The cotillion party given by the Social Club
at the Odeon on Tuesday evening last, went
off with so much eclat, hilar,y, proprety, and
general satisfaction, that what was intended
as only an experiment, has been converted
mem. con. into the first of series of periodical
parties, 10 be managed and conducted in the
same manner, and particularly in the prohibi-
ton of nebriating drinks forming part Of the
refreshments furnished.


| Among so many of the charmed and charm
ing, il is invidious TO specify any; otherwise
names or initials might be stated and deserved
ly so. But notoriety no! being the object OF
these assemblages; harmless amusement and
healthfulexerciseu euncontaminated by spiituous
or fermented excessories being the points aim
ed at, aad in this first attempt, by the Club
above named, SO eminently attained individu-
ais need not be partculariZed. Suffice it to
were equally pleased, and that SO attractive
was the music and complete the arrangements
that they were productive of the only evil that
ensued, viz a continuance of the amusements
to rather TOO late hour Of the night One
might say


Rosy Morn snbarred her saffron portals
| For the late returning mortas, &c.


were il not that dark and dismal snow storm
loured over the commencement of the follow
ing day, and indisposes for poetic fights.


The absence.of alcoholic fumes, however,
leaves the brain undisturbed in the pursuit OF
customary vocations. Visions of grace, beauty,
and melodious harmony alone liDger in the
links OF memory, instead of the sickness follow
ing an excitement kept up by liquor and long
corked champagne, as is customary al other
balls and assemblies.


BENJAMIN YOU'VE, the individual stabbed on
Monday last in Walkers Refectory, is report
ed TO be in a dangerous situation. He was
stabbed with Spanish knife-such an one be-
ing found in the street short time after the
arrest OF the parties. We understand another
charge will be made against Robinson and
Hines for an assault upon Mrs. PEIrscH, at
the corner of Four-and-a street and Penn
sylvania avenue.

The first Lecture of course, to be delv-
cred in the street Baptist Church, will be
delivered on Friday evening next, by General
CAss.
