NEW YORK HERALD, TUESDAY, JANUARY 9, 1872.—TRIP, WASHINGTON, CONGRESS BACK FROM THE HOLIDAYS, Fenton and Schurz After Grant and Murphy. The Cuban Resolution and the De- mocracy in the House. Pho Syndicate and Pereentage on Engrav- ing and Issuing Expenses. sy WASHINGTON, Jan. 8, 1672. : fhe Sennte’» First Duy After the Recese— Schurz Bitterly the Defensive—Fenton ee) After Murphy. "The Senatorial “Temple of the Winas” wore a peculiarly dreary aspect to-day, except while Mr. ohurz replied to certain newspaper sacs Ca him- self. At noon the faith’ savel feli, apa tne chap- ain was duly inarttul in sounding platitudes, while ‘the clerk vas unusually dull in tedious journal P atid ‘The galleries wore a dreary look, and Sen- rs appeared bored except while the German Senator, in stinging sentences, replied to bis assail- mts, Mr. Schurz had read an article charging ‘hat his hostility to the Executive was caused ty failure to obtain oMcesy and that he remained longer in the army than other major generals of volunteers; that he wanted his relatives appointed to important places, and other oharges of a similar character. ‘The Senutor’s man ner was a study of cool and caustic denunciation ‘and sarcasm. He took up tLe charges seriatim, To some his reference was through the famous Saxon word “‘lie;” to other statements he gave brief expianation, and wound up by declaring that ‘the article was a first class specimen of cumulative, {mtrepid and shameless lying. The half hour spent 4m these exercises furnished an interesting interlude. Then, after Mr. Sumner had brought up his usual batch of petitions from colored friends and ad- mirers, Mr. Fenton moved to lay aside informally the order of the day and take up bis bill regulating the customs service, The Amnesty bill was tne ‘erder to be so laid aside, and it was well under- stood that Mr. Fenton only desired his bill to be brought in as a stalking-horse for a speech against Murphy and the Custom House. Senators were willing to extend the desired courtesy. Mr. Fen- ton got the floor. At half-past two the Senate went into executive session and remained with closed @oors ti!) three, when it adjourned, The House Aftcr the Holidays—Crowds of Bills and Resolusionsa—The Iucome Tax. Instead of an exciting and lively opening of Con- gress after the recess, which was generally ex- pected, it was an exceedingly dull affair, There was scarcely & quorum present in che House, and the members were sleepy and seemed not to have Tully recovered from the New Year's festivities, The rotund reading clerk, Clisbie, has returned, hale and hearty, to his monotonous tones and the daily Junch he carefully pro vides and stows away in the frawer of his desk. He 1s a good eater as well as qweader, and, like Olver Twist, always feems to want more. Under the call of Mates and Territories thirty-six bills and joint Wesolutions and a large number of private bills for relief, &c., were introduced and referred, Mr. Cox, the irrepressible member from New York, managed to eject a stump specch into the preamble of a joint resolution recognizing the belligerency of Cuba in her war with Spain, which, Sogether with the resolution, was referred to the Dommittee on Foreign Affairs. Mr. Monroe, of Ohio, introduced a bill to prevent the circulation of Spurious and counterfeit national bank notes, also B dil to repeal the tax on lucifer gnd iriction matches. Mr. Kerr, of Indiana, wanted to give to persons restrained of their hberty 3o appeal to the Supreme Court of the Unitea States from the judgment of any other Court, The Ku Klux act seems to have modified whe views of the strict construction school, ‘™r. Kerr among others. Mr. Chipman, Territorial @elegate from the District of Columbia, calied upun ahe President for information in his possession rela- dive to a new jail for the District and of the capacity sf the old one. This is looked upon as an inquiry in the right direction, as this uncivil institution has Jong been a disgrace to the national capital. The House resumed consideration of the resolution pierea by Mr. Kellogg, of Connecticut, the Mon- ay before recess, instructing the Committee on ‘Ways and Means to report a bi!l for the repeal of the ‘come tax. Mr. Dawes asked for a square vote, so that the committee might be instructed as to the sense of the House. This was re. fected by a vote of 71 yeas to 81 nays, Mr. Hale, of Maine, endeavored to obtain immediate action on a bill relieving all shipbuild- 4ng materials used in construction of American vessels of import duties, and moved to suspend ‘the rules for that purpose, Pig iron being in dan- ger, Mr. Kelly made the point of order that no no- woe Of the introduction of the bill had been given, which Mr. Hale denied. The motion to suspend ‘was lost, though receiving a majority vote. Mr. Dawes proposed to sena the bill to the Ways and Means Committee, which mr. Eldridge opposed, Saying it would be its grave. Holman, of Indiana, ‘Wanted the bil sent to the Commerce Committee, end a sharp wranglo ensued, but Dawes ‘Was the