fault, aa their new mine is Jay- ing 300 feet deeper, and is well supported and mined with the best skill and care. There was great dan- ger up to this morning that the coal vein would catch fire, but ail trouble is passed, as some miners have entered the chamber and found it all right. A NEW FALL, Just above the cave of Saturday the ground way yeaterday aud @ new cave or hole is formed. ‘This has scared the inhabitants of the neighboring houses so much that they have abandoned their Teaidences. Even the store goods are now Temoved. ‘fhe company takes great precau- tion that no new disaster may happen. The chief of the firm, Mr. Lindermann, is watching the work day and night and has offered all necessary assistance. The blame for the aisaster will no doubt be found to lay on the former owners, who neglecied to make the propor dralts before they abandoned this payt of the mine. It appears to me twat ignorance of the proper location of thia old breast prevented the taking of proper precaution. As yet the mass of visitors has not stopped to pour into Stockton. Great gloom prevails, although there ia no grumbling to be heard; only exclama- tions of pity and awe. AMUSEMENTS. WALLACK's THEATBR.—O'Keofe’s fino old comed of “Wild Outs’? Was produced at this theatre The night. The acting and the manner in which it bas been put on the stage calla to mind old umes. The anpouncemenc of the production of “Wild Oats” drew a large and fashionable house, and if hearty plaudits and oft-repeated encores are to be taken as indications of the satisfaction of an audience those who were present inust have been well pleased. Few of the late revivals at Wallack’s have been received with auch marks of favor, and its repetition we anticipate will be ty oy with pleasure. Mr. Lester Waliack played ver with all the hamor, dash, race and occasional touches of feeling which have tinguished his ;piayiug of the same part in years gone by. He lost mone of nis vigor—and cortatuly he has owitted none of the oped polnts which are liberally oe turougliout this sterilag old comedy. Mr. John Gil- bert's Sir George Thunder was another fine effort of this rellae actur; and Mr. J. H. Stoddart was no way behind hand in giving & just iaterpretation o; the hypccritical Ephraim. Joha Dory, as playea by Mr. Charies Fisher, was a fair specimen of the rough oid sea-dog of the ancient days of te wooden walls of old England; aod Sim, a part entrusted to Mr. Williamson, was, both in dialect and acting, well played. The quiet and undemonstrative part of Lad Amaranth feil to the lot of Misa Louisa Moore, and she was equal w the task; while the volatile Eitie Germon gave as bappy ® Jane as could be desired, The revival of “Wiid Gats” may be considered a suc- cess; and, while making this announcement for the comedy, the acknowledgment may be made that tue orchestral selections of Baker evoked many cuils for repetitious from the audience. Nrei.o’s GARDEN.—It may be #aid with truth that few productions have on a first representation been attended with more unequivocal succesa than “Littie Em’ly.” Tae plot ts taken from “David Copperfield’ and adaptea to the stage by Andrew Halliday. With the exception that the dialogue needs a little trimming Mr. Halliday hag performed his share with credly Those who have read the stery have formed their own peculiar ideas ot the characters depicted. To some the per- sonation of the well known tndividuals described in the novei might doubtless have ap- peared quite natural; but others who have studied them, beheld them im every day experience, might pepe have noticed a slight exaggeration. How- it the crowded audience was intensely gratified ? Nor was the favorable impression more attributable to the artists than the splendid scenic effects which were brought into requisition. In a word, the mounting of the piece was superb, and dosery- edly elicited,the unanimous approvation of a thor- oughly appreciative wudience, Although the willin’ Barkis was omitted, the other prominent parts of the eventful tale were happily presented. And first of ail comes the patient, hopeful, bali hater, irrepres- sible Micawber, which was sustained by Mr. George Boniface—an actor, by the way, of considerabie talont apd accomplishmenta—with that dash and comprehensiveness that most uumistaka- bly demonstrated his wonderful versatility thorough sppreciation of the famous ré.e, Mr. Boniface was periectiy at home, and his genial temperament was in perfect harmony with the oharacter he so adm! portrayed, ough not a character to win much favor from th nce— Rosa Varble, “an edge tool, always d: tg" — Misa Kate Newton, arrayea in a riate attire, most vividly presented the Wwoued whose love, ke heat of a burning lmekiin, was not demonstrative yet powerfal and dan, The hate ana yon of scorn and venomous re; h which she exhibited to the artless, truthful uw Emily (Miss Ione Burke) were most artis conray ea. ‘Thon there were tel (Mr. L, R, well); Ham (afr, RG igs); Uriah Heep (Mr. Felix A.

