; - MOTION POEMS. Licderkranz at the Academy. MASKS, MUSIC AND MERRIMENT, —>—_———— The B P.O. Elks in a Forest of Fes- tivity at Irving Hall. ‘Tho vicinity of Irving place and Fourteenth sircet Jaat night presented a seene of bustle and briliiancy. Calcium jighis threw their rays tar and wide and scores of carriages moved along in a seemingly endless procession, Along the adjoining avenues were thronged vehicles of every kind, and at the Irving place and Fourteenth sircet entrances to the opera house stalwart policemen were on guurd. A crowd of curious lookers on, who did not cure for going to the ball but who were desirous to see the people that went, congregated outside the Academy. It was a motley crowd, not tuch as probably the Liederkrauz Society would desire to see, | ova pedestal » floral type of the wild and rukish look- as a body of critics, tu pass judgment on the costumes und appearance of their guests. The remarks on the masks that stepped trom the carriages were peculiar | weous looking cavalier of the | A yor aud various. “Trois Mousquetulres” pattern jumped out of @ cer | ino different theatres of the city. The music was by rlage, never thinking of the treacherous bills of irozen slugh that lay between him and the sidewalk, But they thopght of bLim and insisted upon mak- ing bis personal acquaintance, The result was a fall ond a laugh om the part of the motley throng around, One gentleman advised the unlucky cavaller to take a reef in bis hat and feather, and another kindly suggested that the amateur U’Ar- tugoan should not mix bis drinks. Tue discussion came to an end when the cavalier was ussisted to bis feet by Marie Stuart, and rece:ved a lecture of the most emphatic kind from the fair representative of the ill-tuted Queen of Scots, PRINCE CARNIVAL'S COURT. Within the walls of the Academy the scene was one of fairyland. ‘be lobbies were cosmopolitaa ia their mask attractions, The house was resplendent with decorations of the choicest kind, and the Dall opencd with ail the glitter upd dazzle of the court of Princo Carnival, 11 was a court that represented very extraordinary combinations of types Abd churacters. Here was Marguerite, the mild Gretchen of Goethe, flirting with General Brown, and a Capucin monk whispering soft. nousenso in the ear ofadebardeur. A Greek pirate was sandwiched be- tween 4 Queen of Night and Meg Merriles, and a Rus- siun bear sat dowr in a box with a little fairy ‘mn gauze and spangles. Beneath the war paint aud ommous trappings of a Sioux chief was Biscovered the face of one of the jolliest members pf the society, and Uncle Sam, iu the traditional and impossible dress ascribed to him by caricaturists, spoke the most unadulterated German that was ever heard beyond the Rhine, But on the floor, among the masks, Waguer was predominant. There were more Branuildes than Wotan wouid ve willing to acknowl- edge, and the Jupiter of Walhalla hunself bad representatives, Sieztried fared badly hands of a cunaumptive looking Warrior, who looked as if the ball was vou much for him. There were R:enzis, Lobengrius, Tunvhaurers aud three Flying Dutchmen. One of the latuer Was very demonstrative avd attempted to make w speech, which was promptiy quelled by Leah, the Forsaken, whow he lad taken to the ball, A meek- eyed uun' brought General Boum, figuratively speak- aug, Ly the eur to the supper room, When the vouguty soldier wauted tv dance *Justone more round,” THE SCRNH AT MIDNIGHT, As the hours fle y the tun became infectious, Everybouy caug’t 1.

Between the years 1821 and 1826 he passed through the several grades to that of Heutenant, and was engagod in special service in charge of charts and ine struments: iD Mis high ~~ professional attainments and his skill as an astronomer gained bin great credit, and be was charged with the making of several surveys of the coast which he successfully executed. But the most famous of his eurly serv'ces was the exploration of the South Seus, the Pacific Archipelago and the Indian Ocean, by | which he gained u name for daring and skili which is avcond to that of no other navigator. In bis narra- 9 of the expeditions under bis command, entitlod “The United States Exploring Expeditions During the Yeurs 1838 to 1842,” iu dve volumes, he made some valuable additions to the literature of geography and écionce, His work on ‘Meteorology’ 1s regarded one of the moat valuable treatises on that subject, Dur- ing ithe year 1849 Commander Wilkes published in Puiladelphia an account of his observations in Califor- nia and Oregon andor the titie of “Western America,” octavo, be still being employed in the Expeditionary | Bureau; and when the navy wus increased under the act of 1855 ne was promoted to the rauk of captain, with @ commission dating [rom September | 14th, During gext year, 1856, he pubusbed in | New York his ‘!heory Upon the Winds,” and was en- gaged upon other works in connection with his bureau when the robellion broke out, He then applied for active service, was appointed to the command of the war steamer San Jacinto and ordered to, the Weat Indies for the purpose of looking after tho rebel privateer Sumter. Whilo on this ata- tion Captain Wilkes, on November 8, 1861, stopped the British mail steamer Trent, while on her voyage to England, and forcibly removed thereirom Messrs. Mason and Slidell, the Commissioners from the re- beilious States to Knglaad and France, comveying thera as prisoners to Boston, His course of action was loudly applauded by the people, and be was made the recipient of u publi banquet at Boston and an ovation in New York. Although Congress conferred upon him a vote of thanks, his actions were formally but not heartily disapproved by the Presideut, and the captives subsequently banded over to England, under a ban of expatriation. When tho navy was reorganized in 1862 tain Wilkes was promoted to the rank of Commouore, avd placed in command of the Jumes River fleet. Congress subsequerly confirmed the “ppointment, to date from July 16, 1862, but juced him’ on the retired list. Later in that year @ was appointed acting rear admiral, and assigned to the command of a special Wost Indian squad- Ton, for the tection of commerce, bis flag veing hoisted over the steamship Vanderbilt. While in this command he eflectod the capture of several blockade runners, including the English vessel Poterhoil. He subsequently went in chase of the pirate Shenandoub, but did not succeed in overtaking her, returning home during June, 1863, when he was reiteved of bis com? mand. was his last sea service. He was com- missioned as rear admiral on the retired list July 25, 1866. 2 OLIVER 8 CHAPMAN, Oliver S, Chapman, of Cavton, Mase, a well-known railroad contractor, and for some time u director of the Union Pucific Railroad, fell dead at Boston ina Wash- ington street store yer ‘day morning.