victor, Mr. Sldcum, of New York, wanted to know if it was in accordance ‘With roles of the Civil Service Commission for Custom House and omer government officials to absent themselves from their daties and go to Albany for the purpose of influencing political action. Butler, of Massachusetts, objected to this inquiry, and it was not entertained. Mr. Upson, of Ohio, wanted instructions given in regard to civil -wervice reform, that tho States be represented in the Gifferent departments of the government in pro- portion to their populations, as clerks, and that persons having rendered service to the couutry as goldiers, if competent, should be preferred. Mr, Poland, of Vermont, desirous of having things done properly and in order, oftered @resolution requiring ali inquiries for information aud investigation fo be first referred to a committee for a report upon the propriety for such call for information, which resolution was sent tothe Com- mittee of Rules. Mr. Moore, of Iilinols, wanted the Judiciary to inquire whether the Atchison and Pike's Peak or the St. Joseph and Denver Ratlroad ‘Was entitied to patent for lands originally granted to the first road. Mr. Wood charged fraud, and @aid this was the road in which aSenator from Kansas was interested. ‘The discussion was sharp. ‘Mr. -Shellabarger thought the issues technical as to be government and vital only to the interested companies, when Mr. Farnsworth suggested that meither party was entitled to the land. The resolu- ‘Mon passed, @ox’s Cuban Resolution—A Democratic War cry. Mr. Cox's resolution on Cuban recognition 1s sup posed to repregent the dominant senument of the country, and democratic members of the House Apsist that it shall be incorporated in the democratic Of the next canvass. In substance It is as Souows:—The preamble states that the inhabitants ofa portion of the kingdom of Spain, to wit, the island of Cuba, have been waging war agaist Spain Sor their independence for a period of more than ‘bree years, the existence of which war mas been and is acknowledged by Spain 4m sundry public acts anda documents; that uring this war Spain has en allowed toanpply her armies and navy from’ the factories, ‘lock yards and arsenals of this country with every material requisite of warfare; while the Qubans, in irect opposition to a fair spirit of neutrduty, lave been denied similar advantages in regard fo ves- sels freighted with arms and ammunition dessined for the Cubans, in accordance with the legal rigut ‘of American citizens to trade 10 arms with peoples and Powers who are at war, in the exercise of what has been deciarea by the Exeoutive and & federal Court to be & legitimate voyage, Which ves- eely have, in violation of law and equity, been detained and subjected to de we hy Rasa perversion gf jvstioa to ™e detriment of the interests of American citl- zens; that measures should be adopted to protect ‘Uhe rights and interests of American citizens en- gaged in legitimate commerce, and to prevent the recurrence of loses which may arise from the fact that this government has not yet acknowledged the existence of the republic of Cuba, and that a ma- jority of the independent republics of this bemis- phere have recognized the belligerency of Cuva, which acts have tacitly been admitte? by Spain to be not incompatible with a syritof amity toward spain; that Spain herself, be acknowledging the independence of sundry republics on this Continent, once her colonies, has acknowiedged the rights they had to wage war for thelr independence, as Cuba is to-day Mghting for, hers; that, by the principles of international law, an inherent rght js vested in wie sovereignty of every independent nation to declare, when convenient, the existence of belligerency between any other nations or between the inhabitants of any integral portion of any such nation, and that the rendering assistance to all peoples struggling in this hemi- sphere for the rights of self-government by all just means not in contravention of international law is @ thorough American policy consonant with the principles on which our own independence is based, The resolution provides for the recognition of a state of war between the kingdom of Spain and the so-called republic of Cuba, and declares both par- tes to the confict entitled to the rights conceded to belligerents by international law. Movements of the President. President Grant and family and Secretary Bout- well arrived here im the five P, M. train to-day. A Suspicioun Syndicate Section. Secretary Boutwell has addressed a letter to Mr. Garfield, a8 Chairman of the Committee on Appro- priations, enclosing the following additional section to the General Appropriation bill, the report of which he asks from the commitree:— ‘The expenses of loang, legal tender notes, frac- tloual currency, checks, certificates, stamps, com- missions and other plate and seal engraving ana printing required- by the Treasury Department, in- cluding issues and transfers, delivery, redemption and destraction of securities, shall be paid from