Samana, Dec, 16, 1869, ‘The Stars and Stripes are Noating to-day over the Gibraltar of the Antilles, in token and testimony of sovereign possession. Leaving to other pens the de- tails of the brief but impressive ceremony of assum- ing dominion m the name and behalf of the United ‘States, let us take a rapid survey of our new acqui- Bition. -PIRST IMPRESSION, Entering the Bay of Samana with the United Sta’ steamer Albany, whose commander, Captain Georg: B. Balch, had the pleasaut charge of planting the Flag of the Union on this latest addition to tts terrt- tory, along succession of bold and verdant heights charm the eye by their varied and romantie beauty. Deep coves, each @ fine harbor in itself, indent and divide into picturesque promontories these loltyand rounded hills, and back of them tower, like giant sentinels on eternal guard over this outpost of American supremacy In the Antilles, the mountains of Pilon and Diavolo, the one pearly 2,000 feet, the other fully 1,800 feet in height, and torming striking landmarks for the mariner, The soft climate, which “has no winter in its year,’ and the never fading veraure, always glowing with the rich tints and breathing the sweet fragrance of rosy June, lent a finishing charm to the enchanting effect of the Deautiiul landscape. To one fresh from the leafiess drearmess of Northern coast scenes in November this delicious atmosphere and lavish variety of graceful forms and vivid colors was like @ vision of Arcadia, ana a closer observation only serves to confirm the impression that Sawana will soon become a favorite resort for invalids and pleasure hunters fleeing from the cold , ‘and windy rigors of a northern winter. The placid Day, with its winding shores and numerous islands offer eloquent invitation to boating, bathing and fishing parties, NUMEROUS HAVENS. ‘The bay shore of Samana is so rich tn fine ahel- tered coves, protected by boldly projecting head. lands, that the Dominicans love to say that “every farmer in Samana may have a good seaport of his own;” but there are several of such marked excel- lence that they demand special notice. We are no sooner fairly within the bay, with its enclosing shores visibly definea on both sides from the deck of @abip, than the port of Cacao rounds back into an tmyiting sweep under the commanding heignts of the same name, on which the Spaniards, during their Jast ocoupation, had traced out the pian of a strong fortiication, ‘A battery and # monitor would hold this point, protec the bay and keep oat the whole fleet of Spain,” said an oficer of rome ex- perience not long since, when dilating on the value of this outpost to American progress; but be did not state the number and calivre of the guns of the pro- posed battery. Passing Cacao and leaving behind the ‘‘coal depots" of former negotiations, another beautitul cove opens to view, having Punta del Serio (Lily Point) as its western arm of demarcation. This is the Carenero Chiquito, a famous and favorite resort of pirates in the reign of the buccaneers in these seas for the repair of their vessels. Henve its name of Carouero—careening place. Between Punta Serio ahd Punta Garda sets pack the deep, well sheltered aud easily defended inlet which General (then Major) McCletlan selected for a United States naval station. A cay, or inlet, off the entrance of this inner bay is calied—and the bay Awelf a8 well—Carenco Grande, which the Spaniards used asa coal depot, and protected bya battery, which vanished with them. Passing Punta Gurda, with the Paloma islet on tue other hand, we come suddenly on the town of Santa Barbara, the capital, so tospeaX, of the Pentn- suia of Samana. It is a sagging village, built too MIGNON the crescent of low ground at the edge of thebay, but it bas a pretty tree-embowered elect when geen from the bay, a8 many cottages, sur- rounded by iruit trees, have been planted on the hill sides, and seem to look cosliy out on tle spars- Ung waters, the bright little islands and the lon enibracing arms Of their own bay shores with dreamy satisfaction, Beyond Sania Barbara are several othor fine coves, of which those of Capuza and Oorozo are sa much distinguished for tueir heaithy position and erystal springs as for their safe and commodious landing places, EXLENT OF CESSION. The territory ceded to the United States may ve stated in round numbers as averaging etyht nilles in breadth by @ length of nearly thirty mules. The area has been variously estimated at from 225 to 240 square miles—ihe hatter calculation including the isiands along the coast, Counting in some superior landing places ou thexe Islands, which the Spaniards vaiued Very highly as general depots, the peninsula of Samana has a seaboard line of neariy 100 miles, presenting a series of good harbors that can scarcely be matched in any sinilar space in ali tropical Ame- rica for the general service of our growing trade, Our pew dowain is so nearly an island that up to the close of the last century coasting craft passed jrom Samane Bay to the Atlantic through the Gran Estero, at the head of what has become a peninsula by the Gling up of the channels which formeriy tra- versed the low isthmus now conuecting it with the main island. This isthmus is about five miles acrogs, and forms the western himit of Samana, and oné who knew how sucn things are done declares that two companies from any Of our colored regiments would reopen the channel in one season if commanded by Su ofiicer of the engineer corps, and so complete the water boundary of our new Possession, besides cutting off ninety miies of pavi- betes aronnd the peninsula ior vessels from the una region, bound to Puerto Mata or Monie Criati. The river Yona fails into the head of Samana bay and the side channels of its delta interlace with the outlet of the oid canal wacks thai tormeriy cut through the isthmus and brought the navigation of that river and one of the most lertiie districts in the Antilles directly to @ port on the Atlantic. Witiun teu miles of this delta, down the bay, the much de- bate: formations of Samana crop out tn numer- ous pli but they seem to have never nad a care- fui scientific examination. SOIL AND PRODUCTION. For its limited extent the country presents a great diversity of teature and a large range of production. A gd of bis run down the ceutre of the penin- sula from west to east, growing more sharp and loity as it nears and ita Barbara, until it finally culminates in the two great moun- tain peaks before named of El Diavolo aud Pion, From these hills tesue gbunde- ant springs of purest water, and there are fow asses Sant indeed, 80 od as not to produce full crops of iruit aud fee, The rapid and hardy growth of Umes and oranges astonishes even those familiar luxuriance of tropical vegetation. It would be @ superior orchard that would yield as many bushels of Bpplos to the acre as the same area in Samana will produce of oranges.