and shall not exceed the appropriation of one per cent on the amount of legal tenders, fractional currency and securivies issued and redeemed during the fiscal year. Mr. Boutwell stated that Mr. Saville, Chief Clerk of the Treasury, would appear if required before the Committee, and fully explain the purpose of the proposed section. There is considerable doubt ex- pressed as to the meaning of this proposition. By some itis charged that its design 1s to enable the Secretary to meet the real cost of negotiating with the Syndicate, which it 1s believed has largely ex- ceeded the limit of one-half of one per cent allowed by tho Funding law. Under the operation of auch @ section it is affirmed that Mr. Boutwell might be able, through the sub-treasuries and depositories and friendly national banks, to renew the fractional currency afloat, amounting to avout fifty million dollars in itself, as often as the necessities of his funding operations might require. This would give him $600,000 for syndicate -purposes on each renewal. Add to this the per- centage that might be squeezed irom renewais of legal tenders, three per cent certificates and the various Classes of bonds which fall due and are called in‘or exchanged during the fiscal year. It is not believed outside of the Secretary’s office that any such shrewd but objectionable scheme as this can pass, and Mr. Boutwell will have to face the music on the operations and expenses of his syndicate scheme, Senatorial Confirmations, The Senate this afternoon confirmed the following nominations:— Patrick Sinnot, Indian Agent, Grand Road-Agency, Ore- gon; Robert G. Stewart, iver of Public Money at Ulym, pa, Washinsto itoty; Alfred E. Shannon, of Nevada, Register of the Land Offie, Austin, Nevada; John M. Burn: ham, Postmaster, Hartford, Conn,; Horace 0. Lee, Post- master, Springfield, Mass, ; James W. Paterson, Postmaster, Humboldt, Kansas; Christopher F. Goffin, Postmaster, Mad! son, Ind. ; George 'E. Wentworth, Postmaster, Pensacola, Fla.; T.B, Odeneal, Superimtendent of Indian Affairs for Oregon, vice Meacham, removed; Lewis B. Hrasher, of Ohio, Register of the Land Office in Pembina district, 'Da- Kota; N. Hi. Rawlings, Register of the Land Ofice in Cau. den, Ark.; Rev, Jobn Forsythe, D. D., ot New York, Chaplain’ and Professor of Ethics and Law at the Millt Aeatemy; Major, Junius B. Wheeler, ol the Corpa of Engl neers, to be Professor of Civil and Military Engineering, vice Mohan, feceasca. The Senate also confirmed graduates of the Mili- tary Academy ,to be Second Lieutenants. Among zi the right-| them was Cadet Frederick D, Grant, to be Second Lieutenant, vice Pierce, deceased, in the Fourth regiment of cavalry. Civil Service Reform. The Civii Service Advisory Board to-day con- sidered the subject of examination in various parts of the country for vacancies occurring in the execu. tive departments at Washington, the plan under consideration being the examination by committees deputed by the Board, instead of compelling the applicants to be present in this cily for such examination, A Western member of Congress several days ago Applied at the Post Office Department to havea route agent appointed, but was informed that it was necessary that the applicant for the place should first pass an examination and be endorsed by the Civil Service Board. The response to this ‘was that the applicant could not pay the expense of a Journey to Washington and return, and besides it ‘was uncertain Whether he would even in that case be appointed. Asa route agent was actually neces- sary, one has been temporarily employed until the Board shall afford relief in the premises, It 1s sup- posed that the Board will adopt a new rule pro- viding in certain contingencies for examinations in distant localities where such appointments operate. Kline’s Cotson (Claim. The Court of Claims reassembled to-day, and after deciding some preliminary motions took up the cott©n case of John A. Kline, administrator, on motion for a new trial, the case having already been appealed to the Supreme Court, where it is now pending. It involves an amount of over one hupared aud twenty-five thousand dollars, but is chiefly of importance because in its decision by the Supreme Court is involved the question of the constitutionality of the so-called Drake amendment relating to the effect of the Presidential amnesty, on which depend about one hundred other cases, Involving in the aggregate an amount of several million dollars, The argument on the motion fora new trial in the Qourt of Vlaims was to-day finished, when the Court adjourned until to-morrow, Moulton and Wachtel Warbling for Wash- ington. Mrs. Moulton's first concert here was an immense success, The President, {amily and whole corps diplomatique were present. Wachtel made his first appearance in Washing- the opera of ‘Il Trovatore.”’ His singing elicited extraordinary enthusiasm, which has rarely veen equalled in thig city, and the performance was a great success, Our Relations with “pain, (From the Baltimore American, Jan, 8.)

The Prisoner and Her Friends Becoming Melancholy. ANXIOUSLY AWAITING THE END. Drs. Byrd and Goolrick Confirm the Previous Testimony that General Ketchum ” Died, of Natural Cause, Anticipations of Closing the Trial This Week. ANNAPOLIS, Md., Jan. 8, 1872, ‘The same little cah, with its half-starved horses and funny-looking negro driver, that comes each day to convey Mrs, Wharton and her daughter from the Jatl to the court room and back, again drew up before the front door of the prison house this morn- ing at ten o’clock. A moment later the prisoner and her daughter came down the front steps of the jail, accompanied by Miss Rosa Neilson, entered the carriage and a few moments after were seated with- 4m the bar at the Court House, in rear of those three men who are her defenders in this struggle for Mie, Mrs, Wharton-seemed much more depressed than ever before since the trial began, probably on account Of the terrible bereavement that had come to one of the wwelve men who were to be her liberators or ex- ecutioners. She appeared to watch every movement of Mr. Beard, the juror who lost his wife on Friday, a3 he sat bowed down with the weight of his grief; her eyes would fill with tears, and it was piainly Visible that in the midst of her own sufferings she ‘Was mindful of the misfortunes of others, The same little knot of constant friends that have ever been by her side since the trial began were with Mrs, Wharton as usual, but Miss Nelle and all of the mtie «group seemed to share the {feel- mg of depression that made’ her more sorrowfu) than before. The day was gloomy and the attendance by no means as large as on previous occasions; the ladies especially did not manifest their usual interest in the trial. Some new nd very pretty faces were observavle, however, and the masses were in strong force outside the railings. One idea very forciuly strikes the least cultivated and sensitive mind upon entering the court room at Annapolis—this morning included, It is the appearance of loneliness that surrounds the prisoner. Not that she has no friends, lor she has many and 1s gaining more every day, but that little melancholy group about her in the court room is her whole world, and sae ¢annot now go out from them, except in thought, to ber many other friends, and tne great thinking, reasoning masses that are fast becoming ner friends. She must remain with this liutie group, for how iong no one can tell, and at times even tls family 1s cut down, and only mother and daugiter left to mingle their tears together, alone. it 18, Ine deed, a lonely situation. Public upinion is pro- verbially obstinate, and the accumulated evidence of the past few «daysis very slowly wearing away the impressions which were created by the case of the State. ‘Ihe evidence for the defence 13 in- creasing in strength as day after day ig added to the number already consumed by the trial. The chemical testumony on the part of the State having been disposed of, and the Penrose of poison in the stomach of Genefal Ketchum having been almost demonstrated Py that very able scientific expert, Dr. Warren, elr testimony has been followed up by the expe- rience of physicians of national reputation, whose conclusions upon the symptoms presented to them have all tended to estaplish the opinion expressed by Dr. Warren, that the General died of cerebro- se meningitis. All the other eushisious circum: stances are rapidly disappearing before the sledge- hammer blows administered by the defence, and there is now little room to doubt the result. The Court convened this morning an hour later than usual on account of the absence of Chief Jus- lice Miller, who went to Baltimore to spend Sunday, At eleven o’clook the three Judges ascended the bench and the crier opened the Court in due form. All the counsel for both sides were present, but @ feeling of gloom seemed to pervade the entire court room on account of the bereavement that had come to one of the jurors. CONTINUATION OF DR, BYRD'S TESTIMONY. Dr. Harvey L. Byrd took the stand upon the calling of the Court, and resumed his testimony, which was begun on Friday last. He said:— ‘The absence of urinary seoretion was a very important sympton as fndicatlug cerebro-apinal meninglt's, as also’ 10 many diseases which terminated fatally, but it was not an indication that tartar emetic was present. Dr. Byrd was ing his opinion upon the hypothetical case which was ted to him on Friday by the counsel for the defence, “He id there were certain symptoms common to a number of seases, when they rin parallel with each other, but little importance can be attached to them individnaily; but where there ind to exist others of a marked © eter the physician is at once enabled to form opinions as to the existence of particular diseases, Vomiting occurs in cerebro sp!nal-meningitia, also in tartar emeth stiffening is a feature of both conditions, Heres a parallel, but there are c vell marked and distinctive differ. ences. ‘Pake the sk: instance. In sickness trom tartar emetic the skin 1s in a state of ansesthesia; in cerebro-spinal meningitis it Is in a siate of excitability or irritability. The Kidneya in tartar emetic act with great rapidity and the w- nary secretion js rapidly increased; in cerebro-eplaal menin- gitis it is suspended. In cases of cerebro-spinal meningitis, which had come under his own observation, there in addition to rigidity an increased tendency im of one side, bending the body to one this he noticed in the tour cases to which he had already referred; the disease caused the patients to throw themselves to one side; the above, viz, the condition of the a 6 rigniity of the aystem, the bending of the body to uspension of urinary accretion were the lim to the conclusion that General erebro-spinal meningitis rather than tat me to the conclusion that he did not die of made a statement in regard to the effects of said that all medicines were poisons, judiciously “used to affect. a cer: tain organ, and whether hyperdermically, cally or " epidermically used, would ‘seek — the organ for which they were Intended; the tendency of. tartar emetic in Improper doses was to produce ulceration or abra. sion of the mucous membrane, or coating of tue stomach: In the hypothetical case about which he was testifying {ere was no evidence of such abrasion or destruction of the mu- cous lining, nothing save the spots mentioned, and the spots did not indicate the effects of tartar emetic which had Leen taken for a long time; the want of lesions and the charac. teristic disturbance of the mucous membrane was strong evidence to his mind of the absence of tartar emetic; the postmoriem examiuxtion revealed nothing upon which @ could rely, and scarcely anything which he would not expect to Bed in any otnee case of death from natural causes; symptoms whicis were extraord regarded the case as anomalous; igen ary, and,on the whole, ie and, e whole, he he did riot know any other ave cercbro-spinal meningitis, which combined all the symptoms described in this case; some of them were ob- servable in tetanus, or lockjaw, some others in remittent fever or smallpox, bot he did not know any disease which the symptoms so nearly suited as cerebro pinal meningitis; uindred diseases, OURT. r to the State for xamination, but before Mr. Syester took him in hand bief Justice sald to the defence that he wished to explain the ruling ot the Court on.

Upon cross-examination the witne that hie personal experience of cerebro-spinal meningitis ex- tended to four cases which be had attended in Southern hospl- tals, to two of which he was called after the disease had gained some headway, and In two of the cases he was sum- moned at their very inception. ‘There must be two or more cases followed by tudden death before the disease can Ve re- garded as epidemf. Had he not known that the dis ease was epidemic at the time he was summoned to tho above, he should have imagined that tetanus was present; in his opinion General Ketchum’s case was not of the fulminant or explosive form. Dr. Byrd here took occasion to say that {t gave him great pleasure to uphold his brother physicians in any course pursued by them when {t was proper, and ho considered the treatment of General Ketchum by Dr. Wil- Hams as judicions. The administration of both medicines, ebioral and gelsemnium, was perfectly proper. He atso said he desired to be properly reported, as he expected to yo into history in connection with this ease, Mr. SYESTER odserved that he did not think the testimony would do any of them mueh good or much harm as far ag history was concerned, Dr. BYRD was examined at some length by the State. He corroborated his testimony in chief and accounted for ¥ “ppearances which General Ketcbum’s stomach may have presented of irritation, og the fact that indigestible maiter of any description might have produced such a result.

THE COAL STRIKE. Meeting of Miners—The Situation—Feeling Among the Men—What They Intend to Du—The Strike Not General. WILKESBARRE, Jan 8, 1872, During the past week there has been consider- able excitement among the miners in this quarter, occasioned by the stand taken by the Wilkesbarre Coal and Iron Company toward the men im their employ. Meeangs and conferences have been numerous, but nothing had been done to bring about harmony at tne Empire mines or between the individual operators and their miners. Matters, however, have assumed a terrible shape, and the extent of the struggle and its cause has been de- fined. On Saturday afternoon there was a large meeting of miners in this city. Some 600 men assembled, the occasion being the awnual election of oficers of District No. 12 of the W. B, A., embracing the men employed by Mr. Charles Parr: After the 1 nstal- lation of W. H. Carl as President and w. EB, Howells as Secretary a general discussion of the condition of the trade was entered upon, The pro- position of Mr. Charles Parrish to reduce the rate of wages ten per cent was under consideration and subjected to a most searching investigation. Upon the question belng put as to whether the proposition should be accepted the vote stood very close, only: about twenty majority beng given wo reject the offer of the operators. The feeling among those present was extremely cordial, and the entire district will be governed by the action of the majority, ‘The men are willing to make a conces- sion 80 far as this:—At present they are working upon a $6 basis, from which Mr. Parish demands a reduction Of ten per cent, and to this pro ition the miners pecaie They will agreo, to allow c to fall to 50 an accept @ reduction of six and a half per cent Wnen it does so. They want some show under a sliding scale as coal goes in the market. Mr. Parrish ‘urges an arbitrary reduction of ten per cent, with- out regard Lo the price of coal. lo has declared an intention to “ight his men square on this issue,?? and the probabilities are that his works will remain idle for some tame to come THE SITUATION 1s this:—Under the jurisdiction of the Wilkesbarre Coal ana Iron Company ate coal works extending from New York to this city. The men of these mines are embraced in nine districts of the U. B. A., the largest of which and the controlling in- fluence 1s No. 12, the meeting of which on Saturday has already been alluded to, The miners are dis- playing considerable policy in their movements this time, The action of Mr. Parrisn renders it necessary lor all the individual operators to stand by him in the demand for a reduction of wages, as their interests are mutual. It has been arranged that di¢ricc No. 12 shail only participate in the con- vest which has been inaugurated, that organization being the largest and most able to stand tae brunt of the battle, All the men, therefore, with the exception of those engaged at the Empire mines, continue at work with an assurance of re. ceiving the wages fixed upon when the irial of en- durance between Mr. Parrish and his men comes to an end. THE EFFECT. This mode of settling the question may be less objectionable than a general strike, but the fight will be more or less demoralizing to the men and business generally and may lead to trous re- sults belore it 18 ended. The men are in good spirits and exilbit a good deal of determination to hola out. THE, GRAND COUNCIT, The Grand Council of Miners mets at Mahanoy city to-morrow, and the complication in this city will come before that body. The meeting will be an important one, but no general suspensions will be ordered. The great body of miners are opposed to @ revival of the scenes of last winter and spring. A general suspension js not necessary at this tim and the Council will not dare assame such a fearful responsibility as that step Would entail upon each every member Of it. THE AMERICUS BALL. Immense Gathering of the Beauty and Fashion of PhiladelphineThe Great Social Event of the Season. PHILADELPHIA, Jan. 8, 1872, ‘The Americus Club ball, the event of the season in Philadelphia occurred at the Academy of Music to-night. It has been the boast of this clubin former years that their annual balls werein point of numbers, style and general excellence the affair par excellence of the year, and their boast has not been without foundation, This year the Grand Duke’s ball stirred them to renewed efforts, It was the intention of the committees to surpass that grea’ event, aud In some particulars they have succeeded, Floral decorations, blooming exotics and evergreens were supplied with a lavish hand, shedding a radiant beauty and filling the vast audi- torium With a delicate perfume whose iragrance stole upon the senses and Aled the air with the very essence of Flora’s choicesi gilts, There were more people present than there were at the Duke’s ball, and the absence of all formality lent an additional charm to the occasion, ‘The singing birds of Tammany and their golden cages were not a partot the graceful music and ornamentation of this affair, but the crash of the music from Beck's, Hasaler’s, Sentze’s and McClurg's bands filled the hall with a melody that answered ali the purposes of the pleasure-seeking throng. At nine o'clock the grand orchestra, under the leadership of Professor Hassler, struck up Asner’s Polonaise March, The floor was quickly flea with Americuses and their fair charges, and the ball was taiely. opened. Every seat in the upper circle was filled with representative beauties of the Quaker City, accompaaled by ther guaraians, and the scene from the improvised fuwer len at the Tear of the stage was at ouce beautiful and brilliant, ‘There were about six thousand people reece amoug thei leading representatives of the bar an jJearned professions.
